    I can't explain how grateful I am !
    Amidst the horrors, deaths and mental trauma that we are facing in these times of pandemic, this poem gave me a deep pleasure and a serene experience.
    I have also read Kahlil Gibran's Masterpiece " The Prophet".
    I just want to say THANK YOU ❤️

      Yet why, why must some of us feel too much sorrow for us not to see the light even when it's brightest? Why was there life when it would all go wrong, with only the few great moments we get? Why cannot we get what we wish, but what we fear?

    • @Suranjan_Malik
      @Suranjan_Malik 3 роки тому +3

      @@writingisfun9842 I think the fault lies within ourselves If we can not see the light even when we are in the light. And our lives sometimes give us hapiness as well as fears or sorrows. But, I think, we are too much affraid to count the pleasures and end up piling our experiences of sorrows. The feeling of fear is so greater that it makes us forget. But obviously there are people who are endowed with sorrows more than in general. Life is actually very mysterious and if any power we have , that is to find little happiness even when we are passing through sorrow.

      The problem is that people keep recommending The Prophet. When I read that book, I thought that Khalil Gibran was overrated.
      Now that I experienced his poetry... I realized this guy underrated.

    Beautiful poetry heals and awakens your heart to be ready for your real love to enter for lifetimes to come but first always enjoy your peace of loving yourself so you will know how when meeting your love how to love her with great passion body and soul til her last breath in your arms and this beautiful love must be both ways to feel this magic that only can be felt by purest of souls that will love you deep as you deserve to be loved as you are not for money title ect! But for the water your spirit a love that can only be touched and awakened by first sight and first kiss to heal your past hurts ! I believe we have 3 one for the young and new with lessons #2 for lessons of what we don’t want and to heal past mistakes #3 is best ever this is the gift for patiently waiting for true love in purest form to be the last arms to hold you through the most beautiful moments in time til your old wrinkled and grey and the most beautiful changes that your eyes will see with love and most precious hearts feel as you grow old and more alive together as ONE starts with a look a spark chemistry 2 hearts 2 minds = 1 soul 4 lifetimes to be a magic flame that is infinity so
