" Man is one name
belonging to every nation upon
earth.
In them is
one soul
through many tongues.
Every country
has its own language
yet the subject of which
the untutored soul
speaks
are the same everywhere."

What a soul knows
is often unknown to the man who has soul.
We are infinitely more than what we think.

ONE OF HIS POETIC VERSES:
"NATURE AND NATURE'S LAW
lay hid in the night.
GOD
said, " Let Newton be."
and there was light."
=======
I do not know what I may appear to the world,
but to myself I seem to have been only like
a boy playing on the seashore
and diverting myself in now and then finding
a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary,
WHILST THE GREAT OCEAN OF TRUTH
LAY ALL UNDISCOVERED BEFORE ME.
Gravity
explains all things,
but it cannot explain who set the planets in motion.
GOD
governs all things
and knows all that is or can be done.

DEDICATED
TO THE MANY STRANGERS IN
A PARADOX OF HUMAN SOCIETIES
The Magnificent Splendour of A Paradox
A paradox...
Unheard or heard!? Unsaid or said!?
Unaccepted or accepted!? Unhidden or hidden!?
From the East to the West, from North to South.
Many soul searching minds??
Many self reflecting spirits??
Many contradicting views!!
Yet, in different places, in different times, and in different worlds,
it speaks one language known to all!
The language of love, said and unsaid.
A paradox, a truth that is masked.
A truth...A love for change!
Search, search where it is, it is deep, it hurts.
A truth that hurts, but a truth that builds.
It makes a beautiful wholeness of life.

The alternative
for those who have been
"Down on their luck"
A Wishbone
A wishbone is a funny thing,
'Good luck' it is suppose to bring.
This one is specially for you,
because you need some luck - how true!
But is it really 'luck' you need?
I think not exactly - agreed?
Instead, keep on the track you've begun
and do not give up until you've won.
With the changes you've already made,
the answer you've found will never fade.
GOD
is always there,
standing by your side,
your friend, helper and above all, your guide.
HE has never failed since time began,
since creation when HE made man.
HE even made this little wishbone,
so make a wish all your own.
Then know that
GOD
heard your plea.
You are one of a kind - very special, too.
Even more than special, because you are you!
