Scrapbook of Poetry and Verse Bette Jean Poisson

I examine the closets of our minds. We set in these closets looking through things we have stored away. Now we are picking out each piece to evaluate it. We must decide whether it is something we want to keep in our daily lives. Do we put it back on the shelf for daily use as part of our every day. We must learn to release the past with its remembered pains, disappointments, joys, successes, present and past relationships . The past is over. We must learn to move on. I write about our not looking over our shoulders in fear at the end of the day. We do not look at life thru the eyes of others or seek permission from others how we should live our lives. I feel we do too much of this. We worry about what other people think of us and try to fulfil their views of ourselves. It is why so many people are depressed. We are our own success story, we get new chance every day we get up. Life is a little like eating, we only get the food if we open up our mouths to receive it. We open our mind to receive what is before us. The best is yet to come. It is all a matter of faith and who we believe in. Who do you believe in? Who is the master of your ship? We follow who we believe in.
