Alan's Words

WORDS... Flowing like great rivers of water; expressive; vivid; revealing the inevitable hiddenness of human nature. WORDS... Ones not spoken by all, but understood by those who care to open theirminds; A precious gift. WORDS... Announcing truths with uninhibited force and the gentle voice of reason; relating; Bridging the gaps. YOUR WORDS... Move me, just as they will many more like me; Making paths for fresh viewings of the phenomenon of this world and allowing brilliant insight to become not so unusual; poetically whispering while chipping away the rock of ignorance. YOU... a breed deemed rare and almost sacred; Judged vital to society by prudent minds; assuredly marked for success; predestined to clarity the profound; to change the world. WE... as a people cannot afford your genius silenced. Speak it; write it; merge your potential with a sacrificial longing for compassion to abound. "How?" you say... by the GRACE OF GOD, of course. NEED... to be heard and people will listen; never lacking an audience. I, for one, believe in you and grant you my promise of heart felt honesty and encouragement: UNCONDITIONALLY. FIND YOURSELF... within yourself; knowing who you are by knowing who you are not. Who you are when you're not alone is your personality. Who you are when you are alone is your character. Know that your direction is guided and that the way is already made. To my true friend Alan Johnson ~1993 May you continue to rest in the bosom of our Lord. -LSM
