Ponderings

Life is not easy, to say the least. Nothing in life, that's worth having, comes easy.

Yet, in the difficulties that life brings us, if we can find beauty in the colours of a rainbow, in the laughter of children, or in the quietness of being with someone with whom no words is needed; we find that a journey strewn with difficulties can still be beautiful.

There are choices we make, people we choose to be with, that bring us to even narrower and less trodden paths; perhaps even more difficult than others. Yet, it's these very choices that make us who we are, and make our lives a journey  that are uniquely ours.
 

Then once in a blessed while, we get to feel the slightest flutter of a new life, from within. All eager for the pages of his or her life to unfold, and we realise, with wonderment, what a miracle life is.

The miracle of life, is made even more magical when we see that it encapsulates ourself, and the one person with whom we choose to share life's journey with. The beauty of creating life with your better half, a baby with both our DNA, flesh, blood... To think the smile that filled my dreams live on in the faces of our kids...
