The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth.

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.

YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING

When we first fell in love,
I thought that nothing could compare,
To the magical romance,
That you and I had come to share.
But as time passed,
feelings deepened,
And our closeness grew,
The romance turned into,
A real and lasting love with you.
You care for me in all the ways,
I want and need so much.
I've felt your warmth and tenderness,
With every word and touch.
I know I can depend on you,
For support and honesty,
That patient understanding,
That you always give to me.
There`s a special kind of happiness,
That only love can bring,
And Ive found that happiness with you…,

You are my everything.

TWINS - A PARABLE

Once upon a time, twin boys were conceived.

Weeks passed and the twins developed. As their awareness grew, they laughed for joy: "Isn't it great that we were conceived? Isn't it great to be alive? "

Together the twins explored their worlds. When they found their mother's cord that gave them life, they sang for joy! "How great our mother's love is, that she shares her own life with us!"

As weeks stretched into months, the twins noticed how much each was changing.

"What does it mean?" one asked.

"It means our stay in this world is drawing to an end." said the other.

"But I don't want to go," said one. "I want to stay here always."

"We have no choice," said the other. "But maybe there is life after birth."

"But how can there be?" responded one. "We will shed our life cord and how can life be pos sible without it? Besides, we have seen evidence that others were here before us, and none of them has returned to tell us there is life after birth. No, this is the end. Maybe there is no mother after all."

"But there has to be," protested the other. "How else did we get here? How do we remain alive?"

"Have you ever seen our mother?" said one.

"Maybe she only lives in our minds. Maybe we made her up because the idea made us feel good."

So the last days in the womb were filled with deep questioning and fear.

Finally, the moment of birth arrived. When the twins had passed from their world, they opened their eyes and cried for joy - for what they saw exceeded their fondest dreams.

That is birth ... and that is death.

PHIL COLLINS - IN THE AIR TONIGHT



Millions of spiritual creatures
Walk the earth,
Both when we wake,
And when we sleep.
What if earth and heaven
Be to each other like
More than on earth is thought?
What if you slept?
And what if,
In your sleep,
You dreamed?
And what if,
In your dream,
You went to heaven
And there plucked a beautiful flower?
And what if,
When you awoke,
You had the flower in your hand?
Ah...What then?

(Sorry, from a book I quoted a long time ago and I could not remember the title)

ERIC CLAPTON - TEARS IN HEAVEN



These quotations appended below are from the book of The Joy In Loving - A Guide to Daily Living with Mother Teresa


"FEBRUARY 22

I do not think I have any special qualities. I don't claim anything for the work. It is His work. I am like a little pencil in His hand, that is all. He does the thinking. He does the writing. The pencil has nothing to do with it. The pencil has only to be allowed to be used."

By Mother Teresa - page 92

"JUNE 19

Often you see small and big wires, new and old, cheap and expensive electric cables that are useless, for until the current passes through them there will be no light.

The wires are you and me, the current is God. We have the power to let the current pass through us - to use us - or refuse to be used and allow darkness to spread."

By Mother Teresa - page 219
