this day
asked nothing
of me
but a willingness
to let go

Good one, Paul...again, its a known feeling and that asking is our own mind seeking its peace, i thought :)

Paul Smith said...

Thanks Devika. A life-long lesson I think...

Yes Paul...perhaps each day asks us to do that - thats been a tough lesson to me too...But then, we learn that doing it day after day -being alone, but with people is comfortably peaceful than to isolate totally :)

May be I must add, Paul

Being alone...is kind of my nature, in life I have a good family and many frends....

because readers here might think i'm a hopeless loner...thats not the case...for the past some days, i was tackling some such mails!

wishes,
devika

Hi Devika, for myself solitude is an essential part of my life (the essential part perhaps!) I love company too and hope my solitude offers fruit for those I journey with.

Devika Jyothi said...

Yes Paul..You understand and said it better :)

wishes,
devika
