Life seems soo good, it has the best it has to offer. But yes, you do not get anything easily though! Life’s just not a bed of roses! It offers all what you want, but definitely not in a golden platter! Yes, treasuring the pearl depends on the struggle to acquire it.
I could want everything under the sun, but God gives me only what I can handle.
Yes, God has complimented me a lot, with emotions I could not overcome. But yes, I was able to live with them, with just a pat on my back! Just like every other fish that finds its own net, every person makes the situation in one’s life!!
When you see the clouds falling in line,
What can you do to stop the storm?
Neither does it make the sea less saline,
Nor does it make life saner!
Adjustments and sacrifices ought to be made,
But, adjustments that crush your emotions!!
Dreamzz and ambitions,
How about making them true???
Two roads diverged in a black wood,
And I don’t know why, I did not travel both!
Sorry if it is sloppy…..just simply shows…conflicting emotions!!!
Me...a software professional, wondering how I'd gotten myself into this! Looking out for a miracle to make things better! Not that life is that bad, but wanting little more is no HARM right?!

A thousand years....
A perfect morning, with just the warm sun… was all set to start a fresh day at work; I knew I had a busy one ahead.
Opened my emulator with this always forgotten password of mine…started my day just as usual… with my headphones on for music! And all set to start work!
My playlist as always….started with Glenn Medeiros’ Nothings gonna change my love….’,just a bit more intrigued than usual… I randomized the playlist.
The next song that played was also one of my favorites – ‘A thousand years’ by Sting. A song so full of love!
‘A thousand years, a thousand more,
A thousand times a million doors to eternity
I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times
An endless turning stairway climbs
To a tower of souls
If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars,
The towers rise to numberless floors in space
I could shed another million tears, a million breaths,
A million names but only one truth to face…’
A song so desperately in love!....
Just then it struck!!! I too had written something about ‘a thousand years’…. Now this got me thinking hard. I had written this, sure less than a thousand years back! But it kind of eluded my memory!
I had almost forgotten I could do a bit of inditing as well! Now was that a surprise??
Din’t know my memory was so bad at remembering my own creation…. I could remember it starts something like ‘ A thousand years from now…’
But just cudnt get beyond that…. Gosh, was I so bad with words????
Finally thunder struck after more than half hour of backtracking!!….and this is how it goes –
‘A thousand years from now...
When I have changed to dust and rain...
I hear you whisper low...
I but will stir again!’
Now, I don remember the last time I had written something like that. I even doubt I had written that now!!
If you ask me now, I would probably be spell bound! Out of words!!! You need to think differently to even put those words together!
I thought people go mature as they grow older…. but am I taking my steps backward?
People can grow up….but can they change??? Well if I could, then the entire world can!
I really don’t know; hope I am still the same! Respecting people and emotions!!
Just retrospecting …
I liked this a lot when I wrote it – ‘In the cries of the blood even the knife feels to forgive’.
And jus remembered one more - 'A touch to reality diminishes the beauty of dreams.'
