My first day ... my first attempt as a blogger ....

Hey, Do you blog ???
can you share your blog with me ....
I liked your blog posting ...
Was that poem a self composed one?
... these and many more such questions were being exchanged from quite sometime between my friends ... Felt a little dumb that I did not even know what they were referring to ... did a little bit of R&D on my own, was unable to figure this out ... finally, Nafi helped me out on this. Patiently but surely she explained this concept of 'Blogging' when I was in Mumbai on a work related assignment. So on this day, 9th of January, 2009, I have joined the club of 'intellectuals' and have a blog of my own ... finally, I am a Blogger ....
In times of economic, political, religious turmoil that we are going through ... when everything seems down and out ... when man has begun hunting down his own brother, the most obvious question that comes to our mind, "Is there hope for mankind?" ... is there a god that is looking down upon us saying "I am watching ... I care" ...??? Thats when we realise, that we have not looked at the world around us carefully to see the wonders God is working for us. True, there is turmoil, but at the same time the fact of the matter is that "We Live" ... The simple truth "I Am Alive" ... Great indeed are the ways of the almighty to show us that he loves us .... and my first blog is in the form of a song to help us realise that "God Still Loves The World" ...

1) Every tiny star that twinkles in the night sky
Every drop of morning dew
Every spark of fire blazing in the furnace
Every captivating viewEvery rainbow in the sky
Every pretty butterfly
Tells the fascinating news to those who dare to hope…
Ch: And the message is God still loves the world,
God still, still loves the world
So throw your life into his hands,
Day by day discern his plans
God is passionately busy loving you and me
2) Every ocean wave that breaks upon the seashore
Every stalk of golden wheat
Every silver stream that gushes down the mountains
Ever drop of honey sweet
Every eagle flying high
Every worm that wriggles by
Tells the fascinating news to those who dare to hope…
Ch: And the message is God still loves the world,
God still, still loves the world
So throw your life into his hands,
Day by day discern his plans
God is passionately busy loving you and me
3) Every man & woman pledge in love forever
Every little new born child
Ever voice of favor of a needy neighbor
Every radiating smile
Every hand that offers love
Every furing flow of blood
Tells the fascinating news to those who dare to hope…
Ch: And the message is God still loves the world,
God still, still loves the world
So throw your life into his hands,
Day by day discern his plans
God is passionately busy loving you and me

Thank you Nafi ... looking forward to an exciting and active Bloggers journey ....
