PEOPLE  ARE  DIFFERENT

 

People listen differently.
 
Words mean different things for different people.
 
Repeating it – doesn’t mean people still don’t get it.
 
People don’t know what they don’t get.
 
People get thinking after a disaster.
 
Right now, sometimes means, “Oh no. Not now!”
 
People don’t know why I put this here.

EPIPHANY

 
It’s a new year!
 
Looking back on last year,
hopefully there was at least
one rich and enabling epiphany.
 
The Pandemic of 2020
had its messages and learnings:
the power or the poison of the invisible.
 
Or “There are moments we won’t forget
and surprises in the wings or at the back door
and “Who said we are really in control?”
 
It’s a new year!
 
If we were offered three gifts,
what would we choose 
besides gold, frankincense and myrrh.
