A whisper

I have been distant..
Something is blocking my way to reach YOU.. and I feel that thing is my logic.
That keeps Trying to explain every single incident and analyze the whys, hows and what ifs according to my little knowledge.
Searching for answers that would feed my perceptions..knowing in my heart that not everything works the way I assume it does..Knowing that some of these answers will be revealed in its own time yet I still search and worry.
Difficult to face YOU.. Hard to stand there, look up and doubt YOU!
I am confused!
I don’t understand YOUR language…Or may be I fail to listen!
I have lost trust in everything and everyone around me, including myself.
When I thought I was close to finding peace… I realized I was far away….
I feel exhausted and desperate.
Time and Patience, are the two words that are always on my mind.
It seems forever and I feel restless!
Prayers cannot find it’s way out..Remaing in my heart which is soaked in doubt..
God, please hear my whispers, parts of my prayers which I’m able to tell.
YOU know my heart…
Give me the strength to hold on and faith to go on.

Amen

My tomorrow

Finally awake after almost 30 hrs of continuous sleeping!
Dream after the other, felt so real that I almost believed I was living it!
Every time I opened my eyes I saw the tomorrow closer than I ever thought.

I am waiting for tomorrow. I will keep waiting until its here. And it will be here sooner than ever!
Sometimes its so hard for me to keep up with all that’s happening in my life. Knowing deep in my heart that i am blessed..so much blessed.
A learning process that never stops, life…
I never stopped believing for a moment and I shall never stop. Tomorrow, the day after today will be here in few hours…and the tomorrow i’m waiting for will soon be here too.
Untill then, I will do my best to be true to myself.
I will hold on..and I will not give up my dreams which I live for!

My love for Peach

Next time you are at the grocery’s, look for “Bonne Maman”.. PEACH preserve. Trying out many different brands, this is the best up till now that I laid my hands on.
Enchant your taste buds with the soft texture of Peach that melts in your mouth, enriching all your senses.

Some of the best things in life come in glass jars, sealed with the LOVE FOR PEACH.

Tomorrow will soon be here my Peach,
When WE will be in eachother’s reach,
Living the joys, every moment of it and each.

When the truth is not spoken, the reality becomes a lie!

Nothing hurts more than to see two who were deeply in love become strangers. In a world full of adversities, I find this, one of the painful moments in anybody’s life.
When all there is left between lovers is silence, Love becomes speechless. Words fear to speak how the heart feels. Words fear to hear what the other has to say or fear to hear it’s silence.
The pain is multiplied, when the heart breaks down and the pain spreads all over the body and mind.
Eyes become the window, which you wish not to see the light from, lips become paralyzed and ears become tiered of the deadly silence.
.
When the truth is not spoken, the reality becomes a lie!
Wishful thoughts, hard to find it’s way to the present where confusion has become the one and only resident of the presence.

Why the bill?


And here I am standing still.
Holding on to life and my good will.
Living the fun and surviving the thrill.
Trying to find out the purpose I’m here to fulfill
I hear voices in my head, I hear the noise of their drill
I taste the laughter as well as the tear, I swill
Drunk of thinking, I fear becoming mentally ill.
I want to put this head to rest, where is that sleeping pill!?
Why am I here? For what or whom am I paying the bill??

Why do we end up confused?

” The answer to all questions is TIME.. and time is never there for us to give enough explanations. We are left with incomplete answers. The urge to have full explanations, makes either mind or heart do the reamianing job. Keeping in mind and knowing by heart that neither one of it can have the ultimate explanations. And that is why, we end up confused!”

My morning and ME

It’s one of these days, where you wake up asking yourself “Where am I?”, “What is the day today?”, “Is it morning or night?”.. And soon you realize it is morning, it’s Sunday and you are in your bed, then you start making sense of all the rest of the questions dwelling inside your head. If you don’t get up from the bed right away, your brain will take control and start pausing all kinds of questions. Jumping through time and space, making your heart beat faster trying to explain answers to these questions that reason never understood.

It’s Easter Sunday! I open my eyes, after being captured inside a snow ball. Being frozen almost all night through. Fighting nature which decided to revolt against human, to show the anger and the power it had in its folds.
It’s Easter Sunday! I open my eyes, after seeing and watching a gang of young street boys, abandoned from life, running around and causing chaos in the streets.
It’s Easter Sunday! I open my eyes, after meeting a dear friend, who seemed distressed by the workers who were renovating his house. He was old and sick. He kept asking me “what do you think???” . I thought the job was poorly done, but I couldn’t tell him so, as I saw in his eyes the pain he was suffering, and didn’t want to make it worse.
It’s Eater Sunday! I open my eyes, to the morning sun, that for some time has been hiding itself from me in the white skies of Dubai. Million thoughts restle to be the first to be taken care of.

I JUMP OUT OF BED!

“Good morning beautiful :) Happy Easter <3 May your day be prosperous and filled with love :) " That's the first words I get to hear from the best little brother I could ever wish to have.
"Thanks hokis! same to you… I thought you were calling to ask about something, is that all you wanted to say?!" I ask.
"Yeah.. got to go, have a wonderful day" I smile and hang up…. I can see a thousand thoughts standing in line to pop into my face… I JUST WOKE UP..It's Easter sunday!

I start to write, hoping to put some of these thougths away. But with each thought wirtten down, more than one rush in to stand the line.

It's 9:00am.

Mind is upset
Heart is confused
And Soul is determined to make the best out of this day.

Happy Easter <3

Once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime

“Only you” a movie that moved me when I was a teenager. It had been a while since I last watched it. Today by chance it was on tv.
I watched it with different eyes. My heart though felt the same… so much the same!

This is my favourite words in the above song, which played at the end of the movie.
“Some people live their lives in compromise, and hide their dreams away.”

“Good Friday”

Today, I do not mourn Christ’s death..instead I rejoice…..and give thanks..

Today, I pray for strength to all of you in your hard and difficult times. I pray for light to shine in your darkest hours.
I pray for endurance and perseverance.
I pray for forgiveness, to myself and you all.. for everything we have done, thinking it to be the right thing to do, but in fact it have never been.
I pray for patience and more patience, in understanding the meaning of life.
I pray for the gift of accepting what is given to us and what is not.

God, open our eyes to see your blessings in our lives, every time we are blinded with the burdens, fears and worries of the past, present and future.
Let Your angels protect us from ourselves, from others who wish us bad and from the dangerous moments in our lives.
Protect us God from our own negative thoughts and energies, let Your hands be the shield that will guard us from destroying our souls..
Surround us with beautiful hearts, who praise Your name, pure hearts who beat for goodness.

Help us see beyond this life, beyond the faces, beyond the matters.. help us see the soul and not the flesh.
Let our prayers be heard to one another..be blessed by You..be glorified in Your name.
Today I pray to You God, to reveal to us our purposes in this life, so we can speak Your language and fulfil Your will.
My God, help us understand Your language every time we are unintentionally or intentionally doubting Your will by asking ” Why?, When?, and How?”
Bless us with good health and genuine hearts to accomplish our mission of goodness.
God, use us, to be the help others may need. And give us all it takes to serve mankind.

Today, I do not mourn Christ’s death..instead I rejoice….and give thanks..

Amen

THE KEY

I see in your eyes the way you want me,
Wish you could understand me

My heart alone can tell with whom in love to be.
Nothings wrong with you, its the lock, having only, one key!

I do not feel humiliated nor ashamed!
Loving against the odds, may have left me broken but not shamed.

Hurting you was never the target to which I aimed.
Calling me names, you will never leave me stained.

Different in so many ways,
Time has proven so, along the days.

Me and you, two not one
A reality shining in the face of the sun.

Do not feel sad, rejoice instead!
There is more to love than two in a bed.

Flesh to flesh, is lust to dust.
Body, mind and soul together as one is must.

Free yourself my dear friend.
Let it be the begining not the end.

And if putting this friendship to end, is the cost to pay
Then let it be your say, I will not force you to stay.

Better late than never,

We met, and what a pleasure!

Felt like we’ve known one another forever.

Guess that’s what they call a real treasure!

Watching time pass by, I lay my thoughts to rest.
Writing it down, taking it off my chest,
Doubting if i will be able to ingest,
The meanings of those thoughts which protest,
Turbulent feelings and emotions repressed,
For so long now, that I have professed.
Pushing me to the edge, putting my abilities to test.
Accepting disappointment to become my guest.
The presence of which I dearly detest.

Hands of time – 27 February

A moment in time was all it took
Our eyes met with that very first look
I knew at once that you were he
The one man who will always be

Days and nights, I wished and dreamed
To be near you but impossible it seemed
Something in me said it was not
It was the only hope I got

A year passed and there were we
Dancing spirits waiting to be set free
When suddenly the rivers flood
Emotions spread like flowers bud

A soft kiss on the lips with a tender touch
So unearthly, felt nonesuch
Flying into a world of our own
Lived the dawn of tomorrow unknown

A dream, a reality or something in between
Day by day I saw the unseen
A treasure in each others arm
Timeless love with a magical charm

My heart Spoke the words “I love you”
You heard its beat…..you said “I do”
I saw in your eyes what you disguised
Read on your face what you despised

I believed in you, in what we shared
Fully aware I was prepared
To live the moments with you
A dream that may be true

My love for you only grew
As deep as the ocean blue
As high as the stars in the sky
It was given wings to freely fly

Difficult it was for me to bear
The others who had to share
Your lonely nights and days
While awake on my knees I used to praise

Keep him my Lord safe and sound
Protect him from all the evil around
Enlighten his spirit, touch his heart
Show him God, your work of art
I believe in you, I trust you will
Hear my words, and my prayers fulfill
Bless him with peace, fill him with love
Surround him with angels who praise above
In your name I place his heart and mine
To nourish under your power divine

Time was never on my side
The skipping beat cried
The fear of not beating again
It ached the unbeatable pain

Scattered dreams, all over the ground
Lying on the floor, broken and unsound
Lonely wishes crying to stay alive
Believing in the skipping beat hoping to survive

Unborn children, buried deep within my heart
Wishes of sharing a life with you, fallen apart
A colourful drawing of a picture instead
Of moments in time painted in blue and red

Your eyes are my safety shore
Where my heart rests its beats on before
Your arms is my castle where I belong
In which I fear I shall not stay for long

I am a bubble in your air
Floating here and there
Close to you today
But one day I will be swept away

You found me, I found you
We became what time allowed us to
Everytime we touch, everytime we kiss
I live you, i live the bliss

More than you think..I do
I know you feel the same way too
Same dreams, different realities
Visions filled with uncertainties

With and without you
Close and far from you
You know and I know
The hands of time will show

….you hear and see her..

Along the side of a deep wild river, you hear and see a girl weep and shiver.
Her hands are as cold as ice, holding on her virtue — in fact holding on her vice.
The naked trees soaked in rain, watch her tears and see her drain.
Winds of change tackle her hair, she can not move, indeed she can’t dare.
In time she feels frozen and trapped, in her fears she is wrapped.
Darkness covers the angry skies, blinding her wide open eyes.
The flowing river whispers in her ears, the story of her life for the past four years.
Each drop of tear living on her cheeks, dying on her lips which of love bespeaks.
Thundering thoughts roam her soul, a million question marks haunt her whole.
The skipping beat shakes her heart, spreads the hurt and tears her apart.
Along the side of the deep wild river, you still hear, see her weep and shiver…..

The tree of life


“Whether to listen or not, I have my eyes fixed on their lips. The lips which speak the words to liberate me, not from the other but from my own self.”

Through the years I’ve learned to trust only my inner voice.
Silence rules the corners of my being.
Answers.. and more of it pour into my hands..

Where are the millions of questions that for so long have been haunting me?
Unable to stand face to face with answers, questions hide in the dark somewhere…

If I could only know to which questions these answers belong to. I would be free from every thought that strangles my inner voice.
In time, I believe, I shall witness the marriage of those millions of questions and answers. In a unique ceremony, where there shall be no room for ambiguity and lies.

“..speak now or forever hold your peace,”
The truth will only be there and it shall speak of itself.

Here and there

Busy hours of an empty day,
Filled with thoughts, gone astray.
Chasing time, in a chaotic way,
Far from being close, flying further away.

Smiles heard loud, sealed the silent lips,
Warm feelings of love written by cold finger tips,
The unspoken truth of the untrue scripts,
Guiding the hearts and souls to total eclipse.

Dried tears of pain,
Pouring questions in vain,
Finding hard to explain,
How to free the mind from going insane.

Difficult to hold on, easy to let go.
Surrendering to the winds, rivers flow.
No strings attached, a lame puppet show.
Hung on the wall, a blank canvas tableau.

“…along the way..”

And somewhere along the way,
We lost our will to stay,
Together, hand in hand.
We couldn’t as one stand.

Whatever the reason may be,
We were unable to foresee,
The love which was born to life
Was never enough rife.

To this moment now,
I can not realize how?
Love wasn’t strong enough,
To survive these moments tough.

Believed in one dream,
Or so did it seem,
Saw it become real,
Or so did it appeal.

What is love if it is not shared?
What is it, if not declared?
I love you darling, I proudly say
Today and every coming day.

“Some dreams are there to become real, and some others exist to make you learn a lesson, so you are able to make other dreams real.”

Unable to reach where I dream to be.
I learnt a lot the past couple of years, about different kinds of challenges that I had to face to survive being who I am and who I desire to be in this world… in the world around me and in my own.
Here, today I write down these words, while I walk upon my dreams, that cost me time and emotional imbalance. The race between my beliefs and the existing circumstances are getting more and more challenging by time.
Being a creative person, I have a lot of dreams, which I blindly believe in. Knowing in my heart and soul that I shall make them real one day. But that one day seems to be so far, and on the way I’m loosing a lot of me. Which sometimes makes me stop and wonder, are those dreams worth all that I have to give to make it real? Or is it just a waste of time and energy?

“Some dreams are there to become real, and some others exist to make you learn a lesson, so you are able to make other dreams real.”

A lot of times, I get negative thoughts about my dreams and beliefs. I say to myself, Seta, give yourself a brake! Life is so simple and stupid. You are here to die. Forget about leaving a legacy… Just live a fun full life and let go of all kinds of thoughts and ideas that make your life more and more complicated.
Sometimes, I become really weak. Having the power to end my life seems to be the only power I have. The one and only thing I’m in control of.
Life is so damn beautiful to end it.. I know that. And achieving my dreams are damn hard to accomplish.
Despair fills my heart body and soul. But something in me cries out, Seta, no time for depression… Your dreams are waiting for you.

The sad part is when your dreams are shared. One or more, sharing the same dream can make it work really well or can break it all.
May be this kind of dreams exist to direct you to a certain path to be able to reach some other place, hence realize some other dream.
Life is too complicated.. time and space, circumstances and fact, beliefs and dreams…all in one, hardly sharing one vision, hardly having one dream.

I never liked change. All my life I have been running away from change. I welcome it. But once its in, I’m out!
Time has come to sit face to face with change. I fear it, as most of us do the same too.
It’s never easy to be half way to fulfilling a dream, and suddenly being introduced to “change”, which offers you a different direction than the one you have walked all the past time.To accept a different path, takes a lot of courage and risk. Courage is there, but risk is risky! The fear of being mislead by the new change and misdirected leaves you paralyzed. At least for some time. Until you are able to move on and just keep walking. Here, the whole belief system is put to questionable doubt!
Doubting the new road, the time, the dream, the journey and all kinds of obstacles and risks you have to face can kill the belief that keeps you walking forward.

Now after all this talk, I have no other choice but to keep walking, hoping that change will take me to where I desire to be. Taking into consideration that I should take control of my path, after being re-directed, so I am able to reach the one place where I dream to be one day, in this world.. in the world around me and in my own.

Words do not want to be spoken and letters refuse to be written. Here I sit infront of the laptop, typing with my fingers, forcing my heart to speak. Heart is hardly responding. The fear of not beating again is shaking it’s ground.
I hear tomorrow calling, to reveal the mysteries heart fears to live……..

In this world of mine, everything seems absurd. I look in the mirror, and see a face, I hardly recognize as mine. Even when I hear myself speak, the sound of my voice seems so loud in my thoughts.
Something is changing in me. I can feel it’s movement. Like a river, or may be more like a stream. Running in me from head to toe. I feel flooded!
A sense of non sense is surrounding my thoughts. Thought after the other, non stop flowing. Something being born, or something longing to die.
A beautiful world, so much to give. But how can I give what I do not have!?
Trust, loyalty, love, and so many other words, I cannot describe, cannot understand.
Those who care are rare.
Now, right now, my heart is aching. As if someone is pulling it out of my chest, beating it up. Am I beating up my own heart? I ask myself and sigh.
It’s all about time…. Time Time Time
Too much going on, all at the same time.
I feel lucky and blessed. Yet I feel sad and desperate.
Afraid to let happiness in, I shut it out!
I smile from the heart, the heart that is no longer the same.
Innocence has left my heart to worry.
I fear I fear I fear…. Time.
I pray with faith. The faith I doubt, I have.
Days and weeks… months and years………. time..time, be with me one.

The more we learn about ourselves, the less we know about life.


Life will give us what we want. Sometimes because we believe in it so much and deserve to enjoy it, other times to show us that what we want is just not for our best interest.
The thing is, you can never tell, until you live it. Only then you are able to understand why things happen the way they do.
Living all that, never means it was time wasted. In fact it is experience gained.
It hurts, but in a good way, not a painful one. Some things are just out of our hands. Other forces have the higher hand and the final say in it.

The more we learn about ourselves, the less we know about life.

Thank You always

God, I know You hear my every word. I know You watch over me, and do what You see best for me. Thank You, thank You for being my only shore. Where I run to and rest my all.
Strengthen my faith, teach me well to become who I was born to be.
Yesterday, I asked for Your blessings, You showered me, from daylight to night.
I cried for You. You washed my tears.
” I am there, always…have faith in me..” I heard You say.
Do not doubt Your presence in everything I do..In my heart I hear Your voice.
I can read Your messages through everything around me. I feel lucky and happy.

I raise my heart to You.
God, put me in the right track. Take me closer to fulfil my purpose in this life.
You know well my worries, fears and troubles… Let me move beyond that all.
Give me power to see the truth, and live it with You.
Bless me with Your guidance in every step I take.

Thank You God, thank You always.
Amen

Perseverance

“Keep walking. When you can’t run, walk. Never stop moving, unless you are getting ready to run once again! You may find the road difficult to walk, you may find people asking you to stop, you may find yourself exhausted, regardless all kinds of difficulties, discouragements and obstacles you may have to face, don’t stop.”

Day & night

Here comes the morning once again, after hours of darkness, shines the rays of light.
The peaceful night is over, and the busy morning is back. A new day, to be followed by a new night.
Everything new! Even us. With each rising morning and with each falling night, we are given new experiences and knowledge.
This beautiful nature adds something new to our personalities and characters.
By time we are able to learn more about ourselves, what matters most to us and what makes the difference in everything around us.
Although nature is the same, the sun and moon are the sun and moon, yet each morning and night are different. Just like us, we are different. Each one of us sees his/her own world through eyes that are never the same.
It is such an enriching life, when we are able to let time introduce us to ourselves. As each single day a new you is there, to meet you, to become one.
So, let’s be welcoming! And embrace the changes nature offers us.

I give it to You

God’s will shall be.

Years ago, a love was born in me. A love which was different than any other one.
It grew until it became a part of me. Now it became me.
I want to tell the world about it. How it gives me life.
I want to sing what this love means to me.
I put it in His hands.. As it is the safest place to be….
Believing in His will, whatever it shall be, will be.

God, keep our hearts in Your hands. Hold them close to Your heart. And when the right time comes join them together as one. Amen

A colourful blend

Today, and like every passing day, I realize more and more,
That I not only love you, but adore,
Every moment to come, making it safely to the shore,
Sharing the joy, then jumping together into the sea once more.
What is life but a colourful blend of hard times and good..
What is the sea but waves, ups and downs, if we only understood.
Time and space dancing our lives as they should,
While destiny playing the best melody it ever would.

Let us open our hearts and embrace this all.
Stand still against the storms, stand tall.
With faith and love, rise not fall.

The sun is up!

Playing with my hair, the hands of God wake me up to a morning that sings faith.
I can not stop smiling to it’s face, even in the worst of times. Seeing the glory of God rising infront of me, makes my world shine in hope.
I feel the power of the sun, the endless meanings of life that unfold with every single sunrise.
Blessed to be in the arms of God.
The bright rays of His love light up my room. My heart rejoices, praising His words.
I put my worries on His shoulder, and walk my morning in complete trust.
I shall not fear my tomorrow, for He will be there holding me closer, breathing in me strength and teaching me wisdom..
Keep shining my sun, for You are the one that keeps my smile glowing each day alive.

A prayer

To THE one who knows what’s in the hearts,

Do not stop showering us with YOUR blessings.
We are two, but one in YOU.
Teach us the lesson, let us understand it.
Take our hand, don’t push us away.
YOU know what’s there, YOU are always there.
Together we shall face the hard times and good ones.
Give us the strength and show us the way.
YOU are the only one who knows what’s in the hearts.
Amen

You

“Some things in your life, no matter what, will and shall always be there. The now and then shall never stay in the way. Simply because it lives in you and grows with you. It is not a part of you. It is not something belonging to you…. But it is one with you. It is you…”

Winds of change

Winds of change are blowing my way. Time taking control of my existence.
I tango with the wind, I bend not to break.
I hear time but feel afraid to listen. The changes ahead are difficult to accept.
Oh, time, be kind to me, don’t let the wind take along the one thing that gives me hope to go on.
Wind, dance all the moves, play all your games with me, but don’t blow away what I cherish most.
Hit me hard! break my leg! Help me be a stronger me.
Be gentle to the heart that deeply believes in a tomorrow better than what it is.

“So let’s dance together to the whispers of time and hold on to one another and enjoy the round.”

Mood Reflections

The worst thing anyone could do, to help destroy a peaceful love relationship, is magnifying the small issues and making a big deal out of it. Especially, when it has already been resolved. Digging in the past issues and opening closed subjects may lead both lovers to undesirable conversations, which will do no good for either one of them.

A Couple’s life is not easy. And love alone is not enough. Understanding the other and being patient are the baby steps of any long term, successful relation.
With the daily stress that couples face, it has become difficult to sustain ones temper and control ones anger. Being unable to manage both temper and anger, makes you face the ugly dead end. As we all know, once the conversation reaches to a dead end, silence finds its way. And when couples stop communicating, love starts fading.
On the other hand, taking your time and thinking before reacting helps you deal with the situation in a much better way. While over reacting and over rating the situation, threats the serenity lovers live.

One of the things I want to talk about, is what I call ” mood reflections “.
To make it more clear, I shall demonstrate it to you, through a simple example.
For instance, imagine yourself facing a hard day at work, everything seems to go in the wrong direction. You have financial difficulties, family issues, health problems. In other words, life seems to be treating you like a bitch! Keeping in mind that you are looking at your life, through a magnifying loupe.
The next think you know, you are angry, frustrated, sad and miserable about yourself and the world around you!
Your partner calls, or is back home and the poor thing, gets it all!
Now, here comes the big mistake, suddenly you find yourself picking up on him/her, pulling him/her down with you to the ditch.
Trying to hear what you have to say(nothing that makes sense), you drag him/her to where you are, not even allowing the other to pull you up.
And voila! there you are, simply reflecting your negative mood to your lover.
At this point, if both of you engage in a conversation, whatever it was, be cautious! cause you are getting closer and closer to the dead end.
Here, in this very moment, if your partner isn’t the understanding type of person, who absorbs all the bad from you not reflecting it back upon you, then consider yourself lucky!

No matter the difficult times you might be facing, be wise enough not to reflect your bad mood, not only to your lover but to the world around you as well.
Remember always, that your growth, as a couple, is based upon mutual understanding, clear communication, topped with pure love.

Thanks to time


In the middle of the chaos I hear the sudden silence. As if time freezes, along with everyone and everything around me, except me!
I listen carefully to what time has to say. I fear to hear what I cannot take. Yet, I accept and bend to the wind, shielded with patience, which I recently have been introduced to. Holding it close to me, protecting myself against myself, and against the changes time brings everyday.

When times freezes, I am able to see things as they really are.
I am able to see the real characters behind the faces. The silence which speaks louder than words, tell everything that words don’t dare to say. Virtues, morals, ethics, values that are all well spoken of, vanish when the silence is there. All run away and hide as they never belonged to the person who, made clear at a time, that these were part of him/her, in fact he/she was made of them all.
And on the other hand, I see hearts that were silent, speaking what they are made of. Hearts of gold that don’t speak of their virtues for they are busy living it!

I feel surrounded with this and that, each contribute to my own character, with what they hold within their owns. By being next to pretenders, I lose a lot of my powers which I am able to see when being close to the true beings, or whenever time freezes.
I see myself as a woman, who is willing to fight like no worrier ever fought, for what she believes in. A woman, who is brave enough to prove to the world around her that she is able to help change the bad to good and the weak to strong. A woman who believes in true love and how hard the coarse of true love is, willing to sacrifice her life to win the one love she was born to be with. A woman who sees tomorrow a better place regardless all the obstacles she is bound to face. A woman who is willing to spread love and care to any heart she meets, even if some of those hearts were black and dead.
But sadly enough, some of the people who claim virtue, are the same souls who drag you down. They drag you to places where you are forced to live the instabilities and insecurities that fill their lives, reflecting them on you. And in the middle of the chaos you find yourself living them too.

Thanks to time, I am able to know the pretenders from the real ones. People who claim what they don’t have and people who prove to you each day that silence speaks louder and deeds are what matter.
Thanks to time, I am able to choose, who to be around and who not to dare get close to.
And in the end, time alone has the say.

about patience

” Patience in our life, is like water to the traveller, without water no traveller is able to reach anywhere. When we are out of patience, we become tired and unable to continue with our journey as desired.
Yet if we know how to be patient, we are able to reach destinations we wouldn’t have thought of if we were in haste.”

Chapeau bas

A new lesson everyday, time has to teach me..
I work hard to learn those lessons. Yet I fail to understand them in it’s own time.
Understanding always comes long after the lesson has been taught. This particular fact, confuses me.
If I could only understand my lesson at the exact time I am being taught, things would take a whole different direction.
At least I would not over react or under estimate whatever I am going through. I would give the situation what it deserves not more nor less.
Obviously, for the last few months, time is showing me how to be patient.
To tell you the truth, it is working!
Time is the master. Listening to it is all it takes to be able to live in peace, peace with yourself and with the world you belong to.
The teacher sometimes has to be hard and firm, delivering you the lesson. Grabbing all your attention and focus, to be sure you got what it had to say. So when put to test, you know how to get your problems solved.

Another lesson time is teaching me is how to accept the reality as it is.
Sometimes the urge of changing the changes you are experiencing, becomes the rock that blocks your way, keeping change from changing.
With the hands of time, I accept the today. I try to understand, but again I fail.
Soon enough I realize that understanding lies in my acceptance to the reality.

Time moves forward. And because it doesn’t want to leave us behind, it gives us it’s hand and pulls us along.
Despite our lack of understanding to time’s actions at the moment of its happening, we still get to learn our lesson, sooner or later.

Hats off to the one and only master of all times, time!

Harmony

” Heart looked at mind and said: I am life. No matter what you think, no matter how hard you try to prove you are the only logic that people should follow to survive, without me you don’t exist. When I stop living, you stop too. But when you stop I still live.
Mind, addapt.. or you are gonna lose it!
I’d rather live with you in peace, than without you.
I’m always there, but you come and go. You confuse me. You change a lot.
You also disturb my peace.

Find your own peace so we can live together in harmony.”

Easier/less difficult


“What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other?” George Eliot
Well said Mary Ann Evans. She is an english novelist, journalist, translator and one of the leading writers of the victorian era.
As you see, she used a male pen name. I’m sure she had her reasons.

Reading my morning quotes, this particular one stopped me.
Suddenly, I time travelled 12yrs back. I remembered asking dad for the first time “what is life? why are we here? what for?”
Ready to hear some answers that would satisfy me. Being aware that we were here for a reason(s). His answer was not at all what I was expecting to hear.
From that day on, the world around me had changed. I felt naked!
Since then, I have been walking with heavy questions over my shoulders, seeking for the answers. Unconsciously, I work hard to find answers to those questions which sometimes keep me from enjoying life as is.

Every day, I find new and exciting reasons to be alive.
Time is showing me more of life. Taking me to places were my expectations never dared to go.
Exploring my own self, my own life.

I recently had come to the conclusion that life is a personal experience.

Which gets me back to Marry Ann’s quote. In other words, since we are living different lives but living it together..Let’s just make it easier for one another.

Within


I smile, and that’s how I wake up every morning!
For may be 15 minutes, then the smile fades away, while my thoughts start to wonder in my mind. Soon getting to my body and later to my heart!

I have been experiencing this for the last 2 or 3 months. I can feel the rhythm. The smile lasts longer, so does the rest that follows it.

I am fully aware that life holds great promises.

Inside me, runs the river. Slowly but deeply.
I can feel the flow, the water moving. Nothing stops it.

The river knows its water. The water is the river.
The river knows itself, that’s how it flows……….

I travel. Into nature, into others. To hear what they have to say.
My body is exhausted. So is my mind.
The heart is alive, and in total acceptance to whatever the body and mind bring of stress and fatigue. Ready to transform it into peace and contentment.

I hear my heart. I know it.

My heart is in the hands of time. Every beat has it’s tick and every tick has it’s beat.
My body and mind are seeking time.

I shall travel within. To the center of my being. For everything lies inside and not elsewhere.

Compare and compete


For different reasons, sometimes, it seems so difficult to visualize what’s best for you.
The best today is not always the best yesterday and may not be the best tomorrow.
To be your own judge is bad. And to be judged by others is even worse!
The best, the right, the important, the crucial, the healthiest, the…etc., it all adds on you extra pressure, you are in no need of.
Which in turn makes me come to the realization that, we are here to just live, be. Not here to prove something to anyone..and for sure not to prove anything to ourselves.
Just trying to see the reasons why we tend to do so, I stumble across two huge rocks, that block our way!
Comparison and competition.
Wow! They are for sure taking all we got of powers, from doing what we should be doing. Not the best, the right…but the thing we believe in and want to.
We become so obsessed, finding all kinds of reasons that keep us in that horrible dark room after being fallen into it, where you can only see yourself through others, compare and compete!
In that dark room, there is a small window, right in the corner, few of us dare to go near it. The fear of seeing your own reflection in the window keeps you from seeing your true colours. After you are almost colour blind(stumbling and falling because of those nasty rocks).
Most of us were born and raised to live in the dark. To live in groups, trained to do the best and be right. But according to what!?
Society, relegion, culture, tradition..well, all these should not stop you from moving towards the window. Infact, help you take bigger steps!
This life, is so full of colours. And somehow, we, some of us, choose to ignore it and go for the basics!
We are here not to prove anything! not to be anyone but ourselves.
Unfortunatly, I sometimes run away from the window, to the dark… compare and compete.. very much aware that by doing so, I am losing my colours.
It is challenging! But when the right time has come, it will not be anymore.
All we have to do is to keep walking to the window, until we are able to step out of the darkness.
Don’t think of the when and how, just keep walking and time will take care of you.
Once you have stumbled and fallen, it becomes your choice alone to get back on your feet and move on, also becomes your choice to stay there and feel at home!
I personaly, had enough of both those desructive habbits!
Life is such an adventure, where you get to learn different things, only to make you wiser, so you are able to follow your journey in full trust that you will reach to where you are destined to be.

My sun and moon

Usualy I go to sleep while “la luna” stays awake, watching over me. I love its face looking down on me.
Yesterday of all days, I felt it was intruding my quiet night!
Every time I closed my eyes, heard it calling me! My dark bedroom sparkled with it’s glow whenever I was about to fall asleep.
What is it luna that you want to say?
It didn’t go away, it didn’t answer, stayed there and kept me wondering..
I felt it wanted to tell me a secret, but didn’t know how or where to start… or may be it was feeling lonely and wanted my company through the night!
My dreams called me to sleep.
And when the sun kissed me good morning, I knew what the moon was hiding.
La luna, saw before me, the nightmare which I had to live!
Deep blue waters, floating boat, dancing to the high waves, in the dark night, fearing the unpleasant end.
But soon the sun filled the skies, calmed down the waves and saved all on board…

That is how my sun and moon watch over me, all day and night long.

A morning kiss good night to the moon, and a sunny one to the shining sun.

A new year

I listen to the words in every love song
Feeling it in my heart, singing along
Your love in me grows strong
Meant to be, I believe we belong

Year after year, falling into you
Making through the good and hard times too
I realize that the best thing to do,
Is to fall in love more and more with you

I wish tomorrow brings you its best
In everything you do, you be blessed
May God be with you in your quest
And all your troubles and worries divest

..filled with blessings.

Life is a well filled with endless blessings. All you have to do is to fill your own bucket. Try counting your countless blessings!

Even in the worst of times, if you look inside your bucket and see only your troubles, make sure to look deeper, find hope, and for sure you will find more than a blessing folded inbetween.

That doesn’t mean life is always pink!
Infact for some people Life has no color, a colorless picture drawn by misery, trouble and misfortune.
Hungry people, homeless people, people who found themselves bound to misery for a reason or another, not of their choice. Thousands and millions of colorless pictures.

Believe and have faith in Life! The well will never dry!
Those two, will give you the power to drop your bucket into the well, and pull it out full.

Easy said than done! You think so? I don’t!
Always remember, “Better to try and fail than to never try at all.”
And when you try, you will know that life gives generously who seek.

It’s okay to feel down sometimes, hopeless and sad.. It’s okay to cry. To rebel. To kick the bucket! To curse you are alive!
But what’s not okay is to stay down!
Stand up, so you can reach the well! See what you can make out of it. Drop your bucket in faith. Fill it with blessings.
Remember, the well never dries. But the bucket may have some cracks, make sure your bucket has none.
Although even if it does, you will still be unable to count your blessings!

Surprisingly you will, by time, see the joy in your troubles and hope in your difficulties. Together with your belief and faith, you shall be able to enjoy, the smallest of things. Appreciate and be content to be a part of Life.

May God give us strength to hold on, to stand tall. May God give us vision to see the well and what’s within. May He fill our buckets with infinite blessings. Lead us to His ways and show us the right paths.
God keep blessing us with your love, Amen.

Speak up

” A lot of times, I ask myself, what if?? Then, I sigh.
There is no way you could know the true intentions of someone, except through time.
So, time, speak up, don’t just stay there and watch!”

Understand

My love was raped and now you ask me to forget.
I shall forget, but can you promise I won’t regret?

A new beginning, a fresh start, based on clarity and trust.
Blind eyes, unfolded, that can see what’s just and unjust.

Confused heart beating to win its self-worth back.
Time flowing, the clock ticking, tic tac-tic tac.

Tears of hope, tears of faith washing away the hazy past,
Filling my all, I fear of drowning in its oceans vast.

Listen and understand, so I can stand tall again.
Facing my fears, I can break free from that strangling chain.

I am here today, asking you to be the one with me.
Take me in, open your all and let WE be.

Protect the heart that suffered a lot because of you
The heart that beats alive, just and only for you.

Be it

“When the waves are high, don’t resist, don’t fight. Surrender instead. Go with the flow. The flow of change. Even if it’s heading to chaos. Breathe. Accept. Feel change as it flowes through you…be one.. be the flow.”

With your love…

With your love I need no wings to fly
Spreading my heart, I can reach the highest sky

With your love my days are always alive
Breathing your air, my life you revive

With your love I see what cannot be seen
Touching my soul, I become a queen

With your love I fear no fear
Believing in WE, I persevere

With your love I am who I want to be
Living in your arms, I live my destiny

“Transparency”

According to Angelheart:

Transparency is one of the key values that contributes in building and maintaining trust.
Transparency is simply being transparent.
Transparency is being open, clear and frank towards yourself and the others.
Transparency is droping off your ego, fear and all kinds of hidden agendas.
Transparency is the foundation stone of both, sense of security and safety.
Transparency is the best and shortest way of communicating.
Transparency is the short cut raod to understanding.
Transparency is sharing.
Transparency is the state of achieving peace

Transparency is freedom.

Hold me

God I put my heart in Your hands.To bless it with more of Your love.
I know that You give, those who ask. I know You hear them from above.

I need You today, as I always did, do and will.
Don’t let my heart fall off Your hands, hold it still.

For whatever I do, I think of You.
Each step I take, is to get closer to You.

Help me be who You want me to be,
All I want is Your light to shine on me.

I run to You, my home, no matter what,
Cause I know You will be waiting for that.

Protect me and protect those who I care for
Bless me and them more and more.

Save our souls from the fall,
Hear me God, hear my call.

Amen

With you

Without you I smile.. With you my heart smiles.
Without you I see the beauty.. With you I enjoy the beauty.
Without you I eat.. With you I taste.
Without you I go to bed to sleep.. With you I sleep to dream.
Without you I walk in hope.. With you I walk in faith.
Without you I wish.. With you I believe.
Without you I am me.. With you I am myself.
Without you hours are days.. With you years are moments.
Without you time goes by.. With you time comes along.
Without you the world is mine.. With you I am the world

Without you I survive.. With you I am alive.

I love

“When you love someone, you would enjoy every time your love is put to test. Because time will only prove that true love never fails.”

Stop censorship
