Resilience!!

It doesn’t matter…if our car broke down in the middle of the road, if the insurance costs became higher than our paychecks, if a burglar just managed to ransack our house & if the competition we so prepared for, failed...!

It doesn't matter...if our dinner got burned, if we lost on our most desired dream job, if we always got late...and failed time & again in love & health...The power of belief on which we all breed; the certain knowledge we have of our own; the enduring will which never gives in & the little stress that we must take, helps us overcome all the hardships, and gets us the very faith that 'everything' shall someday, one-day, be all right..........

"The harder we're hit by life, the stronger we get!!" And it’s our resilience that always helps, bring us BACK!!

Carpe Diem

Home they brought her warrior dead;
She nor swooned, nor uttered cry.
All her maidens, watching, said;
She must weep or she will die.
 
 -Alfred Tennyson

I read these lines and somehow it clicked me....What is life without loss??
It has only taught me to hold on to what I had with even more tenacity than dread losing it; or treat what I have with the utmost care and give it the most love...for who knows what tomorrow may bring...
I'm worn-out by that line....'Who knows what tomorrow may bring?'

Well, I know..
Tomorrow will bring more strength, more dreams, more people, more companions, more of healing, a stock of beautiful lines.. :) Besides, endless eternal love.
Tomorrow will bring, the realization that if I fail to become the most precious person in someone's world....
...I will most definitely be the provider,
because this heart's been tested already;
I know of its adaptability, But I'd always prefer its charity.

After all, what hasn’t killed it, only has made it stronger!! It works out somehow, always in the same pattern. The awful epiphany is that hardships continue to draw nearer in our distant tomorrows & all of us are blessed with our own valences. Nevertheless what truly defines us in the end, is how much we contain within and how much do we let go..
Ah!! But is that really enough for what tomorrow may bring??
I could drool....but.. that wouldn't stop me...

I'd proliferate through my wisdom & experiences...Meaning who wouldn't smile thinking of the stupid things, done in the past…those failure of relationships, those breaking of rules, those disregards for all good once to be had & missing it the most ever since it got misplaced.
Yes, it's better to weep, than be a living dead......

It is dull
It is windy
It is hurting
It will pass...

I am sniffling
I am worried
I am writing
I will be done.

Time is constant.
Time is changing.
Time is fleeting.

"Carpe diem  > Seize the moment , the day, whatever.............value".

  1. The Best One Ever!!! I read the lines from Tennyson's poem and sit upright to only lavishly indulge into what you had to say and where would it lead! From start to end, this one is "so much said in such fewer words" You rock baby!!
    ps - I need more love...can you clean my room and cook me a meal today please;)
