Thinking

There is a person who knows the woman in the picture very very well. He wrote this poem about the way he sees her, and she is touched beyond words, because it isnt everyday that special people as such can see through her skin. So she decided to post it here, so others can see her through his words. To the m an who wrote this - what a deep, beautiful person you are..... "A young woman sat by the window Overlooking the pavements of life/ Thinking what her path would be/ Wondering, about all that is out there/ Passing by her window/ Asking if her fate is sealed/ She looks one hundred years old/ Dumbfounded by what her eyes have seen/ Through the opening of her window/ In silence she sat, thinking about what lifes chains had led her to/ Her voice fading, her movement paralyzed/ Wondering how to let her spirit roam the blue skies/ Does she want herself to go free? Would her art be the same, be as powerful? Would she find that sensitive expression that touches us? That tells us that she feels our pain/ She is freeing us through her chains! Do we want her to be free?"

YES WE WANT HER TO BE FREE, IN FREEDOM SHE WILL FLY AND GIVE EVEN MORE TO THE WORLD...THE SOUL MUST FLY OR DIE...AND THERE SHALL BE NO DEATH IN HOPE AND LIFE IF SHE IS FREE SHE WILL BE FULFILLLED, HER EYES MUST LOOK THROUGHTTHE PAIN AND BELEIVE IN FLIGHT AND THE TRUTH AND LOVE OF LIFE...THAT IS WHAT THEY TELL ME...THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE. EXCELLENT WORK AND EXPRESSION.

i am awestruck by your description ... it has got me into thinking ... the big question lingers ... Do we want her to be free?? i believe it depends on what she considers to be freedom ... GREAT WORK
