To All the Storms in My Life

Thanks to all the STORMS that raged in my life to transform me into a person that Iam today. The turbulence and difficult times of life either make a person or break him/her ,and those are the factors which chisel, shape and etch ourselves into our own unique character.

These moments or phases of life when one tends to get lost in the melee of confusion or loses one's confidence actually are elements of change. The unexpected change is hard to accept making it more harder for us to sustain and so instead of facing and accepting we tend to break down .

As known and said, " Change is always for the better, else there would be no growth in life"

Life is never a smooth sail and so there are challenges that come in our journey, once we decide to walk independently.

The poem below speaks of those hours and times which break us and we on the edge reinstate ourselves with courage becoming stronger and determined to come out of the odds in flying colours.

with storms and lightening of skies,

I watched the rage from behind

awaiting for the dance of hurricane to subside.

Oh! But the endless beats continued

while I gazed at the black to turn clear blue...

Mustering courage in heart and faith tightly clasped

I sprinkled seeds of hope and patience

on the destined path

Wading through the noise , piercing the tumultuous

gazebo of thoughts

scribbling the mightier pen on an empty wet canvas

The spilled ink emerged

like an extraordinary mural

While the storm ended and stopped "
