Hello underground
It took a while
But now it comes
With no hesitation
To your shackles of procrastination
To your chains of timidity
To the fear of the unknown
Hello
Hello
I am knocking down your doors
Ready to infiltrate
To be tucked in like a seed
Enshrouded in the darkness of challenges
Covered by the soil of toils
Sunk by the waters of breakdowns
Enfolded by the death of risks
Hello underground
Your dominion is over
I am breaking through
Like a seed burgeoning
What you quashed was not me
What you ruined was the fear of trying again
But I sprout to greatness
I bud to the knowledge of dead ends
I germinate to the discovery
Of the way that works
Hello underground
I ascend above the spell of hades
Hello

“We all change, when you think about it. We’re all different people all through our lives. And that’s OK, that’s good, you gotta keep moving, so long as you remember all the people that you used to be”
-Steven Moffat
You just reminded me of what he once said.

Hello.
The search of sense for me comes by thinking about what it could be. But mind is not the emperor of life; we are more and its useless to try to explain it for ourselves and for other people. We are “VIP” because we exist. 😉
We haven´t to try hard “to stand up” again and again to give “sense” to life. We just are. Each minute of living is a death and a birth as well for me.
Have a good time.
Frank

Thanks for your kind comment, and for reading. I also enjoyed reading the messages on your blog. For a long time, I have thought about how Christ calls every believer to the vineyard to fulfil various purposes. I have never thought about being called to be a writer until I came across your blog. In today’s world, it has become increasingly difficult to minister to people- where it is not outrightly banned, it may be offensive. My eyes just opened to ministry by blogging. There is no way that can be offensive. People read by choice. Also, you get to touch the lives of strangers without being obnoxious. You are doing a great thing.
