The Pounding – Poem – by Roger Hoyt

The Pounding

There is a disturbance in the force.
My mind isn’t running the normal course.
The head is pounding away.
I think my body is about to sway.
How can I even think?
When it hurts to just blink.
Is there no remedy for this?
Can I not find my peaceful bliss?
Perhaps a pill will suffice?
Day after day, I roll the dice.
Playing the game, but I’m alone.
I had it coming, should have known.
You can’t win every time.
The clock tics and the head does chime.

The Meaning Of Life

What is the meaning of life?  Have you ever pondered that question before?  I’m sure you as well as many others has.

While I don’t know everything, I can share what I believe is the meaning of life.  Now, this may not be the meaning of life for everyone, but can suffice for some.  If you have a different opinion on the meaning of life, I welcome your comments below.

The true meaning of life can be summed up by one thing…….Growth.  It’s the one thing we’ve done sense we were conceived at birth.  We start off as an Embryo and grow into a Fetus, etc, etc.  Drawing from this perspective it’s easy to see how one might draw a conclusion that we have only one purpose and that’s to grow.

But humans stop growing when they reach maturity right?  Not exactly.  See, people may physically stop growing, but what about their brains?  What about our mental capabilities?

Sure, some people seem to never grow up and always look like the childish adult who doesn’t know when to be serious.  I’m sure you know at least one person like that.

Some people end up going to college and become Philosophers, Astronomers, Physicist, Scientist, Doctors, and even Historians.  Others choose to take the other route and let their creativity flow, these people become our artist: Painters, Musicians, Sculptures, Engineers, and Fashion Designers.

What does this do for us?  It gives room for growth.  It allows our minds to open and expand inward.  Without growth, we wouldn’t be who we are today.  Without growth, mankind would not be what it has become today.

Through growth, we can strive to be a better person.  Through growth, we can make changes, starting from within.  Through growth, inspiration lives.

Many people are without jobs right now, myself included, but that’s not keeping me from trying to learn and grow.  That’s not stopping me from building my dream.  That’s not stopping me from creating my own reality.

Go for the gold.  Grow, Learn, Inspire.
