To believe that you are a loser and a failure is to make yourself one, I know we all say it at times, a crisis of self beleif. Some of us are lucky enough to have friends to support us when we go through these. You are only a failure if you dont even try.
I may not have the mental ability of Einstein, the artistic prowess of Michael Angelo, the mastery of music of Mozart. I may not be able to write edge of the seat gripping story lines such as Stephen King or Dean Koontz, make you weep like Dave Peltzer. What I can do is weave a web of magic and take you to places where you can dream or laugh or cry, or be at peace.
I can lead you by the hand on a path through the forest to the side of the river, there before you is a waterfall, the water is not cold, it is warm the sun is shining. Keep hold of my hand as we take the path up over the bank and the rocks that lead behind the waterfall. There behind the curtain of water you can watch the birds swoop and dive as they try to catch the fish rippling the surface of the river. Flowers float towards us languid, turning slowly as they come.
Out from under the waterfall, down the other side, to the tiny beach in this hidden lagoon of peace, where we can sit and talk about this and that, or just relax and watch the water and listen to its soothing murmour.
This is one of my many special places where I escape to when life becomes a pain, too fast, when I need peace, I often take a friend there, maybe you could too.
We all need a haven, they are easy to find, just relax and take the journey, once you have found it, you can make it your own, add your own scenery, people, wildlife, or just be alone in your own special little oasis.
Hope you all had a good day.
