This too shall pass..

Noone can come any closer than this to me. When the tides were good and the weather was fine, when the winds blew just right for the day and time, when the sun sent his strong yet gentle rays over our hearts, when the song of life was just calm and sweet.. You were there. To help me appreciate the beauty of life. The fantasies of life. Those little drops that make up the big ocean. You sat with me, and shared that excitement in me. Your mind jumped with mine when it got happy at the smallest and silliest goodness. You gave your lap for me to lie and enjoy the bliss of life's comforts. You taught me that these are not eternal, but if only we can see through these bits of happiness, these pieces of love, can we, solve the bigger puzzle of life, with Gratitude and satisfaction..

And yes, when the weather got rough, when the winds blew all against us, when the sailing got tougher day by day, when the multitudes of our hopes and dreams got drowned in the deepest of the oceans, when each day became a hurdle too difficult to pass, when the world around treated me like I never existed.. You were still there.. Holding my hands tight, telling me that if it was not for my treading, I wouldn't even have reached this far. You gave your shoulder to me so that I can see through the hurdles and perishes clearly to plan ahead, plan for a greater return with stronger tactics. I laid my head on your chest so that I can forget for a while the plethora of misfortunes and focus all my energy into that inner Self of mine and discover the greatest truth and comfort in myself. You lent me your ears and your time, your brain and your energy, so that not only could I realize my faults one by one but also acknowledge them with humility. So that as this life unfolds its mysteries and magic, I am prepared, to look into me strongly and with confidence and to find out the answers to life's questions, which more than else lies just within us. For you taught me that this too is not eternal. This too shall pass...
