"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."

PROMPT: March 25th - Why do you write? What motivates you to continue learning and enhancing your skill? Is there something specific you want to improve on? How will you go about doing so?

What Motivates Me To Write?

My motivation has changed over the years. Now it's the desire to write and reading the scriptures and prayer revealed by The Bab, Baha'u'llah, and 'Abdu'l-Baha. In 2019, my motivation is to write 200 poems dedicated to The Bab. I have completed six poems and placed them in "Bicentenary Poems and Prose" , with the poems that I wrote in 2017 dedicated to Baha'u'llah.

DAY 2318: Title Prompt: The Golden Years. Take this in any direction you want.

The Golden Years

Why do we call them The Golden Years,
when for many
they are full of fears and tears.

Yesterday, I wonder why they were called the golden years. Many senior citizens are living on a fixed income that needs to be fixed because they don't have enough to pay bills and purchase medication at the same time. Yesterday, my mood was focused on the darker side of life because I didn't, and still don't, have enough money coming in in April to pay all my bills. Fortunately, I have SNAP, senior commodities, and a food bank within walking distance; so I won't starve in April. I'll pay the rent, but I still owe $100.00 on the security deposit; which I don't have enough to cover and pay other bills.

I have two doctor's appointments this month and one next month. I think two of those three will cost me a co-pay in addition to what I pay Paratransit to take me there and bring me home. I have enough for the paratransit rides and--the possible--co-pay on Wednesday. The only thing I have to worry about is getting enough for the paratransit on Friday to my regular doctor, which normally doens't cost me a co-pay. I don't have to worry about prescriptions because I get them through my insurance company's mail order pharmacy, which doesn't cost me anything out-of-packet.

This afternoon, I'm in a half-way decent positive mood. The reason is that I've place the financial situation in God's hands. I also spent the morning doing surveys in one of my survey groups, and qualified for several surveys. Qualifying for surveys helps my positive mood. In addition, I was able to access my Cox inbox, and I wasn't able to do that yesterday. I Cox people couldn't help me; apparently all I need to do was reboot the computer.

My Golden Years
are a mixture of gold
and lead.

I'll have to take a break from writing and online work to meditate on a solution to my financial problems. I know there is one. I can find it if I don't get depressed.

DAY 1924: What do you think about collecting and collections--whether it is your collection or one belonging to someone else? Can it belong to a character in a fiction piece or a poem you’re writing, and could it be an object you would like to collect?

Collections

I used to be a collector. I used to be a clutterer. I'm working on changing both. I've got rid of the collection clutter. I'm planning on getting rid of a lot more. In fact, I'm planning on doing a "Swedish 'Death Purge'". I have to do a little more research before I start the declutter process in earnest. I also have to figure out what to do with a few items that belong to my brother, which I've lugged through too many moves. I can't afford to send them through the mail, so I need to figure out who will be in the area in the next few months so that person can take to items and do whatever he want with them.
