"Beauty in Desolation"- The meaning of Life

in poetry •  7 years ago 

CC Martian Crater.jpg


Things may appear desolate,
Yet there is beauty in desolation.
What you see when you look around you is created by your
Expectations;
Change the way you look at things, and you
Will change the things you
see.
Even this Martian crater is beautiful,
In a stark and desolate way.
To a scientist,
It is Breathtakingly beautiful.
It is all in the things you
You have in your heart and mind when you look, that
Determines what you see when you look.
Look for the
Beauty,
And you will find it.
Look for horror and Ugliness, and
You will find that too.
There is a
Balance,
or there should be
Our world may
Be out of whack at the moment, but if you
Look for beauty and do not let the
Horrors Overtake Your Heart,
You will find peace.
Look for peace my friends, and
Find it in your hearts,
(remember, you
Create what you see with your own Expectations)

When you have
Created it in your heart, share it.
Share it, spread it around and
Give it away; there will be
Plenty to go around.

“Beauty In Desolation”

Thank you @dedysteemit

meaning of life and this poem can understand only those people who have humanity in them.You know i have lost my three months earning someone hacked my account and stole my all SBD.

No I did not know that @farah-kamran, how would I know that?
If this is true I am very sorry to hear this, I don't understand
How this is possible, or why someone would hack a small
(no offense) Minnow account. Did you report it to
Steemit abuse? If not, you should straightaway.

its my own mistake i would not trust on any third party website.

@farah-kamran here is the channel where you may get some help.
You may have to create an account if you've never been there before, I don't understand that
It didn't use to be that way
Good luck

last night one of my post i had a comment to get free upvote full month if i sign with steem connect and i join that website so i have lost the money.I tell you my friend don't sign up any free upvote web.

That is sad. I really thought everyone knew better.

There is nothing free in this world

there is a price for EVERYTHING

You can get upvotes from certain bots etc... but I've come to the opinion (having messed around with several) they are not worth all the time and trouble they put you through.
Sorry this happened to you my friend. Never ever give out your key

experience is a great teacher and its my bad experience but i have learn a lesson from it.
