“Rionnach Maoim”

in language •  7 years ago 

‘The shadows that clouds cast on moorland on a windy day.’

"Rionnach Maoim"
Gaelic phrase

How musical,
What a delightful word image, and...
How like life.
Our “Now” is but a passing thing,
Whether it be
Shadow or Full sun,
Snow or Rain.
Days of labor or days of fun;
Days of sorrow and pain.
All these things are but a
‘Vapor, seen in a mirror; Darkly’.
~
Let not your heart be troubled overmuch.
Times of JOY seem to be fleeting,
Dour times
Seem to last forever.
It is really all the same,
Just your perception
That makes all the
Difference.
~

I specially open your wall here on steemit to enjoy your post😊 you are doing great👍 really wish a best luck for you👍👍💖

I gave this comment a larger upvote, because it was a comment, and not a two word phrase like so many folks give. 😠
If I could just 'like' such posts without giving up any $money, I would.

In tsu (a now defunct social platform) someone put out the idea early on, that if you "Liked and commented" on 1000 posts per day, it would help you make more $money.
So you had dozens of people, who all day all they did was go from post to post,
Commenting:
lc, lk, nc (stuff like that) for like or nice.
It was INFURIATING, to get a notice that someone had commented, stop what you're
Doing to come see, only to find "Like, Nice" etc...maddening.
So thank you for this comment @nageen 💘

Very well said...thank you..will wait for yours posts👍 best luck
