I am not I.
I am this one
walking beside me whom I do not see,
whom at times I manage to visit,
and whom at other times I forget;
the one who remains silent while I talk,
the one who forgives, sweet, when I hate,
the one who takes a walk when I am indoors,
the one who will remain standing when I die.

You are so beautiful Bethie.
I’ve cried so many tears this morning, reading emails of the people I love. Reading Rumi and then this beautiful poem. Missing you all so much for a moment and then knowing I AM HOME….in the truest sense.
love you!
Sweet one, the Field was having a conversation with me today and I listened and through that medium it spoke and said to all of us:
“It’s amazing. The love inside. You take it with you.”
Love you, Bethie
Lovely. Thanks for sharing it.
