There were two men, both seriously ill, who shared the same hospital room. One man got a seat next to the room’s only window. The man was also allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help him drain fluids from his lungs. The other man had to spend all his time lying flat on his back.
These men talked for hours on end.
The two roommates quickly bonded and started talking for hours on end. They talked about their lives, their job, children and wives. One day the man on the other side of the window, expressed how he envied the man near the window. From that day the man near the window started describing all the things he could see outside the window.
The window
The window overlooked a lovely park with a lake. Ducks played on the lake…
Trapped behind the walls Uncertain about the future Happiness may seem obscured
But Happiness is relentless May even defeat time Happiness resides where there is light
Memories of the past Etched in our minds May bring a flashing smile
Happiness is never alone Seldom lingers inside solitary doors Happiness is sharing or to share is happiness
Happiness is real when shared– Christopher McCandless
I would like to Thank Tanya Sheik( https://abuddingspark.wordpress.com/ ) for nominating me for Awesome Blogger award and Vincent Ehindero Award (quite sometime ago)
The morning comes with a new beginning, new hope, more inspiration and more positive vibes.
I couldn’t have asked more from the wonderful wordpress community for giving me 1000 followers. Let me sip my coffee which I prefer with sugar and milk and settle down with this amazing feeling, cheers everyone!
The journey so far has been more about downs than ups. I started blogging back in 2015, wrote for 2-3 months and then the gap of almost 5 years, got stuck in a rat race and struggles of life.
I am still struggling but maybe getting to see the bigger picture. You see I use the word ‘ maybe’ a lot because I am so uncertain about things. Many will think how confused I am though they will agree that-
Life is all about uncertainty. One moment you are full of happiness, the other you struggle with grief.
The reason we exist is because of the balance of nature, because of the empathy of the universe and yet we humans lack it to a great extent. And that’s why there is so much of chaos nowadays.
Our violent yellow star can annihilate our planet if it really touches it physically but it chooses to stay away and show its kindness by giving life to us.
Similarly the planets, the moons, the stars and the galaxies all depend on each other for their survival. Empathy rules to a great extent, Infact life itself is a product of empathy, the balance.
I know many people will say its all about sciencebut mind you even science has a heart!
But we humans are deterring from our path. We hardly care about others, barely connect with them , hate has become a new normal . Compassion has become a rare commodity…
I spent most of my day snuggling with Daisy in day, sleeping. I got up at 2 to shop with my sister.
It really aggravates me she never carries her cell phone with her. Ever. She just leaves it in the car.
I hadn’t been feeling well and stayed by the entrance. Rather than look for her. Seated on the bench. Half asleep I hadn’t noticed my sister and niece had walked by.
The greeter warned me my sister walked by me. I got up thanked the greeter and hurried after my sister.
Who apparently was so in her little world that she didn’t hear me call her name. After the third time she suddenly whirled around.
“Oh my god! You are embarrassing me! Stop yelling my name!” She cried.
Startled, I glared at her. Now she is this type of person who constantly worries about what people thinks about…
Some people say if it was that bad why did you stay. People stay because they are afraid of being ostracized. We all want to belong and therefore we self deface ourselves by being in relationships that damages our psyche and our health. Feel free to agree or disagree with me. We attribute blame to other people for all that ails us. If you are a kid you have no control but when you are grown you can detach yourself from relationships that are stagnant or that are not a contributing factor to your common good. Family has nothing to do with blood, true family is a bond that stays together in good times as wells as trying times. If you can’t depend on those who say they are there for you, unloose the knot and let them go.
