Happy New Year 2016

Another day has ended, another year has gone by
The same old story, another try at life.
We make promises, resolutions no less
Yet, as the clock strikes the hour, everyone forgets
This year is the same as the last, as the one before that.
So what's new this year, what do we do instead?

Take a close look at yourself. How far you have come!
Realise that the journey has been a struggle,
Yet you found the strength somehow
You fought your battles, you've won your wars.
You stood tall when you heard your call.

Take a moment for it to sink in
Revel in the moment, but remember that you are not done
Time goes on and so must you
Learning and creating a new version of you, say like a v2.2!
So think hard. There is always a choice.

Choose to live this year, literally come alive!

Find joy in all you do, and let excitement follow you
Have an adventure, or go on a trip
Do something but never sit still.
There is so much to see and so much feel

So why stop there, have your fill.
Time will pass you by when you are not looking
But don't let it stop you from having a new year that's full of thrill!

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...

ILLUSION

Everything is an illusion. Life, Love and our Being. Love starts with a spark, an goes up in smoke. Soon Life follows the suit of hearts. We believe because we have to live. But a belief is also like a dream. We wake up to the sunrise. Only to see it fade into the dusk. We hope for a better tomorrow in the darkness of our sleep's night. Only to see it melt into the engulfing light. But we never give up this illusion. Because we have to survive this ordeal. Then what is this illusion that engulfs our being? Is it a future based on the trust on the supreme, or a past built on the dust of a dream? We dream because we need relief. Relief from all that is unreal. But we finally surrender to a surreal feeling. And we give in to the illusion of Life, Love and our Being.

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 ...
