Excellent
excellent writing skills you have there. I'm lovin the flow and rhyming you've used. reminds me of the stress free week I had last week on holiday and of course the cotton clouds brought back the memories of the aeroplane!

Re: My dear Dave
You are absolutely correct; whilst a lot of us look for the good in everyone this does not mean we do not notice the bad; the thing is not to dwell on it; you should know that I did not bring my family to this little island in the sun by chance! As for selective seeing my friend, this is what we all do one way or another...... peace and blessings always

I read a post in which people called 'goodfinders' look for only the good in the world! If no-one looks at the wrongs how will they know what to correct? Problem-Solution is what it is all about. WHAT IS is my goal, not selective seeing! I think it is possible to see what is presented rather than what one wants to see!

Hello mariaki-firstly I like the quote very much.Thank you.Your poem is so
'light and Beautifull'--it seems to 'sing' to me as I read! Yes-we are 'caught up' with the world and all it's problems and we need to make TIME for ourselves-as individuals-in between.God bless. Chris.
