Life has it's "up's and down's".  Life has it's mood swings.  Emotions are real and, on rare occasions, will briefly rule.  But, the life that is ruled by emotions full time is no more than a leaf blowing in the wind.  Emotions are erratic and unpredictable.  On the other hand, emotions that propel our personal dreams, add a force to our lives that is extraordinary.

For most people, harnessing the emotions is a matter of daily training. For a few people, it's the military structure that helps harness that dangerous emotional force into a powerful productive force.

  

A Sad Moment  
 

 A broken heart,
A Weeping Willow.
An empty spot,
on my pillow.

Tearful eyes,
a broken spirit.
No will to live,
No one to hear it.
 

Motivation worthless word.
A dream…I do not care.
Friends move on with smiles.
I sit here with nothing to share.
 

The auditorium is empty now.
The folks have all gone home.
I’m left, forgotten, neglected,
...I stand here all alone.
 

My prayer is I’m in a passive phase…
a position from which I’ll move.
This self-selected losers maze,
Is not a winners groove.
 

If we have our emotions under control,
we can click these words and go home.
