Stand up, dear

Yes it hurts, but stand up, dear. If they don't want to be your friends, don't be upset. Be kind. Be the best person you can be and walk away from the hate. Don't chase after hate. Find the love and become love. Show the world something better than hate. #stopbullying

Remember

Soul, do you remember the beginning?
We've lost ourselves in the sweetness of life,
these shiny, lifeless, metals trap our attention and beg for our caress

How easy it is to race after obligations and unmet tasks
And for what?
Unfulfilled.
Time passes.
Precious, mysterious, calling...time.

Almost

There's a slight tremble to her walk

An uneasiness in her words

Her confidence has been shaken

just enough

How could she have doubted?

How could she have thought

that the world could ever match

His munificence and love

She saw it today.

She felt it, an intense wind storm

a reminder so bone-chilling  

yet somehow gentle in His grace

your star waits for you

your soul was made with his

so here I am

running back 

to

You

Bye Ms. Murji

Leaving mid-year hasn't really been sitting well, but it does offer some thoughtful reflection:

"Ms. Murji, when will you be coming back? I hope you come back soon. I think only you can handle the jokes we all tell :D"

Sigh. Made me smile.

I will miss you, students...and home.

It's time for round 2...

Together

How are you, my star?

frightened

You know that I will always do anything for you...

I’m sorry that I'm so frustrated today

my darling, did you forget?…that is why we are together.

///////
so i hardly qualify things that are written here..but i started to wonder..readers. I wondered if you knew that i'm talking about you.
This post is dedicated to those around me...around you...that support us, that hold us up. Those who remind us the very reason we connect and feel each other's experiences - .... those that stand with us.. because we are together.
This is why we are together...my dear friends, thank you for holding me up in those moments where all i can do is ... explain how scary things have become.
My dear, darling, beautiful soul connections - how grateful i am to be beside you... all of you, too. 

Round 2

I suppose the last time wasn't correct, it wasn't enough, it wasn't the right way

so here we are, at this unclaimed square.. left to ponder, to search..to move

I don't mind resetting, I can try again

my only concern is

where

can i be without

you?

The Way

I know.
you're tired.. but come, this is the way...
this is the way to your being, your essence, and Truth...

come, this is the way...

Closer

you awakened me today.

I had always imagined a time, fantasized about a time... an occurrence where you drew me closer to you.

Oh how discouraged I was when I would call for you and I heard nothing.
I would sing for you and my notes would reach a field of darkness.

who knew that it was as simple as becoming silent and aspiring for peace... then i found You.

Lost ones

Are you sad, star?

This journey is unpredictable.
A little too unpredictable.
Those loved and lost...those we expected much from have disappointed us and left us pieces and memories in their absence.

We must walk forward without them, star.

I know, we have to be strong, we must smile at their contributions and continue on our path of greatness without them.
But what of them? Do they ponder and experience the loss as we do?
Ought they?

Let's move on without them, star. It's time to celebrate... you've found your love.

Yes...my love soothes the pain...
thank you..

16, My love

Prose.
Here is my voice...
I get married in less than 2 months.
Me.
*I* get married.
To my star. my very own star.

I thought if I said it a few times I would finally believe it. Still can't.
I am in disbelief at this love.
This love that surrounds, that comforts, that soothes, that smiles.
This love that holds, that watches, that cares, that gives.
This love that forgives, that extends, that welcomes, that believes.

This love that believes.
In me.

What kind of love is this?
This love....this love that redefines unconditional.
This love that creates new meaning for soulmate.

This love that breathes.
That lets me breathe...
as I take in this love that lifts and shares....this love that teaches...that guides...that strengthens...

I feel like...maybe I can be his star too. I can be his love. His care, his hope, his ambition. His inspiration, his support, his smile. Oh how much I value and cherish...this love.

How much I value you, love.

My darling...let a day never pass where I am no longer in disbelief...

Sigh. My very own star. Who would have thought?

silenced

you're very quiet today.


too quiet.


is everything okay?

pyaar

"you're my superstar.
you burn bright within me, you illuminate my soul, you warm my heart, you make me shine...
it's you, love.

...it's you that is so vibrant."

The Grace

"Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground."
Rumi

Seeking to be closer to You soon...this remains her lifegoal, her pursuit, her passion... As she walks this journey she gathers signs and reminders of You...how blessed is she...

fascinate me

you make the colours come alive

The birds sing

So if we get there
you take away the pain

the valley of love
the wind knows

when together...
what it feels like

no longer fragile
no longer scarred

the fear dissipates..
oh the places we could go
