I came from the ashes
And to the ashes
I will go.
But can death snatch me away
Untill it's time?
Time …Time is very strong.
It stops for none.
Gradually …
It moves on.
But pains...
Do they dull with time?
Can we ever hide ourselves
Inside the womb of time
Just to escape
From the pains of life?
Do they dull with time?
Can we ever hide ourselves
Inside the womb of time
Just to escape
From the pains of life?
I believe…
Pains are not to be escaped
But to be dealt with.
By taking the help of our
Evergreen Spirit.
The moment I have learnt
To love my life.
My cruel pains have lost
All their burning shines.
To love my life.
My cruel pains have lost
All their burning shines.
Now in pain my pains cry
Whenevr they see my eyes
Full of love and zest
For life.
Whenevr they see my eyes
Full of love and zest
For life.

Not long I realized that I am one of the many beautiful creations of God and like everything else my life has got a meaning too.
Few days back Shalini tag me to write about my new year resolutions. But I am one of those who can never stick to their resolutions. Infact I don’t believe in resolutions. ( Dear Shalini, I hope this post will be fine!)
But today on 1st jan’08 I promise to myself that I will always love and respect my life as well as each and evrything around me no matter what. It is not a resolution but a promise meant not only for 2008 but forever till I am alive. (Yes till I am alive because I don’t have any idea about after death life.)
After all..
“I am living not because I was born. But I was born because I want to live.”

I just enjoyed this post girl. So true, natural and straight from heart.
ReplyDeletePains are not to be escaped
But to be dealt with.
- So true and we have to face coz life is to balance.
Nice resolution preeti..
ReplyDeletePains are meant to be there, and so will be happiness, so lets all just accept life and live it to the full
That was wonderful and absolutely heart-rending,and the pics so beautiful-the last one was really captivating,did you take it?

Clear and smooth writing as usual. Pain is an important color on the palette of life. It can tell us many things about our selves and it can help in healing. Also, we can plan for tomorrow but remember to make our plans flexible and live for today to the fullest.
ReplyDeletehmmm hmm quite heavy aint it??? but still its quite nice...gives a lot to think about.actually, thinking bout it....its thought bout quite a lot.lol...happy new year......
ReplyDeletefreat thoughts, dear! so much from your heart :)
ReplyDeleteWe should cherish and love our life the way it is :)
have a wonderful new year, dear! :)
Hi Preetilata,
ReplyDeleteI love those vignettes of poetry you wrote. They are short but very meaningful. Yes, I agree with you. It's better to make a soul promise than to make those crazy resolutions that can never be attained in the long run. It just leaves us bitter and frustrated with ourselves. Thanks for the beautiful post. May this year bring you the realization of all your fondest wishes in your heart. God bless and enjoy the best this year 2008.
HAPPY NEW YEAR LIL GIRL :) LOTS OF LOVE & BEST WISHES FROM THIS OLD(yupp i spelled it right) FELLOW :)
ReplyDeleteI too don bliv in new yr resolutions... but just thought to xprmnt wid my heart this session... dont think it in ur naughty way :P I mean to say, being an aged cardiac patient... the rest u can understand... Hahaaa
Jokes apart what about u? now a days u r totally out of touch...
Smile :)
"“I am living ... live.”
ReplyDeletestrong adn confident :)
and dealing with pain - well, in myc ase, i accept the pain and accept the fact that the pain can't hurt me - adn it vanishes like magic :) the key point of finding happiness is to realise that meaning of life is to live teh life fully at every monent and be happy...
ncie lines, preethi...
nice composition....your thoughts are from deep within your heart....you are right...god has sent you to earth because you want to live....pain and happiness are part and parcel of one's life....forget about all this and live your life KING SIZE.
