Quote from: BeTheChange on May 06, 2012, 09:21:08 PMThat was beautiful Front...much like your other poetry, it's tinged with both joy and pain. And while the feelings of joy that it brings forth are breathtaking....the pain in it makes it hard to breathe...
We've been discussing the trial recently (again)...and perhaps Front's poem/thoughts have nothing to do with the conversations here...who knows? But this part of the poem is THE reason why I just cannot entertain the notion of the trial having been fake:
QuoteI remember those days
of anguish and pain
drowning my spirit
like a monsoon rain
my cries washed away
no voice escaped
no one heard
no one admitted their mistake
but He was there
He witnessed it all
He was my believer
and He answered my call
Are "those days of anguish and pain" that Front speaks of the days spent during the trial? None of us can know the answer with 100% certainty. But given what Mike was accused of....given what he had to endure....if there is even a 1% chance that it WAS real (and the % in my opinion of it having been real is much, much higher)....then that 1% chance overshadows everything...and I just can't tear myself away from his pain long enough to 'smile' about any part of it.
Thanks for sharing a piece of yourself with us Front...it's much appreciated. As are you.
With L.O.V.E. always.
Amazing post BTC......as always. I love the 1% reference......I'd say too, if there is even only a 1% chance he's still alive (which I fully to believe a lot higher).....but even at 1%, I will not back down from beLIEving . I will stand the ground, stay on target and press onward through this path when the time is right. I always have to stop and give pause when things get dark. I revert to that wall-flower inner self. I find darkness a time of reflection. The last few pages, have been very "reflective" for me. However, it usually takes just one post to bring me out and into the light......it's the 1% factor, BTC. Even if the percentage was half that.....I'd still beLIEve, I'd still be here. 1/2% compared to the 101% Michael gave the world....my faith in him is much stronger than that. I can sustain myself on that faith for as long as needed. Truth to tell, I suppose you all are stuck with me, lol.
Oh yeah......SEHF.....I rescued a turtle yesterday...for real, poor thing was stuck in the street and couldn't get up on the curb to get down to the pond. He was a handsome little turtle, abut the size of my laptop. He's safe and sound in the pond again.....I named him SEHF :icon_cool:
Blessings Always
