SORGENFRI

This poetry is a culmination of the years of living in Denmark in a place called Sorgenfri, which means in Danish “Free of Sorrow”. The G in Sorgenfri is silent and is not pronounced. This poetry is about my observations, my thoughts and emotions over a long period of time.

Sorgenfri has had a great impact on my life because of its serenity quite like the book “Far from the maddening crowd” I wrote of situations that occasionally punctured that serenity.

There is much that goes on in life. But I have never known a place like Sorgenfri. In the midst of physical and emotional turmoil.

I experienced a peace that “goes beyond human understanding.”

Sorgenfri for me was not only a place, but Sorgenfri is an attitude of the
heart.

A place of divine connectedness. I discovered that you can live anywhere in the world when God is at the centre of your life.
