A Burning Rocking Chair

I wish a worry would get you nowhere.
But I know a worry is so powerful that
It can get you to a hell of the size of your choice.

Sitting on the burning rocking chair of worry,
You'll soon find yourself burning in invisible fire.
Your mind is fixed with what you fear the most
And you know you can live in a hell
Even before you do something bad and die.

You can go to a personal hell
Whenever you are caught in a worry.

But a hope can take you to the heaven
Even before you do good things and die.

The Hell can be within you
So can the Kingdom of God.

Hi, Peter,

It is choice of the person, as well as mind over matter - when one relishes in bad or negative things, a hell is created within; when one contemplates on good or positive things, the kingdom of God is at hand.

Thanks for sharing.

Joe

Thanks, Joe!

Actually this one was inspired by the picture on your blog. (You should already know...)

Thank you again!

Pete
