Margherita: So true...even a miss-step or backward step does not mean you are off the Path--you are still on and will eventually move foreward.(not like the treadmill where you never move foreward!) Enjoyed the spiritual senryu! Al |

Well, maybe none falls from the path, but it sure seems my path is a lot longer than I signed up for. Maybe for some of us less observant types we're led around in circles just for the kicks of the pathsetters. Truthfully, there is substance to your words... I'm just feeling a bit irksome today. I'm probably overdue for some enlightenment right about now, and not of the enjoyable sort. |

Thank you, dear Ruth, yes we perceive it as a great challenge no doubt. Had never heard the word "klutz". It reminded me of the German "Klotz" and indeed it means the same thing ... but I don't think you are "klutz" Whether you try hard or not, you walk the Path, dear Owl, and you do it with much grace, in my eyes, yes. Thank you! That's a lovely thought, dear Ebonygirl. Thank you for enjoying my words. Thank you, dear Michael, for your loving comment. You made me smile with the thought of the kicks ... I believe the "Pathsetter" reaches out to you with comforting encouraging hugs rather than kicking you around. While we live we learn ... you are aware of Divine Love and Light, nothing more is needed. Thank you, dear Lori, I love your thought. And there is always a helping hand to put us back on our feet. Enjoy the Path! Love, Margherita |

Quite a few fell, and I'm sorry to say I was one of them, Margherita, but I've climbed back aboard the enlightenment train. ~~ Those who are silent are the first to be shot. ~~ |

Dear Jerry, I know. Those who have struggled are welcomed back on the track with more joy and celebration than those who never were apparently lost. I say apparently, because LIFE does not permit anyone to get permanently lost. That is my very firm belief. Thank you for being here. Dear James, yes yes I know most of us take their deviations, but we are connected to the One and only Path to enlightenment, let's say with an invisible silver string, that makes it possible to find our legitimate and safe place on it again. Trust. Have a wonderful Sunday, Poet friends. Peace. M |
