What are you accepting that would not be a part of your ideal day?

Not Really Sure
you want me now,
but my mind is still lost,
of what i want,
and what i need,
you seem really nice,
but questions are coming to mind,
will you really be there,
when i need you the most?
or will you turn away,
because you want nothing to do with it?
i'm a sensitive girl,
you can't have the good part of me,
you have to like my faws,
it what makes me who i am,
nobody has the right to 'pick' me apart,
i'm human like everybody else,
i have my rights to be me,
and i don't really care,
i'm making me happy,
you accepting who i am,
is just part of the gift,
of knowing me,
and accepting everything that i am.

A Bare Truth
I am in the present perfect
Where I have always been,
Finally reaching
Something of my own
Which makes tomorrow
A day worth following...
As I rise with the orange glow
Of an enterprising ideal
That is too ardent
And possessive to let go...
I may be unknown and alone,
But the real one is ready
Apart from here
And has become part of the world
I am striving for...
Separating the many
Halves of me
And sorting them
Into the infinite good or bad
I am most likely to succeed...
The Cause is the ideal,
The ideal is the principle
And the tempter's key
Which unlocks or fastens
The door of immortality...

The greatness of human actions is measured by the inspiration that it brings. Blessed is he who carries within himself a God, an ideal of beauty and obeys it: an ideal of art, ideal of science, ideal of country, ideal virtues of the Gospel! These are the wellsprings of great thoughts and great actions. All reflections illuminate infinity.

Room for improvement for Leslie
Critics express their point of view.
As they have every right to do
I will give credit where it’s due.
So I consider each review
as of potential benefit
Though I may not agree with it.
It may well be I can profit
by reading what my critics writ.
I treat all critiques just the same
accepting praise accepting blame.
All part and parcel of the game.
Improvement is my only aim.
So please feel free to state your view
You might well teach me something new.

As if There Are Exceptions to Mother Nature's Rules
Allowing anxieties,
And embittered feelings...
Of how things should be,
And how we'd like to see them done...
From our own perspective.
Needs to be released,
From the minds of those continually feeding...
On beliefs people and things remain unchanged.
When a day comes a day goes.
There is not a season that stays as it is.
But adults who are still children in their minds,
Find it difficult to leave behind...
That which is not coming back.
And it becomes unfortunate for many,
Who are not accepting of this natural process.
As if there is a fairy princess that will magically,
'Wand' their troubles away.
Accepting what is with a moving on is part of life.
Many are stuck and just refuse to do it.
As if there are exceptions to Mother Nature's Rules.

Acceptance.....
time makes you forget
yourself
sometimes you stop moving away
you need a mirror
faces it and looks at your face
there are so many lines
you undress yourself
and find our so many wrongs
so much have been neglected
you wonder
and you think of the river
that flows in so many winding ways
accepting and taking with its body
everything
there is no regret
it is nothing but fate to just be a river
to just be later
nothing but a part of the sea, the ocean, to be just
a part of everyone and
everybody

We lift ourselves by our thought, we climb upon our vision of ourselves. If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and of yourself. Hold the ideal of yourself as you long to be, always, everywhere - your ideal of what you long to attain - the ideal of health, efficiency, success.

I know me.
A bit too frank,
A bit too blunt.
For which I am ready to bear the brunt.
A bit too shy,
A bit too humble.
I walk on after every stumble.
A bit too determined,
A bit too ideal.
Makes me almost surreal.
A bit too fast,
A bit too dizzy.
I don't like things easy.
A bit too strong,
A bit too independent.
Hate being repentant.
A bit like Dad,
A bit like Mom.
No where do I belong.
UNIQUE - as everyone thinks they are.
GRATEFUL - for being blessed plentiful.
ACCEPTING - of my shortcoming.
What makes me proud
Iis the fact that I know me.
I don't care if others agree.

Acceptance
Accept accept
Acceptance is life.
Without accepting
You can not stand
Without accepting
You can not stay
Without accepting
You go astray.
Accept accept
Acceptance is life.
And everything
Is all right
Everything is OK
Go and enjoy life.

My Ideal Man
A man of 360 degrees personality.
A man of many colours.
A man of many souls,
Suited for every single season,
Tailored for a fair number of tasks.
He is my ideal man.
It is not his outward beauty,
But his devastating internal brilliance.
A man of amazing aspiration,
Who issues incredible inspiration.
You are my ideal man.
A man like a magnet,
Drawing into his fold and bosom,
All panaches of people,
‘Cos he commands remarkable respect,
And radiates astonishing admiration.
That is my ideal man.
A man like Solomon,
Displaying incomparable intelligence,
Demonstrating wondrous wisdom,
Deadly dependable for solutions,
A consistent counselor,
And a handy one-stop resource center.
You are my ideal man.
A man of the people,
Sympathetic and exceptionally empathetic, ,
Firm but flagrantly fair,
Identifying persistently with the people,
Fighting with and for the people,
Sharing joy and pain with the people.
You are my ideal man.
My ideal man,
Lastly but foremost,
A paragon of a God-fearing person.
With biblical statutes his only standards.
A man honourable but humble,
A man of humility and humor,
A man of love, peace and truth,
A man of Godly justice,
Not fearing whose ox is jabbed.
He is my ideal man

To serve the people, one must write for the ideal reader. Only for the ideal reader. And who or what is that ideal reader? God. One must imagine, One must deeply imagine that great Attention. Only so, in lonely dialog, can one reach the people.

I think almost every woman artist I've ever met has this ideal of being in a partnership working situation with a man, that men don't seem to share. They seem to want this ideal thing, that we'll always be together and work together.

Where Ground Meets The Sky
You may dare
But lead no where
As it is ideal world
Far from truth and very cold
Where ground meets the sky
No one questions why?
There is no 'ifs and buts'
All doubtful windows are shut
Honesty is considered as rarest word
Not that much useful to look forward
As idealism leads no where
You are fooled by people only to stare
It is nice to adopt in personal life
Where life is not torn and engulfed with strife
Love and compassion reign supreme
It is then always you and me
Jealousy is part of human life and natural one
No one has remained aloof to be undone
Yet not bad to give worth try and look forward
When life is ideal it has to look like nice and standard
Yes, yes same kind of situation can be created
The poverty and unhappiness can be alleviated
When nature has gifted us in abundance
In real life too we can enjoy fully at once
With little contentment in shaky mind
One can dream and always find
An ideal way to lead with joy
When two are really in love and committed to enjoy
