Statements

The straightest point between

Two lines a short distance.

 

The scenic route is

Lined with roses.

 

All roads lead to

Roaming.

 

The unimpeded stream

Is speechless.

 

A waist is a terrible

Thing to mind.

 

Many proofs are

At the end of the day.

 

Love conquers all,

But often woos.

 

If I beg for mercy,

Grace is thrown in.

 

Thankfulness is one

Root of goodness.

 

A gift received,

A gift given…that’s life.

 

The fear of the Lord

Is the beginning of wisdom.

    The unimpeded stream
    Is speechless.

    Reminds me of a phrase I was asked to respond to when I underwent Neuro psychological testing.
    “Shallow brooks babble loudly.”

      It’s actually a misquote from Wendell Berry…

      “It may be that when we no longer know what to do,
      we have come to our real work
      and when we no longer know which way to go,
      we have begun our real journey.

      The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
      The impeded stream is the one that sings.”

      Do you know why they asked that question to you?

        Your tag noted Wendell Berry. I was curious which one. Love reading him.

Thanks for your time and thoughts.
