Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Brain Loofahs

 


It is good to rub and polish our brain against that of others.  
Michel de Montaigne

Some people are going to rub you the wrong way

They get your back up



Your feather’s ruffled

And who wants to walk around like that?

Better idea?
Consider it an invitation to a spa


Since it is going to happen anyway- 
you may as well put it to good use

a treatment for the psyche



Use the “rub” to get rid of a callous on your heart

Or a dry patch in your soul


Just think of it as life’s little loofas

 a spa time for the soul
and suddenly....there is peace


Prayer of Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.
and that's poetiquejustis
