BETTER THAN ME…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDCnBhTK-ik
My eyes on the prize for me
to be better than me
The change I see for me
is to be better than me
I raise the bar for me
to be better than me
I’ve learned its better for me
to compete with nobody else but me
to be better than me…
*
At my own pace I walk
to be better than me
I run my own race for me
to be better than me
Higher, stronger, wiser
I climb for me
to be better than me
I dance to the beat
of my B-drum for me
to be better than me…
*
There’s something deep inside of me
I’m learning to love
that is better than me
There’s something better than me
that loves me better than me
There’s a love
that can never be quenched
that is better than me
Every one step closer
in this life I’m journeying
is to be better than me,
I write this letter to me for me
to be better
than me…

There’s something great here, something subtle and beautiful but explosive, like chewing bunch of cayenne pepper, something that does not require a scoreboard but continues to dart, and jumps into within, transcending boundaries, approaching the higher self.
This is a perpetual struggle with great will and spirit!
You have an unusually fascinating expressive perspective. Thank you Albert!
A special for special brother…
I try each day to be better than the day before. That is what keeps me strong. Great poem Bradley!
Constant baby steps with the correct soul food you will create your own metamorphic processes. Then when you’re ready you will arrive at your season, like the Phoenix Rising into the being you were created to be. Be you!
Wayfarers are the undisputed kings of sunglasses, IMHO
I can’t agree more. They have been a trademark since the 50’s right until the new millennium for the Italian gangsta, showbiz and the average man in the street. Not always main stream but constantly there.
Fads come and go but quality never goes out of style
Thank you tasartcraft……
Amazing Bradley! I love this part… “There’s something deep inside of me I’m learning to love
that is better than me”
Believe or not when I was writing this I had all of us in mind. All of us who are connected thru this journey of life. Thank you Carol!!
I can believe that. Writing is so powerful. Especially when you write from within. My emotions just spill out lately.
In this society, there isn’t nearly enough emphasis on becoming our truest selves. Most folks aren’t even familiar with the concept, but Bradley has described the concept brilliantly here
Bradley always hits the mark. The rest of society need to pay attention to his words.
Modern day society are like blinded robotic sheep going down the wrong way on the right road. Thank you for your insight!
I do believe that some of us are more kinetically connected on this site. It seems that more and more we are discovering a higher purpose at work in the grand scheme of things.
You really do have a knack for describing complex ideas in a simple yet evocative way…
We can do better and have the better version of us.
Absolutely correct! This is part of the assignment here on earth.
I hope people will realize this. It is simple and tend to refuse to change though.
I think for this very reason some of us have been given the gift of art. We have to keep trying even if only for the remnant.
I guess I have it. It needs a lot of time and effort. Soon, my friend.
