My Notepad..

I go out on the balcony and the tender rain droplets fall on my face, the lush green trees in front wave and praise the glory of mighty creator. The sky above is plain white but still alluring.

I go out on the balcony at night and there is this shimmery dark blanket over my head, the sidereal sky which captivates me in its depths.

I open both the doors of my friend’s room and there is a gush of wind ready to sweep me off my feet.

I open the door one sunny afternoon and there is my friend with home cooked food made by her mother for all of us.

I sit in my room all gloomy and suddenly a song played somewhere in my friend’s room makes my lips curl.

I'm surrounded in doubts of uncertainty and suddenly my friend calls up to hold my hand out of the hullabaloo.

I am all tanned and tired, my friend comes with a bottle of water and I’m all energized.

I happened to have a severe headache, all my friends came by my side and comforted me in the best possible way.

I plan to go out on a trip with my friends hardly ten minutes prior to the start of the journey.

I'm in the middle of Ganges playing Ring, ring a rosy with my friends all ignorant to the water rapids ahead.

I sign a silly pact with my friend and we become the best of friends. A friendship I would cherish all my life.

It has been a long time and we didn't have any birthday party so we happen to celebrate a friend’s birthday out of the blue just for having the sumptuous cake. *chuckle

Its a marriage party of my friend’s cousin and we all deck up as if it happens to be our D-day.

It’s an interview of few among us but still all of us are equally involved.

It’s the rain all wet and wild which makes each one of us dance and the Bollywood songs at the backdrop simply make us groove on its tunes.

It’s the heartily bond which I share with my friends which is probably indefinable.

The Symphony of love..

Look into my eyes

you’ll see the world

I’ll be your sight

and together we’ll make the things right!!

The waves going over the crest are touching the shore of my heart

feelings like molten coal having become darker and deeper 

make me cling to you like the evergreen creeper!!

I want to cross the seven rivers and fly across the seven skies

leaving aside all the worldly ties!!..

Perception

Though this may sound funny but I have a strong instinct that makes me believe that we all have been packed and delivered on this wonderful earth with some motive which knowingly or unknowingly we do fulfill in our life. The day we are born there is the destiny written for us by the lord above and in future we work towards it. Every person is one of those wonderful art pieces of the mighty painter above which doesn't even marginalize with his other creations though there are some strokes of color which are repeatedly used, then some of them are his master pieces which are envied by his other artworks. These strokes of color decide our individual nature and once we are born these colors are actually nourished by our surroundings.

Black reflects the negative side of our mind; white shows the serene side of our heart, red shows the energy levels of our body and pink shows our sensuality and our passion for the things. Basically it’s an endless list with each color having its apt significance. Our thoughts are influenced a lot by our surroundings. When we are born our parents tell us about our surroundings and the people around us but as we grow up we develop our own power of thinking, we start perceiving things from our point of view and slowly start making an opinion about them. No doubt sometimes the world around tries to tamper our thoughts which becomes irritating but then at times things are to be accepted the way they are. I know this particular statement reflects a very meek attitude towards life but some things are better if left unsaid. In our childhood there are instances when we simply overlook the things which aren't that important to us but as we mature these things become significant. At times there are situations which are differently looked upon even by the siblings then how can we expect same kind of response by two distinct individuals. With age our maturity and level of understanding as I said earlier changes distinctly. Though there are cases when we actually try to run away from the situations prevailing around us but do you think this really shows us the way out.

There are people who wait for the lightning to strike from the clouds. Some don’t live up to their expectations, they tend to change course of their lives as per the things around them or to please the people around without giving a second thought. Such people sometimes get flabbergasted when situations pounce in front of them may be because they aren't capable to take a decision of their own. Such people are pretty insecure; they treat themselves with pity and think they are inferior to their pals without realizing their strengths. History has been evident, that those who earlier lived in deep slumber when showed the light did exceptionally good in their respective fields.
