Progress Is the Concept That Inspires Ideas

To move forward,
In thought.
Or in actual movement.
Means exactly that!
Not to discuss it,
As if to do so will get it done.
To move forward takes applied effort.
If a repeated situation,
Does not get resolved.
Because there is something,
In one's consciousness that blocks this.
Moving forward is not going to be accomplished.
To make noticeable progress.
And progress is the concept that inspires ideas.
Rarely, if ever...
Does enlightenment stirs or occurs,
To one 'enhanced' by the driven excitement of stagnation.
Unless this has been determined as a fresh activity.
And for a very few,
This may be a possibility.

Pageantries Of Ceremonies Done

The affects of a 'rite of passage' taken,
Should produce a noticeable growth...
Of a progress made.

But some rituals enforced are delayed,
By a maturity that seems afraid...
To move ahead with an expected responsibility.

And pageantries of ceremonies done,
Do not prepare one to comprehend or observe...
From previous examples anywhere that have been laid.

And yet these empty spectacles displayed,
Are just events to watch unnourished...
As another performance of expectation that aging will unlock!

Like graduating from one place with steps,
That should move forward...
Instead of a regress into a relapsing that stops.

With completions of routines that are witnessed,
But accomplishing nothing that has a meaning felt...
Or seen to be embraced as a progress that escapes stagnation.

Well, the important message that we've always carried to China is that we look forward to your progress and prosperity, we look forward to you playing a role in the progress and prosperity of this region and we look forward to stability in your relations with others.

The truth is that as we move forward, if one side says we can't raise any taxes on anybody or any interest, and the other side says we can't cut anything, we're obviously not going to make progress on this. And our interest is in making progress on this.

Mother Africa

Move, move, move!
Academic and academicians;
Where are you to move Mother Africa forward?
Think, think, think!
Illitrates and literates;
Where are you to double up the pace?
Look at the mother hen and think twice;
It shelters its chicken in times of danger! !
Where are you to move things forward?
Where are you to move Africa forward?
Where are the prophets?
Where are you to move things upfront?
Yes, the better ones have come and gone.
They came telling us the truth;
But, what do we see nowadays?
Now, where lise the future of Mother Africa? ! !
Look at the mother hen and think twice.
Mother Africa, move forward;
Move upfront to put the world in shape.
Academic and academicians,
Illitrates and literates,
Think big for Mother Africa! !
Move Africa into a better position on this globe.

Forward

'Forward! forward!'
Rang our fathers' battle-cry.
'Forward! forward!'
Norsemen, be our watchword high!
All that fires the spirit and makes the heart's faith bright,
For that we forward go with might
And faithful fight.

'Forward! forward!'
Whoso loves a home that's free.
'Forward! forward!'
Freedom's course must ever be.
Though it shall be tested by doubt and by defeat,
Who will the losses' count repeat
When vict'ries greet?

'Forward! forward!'
Whoso trusts in Norway's day.
'Forward! forward!'
Whoso goes our fathers' way.
Hid in Northern mountains are spirit-treasures true
They shall, when dawns the morning's blue,
Come forth anew.

For Those Who Seek Comfort

Now that the race has been won...
You can move forward with your agenda.
And those plans you are ready to implement.

'Oh...
That's right! '

You 'are' ready to implement those plans?

'Uh, yeah.
As soon as we can figure out what they are,
We are certain to come up with something.'

But you won a race,
On the basis you are prepared to move forward.

'Uh...
Yeah.
Gee!
Well...
We'll have to go backward first,
To see if moving forward is in the best interest...
For those who seek comfort,
In a past that no longer exists.'

But a lot of the old fans are listening to a lot of the younger music. So I gotta keep moving forward, and they'll move forward too.

I find that the best way to do things is to constantly move forward and to never doubt anything and keep moving forward, if you make a mistake say you made a mistake.

A Delivery To Impress Expectations

The problem with those who find it difficult to progress,
Is an inability to leave what has been done successfully.
To move on to do something next with the same initiative.
That addresses the taking of forward steps.
And not the sitting to reflect on that which has been accomplished.
Like many do.
As if to prove a continued reminiscing sustains status that's valued.
And if it does...
Are those few left impressed motivated enough to do for themselves,
With a delivery to impress expectations?

I'm Moving Forward

I'm moving forward
and you can't stop me
I can't tell where I got my strength
but I'm moving forward.

Better not follow me
'cause I won't look back for you.

I'm moving forward
and I'm leaving you behind
my bitter past.

They rushed to move it forward, uh, and then a lawsuit was filed and we spent many months litigating, rather than trying to come up with legislation and move forward on that front.

Find No Answer

I could find no answer
May be answer with fewer
I believe in rain’s shower
It gives little hope of survivor

I turn around and see beautiful things
I hoped to find new or something
It may satisfy my long urge
Some one may come forward for bonds to forge

I really long for some kind of attachment
Where I can confine or make some movement
A movement of long lasting relation
That has remained distant possibility for the want of revelation

To remain aloof from mainstream is no answer
We have live among all vultures for future
Nothing may prove it relevant or look real
Some closeness is to be created for special deal

Don’t go for meaningless words
It is out of dated concept to look forward
You may expect back lash or some kind of fear
But it is part and parcel of life hence to bear

What can you see in drunken stage?
Flying high in sky with unmindful of an age
What happens when intoxication is over?
You have no time left for make over

The real place is among human beings
We got to be a part of circus ring
Not all animals may try to befriend
Yet we can not take it as complete end

It may impossible to take fresh air
If all the time we fear about polluted air
There may bad smell along with good odor
We must try to adjust and seek for

I need make it in form of appeal
Only outdated ideas must be repelled
We can certainly live with changed situation
The balance can be maintained with good equation

Preferred Suffocating

Everyone should have the right,
To defend their beliefs.
There is nothing 'constitutionally' wrong with this.

However...
Opposing those beliefs of someone else,
Without exposing evidence of one's own existing...
Is not defending one's beliefs at all.

It's just a blocking of a progress to eliminate or stall.
Ensuring for themselves any success is defeated.
To allow those nonbelievers to obstruct,
And impede.

In the prevention of anything done,
That generates any forward movement...
For a preferred suffocating stagnation.
A belief many wish to keep increased.

Leave The Past And Moving On With The Future

What does it means to
Leave the past, and moving on with future?
It means you have to just let it go
Even it going hurt and feel so much in pain
You have other things looking forward too
If you love something so much
It will come back to you
It does it meant to be and if don't then just move on
I have finally learn my mistakes after yesterday
It's was perfect day off
I want to be who I am
I changes so much just to fit in
That's not like me
Time to figure out what I really want
What does it means to
Leave the past and moving on with future?
It means that this is now and your chances to do what you been waiting for
Time is running out
No going back and forth in path
No going back and forth in past to future
I'm stop acting like I'm scared
I'm not and now this is my time
I'm not regreat anything anymore
I don't want be like this
I need to think before I say something or do it
Past is not something I need think about
I need to think about future that I'm waiting for to happen
This is me and I finally understand what I didn't before
It's all right in front of me
I need to grab it and hold onto it
Future is waiting for me
I'm moving forward
Leave the past and moving on with future

Keep Moving Forward

Returning attention given to those seeking it,
By telling you what you are not...
And what you could do to improve your status,
For their approval and acceptance...
Should give you a clue as to what it is they do.
And have done with the time to them given.

However...
IF you return back to them nothing to work with,
By giving them closed lips and forward movement...
Something done in the doing of that,
Will be more than enough than they have done...
Most of their lives they themselves have validated.

You need not to say or do a thing to bring yourself,
Down to a level to appease people like this.
Since it should be obvious to you as this is viewed,
They have yet to find themselves...
To stop a wasting of their time to find others,
Willing to waste their minds and time collectively.
With no improvement or a wish to seek progress.

The only thing done one can do for people like this,
Is to keep moving forward.
With a leaving behind with them a hint as to your abilities.

Walking Ahead.....

early mind so fresh, telling
new ideas
with new, way of how to
win a living

sweet fresh of saliva; fresh
smell, true
deodorant of an early
morning fumes,
a style that
need not a gargle

with eyes half awake, the
heart that makes
a break, and
the body wet, take a
little burp for a little dandy

step by steps move
your feet
ahead, forward
with hands in fit, distance
squeeze and jump for
sweat

looks what you see
your
path make its way
i'am moving
on ahead of you

Even If He Feels It

Wise is the man who stumbles...
Gets up.
And continues to move forward.
Many would rather sit,
And relive the experience,
Of it.
To discuss the affects.

A man who stumbles,
Will not allow himself to be broken.
Even IF he feels it.
He may even show it hurts.
However,
When he begins to believe he is...
He will spend the rest of his life,
A broken man.
With only sadness to offer!
And memories of failure to share.
Recalling a stumbling fall,
Over and over.

Wise is the man who stumbles...
Gets up.
And continues to move forward.
Many would rather sit,
And relive the experience,
Of it.
To discuss the affects.

Seeking pity!
Or something to numb,
The effects of regret!

Recipe for memory

Memory is a very simple entity
It starts with a cache of everyday interactivity
It can not move forward unless an effort is made
The effort is difficult in the beginning assault
It tends to relieve it self once you enact the activity and increased its flexibility
Memory is simple as long as you are willing to become enthralled.

To Me

I sit in my car
while darks clouds
try to molest the sun’s rays. I
am thinking of Easter
and what it means to us
from all the four corners of the world.
To me Easter means a new life,
a resurrection from the old.
To move forward, making
it better with each step.
Discarding the sorrows
that crucified our mind,
walking forward, head tall
to meet new challenges
that will lay ahead.
