Ruminations  (part 2) "Oh heart, Let go of all your worries about the future. In this friendless world, come and join us." ~~~~~~~Rumi In unity there is strength. In community there is support. Alone, whether by choice or happenstance, We are destitute and doomed To suffer grief and pain. Hope thrives and uplifts the soul In the company of family and friends. Seek out those about you Of like will and mind. Compassion returns upon itself And multiplies its actions In accordance with the three-fold law. If you seek love you must first give it. This is the ultimate irony, That servitude can make one free. 12/28/2001 Written December 28th, 2001 © on Dec 28 2001 09:40 AM PST, Heinz Scheuenstuhl    0 • 12
