All these while, we have been wishing and praying for happiness, peace and love.. Paradise is MAN-MADE... In such a family, all of us have to practice care, kindness, pateince, forbearance and carry our duties and roles expected of us... Yes, GOD GIVES US A PLACE, we call home... TO TURN TO PARADISE.. it is man-made..

We pray for love..
God gives us the disabled, the sick to care..

We pray for peace...
God gives us small chaos to pacify...

We pray for strength..
God gives us problems to solve...

We pray for happiness...
God gives us tests to try us out...

We pray for achieving distinctions..
God gives us homework and tasks to solve...

REMEMBER, ALL THESE ARE TEMPORARY...
Only those frogs, those maturing frogs will understand..
In the process of putting all things right and proper..
We are being transformed and self-realized..

Only then, we will understand love,
We will treasure peace, strength, happiness...
And these are part and parcel of 'GROWING UP'...
I call it 'MATURING'.. the metamorphic changes..
where diamonds were once upon a time just charcoals...
