Kya hua agar hum gire the,
Gir ke uthna hai humne seekha,
Kya hua agar waqt bura tha,
Uska samna kar ke aage badhna hai humne seekha...
Yeh zindagi hume bahaut kuch sikhati hai,
Aage badne ki sehenshakti dilati hai,
Jo bhi padaav aage aane ko hai,
Unhe paar karne ka rasta bhi hume dikhati hai...
Main kaha thi itni pehle pareshaan,
Zindagi se naraaz nahi, thi main hairaan,
Ab meri soch ki hai kuch alag hi pehchaan,
Jaise naye chadte suraj ki nayi dastaan...
Har subha ab lagti hai thodi meethi,
Har shyaam main hai ab ek jaam,
Apni soch badal ke meri nazaron se dekho,
Aur na poocho humrari zindagi ka kya hoga anjaam...
Jaan ke kya haasil kar loge,
Na jaan-ne main hai ek alag mazaa,
Zindagi ka har ek jiya hua kissa,
Banjata hai humari kahaniyon ka ek mehetvapoorn hissa...
Badi daer baad aaj dil lagta hai halka,
Thodi si khushi main hi hai uchalta, machalta,
Chand logo ki wajeh se aaj mera mann aur dil hai aisa,
Jinke bagaer, shayad hota murjhaye hue phool jaisa...
Aage kya hoga, kya koi jaane,
Aaj main jeene ki li hai zid maine thaan,
Upar waale pe hai mujhe poora bharosa,
Ki aage zindagi se na hungi main pareshaan! :)

I am the Right Brain!
"I am the right brain. I am CREATIVITY. A free spirit. I am passion. Yearning. Sensuality. I am the sound of roaring laughter. I am taste. The feeling of sand beneath bare feet. I am movement. Vivid colors. I am the urge to paint on an empty canvas. I am boundless imagination. Art. Poetry. I sense. I feel. I am everything I wanted to be."

Lunch with God (Twinkies and Root Beer)
This is a story I just read... But HAD to share... just too good!
A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with Twinkies and a six-pack of Root Beer and he started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an elderly man. The man was sitting in the park just feeding some pigeons.
The boy sat down next to him and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed that the man looked hungry, so he offered him a Twinkie. The man gratefully accepted it and smiled at boy. His smile was so pleasant that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered him a root beer. Again, the man smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.
As it grew dark, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up to leave, but before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned around, ran back to the man, and gave him a hug. The man gave him his biggest smile ever.
When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him, "What did you do today that made you so happy? "He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mother could respond, he added, "You know what? God's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the elderly man, also radiant with joy, returned to his home. His son was stunned by the look of peace on his face and he asked," Dad, what did you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied, "I ate Twinkies in the park with God." However, before his son responded, he added," You know, he's much younger than I expected."
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Embrace all equally!

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
God is love.
Whoever lives in love lives in God,
and God in him.

Break Away...
You say to me the time is wrong... after everything between you and me that has gone on...
For once I think I agree, there is nothing more that I need to see...
If you and I are meant to be, is a question only time will have the answer to...
For now I think it best for me to keep away from you...
It is exactly what you asked for, and that is what I have to give...
To help me get my head back on track, from all that's just kept me depressed...
Its like a well known man once said... Its all about connecting the dots...
But one can only see how they connect when we look back, not ahead of us and the lot...
I need to break away from you and the world...
Find my own ground once again, away from this world...
A gamut of emotions I haven't felt before...
Seems like I have forgotten what to do, as though I don't know how anymore...
I really am at a loss of words... maybe its time for me to be that way...
Life beckons... I need to listen... I reckon...
Whoever wants to be a part of me and my life... Will be there...
Its all about the degree of the 'want' I guess...
Anyway...

It is always about the small things...
Something or the other happens everyday for me to believe more and more in the fact that its always about the small things. The little things in life are what really matter...
A friend who knows you, knows what you are made of, know exactly what to say at what time, or what not to say at what time...
You know yourself well enough to know who really cares...
They say the right thing at the right time in a way no one else dares...
If its an instant reaction, a bar of chocolate or a song that reminds them of you...
They will make sure they do all they have to, to be able to get it through to you...
There may be times they know it all, and times when they know nothing...
But that doesn't affect what needs to be done, even if it means to be sitting, chilling and enjoying doing nothing!
The small getaway lunches, the distracting chats and the messages that bring about cheer...
In our hum drum lives, to take us away from the bad moods and take us out for a beer...
Friends old and new do small things at times that make us realize...
That without the small things we really wouldn't have much to our 'happier' lives... :)
Silly kinda mood, but been smiling away to glory realizing how much small things really really matter. Ever so grateful for the people around, god's been kind to surround me with so much love! :)
THank you all and here's to spreading the cheer!
