If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.
Anticipate the difficult by managing the easy.

Ramadan
Silent tears falling down my cheeks
As I watch you walk away
My heart beckons to you
Not to leave me once again
How I wish you didn't have to go
How I wish it wasn't so..
As I watch you walk away
My heart beckons to you
Not to leave me once again
How I wish you didn't have to go
How I wish it wasn't so..

Les Passantes
Je veux dédier ce poème
A toutes les femmes qu'on aime
Pendant quelques instants secrets
A celles qu'on connait à peine
Qu'un destin différent entraîne
Et qu'on ne retrouve jamais
Mais si l'on a manqué sa vie
On songe avec un peu d'envie
A tous ces bonheurs entrevus
Aux baisers qu'on n'osa pas prendre
Aux cœurs qui doivent vous attendre
Aux yeux qu'on n'a jamais revus
Antoine Pol

Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux
Mon bel amour mon cher amour ma déchirure
Je te porte dans moi comme un oiseau blessé
Et ceux-là sans savoir nous regardent passer
Répétant après moi les mots que j'ai tressés
Et qui pour tes grands yeux tout aussitôt moururent
Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux
Il n'y a pas d'amour qui ne soit à douleur
Il n'y a pas d'amour dont on ne soit meurtri
Il n'y a pas d'amour dont on ne soit flétri
Et pas plus que de toi l'amour de la patrie
Il n'y a pas d'amour qui ne vive de pleurs
Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux
Mais c'est notre amour à tous les deux
Louis Aragon
Je te porte dans moi comme un oiseau blessé

The Laughing hearts
your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
Charles Bukowski

No water, no moon
In this way and that I tried to save the old pail
Since the bamboo strip was weakening and about to break
Until at last the bottom fell out.
No more water in the pail!
No more moon in the water!
Since the bamboo strip was weakening and about to break
Until at last the bottom fell out.
No more water in the pail!
No more moon in the water!

When you are sitting
Sit and focus on your breathing. Breate in and breathe out.
Inhale, we receive and exhale, we let go.
Through the fluidity of our breathe we will realize that nothing remain the same,
everything will change. Nothing is permanent.

Don't worry be happy
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy

If its yours
What is for you will reach you, even if it be underneath two mountains. What is not for you, will not reach you, even if it be between your two lips

This is life
If your faults become too much in front of the people
And you wish that they were to be concealed,
Then know that kindness covers all faults
And how many faults are kept hidden by kindness!

This is life
Your provision will not be lessened due to life’s delays
And it cannot be increased due to your haste
If, in your heart, you possess contentment
Then you and those who possess the world are equal
And it cannot be increased due to your haste
If, in your heart, you possess contentment
Then you and those who possess the world are equal

This is life
Don’t be afraid of what happens by night
For the affairs of this world are not to last
No sadness lasts forever, nor any happiness
And you shall not remain in poverty, or any luxury

No sadness lasts forever, nor any happiness

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,

preparation for a fight
Those who are skilled in combat do not become angered,
those who are skilled at winning do not become afraid.
Thus the wise win before they fight, while the ignorant fight to win.

Ramadan
To night I heard a knock on my door;
Who can it be,I wasn't quite sure.
I open the door and am filled with glee;
The visitor ahead is no stranger to me.
I welcome the guest with utmost delight;
For I know it has come to give me respite.
Now an air of happiness fills the space;
My home now seems, a better place!
Who can it be,I wasn't quite sure.
I open the door and am filled with glee;
The visitor ahead is no stranger to me.
I welcome the guest with utmost delight;
For I know it has come to give me respite.
Now an air of happiness fills the space;
My home now seems, a better place!
