Happy Birthday Mum

Mother, can I run for President?

-- Mother, The Wall, Pink Floyd, 30-11-1979

To you who raised me

I offer this thought

It is something I learned

Without being taught

In all the world

There is no other

To take the place

Of my dear Mother!

Happy Birthday Mum! You are the light of our lives, now and forever!

    Happy B'day to your mother, Rak :)

    read all the posts...You make sense most of the time...but in the last "speak to me" -- about our life being in our hands...i think i said before too...Its not, i think; the only option in your hands is how you react to it -- right?

    wishes,
    devika

    Thanks very much! Truly appreciate your wishes and will pass them on!

    And yes, regarding the life part that I talked about in speak to me, what I meant was that the consequences that we face are as a result of our actions!

    Destiny and its happenstances, are quite another thing indeed!

    Cheers
