On a quiet Monday evening, I stand by the shore, watching waves rise and fall, listening to the whispers of trees, the songs of birds, the vast embrace of earth and sky. Everything around me feels beautiful, filled with a sacred, positive energy. And yet— if something feels imperfect, it is not the world, it is our restless mind. Our thoughts paint what we see. A gentle mind finds beauty everywhere; a troubled mind sees flaws in everything. We wish for rain to stop when rushing to the office, and for rain to begin when we are home with tea in hand. But nature does not move to the rhythm of our desires— it moves for all. The truth of life is simple: when we think only of ourselves, we see inconvenience. When we think of the whole, we discover that every moment, every breath, is touched with extraordinary beauty. 🌿✨

The True Beauty of Life ✨ By Usha Maniar
The secret of a happy life   Is knowing how to live, And recognize the time and place   To take away or give. To gather joys we must be fair   In all we say and do; The happiness is free to take, The rest is up to you Most people walk a rightness path,   And do their very best, To foster peace and brotherhood,   While feathering their nest. Still there are those, who lie and cheat,   With underhanded ways, Believing they can forge ahead   And gain some unjust praise. And actually they may just feel   Their neighbors thru the years wear a mask of make believe   To hide their self made fears. But happiness does not exist   Upon their shakey shelves, As skies are always gray for those Who cannot face themselves.            Leo M. Janowick       January 16, 1976

Happy Life
Success and true love are not something To be purchased. It is attracted By the person that you become. The road to Success Is not always straight The road to true love Is always looks like wilderness There will be curbs called FAILURE Loops called CONFUSION Speed called FRIENDS Red light called ENEMY Caution light called FAMILY You will have flat tire called JOBS You will enter potholes called FEAR You will be tricked by moth called ANXIETY But if you have a spare called DETERMINATION An engine called FAITH A driver called GOD You will make it To a place called SUCCESS And TRUE LOVE will hugs you To welcome you.

SUCEESS AND TRUE LOVE
A confirmation, About a new life. And God blessing To a husband and wife. Happy, Nervous, and a thousand emotions, that can't hardly chose. A girl Or a boy? I am so excited, to buy a toy.

Time went bittersweet, Hopes and dreams are shaping, including her sense of style, sketchy colors from her attire From roots to fruits, colorful wheel of truth her mates could have similar thoughts, that her body lies and changes contour an invoice of ****** characteristics, continuously develop, are you one of the assets?  Hotter than a winter season, bridges a glimpse of ****** desire The pursuit of independence, Her identity is prominent She could be artist in many ways, So do you, A singer, dancer or a writer, But she’s now logical, an abstract dealer, or in many ways, an idealistic painter She saw the world, simply using her feathers she thinks matches the weather, but most of the time, she fakes and heal from prayers, that one day she’ll know most, of executive’s duties or more

Her Adolescence
If a lie lies within flies, where would it hide and why? If a man is stan of tan, why would he not mend? In a life full of berries, sometimes we take more of cherries We chose silence between resilience, that even nobles defeats from their own science Here, we stand on our feet, we carry our belongings, we cry even if no one wants to listen, we smile in the belief of life is beauty, we sleep because life is both strength and health We think of laughter and sorrow, the vows, the future of future generations, even nature’s life We have come to an end, whether we resume to feel love and give love This all remains, all the beauty of life, is in the map of God’s hand, where we choose to plot good and bad

Happiness
I wake up and watch out my window and see the sun I haven’t climbed a mountain, fought someone, what else haven’t I done? I want to live, I have many things to do. Biking to France or start my own zoo. Maybe sailing on the Great pacific. All those accomplishments would be terrific. I can’t wait till my heart goes faster because I’m skydiving. I believe in anything even Frankenstein’s reviving. You should stay alive, not just for yourself but for the people around you. Or you could do it for yourself and do the things that you like to do

I have always wondered how your kisses never touched my soul now I realize that your love for me was never whole.

Hung ups
You make happiness look so easy to achieve It almost makes me believe That there might be Something more for me But we where dealt different cards My problems fiercely followed and bombard In this harsh game called life I was dealt from the straight blade knife Human monster's never claimed you in your youth Your parents love was only there to sooth A warm family and many friends Always greeted you with warm hugs and grins You never knew loss, only wins You never seen the circling of shark fins Don't get me wrong, I don't begrudge your happy life I'm glad the universe with you had no gripe I only ask you don't judge where I stand For human monsters have always had my hand Dragging me into their agonizing lands Till I was foever stuck in depressions quicksand I would just like for you to acknowledge my pain is real I'm not feeling sorry for myself, this darkness is sealed It's not make belive in my head, it's the scars on my heart, in my memories, on my skin The monsters keep coming there is no end We where delt from diffrent decks We are nothing but universal specks You were dealt better cards Mine from the start was marred I don't judge or envy you I don't want sympathy, all I ask is you give me the respect I'm due

Respect for Depression
Have you ever felt this way? So empty. So lost. Like a raft in the ocean. So fragile. So alone. Like being alone in a crowded room. So much chaos, Yet so quiet. Like a falling leaf; Now, free Yet, dying. Like a flower planted in a soil; Dancing Yet, holding back. Like me, Existing but not Living.

Existing but...
You really know that the only thing that makes me happy in this world is writing poems for you but now you took that away from me and you are expecting me to live a happy life

happy life
I want to smell the best flowers. I want to wear the most creative ink. I want to dance in the rain and feel the sunlight on my feet. I want to create beauty with my soul essence. I want to live a life so free...
