It Is Possible To Know

It’s possible to know from whence I came There is no need to even have a name I am a part of eternal creation Reunification is my destination Born of the same energy of all creation I seek form to experience the relation Between the parts that make up the whole Unveiling the purpose of my soul Life in any form any time or anywhere Has the opportunity to become aware To understand its relationship to the whole Revealing its purpose in life its unique role. Be thankful for life for having a part, Interact with the others from your heart.

I am thankful every day for life and appreciate what I DO HAVE vs. what I don't. Some of us see things the way they are and ask why? I see things that never were and ask why not? --George Bernard Shaw and sometimes Robert Kennedy...nice poem

Life is about sorting out the big three questions: where did I come from, why am I here, and where am I going? This sonnet poetically addresses all three and indicates that there are satisfying answers to these mysteries. I love how it concludes with a resolution of gratitude and human interaction.. Well done, and congrats to you for your POTD honor, my friend ~ John
