Arroe Collins The Choice The Silent Wolf

Thanks for being part of the conversation I am the Poet In The Forest. A children series I penned out in the 1990s. None of it would be possible if it wasn’t for this forest in South Charlotte, NC. I talk about it so much that I thought maybe it’s time you get to meet all that inspires me. Thanks for being part of the conversation

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… What’s more likely to happen, Russia digs deeper into the soils of Ukraine, the United States Invades Venezuela or China takes over where Taiwan left off? I took that question to Chat GPT. I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate. I call it The Daily Mess. A chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes, it’s my morning writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later. When a subject arrives, I dig in. It’s still keeping a journal! By doing the research the picture becomes clearer. This is the Daily Mess…

When it’s extremely difficult to make up your mind. Having the power of choice can actually weaken someone. On this episode we’re going to explore our power of choice. Are we losing it? Plus…The art of learning how to accept other people’s choices. I’m Arroe. Life is a series of choices. Who decides when you’re not making it the right choice? Is it the fear of going wrong? The greatest lessons in life are often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts. It’s time to reopen your heart. Having a choice is a daily gift. On this highway we learn to trust mirages… What is the choice?

The ups, downs, twists, spins, near falls and face planting in the walls. We have faith. We believe in the spirit. We are being replanted into areas that have always been there. Love peace and forgiveness. It's not an app you can download. Through the power of choice, we bond with other circles of interpretation. It's from that walk that very bad can actually be really good.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Is it ok to openly talk about what you dreamed about last night? Are you doing harm or opening doors?

Thanks for being part of the conversation…Welcome to Forest Stories. A series of short-winded adventures within a collection of skyscraping trees stuck feet first in Georgia Clay right here in Carolina. It’s been a huge part of my daily writing journey for over 33 years.I’m the Poet In The Forest. A children’s series written and recorded in the 1990s.It’s grown into multiple podcasts that reach around the world.None of it would be possible without this forest in South Charlotte, NC.At the base of Heartbreak Hill sits a sign that reads Rainbow Forest. It’s time you meet what’s inspired several generations.Long before the paved paths decorated with colorful homes colonized around this beautiful lake, slow moving streams, flatland swamps and array of natural animals, there were families and business owners who are said to have raced into this area for the beauty of the land, wild roses, migratory birds and grapevines. Those before me either forgot to write about it or its buried somewhere inside a family tree. Thanks for being part of the conversation

Is there anything we can turn to for love and support that isn't attached to a digital device? We're traveling between mindsets at the speed of light. Are we getting enough love, forgiveness, and compassion from others? This would explain why we have been overtaken by a calendar of events. Keep busy in the name of not feeling like you've been left out. Shooting from the hip is acceptable. For some reason we aren't bothered by restructured hand me downs.

Our personal stories of struggle. Sometimes the best way to heal is to be present. It has an energy that helps us become clearer and more available. It's almost like that kid statement, "It takes one to know one." Trusting those who've lived the same rumbles, stumbles and setbacks. The deepest healing doesn't have to include a guilt tripping Bible verse.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Has the world always been this confusing? How much is social media playing into this? Plus…how many of us are living a life of totally being in fear of losing something? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf.

Is there still hope? Too much confusion! The opposite side of a meandering wonder become an open-door access to anxiety and worry. We're all afraid of losing something. This is where we sit. I can still hear my mother telling me to keep my hands to myself. Don't snoop! Let the universe have total control. We're getting in the way of a much higher plan.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… The music we hear in our head, where does it come from and why is it endlessly playing even when we want silence? Plus… Bread. Very few don’t like bread, mainly the end piece called the heel. Why? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.

Living in a forest for over three decades introduces your senses to many different experiences. One of them being the scent of death. Pulling back the lens, what can we learn from a change in the atmosphere that doesn't agree with our visions of moving forward?

Believe it or not, we each passing day we as regular real people are invited to lift the spirit of the universe to the top of the path. It is to help inspire any passerby to keep believing in trust, faith and hope. You cannot have a fulfilled life if all you ever did was receive. It's about losing as well. Are we at a turning point? Hardly... most choose to break free and run back to assumed happier times. We've totally forgotten how to embrace gratefulness.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Why does it feel like we eat more food and sweet between Halloween and New Years Day? Plus…facing your lifelong goal of seeking out all things delicious. I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.

It's completely natural to base your life story on the interpretation of where you presently stand. I'm no doctor to tell you it's healthy but the junk needs to get out of your trunk. We play the telephone game with how it really went down. Each time a subject is brought up it's given a little twist. After a few years leading into decades... what's the real adventure?

Seeking balance... We assume we're standing stronger when in fact most of us would be late for our funeral. Awareness. Our priorities are constantly evolving. I won't say change. With change there's more change because we'll keep changing until we locate the right function or channel. Don't fix me later. Fix me now.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… At what age does the average person realize they weren’t given the perfect life?

We are living in an age of having to digest the effects that were played out before we got to where we presently stand... It's the morning after. Dealing with it can be life changing as well as lifelong. It's the morning after! How do you deal with it?

So many of us are stuck at base camp facing a giant daily mountain. This is where the power of choice comes into play. This isn't an act of seeks but rather leading. Time to turn your ego in at the door. A path isn't always a path. There's always a tree root remaining. The type that sits on the edge of the earth waiting to trip whatever mind isn't willing to pick up their feet. Shuffling through it, wearing out the soles of your walking shoes in the way of hoping that we each new pair there's a new adventure.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Seaweed. My god, it’s everywhere! So many flavors to choose from! But is seaweed good for us? Plus…my rescue Jazzie the disaster artist Pointer loves seaweed, is it ok to share it with our animals? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf.

When it’s extremely difficult to make up your mind. Having the power of choice can actually weaken someone. On this episode we’re going to explore the daily battles to live in a very clean home or hangout in one that looks and feels lived in. Plus…making the choice to leave Christianity for witchcraft.

With so much giving and taking running freely about the planet, why wouldn't one man's trash be another man's treasure? Is it because we're addicted to everything being new and improved? People endlessly want something of value. No matter what business you walk into, they expect a tip. Way too easy to receive. When what we expect doesn't have a payout our hearts head straight for a tailspin. We as humans do want more but is it a handout or a hand me down?

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Good news versus bad news… as a team, do they feed our addiction to wanting to know everything? Plus…why are there so many accents not only around the world but in our local communities? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf.

When we receive are we willing to share? They say that when you die you can't take anything with you. I don't agree with that. If you do not plant your gifts received in life forward by sharing with those next in line, you took it. It was never yours to keep.

God is looked upon as being a loving father, a healer and listener yet remains completely invisible. This is where faith, trust and hope enter our hearts. We'll openly talk about modern day miracles while one foot is stuck inside the realms of click bait on the internet. False fortresses. Now the bill is due. We are expecting too much in very little time. Yet, we're ok if Amazon takes up to five days to deliver. I have no clue how God compassionately forgives us. Truth is if it were us we'd look at another person and shout out, "Figure it out!

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… A city slicker wonder. Do modern day farmers and ranchers rely on the internet as well as AI technology to stay ahead of the agriculture game? Plus…when discovering the powers of the universe, can it be described as locating a needle in a haystack? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf.

Being a huge part of the digital generation has come with a massive price that's come due. Being physically disconnected from human contact has turned us into solo hot shots that rely on text messaging and camera phones to think we are united with all we come in contact with. That's not how we were designed. The new age of friendship and family has finally turned itself around and we are getting together in ways where we can smell each other's breath.

It feels like everything is coming at us much faster than the speeds of light and sound. Completely created by the imagination. The entire planet is being fueled by anxiety, all people, all nations and that means the surface f the chosen walk is being blocked by the idea we can write any story before it happens.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… The importance of outreach… are we doing it right? Are we enabling takers to grab even more? Plus…outreach versus hoarding. Who decides when it’s too much? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.

It's not been an easy walk. In fact, in 2011 when I challenged myself to lose 50 pounds by 50 years in age, I had no clue what I was getting into. In 2025 that weight loss has no stretched to nearly 70 pounds lost. Along the path you begin to realize that getting control of your weight isn't just about eating the right food, what are you thinking and how are you allowing your thoughts to move through your mind body and soul?

Courage, confidence and ability. Yet, we all stand here with our hands in our pockets. Outreach is a brilliant tool. Are we using it correctly or enabling? Isn't empathy putting ourselves in the shoes of those who are receiving? Are we giving too much? Led are the takers who are hoarding whatever they can. Is this really outreach?

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… How important is prayer and meditation? This isn’t a religious piece. It’s just a conversation. Plus…how can we center ourselves better in the way of taking note of what peace is versus what we assume through other people’s content? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf.
