The Compass Within

A wanderer studied each chart,
Yet still felt a pull in his heart.
Though maps showed the way,
His compass would say—
“True north is the place where you start.”

By Paul Baldry (LongJohn)

Life offers many paths and many voices. Yet the truest direction often rises quietly from within, guiding us beyond the limits of any map.

Reflections on Life

Love and Pain

“Love is not without pain,
And will surely bring pain.
A broken heart may hurt,
But resilience and trust in each other
May cure both.”


Of course, it also allows for a choice—
The choice of freedom.

Lessons of Choice

“Choice is a lesson in itself—
A lesson of right and wrong.
No matter the choices we make in life,
They will shape and build
Our sagacity.”

By Paul Baldry (LongJohn)
