Be the Light...

Sometimes we purposely put ourselves in a state of darkness, just to see if anybody comes to help us. Sadly , people hardly come. The human tendency to think about others, is only in times of need. Mostly its the need, that drives us towards other people.


At times, all of us hit an emotional rock bottom. Where this heart we've got, weeps, as it waits for somebody to understand its pain. Yes, we wait. That's what we do. Cry a little and then wait.



This is our world–ɂ. People are always looking for some love, some concern. Everybody wants to be loved. Nobody wants to love.


Just recently, I realised something. We all keep waiting. Nobody actually takes a step. Makes an effort. Shows some concern. We expect love. We rarely show it.


There's a greater degree of happiness in giving love, than receiving it.


Make someone smile. Show some love. Let there not be a reason behind it.


So pick up that phone and talk to that friend who's been missing since days , tell that crazy friend how much you love him, wish that friend good luck for his new job.


Everybody is looking for some light in their lives. Be the light.

In a Bloody Hurry...

Sometimes, this mind of ours presses the rewind button.

Takes us back to the time, when life could be called "life" for many reasons.

When the dining rooms, were filled with sounds of laughter. Echoing everywhere were voices, of each and every member of the family. Even little Kevin, was heard, and everybody laughed to his innocent jokes. Nobody really cared about what was on the Tee Vo.

A time when bad days, didn't matter, because we could always sit and talk to somebody. A busy daddy, would leave his office early, just to catch up with his family. Nobody was in a bloody hurry.

Yes, occasions were celebrated with more joy and enthusiasm. The places were lit with faces. Smiling faces. Nobody cared what you were wearing or what was in dinner.
A time when we used to wait desperately for a family outing. The entire week, we had a smile on our face. Thinking about the fun we would have. Now, a family outing means sacrificing a weekend.

Yes, a mommy's hug was the best gift. Now it has been replaced by that game console.
Times have changed. We've become involved in our lives. Involved in a bloody hurry.

Looking back at those times, I feel that, We've come way too far. We've left behind those priceless smiles, those joyous laughter sessions. Those little things that truly made us feel grateful about our existence.

Its been a while since, I wrote something. This blog post is an attempt to break the freakin' ice.

Anyhow. I really think that back in the old days. Life was much much better. Maybe because we were kids that time. But still I think, it actually was much better back then.

What do you guys think?

The Nature Celebrates

Outside my window,
was a lifeless world.
He was not listening,
to the nature's thirst.

The trees lay still,
The grass seemed dead.
The bids didn't sing,
from their nests.

Sitting on His throne,
He looked at the silence.
Lost in its own world,
The nature lay silent.

With a smile on His face,
the skies became dark.
The birds started singing,
on His command.

Tress danced,
from end to end.
The grass was green,
seemed no longer dead.

With a loud thunder,
It started to pour.
Celebrations could now ,
wait no more.


Kids ran from their homes,
onto the streets.
Splashing water,
with their feet.

Innocent faces,
smiled at the sky.
For He had been,
so very kind.

Looking at all this,
A tear dropped from his eye.
He welcomed the happiness,
with a big smile.

When people forget to smile,
Lifeless become our lives.
He sends His love,
to make it all worthwhile....

I had written this for a friend's cousin. She had to write a poem on the topic - "Bringing lifeless objects to life"

So I thought of showing my love for the rains, through this poem.

When it rains, I can feel my soul flying high up in the sky. Its a feeling that just can't be described.

I love to stand in my balcony, with a cup of tea and some light music , looking at the nature celebrate.
