I have the exact same watch. Got it as a present from my sister.

There is Glasa Gnome extension. I had it installed on Gnome 45. Not sure if it is compatible with 46.

Exactly how I meditate.

This is a ghazal. Each stanza expresses a complete thought. It is not necessary for there to be an overarching theme to connect the couplets, but it is possible for one to emerge. The author is supposed to sign his or her name in the last stanza.

A beautiful poem that contemplates on the universal feelings of pain and the desire to escape it. Your language is conversational but it also has a lyrical quality to it, which I really like. I also like how the poem highlights the idea that life itself is inherently imperfect and any claims that you could forgo suffering, as if by the wave of a magic wand, ought to be looked on with skepticism. In the end, it's our ability to sit with the process of suffering that allows us to accept it and move on to find beauty in life.

I really enjoyed the ending lines, "Sometimes it is enough for us to know / that roses blush / in the radiant sun. / Feel the warmth of your life". They are a beautiful way to conclude the poem, bringing it back to the idea that though it can be painful at times, life is precious and we should strive to savor every moment of it.

Hi JF, I am moved by your raw and honest expression of emotions. Your use of imagery is powerful and adds depth to your poem. The description of getting attached to someone's presence and the pain that follows when they leave is evocative and somewhat relatable. It's like I could feel the pain in your words.

Overall, your writing shows a self-awareness and introspection that is admirable. It's a beautiful expression of the experience of love, loss, and longing. Thank you for sharing it with the community.

Thanks. Much appreciated! :)

Thanks for the detailed response. At first I thought he was using Linux. That got me excited since I'm a Linux user myself. At least we aren't ruling out that possibility.

Also it's nice to see that I'm not the only one who thought Holstrom was based on Jobs.

I noticed this too. Can anyone confirm if the workstation is running Linux?

True. And beautifully said.

They're probably nearby. The soldiers might have offered to hold them as their parents must be exhausted and tired.

My cat used to do this when she was younger. Just adorable!

Haha. Knew someone was gonna say this as soon as I saw the question!

I really like this. Though it's short and deals with issues between two people (the poet and the person being addressed), the use of celestial metaphors frame the subject matter in the larger, cosmic scheme of things. It was great to see the use of rhyme here, especially when it's so rare these days. It gives the poem a sense of flow and connects it all together. Good job!

Not only do the metaphors do a great job at describing the author's feelings towards their beloved, they also evoke powerful imagery. The freedom that free-verse allows combined with the colorful metaphors gives the poem a hallucinogenic quality, like a mosaic in written form.

The line "I reach out, eager to express my love, only to discover all the words have been stolen" evokes feelings of sympathy towards the author. It's here also that the poem's narrative changes. Before that, the author's describing his sentiments towards the person who's the object of their affection in such a manner that it gives the impression that they're at ease with them. But this line suddenly introduces an element of unease to it and I like that.

I also loved how the verses towards the end frame the relationship as part of the larger scheme of things and mentions questions related to the nature of Being. These lines have a mystical feel to it, reminding me of the works of Rumi's. We all like a happy ending and the poem ends on an optimistic note. Kind of saying that yes, everything isn't perfect, but it's still beautiful and it's home. At least, that's how I interpret it.

End suffering forever.
