Maybe Twice A Year
Every so often
something transpires
and I say
“oh, there’s the way”
momentarily
the veil is lifted
and clarity holds sway
doesn’t happen often
maybe twice a year
always the same outcome …
a reduction in fear.

and clarity holds sway
I love this Josh! Although it doesn't happen often enough, it is wonderful when it does and we never lose that insight.

... but aren't those little moments of clarity just the most incredible rays of light? Don't they make life worth living?
Beautiful thought, this. Thank you for the read :)

Thank you, and for adding it to your RL. I've found one moment of clarity can wash years of confusion away - and it either comes out of the blue in an unexpected 'normal' moment - or when under extreme pressure.

I was clear until I went to school - took about 30 years to start recovering it. Thank you for commenting.

moments of clarity, few and far between, wipe the bugs off, your dirty windscreen :-)
I am definitely feeling this poem :-)

I clean my car twice a year, whether it needs it or not. Thanks for commenting, David. Feelings (subjective experience) are good; they remind us we are still alive and not reduced to robotic morons.
