what language is this? forgive my ignorance I just found the alphabet so elegant, I studied Greek a little in my youth and this remined of it (or maybe I\'m just imagining things)

Those short stories are chapters in our lives and we all have many chapters yet to read.

I can relate to each line in this superb conception of the life we all share - we are all these wondrous things and more. I am adding this gem to my favourites dear Trenz.

My Memoir in honor of Taliesin
jarcher54 said:
As Goldfinch suggests, you\'ll be remembered as much as the greatest lords and ladies. Memory is a collective, and you\'ve made things of beauty here and probably in your life at large that will leave ripples for ages. Maybe you\'ll be remembered faintly and mythically, like Taliesin himself. I love poems that are thumbnail biographies, and this one is as wistful and intense as they come. Your piece reminds me of Omar Khayyam\'s quattrain:
Think, in this batter’d Caravanserai
Whose Doorways are alternate Night and Day,
How Sultan after Sultan with his Pomp
Abode his Hour or two and went his way.

amazing to think of the amount of land on earth that still remains unclaimed and barren, while we elbow and nudge our way through life in our clusters of conformity, ensuing the unending continuation of conflict - derived purely from the fact that we cant give each other a modicum of space: even here in this untameable magnitude we so tellingly titled the world wide \'web\'

There is a challenge to \"Thou must not kill\" the actual translation is \"Thou shalt not murder\" which gives a completely different view on the commandment.

dusk arising said:
Christianity is full of dual standards. Once realised and one\'s questions start to nag one\'s brain, then christianity can be seen for what it was designed for by some clever men back then when the world was flat...... as a power base... based upon fear..... to control people.
It\'s a rather well designed religion because many people are still sucked in as children and afraid to address the dual standards and glaring contradictions such as you identify, but there are many others.
Along the way christianity has tried to drag its heels into reality, for example - 300 years after Galilieo proved the earth was round the christian church lifted the title of \'Heretic\' from his name for disagreeing with their \'flat world\' stories. Of course there are many more contradictions and shameful facts about christianity such as it\'s support of slavery for around 300 years and its providing hiding places for peadophiles.
Accepting that christianity is a farce does NOT mean one is rejecting God. It means you are rejecting the falseness of the way christianity claims to be God\'s way.
A clear message in your piece today which may lead some to begin asking themselves questions about falseness in christian teaching, belief and practice. Into my favourites.

L. B. Mek said:
outside of the last two lines, there is a balance of multiply angled interpretations from the unblinkered introspection that have produced this brave portrait of the reflection - you have outlined of yourself, I can imagine looking back at these words at a later date will be a fulfilling landmark, in that commonly yearned journey for self-realisation,
Happy Birthday and best wishes for the year ahead

Measuring life in years or months is only a number, but as we go forward those numbers do not matter is we can enjoy every moment of our lives, each moment is so special.
