It is my daily prayer and ardent endeavor as a volunteer teacher assistant,
to help at least one child each day, tear down walls of trepidation, and discover, that there is absolutely nothing, no nothing, if they are willing and believing, that they cannot ultimately learn.

Everything under the sun can be justified. But it's only the truth that brings healing and restoration. If only we spent half as much energy in the pursuit of truth as we do in these fights to have it our way.
Sad truth is.. when you really know someone intimately, their thoughts, their deepest desires, who they are when no one is looking... Loving them is difficult. Our phones reflect our true identities. And that is why these days a relationship/marriage can end just by checking his/her phone
Take care of yourself and your family, these people you kill yourself trying to impress are not even bothered. Insecurity is a cancer.

Excerpt from Sabali.

When the rewards are just
around the corner.
By Zyrool
Even in snow, romantic hearts glow, whatever the weather it’s glorious being together.

Always some regrets, curiosities...always wondering, if only slightly, of road not traveled...life is really too short -- our nature to want to wander where we wonder.
Of All The Outcasts, Misfits, & Unsung Heroes… we made it.
Everybody’s the truth according to their own lies. Everyone is the realest one in their own eyes.

Every read makes me rise, Every read makes me wise.
The fact remains, you are the book which I read n revise.
You are the book, I read every day. Some times flipping through I read your moves and gestures. Some times rereads allow me to dive and decipher. Not everybody carries the ability to see all the bands emitting out of a prism named body.
Not every body carries the capability to read the prints provided by ever chirping senses. May I react or gaze through to store, depends upon my strategic core. Just one thing for you to know, I stack every book in the memory of my library.
Churches are bird feeders
and bird feeders are no good
without birds.

Remember, even if you find yourself alone, know that within you lies the strength to endure. You're not alone in your journey, and brighter days are still ahead. Stay strong and keep believing in yourself.

.......all we need is a whole hearted desire and sincerity in deeds. The difficult life isn't that difficult!
It's only when we start walking, we realise that journey is indeed more beautiful than what we seek as destination. The fact is that, when it rains, vibrant umbrellas come to rescue. When we slip, holding hands clutch sturdy. When we rise, the fireflies surround to make the win a legacy....... It's all in the journey.
I am glad, I am blessed.... I am walking. I am glad, I am blessed..... Angels surround me.

Rest now ye praying Mamas who can no longer discipline thy grown children; for thy God hath a big stick!
Tujhko Pane ki Koshish Mai Yu Bheed mein
Kho Sa Gya tha Mai
Na Tujhko dekh saka
Na tujhko Paa Saka mei
Na khudko Dhundh saka

Tujhko Pane ki Koshish Mai Aisa Khoosa Gya mein

Most of the parameters that we set, are formed with a duality from end to end, such as, black & white, right & wrong, good & evil, strong & weak, or receive & send.
