A question asked
It's not who I want to be
It's about you
Who you think I can be.

8bf0fccb-7216-44fe-996d-7abd899dc5b2.jpg

Does it matter who I want to be
What I Believe
Say
Stand for
What's om my mind?
Will you listen
If I speak
Say the truth
Lie

Is it important
Should I be honest
Can you live with the answer
Are you sure?

Don't ask
Questions
If you can't bear the answers
There's no reason to confirm
What you already know

No way I will change my mind
You can't build me out of the pieces
You collected from me

I am not Frankenweenie
Nor Sally or the Monster's Maid
I am the one you will never understand
The creator of the universe
The one who keeps alive

I live in everyone
But most within the one I love and care for

I am Instinct
The voice
The loudest
The survivor
Fighter
Hero

I am the dream
Creating
Keeping alive
Exist
Fight for
Justice
Love
Life

Very nice. Insightful. Heartfelt outpouring. The challenge is to balance internal and external. Minimizing external involvement as much as possible. At least that is what I am experiencing. There is a way to be involved in external affairs in such a way that they are transformed into or absorbed into the internal environment. Not sure I am expressing this so it can be understood. give a go anyway... Keep on. Lovely post. I hope it was alright... I posted a copy of this on my Facebook page.

Of course you can forward, copy where you like. If not I would not post it here.

I agree, to me external affairs are a heavy pressure I can't give into without losing me. I learned that instinct is the one I should follow not what they say or want.

I escaped 40 years ago to save my inner and although it was a hard fight, a struggle and hate was addressed to me and is till today this is the best I did for me.
Surrounded by nature is the best. People still cause me stress. So my contacts are limited, no visitors, I visit no one except for a friend once or twice a year.
Finding a balance is indeed a challange this way of living works best for mee.

My head is always busy and I'm never lonely.

I hope you find a blance too or at least have a way to protect yourself to all those external influences.

A great day with love and harmony to you
❤️🍀

I find myself in a very similar place. It suits me well. I think it is natural as someone ages. After all our time here is limited. Moving mountains around is alright if someone has that youthful energy... Superman (superwoman) but as the body ages the mountains get heavier and heavier. I find myself exploring inner space. A little white hair and a slower step lets others know it is alright if I don't jump into the three ring circus... Younger friends value what I share with them. As a loving caring friend. But yes who I let in is limited. I am happy to find you.

It is good to be slower.
If my phone gets frozen I wait. It's a good moment to do nothing and enjoy it. All the rushing brought me nothing and just like you I see my time precious because what is left I want to use as I like.

No need to cook, visit, do the groceries, wake up, set an alarm or jump if someone shouts. I have no bell at the front door since years, no tv, no radio and the sound of my ohone is switched off.

I don't know if the mountains are heavier. I believe it's more I don't see them as such. My view on life and people changed I go my way and fight if I think it's not right. Will I make any difference? As long as it does for me I'm okay with it and it gives energy.

I am happy I found you too. It's good to have you around.

The owls are right!
