None of us is shallow. Many have simply not learnt how to use their shovel. Jacqueline

I searched for upliftment outside
I saw bits and pieces of it
I saw greedy people grabbing
and holding on to more than they needed
I searched for upliftment within
I saw a bottomless portion
I saw gifts that keep giving
that can be shared with everyone else.

Wonderful poem, thought provoking. Perhaps they should dig a little deeper instead of spreading the top layer of muck around. I see too much greed and grabby people too and I live in one of those countries. Counting the days to leave. Blessings and miracles for you.

Love from within
Multiplies as it
Escapes
From our depths.
That acorn of love
Can grow
Into an enormous
Tower of Strength.
Plant the seed
Thru word and deed.
Soon, a forest
Will grow.

Soo powerful, to dig is to go through stuff that may be we want pretend hasnt hapoened. To grow and change is too hard .. because we just dont want to dig.
Loved this poem. Sooo deep…

Thank you Bella. We truly don’t like to dig because it takes a lot of energy and sometimes we are not sure we want to know what we would find when we dig deeper.
