A L O H A From Honolulu!
When young,
older people look
like wrecks.
When mature,
younger people look
half baked.
For years I have noticed
that "what to wear"
"what to eat" "what NOT
to say" have all regularly
popped unbidden
into my head.
So I began to go
with the outfit
that popped into
my mind.
That became a habit.
Then I began applying it
to other things. In other
words, I started to heed
the suggestions
that seemed to
present themselves.
It occurs to me
that all my prudence
and foresight
have produced as much
trouble for me,
as successes.
Every major New
Direction, has been made
[when examined closely]
by persistent "hunch"
hunches that keep repeating
and finding complementary
echoes seemingly everywhere.
Perhaps, angels are always
speaking, directing, aiding.
Be alert. Be aware
of what presents
to your fascination
unbidden.
Such lies the way
to your best
and your bliss.
Of course, we all know
from cartoons that
we each have a devil,
as well as an angel.
That's why we have two shoulders.
[And for wings later].
It comes to choice.
What am I choosing
over and over again,
and where does that lead?
Which self do I feed?
Is that the person
that I WANT to be?
Choices.
We are all free
to make new ones!

An interesting variation on a story which struck home to me some years ago.
A grandfather tells his grandson that he has two wolves inside him. One is a kind wolf, and the other mean and nasty. They are fighting constantly.
Which one wins Grandpa?
The one I feed.
Ah! Perfect!
We have all been given a degree of freedom to do as we see fit - its just a shame that so many seem to abuse that privilege.
Well, that's how it feels.
Hope all is well - Stewart M - Melbourne
You have "what NOT to say" pop into your head. You lucky duck you.
That angel is a show stopper.
Fabulous post, Cloudia!
That mural is very colourful and looks gigantic!
Thanks for contributing to Monday Murals Cloudia.
Well said. Life is full of choices and I'm happy I've made most of the correctly. I've missed a few, but they have made me what I am today.
