How I put things into perspective.

When I meditate
I can feel myself
Beyond all things
Beyond painful relationship memories
Beyond all experiences and fears

When I meditate
I see
And I feel
The true golden value
Of everyone
And everything

When I meditate
Everything falls
Back into place again
And inside
I feel
Beautiful.

    This is lovely. Time to ourselves is really the only cure to help and heal the day.

    I really like the last paragraph… “When I meditate
    everything falls back into place again”

    A very helpful poem especially for the hot-tempered person.. short but meaningful… it’s like getting back to your old self again….

    When I am a few beers in I get the same sentiment. Thank you for understanding the pains of the average soul – who ultimately wishes but nothing other than to be loved. Well said, my friend, I enjoy your skills.

    Cheers!

    “inside I feel beautiful” simple but powerful. Afterall, it’s all everyone ever wants, to feel whole and beautiful from within.

    A beautiful sentiment, I feel the same way when I meditate. Take care, Ruby

    Beautiful poem. Meditation is a big part of my life. Thank you for sharing.

    I found it unusual for a man to say “I feel beautiful inside”. I’ve never thought of a man needing to feel this way. Thanks for making me think outside of the box.
