My eyes are screaming silent tears
My mind bleeds in words unspoken
Misery melts into unmeasurable years
Why can my heart not stay unbroken?

Peace eludes my sleepless nights
Vague desires stain my dreams
I hold on tight to hope's dim light
My pain is not always what it seems.
Amethyst Autumn Angel Author Icon - This piece is exactly what I was looking for. How eloquent your words, and the juxtoposition is fantastic. Excellent. Congrats. Which badge do you want?

Crissy~Baby! Author Icon - I'm open to any I don't have yet *Smile* You can find those by going to a person's Community tab, then Merit Badges (#### here), "Checklist" in the upper right corner, "Needed Badges," then do a page search for the words "give it!" I hope that isn't too confusing *Hug1**Smile**Hug2*

Thank you so much for this, it was a lovely challenge *Heartt*
Is stealing jobs legal if the employee has signed a contract with the government?
  •   7 comments
Spiritual Dawning Author Icon - I'm not used to involving myself in the chaos that is American politics. But a curiosity for the fairness of government employees is a matter of humanism. I think if they entered into a contract for a government job, then our leaders must give their jobs back.
Richard 😀🎵 Author Icon - I was thinking of existing contracts. Like labor and teacher unions. Federal employees, even congress members were elected through conventional elections. That's a contract between the congress members and the constituents who elected them. It's (if nothing else) a verbal contract.
Crissy~Baby! Author Icon - Yes, it does seem all a little harsh to steal jobs. It truly isn't right.

Are we really that different from one another? I mean DNA is God's unique identifier for us, and we have individual goals and dreams, but we all need love. We all need hugs. Let's start the Kindness Initiative in our lives. Will you hold a door, or get something from the top shelf? Every good thing comes from above. Kindness is a fruit of the Spirit. Each good thing we do will cost something. Time. Effort. Money. Do you have a little to spare? September has an awareness campaign for suicide awareness. People commit suicide because of bullies many times. Spread kindness to counteract the hate. Hope is born when kindness is introduced.
I mean, really sit with yourself and ask if you are kind to people, family and strangers alike.
Happy Anniversary, sorry I missed your day, I haven't been on lately. x
Happy 20th WDC Anniversary, Crissy!
