deepwater,

"The Quest" was a well written writing poem. You submitted great imagery. I enjoyed the subject matter.--Kristen

Yes ( I am ) is your best friend, that is the name of God
We live accordingly with the choices we make, that is so true.

Nice work!

To live life the way you choose, is the best life to have. So often people are forced by others, or by circumstance to live in a way that is only surviving, without any contentment at all in it. Well done

Excellent. I can definitely relate. My favorite line is:And to be able to say, I am my best friend. How very true. So many people try to run away from themselves. Peace comes from within.

I love 'intimate wealth' - what a great phrase, perfectly capturing the value of friends and family. I love the gentle, thoughtful pace of this, and your individual lines that promote consideration.

What a great feeling to have while approaching the later years in life. Everyone speaks of "finding themselves", and maybe they go about it the wrong way. The piece you've written speaks of what's really valuable in life, and I totally agree with what you've said. This is a very well written poem.

Hi deepwater,

Enjoyed the read and it sounds as if you made the choice not to be what those well-lit avenues believe we should be and that you simply enjoy doing your own thing and that you feel you made the right decision. Good for you. It is a decision I made for myself too and I have never regretted it. Thank you for sharing.

Good Morning. It's nice to read someone new and something from your pen GW. I'm not quite sure I understood, "Only to bet your soul against the human unknown" Unless you mean, in your quest give it your all for the person you have yet to become ... ? Otherwise, very nice.
