Greatest Form Of Love by Ishita Roy @Ishitrozel
It was a warm and sunny afternoon; Mom had given me a bowl of ice-cream and a spoon. With that I sat on our little balcony, And tried to cheer up in spite of the cacophony, Of the birds that had come to perch on the adjacent Jamun tree, To congratulate the mother crow that had given birth to siblings three. I peered over the railings to have a look at the babies, As the only young ones I had ever seen were my own little kitties. The newborns looked like pink cotton balls; They did not … [Read more...] about Greatest Form Of Love by Ishita Roy @Ishitrozel

State of Mind: A journey through the hills and valleys of life by Donald Easton-Brooks
PREFACE My college religion professor would say, "I have borrowed stories, I have made stories, and stories have made me." I believe that stories are what keep us connected to the world. Without them, we would be in this world alone and in shame. Our shame would smother us and cause us sadness. Stories help keep us connected to one another. Just knowing that someone else in the world suffers with the things we suffer with, helps us to know that we are not alone. However, often times, the … [Read more...] about State of Mind: A journey through the hills and valleys of life by Donald Easton-Brooks
