A VOICE FROM THE SCHWARZWALD: Satis Shroff

  1. Where, do you hail from?

I hail from a geographically landlocked Himalayan country surrounded by blue Shiwaliks and Mahabharat mountains, where the people actually live.

You Are A Divine Being

You are not who you think you are. You are not that face you see in the mirror every morning. You are not someone’s child, or someone’s parent, or partner or friend. You are not the physical body you admire or criticize when you take a shower, or when you get dressed.

Neither are you the profile description on your social networking page, or your high school diploma, your driver’s license, or your title at work. You are not defined by your career, or the things you own, or the family…

Walking Away

 

Walking Away

There are no rewards for walking away,

And only through staying brings a brighter day.

Patience, endurance, preservation and resolution,

Is the only sure way and the only solution.

 

There are no rewards for walking away,

Why does it appear to be easier than stay?

We give our love, our secrets, our heart,

Only to leave and be so far apart.

 

 

There are no rewards for walking…
