But the thing to remember

Not all situations are ideal

When we make attachments and form a bond

Sometimes we overestimate our feelings

Sometimes we under appreciate those whom we are fond

We may overvalue our feelings

The heart may overcompensate

To desire a connection

A relationship we wish to propagate

So many things can happen

We have missed opportunities

Sometimes we miss the signs

We disrupt our possibilities

But this is what makes life interesting

After all is said and done

You certainly won’t be bored

When we’re always looking for fun

Relationships must be earned

Some you win, some you lose

But the thing to remember

Is that you are the one who must choose

DCG

What do you posit?

What do you posit?

A claim that you say is true?

Do you try to falsify?

Is it something that you think you knew?

Do you accept something as fact?

Because of the claim of authority?

Are you satisfied?

With the rule of the majority?

The social sciences have shown us

No matter what some people actually see

They would rather follow the group

And not disagree

The influence of power

Make your decision

Follow the cult

Follow a religion

Make a choice

Take responsibility

Or cower in line 

And demonstrate futility

The struggle for liberty

Tyranny must fall

If you don’t stand for anything 

Then you stand for nothing at all 

DCG

A one-sided love affair

What have you learned?

What have you lost?

What have you earned?

What was the cost? 

Even the saint

Will feel the burn

When raw emotion erupts

And there is nowhere to turn

Unrequited love

Never reaches an end

No resolution

Of anything you send

You cannot keep

What cannot be kept

Despite all the tears

After you’ve wept

Is there a lesson?

Nothing gained or nothing lost

Was it destiny?

Or was it a coin toss?

Have you ever had?

A one-sided love affair?

Not enough to love you back?

Not enough to care?

Did you open up too much?

What vulnerabilities did you bare?

Did they freeze up and stare?

Please tell me, I dare!

Even through the heartache

Even after the pain

Do you still forgive them?

After the feelings wane?

When timing is everything

And the stars align

You and I collide

Our hearts just may resign

There is no certainty

No formula, no magic potion

For finding love

Or mutual devotion

Right before our very eyes 

Anton ordered his bottle

Of one percent methylene blue

Once known for use as a textile dye

Now it’s repurposed to reroute electrons

In a mitochondrial oxygen high

RFKJ is researching the autism rate outbreak with HHS

What are the chances it’s linked to the vaccines?

They treat us like cattle

Yet we humans can scream

There is poison in our foods

Our drinking water is saturated with fluoride

RJ Reynolds owns Kraft foods

The crimes against humanity you can run, but you can’t hide

Geo engineering chemtrails

Big Pharma COVID-19 shot

How many died from the death jabs. Full stop

Globalism conspiracies

USAID NGO’s taxpayer dollar link

I see the common denominator

What do you think?

The case is unfolding

Right before our very eyes

The names of these criminals will soon be released

Justice will come watch them drop like flies

DCG

We need not despair 

What good is self interest?

When you don’t set a high bar

The distance traveled

Would be nearer rather than far 

If we diminish our own capabilities

Before we truly know

This would likely influence our performance

What indeed might that show?

How indeed can self interest serve you?

If you do not correctly, self evaluate

If there is no baseline for progress or decay

Then this won’t help, and it shall not alleviate

What good is self interest to the altruist?

In this case, it is the key to define

How we measure reciprocity

How we relate in kind

With all things considered

We must be centered and have our feet on the ground

The middle way according  to the Buddha

Is where we should be found

I think maybe if we change the optics and focus

We need not despair

Rather than self interest

We should look at being self-aware

DCG

Makin’ my way

Sometimes we don’t invest into the right people 

Sometimes we don’t invest into the right people

We do not see them as who they are

Maybe they don’t reciprocate?

Maybe they take it too far?

When people recognize our value

We truly appreciate

If our own friends don’t

Then maybe we should reevaluate

we cannot control how other people feel about us

But we can control for whom we associate

Better our chances be

For us to navigate

There are tides of human contact

Sometimes washing away our connectivity

Demoralizing  and depreciating

Making me question “is this what I see“?

There are many complexities

To the bonds that we make

For who’s soul will benefit?

For who’s sake?

Do we self-sabotage?

do we self-sacrifice?

Do we follow the deceiver? 

Or do we follow the Christ?

DCG

With every prayer 

With every prayer, I ask for strength and courage

With every prayer, I ask for wisdom

And now I realize

He gives me the opportunity to always show some

In every hardship

I ask for forgiveness

And I ask for him to be with me

I know he is omnipresent

But sometimes in the dark, you need a light to see

Some people exclaim this practice is futile

But I would disagree

If anything, a spiritual connection

Continues to remind us of what we value and how we should be

When indeed, we have course corrections

We can better our skills in diplomacy

Just how we manage these moments

Is our responsibility

Ollie Ollie oxen free-o

I was born on July 21

The cusp of cancer and Leo

Funny how I wear my heart on my sleeve

I’m not big on astrology

But I do advocate the Enneagram

Everything goes back to your childhood experience

Hence, Gunnersenology, which shows me who I am

How much do we attribute?

When we look to our influence and cause?

If only we would figure it out

Will it help us expose our flaws?

If we cut through the minutia

Something tells me we can be easily read

Better to improve ourselves now

Cuz it’s too late when we’re dead

DCG

The reason you pretend

To forgive oneself

Can be challenging

The past mistakes and headaches

Exposed with your accounting

But to truly forgive

Is to make amends

Discontinue the behavior

And never do it again

One must break the cycle

Forgive yourself one day

And on the next day

You do it again

Stop repeating bad habits

These are something

We should certainly not depend

You don’t offend

If you suspend

The reason you pretend

Not wanting to bring an end

And so the hand with a joker

Is played like a fool

You really can’t hide

Behind a mask if you still think it’s cool
