Presence From Two and a Half Millennia Ago

He satfocussed on the questionsof lifedetermined not to budge untilhe had the answers.A dark, dense shadowseeped out of his bodystaining the earth.He became a  light source for millions to be guided byfor two and a half  millennia

Leonard...

agreeing with Nina... very descriptive read... the only suggestion I have would be to cut down the title to "The Light" just an idea my friend, but I thought it would add the flavor of figuring it out to the reader.... good to see you! Richard

The Light of Two and a Half Millennia

Hate to sound repetitive, but I always appreciate you sharing with us Leonard. A lot of thought and insight in your postings. Agree with Moon here on the title~ ______________________________________________________ Income-tax forms should be more realistic by allowing the taxpayer to list "Uncle Sam" as a dependent Anonymous

Thank you WCW

Yes - the fool on the hill (nice song) is none other than the Great Gautama Buddha. Thanks for reading Leonard
