I set out to post a cheery spring picture so as to counter the dreary, unending gray winter weather that I am beyond fed up with.
Instead of easing through my familiar steps on WordPress, I was forced to change to this new application.
Maybe not so inappropriate since the hyacinths have been “forced” into bloom indoors.
Alone but not lonely
Lonely even though not alone
Sleeping single in a double bed
No one to talk to
No one who cares
No one trusted enough to share with
No one who will (or can) listen
Free to make one’s one decisions
Empowered to act without waiting for approval or agreement
Challenged to be creative
Look Ma, no hands
Wheeeeee
Crash
I want to hold your hand
I want you to hold me, please
Babies with adequate hygiene and food but not held do suffer and die from the lack of touch
A variant of marasmus
Touch deprived adults may fall into depression, poor health
A may die prematurely
Alone can be content
Lonely cannot
What makes the difference?
Attitude
Faith
Upbringing
Insight
Learning
Choice
All challenges to the Self
That enhance growth
But mostly, I think, that last one
Choice
Think about it.
Where observation and imagination meet nature in poetry.
A Terrestrial Romance
Original work with a spiritual connection.
A peek into Megha's mind
Rebelling against a culture that values assimilation over individuality.
Discovering Beauty in the small details of our lives
novels. poetry. screenplays. filmmaking. endless musings...

Wide-Ranging Commentary
Delving into the cross roads of rationality and intuition
Reflections on Canadian Culture From Below the Border
