The Lost, the Found & the Unknown

A tear shed for the found love, A tear shed for the love unfound.. And a tear for the lost A sigh for the found happiness, one for the glee imagined, And one for the happiness lost... A tear for the laughs together, A tear for the laughter undone, A tear for the laughters missed A tear for the lost pride, One for the ego boosted, A smile for the worthless vanity, And a reassurance of the sanity A regret for the spoken words, A regret for the words unspoken, A regret for the words lost   A yearning for the tunes unsung, A yearning for the tunes unheard, And one for the beats missed..   A thought about the lost time, One for the seconds gained And one for the hours wasted..   A hurt from the friend found, A hurt from the anonymous.. A hurt for the friend lost.. A smile for the thoughts found, One for the unfound And one for the lost thoughts..   From the one lost in thoughts..Lost in the unknown..   ...

Of men and sandals.

At this juncture, my groom hunting has lots of things in common with my quest for a nice,decent pair of sandals. My friends know how fussy I am in shopping to get only the perfect ones, be it clothes or sandals or anything. They dread the thought of coming with me to look for a sandal for me. Perfect Sandals For Me, I believe are as rare as a perfect alliance! I have always mercilessly ignored stuff like clothes,shoes if I don't like them cent percent. Even if they are gifts or are carefully handpicked by my parents with lots of love. Now, that could be deadly in the case of a husband.;) My idea of a perfect sandal would be: 1) It should be comfortable to wear. 2) Should look good on my feet. 3) Should not be too expensive. 4) Should last enough I believe, broadly, this would be eveyone's criteria while buying a pair of shoes or sandals, though there could be ppl who dont care about point no:3. But there would be different factors for different ppl for each of these poi...

People can widely be categorized into different groups depending on their influence in your lives: Some people are extremely essential for a happy existence. They are enrichment to your souls and refreshment to your mind and deprivation of their company or their presence in ur life for a period of time ( the duration, depending on ur tolerance level!), once you have known one of this kind could be devastating. You could feel the moss getting deposted on ur soul. Here is where you see sharing of thoughts much more than sharing of daily events. You might go without knowing where exactly he is but never miss to find out how exactly he feels. Such people come to your life not very often, and their words and moments with them are worth treasuring either for the sheer quality of the person or for the very happy times you have had together, the happiness which would have nourished you much more than a "chicken soup" could have done to the souls.. This is the kind with whom you ...

Whats in a dream?

My colleague sent me a new year e-card, wishing me a new year full of a whole lot of things, out of which what struck me was happiness. "Happiness, the kind that you have when your dreams come true." was the wish. True. The happiness you get when your dreams come true is so round, so fulfiling and beautiful. But what about the disappointment when your dreams are shattered? Dreams are His way of showing us something which would grow as a vision (so says my friend - he thinks dreams which would be fulfilled later on are called visions and therefore, only a loser has dreams, the winner always has visions). When we were kids, our dreams, our wishes and fancies knew no bounds and we would crave crazily for even the most unattainable things, which more than once has landed me with disappointment. But we don't care then, we dream, laugh if we get them true, cry if we don't and move on. But the disappointments which surface from our dreams now affect us more. Is it ...

The highs and lows of love?

Below, I have copied excerpts from my personal notes ( where I used to 'blog in' my thoughts ). This was a piece written with a sudden rush of adrenalin . Most of you could disagree with me in this but this is the very thought which passed my mind that very moment when I barfed it all out from my mind. No offense meant. Dec 17th,2004 Love: That divine feeling which puts you in an ecstasy of needing someone and feeling needed, your world will consist of just the two of you, being happy together, no matter what. Enjoying pain together, no matter what. Tasting life together, no matter what… Complementing each other, complimenting each other, Satisfying egos of each other, no matter what.. Loving the self more,consequently. where you discover things like " your soul " and a mate for it!, whose existences were unknown to you till then! A state where you have a tender heart,a soft heart..soft ONLY for the beloved. Hard elsewhere…So hard that a person with ...

I smiled, thinking of the futility of feelings and the futility of analyzing them.. Life is all about this. There is no final destination you’ll reach but the journey is what it is all about. Each person you meet, each incident in ur life would have diffused lots of positive and negative elements into your life. There'd have been lots of people who would have left a lasting impression in your life sometimes by making you happy or sometimes by leaving you hurt or sometimes both . That’s the whole point. Try to imbibe what you think is the best along the path of your journey so that you become one moment richer , or one memory richer(good or bad, you have only gained!), or one scene richer, one feel richer, as you go on along the road ahead. It’s like the road paved with sometimes flowers, sometimes stones, with the scenery around becoming more and more clear as you move on, with each pixel revealing itself with more clarity as you move further. Those pixels which you seek out becom...

On Boredom.

Boredom : The other day, I was travelling back home from office in the Wipro bus..Bus journeys to and from office are okay for me. On the way to office , I read something and coming back, I listen to radiocity. Listening to songs while travelling is one thing I just love and so the traffic is okay for me as long as Dorais plays me good music. But then, the same old ad breaks which are not as captivating as the songs or Dorais' voice and his "whippings" helped me fly off and wander across the meadows of my mind. I was just thinking of boredom. Thought quite a lot, felt like writing down, didn't have anything, so typed it into my cell. I had quite a bit of problems trying to archive it as my message memory was getting full.. Thought I can blog it all..and here I am sitting down to copy and paste it. Well, copying is not happening..Its not fun..Well then, I shall put down the gist of what I was thinking.. You know what? no moment in life is similar to any other one.T...
