Questions by John/Self-Awareness/Feeling Lost/Feeling Helpless/Hope/Understanding/Courage/Strength


 

Questions

 

Sometimes I feel so lost

and survival feels to great a cost!

What GOD there is doesn’t hear

all my worries and my fears.

I ask GOD heartfelt questions,

yet still no answers or suggestions.

Is it just me who feels this way

and will this feeling always stay?

Perhaps the answers are always near

needing to ask the correct questions is now clear!

I have two self-help stories available exclusively on
 Amazon, either on the Kindle or paperback, and I do
 hope that you find them interesting, thought-
provoking, and, most of all, enjoyable: -
 
This simply written short story is aimed at those who
 seek to understand themselves, and through
 understanding themselves comes a greater
 understanding of life. 
 
(as witnessed by his brother)
Much has been written about Jesus, and no matter your
 view on religion or Christianity, this person, whether he
 was as described in the bible or not, has singularly
 shaped, to a greater or lesser extent, the lives we lead
 today through his wisdom. There are many versions of
 the story, but there is only one truth, and is it not
 better to know the truth?
 
You are most welcome to visit my self-help youtube
 

And you will find an excellent read in this story by my son Colin, and it is here.

Knowledge and Wisdom (2) by John/Understanding/Meditation/Inner Stillness/Peace/Healing/Awareness


 Knowledge and Wisdom (2).

 

Like warm sunshine

dispelling the dark 

and shadows,

illuminating my path

and my world.

Such is the effect of

knowledge and wisdom.

Contentment by John/Understanding/Meditation/Inner Stillness/Peace/Healing/Trust/Self-Awareness


 Contentment

 

Whether we are financially rich or poor,

the meaning we give to our lives,

is such that we may all

have riches beyond compare,

through striving gently for self-improvement.

And it is by appreciating all who enter

our lives and the lessons we learn from them,

that we find through experience,

awareness and unconditional love

bring the ultimate contentment.

The Rough Diamond by John/Love/Friendship/Hidden Feelings/Loyalty/Inner Strength



The Rough Diamond

 

The true value and beauty

of the “rough diamond”

is often hidden

by gruff humor.
