Journey!


What is it about life that one goes in search of? Is it love? Is it wholeness? Is it family? Or an un-ending sense of loneliness?
When we arrive, we forget why we have made the journey. We wish we could go back to that safe place somewhere in the light, from where we were sent to learn about a mundane existence, called Life!


But once we know that we can not go back home until we have learnt our lessons, we gear up to go ahead with Life. We may struggle at first in a world which is so alien to us. We may feel strange feelings with our new found senses. We touch, feel, taste, hear and see a world which has lost the meaning of its existence. Still we don't lose hope.

With Faith in our hearts we try to bring about change. Forgetting that the only thing that is constant is Change! Then the Big Question hits us! "What am I here to do? Where am I heading?" We grovel in these unanswerable questions. This is when a little voice inside of us tells us that to find the answers we need to look into ourselves.

But over the years we have learnt to ignore this tiny voice...and now the voice begins to fade all together. Then not knowing that we could rely on this tiny voice called Intuition we go about life as if we were some kind or automated robots.

When the day comes for us to go home, we regret not learning the important lessons in our life. The lessons of Love, Compassion, Joy and Introspection. When we finally realise what we did wrong, we plan to come back again and do another journey to learn these lessons. And so it goes on.

But little do we realise that if only we paid attention to that little voice inside of us we could have been guided through the journey of Life and not only learnt the lessons we were sent here to learn but also the mysterious emotions and intricate secrets of relationships! So next time you are worried 'Where am I heading?' just pay attention to what that little voice inside of you says. You will automatically know what to do.

Explicit

When people talk, do they always say what is on their mind? Or do they live in a fear that words once thrown, like stones, can create ripples in the water? I have been thinking of how honest people actually are, when I got the news that honesty is a flexible term and can be moulded according to the situation or circumstance. As I rode my two Wheeler to office today, I looked around on the street and saw 'dishonest' people. Where are they going? What are they going to say next which may not be honest? I was infuriated at the thought that at some point of time I can also be 'dishonest'. So what is honesty? Should people be explicit with their feelings to be considered honest? A friend who comes dressed like a Fashion disaster wouldn't want to hear the words circulating in your head. So you say nice things to her like, oh what a lovely dress! But do you really mean it? Most often NO. Then are we being truthful? We two people fall in love, it is an amazing feeling. We...

What can I say...

What is it about life? We smile when we don't want to. We answer questions even when our lips barely want to move. We look excited when our insides scream for some quiet. I hardly know what life wants out of me? I am not expecting life to give me anymore than it has given me. A caring family, lovable friends, and an intelligent mind. But there is a void inside my soul, which I can't quite understand. Man, they say, is a species that has always wanted more than he has. There is an old story that says that, when God asked man what he wanted, he said he wanted the sight of an eagle, the agility of a leopard, the strength of a lion, and the wise mind of an owl. So be it, God had said. But the animals knew what man actually acquired - the virtue of Greed! Why am I telling you this? Well, I feel the same want. Though its not materialistic, a want is a want, none the less. I want to know what it will take to fill the void inside my soul. I want to know where I am headed. I want to kn...

SILENT TEAR

Every time a tear drop falls, I tell myself never again will it happen. I hug myself and promise the universe, no matter what I will not hurt again. But love makes it so hard for me to hold back all the memories & emotions that flow from my eyes. I keep quiet, listening to my heartbeat slowly. I feel the pain in my chest, but a smile covers my face! How ironic life can get? But we still believe in it. One door closes, a window opens, they say. But in a room with no windows, do we breath, do we stay alive or do we die? I don't deserve this love-less state of mind! Patiently, I waited all these years, believing you would come to me, in a dream, like a dream, like a ray of sunshine through the dark night! I smile at the sight of you, a tune struck a cord in my heart, and I begin to dance! Dancing my pain away? No, a welcome dance. A dance to fresh pain, for a new tear drop on my cold cheek. I stand still now, I suddenly realize that my heart is under an attack. Open, my heart is ...
