Life is Always a Celebration

(03-26-07)

Each walking stick draws its own
picture in a canvas called life.
Some painted themselves in the brightroad of success,
but most sluggishlystrikes their pen to and fro.

Those that create colorful imagination
reap colorful pictures while those that
draw in tears and pain leave their
sheets wet and stale.

Most pretended to capture the moment
with pretentious glow and harmony but
left their heart tumbling and wading in pain.

The heart never lies though, coz in each of the strokes,
the canvas in itself is crying as the brush and pen
jagged the virgin fiber into pieces.
Life in itself is never a sweet cake,
nor a juicy watermelon in the summer's heat.
It is a flame of anguish from all ends
embraced by our own sacrificial soul.

As each of us clamor for the life of
wrath we now embrace, see through
yourself how enduring your heart is..
Fragile as we are, we could always put
the broken pieces together and start
mending a more patient and stalwart self.

Life is always a celebration, a rebirth from where we fall.
Do not consider how many times you fall but exult
in all the times you were able to rise from where you stumble...

Remember, we have all the blessings we need to survive.
It is only the winners who have the initiative in converting
dark moments of their lives an opportunity to grow.
The looser always find moments of accepting their being frail,
where they regarded their sturdy muscles as rotting logs readyto rest
and allow their interesting and challenging journey to stop..

Life is always a celebration...
Only those walking sticks
that strive to reach the horizon
are capable of saying... I did it!
And that is an enough reason to celebrate.....
