Words, Silence & Life ...

falling short of words is but natural .. 

when we wish to express the needful ... 

the beauty isn't in expressing it .. 

it lies in the "silent mode" that prevails...

for, the ones the words are meant for .. 

should come to know themselves what they are...

Understanding Things ...

ever thought what a certain decision you take can put you in ??

Just like Shakespeare's hero, Hamlet, pondered, "to be or not to be", at times, we are unable to decide on choices and end up feeling torn and confused.

Yes, this is true .. sometimes we do conclude upon certain things in a manner that we feel is right, at that very moment and after the thing's been implemented... we feel we could have done better .. or that the decision wasn't actually the right one at that moment .. 

In our everyday life, we take lots and lots of decisions .. on every subject.. about every moment .. about every step .. 

our whole world depends upon the decisions we take, the choices we make and thus ... we live solely on the path we choose ... 

Quite often we take decisions in haste ... and as i always say ... haste makes waste .. 

all we do in the process is lose our own self .. our loved ones ... our priorities ... 

our ambitions ... 

the things we might have foreseen, can turn blurred or can absolutely vanish out of our sight with one wrong untimely hasteful decision .. 

It is an advice ... or probably a experienced advice from a very revered scholar .. that once we think about taking a decision .. we should first put ourselves in the shoes of the ones who might be affected by our decision ... 

it isn't a hit and trial policy ... 

thee are sentiments ... there are beliefs .. and there are the divine interventions .. that are connected and intertwined so closely .. that breaking even a single knot from them can rip the whole thing apart .... 

consider a string of pearls ... until the knot is tightly and securely made, we live in a constant fear of dropping all the pearls ... but the one decision to check on the knot can make us feel relaxed and comfortable .. 

it's not just about taking the right decisions .. it is about believing in what choices we make ... 

if we choose wisely .. we won't lose a thing ... but how can we do that .... 

simple ... ask someone who has been in such a situation .. "for a ready made and experienced advice" .. or ... ponder on what pros and cons it can have ... 

One Small Decision ... And A Lifetime To Either Smile ... Or Cry ... 

Think About It ... 

When It All Ends ...

once upon a time there was a child ... humble, meek and a little shy ..
this world seemed so little to bother him .. he lived each day.. on a
daily basis ..
life was magical for him ... because he cared so little ... so little
about it ..

"pay no heed to the things that might bother you and those things
would never bother you at all.. "
this was the motto he had in mind .. and yes .. he was right .. unique
in his own ways ..

one day he realised that the world was a beautiful place ... the
worldly things suddenly seemed to look fascinating for him ..
he was falling for something ,... something he had never ever felt he would ...

it's hard to believe in the abstract when we see the material is,
otherwise, beautiful ...
the realisations he had were incredible and yet he was from their reach..
he kept on visiting religious places, trying to find the right
spirit, the right path .. that could lead him to them ..
he tripped, he fell .. and yet he continued .. the journey .. all by
himself .. all alone ... in search of that one single power ..
in whose hands rests the world .. and to request him to grant him his wish ....

a handful of dreams, a bouquet full of wishes .. that's all he
possessed ... and those were all he wanted to see them turn to reality
..
he was left alone .. when he needed someone to hold him .. he was
trampled over when he wished to walk along ..

he was chosen when all doors were closed ... and he was trapped behind
one when the doors re-opened ..

but there was one good thing in this guy .. and that was .. his Lord
never left him alone ...
he could feel His presence .. whenever he saw solitude ... whenever
his eyes were moist ... and whenever the world turned it's back
towards him..

he kept going .. on and on .. wishing for something ..a promise he had
made .. that he had taken an oath ..
his job was to reach there .. along ... holding that hand ... that
hand he had promised to hold ..

he was trying to find ways to keep holding on ... revealing himself
slowly and steadily ..
cautious enough not to vomit out everything at once ...
he took time ... time enough to reach there ...


prayers ... prayers ... and prayers ...
those were all he had ... and he knew they would bear fruit ...
fruit ... not for him ... but for the one he had been doing it for ..

real treasure lies in what is done but not known ...
so abstract ... yet so real ..

but .....
he had to end it all .. keep away from that life.. . just to keep that
smile alive ...
just for the "sake of god" .... just for keeping that life safe..
which was once his only priority ..


Life -- a slit piece of cloth ...
