"Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer. "

Death and Impermanence
Death is
inevitable, it occurs to all, one or the other way. No one can escape death;
everyone will have to pass through it. And one should always be aware and
prepared to face it.
It is always reminded to us in everything we do, for
example, if we twist our ankle and fall, this is telling us to remind our self
of death, a sign showing that death can happen in anyways.
Sufferings are caused by desires, attachments, ill thinking,
etc. So one should try to avoid all these things with time so that at the time
of departing from one’s body only the positive environment will float rather
than negative.
It is hard but one can overcome it, it will take a lot of
time indeed but one should have patience, path to nirvana is always not so
easy. One should suffer but can succeed.
Actually if we think deeply, everything is just temporary, tong pa ne, even our body. At the time
of death, we have to leave our body behind.
Nothing remains till the end. Impermanence
is what that is called.
So get reminded of our self about death and impermanence
always, everyday and feel the difference in oneself, that changing attitude of
oneself. It feels great.
All The Best!

Mother.
Waiting for your call, and as if you know am missing you, my
phone rings out with the song “Dear Mom” by S.N.S.D with your name which brings a smile
that is unusual, the every time I think of you.
Hearing your voice...lovely and soft, makes me feel like am
near you, listening to you, though less because I talk more, it is kind a relaxing,
thank you mother.
Remembering those wonderful days, going out for a drive,
chatting for hours, teasing one another, cooking, drinking
together...makes me happy and smile all the time, thanks to you.
Thank you for all the love, care and everything.
I admire you, a single mother who raised three children all
by herself, taking responsibility of both father and a mother, without letting us
feel the absence of our father .
We adore you, you are such a wonderful lady with a soft
heart, thank you for letting us have what we ever wanted and full filling our
desires.
I have never seen a courageous woman like you,
it’s just so amazing to have a mother like you.
You are amazing and I am very lucky to be born as your
daughter...am proud of you mom, am really proud of you...hats off to you.
And today also while I was remembering you, writing this, my phone just rang with your name and this is really awesome...the most wonderful feeling ever, I love you mom.
Happy Mother's Day.
