John reads his poem “What Have We Learned.” He discusses the new age of anxiety, his skepticism about advice poems, and our duty to find our own feet first, and fast, before we can help anyone else.
Putting ourselves on hold and helping a loved one .
People are not stepping stones to reach some fake Nirvana ...we should ...and I do ...concentrate on the small things and then expand .
The mountain ..the climb ...the changing seasons echo so well with me .
I have had the good fortune to climb with our dear friend Claire and we loved it .We decided that "What is said on the mountain , remains on the mountain"
