Missing you

There's a void in my heart
created by your indifference
there's an emptiness in my life
you refused to fill up
There"s a numbness in my mind.

You alone could sensitize
There's a pain in my emotions
Brought by all your memories
your laughter, Your eyes, Your kisses........

You'er a sweet talker,
I was happy for a while
I was gullible

The hurt is endless now But still........
I miss the friendship and more
than that the Love....

My God what happened to WE.........

Death

Death is defined as the end of life..

But is it really the end ? Science does not know for certine, but many of us think we know through our various faiths. The end of life has fascinated mankind since the dawn of time. It's hard to face the unknown, and many people feel that religion rose from fear, a way to cope with it, and to feel better when those we love pass away. I am not saying religions are right or wrong, just that they serve a fundamental purpose... To help us deal with the reality of death.

Animals, plants, every living thing moves in cycles. All are born, live then die. Death is a natural part of existence,even the plants, stars and galaxies pass away. Suns burn out, planets go cold, it seems the cycle of being, spares nothing in the universe.

Since everything seems to have a reason, we must assume that death has a reason. Plants produce various traits to survive, like thorns, or bitter flavors, even poisons to prevent death. Animales abound with natural defenses, from the blow fish that puffs up to look bigger, to the deadly poisonous frogs to prevent being eaten. Why is life so closely guarded if it's inevitable that it will end? The reason may be beyond the reach of science, but it is the very core of spirituality. All of spirituallyis dependant on one fundamental concept, the study and understanding of what happens when we die.

THE EAGLE

This Eagle is flying around and all of a sudden something happenend.He got shot. He was wounded and he fell inside a ditch.A farmer, still trying to get away. Butbeing wounded and very defenseless, the farmer took the Eagle to his farm and put him in the chicken coop with the chickens. So after a period of time,through feeding and through mimicking the actions of the chickens, the Eagle started going through a change. And the Eagle looked around and figured "Well geez, if thats how they feed, I guess that's how I'll have to feed.If that's how they sleep, that's how I'll have to sleep.And if they hang around like that, well I guess I'll have to do the same thing." So there was an identity change, and the Eagle started becoming a chicken.
So this went on for a period of time, and one day a Native guy came along. He was walking down the road and asked the farmer for a drink of water. He looked over in the chicken coop and saw the Eagle acting like a chicken. So he said,"What's that Eagle doing there in the chicken coop?"
The farmer said, "Well, I found it in the ditch, mending it's wing and put him in there. He just just needed to heal up. The Eagle can fly out any time. It's wing is healed. There's no cage over him. There's a fence around to keep the chickens in, but The Eagle doesn't want to go. He just thinks he's a chicken I guess."
So the Native told the farmer that the Eagle was a proud bird and explained that it stood for courage, power, and might. Anyway, the Native guy said, " Can I take the Eagle?"
The farmer said, "You can do what you want to do with it. Take him out of there, it's just one less I have to feed."
So the Native guy took the Eagle, but the Eagle was very docile. He thought he was a chicken. He kept bobbing his head. He had lost his complete identity.
The Native started talking to the Eagle and telling him what the Eagle represents. He said, "You shouldn't be there. You should be flying high in the sky, people looking up at you and seeing you spreading your wings and giving courage." The Eagle didn't have a clue about what he was hearing.
so the Native took the bird to the mountain and said, "I'm going to let you go. I'm going to drop you off here where you can fly and soar." So the Native letthe Eagle go and the Eagle just flooped back down to the Earth just like a chicken. He just stayed on the ground. And the Native went down and picked the Eagle up, brought him back up again and again he explained what he represented and everything else about it. He explained that the Eagle was not a chicken and that he's different from anybody else." You have to know who you are and what you stand for." And he threw him off the mountain, and the same thing happend again. The Native went down and picked him up again and took him back up. He explained again and again and again about it. the Eagle started to flex his wings. His keen eyesight started to return, and the strength in him startedd to come back. So he let the Eagle go again, and this time the Eagle soared with the wind before he fell back down. He was hopping on the ground this time. he was shaking his wings and looking around. Again the Native went down and picked him up and took him to the mountain. Again, he explained who he was and what he represented. when he threw the Eagle off this time, the Eagle flew and soared and everything came back to him, who he was and that he wasn't a chicken. He wasn't like anybody else he was completely different. he gained everthing he'd lost because of where he was placed and put
I guess the bottom line is you have to know who you are, what you stand for, and that you can gain back whatever you've lost through perseverance and understanding. and you've got to have someone that's willing to take the time to share and to care and to teach.

A DREAM WITHIN A DREAM

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
thus much let me avow:
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep-while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream

TIME

Cast your spell upon thy body
of youth ever lasting.

close your eyes and dream of
childhood play that has come and gone.

Cover your ears not to hear the words
to old to play,Open your arms and hug thy age
and wisdom it will follow.

Time will never stop .
