So true, and well said, as always your saraku speaks volumes and reaches so many hearts and souls, because of the wisdom and truth you portray and depict in such simplicity, creating profoundness! I loved the depth of this and what it reminds us too, to embrace simplicity, in life and more. Pleasure always reading your thoughts, they are soul stirring! Sending you light always
