.A little more faith, a little less fear




         Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety
         or the handle of faith.
                                        
Henry Ward Beecher  


    


       Paddling through a trajectory into growth

        Learning from the luscious or perhaps grim atmosphere of birth

        Inevitable sordid echoes that leaves one distraught

       Memories hiding barrels of laughter

      An uninvited guest hands you a gift tightly sealed like an official letter and 
     calls it   life.





       Some waddle through

       Bent over by the packages of maddening wreckages

      Saddled by the ludicrous lunacy of troubles and challenges and problems, benign 
      and real, ransacking the daylights out of them

      They come from all sides. Ghosts and monsters appearing and disappearing

       Lashing out that they are in charge

      Storms paralyzing dreams

      Blatant  snares debasing hopes

       Sweeping in a little fear





       Faith however says….. keep walking

       Defiant of the deafening yells of impossibilities

       Giving indifferent stares at the space of unknown

       Accepting whimsical embraces of hope

       Try trying again when strength seems to elude

       gaining some, and generous enough to accept losing some

       washing out blame, and faults

       and not making trifling mistakes win

      hanging on, making sure to keep on.

      harnessing a little faith







        a little fear relays what’s owned from what’s not

       a little faith viciously declares the ability to

       pull through.

       be in touch with what’s out of touch in what’s real and unreal.

       Forgetting the unforgettable

       Living through the unliveable

       Breaking through the unbreakable

       Announcing an ounce of survival

      to live, we need a little more faith and a little less fear
