Stepping Ahead!!


Wrapped in a soft cloth with eyes open wide , when God had just whispered life into me and I was an epitome of innocence as much as can be, when the soft sound of Azan entered my ears, I knew for sure that I had arrived where I was meant to be .
The world, a place that would witness my deeds for life and God would keep an eye on me for sure....
"I'll be watching over you!" were the last words I heard on my way to the world of mortals.
As I was pushed down from the heavens, I let out a cry and on opening my eyes found myself upside down, hanging from the hands of the woman whom I'm sure had something to do with my tears. She handed me over to my mother, who I had been told was a door to heaven, and yes she was, coz it was for the first time, in her hands, that I was introduced to the feeling of love, in its purest form...Life seemed beautiful and the road ahead a little bleak but steady, coz I was sure that she would help me learn to walk on the right path.
Today I am at a point of time in my life when I can see the road ahead quite clearly ...Hopefully I would start a new phase in my life and a new life would toddle ahead, when my journey would seize....
Life cannot be measured with the number of days you've lived but by the number of moments that have painted it better and have made it look nice!
Today as I step into another year of my life, my treasure chest full of memories looks happy and bright :)

Good morning Sana:)

I was thrilled to see your comments in my post. I just now posted it and in the twinkling of an eye your comment was there.Amazing:)

I was having hectic days during the last few days. Today I felt happy and I thought of doing a post.Perhaps my happy mood made me post a SUN RISE for a change.

Your post is interesting and has a great meaning embedded in it. Very rarely we think of our soucrce, our beginning,from where we came from. That reminds me your blog name is A NEW BEGINNING. This post of yours clearly matches your blog name.

A new beginning iw what you have beautifully described.We come from God and to God we have to return. Our mothers are guardian angels in physical form to look after us and protect us till we are big enought to take care of ourselves.The sacrifices they make, the troubles they take, the time they invest in looking after us is something unbleivable and cannot be imaginged. Their devotion to their children is something which cannot be exlained.It is something very unique and to be admired.

I am totally awe struck at the way you have explained the process of our birth, our transition form the world of God to this mundane world, from a state of everlsting bliss to a state where we have to face joys and sorrows, happiness and sufferings,satisfaction and dissatisfaction,trials and tribulations,a need to achive, perform,establish a name, a reputation and finally leave everthing behind and go back to our Creator to give an account of what we did on this earth and to be judged of our doings and misdoings.

Your lovely post made me ponder ove my existence in this world, the purpose for which I came here, to think WHO I AM, WHAT I AM, WHERE HAVE I COME FROM, WHAT I AM DOING HERE, WHERE WILL I GO FROM HERE and so on.

Have a fantastic day Sana:)
Joseph

Indeed, life cannot be measured with the number of years. It can be measured with the life in those years, that is, the moments in which we lived a lifetime.
Thanks for sharing such an inspiring post.
