FINDING MY HEART!
Finding My Heart!
I was conceived in a heartbeat and got delivered through a pulsating life-giving force.
Life, like the rapidly approaching sun-rays heralding a brand-new day... my sun rose up one summer day.
The sun-rays of life approached my sweet mother hours before my water broke.
Her birth pangs like the natural wildfire destroying the whole vegetation ahead the summer breaking into unbelievable green.
I emerged on the other side of labouring pains, tears and cries for life...and so I was born into these shores.
I interrupted my sweet mother for the longest time of her life. Nine months in total.
Without her sacrifice I wouldn’t be talking to you today.
This woman gave me my heartbeat. I owe all my sunshine and my sunset to her.
Now. I have seen, felt and warmed by different smiles a million times over in my life.
Believe me when I say to you...
Nobody could smile as beautiful as my sweet mother.
Her embracing smile remains forever rooted inside my heart and soul.
Dear God. After all these decades... I still miss my mother!
Finding my heart after her passing was the most difficult test any eight year old could ever bear.
My umbilical cord was cut in time, separating me from my life grid... my mother.
Medically speaking, this operation of separating me from my soulmate was declared officially... successful.
Like they say nowadays... Both the mother and the baby are doing well.
Yes true that. All was well as long as I remained patched to my mother’s warm body.
My heart continued to beat in tandem with hers... hearing her voice and seeing her tender smile... kept me in the loop of her sweet love.
Finding my heart felt like a thousand light years away as there was nothing threatening my existence with my mother.
Believe it or not, there’s no human being in this whole world who could match up and rival my mother’s heart.
Finding my heart.
My sweet mother was my life and wrapped all around every beautiful thing I see in nature.
She was my summer, my winter and spring and warmth in my coldest winter nights.
Looking back over my shoulders, I can see the youthful me foolishly casting and throwing my heart away.
Little did I know it will take a lifetime looking and finding it... in all the rough alleys of life.
Finding my heart.
It was the happiest day of my life when I met my future wife. Even in this time of my great transition: I thought finally, I had found my heart.
Somehow, the dangerous curves of life... would have none of that as I got slammed against the fiercest torrents of the unforgiving seas.
I found myself lying breathless at the beach... writhing like a dying fish pulled out and weaned from its watery environment.
Finding my heart.
Only happens when you truly discover and reunite with your long lost heart over the decades.
After all these years of chasing shadows... I can truly say, I have finally found my heart walking right next to me.
Speaking for no one else... these thoughts and words hold true and dear to me in finding my heart.
Like the great Poet Neil Diamond echoed...I am I said.
You don’t have to believe me.>
You need to first discover your heart missing before you go looking for it.
Good luck. You will need it!
