Shapes in collision
constellation of feelings
depth of subconscious

2.  be humble , patient and content

3.  mind your own business

4.  don't judge or criticise

5    be fair and generous-
give everyone a chance

7.  accept the good and the bad

8.  pursue a simple life

9.  be grateful

10. have humour

If you can find your still-point

in the midst of life's chaos

you would be prepared for everything

and all equanimity will be yours

As with me, this is the truth-

I am not confident ALL THE TIME, in between I have doubts too-
they are of great help as doubts, properly recognised, enhance my confidence;  through them,  I have a wider vision and am not carried away by my unbridled confidence

You I don't judge

I was in your shoes before

had suffered much

was jobless, homeless, poor-



I worked, worked real hard

selling cakes I made at many a door

a rich young woman took me to her heart

now we live in Beverley Hills, the suite on the highest floor

I know so well my heart
has broken pieces--many indeed-
much did I struggle to find
but never did succeed

My heart dwells in beauty
in her ***** I find my perfect rest
I'll serve her in unfailing duty
I know I'll be abundantly blest-

let my brush be my ardent voice
let every colour in majesty  assume
our coming-together is all our joys
every painting should smell as perfume
