bidding farewell...

 to see the year out, a much loved haiku from a much loved friend (whom i stole the blog title from in case you didn't know) -

Trusting to Buddha
Good and bad,
I bid farewell
To the parting year

Issa had a hard life, filled with tragedy. yet his entrusting to Amida carried him through the stormy waters of the saha world to the Pure Land. happy 2010 folks :-)
