I have loved so deeply,yet I never felt that kind of purity in those that showed me love
I cared so intensely,yet never felt safe to long enough not to care for myself
I honored those that deserved and yet never walked in my own honor
I held on to keep the peace,yet I always walk in eggshells not to disturb their peace
I gave my heart to the course of being human, yet I haven't been one myself
I have healed broken hearts,yet I walk around as a human humpty Dumpty
I am a good listener,yet I can hear the echo when I speak for no one listens
Everything I had to overcome I did, yet I can heart and fwdDxrq mythem taking credit for it all

Economics and Politics

We live in interesting times.The end times I might add.Me and my friend went to the market today.Grocery shopping has always been therapeutic today.I keep thinking it's the way that food comes from the farm and I love the farm.It could be the way the color green dominates the market and I love this color so much.Anyway that's not the story. We are accustomed to speaking in our local dialect because well it's easy.This gentleman is very unusually friendly and goes ahead to tell us why he loves our president. Don't get me wrong politics is a tricky subject so I usually try and read a room before engaging. Thankfully he doesn't need any of us to he just wants to talk all by himself.Here is what I learnt from him ,our circumstances are not the same.For each reason that it is different we need to know that all we have is each other.My favourite part of his rant is that he really sees the beauty in this country.He even mentioned that no matter what each one of us deserves to enjoy what they have and those don't should keep trying so we can all be okay.It got even more interesting because according to him we all have a story and no matter what our stories are we should respect each other's process.For you who has already made it and don't understand why your neighbor hasn't, it's not your business to belittle them. The people who haven't made it yet have no business badmouthing those who have for any reason under the sun.Going by his logic do not hate the players hate the game.Because we are all in the game, the rules maybe different but us players only got each other.
