Peace and Happiness Found

Submitted by lovedly on Sat, 2020-03-07 10:04

Despite wealth
luxuries and fast speedy life
expensive seafood
delicious delicacies
BULLET proof-cars
private aircraft

personal helipads
royal parties
leading VVVIP red carpet
purple treatment
from a class variety

Greed still lingers
more for something- something
what could that be
still man is unhappy...

science will fly man
to Mars and moon
though not very soon

but in digital form
may be after a century or two
still will man be happy
search me

Man would love
the sun to burn and ashes in an urn

but that will never happen
so why be unhappy

Live the today as it comes
differently to each one
and
try to cultivate peace within

smile laugh
don’t brood
nor bask in spiritualism only
Science takes over but gradually

yet the Earth's hidden virus
can one beat
don't ask me

As usual you have written a strong piece on current affairs, we were due a Plague it was due around 1990's -- 1348 --1665 -- 1992 Oh well we have been lucky haven't we, same as the people living on the Western seaboard, as the Cascades goes aprox every 600 years.
Cycles and Cycles if you take these things as sequential lol Take care young loved and stay away from places on the coast..
I remember dreaming about walking around a city destroyed by an Earthquake it was San Fran and there was a calendar on a broken desk that had the number 1 on it in red and it was the first of May what year I have no Idea but only Sat and Sun are in red usually , So stay away from that city if this should be the case.. the one 1906 was in April so that wasn't the one I saw in Dreamland ..
Baby Krakatoa is awakening lol

Baby Krakatoa is the baby of the real on that destroyed itself in 1883 25th august, it is in Indonesia between Java and the next Island in that line. This Volcano is of the explosive type, It's Mother made such a noise in 1883 that it was heard in Australia 1200 miles away, Have a look at its effects around that area..
There is a film called East of Java " that is about it .. Take care young Man and look after yourself in these hard days, Yours Ian ..
