An Inspired Poem: A Bridge of Understanding

bridge-understanding

Between hearts and minds, a chasm wide,

Misunderstandings and judgments reside,

But hope's not lost; there's a path to take,

A bridge to build, a bond to make.

A bridge of words, a bridge of deeds,

A bridge that meets our deepest needs,

Spanning the void of confusion and fear,

Drawing distant horizons near.

Brick by brick and hand in hand,

We can construct what love demands,

A passage safe, a way to cross,

A connection where no one's lost.

Listening first, then speaking true,

From the Dead Sea to a Sea of Opportunities

Dead-Sea

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes." – Marcel Proust

Have you ever wondered why the Dead Sea in Israel is called 'dead'? It is fed by multiple river systems, yet no water can flow out from it; it is a cul-de-sac in nature. With no egress, the salt content continually escalates to extreme levels, rendering the environment too harsh for life to thrive. However, if the Dead Sea had an outlet, the constant influx and drainage of water would c…
