power beyond measure

power beyond measure

one can never know the extent of power
until it is in our hands

power, has the ability to change a life, to save a life, to harm a life. Power; it is both dangerous and useful, it all depends on the individual, on what you make of it. It is a force that cannot be contained, it is inexorable…

uno nunca puede se saber el alcance del poder
hasta que esté en nuestras manos

Its in the pebble in my palm,
in the swallow in the air,
In the rain on my skin,
in the wind lifting my hair

I hold it to lose it…

    Very wise. Love the last line, could have several meanings… if I hold onto it, it is taken OR I want to lose it because its like hot coals but the only way of releasing the pain is through gripping it tighter… a paradox of power. Well said Fiona, wise soul.

    Thank so Jim for your very thoughtful comment, i like how you have seen a paradox of power, as to me, that is just what power is, it gives yet takes at the same time. :) Thank you Jim

    Some things in life just ARE, and when you try to controle it, define it, understand it, or hold it, it IS no more. It’s everywhere, it’s nowhere. great work ms Fiona
