TEARS
Posted in My Emotions on 08/06/2009 08:39 pm by Sensible Woman
The new land is beautiful and colorful
My heart gets hurt whenever my eyes get a glimpse
At times I don’t have the control
I thought of moving to a new land
Wow! New land is amazing
All are unique at times tales are touching
Sensible thoughts and wise people
Family values and most incredible people
New land is encouraging and meeting all my needs
Thoughts and inner feelings are valued
People motivate, appreciate and have lots of fun
Thought for a while …
Perfect place to build my shelter there
So started building my home step by step
It’s not right to forget the old
I lost something…
Did you know where I loose?
Are you asking me what I’ve lost?
Oh! That’s so precious to my heart
I lost it, I lost it!
No Silk or Satin but Fleece and Flannel
Tall but not an Oak Tree
Wise but not King Solomon
I lost it, I lost it!
I lost a loving, caring heart
I lost a moment that would have changed my life
I lost the most precious one!
No one can bring that heart to me
So, I surrender the precious one to God’s hands humbly
If the lost one is for me, the heart will come back
As I wait Patiently….
From my childhood I am seeing and learning what life is all about…
Have you ever been humiliated by someone when you were small?
Have you ever worn torn uniform and rubber sandals to the school when you were small?
Have you ever waited in a long queue to get kerosene and rice with your mom when you were small?
Have you ever lived in a house that was leaking during the rainy seasons?
Have you ever slept lonely after the school outside your door when you were small?
(My parents are teachers and they come home very late after work. Until that time, I used to sleep in the steps outside our house. One fine day unconsciously I fell from the stairs when I was asleep, my head got injured. I think this incident happened when I was studying second or third standard. That scar on my forehead is still visible.)
Have you ever lived without proper food for one whole month with your family?
(Eating just the porridge and lemon pickle)
Have you ever heard your parents saying that they couldn’t afford money for your higher studies?
( My aim was to become a doctor, when my dad said that he could not afford money for my higher studies due to financial crisis, I was completely collapsed)
Have you ever been in the hospital fighting for your life?
When I see anyone looking sad, I would immediately go and talk to that person.
When I see someone in need, I would give my money.
Now, I don’t wear any torn clothes but I know the value of clothing. I took one blue color salwaar in 2001 and I am still wearing that (2009).
Now, I can eat what I want.
Now, I live in our own house.
I have completed my MCA. Now, I have a decent job.
There were times just because I am dark
People looked down on me
There were times when I heard a few people say 'Blacky'
Made fun of me in the public places
I tried to control all my emotions
When I reached home and saw my face in the mirror
All I could see tears rolling over my face
Like a mini waterfall
There were times when I didn't get the proper treatment
Unlike every other girls
There were times when I longed to be a part of fair girls
companionship
I was not bold enough to talk to them
Because of my complexion and fear of rejection
There were times when I haven't looked my face in the mirror
for ages
For those reasons
Was it my fault being like that?
I asked God, 'Why ME?'
Days passed,
Months passed,
And Years passed'
There were times when no one besides me
To hold my hand and utter those loving words 'Everything is
going to be OKAY'
There were times when I took my resume after completing my
college
Walking every streets and every roads with my friend
Like a lover searching for the lost love
Like a bird searching for the prey
Hoping to be a part of the 'IT World'
Looking for software companies
To give my resumes and
Most of the times I end up leaving it with security people
or Receptionists
There were times even after I cleared all my interviews
Though I know that I had done my best
They just had to say, 'We'll call you back'
Oh! That broke my heart into pieces
I asked God, 'Why ME?'
There were times I hide myself in the church on Sundays
Because of those looks on the people's eyes
Because of that one question 'What are you doing now?'
There were times I hide myself in my room
When my relatives came home to give the wedding cards
Because of that one question 'What is she doing now?'
The reason was unemployment
There was a time one relative of mine
Asked my dad in the wedding reception, 'What's your daughter
doing?'
My dad said, 'She is searching for a job'
He said, Strange! 'Is it that tough to get a job for
Rs.1000/-?'
Dad just smiled at him and didn't say a word
He shared it with us
I know how tough it was to get a job those days
That was one of the worst nights in my lifetime
I went to my room and started weeping
Like a child hungry for mother's milk
I wept, I wept & I wept
I couldn't control
Oh! I was crying badly
I couldn't control I took my pillow
And thrust in my mouth
Thinking no one would hear my cry
I started crying aloud until my parents broke into my room
I went to the height of depression
My heart was aching for the first time
I lost my mind completely
Slowly my vision blurred
I know I was dying
My mom put me in her lap
Crying aloud, 'God save my daughter'
I fainted
Mom sprinkled water on my face
After few minutes my senses came back
I asked God, 'Why ME?'
Days passed,
Months passed,
And Years passed too'.
God answered my prayers
After all the struggles in my life
Oh! What a joyful moment!
Got a job after 2 long years of waiting
Brought sweets home
Worked really hard on all projects
Made lots of sales over the phone
From mobile phones to credit cards to US customers
Got good name in the management
Switched to another company
Worked hard and got
Impressive feedback from US customers
and from the client
Earned incentives
Suddenly I was hospitalized
Miraculously I got a decent job
After
Hello God,
I know you are busy in the heaven talking to angels, saints, martyrs and other believers.
Can you please listen to me? I am calling from the earth.
This is very important for me.
I am little bit upset today. Lord give me the hope and joy. Who else can I share my feelings?
Do not forsake me forever. Please lead me now. I want to talk to you lots tonight. Lets meet up in my room. Please do say that ” I Love you & You are Mine!”. I don’t hurt other people even in my thinking. You know it all. Please stay with me God. That’s all I want in my life. Let your guardian angels protect me. Amen!
I am feeling much better God - Thanks a lot My Dear Friend! : )
