LOVE. . .

A special world for you and me

A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

- Sheelagh Lennon -

There are times only when a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappointments
And calm all our fears.

There are times when only a Mother's Love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we've dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.

There are times when only a Mother's faith
Can help on life's way
And inspire in us the confidence
We need from day to day.

For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith
And a Mother's steadfast love
Were fashioned by the Angels
And sent from God above...

How did you find the energy, Mom
To do all the things you did,
To be teacher, nurse and counselor
To me, when I was a kid.

How did you do it all, Mom,
Be a chauffeur, cook and friend,
Yet find time to be a playmate,
I just can’t comprehend.

I see now it was love, Mom
That made you come whenever I'd call,
Your inexhaustible love, Mom
And I thank you for it all.

Journey of Life

A journey is going to a place or travel from place to place. A destination is a place for which you are bound or going to. Life is somewhere in between with the emphasis being on the former. When you come into life as a baby you are not really going anywhere for you rely on your parents but for some in the animal world the journey starts fairly soon after they are born and that journey has one destination, food and surviving. Depending on which part of the planet you arrive in, your journey will be different. The nomadic peoples of the world such as the Bushmen and women of the Kalahari Desert, or the aborigines of Australia, have a life of constant literal journeying to destinations they know will replenish them. In Namibia the Himba are constantly moving their cattle to new grazing areas.

We are born unto this universe with a path. That path is where we learn, grow, and mature. We are not seeking a destination, only continued growth on that path. Perfection would be the destination, and although we know that we are unable to be perfect, that does not mean that we should not try to attain that perfection in our daily lives.

Life is a series of episodes. Each one teaches us fantastic things. Whether miserable, or wonderful, each experience helps us grow and mold ourselves along our journey. We learn through every step of the way. Life is not about reaching a destination. One may reach MANY destinations in life, possibly even thousands, but those are all part of the all.

We must embrace each moment, and live them fully. We must take full awareness that there is no rush to get to any specific destination, and life should be approached as an incremental journey that helps us grow.

INTO D WORLD OF BLOGS....

Blog, the word itself scares me, i don't know why...... its a gives me feeling of thoughts and feelings being taken away, is that true??? Is everybody capable of sharing their minds and hearts??? What does blogging actually mean, is it your frustration and anger coming out, is it your hidden line of thoughts being poured out, is it a medium of getting public appreciation for your personal views or is it just a fact that we as human beings need "someone" in our life to share our feelings with??? When we blog on anything about any subject we really don't know who is going to read it and with what state of mind,  what i may write here today may sound and mean something totally different to somebody reading it, so is my message being outsourced in the same way as i had written it???Everybody has a different perspective about things and are free to share them but do we actually understand the core meaning of what somebody else is trying to say,people write about food, fashion, feelings,films,emotions,travelling, photography, technology,life,...anything and everything, is the right message conveyed??If yes, 'what is the right message'???
 I feel blogging is a way of creating your our niche with people sharing same ideologies,so that i know may be what I am and where I belong, finding people similar to you takes out the fear of loneliness and "what am i???"feeling, the more I try to connect through blogs the more I know myself...i know many may differ,but to start blogging has helped me understand my inner self a little better, before writing or even randomly thinking of what to write on blog gave my brain a push and the thinking process started, i don't think i would other wise so damn care about anything in world or even care to go beyond my one liner thought. i have kind of started to categorize my likes and dislikes, started to think on issues from both the ends(still not reaching to a conclusion), looking at everything with a writing perspective and then deciding what to stand for, it gives my confused status a bit of direction..........it took me three weeks to actually decide on what to start with....... by the time I have written this, the word 'blog' doesn't scare me(i think) :D
