I just recently started using images on my blog. This photo from a personal trip led me to revisit this poem from about a year ago. As if they belonged together ๐ While it would be a repeat to some of my blogger friends, I gave in to the strong temptation of a reblog of this poem with it’s new-found image. Look forward to having your thoughts ๐
Elusive illusion
Desolate delusion
Overthinked opinions
Painful ponderance
Evergrown emotion
Sullen stupefaction
Managing memories
Feeling felt-sense
Blocked blight-head
Heavy heartache
Perpetually present
Adamant attachment
Sneakingly seething
Desired detachment
Tired tenacity
Silent sanity
Lingered longing
Lifetimeโs lugging
Dissatisfied destiny
Emerging epiphany
Liquefying lament
Braving boredom
Releasing resistance
Teasing tangles
Identified intention
Trickled tune-in
Soothing simplicity
Soul seeking
Benign being
Breathing n Being
Rising resourceful
Juicy joyful
Wakened wisdom
Amazing alignment
Mindful miracle
Iterant infinitum
What a breathtakingly beautiful photo to go with such an incredible poem. I love the opposition that you do so well. It is almost like looking at two different sides of the same coin.

Thank you so much for appreciating the photo and the poem together ๐ It is like I am pulled into the space of the poem all over again because of the photo.
You are right in seeing 2 different sides. They are 2 sides of us …we get stuck on one side sometimes. It is up to us to skilfully flip our way of being using intention.

the photo looks very attractive with the beautiful blue of the endless wide. The fog gives the picture something mysterious So I’ve also understood the poem … it is difficult with the translation but it can be seen that it is about different perspectives. Very deep-thinking and wonderfully poetic!

Thank you very much for taking the time to understand ๐ The fog represents the thick mental turmoil that sometimes darkens our day but it can shift if we skilfully keep the intention of staying in acceptance and work our way through it. My sequence of words describes the process.

Thank you for saying that. I kept writing mostly because something wouldn’t stop from flowing from within me. Didn’t really plan for the blog or how it should be. Now finally found the space and inspiration to pair my posts with pictures.

I could read these words 100 times and they would not become boring. Itยดhard to chose a favorit, but I think it would be: “Evergrown emotion Sullen stupefaction” and of course the end…: ) Itยดs just complete!
