Hold On!

He took the knife
And ended it all
Ended all he couldn’t bear
For hope of all he yearned…

And there he reached God’s gate
His life’s work half done,
His song half finished,
His book with pages yet to turn.

And God yelled at him “You fool
This isn’t yet done
Turn those pages you yet not see
I gave you what you yearned!”

It only took Me longer
Because you wouldn’t open your eyes
It only took Me longer
Because you wouldn’t open your heart

If only you had accepted my miracle
You would have known
Though it didn’t look like what you wanted
It was much more than what you yearned!

एक आस

हर ठूँठे पेड़ में
हर टूटे सपने में
इक आस है

भले हो वह ठूँठा अब,
पतझड़ भले ही हो जीता
पर बसंत इ पहली किरण...
उसके आने का सन्देश
नवीन पत्तों को जन्म देकर
सबसे पहले वही देगा
जो आज खड़ा है ठूँठा!

भले ही वह टूटा अब,
निराशा भले हो जीती
पर आशा की पहली किरण...
उसके आने का सन्देश
फिर से नवीन जन्म लेकर
सबसे पहले वही देगा
जो आज है टूटा!

The Moment of Truth

The moment of truth of falling in love is one of the most special ones in one's life. Here's to that moment of truth....that is special because:

You realise that that person is more important to you than anyone else and you care for that person more than anyone else you care for, and sometimes even more than yourself.

There is this feeling of knowing something about that person that no one else knows..may be that has been discovered through your togetherness..and that feeling that you understand and know that person better than anyone else.

The agony of being away from that person and not being able to think of anyone else... the ecstasy of forgetting all else when you are with that person.

The butterflies in your stomach when seeing that person smile and the feeling of knowing that you are the reason for the smile.

The first person who comes to your mind when you want to share some news...good or bad....

You just know that the person will pick up your call whenever you call, however busy they may be. And that you can talk to that person for hours about anything and everything under the sun and not feel tired or bored......

Here's to the moment that is wonderfully amazingly special and to the hope that everyone finds that moment of truth in their lives......

Grabbing Opportunities

Most of us are afraid to accept somethings that life throws at us...I feel if life gives us an opportunity we should grab it with both hands....

If it works out then great, we find something stable in our lives.

If it doesn't work out, you can polish it into a learning.

You stand to gain both ways......so take the chance! Toss a coin!!!

Blessings

Walking through the meadows,
Hand in hand
Walking on the rocky roads
Still hand in hand...

Simple prayers said,
Great blessings received

Laughing through the god times
Hand in hand
Singing through the tough ones
Still hand in hand...

Simple prayers said,
Great blessings received

Walking through the sunshine,
Hand in hand
Dancing through the rains
Still hand in hand

Simplest prayers said,
Greatest blessings received.

Education Today Uncovered!

Here's a cartoon from phdcomics.com that sums up the education system today brilliantly:

Things I learnt the Hard Way

Well, in life you can’t always depend on someone’s experiences, though they are a good form of vicarious learning. So here’s to a few things I have learnt the hard way:

Multi tasking while having a coffee cup in one hand and wearing a white t-shirt can be disastrous to the t-shirt.

When on a trip, enjoy the journey because the journey is always as much fun as the destination (unless you have a travel sick companion)

We only have a few seconds to make the first impression, and we need to make the best use of it!

Its pointless to do good work in the office unless you make it visible. You won’t get what you deserve otherwise.

Take time to go through your old letters, books, cards, and gifts. Time changes, memories don’t! You will always end up feeling better.

Believe that you deserve the best, and you will get it.

Always use the right words if you want to be understood right!

Trust your instincts (especially if you are a women…for men I really can’t say).

Always be your best friend and your worst critic. Don’t choose to be one of the two, you’ll either get too full of yourself, or hate yourself!

Most of the things we worry about too much, do not matter in the long run.
