House of Wisdom

Grandparents are archetypes of wisdom and healing, the balance of masculine and feminine energies within us.

Like rivers and sky, they embody opposites: action and stillness, intellect and presence. Their wisdom flows through us, reminding us that true learning is both active and reflective.

Life is a cycle too, with flow and transformation as its resilient currents.

Remembering my grandparents with gratitude, in the quiet imprint of nature and spirit.

Vulnerability is not weakness.

Some wounds, whether from close relationships or brief encounters with strangers, are inflicted knowingly or unknowingly. Inspired by the quiet grace in Rabindranath Tagore´s works, this poem imagines a rose petal speaking to the hand that plucks it.
