Second Chances...


To give or not to give
a second chance
is the question
Sometimes sweet memories
get stirred up
with dark clouds
and we try to push away
from everything

Yet the memories of the past
never die
no matter how rusted
it all looks
we'd always wish to see
the shine that it used to have

This is when we are left
with the choice to give
a second chance
to somebody, some day
and even be willing
to hide the darkest memories
with the longingness
to feel the joy
of a past sweet memory

Yet the fear of betrayal
clouds our mind
from time to time
but the hope of light
stirs up strongly
wanting to feel the warmth
of pleasant memories,
a new beginning...

That Million Dollar Gift In You...

   Don't we all have that million dollar gift in us, that most of us take for granted? A gift that we ignore so much and not care about the massive value of it.
   Yes, its our 'Smile'... It's that million dollar gift that costs us nothing, but just lights up our face and brightens up everyone around us. I sometimes wonder why people really hesitate to use this gift. Well, smiling too much might drive into misunderstandings at times, but really.. a little smile, making a tiny curve on the lips is definitely not going to be a crime I'd rather say.
   Sometimes I don't think we really need a reason to smile to another human being at the beginning of a day. Everyone is rushing around in streets and at offices at the beginning of each day and I'm sure most of us look forward to see pleasant and cheerful faces, just to brighten up our morning and soak ourselves in a cheerful spirit throughout the day.
Everyone is looking for a great start for their day or may be just to forget about all the frustrations they have and just move on. A good smile from someone may mean a million dollars to a person.. You may never know! I mean after all, it really doesn't cost a cent to use this fantastic gift that we are all gifted with. Not to mention the remarkable health and personal benefits that smiling can bestow upon you in return. So start using that million dollar gift in you.. It's never too late :)

Ready to take off ...

This amazing insect was found on a small branch of green leaves, camaflaged to a great extent, that it was almost so hard to spot it until it flew away from the branch.
And displayed above is a picture of the butterfly type insect trying to get ready to take off into the air..
