Had he been alive I would have married him by now.<br /><br />I am still searching for a goal to which I can dedicate my rest of the life to. I have found some solace in spirituality and have got this understanding that all of are existing as forms of energies.Sumit also exists but in some other plane which my senses can not percieve.<br /><br /><br />Sumit and I were so telepathic, that if one remembers then the other calls immediately. If he was in some other body now, but my energy would still reach him. This realization that I might be causing him pain to that little kid, made me realize that I should let go of my attachment to him. I have taken the first step n this ten thousand mile journey.<br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Up-to this day I seek inspiration from these lines from the movie Titanic-<br /><br /><br />[Rose is on top of a door in the water and Jack is hanging off the side, shivering in the water]<br /><br />Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet)<br />→ It's getting quiet.<br /><br />Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio)<br />→ It's gonna take a couple of minutes to get the boats organized. I don't know about you, but I intend to go write a strongly worded letter to the White Star Line about all this.<br /><br />Rose DeWitt Bukater<br />→ I love you, Jack.<br /><br />Jack Dawson<br />→ Don't you do that, don't you say your good-byes. Not yet, do you understand me?<br /><br />Rose DeWitt Bukater<br />→ I'm so cold.<br /><br />Jack Dawson<br />→ Listen, Rose. You're gonna get out of here, you're gonna go on, and you're gonna make lots of babies, and you're gonna watch them grow. You're gonna die an old... an old lady warm in her bed, not here, not this night. Not like this, do you understand me?<br /><br />Rose DeWitt Bukater<br />→ I can't feel my body.<br /><br />Jack Dawson<br />→ Winning that ticket, Rose, was the best thing that ever happened to me... it brought me to you. And I'm thankful for that, Rose. I'm thankful. You must do me this honor. You must promise me that you'll survive. That you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless. Promise me now, Rose, and never let go of that promise.<br /><br />Rose DeWitt Bukater<br />→ I promise.<br /><br />Jack Dawson<br />→ Never let go.<br /><br />Rose DeWitt Bukater<br />→ I'll never let go, Jack. I'll never let go.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I so wish I can be like Rose and live my life to the fullest. that will be the best tribute to my friend.<br /><br />NikiKanikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05208979197457253564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984330758590198929.post-58501041613418341432008-06-22T16:00:00.000-07:002008-06-22T16:00:00.000-07:00I can truly relate with this posting.

Mother's Day is always a difficult day for me. <BR/><BR/>JaneJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13841016886643407936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984330758590198929.post-50344812486195867882008-05-02T20:11:00.000-07:002008-05-02T20:11:00.000-07:00Yeah! Right on! The whole "official" marking of ...Yeah! Right on! The whole "official" marking of Mothers Day came from mothers protesting the deaths of their sons in war. Hallmark may have tried to white wash that into a consumer holiday, but the history is recorded and real.

It makes more of a difference than you can know.<BR/><BR/>There needs be more like you, more involvement in communities as it was in days of old, people coming together for the families of lost children in big ways. <BR/><BR/>I wish, oh how I wish, that this society would not shun death, and especially those who are grieving a death. People are so afraid. <BR/><BR/>You, as Elisabeth before you, can break this ground in big ways. I thank you, I am grateful.
