Beyond Amputation



It feels like its over


Trembling mountains


And I’m the defeated rubble


Given no chance for climbing


The peek that I stood so high


Seemed just a tale of what I was


So what remains of amputated legs?


A will spirit to stand


But standing remains impossible


I begin once over crawling for life


Copyrignt 2011 Nasra Al Adawi



The gift of willpower sparks

poignant poem, Nasra...I don't subscribe to the idea that life a game of success or failure...but such feelings are seen as phases where we confront the fullness of life...and its good to have because that makes us alive as well, i think,


wishes,
devika

Devika has a point there my friend
Just imagine that you are responsible for everything that has happened to you up to now in your life. That’s part of respond-ability that I’ve talked about so many times. And when you finally decide that you are responsible for your own life – for what has happened in the past – you will find that you get an immense rush of freedom.
You can decide right now what you want, and you are in charge of making it happen.
Those who have self-doubt with no game plan of substance will self-destruct.
Wishing You Well
