Life as it is…
that means that people die.
Last week, one of my best friend’s father passed away.
The funeral is today.
Here’s a book-haiku that I posted in 2013.
I re-post it now because it fits today’s feelings.
Dagboeknotities Het leven zoals het is Tot het ons loslaat |
Notes in a Journal Life As It Is Until It Releases Us |
I submit this haiku to Haiku my Heart
Life is unpredictable,
celebrate it while you can.
Magical Mystical Teacher says
Yes, the day of release will come to each one of us… Hugs to you in this time of mourning…
Reading Pleasure says
Yes. I like this. Philosophical but lovely.
Lea says
Sending a hug and love to you and your friend, and her family. How grateful I am for your notes, your words, and this connection that spans far between the physical space that separates us…
judie says

Incredible how ‘life as it is’ can be such a powerful line in itself.
