How much you truly means to me

Have I told that I'm silently praying for  you

How proud I'm of your achievements 

Now a new dimension has peeked in to you

And you are on the way to success

To meet your goals in life

To fulfill your awaiting  dreams 

You are blessed with talent my love

With much creativity to share

I know even you are not aware

Of the gift that God has share

You are an inspiration to all around

You treat all as your equal

All I try to say on this day my love

I'm proud of you in all days to come.

Sri Lanka, the pearl of Indian ocean has a history dating back in time. It is a place where the original soul of Buddhism still flourishes and where nature’s beauty remains abundant and unspoiled. Few places in the world can offer the traveler such a remarkable combination of stunning landscapes, unspoiled beaches, captivating cultural heritage and unique experiences within such a compact location. Almost dangling like a pendant from the southern tip of India, Sri Lanka has been known as the Peal of the Orient for its variety of attractions. It is not a mere tropical isle known for sun, sea and sands, although it has all this in plenty. In fact the island has over 1400 km of sun-kissed beach..With its year-round summer and two different weather systems, whatever the time of year, there’s always a beach with sunshine and a choice of calm seas or steady surf depending on what you feel like. There’s a beach for all tastes, budgets and seasons in the lovely island of Sri Lanka.


Sri Lanka is an island that is captivating both by its name – that means Land of Splendor – and by what it actually offers to the visitor. The attractions of Sri Lanka – known to the world by several names from ancient days – have been known through the centuries. While legend has it that this is the Lanka of the Ramayana, it is the name by which it has always been known to its own people.The Romans called it Taprobane, marked on Ptolemy’s map of the world, derived from “Tambapanni” – land of copper colored earth and lotuses given by the first known migrants from North India. The Arab traders of the past called it Serendib – island of delight, which gave birth to the English word Serendipity – the prospect of discovering pleasant suprisess which the British called it Ceylon. But the people of the East, as distant as China, always knew the island by the name given by its own people – Sri Lanka.

I sit here quietly watching the waves

All most all marriages start with a gala celebrations with their family and friends. Each and every couple has their own dreams in the new life together. But the road to a happy marriage doesn't come in all inclusive package. A happy marriage is far from easy and most of today couples do not complete the journey together. Looking at the higher rate of divorces today we able to think where marriages are heading nowadays.

I sat down and kept looking at the fading horizon and my life. Lot of things  were happening around me for the past few weeks and some were very powerful to tore me down. There were so many trials that I needed to jump and even with fear I faced them to realize the strength to look far ahead. With heavy hearts and painful events I realized that sorrow never last for ever and every morning has its glory of the day. Past is just a part of life and I realized that time heal most wounds. Every heart goes through what I went through. We all sit down and cry to things that hurt us or tore us down. Life is never a bed of roses and no one promised that. Tears and joy are part of life and i realized that I needed to be stronger to face all what comes in my way.

Pain always comes with lessons or harder lessons and it doesn't mean that we must stop halfway. Pain is the little voice in your head which holds you back because it knows that if you continue , you will change. Pain will always barrier you to walk in to the future so don't let it take charge of who you can be. Exhaustion will pull you down and will hold you back and let that stop your journey in success. It's not about the past or the future but it's about who i am in the present and the decisions lies with me to make a choice,

Your arms around me , wrapped so tight

A touch soft and tender, a whisper full of desire

Gasp of sweet surrender as passion flares the fire

You learn that the people who care about you the most are the ones that you hurt.....You will take these people for granted assuming that they will be in your life for ever. You will also learn that people who hurt you are the ones who needed you most in their life. Some times these people hurt you not coz they don't like you maybe they love you more than you love them. But most of all you will learn that love is only a concept and cannot be defined. Every human feels love in different levels and experience it in different ways but what we all want is to be loved.

I always had my weakness for men in uniform and when I met you I knew I met the man in my dreams. Being a soldiers wife was not easy, it had so much sacrifice , loneliness , and pain but it also have it's own glory of being a soldiers wife. It was not easy to let you go back once you come home for a short vacation  Actually it was the hardest to do. I keep crying behind your back for hours and never show my tears to you as I fear my tears would weaken your mental strength  I see tears in your eyes at moments of good bye but my love, every time you leave me I silently pray for your life and I know God will bring you back home safely.

We both had a dream and slowly we were beginning to reach that dream. Unexpectedly, you with drew your self from every thing and left me. You left me with a broken heart , a broken promise and a broken dream.When things are broken no matter how much glue or tapes you use to hide the cracks the cracks will be visible. I always had the ability to hide my cracks but where you are concern I'm weak , as the light it self reflects my scars in perfection.
