Monday, May 07, 2012 ~ MAY 2012 FOLLOW ME BLOGGING CHALLENGE prompt is "Invalid Entry" by blainecindy Tranquility reigns I push self-imposed limits Dissipating doubt When I'm on top of the world somewhere in the back of my mind the voice of fear curls into the fetal positions. I am more confident and have more faith in my abilities and talents. Time seems to stand still Until I look at the clock Then it moves too fast When I'm on top of the world the pain in my knees retreat into a tight kernel hiding somewhere in my brain. Perhaps I don’t notice the pain because I’m too busy or perhaps the medication works better when I'm on top of the world. A cup of coffee Brings a smile to my face A family tradition When I'm on top of the world everything is possible and attainable. I could climb Denali in midwinter ignoring all the ice and snow. I would remain warm in the embrace of success. All thing possible When I'm on top of the world Joy and happiness When I'm on top of the world test, difficulties, and pain don’t cause stress. They are still there, but regulated to another plain of existence; hiding until I forget that that these aspects of material existence of physical life last only as long as body and soul are together upon this plain of existence. Once the door opens and the soul kisses the physical body good-bye the tests, the difficulties, and the pain will be left behind and the soul will ascend into the garden of paradise.
