hmm...

Hmm... As mom's hands brushed the hair off my cold forehead that night, the warmth from her fingers made me feel like a 2 year old being put to bed after a good meal. A tiny smirk was my only reaction as that beautiful lullaby spread through the room,the dark windy night didn't seem scary no longer. Then it came. Something that I didn't expect,and something that she didn't notice. A glittering tear drop caressed my cheek. The smile remained,the song ended. I didn't sleep for a long time that night,the reason was obvious. I felt like a toddler after ages. A small headache of mine had brought about this uncontrollable urge in my mom's heart to take care of me.Was a special moment.
Mom's are surely small bundles of never ending happiness. That special care and the way they show it,well thats what makes life worth living.
Its really funny how our lives get affected by so many people,so far yet so near.We wonder and worry about things that happen at some unimaginably distant places but forget to show our concern about things that are happening in front of our eyes.
I am not that type of a person who believes in fate,and if given a chance I'd like to lead ma life my way....but it is so uncertain. Why is it that we are unable to even know how OUR lives are gonna be?
well...maybe the only thing certain about life is the uncertainty after all ....
We try to do so much to be happy. We help some people we don't know. We donate. We pray. All this for those who don't even have the slightest clue about our existence. Surely a Very funny creation-MAN!


There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
