Horizons Around Us
()
About this ebook
I hope that words alone are enough to convey what it is I have discovered about the illusions of living - most pertinently, the illusion of freedom. The goal is to reach out to our horizons and live in ways as true as possible to our nature. Those that block us from the horizons are the despots of life, and they are the bane of existence.
From the oneness of existence to the conscious desire to escape our daily bindings, I take a journey to the horizons around us and report back what it is I have found.
These thirteen poems cover a lot of ground, culminating in my wish for all others to simply be true to themselves.
No adult-only content.
Robin Xavier Fontaine
I was born and raised near Montreal, Quebec, midway through the baby-boom, the second of three daughters. (How I got the middle name Xavier is a story in itself.)I started out with a disability, and eventually became a differently-abled person. I have learned in my life that with the three H's, Hope, Humor, and Humility, life offers more than enough rewards.The branches of a tree grow upward and outward, yet in life, our branches can all come back together again in a great knot, and a new tree begins growing upwards - awkward picture, isn't it? Recently I have found tranquility, love, and inspiration, and so it's as though life is beginning all over again. I hope to share my optimistic disposition with my readers; to know your limits, yet hope and strive for your dreams, is what brings out our truest humanity.I now share a Twitter account with my old ex, Robert E Vonne - check out our tweets. @robinrobin55Peace and cheers!
