Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Aum Amriteswaryai Namaha Amma's Darling Children, This is a message which I received from a friend who is not in this list. It thought it is a good one to share!!!!! Read Alone.....Especially the Poem This is the poem: Around the corner I have a friend, In this great city that has no end, Yet the days go by and weeks rush on, And before I know it, a year is gone. And I never see my old friends face, For life is a swift and terrible race, He knows I like him just as well, As in the days when I rang his bell. And he rang mine but we were younger then, And now we are busy, tired men. Tired of playing a foolish game, Tired of trying to make a name. "Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim Just to show that I'm thinking of him." But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, And distance between us grows and grows. Around the corner, yet miles away, "Here's a telegram sir,Jim died today." And that's what we get and deserve in the end. Around the corner, a vanished friend. Remember to always say what you mean. If you love someone, tell th em. Don't be afraid to express yourself. Reach out and tell someone what they mean to you. Because when you decide that it is the right time it might be too late. Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have helped make you the person that you are today. Aum Namah Shivaya.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Namah Shivayah, Very timely. I just received news yesterday before heading off to see Amma that a friend of mine passed away. As in the poem, it's someone I so loved, and never really made the time for. It's been a harsh lesson for me, but I won't make the mistake again. Thank you for posting it!
