10 of 12 given words:
thought distress
indigence (a state of extreme poverty)
shift fog alone emboldened
happy bitterness eyes
thoughts in distress indigence of ideas
contending to shift gears out of the fog
alone embroiled in a conflict within
but largely not of his own undoing
emboldened push forward out of the rut
happy with no bitterness towards none
guilt deflected from eyes of Providence

I like the idea of shifting gears out of the fog and pushing forward out of the rut. Hopefully that does bring happiness.
ReplyDeleteI think we need to find ways to get out of the daily rut as then we can find happiness.
ReplyDeleteGetting a little happiness can sure help us push on through
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary at dverse, Hank.

Ah, it is good of him to push through and get out of the rut and find a glimmer of happiness. I wish that is how it goes for all of us too. :-)
ReplyDelete-HA
Nice shaping of past words--I love the notion that children are not born with negative tendencies--they must learn to be racist, or other "ist"s.
ReplyDeleteI like that: push forward out of the rut.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us Hank ~
"to shift gears out of the fog" Oh yes! Sometimes it feels like I'm trying to do that, even while sitting on the couch in my study with the bright sun shining through my window!
ReplyDelete"to shift gears out of the fog"... it is still a little misty for me but I'm coming along.
