The stories we tell the kids.

"You may spend years building something, and someone might just break it in a moment. Build it anyway".
-poster inscription.

It didn't rain that day, miracle had lost its way. But friends and family found their way, support and encouragement came, and at that point, that was all she needed.

Sometimes we need to fall, to be strong again. And that day, she did. It was going to be a hard crash, but it didn't hurt that much because there were beautiful people waiting to catch her from below. Most importantly, one mighty hand. He didn't let go, and He never will.

" Everyone falls, the only difference is how fast do you rise up again."
- Dr Suriya

The stories we tell the little ones are of dreams which comes true, that good man always win. But as we grow, we learn not all dreams come true. Good people do loose sometimes. But then again, that is for you to decide. Your dream might be crushed and stepped upon, and you can leave the broken pieces laying there, or, pick the broken pieces up and put them together again. When you pick it up, that is when heroes are born, and good people win. Because too many has had their share of vision broken, many has blown off the burning passion, the world needs to know that the flames are still there, its waiting for you.

You can be a hero.

Pick the pieces up, so we wont have to tell the kids a different story.

Good people do win. Dreams do come true. There are happy endings, but for now, the story hasn't ended.

Good day.

A toast to uncertainty.

She waits.


INGREDIENTS

4 tablespoon of Time
2 1/2 tablespoon of Sweat
1 large tablespoon of Tears
1 large squeeze of Passion
2 leaves of Vision
2 cups of Courage
A pinch of Faith and Persistence
A handful of Believe
A jug of Hope


1. First, get a large empty container. It might be dry and empty, but that would still work. Put in 2 leaves of Vision. Be sure not to tear them apart.

2. Then add in 4 tablespoons of Time. It usually takes more than just 4 tablespoons but don't use too much of Time, or there won't be anymore left for your family and friends and yourself.

3. As time settles in the container, it will need 2 1/2 cup of sweat and 1 large tablespoon of Tears.

4. The smell of the ingredients put together at this point might be bad or rather tiring, but that can be solved with a large squeeze of Passion.

5. Then, some would like to add 2 cups of fear instead of Courage, but I would highly recommend that you add in 2 cups of Courage. You might need more, depending on how the others might think of the Vision.

6. Now, it might smell taste like doubt, so add in a pinch of Faith and Persistence. Yeap, that's all the Faith you need, a pinch. Don't forget to throw in a handful of Believe.

7. The final part is adding one of the important ingredient. Pour in a jug of Hope. You will need a lot of it.

8. Now stir them and let them sit in the jug. Let it settle.

NOTE : This drink might taste like disappointment, but it might also taste like sweet victory. It all depends now on the time left to set aside and the amount of miracle foam that might appear on the top layer. Yes, the Miracle layer must form by itself. You can try asking though its not sold.

Miracle Foam, wait for it. Don't prepare this drink by yourself, you might get really tired and you might just fall off. Be sure to get a good friend to make it with you.


There they wait, to make a toast to uncertainty.

Good day.

Take A Different Turn

She was going to the rivers, but she took a different turn, and she found herself near the ocean instead.

Breath of life. She encountered those three words. It sounds so refreshing, so fulfilling, words cannot describe. What does it mean really she doesn't know. She cannot define it. But she feels it. Familiar?

Definitions.

Its almost funny how as the earth decays, and we step into a new day, our arguments, our discussions, and decisions are made based on definitions. Define God or define love. Those are the two questions many still prefer boggling their mind over. For the record though, God is Love.

Back to defining, in other words, giving meaning. That is the whole purpose of having definitions isn't it? Or at least it was the purpose initially. Now, the instead of giving meaning and painting a clearer picture, instead it serves to limit our minds, our feelings. Funny isn't it?

Breath of life.

Life - you are without definition, and yet we're thrown into you. Just when we thought we have it all figured, you toss and turn us upside down, you paint us a different picture just to show us, there is more - much more.

Life. Live it with love guarding your steps. Let Love help you forgive, because It does. Let Love help you hold on, because It will never let your foot slip. Love, because Love created life.

This is how her mind took a different turn, for all it was searching was life, but Love was what found.

Now you take a different turn, see where that might lead you.

Good day.

Make it happen

Movies. Sometimes the most inspiring things or rather words, hits you when you least expect it.

There is always a story behind every man who walks away from his dream.
- Make it Happen (movie)

But that doesn't give you all the reason to walk away from yours. Run after your dreams, pursue it, live it, then tell a different story.

But its so much easier said than done isn't it? A good friend once said, at times we forget why we chose the routes that leads us to where we are now. But just keep walking anyway, because you're halfway there.

Now, come to think about it, it makes a lot of sense. Keep running, and when you get tired, keep walking, but if you're too weak and need rest, take a seat-rest but don't stop dreaming because that way, when you wake up, you'll have a reason to run again.

Good day.

Let it rain

Her anecdote.

The past couple of weeks has been so wonderful to her, it still is - a little. That's because the past couple of weeks has turned its back on her, and is plotting with disappointment and worry. Some say, it is only after a fall, we will stand up stronger, I couldn't agree more. Now, I'm not suggesting that she is falling. She is slipping, yes, not falling. She is loosing her grip, loosing her steps-yes. We've all been there isn't it? Doubts, worry and anxiety.

The Ark.

She has been working on- lets say a huge ark. Because she thought the rain was going to come- a flood. So she makes the announcements, builds the boat and gathers the people. A lot of people. And these people have said their goodbyes to their belongings, some have crushed their homes and memories built. So she's really positive about this ark and the rain, and the flood. Only problem here is, the past few days the sky seemed really clear and bright, like it could almost laugh at her plans.

Knock

That's when doubt came knocking at her door. And she can still hear its voice. Then again, she remember someone once said, when doubt comes knocking at your door, let faith get the door. If only its as easy as it is said. Especially when faith likes playing hide and seek.

Wait and Believe.

But it all comes down to a choice isn't it. A choice to search faith or loose it and find fear instead. Its time to wait and believe. The ark is built, the people are here. Now, wait and believe. Sometimes its so difficult to believe, to let faith answer the door when fear has reached the door handle. Difficult - but not impossible. As of now, the doors are still unanswered.The knocks are turning into loud bangs now.

Well, if you happen to bump into faith, tell her I'm looking for her. Tell her its urgent.

Lord, let it rain - please.
