Peace

Tell my little kids

Mama wishes them the best in life

Tell all my friends who believed in me

That I’m sorry

Tell those who stabbed me in the back

That I forgive them

My clansmen have a saying

That when travelling

Hold no grudges

Peace, I leave with you

This is wonderfully. And the image reminds me of a scene in a Hindi movie – Bhahubali: when the queen was getting drowned but never gave up on the neonate- Mahindra Bhahubali.

  Thank you so much Rachael. It’s very kind of you. You have a heart of gold. By the grace of God, I am doing great. I just looked at the picture and felt that was the message of the hand sinking in the water.
  
  Fear not for me 😅
