Is it to walk around like a stork ?

Or is it to be free of greed and fear ?

Or both ?

 

If you are speedy,

there is either fear

or you are greedy.

dignity IS ego....and it's an ennobling affair.....actually a

crackerjack and jimdandy jimhickey.......so long as it doesn't evolve

into superbia.....than it's a mortal mistake personified as a deadly

sin....and that's not too good for the ego or the ennobled denizen of

the world............and it takes dignity to ask about

dignity.......answering a question about dignity takes either guts or

nuts like me.

for peace?

 

and was I not welcomed into your heart sanctuary?

 

have I not given you my love in return?

 

 

Namaste, Beloved,

here we have met, here the waterwheel turns,

and we drink from a deep well.

 

YIL,

Anna
