Well said Rama. Many of us don't feed the soul. It is important to feed body, soul and spirit to be healthy. Great job. God Bless, JB

Thanks for your appreciation of my thoughts. It came to mind yesterday. Penned it, maybe it might make others think. Take care, Rama

Our body is our interface with the physical and the spiritual. Our weakness makes us recognize our need for God. I like that your poem causes me to contemplate the connection of body mind and spirit. In my faith Trinity has great significance.

Better wake up and act as you should. You're not a puppet.
