Can We Change the Future by Choosing Our Cycles? Choose Wisely With Joy and Laughter

Cycles

We’ve certainly had our share of problems in cycles of the Past.

“History Repeats Itself” as we see time and time again.

All we have to do is read, sense, study to recognize the last

Horrific crime, discrimination, suffering, and pain.

What is the human experience teaching us?

And why must we listen to the doomsayers’ tragedy

Instead of happiness, love, goodness and trust?

Great deeds of honor, peace, caring laced through infinity

Dwell in our earth’s saga, just as prevalent.

We have to choose to remember and relive those dreams.

We must think about what is inspiring and abundantly relevant.

We can learn from past successes, ignore the troubling schemes

And bring into reality future cycles of good health and joy.

It is up to each individual what they reach for and search.

What gifts of the soul they choose to employ.

What roles of yesteryear they decide to rehearse.

We can change negative cycles into loving, healing guidance.

Recycle our beliefs and memories into beautiful reformations.

Let us giggle; let us smile; let us sing and dance!

Let us change “History Repeats…” into a positive affirmation.

It starts with each one of us and cycles forward and onward …

Forever, together, in heaven on earth, in rebirth, in laughter.

To enjoy our lives today, tomorrow, for all cycles hereafter.

For Renee and all who touch her heart as she has touched ours.

Kindle Edition: Pockets of Chaos: Poems and Stories by Linda L. Labin 

Linda L. Labin has it all in her latest book, “Pockets of Chaos: Poems and Stories.” Do you want to laugh until you’re about to split a gut? “Shakespeare’s Generic Bar and Grill.” Then, you turn the page and sadness fills your heart: “Daddy Died.” Or you feel the fear and rage at the events of: “May 4, 1970.” You ponder with Linda: “The Existential Questions.” And this does not even begin to scratch the surface!

An incredible sense of humor. None like I’ve ever seen before, and I make fun and create word-puns on just about everything! “English is Quirky,” Linda tells us, and she is so right!

This book covers every emotion ever dreamed of by humankind and probably a few more thrown in that are uniquely Labin. She talks (yes! you can literally hear her speaking!) about everything from very informational heritage and genetics, to aging, to love, to loss, to gloss and glimmer, to stories and poems that will brighten your day, jog your memory, teach you, reach you, beseech you, search your mind in ways you never thought possible.

Hilarious, inspirational, frightening, nostalgic with wit, wisdom, endearing nonsense, based on her incredible life and experiences, both in fact and fiction.

Written in lovely little snatches that say so much … perfect for the beach or on a cold winter night before retiring; and the best way I know to greet every day! This, of course, would be the second, third, fourth, fifth time you read it because you have to gulp it down the first few times, not letting go of one single bite or losing the savor in each yummy morsel. You just can’t stop reading “Pockets of Chaos” again and again and again and again. This is a book to love and cherish for your whole life, just as it reflects a full life of honesty, integrity, and empathy.

Enjoy!
