Without Stain

Always Continue The Climb
Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it. ~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox
The Tide Will Turn
When you get into a tight place & everything goes against you, till it seems you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place & time that the tide will turn.
A Solitary Soul
I’m a solitary soul, without love at my side, A life alone, with just myself to keep. I’ve no hand to hold, no man in whom to confide, No comfort in the night, no kiss upon my cheek.
Plenty by Emily Romrell
Plenty is abundance in life,
Personal growth underway,
Happiness that no knife,
Can cut or strip away.
If you look it’s waiting for you,
Every single day.
Pick Up Your Pen And Write
If you want to change the world, pick up your pen and write. ~ Martin Luther
The Oldest And Strongest Emotion
The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown. ~ H.P. Lovecraft
She’s Gone
Tonight I woke from a bad dream, And it took several moments for reality To fill back through me the way you feel cold water going down on a hot day.
Sunflowers
All flowers are happy in their way,
But dear Helianthus you win the day.
Every aspect of your nature is sunny.
Even your face tracks its eponym across the sky.
