....to be born graced with blessings and lessons ever learning

every year end, the journey travelled be so different, yet, the same.
nuances of past experiences, each time the desire to learn something new, the desire to ensure the path travelled be more worthy than last years path.
never a doubt as to the goal, for it always shines brightly ahead...the optimism of a a future positve
rewarding in the new challenges it holds and knows to give.
life knows its course for there is always a beginning and an end...what we do with a start and where we wish to take it, is ours to choose.
so, to the light to look ...welcome it with a zest for the new year be within arms reach and to speed into it with a zeal that can only know to be rewarding...is the goal.
And some of the lessons learnt along the way...again...nuances of what i have always known
but, nice to remind oneself...it does no harm.
"...i have learnt, that to be independent, able and capable
does not mean i am all knowing
and gives me no right to be arrogant.
i have learnt that people of character
know to be graceful and gracious in their daily living.
i have learnt that money does not define a person
and can be gone in one swoop....but, the person remains.
i have learnt that life is no different today to that of a hundred years ago
for mankind knows not to shed his essence.
i have learnt to be in lust does not mean love
and to be in love
is the best gift ever.
i have learnt that time does not stop for anybody and that those dear to my heart, day in and day out,
cherish me for who i am.
i have learnt that having patience and tolerance and listening,
even to the 'younglings' and elders can only enrich me.
i have learnt to hold my tongue, even when another may be wrong.
i have learnt that compassion and empathy know to drive me
and give me strength
and that the rainbow is always there with its pot of gold.
i have learnt over and over and over again...there is nothing better than life...
i have learnt
i am a blessed individual.
and thus
i thank
whoever it may have been that created me and gave me life.
...Thank u Lord for my birth.
amin..."
