Path


the path is the same
has been for a long time
but many who travel on it
are lost
no one knows where
no one can care

like zillions of twinkling stars
suddenly disappearing
on purpose
or playing hide and seek
or devoured 
by black or white holes
into permanent banishment

who knows
who cares
how to care
how to know

oops
where am I

Dear Uncle,
The path to enlightenment is one path that some human beings chose to tread on.What more can i say except that even today most have forgotten it.
Maybe the path to self-belief and faith in oneself is noble but then it is easy to get persuaded by what others have to say.
Maybe the path to godliness is accepting the fact that the only truth is ignorance about which path is relevant for us.That's the path to humility if i am not wrong.

I care to say that you are an enlightened person and i admire you as you have always been so frank and persistent in your belief about the path that you have chosen.

Regards,
Amit,Bangalore.

Dear Amit:

You wrote well.

A little more clarity would have helped the scope of my response. Keep thinking and writing. You will find it stimulating.

Love,
Uncle

Bhai,

You are on a road less (almost never) traveled by any.

Last two lines of "The Road not Taken" By Robert Frost.


"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."
