My Resolution letter for 2021!

 

RESOLUTION FOR 2021 (By: Karla Wagener)

In society it is common to see hypocritical, materialistic, individualistic, promiscuous, aggressive egocentric, prejudiced attitudes.

Also, can be found an orderly, organized, patriotic, loyal desire to promote solidarity and union.  It is a contradiction.

Isolation often stalks people, especially adolescents who find it difficult to make their way, or older people, or the weak and fragile who find themselves alone.

When I was young I didn´t dote on drugs or promiscuity, fast cars, violent sports or loud boisterous parties.  We were the odd ones.  My mom once talked to me about ¨late bloomers¨.  A friend once asked me, ¨What is wrong with us?¨

On December 1, 2020, I woke up from dreams at 4:20 a.m. about betting on numbers in a casino type place and some young kid followed me around so I gave him numbers to play and we didn’t win anything.  But the dream seemed prophetic to me.  It seemed all very good to me, like it was possible to win, and idealism was possible.

It will take more than money to achieve my dreams.  I bet all I have in what I believe in and feel sure (I see it happening in small ways), that it will surface.  I believe in conversion.  I believe in miracles.  I have hope in spite of this past year of 2020 with its many ups and downs, mostly on the downspin.  What will it take to make my dreams come true?

PSYCHOLOGICAL CROSS (By: Karla Wagener)

A lifelong contemplation

Has been a load of thought,

Getting to the roots through soul searching,

Listening deeply to lessons taught.

 

A cross chosen by free election,

Perhaps often quite unperceived,

Has brought forth resurrection

Of the growth of veracity.

 

The need to bring forth a pure, pure heart,

An unseen place inside

Where all the answers to every little thing, reside.

 

There exists more than can now be imagined.

(At one time having been the odd one …)

Requited as life advances, dear daughter, and dear sons!

So my resolution for 2021 is to try to accept people for what they are and point out things that bother me in a polite way.  I will listen to others´ comments too and try to become better.  I see the end to my journey is getting closer each year and the light at the end shines most principally in my dreams. So I will sing of spiritual things from my dreams.

THE CAGED BIRD´S SONG

(By: Karla Wagener)

It´s so hard to begin to sing.

If I could just start, I know I could get

To the innermost part

Of a broken heart.

 

It surely would heal.

Something good would come out

Of the hurt deep within

And help all that pain logout.

 

When I look in your eyes

I see your great pain.

I just don´t know

If I could help it refrane.

 

Love´d to break you

Out of your chains.

Show you other, better roads

To the promised land and plains.

 

See you free, to be

The best of all you can glitter forth in glee.
