Happy to be Unknown in the Only Truth that Deserves to be Known - Mika and Rihanna...

Mikhail's endless 'Papa this...' and 'Papa that...' drives me crazy.
But happiness is... listening to a trans-pacific call
from your 8 year old son saying the exact same thing. 

1. Each second it gets better and better

Each second of my life,

Each moment that comes

Is more beautiful,

More honoured and more blessed

Than the last moment

Preceding it.

For you see, the division

Of time is illusory,

It is a necessary condition

Of existence when God created

And ordered the Sun to precede the Moon,

As day turns into night,

And seasons come and go.

For the truth is that

Time and space

Is one single giant canvas,

And the Lord whom I know and love

Is an Artist of Unimaginable Brilliance

Who would not leave a single colour and shade

In my life which was not beautiful and meaningful

With the true essence of Divine love and understanding!

Am I frightened to know this?

Of course, I am!

Am I happy to know this?

Happy beyond words!

Happy to know, happy to be known,

Happy to be unknown in the only Truth

That deserves to be known!

Goodbye and peace of heaven to thee, seekers!

Spotted!

It doesn't take much to make me pleased. Earlier today, Mikhail, my 8-year old son called from LA, California. It seems that the entire family of his mum, Gina and his stepdad Herman, saw Rihanna (yes, the umbrella singer... who else?). Mika was less than impressed by the sighting (after all, she is JUST a girl) but he sounded happy, and of that I am glad.

I cannot stay long, sunshine. Too many chores to run back here in Malaysia.

The prose was in fact recorded more than 3 years ago. I am contented to see that things haven't changed. And indeed, if things have changed, it has changed for the better. So as the poem ends, so does this posting... Goodbye and peace of heaven to thee, seekers!
