  Oh, how wonderful to read this poem and this message on Valentine's Day. All to often we forget whats in the heart and listen to whats in our head. Today we need to "Double Dare You" (ourselves) to start listening to our hearts and together we can have Valentine's Day everyday.

  My heart can see you-
  Hiding behind the magic shadow,
  You created in front of you,
  So you can see me very close,
  But I can also see you through my heart,
  My heart can hear you,
  Keeping my ears close to the walls of the sky,
  And I am listening to your heart,
  My soul can touch your thoughts,
  As my soul is living in you,
  I can feel your thoughts,
  Shooting to the sky to reach to the moon,
  To switch off his lights,
  To see the lights of love in my eyes.

  Stirred something within my heart! Only when I am quiet, I am able to listen to what's within. Something from outside ...like this poem..ruffles something unknown to inside to move into action...If that is not inspiration, what is it?!

  All we've got is this life
  it may not always be great
  but it's definitely worth fighting for
  and time that seems such a friend when we are young
  tries to run away from us as we get older
  all thoes moments, that we long to hold on to
  moments of glory, of joy
  of hurts that made us stronger
  moments that we want to bottle up
  hide in a hole
  or keep a secret
  are perhaps moments that made us now we are
  or what we will be
  and should darkness fall or as we go weaker
  these moments
  will shine a light
  and lead us home

  Thank you Pavi for such a lovely poem! It's important to remember that we in fact create our own boundaries, but they really just get in the way.

  Simply wonderful... Coincidence that I was reading a couplet today
  " roop rang te rekho nyaare, tainu lakh parnaam karaa
  Man budhi te aklo bahre, tainu lakh parnaam karaa"
  Translation : One that has no form and that is beyond intellect and works of mind, my salutations.
  Once we realize such "being" then there is no barrier, there are no boundaries and one universal love is established. In fact at that time, the differnce of sky and the mountain also disappear, you and me become one :) :)

  Beautiful! Wish more people could understand the non-existance of borders and boundaries. I wish more people could live their lives without their thoughts and beliefs imprisoned in little boxes with no room to take in more ...
