Sometimes the things that bring us joy
Bring also trouble and pain
Thoughts we had planned in our heads
Make us weary when they are changed,
Some of our greatest woes comes from that
While we are weary they alter our peace
Peace that we had until then
Our greatest woes often come from the thinking within
Sadness robs the happy man of control
He loses his smile and joy, when he tarries so
After all, what are smiles but upside down frowns!
More than not people live life in the past
Meaningless attempts, because nothing ever lasts
Why not live like there is only today?
As the saying goes, “Learn not to expect and you’ll never be disappointed.”
If we cannot achieve what we want,
We will settle, much to ourselves, its a loss
If disappointment can be a challenge,
Sorrow will come in yielding the sword that can kill.
Trouble will accumulate and bring with it his friends
Our life will be like a hostage, to that
Hope is not bad but it gives false security and bliss
It clings to our dreams and even our obscurities
It paints a false illusion,
Unless with the hope you can carry knowledge
Knowledge that things can alter at any moment,
And then after you collect your new perspective on things,
You can then come to a different hope.
Constantly re adjusting,
Forever changing,
Our greatest woes are defining
Just don’t let them take charge
Find ways of adapting, changing, and thinking.
Then our greatest woe won’t defeat us.

Blatherskite “one who is given to voluble, empty talk,” which dates from the middle of the 19th century, was originally and remains mostly an Americanism. Blatherskite is a variant of Scottish bletherskate, which dates from the mid-17th century and is a compound of the verb blether or blather “to talk nonsense” and the Anglo-American slang word skate “person, contemptible person, broken-down horse.” Another variant, bladderskate, appears in the traditional Scottish song “Maggie Lauder,” which was popular among American soldiers during the American Revolution.
This appeared to deeply offend Deputy Gregorig, who shouted back at Iro, “You cowardly blatherskite, say that again!”MARK TWAIN, “STIRRING TIMES IN AUSTRIA,” HARPER’S MAGAZINE, MARCH 1898
Ms. Murphy had already developed, for one reason or another, a reputation for fragility, and the blatherskites around Broadway began whispering.CAMPBELL ROBERTSON, “NO ILL FEELINGS: PRODUCERS BET ON A ‘SUPERWOMAN,'” NEW YORK TIMES, APRIL 30, 2007

We Forget by MwsR
In self-inflicted blindness, we forget all the ones that are in pain�
Then we turn and look over our shoulders never accepting the blame.�
Onward we keep going, forever clueless in our own little bubble�
Looks like we should access while we are down in the rumble,�
But we don’t and then we deceive ourselves into thinking that all is right,�
Even when we toss and turn away into the night.�
What is it that makes a person truly at peace?� Is it knowing that others we can deceive if they only believe?�
It’s like a game of chance that we are willing to partake of�
Not caring who we step on or who we shove.� Selfish we enter this world, selfish we leave it.�
It’s not just me thinking this and you better believe it.�
Why can’t we stop fooling ourselves, �
Stop hurting others because they let us, themselves?�
We need to acknowledge that we all play a part in this world together.�
God didn’t create us to be alone, especially forever.�
To care about others we give parts of ourselves away,�
For as long as it takes, maybe a year, maybe for just a day.�
Anyone worthy of love is worth the learning�
When others come first, in actuality we come alongside them.�
No, we can’t be always good or right, but we can bring things up and together, just like a seamstress’s hem.
Often we do not look fully at the honest to goodness value of things or people. We should always try to. There is hidden value in almost anyone and anything. Sometimes it takes an earnest double-take to spot hidden values.
How about that mailman? Or postal worker? How often do you fully understand their value to your own life? They make it possible for you to receive correspondence and bill notices, and things you might buy from online web purchases. Often we overlook the much-needed value of having postal workers or mail carriers. Just to name one in particular.
The next time you pour yourself a cup of coffee, take a look at the mug or cup you have your coffee in. We often take for granted that we have something that can hold our coffee. Perhaps you missed the value of having something strong to hold that coffee in. Maybe you haven’t noticed the beautiful display someone painted or superimposed on your mug or coffee cup. Not only will that cup hold your coffee, but it gives you something that may inspire you, explain your thoughts in way of a slogan or quote, but it serves multiple purposes.
