One thing that came up at the retreat was the way we make life complicated and this poem used that word in it. We make our life complicated with our view of the world. Let it Be is also my favourite Beatles song so it was a great way to begin the week with this wonderful poem about helping each other out and sometimes just pausing and taking a breath.
There are different kinds of problems
Easy
Simple
Hard
Complicated
It can come just around the corner
It can be from someone
or No one at all
It can be solved at an instance
on its own
or might need a couple of helping hands
And there are problems that seems impossible to deal with
Now.
“And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, LET IT BE
…There Will Be an Answer, LET IT BE…”
(I also love this Let It Be cover by Angie Vasquez.)
