A Mystery Called Life





Life is full of mysteries. No amount of preparedness and planning can unlock its secrets.  Sometimes we tend to underestimate the value of our life until it backfires on us... and that will be the only time we will appreciate its worth.

My life is a never ending trail of stress and problems brought about by the nature of my work, my ventures, and by the people whom I love but stresses me out. I usually start my day early and end it very late. Sleep for me was a luxury and rest was just a dream. Weekend is not the end of my week but it is always the beginning of it. Time was never my best companion because it never stays besides me.  Life for me is a struggle; I live life not to enjoy it but to endure it. 

My existence in this universe and how I see it was sculpted by the norms dictated by our materialistic society and not by the calling of my internal being. Most of the time, I traveled a path known to many but stranger to my passion. As a result, I landed in a world that is not intended for me. I end up settling in a world created and designed by others. I was left living a life that I cannot call my own, a life that I cannot appreciate, and a life that is driven by competition, rules, and beliefs of others.  For me, life was a game that I need to play in order to survive and I must win it to be considered successful. But that philosophy changed when an accident crashed into my life. In the blink of an eye, my life shifted to a different direction. It was an accident that was meant to be. 

To be continued.

Dad, you are the best father ever

When I was young you taught me how to read and rhyme, And showed me laughter under the smiling sunshine. I remember that day when I stumbled with pain But you carried me in you arms and the pain was gone. You taught me the meaning of respect, to other beings and to thyself You modeled these traits not only in thy words but by actions on oneself You taught me responsibility to thy spouse and to our dynasty You modeled these through thy affection to my mother and members of our family The greatest kings have conquered the strongest nation But believe me; no king is greater than your affection. As you leave this world we know But the love you’ve showed in my heart entombed Today I may be sad because you said goodbye For the angels in heaven took your soul up in the sky If mothers are the best, fathers are the greatest. Thank you for your fatherly love, it was the best. . Image Source: Wikipedia
