Fools rush in

I heard this song in a film titled 'Fools rush in' and I just fell in love with the lyrics. It resurrected my years as a teenager complaining and bragging about my folks, times when I fought with my angels over a silly remote, begging to help me out with my journals, whispering in the dark below the sheets after ma turned off the lights, gazing at the sky when all went asleep, aspired to be a doctor, then a writer and then an officer diving into the blue sky, lost and found I wondered like everyone else ...

Go ahead, you must read it too ...

When I was younger I believed, that dreams came true.
Now I wonder.
Cause' I've seen much more dark skies, than blue.
Now I wonder.
I keep on praying for a blue sky, I keep on searching through the rain.
I keep on thinking of the good times, will they ever come again?
Now I wonder.
Now I wonder.
I keep on praying for a blue sky, I keep on searching through the rain.
I keep on thinking of the good times, will they ever come again?
Now I wonder.
Now I wonder.
When I was younger I believed, that I could win.
Now I wonder.
There was a time when you and I, walked hand & hand.
Now I wonder.
I keep on searching for the old me, I keep on thinking I can change.
I keep on hoping for a new day, will I ever feel the same?
Now I wonder.
Oh I wonder.
Now I wonder.

Motherhood




All these years I was confined by the bond of motherhood, the moment this bond slipped out of my hands, I realize that it was, not just a bond but a relationship that I never chose but it had a composure that none of the other relations, that I choose would ever have, she helped me to see this world even when she did not know me, she carried me all the way with a smile on her face and pain in her eyes which hardly anyone noticed because they anticipated me not the pain she went through, she did things that she despised just to nourish me when I was within her just to be certain that I was fine, she cried when I sought to step out from the darkness to the world of light but when I opened my eyes, I saw her smiling at me forgetting the moments of pain, apprehensions and all that she had to undergo all this while, her face was glowing with contentment, she was no more a woman but my mother whom I knew now and I gave her a sense of creation, a sense of wholeness within herself as she attained motherhood.

with music playing in my ears i take one step at a time towards something new thinking times will change seasons come and go but heart...
