Discernment Stories

Collection of daily ponders about life and the journey through it.

Not all people are built the same. Some forgive, some never forget. Some hold grudges that span lifetimes. Others hold influence invisible to the naked eye - capable of lifting or destroying your path with a single word, gesture, or silence. To treat all people as equal in temperament, ego, or power is a dangerous illusion. This law is about clarity: knowing who you stand before, recognizing the hidden weights they carry, and adjusting accordingly. Offend the wrong person, and your downfall is sealed. Respect the dynamics at play, and you preserve your path to ascend higher.

People are not alone. In the hustle and bustle of city life, it can be paradoxical; one can be surrounded by people yet feel completely alone. Everyone around him is a stranger, an unfamiliar face. It could take years before first contact is made, names exchanged, and stories shared. It becomes lonely and unpleasant. Daniel moved to the city in hopes of something. He didn't anticipate on moving next door to an unruly acquaintance. Finn was an eccentric fellow who meant well but was rarely understood by those around him. He'd developed a harmless liking to Daniel in their honors English class, but his friendship was was not reciprocated. Daniel often ignored Finn due to the pressures exhibited by high school to "fit in" and be a part of the mainstream. Daniel is in danger, so his guardian angel has to physically manifest itself to be of greater assistance. Alex can by no means conflict with Dan's free will, but merely offer suggestions. Alex is neither female nor male in reality, but in order to allow greater ease of moving around, Alex has been assigned to appear as a girl. Since Alex is a heavenly being, no romantic interest between "her" and another human is plausible. Dan does not know Alex is an angel, but for some unknown reason Finn does.

This is a three quatrain poem using free verse as its form.

Our minds can separate from reality. What is desirable may look like a dream. And a dream may look repulsive. To reach our calling, we need to embrace the suffering and identify instant pleasure and long term pain. Our discernment is the difference between choosing love and choosing the idea of lust. Know the signs. Head the warnings. Then indulge in the gift of happiness.
