Dream Maker

*I was here early morning..... greeting my friends..... then God led me to read a beautiful post by Ms. Debra El-Ramey...


Debra,
Thank you so much.... 
it has touched me in more ways than one...

and as much as my wish didn't come true, I'd like him to hear this...

___________________________________

Just before the day ends, I'd like you to know that....

Here I was listening to an old familiar tune you used to play when we were kids...


Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see. 
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

I remember how you used to get angry whenever we distract you by our noise while you were at the piano... 

I've always known you for your "quick temper"... 


I don't know why, but these past few weeks, you've been displaying your tender side...

 I forgot how it felt to be cuddled by you... 

melissa 

It seemed a long time ago... 

but somehow, reaching deep down there, 

I knew how it felt like to be loved by you...

I forgive you.

    as i said the other day that its always gud n blissful for us to forgive n forget...

    and recapturing old memories is always like a grammar lesson: you find the present tense, but the past perfect!!!

    Best wishes,
    irfan.

    i want to snuggle under your thoughts
    i want to cuddle in your lingering dots
    if i am not mistaken, it's all an
    innocuous dream, so i let down my thoughts
    to your flowing stream, i FORGIVE and FORGET
    i am a susceptible to the past, let future
    be an INVOLUNTARY BEAM.

Soul Friends

Linking into the 'Blogging and Friends' blog hop at Bongo Is Me and  Living with Food Allergies and Celiac Disease . I met with some friends this day. We've known each other since we were ten and somehow even though two of them already reside in the US, we've managed to communicate all throughout these years. Our traditional lunch at Abe (from L-R: Hazel, Ella, Me, Hazel's parents) 5 May 2012 Sto. Domingo (5 May 2012) Then I went on a date with my childhood friend. I have not visited Him for a while and I longed to see Him (He was waiting for me ). I came home and spent time with my friends online... It was while reading Bonnie's post that I became reminiscent of how my life started in the blogging world. It was January last year when my ARTner and friend for two years in Tagged asked me if I was interested to publish my ideas. I read Fher's blog but made comments on my online journal for discussion. I was a bit hesi...

ţlīthā qūm

  ţlīthā qūm Mark 5, 41 NIV I wonder how He said it... Was it similar to a song?... a soft whisper...  la Sua voce serena... tranquilla... 'Nowadays, we couldn't distinguish whether one is angry or affectionate ~ the tone with which we say things are the same...' preached the priest last Sunday. ...He  saw her, he called her forward and said to her,  “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.”  Luke 13, 12 NIV There's something in This man... His look... His gaze... His eyes... mi penetra... nel profondo... fino all'anima mia... "He reached out His hand and touched the man. " Matthew 8, 3 NIV ...gently... senza timore... ------- I remember a story recounted by one Peruvian missionary nurse I worked with in North Africa. She was assigned to prepare a teenager for his first communion. He not only looked younger but he was quite smaller than his age. He was all curled up because of an unknown disease. His whole body...

Of Cups and Dreams

Image
I scooped up TWO EMPTY CUPS before leaving that Sacred place... and whispered something to two Franciscan priests... I woke up and reached playfully inside my pocket to see if I brought them home with me then I wrote Lisa Marie Farfalla about this dream. Empty...cups... It was the night before the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The next day, Corinne Rodrigues wrote  Half Empty or Half Full?  . On the 21st, Savira Gupta wrote something about emptiness:  "Emptiness or a feeling of void is a phase or a moment of pause. A time to observe, understand and digest what I have experienced. It is when I am nudged into looking or deciphering what is meaningful and what needs to be discarded. A time to ponder or be with myself....No judgments or labeling....  Making space for what is about to come" Yesterday, I came across Andy David 's  This Cup of Mine  . Symbols, colors, numbers, dreams ~ Each of us had CUP in mind...  A CUP ...
