"Circumstance does not make the man. Circumstance reveals man to himself."
--Emerson

#199 Broken Glass
Crumbling beneath my feet is the Sting Of Life's current trials
And Tribulations
Endless silent tears are falling
Encapsulated within
Terrifying memories which fade in time
Yet now I still feel the sting
As I walk through without flinching.
Sometimes I notice the imbalance.
The ground becoming thicker,
Covered with shards of Broken Glass.
Each blade reminding me of horrors
In my present, past, future.
Unlawful sanctions and needless
Demonic victories put weight on
My shoulders. . . and I crawl.
I crawl through and my tears
Come swiftly, torching the path ahead
Adding more tortured liquid
To my shining menagerie of pain.
A hand extends from the Heavens.
An angel whispers:
You shall suffer no more.
And I take it, smiling.
But as I ascend, I look back. . .
And never forget.

"If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the cause of the future."
--Majjhima Nikaya

"Let go of your attachment to being right, and suddenly your mind is more open. You're able to benefit from the unique viewpoints of others, without being crippled by your own judgment."
--Ralph Marston
