Bunny & Naina

By: Gabriela Yareliz

Naina and Bunny. 🙂 So cute. How could you go wrong with a guy named Bunny?


(Kabira has been stuck in my head for days.)

Bunny: But there is a right time for everything, and today, it’s the right time for this… Naina, will you marry me?
Naina: You’ve lost your mind. This is fake. (The ring)
Bunny: But my love is real, baby! Sorry, I didn’t have a lot of time…Naina!!
Naina: Bunny, you’ll run away.
Bunny: So you bring me back.
Naina: So that means you’ll run away?!
Bunny: I won’t go anywhere! Try it and see!
Naina: Try!? Marriage isn’t about trying. Once you are in it, it’s boiled food for fifty years ’til you die! Can you handle it?
Bunny: Are you trying to scare me?
Naina: Already scared? This is not your cup of tea.
Bunny: Fine then. I am going.
Naina: Bunny!
Bunny: Will you marry me or not?
Naina: Why do you want to marry me?

Bunny: Because I can’t escape you. You’ve screwed me over! I still want the same things, but now, I want them with you! I still want to see every corner of the world, but with your hand in mine! Look Naina, time waits for no one. It flies past us, and we get left behind. And before I get left too far behind, I want to spend some time with you. You make me happy Naina. In my mind, we are already married. Now come on, you marry me too!

Such a long speech; the least you could do is clap.

Tu Mun Shudi (excerpts)

Translated by: BollyMeaning

Too mun shudee tu mun shudi
Mun tu shudam tu mun shudee

You have become me, you have become me
I have become you, you have become me

Hai niddar dil daa safar
Ho niddar dil de hamsafar
Raj key humsey wafayein lenaa
Taazaa hawaayein lenaa

The journey of heart is fearless
Oh the companion of the heart, be fearless
Take faithfulness from us
Take fresh air from us

Haan dil ke kisse mein
Jo din hai hisse mein
Laaye jaayenge, paaye jaayenge laayenge
Woh dil se..
Hata de fikrein
Bhula de fikrein
Jala de fikrein

In the story of heart,
whatever days are there in your share (in your fate)
They’ll be brought, they’ll be had,
s/he’ll get them (to you) from the heart..
Remove the worries,
forget the worries,
burn the worries..

Yaaraa sang aa aa jahaan khwaabon ka doonga
Jis mein hogaa sab zindaa
Sheher bhi dil ke maanindaa
Khul kar saansein legaa baashindaa

Come O beloved, I’ll give you the world of dreams,
Where everything will be living..
Even the city will be like heart itself,
One will breathe freely (there)..

[as in, one will be completely free there.]

Lonely?

By: Gabriela Yareliz

Excerpt from Ezra 8:22, “The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek Him;…”

Ravi Zacharias argues that the cure for loneliness is worship. A provocative and excellent thought! (The Inner Ache of Loneliness, Part 2 of 4, RZIM)

“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.” Walden, Henry David Thoreau

Be not like the mass of men. Find peace and a friend in God.

Seeing

“Whatever we see, there is almost always more. It is probably the one thing we can count on—and the one thing we do not. Christian philosopher Esther Lightcap Meek writes, “We labor under the misimpression that we see what we see, that seeing is believing, that either I see it or I don’t.”(3) Perhaps seeing is not always about 20/20, and seeing God is something else altogether.” Jill Carattini, A Slice of Infinity, RZIM

I know in whom I have believed

“He [Paul] assured them that nothing shall fail of all that the Lord hath spoken concerning His tried and faithful ones. They shall arise and shine; for the light of the Lord shall arise upon them. They shall put on their beautiful garments when the glory of the Lord shall be revealed. For a little season they may be in heaviness through manifold temptations, they may be destitute of earthly comfort; but they must encourage their hearts by saying, I know in whom I have believed. He is able to keep that which I have committed to His trust. His rebuke will come to an end, and the glad morning of peace and perfect day will come.” – {SR 318.2} Ellen G. white, The Story of Redemption, Chapter 43
