Finding my inspiration through the voice of music and poetry. Being creative and finding ways in making life easier and smarter for others.

Seeing in all

what life has to offer,

to worry is like an equation,

it can be solved

there’s always an answer

so let’s make it wise

with an informed calculation,

The beauty in youth

is a wrinkle in time,

never mishandle people’s heart,

and never put up with those

mishandling yours,

value the heart

never ever

cause it to part

Remember the compliments

forget the insults,

otherwise it turns into

a wheel of catapults

Jealousy is the root

to catastrophe

never make it key,

please bear in mind

and minus

from your philosophy

Always be kind,

keep that in mind

imagine the possibility

it lightens your troubles,

as well as others

Gratitude is a great way

to see all humility

There’s so many factors that affect the mind, if we can lighten our troubles, let’s pay it forward and do it for others.

Remain blessed on the road ahead

' Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. ' Really if we would follow that commandment humility and love will flow. Beautiful poetry.

Hi Kyler your input is always so valuable,

Insults instigate a point of breaking another, which is never a humble approach.

Cheers to humility and all it has to offer, going to bed with a clear mind, and not a heavy heart, we are much better off.

I say, challenge accepted, and let's do this...

Absolutely agree with you Rajan,

Humility has a platera to offer.

To be open to it makes life much lighter and gives peace of mind.

Thank you for stopping by and sharing your valuable comment

Humility has so much to offer us not just terms of peace of mind. You open up the possibilities. Thank you.

Kyler J Falk from Corona, CA on March 19, 2020:

Yes, absolutely, always pay kindness forward so it may travel around the world and back!

"Remember the compliments, forget the insults. Otherwise it turns into a wheel of catapults."

Now that stanza really resonated with me. Insults often tend to turn into a never-ending wheel of catapults in my mind, and I let them smash down the walls of my happiness. I really need to learn to let go of others' insults and the ones I wish to convey myself lest I be creating more problems for everyone.

A very wonderful poem!
