Something so beautiful to share

A beautiful video I wanted to share
Made me shed a tear...

The One



Sometimes ppl ask
'How did you know he was the one?'
'The one' to melt away with..

I began to doubt my choice
My personal Hukamnama confirmed it
Confirmed it so precisely

We are going through some rough times
There seems no light at the end
But all I know he is the one

Guruka Singh explains this so perfectly

What does my Guru say?

I need serious advice

From my Guru

It is to my Guru that I can turn to



I ask what is the correct path

The one I have embarked upon?

Is this the path?



Is this the path to my Guru?

Will I attain full support for the day?

Day I take amrit?



Will the one deliver the promises?

My heart says yes..

What does my Guru say?



Will I be able to cope?

Can I handle the pressure?

There is only ever one marriage



What does my Guru say?

Reading Today's Hukam, my Guru knows how I feel....I await your answer....

The answer to the above was as follows:

Feeling so down





Why do I feel so sad?


Why dnt no-one understand

Marriage will affect me the most

Working

Studying

I can't have it all


My parents understand

The bigger picture is so blurred

Cnt even talk to the one

The one just wants marriage


Why dnt no-one understand

The pain I feel

How much I am suffering

Maharaj, why cnt the wedding wait?


I turn to you to understand me

Before anyone

It is about Maharaj

It is about us


The one seems so far

Cannot even open up

Yet Maharaj is by side

Through thick and thin


Help Me Maharaj, pls

Not long now, Maharaj



Not long Maharaj
Before the big sit down
Between the 2 families
I stand with my hands folded

It is
It always was
Forever shall be
In your hands

I ask for the true path
I ask for guidance
I seek your support
You know our situation at home

So far, yet so near


I miss the one
