Sadie's Thoughts In Poetry and Prose

For many years of my life, I would say since I was fifteen years old till this present time at seventy-three years old, I find myself face to face with having to accepting accountability, in the event of my making good or bad choices.

The reason I say this is; since the age of fifteen I have been forced into making choices.  This is due to the death of my mother, who died after my birth, and my father who lived un-till three days after my thirteenth birthday.  These situations of life forced me into an early stage of accountability.  Although it is impossible for me to remember or explain all that I have encountered since that time; I recall that at any given time and phase throughout this passage of my existence, I have acted, whether spontaneous or collectively, respond on what I thought was best for me in its given situation.

My life has always been so packet with eventualities that I needed to be flexible in my thought process to be able deal adequately to the many countless situations. Therefore, whether it was spontaneous, or collective, I acted on what I perceive or

thought to be best for me in any given eventuality.

I cannot say that all of my actions, or verbal deliveries to any given situations were just and correct, but consciously, I know that I try to justify my own feelings. I am therefore able, with God’s help to move out of, and on to, a path that allows me to become adjusted physically as well as mentally stay-able, to deal with various new conditions.

I believe it is safe to say that I am a matured person.  My maturity comes with age.  While I grew into maturity I learn to control my emotions even if I am deeply stirred by circumstances at any given time.  I do my best to use a pathos approach to deal with accepting praise.  I often detach my emotion in order not to get bigheaded, or to become obnoxious, for fear of disclaiming my heavenly rewards.  I choose to stay humble in order to see things at many different levels of my day-to-day encounters.  I do my best to readjust to almost any given welcomed or un-welcomed circumstances while constantly learning new things.

Maturity allows me to take criticism and evaluate them. There can be protective signals in viewing constructive criticism. Criticism can also create damaging results.  Be it as it may, I need to be sensible enough to differentiate between the two. That, I perceive, is a matured way of dealing appropriately with my life. I may or may not give a particular criticism my immediate response, but I am always left with some food for thought that I can quietly review at some later date.

Even though we encounter a variety of day-to-day

Challenges, it is necessary to always take time out

for a quiet break from any type of work. 

It is my wish that for those who will take a little time out to read my inspirational thoughts of poems, and commentaries, will derive some kind of inner stir, or inspiration, in some meaningful way.
