Dust Me Off Tavish

Dust the thoughts that life is sane
Dust me off

Dust the reason that makes it plain
Dust me off

Dust the doubts of love remain

My Catalyst of Change

There is a reason we have met
And connected
It’s true there are always reasons
But some reasons have greater purpose
A more powerful meaning
More than others at time
You recognize these… by how they make you feel
“Feel” being the key word here
Feelings are your gates to God
Your highest thought
Your truest meaning
Words are usually from man
But feelings are from God
There are many ways, which God speaks to you
In words
In music
In thoughts
But the one she speaks to you the most through is feeling
Feelings are the door to your soul
I am not sure my angel what this all means right now
But I do know this is a rare moment
So for now, I will hold you dear
Until my heart is paused
This time I am listening
I am not running anymore
Against my worldly reason
Because my love my feelings are out of this world
Out of my mind

You have become my highest thought; the one which contains Joy
My clearest words; those which contain truth
And my grandest feeling; that feeling which I call love.

Simplicity is the outward sign and symbol of depth of thought.

Who can estimate the elevating and refining influences and moral value of flowers with all their graceful forms, bewitching shades and combinations of colors and exquisitely varied perfumes? These silent influences are unconsciously felt even by those who do not appreciate them consciously and thus with better and still better fruits, nuts, grains, vegetables and flowers, will the earth be transformed, man's thought refined, and turned from the base destructive forces into nobler production. One which will lift him to high planes of action toward the happy day when the Creator of all this beautiful work is more acknowledged and loved, and where man shall offer his brother man, not bullets and bayonets, but richer grains, better fruit and fairer flowers from the bounty of this earth.
