Why this journey

There is a major factor we most often fail to consider when we make plans for the future, that factor my friends, is called Life.In my mind I picture it like the game Hide and Seek.You have a few minutes to find a spot, and Ready or not.. here it comes. Life unravels itself in the most random way sometimes, and regardless of how much we prepare for it, I am learning that there are certain things we will just never see coming.
As Human beings we are all vulnerable to the Whens, Whys, Hows and Wheres that the various circumstances we face throw at us. Sometimes it's just that tiny little piece of the puzzle we are searching for, and other times it's the uncertainty about where to begin.
So I began a journey,a search is to discover what it was in me that was constant. I wanted to know the thing that stands true even when hit with the greatest paradox in life,that immeasurable gap between my dreams and my reality.
This Blog is all about that journey. An attempt to hold unto one thing I am certain was the same the day I was born, and will stay true till I die.
Giving my Life to Jesus has released to me what I believe is the greatest treasure of all times. The best way I can describe it is as, is a Personal mirror of truth.I must admit that my reflection scares me most of the time, for the simple fact that it is perfect.I must admit that I have been bothered by the parallels of what I see and how I feel but slowly I see possibility of these paths merging. This Perfection, I have come to understand to be the way GOD sees me. It is independent of what I have said or not said, what I have done or have not done. It is that part of me that does not fluctuate.
I look deep into this mirror and though what I see must be true, it seems so hard to believe because it is contrary to what i know of myself.
I am hoping that through this journey , I can grow to share God's Perspective which is The reflection in the mirror.It is Clear now and I hope it becomes even clearer, I am just perfect for the Job He has for me.
I hope these reflections, prayers, poems and thoughts will strike a cord in you too and maybe we all can start looking past what Life says about us, to finding our own mirrors and admiring that perfect reflection in the Mirror.

Beauty in Paradox

I ask the question sometimes
What the constant is at times
When I am caught between two extremes
Both ME!
Trying to find a balance between the Heat and the Cold in my soul
Yet trapped by the thought that the Lukewarm He'll Spew out 

I picture  Mountains I have climbed
I remember Valleys I crawled and lay in
Destinations I glorified
While deeming  the true light that exists in the journey
Tic.. Tac.. Too..

Who am I?
An Answer that in the height of my Glory
And  in the depth  of my misery I could not grasp
For fear that they would be defined by outcome 
Which is always subject to change.
Which am I?

Realizing only now I am but a vehicle ever so frail
Dents Unavoidable, Batteries subject to Fail 
Constant need of fuel... call it motivation
Yet in the Hands of the Engineer
Who sees fit to equip this frailty 
Ignoring the Cosmetic work sometimes
For fear it might take away from the most beautiful thing
It's Engine.
What a beautiful mind,
Bringing out such beauty from PARADOX.
