A beautiful, anonymous response to “Laundry”

October 21, 2013

So last week I wrote on “Laundry”
It was a quick, unedited, and rushed post

I wrote about what I learned on a Delhi rooftop about “Laundry”
And the one comment I got in response was from someone anonymous
But it was just glorious.

This was it

“Laundry and dirty dishes, too. Miserable chores that have secret messages–we are alive, and we are not naked or hungry.”

   Laundry and Dirty Dishes

                                                               Miserable chores

                                                          That have secret messages

                                                                    We are ALIVE

                                                                  We are not naked

                                                                   We are not hungry

    Oh how I miss that rooftop! Those smiling faces just radiate so much love and joy from the heartache they have survived. <3
