Yes! This is so true. I have found that experience in my life, too. Whether it is political or personal change, it sometimes needs to be fought for, and you know when you've succeeded by your gut reaction, as well as the feedback from those who truly care about you, beyond the trappings of opinions and such. I have a small circle of people who care about me, but even they keep changing, and I need to be willing to let them go if they can't get on board with the changes I am going through in order to grow. This poem is well written and straight to the point. No frills are needed and I like the bare-bones approach. The metaphor of the rope being broke with its corresponding picture is well chosen and adds much to the presentation. Have a pleasant day.
Take care,
Jesse

Wow, Ronni. Thanks for appreciating the comments and sharing I gave. I loved reading your encouraging reply, and am glad I read and reviewed your work.
My apartment was decorated by a close friend last night for Christmas and we sat and listened to Christmas music, and talked, and it was a most enjoyable and satisfying time. She is preparing, (ahead of time) a home-cooked Thanksgiving meal for us this Thursday, and I am grateful. We will spend it together, and I am ripe with anticipation. I wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving/Christmas holiday season, too!
Take care,
Jesse

| I guess unless Christ does the changing it's doomed to failure, and people will tend to change and deny that entirely, people always feel uncomfortable with change, especially for the better brings a conviction, I remember when a friend saw the change in me went outside and started mowing his, when I asked where he was, his wife said he couldn't handle my testimony, well done, Ronni, blessings Roy

Hi dear Roy,
You got it so right here dear Roy! Loved your little anecdotal story
about your friend, a reality check some just can' handle.
Take care, and may you and yours have a blessed, happy and
safe Thanksgiving Holiday! God Bless!
