Dear Readers,

after an interesting moving and phenomenal day, I will confess
that today's poem was inspired by the opening words of
Pope Francis at World Youth Day in Brazil. Very moving.

Hello my Readers,

Tonight's poem is inspired about what I discovered of myself today.
There is a phrase that I dread much, and from time to time it comes
haunting, but today I discovered a new angle of it; People -Pleaser!

Over the past month and half, I had to make few choices of letting
so many things that I had embraced; tonight I discovered while talking
it through that at times to embrace too much can also be a sign of
being a people-pleaser. Shocker!!!

I am indeed pleased I released myself of so many responsilibities, and
chose to focus on doing few things well. A professor of mine once
said: "There are times in life we are so busy serving God everywhere
that we forget to serve him with the very things He has entrusted us with".
So tonight's poem is a self acknowledgement, concise, haiku styled on
a few layers, repetitive.I am happy to be dedicating time to poetry again ...

Tonight I look at myself through the mirror of my writings, and
refuse to excuse myself.

I must now go and rest, as I am still recovering.

Good night and thank you

Hello my readers,

there are 10 min left before midnight, and I just finished writing.
Writing today unfolds slowly but surely throughout the day.
What inspired me today is a theme that kept repeating itself again
and again.

Children are the best example of attachment and detachment. So one poem
was inspired by them  (Poem 25) --- 150 /175/22

We are often called to renounce the world, our wealth,
ourselves in many  ways. Conversations seemed to evolve around that.  (Poem 26)

Once we reach that level we can say - God will provide...
