I trudged along countless pathways Traveled the continents far and wide Climbed mountains where none had gone before Crossed rivers seemingly wide as a sea Walked through the woods and did not see the majesty Attended festivals in far off places hearing not a sound Dined on the finest cuisine with an asleep palate Looked at mirrored walls and saw no reflection Carried a satchel of burdensome shattered dreams Drank wine with strangers in far-away places Awoke one morning in your arms Realizing then why the arduous journey. |

The road and trails and streams and seas were your blueprint to find what you found. Nice work. ~ I think we should only read books that wound and stab us.-Kafka ~ |

A lot of philosophy in this one. (1)We should never stop searching for what we want, regardless of the defeats along the way. (2) We should never settle for less than what we want to find. (3) If we are happy at the end, everything was worthwhile. Not sure if you intended all that or not but, as always, your words send me along many paths. In other words, you stimulate my mind. That's a compliment.....  |

That was a most precious and life changing moment, no doubt. Blessed awareness, you expressed it so well. Love, Margherita |
