The Power of Humility

Work has been on for two whole months
Spreading the word and realigning lives
Cared and shared
Loved and cried
Learnt an important lesson of life
Humility is his name
Simplicity is his game
Somestimes the best things in life come in the smallest things

Fourteen year old boy with a mind of five
sprung forth in one day of my life
A day not too long and yet not short
enough to teach me the purpose of life
MY LIFE

Simple things I shared with him
Kicking and focusing on the everyday things
May not seem much to the Average Joe
For him it was a challenge though
He threw a fit and broke into tears
Tested our patience till it worn thin

Times like this, I ask myself
"What must I do to make you learn?"
Remembered Anne with Helen,
How she taught a handicapped girl
To learn, love and experience life
I thought to myself, I could do the same
Love him, care for him and be like him
Then you can understand him!

Relevation came forth on that day because I was humble to learn from him!

Dedicated to Dooodoooyoooo & those who have made a little difference to his life

The Number 12

A Simple Number, an easy line
Twelve means different things to different lives
To some it could be the number of months in a year
To others it could be the time they wait before their bonus
To a few, it could be a celebration of life and to a selected few
A way to remember those who have gone to somewhere better.

It has been almost a year since I have met my old friend,
My inner space where I pen my thoughts
A year I spent travelling around
To see the world, the good and bad

I learn some new and refresh a few
But the number 12 lingers in my heart.
A promise that was made 2 years ago!
The wound still fresh from its creator sole.
I await for the day,
when the one who made this 12 a reality someday.
