What is love?

 What is love?


Love is an ocean; vast and limitless

It has no borders, it has no outline

 It is full of life, it is full of sustainability,

 It is bottomless and has infinite levels

On the surface, It looks appealing, calm, and glorious

Its waves, swaying gracefully and pleasingly

 

Dip your finger in it and you will enjoy the chill tingle

 Dip your hand and you’ll love the way it flows

 It is the void, it is the missing piece

That your unsolved puzzle of a heart needs

 To complete the perfect picture

 

 Go a little bit into the waters

 And you will find it pulling you gently and deceivingly

By its smooth tides

 

A whole adventure lies cruising ahead

Gentle breezes, flowing above, touching the waters

The waters jumping in a rhythm as an elegant ballerina

 

You are the captain, your partner is the ship

Everything is perfect and in control,

When there is harmony between the captain and the ship

But don’t relax for long for strong winds are a part of the journey

It is how you battle the storm,

That determines how worthy you are to be called

A good captain or a fine ship

A calm in the storm always helps

In this voyage, you can’t make it to the end

If you were to give your 50% and expect

The sea that carries you to give the other half

You’ve got to give your entire 100 percentage

To the very last minute

The experience you have,

The joy, sorrow, and memories you share,

And the security you feel makes everything feel complete

 

Doubts are a danger to the journey

The ship has to trust the captain and the captain has to trust the ship

Looking at hindrances and opportunities,

It is important to stay positive, that is the only way forward

Perceiving things in the right way makes all the right difference

 

A person at the sea longs to catch sight of land

And a person on land longs to be at the ocean

Switching ships isn’t a wise decision here.

You might pass by several ships

They might have different features

What you should always remember is that

The captain is only for one ship and the ship is for only one captain

The ship trains the captain and likewise the captain

When the ocean is understood the journey can be mastered.

 

The thing about the ocean is

 If you dip so much as a pinkie into it

 You may well find out that something reaches out

 And drags you into its depths

 

Only a few make it to the shore

Life after being in the ocean it’s not the same anymore

It leaves a memory no one can steal or a heartache no one can heal.

The Biography of Eternal—the Tree Who Gave.

The Biography of Eternal—the Tree Who Gave. 1998, November 23 Today is my birthday. The earth feels damp, and a soft drizzle kisses my skin. I poke out of the soil—a fragile sprout. Everything is new and far too bright. A jolly cricket hops nearby, whistling cheerfully. I smile without knowing why. I don’t know who I am yet. Just a tiny green stick. My arms—leaves, I suppose—flutter when the wind passes. I am alone, but it doesn't feel lonely. The air smells of possibilities. 1999, March 14 Spring wakes me up. The frost that once numbed my sap is gone. I stretch upward, my first tiny branch growing proud. A butterfly lands on me today. Her wings were the colour of sun and flame. I think I fell in love for a moment. Is that possible? To fall in love with something you know you’ll never see again? 1999, September 2 A little girl comes running through the grass today. She’s barefoot, laughing, chasing dragonflies. Her name is Angel—I hear her mother call for her. She not...

A Sunday Morning

  A Sunday Morning   A sweet fragrance of fellowship in the air Friends holding hands in worship Swaying to the music, praising God Families together in one accord Students gathered in one mind A lovely band with meaningful songs The pastor speaking on the greatest miracle   A once fervent follower of the bible Who for the past few years Spent my time at church checking On my phone every 5 minutes.   After a really long time Listening to god speaking through people. God’s presence is real It can be felt when, Your mind is open, heart is clear, And your spirit is ready to listen. “Speak Lord for your servant is listening”   For long, I swayed to the tune of the world Sometimes the waves were high, lighting me Other times the earth swallowed me And I was left among the rubbles. No order, discipline or purpose for long   With God, his leading and guidance, The disturbed troubled water is perfectly sti...
