SHE

She comes out of flesh
So, She does cry
So,She does bleed
So, She does smile...
She has magic in her.

She was shy and wanted to hide,
But you lend your hand and led her.
She was uneducated, immature
But you came forward to teach her .

She was asked to stay in a veil,
But you helped her break free...
She told you she had a dream...
You helped her realize it.
She was a storehouse of emotions,
But you helped her through it.

She has dared to break free,
She has let her imagination play,
She has let herself fly,
She has redefined herself .

She is a lady,
She is a daughter,
She is a sister,
She is a mother,
She is a friend,
And, She is your Woman...

Wishing each of you Ladies a Very Happy Women's day.... Be proud to be a women. And I thank all the Men out there for the tremendous love, support and care.

Random...

For You

The distances had multipled
And the days had passed,
Summing to a couple of years.
Conversations were briefer,
Nor were there meetings,
But , emotions were forever.

For when a trickle,
Goes down my cheeks
There you come,
Out of nowhere.
And as a smile ,
Lights my face,
I look for you,
And there you are.

You have made me realize
That no tear could flow
Nor smile could light up
Without you to share
By my side.

Proud Indian Women....

In a country, where
Only sportsmen were
Worshipped,
Women have proven
To the world
By etching their names
In the annals of history.

In a world where they
Have been
Abused and dejected
Cursed and suppressed
They have risen
Across the wet cheeks
There were smiles
From now on
You will be the courage
To the many others

To the Trio at Olympics # P V Sindhu#Dipa Karmakar#Sakshi Mallik.... You did us proud.... And yes thank you to their families and coaches for moulding them to reach for the skies....

Always

Darkness had enveloped my life
But you outshone the sunset
And, you became my sunshine.

My life had become troubled waters
I failed to balance and began to drown.
And there, you came as my lifeline.

I could no more see any colours,
I stood staring into barrenness,
And you came up as a rainbow.

Like a spring in a dessert,
Like stars in the night sky,
So have you been in my life.

Its "You" who define my happiness.
And so, i wish,
Through every tide in life,
I just want you, to hold my hand.
Always!!!...

November Entry

A steaming cup of tea in one hand and a newspaper in  the other.This is my idea of a bright morning start.And as i chew on the morning news, there is always one page i detest.The obituary column.But today ,one picture up there forces me to read the article.Not a very interesting news.It's about a teenage girl's suicide.Sigh!!!!....I hate that word suicide.How can people even think of hurting themselves so badly??People battle for lives in hospitals.And here are others ,who destroy God given gift of life?Is shutting away their existence the only solution to their problems??....

In life everyone has problems.Even a rich man who has a lot of wealth would have worries about health, mental peace etc. And so does a common man have, his share of problems.But that doesn't land any of them at the one stop end- suicide.They fight, they sweat and try to beat the obstacles in their path.And thus they succeed.

In life, we all make some common mistakes.The main thing being, building expectations. We build expectations on people.You blindly trust that you understand others well or they understand you well.You expect them to pull you out of crisis.And when it all fails, you lose the strength to move ahead in life.

We must always realize some basic things in life:

*Do not expect someone else to pull you out of a situation.It's only you who can do that.It's your life.None care about your life as much as you do.

*Never expect someone else to understand you completely or protect you.

Only you can read your inner thoughts,fears,understand your every move and speech.So don't be let down by others criticism.Just hang in there and fight.

*As  much as only you can understand your inner self, you can never understand someone else completely.You cannot predict others,their thoughts and action.We all are different individuals and our thought processes and comforts vary.So do not judge.Be patient and kind.

Sometimes we believe life is only about love and trust.And when trust breaks we break.But there is much more to life.

Life is about being able to stand up on your own feet, deciding for yourself, making yourself heard and lighting smiles along your path.

Scribblings From Heart -{4}

Life is not a straight road journey.
It's not  melodious as a nightingale's song,
It's not like the tales of a fairy.

For it's a journey, through a bumpy road.
You may pass through a dessert or meadow,
A broad highway or narrow jungle road,

You may stumble and fall.
Be pricked, beaten or torn apart
The gale may hit you hard,
The paths may not be what we dreamt,
But you ought to accept it.
Be Brave and hold on till the last.

Life is a game.
A game where every move counts.
A single move enough to decide,
Whether you lose or triumph.

So, brace yourself, my friend.
And never forget the values
Faith,Humility,Perseverance
Through your every stride.
