It's a beautiful life
Princess September | 29 May 2008, 3:35pmIt’s a beautiful life ….
Life. What a pretty four letter word, with a dot in the small letter ‘i’ that’s like a tiny soap bubble, a capital ‘L’ with a curl at its top and a yawn at its bottom. Just when several sequential disasters happen do you realize that amidst all the disasters, the tears shed, the angry words, the struggle for peace and calm, for solitude and friends, the search for a silver lining – hey! you’re right in the middle of it and you don’t want to miss it – life, of course. If you stumble and you fall and you missed the relish of it all, you’ve missed life.
Stumble really hard so you can bounce back.
A few of my favourite things. A pen that writes with smooth curls in every letter. The aromas that float in from all the neighbour’s kitchen. The pigeon that fluttered in through the window, assuming I wasn’t home. It danced on the clothes, the table top before realizing it has got company and made a hurried exit. The chubby dog that walks disinterestedly along side it’s man servant as his master has no time to take him for a run. My giggle. All my friends. The sweet ones, the tough ones, the moody ones, the child like ones, the grown up ones. The multitude of songs that echo in my heart, the beat in my feet, the spirit that rises every time it’s hit a rocky patch. If only this wonderful feeling can be treasured in a box, cloned and sold, for a glimpse of joy and love for life.
Current Mood: Always alive!
