Most pain comes from what has past or fear of future thoughts. If we deal with each moment as they come and then detach, our pain is less and our joy is more. But like you said Life is a journey through which we all must go. Great poem.

'Who am I, what are my needs? Who is my friend and Who is the foe? What are my rewards and why are my reprimands? Who grows and who remains unchanged?

I FULLY AGREE! LET US BE SEEKERS OF TRUTH AND LIGHT! BUT BEFORE EVERY OTHER THING, LET US FIRST LEARN TO BE GOOD HUMAN BEINGS! That is what I told some ladies here who are engrossed in weekly 'Kirtans'! Either my message is not understood, or they donot understand it is for their good! For your poem 10 + -Raj
