JewBu: a Jew who practices forms of Buddhist meditation & spirituality. This blog documents my quest to 1) heal from sexual, verbal, and emotional abuse, 2) come to terms with losing Mom and Grandma to Alzheimers, 3) find balance, explore the spiritual, stay present. Bascially, I've experienced some pretty crappy shit in my life and want to find a way to move past it and find happiness.

Had no idea you wrote poetry.
Wow.
And hugs.
Yeah, I've written for years, but nothing much recently other than this. There's a poem on here that I wrote last year about *Z*. This one is actually based on an experience I had in the Dan River in Israel. Maybe I should put that in the title? Hmmmm.....Hugs right back at you. Let's talk on the phone when you get back to Israel.
Thanks, Joe!
...and float. Remember, the river knows its destination...which is always to the ocean. Buddhism equates water, especially oceanic bodies of water, with compassionate wisdom. The river, then, will take you there, if you stay with the river.
That's very interesting Gail. Ironically, I think that the Dan River would have taken me into some Palestinian areas, but its a lovely metaphor that I'm going to try to think about today in regards to Jerry.
