Hi, hope this finds you well. Woke up to another lovely morning here. Bit on the cold side but lovely. Woke up with a mind full of story’s and thoughts. Came up with the idea to write a poem knowing absolutely nothing about same. The end result is below. Not really a poem but the idea was there. Nothing in it is meant to give offense just written with an open heart and my current knowledge set.
I
I know nothing.
I used to start my prayers in this manner.
How can I truly hope to understand anything?
Without first admitting my complete and utter ignorance.
I am 45 with a little flare of madness I personally love but
it comes with pain. Some would argue I am utterly mad and
evil for my beliefs but oddly enough I disagree 😊,
But I know nothing.
II
Remember I know nothing. (seriously ask a woman they
will tell you 😊) There are about 7.8 billion people on
this planet. Which such brilliant diversity it could only
bring a smile of joy to the heart. However, there are
those who preach hate at this diversity to me they are
truly and utterly mad but I believe they learned this through
various means so, part of me feels sorry for them but If it
can be learned it can be unlearned. I must believe you are
not born with hate in your heart. Before I go further remember
I know nothing.
III
Science
I love science. It has saved a lot of lives it has helped humanity
boat loads. There are many points of view on the new vaccine.
I respect each and mine knowing I know nothing 😊. The Earth
is almost 400 miles in radius. The Milky Way (like the Galaxy
you know) is probably between 100,000 and 150,000 light years
across give or take like, (sounds big) The known Universe 93
billion light years in diameter (sounds bigger). Also thank God for
Goggle. The earth has been around for about 4.543 billion years
wow we really should continue the effort to respect Mother Earth
she is old. People are around about 300,000 years give or take a few
years. (seriously like google knows a lot but not everything) To place
that all in perspective I am about 5’8” and a half and 45 years old.
How the heck am I supposed to understand anything,
given the time frame and sizes involved. I learned to trust some,
and I have my Spiritual beliefs, but would be careful of those who
say they know it all. I give thanks to my ancestors whether they
used science or not they survived in a rough environment to allow
all this to be. However, one thing I do know is the look in my dog’s
eyes when I am going out the door. It is like devastating. I love the
way science changes it is point of view to suit new findings.
I know I love Science. Like mostly.
IV
I have seen and experienced true evil and true good
or at least my perception of them. I believe in a
Goddess/God that wants us to learn and grow in
love to such an extent he/she has placed us here to do so.
I honestly believe he/she does not want us here to suffer
and would encourage us to grow but like any good parent
watches their children learn and make their own mistakes.
Even when it truly hurts both to do so. That said what do I
know of Gods and Goddess, I know nothing. I would not argue
any of this with anyone as I remind myself again, I know nothing.
Yet I believe I am attached to an eternal soul that reaches far
back and will continue on after I am gone, and it has been my
honor to get this far in life and contribute to same. I have met
some brilliant people along the way. I may not have always seen
eye to eye but I learn and grow from each in my own unique way.
I believe most of them think I am mad, not sure if that is a good or
bad thing yet or both. I think it is both. Yah I know it is both.
V
I truly know nothing.
Do I write these things to make sense or something
resembling a sense of an understanding of a world and
universe where they may be none. Are these nice words
to sooth a troubled mind. That said I honestly believe the
Devine and Spirit have touched me with a sense of love and
bliss that feels like everything and more, and I just cry in joy
and pain when it comes. But I truly know nothing.
VI
Sure, would I know?
How could a man of a mere man of 45 years truly understand
anything. Other than I am going to enjoy my next cuppa with
a biscuit I should probably not eat after my Christmas. Also
learning love and compassion, doing my best to listen and
understand folk but my mind wonders sure I do my best.
Sure, what would I know?
Wishing Everyone the best
Love and light keep up the good fight.

I have been told one of my Spirit guides was brilliant guy below for a while mine change a lot. Looking at above I feel confirms it to some extent. I always like to say I have experiences but let people make up their own mind up and do my best to not judge them on their opinions of me which they are entitled to.
Below is link to self-care cards I would like to do any help including sharing gofundme campaign is much appreciated. See link for more info. gf.me/u/zfb9q3
