Loneliness And Poverty

I believe every human being and some animals at times are faced with the idea of loneliness and poverty. It may come and go.
THERE IS SUCH A THING AS SPIRITUAL POVERTY and poverty is a word that covers much.

There is financial poverty...

There is real hunger, for instance in third world countries. (Now that is impoverished!)

This is writing about "Loneliness and Poverty", the song and the subject.

I wrote the song "Loneliness and Poverty", after a long thought of my fellow man and friends who are homeless and outcast and poor. Take for instance a person who hardly has a quarter for bus fare or food. How might it feel to have nowhere to go and no one to see?

I imagined myself lying on a park bench with nothing but time...no money, not a dime....a transient outsider, banished from family and friends. I went there. I put my own abandonment, loneliness, and fear (all I had ever imagined and experienced) into what another being might be feeling, in hopes of feeling the pain and letting it go. (I went to the place we all are meant to face, and came out the other side)

Why? For my own Wholeness, Freedom, and Justice. I wrote the song "Loneliness And Poverty", knowing the good that would come from my song. (Wholeness, Freedom, Justice)

"Loneliness And Poverty", hmmm I don't buy it and consider it a lie. The breath of life is gift enough for me to rejoice. It was my heart's desire to expose the truth. It was my heart's desire to remind people, that "Loneliness and Poverty" is a state of mind, and not the truth. It was my need to be healed and my purpose to heal others.

Today I have freedom. I do think it takes a bit of effort when the feeling comes to expose the lie-and take control of the mind with right thoughts. It is not anything outside of ourselves that make us whole or complete, but the state of our mind and heart inside that determines our outward lives. There is always someway to GIVE; some way to LIVE free from "Loneliness and Poverty".

Now I am still young and have a way to go, so I do not claim to know everything but today I believe "Loneliness and Poverty" is a deceptive state of mind. Let it go...let it go...
