the big picture
an emperor
sitting upon
a throne
a poor man
down to his
last few morsels
a beautiful black
and red monarch
butterfly perched
atop a pile of cow
dung in a meadow
all things in order
all things in place
who are WE to argue
with the universe

I'll tell you, Kitty: we are noone to.
There is beauty in all things - and, afterall, who are we to know of the karma they've reaped through their own actions ( or, inaction ).
I Love the imagery of the monarch on the dung - that is such a stunning contrast. And, yet, it's the dung that fertilizes so well. Nothing is wasted by the Universe. Wish humans could mimic that.

As do i Ahvanti. Bradshaw in his book, "The Family '" talked about control madness. The more out of control we feel internally, the more we externally try to control, which doesn't work, which makes us feel more out of control and around and around we go. Ignoring the obvious reality of," it happens because it happens," and all of our wishing or wanting it differently makes it any so . Thank you for the words

“the more out of control we feel internally, the more we externally try to control”.
I see my need for change. It’s hard to let go sometimes and just let be.
