It was Gibran who said, In only one drop of water are found all the secrets of the ocean.  What a privilege it is for the drop deemed worthy of such an honor. How proud it must feel to be entrusted with such glorious distinction..
But it must also be exhausting for a single drop to harbor confidences of such vast proportion. 
Does it yearn to relinquish its burden and flow freely amongst it's kind unencumbered? I wonder... Or perhaps the noble task of safeguarding the ocean's treasures has become a vital part of it's very existence...

I don't know, but I find myself fascinated.

Charlie.




Peace is a precious rare commodity
Would that I could bottle and sell it I'd be rich

My baby nephew - the oldest of my five nephews and niece - is not quite a baby anymore at 9 years old. I love them all to bits and pieces but this kid owns a slightly bigger chunk of my heart. Today I read my first email sent to me from him. He sent me pics of their new bunny rabbit Charlie and invited me to come over and meet him. The email read:

Aslamualakum Popo
 
                    I just got a rabbit on July 2,2009. Here are some  pics! Please show Chachu and don`t show Dadubuji he dislikes rabbits. On the pics it may seem that the eyes are red but they are really brownish. You and Chachu come over some time.

After reading it, I wanted to cry like a baby
