There and Back Again...

I was never aware when my voyage sailed thru the brink of life into the other world
What was the feeling that made me an open book again
When I opened my eyes I knew I was no wanderer in this world,
The Vagabond was again a captive, Love had taken me once again in its arms
The aberrance that i evaded comes and whispers to me, hwdy??
Day after day I have been on constant vigil bearing all the pangs of sorrow as a shield
All that I am,has been because of the love lost and once again it flows secretly towards me...

???

வரம் தந்த சாமியும் அவ்வப்போது நினவூற்றும் தான் இருப்பதை...

உன்னை சபிக்கிறேன்...

நொடிக்கு நொடி எழடுமே உன் மனதில் வினாக்கள்

மீண்டும் மீண்டும் விடை அளிக்க நான்!!!

ருத்ரா 

Endless

You have made me eternal, Such is the joy of being with you

This tiny vessel though emptied again and again,You fill it with breezy life

When ever sad i sat at a pew,There you breathed thru melodies forever new

In the proximity of ur sight, My little heart revives from plight

Aeons pass by still u pour love into me,

And still theres an expanse to fill..........

How I wish...

Life always is like a tour package. Comes with its own set of timings and places. To be on the right place at the right time...we may not be that lucky always....This is an ode (or so I chose to call it) to one with pangs of regret as me....How I wish....

Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation. Society exists only as a mental concept; in the real world there are only individuals.

There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:
This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinions of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth.

When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different.

Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.Be yourself. Above all, let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you finish.You just have to do your own thing, no matter what anyone says. It's your life.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Life is filled with so many exciting twists and turns. Hop off the straight and narrow whenever you can and take the winding paths. Experience the exhilaration of the view from the edge. Because the moments spent there, that take your breath away, are what make you feel truly alive.

Life can be like a roller coaster...
And just when you think you've had enough,
and your ready to get off the ride and take the calm, easy merry-go round...
You change your mind, throw you hands in the air
and ride the roller coaster all over again.
That's exhilaration...that's living a bit on the edge...that's being ALIVE.

Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

This is my wish for you: Comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to follow the clouds, laughter to kiss your lips, sunsets to warm your heart, hugs when spirits sag, beauty for your eyes to see, friendships to brighten your being, faith so that you can believe, confidence for when you doubt, courage to know yourself, patience to accept the truth, Love to complete your life.

New Found Love

It is that part of the year where it rains cats and dogs and foodies like me throng for the hot samosas and jalebi's. But at times it feels after a long break from work its time you pen down your memories. So here I go.

The house-wife's life can be strenuous to people like me.From long drives, travel and adventure to staying back at home for someone to accompany you to step outside is a huge jump. While we dream and plan for something from life it shows us that it had a totally different approach towards us. And there you go all blank for sometime until you re-route yourself to the destination awaiting you. At times it seems good to follow your desired plan against all odds but life does teach you its better to adapt yourself to the condition you are put into. I may sound confused but you realize what really lays ahead only when you are crestfallen and a dim light guides you to a new page in a new book. Especially with the Indian Society its for the girl to adapt, its for the girl to act and its for the girl to survive.

Zahir...

I love being friends with you....
I have other friends but none of them are special to me as you....
Only you know my most personal dreams,
My deepest fears, My greatest joys
And my biggest heartaches....
I talk to other friends about everything,
But I save my heart-to-hearts for you....
I cant tell by the expression on you face
That when you say you share my joy,
You really do, juz' as when you say
You understood my disappointment....
I cant tell by the look in your eyes that you are sincere....
I have a lot in common with other friends, but,
Somehow I feel so much close to you and....
You and I have much more in common....
We laugh at some memories, and,
Share the same ideas, and even though.
I will always have other kinds of friends,
We share, And we love sharing it
With someone as sensitive and supportive,
As warm and caring as you!!

களவு

உன் கனவு காடுகளுக்குள் சுற்றி திரியும் மிருகம் நான்
என் கனவுகளை கொள்ளை கொண்ட கள்வன் நீ
காற்றை போல் வந்து கவிதைகள் பேசுகிறாய்
கலகலவென சிரிக்கச் செய்கிறாய்
என்னை சுவாசிக்கிறாய் என்னுளே வசிக்கிறாய்
பிறகு ஏன் என்னையே களவாடுகிறாய்??
