Floating Mind (Paperback or Softback)

The human mind constantly fluctuates between the present, the past, and the

future. In good times, it embarks on weaving happy dreams. In bad times, it

goes to the past and remembers happy times, while it jumps to the future and

thinks worrisome thoughts. Either way, it distracts us from reality, and as a

result, we lose control of our thoughts and feelings, ultimately affecting our

decision-making ability.

The following poems describe different moods of a floating mind. When it

is restless, its thoughts are dominated by anxiety and fear. In a calm state, it is

connected to the soul and generates thoughts of hope and courage.

Through these poems, the poet conveys that love is an innate quality of

humankind which, however, is not let overwhelm life by the mind. Since the

mind is fed with news of hunger, hatred, and conspiracies worldwide, it tends

to miss the bliss of love that is the cure for all evil.
