My Final Post"
As I sit on his old wooden paint-chipped bench positioned
in the center of this town square,I feel the chaotic
bustle of what we as a society have come to recognize as
normalcy. I watch as people hurriedly rub shoulders in
route to their desired destination,and not once look
up to acknowledge the existence of the others surrounding
them.I am currently listening to Jewel Kilcher on my
headphones.I am slowly swept away by the mesmeric melodic
masonry flooding my ears.I begin to feel the sun warming
my cheeks and the breeze slightly lifting my hair.I look
up to the sky and I am captured by the sea of blue above.
The white cloud accents remind me of the ocean and its’
white foamed waves.I am brought to a place of complete
awe and tearful gratitude for the love and provision the
Creator of all brings.My eyes fall back upon the crowd
of people whose eyes lack the color of life...of freedom.
I am reminded that Poetry truly is a gift to the soul. A
simple expression has a way of lifting downcast eyes and
healing hidden brokenness.I am moved and impassioned to
touch the seemingly hopeless with word.I desire to write
the goodness of life,acknowledging the reality of
unbearable heartaches,but splashing the canvas with the
redeeming hope that I have come to know. As I journey
through this life, my experiences and those I observe
become part of the melodic pictures I paint. And now,
friends,I invite you to come and journey with me. I
am excited as I continue to collect wisdom through the
painful places for it is through trials that a heart is
made stronger.Your Bearific Friend Forever,Love,Cybear;=)

Once again your words touched me.All of us have had many,trials,but hope we have learned and become stronger people.So many people to wakl through life,not reaaly opening there eyes to te beauty around them.For me personally,I will miss your words everyday,they have lifted me up at times,they have made me cry.They have taught me to try and express my own feelings that I have kept bottle up for so long.And I thank you for that.You are a beautiful person,no matter what you have touched my heart forever.Pam
