Helping only hurts
Helping others is human nature.
Nature helps others become human.
Human is a nature others help.
Helping others is simple and serene.
Helping hurts when you don't help yourself first.

Human integrity
The power to be
To continue on being
The power to become
To continue on and run
The power to overcome
To reign over as the sun
The power to be one
To find oneself
To find human integrity.

186,000 Miles A Second
Light begins from within
Light begins with a belief
Light begins when we see without sight
Light is simply electricity mixed with sincerity
Light can be humanly explained but inhumanely detained.

Strength of man
The strength of man is not found in his hands.
A hand is equal in strength to a salesman's shallow stand.
The man who is strong with or without hands is
The man that will not drown when put on shallow ground.

Light in death
Heaven is
Tranquillity
Security
Eternity
Bea uty
The look in love's eye
The strength of your heart
The recognition of your spiritual progression
Cleanliness
Purity
Sanctity
Honesty
The beginning of everything

The greatest pain
History
Storage of down-
Trodden memory
Antiquity?
Weight
Added to life's
Forward push to
See
History
The greatest plane
Fly forever
Just depart
No looking back
But to reminisce
The progression
The window
Opportunity

Sight - Sound - Smell
Picaso, Monet, Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Botticelli, and da Vinci
Each piece of art, worth years of work
The focus of their art, Beauty on Earth
The value of their work is well known
The origin of their work, is little known

Building up to success
Money, Power, Prestige, Prowess, Politics, Possessions, Prizes, and Ownership mean nothing to those that are truly successful. Success is accepting that nothing is good enough and realizing that every fall is a foundation to greater success.

Reason for our existence
Pain, poverty, sorrow, sin, suffering, rape, abuse, resistance, captivity, insecurity, handicap, all forms of set back
How do we react?
All is blessed who takes, receives, is given and bleeds
With a smile and realization that it is but one mile.
