Bittersweet....
That was lovely.
My favorite word is 'Surrender"....Peace no longer eludes me when I quit fighting and I succumb....to inevitability...and the notion that 'It is what it is"...it is the opposite of apathy..it is detachment...knowledge (gnosis) without emotion. I still care...but I can not control...only how I deal...My lifes' boundaries are clear. Now I look for only strength to get through these inevitabilities.
I have also determined that as I grow older, I become more simplistic....
...and my love for mankind deepens...we are all in this together....
Indeed, ER...Love.
