Kaleidoscope World

Jerry i'm still searching for that content place after the dark road sometimes I think i'm there than it alludes me.. beautiful to know you have found that contended place..

love Brenda

So very sorry the peaceful part of your world has failed to show itself. As you know, I still write dark at times, but mos off it is centered on the past. I can't let it go, it was such a HUGE part of me for most of my years. I have confidence that you, too will find your comfort zone. Thank you, yet again, for being here.

Thank you so much, Lily, for your kind thoughts turned in to words.

Hoping you are doing well these days.

The title alone I thought perfect Jerry, clarity here and there looking through the viewfinder and then distortion in other places...I hope to find clarity in all some day but I also accept such a gift takes much time...so I [im]patiently wait...lol...really enjoyed this...

You will find that clarity, Taryn, I am positive that you will. Easy for me so say? Yes, it is easy for me to say, because I have been through complete and utter hell in my life, but I kept plodding on, and as I plodded on I eventually began to see things I'd never seen before. Difficult for me to explain what I mean, except that I realized that I had done the best I could through the years and the world was accepting me inside its beauty and freshness for the rest of my days. I believe that you will get there in your own unique way, and someday you will understand what I have said here today. Never quit being you. Never!  
 
Yes, I still write dark . . . But it is always the past I am writing about . . . Not the here and now.

Jerry, thank you so very much for such a reply...I will be the silly me...and I will print it and put it in a box of things I keep which are special to me and one day yes, I will look at it, remember and be seeing it through different eyes to appreciate every word of it even more I'm sure....

xoxo Taryn

You honor me, Taryn.

Indeed, Jerry. Sometimes it's all in how you turn the kaleidoscope that determines what you'll see.

Yeah, you're right, Ahavati, thanks for being here.

Thank you flower, for your thoughts. Yes, we can only be a composite of who we have been in our  past. Thank you again.

Very well put Jerry. Not easy to reduce such a lifetime length of past into a precis which is so evocative. Glad you've found peace and glad you share such gems with us!

Thank You Jerry!

I so appreciate your very kind thoughts, KDAmB.
