The Journey Of A Mother
For those who are fortunate enough to still be blessed by
Having your Mom with you, this Is beautiful...
It is even more beautiful. It takes my breath!
_______________________________________________
The young mother set her foot on the path of life.
'Is this the long way?' she asked.
And the guide said 'Yes, and the way is hard. And you
Will be old before you reach the end of it. But the end
Will be better than the beginning.'
But the young mother was happy, and she would not
Believe that anything could be better than these years.
So she played with her children, she fed them and bathed
Them, and taught them how to tie their shoes and ride a
Bike and reminded them to feed the dog, and do their
Homework and brush their teeth. The sun shone on
Them, and the young Mother cried,
'Nothing will ever be lovelier than this.'
Then the nights came, and the storms, and the path
Was sometimes dark, and the children shook with
Fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and
Covered them with her arms, and the children said,
'Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near,
And no harm can come.'
And the morning came, and there was a hill
Ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the
Mother was weary. But at all times she said to the
Children, 'A little patience and we are there.' So the children
Climbed, And as they climbed they learned to weather the storms.
And with this, she gave them strength to face the world.
Year after year, she showed them compassion,
Understanding, hope, but most of all...unconditional
Love. And when they reached the top they said,
'Mother, we would not have done it without you.'
The days went on, and the weeks and the months and
The years, and the mother grew old and she became
Little and bent. But her children were tall and strong,
And walked with courage. And the other, when she
Lay down at night, looked up at the stars and said,
'This is a better day than the last, for my children
Have learned so much and are now passing these
Traits on to their children.'
And when the way became rough for her, they lifted her,
And gave her their strength, just as she had given them Hers.
One day they came to a hill, and beyond the hill, they
Could see a shining road and golden gates flung Wide.
And now I know the end is better than the beginning,
For my children can walk with dignity and pride,
With their heads held high, and so can their children
After them. And the children said, 'You will always walk
With us, Mother, even when you have gone through the Gates.'
And they stood and watched her as she went on alone,
And the gates closed after her. And they said:
'We cannot see her, but she is with us still.
A Mother like ours is more than a memory.
She is a living presence.'
Your Mother is always with you.
She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the
Street, she's the smell of certain foods you remember,
Flowers you pick and perfume that she wore, she's
The cool hand on your brow when you're not feeling well,
she's your breath in the air on a cold winter's day.
She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep,
The colors of a rainbow, she is Christmas morning.
Your Mother lives inside your laughter.
And she's crystallized in every tear drop. A mother shows
Every emotion happiness, sadness, fear, jealousy,
Love, hate, anger, helplessness, excitement, joy, sorrow...
And all the while, hoping and praying you will only
Know the good feelings in life.
She's the place you came from, your first home,
And she's the map you follow with every step you take.
She's your first love, your first friend, even your first
Enemy, but nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, not space...not even death!
PASS THIS ON TO ALL THE MOTHERS AND
DAUGHTERS AND SONS YOU KNOW....
MAY WE NEVER TAKE OUR MOTHERS FOR GRANTED.
'The best and most beautiful things cannot be seen or
touched - they must be felt with the heart.'

Was so cool! My first game ever, to see all these good players come together and battle it out!
Shout out to Hv for being the best and letting me stay over and all much love!
So tired gonna have a big sleep soon!
This is a very special cover. A friend on Youtube asked me if I could do a cover version of this song. I had real problems finding any backing for this, so I ended up recording the music myself, but differently.
The song is "Here today" by Paul McCartney. This was a tune that Paul McCartney wrote in honour of John Lennon. His version is guitar based. I had an thought. What if I redo the music, but instead of using guitar. Use a piano sound, similar to that used in John Lennon's Imagine.
I created a montage of pictures for the video. As it hadn't been too long since George Harrison had passed away, I decided to put pictures of the both of them in the video.
Check out the results of my effort below.
This was also a very popular video of mine. It's had 60 ratings to date :)
Now for my Youtube statistics.
I've had an increase of subscribers to 380 now.
There has been a rise of over 100 channel views and it now stands at 9,633.
My overall videos views are now at 105,634. It's going at the rate of nearly 1,000 a day!
Coming up next. Another original song from me :)
(Purple Autumn Melancholy)
My heart soars
for I know not when
or where, but am
happy all the same.
Destiny guides my way,
foolishness drags me along
but the moonlight shines on.
Shooting stars are dangerous,
for false hope is misleading;
and we're all more than willing
to believe.
I know not the way
but remain confident all the same.
Everything is all right
because I'm just--
Wishing, believing, depending on
these tiny, twinkling stars
--(this sky full of miracles)--
hoping for just one that will listen
to my prayer.
I'm just a lonely sheep
staring at a sky full of stars.

Last year, I created the tribute.mindsay.com.tribute
I was trying to relive the site after a year, but failed to do so. I forgot my password.
Last night, I remember him. His face lingered in my imagination. I checked the calendar. Today marks his 30th birthday.
It's been 8 years since I last saw him.
I don't have much to say about him now so I am just reliving the poem I wrote for him in 2001.
Forever
One year has passed
I haven't talked with you since then
You're already at peace with the world
and here I am still struggling for life.
I am missing you
The voice, the care, the love
Where else could I find them
but only in you.
Memories about you are all I have
They make me cry and yearn for you
all the time of my waking life
Even in sleep I dreamed about you.
Sometimes I wish that I should not have been
what I was when we were still together
For I want that our love is forever
It could have been, that's all I could sigh for
Sometimes I wish that you could feel
The beatings of my heart even before I let you you know
You could hear what I think even if you don't hear me
You could dry the tears in my eyes even though you don't see me.
Life's indeed too short
for us to love eternally
But I do believe in forever
That was what you told me...
FOREVER, YOU and ME.

He'd be 30 today if my first ex-bf is still alive.
For tribute2 or the new blog, the theme I chose is light and cool. It's because I already have fully recovered from him.
I am now happy.
Maybe he is also happy now for me...
