The Mysterious Gift!
Life presents us with so many options and yet we forget to choose what we ought to rather we end up picking up the conventional instead of the unknown gift waiting to be picked up.

Words
Unspoken Words are often spoken silently, through unknown ways...those who keep searching for something often receive more than what they are looking because the destination in sight often leads through the most treacherous paths which is sometimes easy and sometimes hard to scale...
...here are a few spoken words worth reading from people who dreamed and did things which made their life.
*
To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight and never stop fighting
~ e e cummings
In three words i can sum up everything I've learned about life.
It goes on.
~ Robert Frost
Ring the bells that still can ring,
Forget your perfect offering,
There is a crack in everything;
That's how the light gets in.
~ Leonard Cohen
May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.
~ Edward Abbey, naturalist and author (1927-1989)
I fell in love – that is the only expression I can think of – at once, and am still at the mercy of words, though sometimes now, knowing a little of their behavior very well, I think I can influence them slightly and have even learned to beat them now and then, which they appear to enjoy.
~ Dylan Thomas, Welsh poet, short-story writer, and playwright, "Poetic Manifesto" in the Texas Quarterly, Winter 1961
A writer is somebody for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.
~Thomas Mann, novelist, Nobel laureate (1875-1955)
The world in general doesn't know what to make of originality; it is startled out of its comfortable habits of thought, and its first reaction is one of anger.
~ W. Somerset Maugham, writer (1874-1965)
In times of profound change, the learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.
~ Al Rogers
Assumptions are the termites of relationships.
~ Henry Winkler, actor (1945- )
Our deeds determine us, as much as we determine our deeds.
~ George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans), novelist (1819-1880)
Either you think - or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you.
~ F. Scott Fitzgerald
There is no remedy so easy as books, which if they do not give cheerfulness, at least restore quiet to the most troubled mind.
~ Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, author (1689-1762)
Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching.
~ Satchel Paige
Fake it till you make it.
~ (Heard on West Wing)

The SUN
We get bored very often when we don't like things but when we like things we never get bored even if it repeats frequently...and one of the few things which have presented themselves in a new way every time one gets to see is the 'SUN'.
Always giving off without taking....transforming itself on Earth depending on the situation, he presents himself in awesome colours, only to enjoy in a never ending joy, which gets filled only to see that it's again empty...
...inspiring the Nature to come alive....raking the brains of the writers to come out with the best, he also listens to the tender clouds which try to shield him when they know that, they are going to hide once they are empty...
and why does the Earth goes mad about the Sun, encircling it all the time...
...it's too complicated to interpret the only Star of the Earth which fills me with joy upto the brim of my heart when i look at him early morning and then makes me hide inside my house till evening when he appears again with a dazzling display of beautiful colours stirring the souls to sit and watch...
It's a part of nature he has partnered with, making the Earth a more pleasant place to be with...
