YOU START DYING ... SLOWLY 🍂

Pablo Neruda, Spanish poet,

Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.

His Poem: "You start dying slowly"

You start dying slowly;

if you do not travel,

if you do not read,

If you do not listen to the sounds of life,

If you do not appreciate yourself,

You start dying slowly;

When you kill your self-esteem,

When you do not let others help you,

You start dying slowly;

If you become a slave of your habits,

Walking every day on the same paths,

If you do not change your routine,

If you do not wear different colors,

Or you do not speak to those you don’t know,

You start dying slowly;

If you avoid to feel the passion

And their turbulent emotions;

Those which make your eyes glisten,

And your heartbeat fast,

You start dying slowly;

If you do not risk what is safe for the uncertain,

If you do not go after a dream,

If you do not allow yourself,

At least once in your lifetime,

To run away,

You start dying - Slowly...! 🍂

Glow of the 🧡

How many times we said fake goodbyes but those persons were just more present in our hearts and souls than ever? Didn't we pretend we let go of people and things, yet in our deepness we knew we actually never did? And on the other hand, for how many times we secretly knew our feelings changed towards someone yet we keep doing our best to pretend it didn't, maybe because they are so dear, maybe because of our glorious past but in our deepness we know it's no longer the same, for how many times we let go of things we loved but we keep acting that they are still our choices. And the questions remain does all this mean forever? Will we fall again for what departed us? Will we let go of what enslaved us for so long? Will we say a true goodbye and an honest hello?

Love Watching You 💝

Who can resist a sleeping baby? As our children get older, and we get older the joy we get from watching them sleep is something that doesn’t change. Whether your child is an infant or a teenager, there is great comfort to be found in watching them sleep. No matter what their age, they will always be our babies. There are few things as gratifying and heart-warming as watching your child sleeping peacefully, lost in their own little world of dreams, with no cares or worries. As they sleep safely in a cocoon of warmth and love. Watching our children sleep is one of the greatest rewards of motherhood, and a sign of a job well done. 💝

Who are the real Robbers? 🍂

During a robbery in America, the bank robber shouted to everyone in the bank: "Don't move. The money belongs to the State. Your life belongs to you." Everyone in the bank laid down quietly. This is called the "Mind Changing Concept." Changing the conventional way of thinking. When the bank robbers returned home, the younger robber (MBA-trained) told the older robber (who has only completed Year 6 in primary school): "Big brother, let's count how much we got." The older robber rebutted and said: "You are very stupid. There is so much money it will take a long time to count. Tonight, the TV news will tell us how much we robbed from the bank." This is called "Experience.” Nowadays, the experience is more important than paper qualifications! After the robbers had left, the bank manager told the bank supervisor to call the police quickly. But the supervisor said to him: "Wait! Let us take out $10 million from the bank for ourselves a...
