Quote From My Life Statement

Not all days will bring me sunshine,
so I will rejoice also for the rain;
Not every endeavor will be a success,
but I will savor the victories I achieve;
Not all dreams I dream will be mine,
but in time new dreams will fill my heart,
and as from a star
those hopes will propel me forward
doing everything the best way I know I can…

What You’ve Always Wanted To Do!

what you've always wanted to doWhat Do You Really Want To Do?

There is something that you really wanted to do
Something that whispers gently from within you
Something urging you to move, to try, to cry, to rise again and to keep on trying
This may not be that thing you’ve made yourself to believe for a long time
or that thing the people around you have wanted you to believe
This is something authentic
This is something from who you really are
Will you allow this day to pass without ever finding it?
Will you allow this life to pass without ever claiming it?
This is your greatest challenge
But this is also your greatest joy!
This is your God-given task
This is your book
This is your truth
This is your song
This is you and this is what you’ve always wanted to do!

What is the Meaning of Life?

What is the meaning of life?

What is the meaning of life? The meaning of life is simple – it is love. There is no other. If there are other things we seek or need or strive for, it is only because of love. How we can understand it and grasp it with our finite minds. How we can be worthy of it, or how we can realize that we have been loved in times when we are most undeserving of it.

Wisdom, truth, power. They do not possess meaning in themselves. They are but avenues with which to be more acquainted with love, to be more immersed in love so we can discover who we really are and so that we may not lose what we have struggled so hard to find.

God is love. Family is love. Work is love. Passion, excellence, immortality, freedom, all these are but attributes of love.

The meaning of life is in this simple word. And we just couldn’t believe it. So we often take the detour instead of pursuing the straight path.

Whatever road you are in right now, do not be fooled. There is only one desire and one destiny. And you must find it if you truly desire to find what is the meaning of life.

Salvation (poem)

992349_tree.jpg

God was there
from the very beginning
but I knew Him not
and I turned away

I looked at the world
and beheld its splendor
til that same splendor
snatched me
and I was thrown
amidst its cold brightness
and I yearned for the warmth of home

In despair I wept
and I cried out to my God:
Rescue me for I desire not these things
and I will have none of this beauty
if only to be back in your arms

And my God heard me
and ran to me
and snatched me away from the world
and took me even
within His heart

Therein only
did I find joy
and peace
and LOVE
atlast!

Reasons for writing a blog

To every purpose, there are good reasons and there are true reasons. In writing a blog, for instance. People seem to have a gazillion of reasons why they are doing it, some monetary, others altruistic. As for me, the good reason is that I wanted to help other people, heal them and inspire them to live better lives. On the other hand, maybe the true reason is this: I write it because I wanted to be heard, I wanted to know – that I am not invisible.
