Fish In A Pond

Blogoratti January 25, 2010


Quote of the day:
Turn your gaze inward.
Correct yourself and your world will change.
-Kristin Zambucka



I fished in a pond.
I had been told no fishes existed.

I was hopeful.
I was patient.
I had time.

I waited for hours.
I waited for minutes.
Alas i finally made a catch.

As beautiful as the rainbows....
They said no fish existed here.
I could finally prove otherwise.
To keep it would be wise.

But then...
I set it free.

    As I read, it felt like at first there were doubts, and then there was hope. And hope gave way to reality...but then the reality was released after achieved.

    I like the poem. And the quote.

    Patience is a virtue. but y wait for sth for so long, only to set it free???

    Seriously WHY? I do not understand the rationale behind that. Shudnt u FRAME it in silver and gold after waiting that long???

    at first i didnt understand. but now I do, sometimes u work so hard at something or for something but at the end to love it is to let it go. no matter how difficult it may be.
