The Name above perplexes, 

Our vaulted visions vex us. 

The Dream told through the ages, 

Torn out from modern pages. 


Though its hidden sparks remain, 

Guarded, by our greatest pains… 



The Honey in the Pain… 


As I took those bold first steps, 

Did Dad catch me so I could rest? 

Dare walk backwards from me!  

That it was a test, I didn’t see. 


Walking without thought,  

Now realizing what I’ve got… 



The Honey in the Pain… 


You’ve stung me so much, I can’t fathom your touch. 

But through it I’ll work, if you’re also willing to hurt. 

‘Cause to talk brings it out, takes away our doubt, 

Above-all we’re both here, despite common fears. 


So this suffering has served its purpose, 

The tears shed out, strengthened and conserved us… 


The Honey in the Pain…

You and your family deserve to be together, so it's my genuine honour to be able to help a little bit, you're very welcome :)

You're most welcome :)
And I appreciate the help again. You're a kind soul

You don't know how timely that is. I really needed that... Thanks...

And yw, it's a joy :)

You're very welcome as well. We all need to uplift one another, we never know where each of us are in our lives, when we have fallen and scraped a knee or our face is buried in dirt and grim, but we are all brothers and sisters desiring friendship and love, so it is my pleasure to give what I can, even through words, because words and intentions that fuel them have much power in this life.

If you've read my posts about the Hebrew language, then you know how much your comment resonates with me. Intentions through words, are the seeds for everything that is real. Like the feeling in me, that your vocal support and friendship generates, and like anything that will ever come from it. (B"H) And since we can either create or destroy with words, your comment also reminds me to strive to put more care into the words I choose to use, or not...

Makes me think of;

"Whoever destroys a soul, it is considered as if he destroyed an entire world. And whoever saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world." (Yerushalmi Talmud 4:9, Babylonian Talmud Sanhedrin 37a.)

Thanks brother :)
