I am not I

I am not I.
I am this one
Walking beside me whom I do not see,
Whom at times I manage to visit,
And at other times forget.
The one who remains silent when I talk,
The one who forgives, sweet, when I hate,
The one who takes a walk when I am indoors,
The one who will remain standing when I die.

By Juan Ramon Jimenez
(Translated by Robert Bly)


Women have always played a great part in my life. Some of them have been my greatest inspirations.
Gran'ma - who taught me to find happiness in the little things that sometimes walk into our life unexpectedly and that family was everything.I will always miss her.
Mom - who taught me to never give up on people, however bad they might be turn out to be. They always have a reason why, they are the way they are....I believe I got my philosophical genes from her =)
Chu Chu - who taught me how to love and whose footprints I carry everyday.....

Im smiling....:-)
There is a line from a movie im remembering now...[but forget the mane of the movie..!] Anyway...a father says to his son.." when you grow up, i want you to treat women as princesses, coz thats what they are!"
I thought that was beautiful; and so true, irrespective of age!
I think all women should be respected, loved,cherished and put up on a pedistal....coz they soo deserve it..man!!!
Nice to hear such nice thoughts on women comming from a man. ;-)
