Guest guest Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Sparrow, Thank you for another lovely poem. Your present thoughts on 'fading away' are also close to me. I would be happy just to sit under a tree in the sun for 10days just meditating and enjoying the Kundalini flowing through my body. But all the time I am being pulled back by family saying " You really should be doing something with your life. Get out there and make a mark on the world, like you used to. " It is so hard following this path and keeping those around you happy. If I find a way to do it I'll let you all know.
