To the spring

I ween I was never alone,
damp shielded by the old parched leaves,
For all my desires left forgone,
I smell the scent of holy eves,
Though the mystery was tough to solve,
How the greens through the dirt might evolve,
And to my gaze it was merely obscure,
Until I know, here's the spring for sure

You can live with a victim mindset,
Keep blaming the circumstances and people around you,
Filling yourself with sympathy,

Or take charge of your life and make everyday count

Your life is defined by the story you tell yourself about yourself repeatedly.

She felt something suffocating her inside,
her heart wrenched to cry and scream,
yet she remained silent watching
her new born sleep next to her,
She was broken with all the withdrawal from her career, ambitions, health, likes and discomforts.

They say it's just a new phase and
soon you will get adapted to it,
Little do they know it's not about thinking maturely,
but about killing something that once existed
but now will never,
She started living one day at a time forcing herself to learn to be happy with the present of life,

Motherhood hit her differently, but she still was a mother who was ready for the sacrifices
that her little world demands her for.

Kuch naye cheheron se
humari mulaqat huyi thi,

Phir pata chala ki bus
nakab ka badalna hua tha

We have to learn to be our
own emotional support.

As time goes by, we realise that all the energy needed to get motivated and started,
was already inside us.

All we had to do was to adjust our focus.

-

Maybe those little fingers are short of words,
we as parents, need to learn to communicate and be kind.

Lets try to be more patient and curious, who knows what it's like to be with our little universe

I may be troublesome mama,
I may have hurt you at times,
I might be self absorbed many times,
I may have failed to make you proud,
But believe me, I love you so much and I struggle to be a good daughter,
I'm just overwhelmed and don't know how to handle my upsets and disappointments,
I'm sorry that you have to go through everything all by yourself.

With love,
Your little munchkin

God knows the truth - the good, bad and ugly,
then why so much drama

-

The amount of money we make or the number of possessions we have,
doesn't define us,
we are defined by the value we bring to the table each and everyday,

All we have to do is to close our eyes and reflect upon our actions and their impact on others,
what could we learn from it,
how could it be improved,
what could be avoided.

Life is too short to compare our lives with others, everyone's journey is unique
Let's count our blessings and start living a meaningful life.

-

It doesn't matter how fiercely
the darkness cages you,
let your purpose be strong enough
to ignite every barrier
and seize the greatness
