on As I Grew Older by Langston Hughes, on November 12Circumstances in life can separate us from our dreams but they can
be recaptured irregardless of our current age, for a dream is not truly gone until either it or us is dead...

on Mirror by Sylvia Plath, on November 12
And the dog seeking both bones lost his to the lake...
To me the terrible fish would be denial and the lake the
needless tears shed because of it.
The standard mirror can only reflect what is there, whereas a
lake is changing and can alter what is reflected in it, much like
the mirrors at the circus in the fun house.
We can deny we are aging but it doesn't change the fact that
we are and until we see the true nature of who we are, then we
will forever be like the small fish, constantly waiting to be consumed by the terrible larger one.
We see differently through tear-filled eyes and often a change of
perspective is needed to finally see what is really there and not
what we image to be. Just as an addict will never admit they have
a problem, so to many are vain and seek plastic surgery to try
to maintain their youth, but that doesn't change the inside
and they too eventually die, just as everyone else does.
We can not change what actions may come, but we will always
have the power of choice on how we REact to those actions
and there is where our salvation lies. We must accept there
is both good and bad in the world and when bad arrives we
need to hang on until we get through it and the next change comes. We can be certain it will, for life is but a series of actions and reactions, that we continue to do until the day we die.
There is a saying that "The truth will set you free" and it is true
for once you accept your mortality, then instead of spending
all your days in denial and fighting to maintain the past, you can finally start living for the future.

Each is the front and each is the rear
Hate like a bullet will peirce through their hearts
Can we ever know end if we know not the start
