Thoughts On a Seeing-Eye God

Sayonara, Arrivederci, Shalom, Aloha, they all mean the same thing, Right?
or 
Not?
It depends....
And whether you're experiencing "Jamais vu"
Or "Deja vu"- you will of course, have
a different reaction.
Emotions run the gamut--
that seems to be the attraction,
but underneath the skin, the veins 
it's in your blood,
your DNA,
there's an imperceptible something,
 absolutely something there
-ReaL-
you can't replicate it in a laboratory,
But it informs You: Who you really 
Are.

Anil Deo November 7, 2021 at 12:34 PM both therapy and philosophy, Linda. thanx indeed. i can say much about "shalom," and why its best to say it twice. but my prose is never as poetic as your's here. Shalom, shalom of God and Goodness, Healing and Happiness (as Jesus - THE idea of God on earth - lived them out)
