Living with Addiction

Addiction is like a guest

It visits once

Then chooses to stay

It doesn't belong here

But the body is too weak to fight

It is ruining relationships 

It cannot be stopped 

It is embraced

As a way of life

Until the damage is done

The couple remains apart

As much as she longs for him to take her back

He loves his freedom 

No stench of alcohol

No fainting spells around

Who knows what the future holds 

Will the guest remain permanent

Or a compromise must be met

It takes a miracle

To be rid of addiction.

Feeling Trapped

Feeling trapped is a true feeling

It's like being in a situation 

It could be a relationship 

A feeling that makes you feel stuck

For certain reasons beyond your control

A feeling that does not promote progress

There is nowhere to run to

And nowhere to hide

Stuck in the relationship

Stuck in the habits

And life goes by

Without a reason

Changes need to be made

But you don't see a way out

Until you accept the situation

The trapped life

Becomes your new life.

Downplaying Success

Success no matter how big

No matter how small

Remains Success

Ungratefulness is downplaying Success

It could be your success

It could be another person's

Success is success 

The attitude of gratitude plays a huge role

Since other people would like to be in your shoes

Every success is a blessing

Success should never be downplayed

Success should be embraced

Is it ever Enough?

Bills paid

Bank account ok

Fridge stuffed

But there is a nagging need

It lurks around the mind

Until thoughts of more arise

More clothes

More shoes

More accessories

When is it ever enough?

Will it ever be enough?

Love is Natural Friendship

"Love is Friendship set on Fire"

                                 ~Anonymous

For two people to become friends, it must take a special kind of love. Things unseen just naturally attract them together; they feel free and comfortable with one another.

Love is such natural friendship that it is the souls that bond first before the physical body does. This has nothing to do with what they have in common but with one purpose, they tend to be on the same path or journey.

Friends are precious and should be protected closely.

Light Up

"DON'T YOU KNOW YET?

IT IS YOUR LIGHT THAT LIGHTS THE WORLDS."

                                                                            -Rumi 

 

We often live normal lives; lives that looks like the days are not moving, time is passing slowly and everything just seems a bore. We cannot keep complaining or nagging about our lives if we are doing nothing about it.

The first step to making a change happen is to accept where we are presently and look onward to the place we want to be. The next step is actually making a decision to achieve where we want to be. Take a trip, move to another city, make that phone call, write that letter, take up that job, whatever it is that would make your light shine to ignite the light in others; do it and do it now.

Life is short and there are rarely second chances.

Friendship

It begins with you
Then others come in

The way you love yourself
Makes room for others

One way or the other
You open the door for friendship

Life is short
Friendships lasts forever

You would know
If you are friends with yourself
