Sunday
morning, cloudy, humid, sticky,
A storm impending.
Out to walk and finding many people
Walking slowly. Out of respect.
Two important men of the church,
Popes have passed.
I watched as their funeral passed,
Heading to Holy Trinity Church by Arat Kilo.
I will picture the church for you in the week,
Many famous or important people are remembered there.
Today I am happy to be here
In many ways.
I am out in the cafe with people
Writing to you.
Instead of a day travelling, which with the weather
The way it is may have been a problem,
I can decide for myself what to do.
Those are good days aren't they?
When you choose what you will do,
Where you will go, what you will eat,
Et cetera . . .
Yesterday was odd because it seemed
That other people had taken over
My time and decisions. Today
I reclaim me.
It is important that when you have
Many things to do you can feel that
You are deciding how to do them at least.
Being told and decided for are not
What we do best.
When people who want to make other people
Do stuff want to write books
About how clever they are, they call this process
"Buy in". Capitalism eh?
I am not sure I my free will should be for sale.
I hope that you will learn to live
Consciously and without the dependence
That our last few generations have developed.
Deep and meaningful and caffeinated and
Many words there for your mom to explain!
Tee hee :-)
