Off Center

you have it in a nutshell! I do believe we get so much more out of life by helping others instead of placing or trying to place ourselves in the center and trying to make the world revolve around us. Much said and a valuable lesson in these 5 little lines. Nice Nice Richard. Always Sincere, Tonya

Plant a seed for tomorrow, nourish it and watch it grow. Well said Richard. Respectfully, Rett: Hug a logger, you'll never go back to trees! For the sake of children, read this. http://www.neopoet.com/node/19905

Very nice wisdom in these few lines.

Richard, love the simplicity of the poem and the complexity of ideas! :) your last 2 posts have me contemplating centres, the still centre within oneself, (so important) and also the stepping out of placing ourselves at the centre of the universe, thinking of others, extending love to all, being centred but not central, ooo moonman so much I can read in here (yet again!) much love b x

Wow Richard, what a great and true message in this short piece. By restricting it to self only we make life very small, depriving ourselves from the real joys and happiness that this great blessing, life, can give us. "If we can remove ourselves from the center… our understanding of Life can begin!!!!" Just loved it. Sincerely, Wafi
