Re: Off the Subject) reply 2 Ken...

[Guest guest]

thank you Ken,

that was really beautiful, probably would move to tears if the dry

eye syndrome wasn't there. (smile)

I understand about doing it as a job. The way your poems/writings

are now is spiritual/soul connecting in a way, but maybe if they were

produced only to make money, you may lose some of the spiritual

connecting part of it.

it is definitely an obvious talent and the poems take our minds off

the suffering for a moment. I guess we are conditioned to feel

talents should bring monetary reward. However, you seem to get a

much more meaningful reward than that. (smile) so we will leave it at

that.

many blessings
