Don’t give up… (a dream)
------------------------
Don’t give up your dreams,
or your act of dreaming.

Don’t let life cut your line,
as you reel in those dreams.

Hold on tightly,
keep reeling,
don’t give up,
and grab that net...

And if they look like
they're about to leap out of the net
after you have caught them,
jump in after them, and keep on swimming
till you drown if you have to;
but don’t ever let go of those dreams...
--------

This is what I had read some time back, and I always cling on to this piece of thought...very inspiring, very spiritual in a different sense...

I hope that you share the same thoughts too.

Regards, sudhir.


 Hey you, out there in the cold,
Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisle,
With itchy feet and fading smile, can you feel me?
Hey you, don't help them to bury the light.
Don't give in without a fight.
Hey you, out there on your own,
Sitting naked by the phone, would you touch me?
Hey you, with your ear against the wall,
Waiting for someone to call out, would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home....

Sudhir; I can not blaim my browser for this second post. I wanted to share scripture with you about dreams. Not knowing what religion you are, nor does it matter for there is one God, called many names, but I read from the King James Version and wanted to share; Dan 1:17; 5:12; And in the last days God will pour out His spirit upon all men, young men will dream dreams, old men will have visions.(Not quoted there) Joel 2:28; Acts 2: 17;
Sorry for the long post, I guess I got a little preacher in me. {smile} Marcy

Karilea, Ellie, Marcy,
Thanks for reading... How I wish these were penned by me, but still these are very inspirational to me. It helps me keep my hopes alive...

Marcy, your post is too good to be called long, in fact I wanted more in the same theme. Thanks for posting what you just did.
Religion, please don't mark me up for any. I am non-religious in heart and soul. My beliefs are not restricted to God as picturised by a certain cross-section of people who divide the sea of humanity into rivers of religion. After all the rivers do finally end up in the big sea, don't they?

Spiritually, I simply believe in a superior being, the guardian being to whom I am accountable for my actions, and who gives me the power to hope for the best to happen to me and my brethren.....

Many regards to all of you,
Sudhir.
