mother

I would pick my mother

To be my mother

Again and again

In every lifetime.

So I could cuddle

And sleep 

warm In her hug

So I could hold her hands

And go for a night walk

And feel how peaceful

The night is.

So I could have someone 

To wait for me 

To have lunch together

She won't be perfect 

But I will choose my mom

Again and again 

Until she realises that 

She's the perfect mom for me...

"Do you love Me?" Alice asked.

"No, I don't love you!" replied the White Rabbit.

Alice frowned and clasped her hands together as she did whenever she felt hurt.

"See?" replied the White Rabbit. "Now you're going to start asking yourself what makes you so imperfect and what did you do wrong so that I can't love you at least a little.

You know, that's why I can't love you. You will not always be loved Alice, there will be days when others will be tired and bored with life, will have their heads in the clouds, and will hurt you.

Because people are like that, they somehow always end up hurting each other's feelings, whether through carelessness, misunderstanding, or conflicts with themselves.

If you don't love yourself, at least a little, if you don't create an armour of self-love and happiness around your heart, the feeble annoyances caused by others will become lethal and will destroy you.

The first time I saw you I made a pact with myself: 'I will avoid loving you until you learn to love yourself.' "~

~Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland 💋

Lighthouse

Becoming a mother

without a mother

is like trying to steer a ship through the sea 

in the dead of night.

The ocean is vast and deep and overwhelming

enough as it is.

But now it is dark too.

Your lighthouse is missing.

It is not there to light the way for you

or to guide you safely home.

And whilst this alone is tough enough,

you must also now become the lighthouse

for someone else.

You must light yourself up for them

even though you feel such darkness.

You must keep them afloat

even though you feel like you’re drowning.

Yes, being a mother

without a mother 

is like being thrown in at the deep end as both 

a parent and a child all at once.

And as your child’s mother, you know you need to swim.

But as your mother’s child, you are not sure how.

But please know,

that even though your mother is not here,

you are not without her.

And the reason you know how to be the lighthouse

now is because of her. 

Because her light lives in you. 

It lives through you. 

It is still lighting the way and guiding you home.

So though the ocean is still 

vast and deep and overwhelming,

trust that you can steer your way through the darkness.

Because of her. 

Because she taught you how to shine.

Who is in the house of my heart?

"Who is in the house of my heart?"

I cried in the middle of the night.

God said, "It is I, but what are all these images

that fill your house?"

I said, "They're the reflection of Your beautiful face."

God asked, "But what is this image full of pain?"

I said, "it is me lost in the sorrows of life,"

and showed God my soul full of wounds.

God offered me one end of a thread and said,

"Take it so I can pull you back, 

but do not break the delicate string."

I reached towards it but He struck my hand.

I asked, "Why the harshness, O my Lord?"

God said, "To remind you that those who come 

to My holy space proud and full of themselves,

will be sent away.

Look at your God with the eyes of your heart."

Steve jobs

The last words of Steve Jobs, billionaire, dead at 56:

"I have reached the pinnacle of success in business." In other people's eyes my life is a success.

However, aside from work, I’ve had little joy.

At the end of the day, wealth is just a fact I’ve gotten used to.

Right now, lying on my hospital bed, reminiscing all my life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth I took so much pride in, has faded and become meaningless in the face of imminent death.

You can hire someone to drive your car or make money for you, but you can't hire someone to stand sick and die for you.

Material things lost can be found again. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost: Life.

Whatever stage of life we are currently at, in time we will face the day the curtain closes.

Love your family, spouse, children and friends... Treat them right .

Cherish them.

As we get older, and wiser, we slowly realize that wearing a $300 or $30 watch both give the same time

Whether we have a $300 or $30 wallet or purse, the amount inside is the same.

Whether we drive a $150,000 car or a $30,000 car, the road and the distance are the same, and we reach the same destination.

Whether we drink a $1000 or $10 bottle of wine, the hangover is the same.

Whether the house in which we live is 100 or 1000 square meters, loneliness is the same.

You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from material things of this world.

Whether you travel first class or economy class, if the plane crashes, you go down with it...

Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have friends, brothers and sisters, with whom you discuss, laugh, talk, sing, talk about north-south-east or heaven and earth,... this is the real happiness!!

An indisputable fact of life:

Don't raise your children to be rich.

Educate them to be happy.

When they grow up, they will know the value of things and not the price. "

Optimist

"I have become my 

own version of an 

optimist. 

If I can’t make it 

through one door, 

I’ll go through 

another door, 

or I’ll make a door.

✨

Something terrific 

will come no matter 

how dark the present."

💛 Rabindranath Tagore

Hugsss

I feel you at sleepless nights

As tight as night hugs the moon

And regret this life for not having 

Enought moments to spend with you

To hug you tight and never let go. 

I don't know how it feels 

But its precious that even makes my eyes full with tears. 

Don't leave in a hurry while

 i thank God for you being a part of my life
