Breakwaters Sound

The temptation to build walls at sea to protect beaches to be eroded seems to be a perfect plan.
However, can one really breaks water from its natural course? The sound of the waves crashing onto the walls are a good reminder that the force is still there and this is only a temporary solution.

It is not that different from trying to build a shell around oneself to deal with difficult emotions. The sounds of words outside the shell can easily break in and tear apart the walls we have constructed. Before we know it, we are consumed and annihilate from the inside out.

What to do?

Plant some seeds of wonder. Water them with your emotions. They may grow into trees so you can keep yourself grounded. Soon, there will be a forest, the bird will come, admire the chef d'oeuvre and sing altogether the tales of the one who stopped fighting water.

Refused to jump on the horseback

I spent the weekend with a good friend of mine. She introduced me to her community of church goers. I was impressed by how committed and big this community is. They try to lift each other through the spoken words of the bible. As I entered the community, I created curiosity, interest as much as opportunity. Questions followed: ''Are you going to Church'' Which church are you going to'' ''Are you a Christian'' Do you believe in God''  Then I answered it: No, No, No, Yes They reacted - looking down, disappointed, sad of my misfortune: ''if you don't follow jump in, you will probably go to hell when you die''. I thought: I don't know the horse, neither who tamed it. I ain't jumping on his back... hell and heaven can be created on earth... for what happen after death I am not sure.

Sorrow Cycle - Love is here to stay

If you find yourself going through another cycle of sorrow and grieving, there is a song that may help you.  ''Love is here to stay'', the music was written by  George Gershwin  with lyrics by  Ira Gershwin .  Ira Gershwin wrote the words after George's death as a tribute to his brother’s passing. The song resonates with me as I find myself missing a person I love dearly. It puts forward that whatever changes, love is here to stay. The memory of love received, the love that still remains that you receive each day, the love that you give, the love that you feel, the love that is still there to welcome within your life. It will always be there regardless of the earthquake, tsunamis, illnesses and sadness. No point closing yourself from it by fear of losing it again, embrace it and live fully.
He was crowned. He could not look behind him neither look forward. He kept looking on a side for more or to see where others were at. So he could put more jewels on his hat. If he could only see the monster feeding on its ambitions. If he could only look at me and see the bird showing us a path to paradise. He could realise i have a flower ready to bloom, it only needs the  sunshine of its gaze for it to blossom. xxx-ooo
