Take Heart !

Take Heart
But also
take comfort, healing, rest and love
Leave sorrow
amongst the rocks and woods who most of the time
are far stronger
better able to handle such loads
Take courage
But also,
take honesty, courtesy, empathy and patience
Leave doubt
amidst the deep ocean waters
watch it sink there
until you cannot cling to it any longer
Take faith
but leave with an open mind, an open hand, open arms
Take whatever you need to make it through
leave what keeps you from going on
Tears only go so far
Fear only holds so long
Though your feet may bleed and your hands, tremble
Take deep compassion for the suffering of another
and journey on !

Seeing It... !!..

"If the Human Body is Obscene, Complain to the manufacturer, Not Me." ~Larry Flynt Long back while watching Discovery Channel. In a Program, I heard them say: "Our Body is Dynamic. Changes every day. Each & Every Day... ! Human Skeleton is COMPLETELY RENEWED every 10 years." *Current Research -- PMID: 8519493, PMID: 597437 [[ Pubmed IDs ]] We say that: (1) His Eyes are intense. (2) Her Smile is good. etc. IS IT FOR ALL? ...ALWAYS?? I'm trying to say that - Its All in the Eyes ! A person lying naked on the bed... can be anyone from a child to someone selling body for money. And EYES can be anything from Saintly Ignorant to Gyenocologist at Work to a Ponce to Sharp Shooter to Fighter Pilot to a Mother [[who feels - and not just See It !]] Some Child [[unable to See beyond some feet !]] to a Blind [[who still can see - WITHOUT EYES !]]... Or may be YOUR OWN EYES ! Well this Human Body as we SEE is not the same for long. Beautiful today, can be Granny tom...

Life is a possibility , embrace it . Life is beautiful , admire it . Life is wonderful , enjoy it . Life is a dream , follow it . Life is a bewilderment , face it . Life is a mission , fulfill it . Life is a game , play it . Life is a treasure , cherish it . Life is rich , savior it . Life is lovely , revere it . Life is a mystery , uncover it . Life is pain , endure it . Life is a song , sing it . Life is a tragedy , forbear it . Life is luck , benefit from it . Life is an adventure , be regardful of it . Life is very precious , delight in it . Life is a war , learn from it . Life is life , fight for it . ~MOTHER TERESA (Translated in English by Masiela Lusha, "Life")

A Man of Truth, must be a Man of Care ! ~Mahatma Gandhi Voces (1943) Translated from Spanish by W.S. Merwin A door opens to me. I go in and am faced with a hundred closed doors. He who holds me by a thread is not strong; the thread is strong. My great day came and went, I do not know how. Because it did not pass through dawn when it came, nor through dusk when it went. You are sad because they abandon you and you have not fallen. I would go to heaven, but I would take my hell; I would not go alone. My heaviness comes from the heights. Would there be this eternal seeking if the found existed? We become aware of the void as we fill it. Because they know the name of what I am looking for, they think they know what I am looking for ! A thing, until it is everything, is noise, and once it is everything it is silence. Before I travelled my road I was my road. When I die, I will not see myself die, for the first time. *** Antonio Porchia (November 13, 1886 - November 9, 1968) was an Italian...
