Three Legged Table

Be like the tree, change your leaves and keep your roots... Change your ideas and keep your principles!” Tibetan proverb So sturdy and steady, the teapoy stands I ask, how do you live with no demands? I am grounded like a tree with strong roots, three legs are the Trinity my life persuits. first leg is 'Work', to be done to it's best with honest labour, hours toiled in quest. second leg is 'Love' for all dear relations with faith and hope, less of expectations. third leg is 'Self-Care', body, mind, soul, no worries for problems beyond control. On my round table top, all flux and flow... candle dripping wax, swathing warm glow. enduring all, stands the three legged table. poised to the ground , balanced and stable.
