Day To Day Cures

When your world is topsy-turvy
Opt out  -- if you must
But don't stop CHARITY
GIVE a few coins, slices of food,
To the beggars, real or fake 
And the universe heals THE HEART
By degrees. College degrees fail
All too often as does "religion,"
Just be human, a mensch, once
A day, at the very least, & "dance"
The blues away (reluctantly, secretly)

Anil Anil Anil. Hello. Always are you the humanitarian. Always do say the right things for us to follow. We as people forget our blessings and somehow forget to share something even when we feel low or down. Thank you ever so much for this reminder be it fake or real. You continue to be amazing. I hope all is well with you. I am loosing touch. Happy Holiday season. May this day find you safe. Love and Blessings always. And yes, Shalom Shalom Namaste Namaste. (smile)
