      This is a similar themed piece to one I’ve been trying to write for ages.You’ve done a great job asking question about the decisions we make.
      We both know every action starts with a thought and that’s where the mind comes into play.If we’re fully awake and listening,our minds will see what the consequences of our actions will be.
      I for one try to remember “no harm to any sentient being”, not always easy do.
      I believe if a person’s intentions are good then, regardless of the law or societal norms, their actions are good.

      I’ve preached enough, when all I wanted to say was….great write.
      🙏

    With Eyelids Drawn

    With eyelids drawn, I look on, to a dawn that is now gone. So, I call on bygone dawnings, as I am an indrawn man. There is a spawning within the darkness of my shut lids. But I am sure my dawning will come, and the...
