the pure and innocent seeing good and evil
going with the flow to obtain freedom
surrendering to allow the best outcome
fighting an enemy keeps an enemy
losing our identity to find our identity
what we oppose, we actually strengthen
what we judge, we make again to happen
what we fear, we subconsciously attract
what we give away comes reflecting back
insanely seeing the insane as evil people
driven mad, we try in vain to get even
impossible to believe what we don’t see
impossible to see what we don’t believe
ceasing to think is our enlightenment
our defenses cause our imprisonment
loving an enemy is our salvation
when we rest and be still, we awaken

Profound-beautiful...
This is like a set of arrows indicating the entrance to roads of awareness.
An outstanding compostion... "Paradoxical World" strikes the learning dynamo of the soul.
In respect and admiration,

Beautiful and profound word Bonita, I should have this tattooed on my wrist to keep reminding me of it's wisdom. It is so easy to slip into negativity

If we are unable to understand or believe your words
perhaps we can look back and see the results of hate
when you give love you recieve love, we have not done this, this is what we need to apply to all relationships the result will be seen.
this is evolving and we are in desperate need of this
well Bonita the pleasure is all mine
quite a priveledge
God bless you..
