Cracked Nuts!

9 Lines .........

Within ourselves, 

and beyond ourselves,

we live our lives.

.  .  .

Keeping a balance,

doable in 'normal' times,

is a Nut to crack now.

.  .  .

Dig down deep.

Strength and perspective

trump Cracked Nuts.

Perseverance, single minded strength, and fortitude indeed are beliefs needed to combat our self doubts. Having no one else in my life to blame for my successes and failures also puts the onus on me to make the right decisions and stand by them. I've definitely cracked a few nuts in my life, especially my own. Very thoughtful piece of wise poetry, Dylan. Great work.

Thanks Mary!
Your "daily chaos" nails it. Historically, nations and Individuals pay a sad-heavy price for it, practically and psychologically.
