She became so important to them that they wondered how they had ever managed without her in the past. And the longer she stayed with them the more indispensable she became, so indispensable in fact that their one fear was that she might some day move on.

Breathing

the most essential
is inside you
and you take it
days and nights
air

invisible and yet so
necessary
in fact
indispensable


tell you what
they tell you perhaps
what is necessary and what is indispensable
is invisible
and tell you what
it is free

Woman is not gregarious.

There was a couple, who lived for many years,
Inseparable and indispensable.
No sooner was she dead than he married another.
Inseparable and indispensable, he found her.

A widow can be alone.
A widower feels lonely.

Jingshen is the Mandarin word for spirit and vivacity. It is an important word for those who would lead, because above all things, spirit and vivacity set effective organizations apart from those that will decline and die.

Stunned By The Show Of It

They wanted him to take action.
They wanted him to express an accountability.
And in the process,
Voices of opposition are raised...
Against his policies.

So unaccustomed to effective leadership...
Or witnessing how it is done.
People are stunned by the show of it.
Believing prolonged irrational debates,
Is the only way conflicts are won!

With a voting on who amongst those arguing,
Had come to impress and had been better dressed!

Some Camels Have Two Humps and Others One

Why do some camels have two humps,
And others one?

'That's a good question!
Hmmm...
To get to the other side perhaps? '

The other side of what?

'The other side of where they've been.
To get from point A to B.'

That makes no sense!

'And a camel with one hump,
Makes this journey more cost effective? '

Well,
That depends.

'On what? '

The number of mirages supporting an Oasis,
One uncovers.

'You have a degree from Harvard.
Don't you? '

Yes!
How did you know that?

'Your reasoning...
Though absolutely pointless,
Has much flair.
It fascinates.'

That's quite nice of you to say.
I think you are wise as well.

'Trust me...
Wisdom has nothing to do with it! '

Doesn't that hump business depend,
On whether the camel is Asian or African?

'You've got the degree.
Not me! '

Obtaining a knowledge that is common.
Or pertaining to one's comprehension and sensibility...
Has very little to do with academic learning.

'No...way!
You're kidding? '

With No Escapes From It To Exit

There is no other way to address truth,
But to be prepared to be stripped naked...
Bare,
With the exposing of every blemish.
Since truth is not seeking to be impressed.
Truth is on a mission to uncover honesty.
And many are still unbelieving,
The depth of which truth sees without explanation...
To deceive what is already revealed.
When truth is in one's presence and is fully awakened,
With no escapes from it to exit...
Foolish is the time taken to charade in masquerade,
To evade it with a wasting away of one's time.

With no escapes from it to exit,
Truth...
Is very effective!

With no escaping undetected,
Truth...
Is very effective.
Once fed truth it manifests.
And truth will not be neglected...
To reject!

With no escapes from it to exit,
Truth...
Is very effective!

With no escaping undetected,
Truth...
Is very effective.
Once fed truth it manifests.
And truth will not be neglected...
To reject!

With no escapes from it to exit,
Truth...
Is very effective!
With no escapes from it to exit,
Truth...
Is very effective!
And truth will not be neglected...
To reject!

Qualified to Make Productive Contributions

Do you have a degree?

'A degree in what? '

You know?
Something that validates your intelligence!

'Oh...
Something that documents my discipline,
And education?
Something that verifies my verity,
To conform to the wholesomeness of humanity.
And I am now qualified to make productive contributions?
My life lived,
Has already provided the requirements.'

Uh...yeah...I guess.
Whatever that was you said.

'And...
I imagine you have at least 'one' degree? '

Of course!
I got me two.
And I'm gon' get me a job that pays.

'Hopefully not to teach English!
And...
Suppose I did not have that 'degree'.
Would that make my efforts less credible?
Would that make a fame or notoriety less worthy?

IF...
I should pursue that route.
I know this is difficult for you to believe...
But a degree doesn't measure my success felt.
And I feel pretty damn successful! '

So...
You 'do' have a degree?

'You've missed my point entirely.
And you...
Have been depicted as a scholar?
God...
Thank you for opening my mind,
And doors! '

OH!
So you've studied to be a minister?
