MySpace Codes!
It's been a while since i posted here. What made me come out of this sabbatical was just a quiet observation. Read on:
i was on my way back the other day and there was a marriage procession on the street with a music band playing and a few people dancing in a group while the rest were walking alongside. What caught my eye (and heart) was not this. There were a few hutments alongside the road and i was amazed to see the children of slum dwellers also dancing to the tunes, laughing and enjoying. They lived in shanty homes, could barely manage to fill their stomach (with food they would not have choice of) had old clothes and unkempt hair. Yet they taught me to LIVE IN THIS MOMENT and not worry about the past or future. They taught me that happiness is but a state of mind which you can enter at any time provided you want it. You don't have to depend on your circumstances to be happy. Well can i say that those children are more SPIRITUAL then us. I might not be able to do justice to what i actually felt but in a few words, I WAS HUMBLED.
The one thing that i can learn is to keep this picture in my heart and refer to it whenever i get disappointed, disheartened, saddened or unhappy. For you all, i am sure there are certainly some "pictures" you have come across in life, some worthwhile holding on to.
