You’re beautiful! It’s True :)

You are not your age, Nor the size of clothes you wear, You are not a weight, Or the colour of your hair. You are not your name, Or the dimples in your cheeks, You are all the books you read, And all the words you speak. You are your croaky morning voice, And the smiles you try to hide, You’re the sweetness in your laughter, And every tear you’ve cried. You’re the songs you sing so loudly, When you know you’re all alone, You’re the places that you’ve been to, And the one that you call home. You’re the things that you believe in, And the people that you love, You’re the photos in your bedroom, And the future you dream of. You’re made of so much beauty, But it seems that you forgot, When you decided that you were defined, By all the things you’re not.

There were times I have felt low for the weight I weigh, may be for the color of my skin or my … Read more

what if things are uncertain?

Uncertain? Really? Well, sometimes I feel math is so much simpler and easier, it also probably is cos I really like math. But things were so simple there, the outcome was always a known one. I mean 1+1 was always 2, there was never an aberration, nothing ever changed. It was a certain outcome. Fortunately … Read more

what if it was all temporary

I have often wondered about this as I toss the question in and out. I think sometimes we give so much of importance to future, safety, security, etc etc etc that somewhere in the journey we forget about living in the present.

What if I’d never failed

I have often wondered this, rather I have fantasized about this. It is like having a magic power where everything I touch would be gold and I would never have to worry about anything, maybe I would have a range of BMWs in front of a huge mansion, fans everywhere I look and maybe even … Read more

Look for happiness

Negative results or failures if I may rate them as are unnerving and disconcerting to say the least, And it so happens that it is quite easy to be caught up in things. Ever wonder that you are in a certain mood and everything around starts seeming the same – whether the positive or the … Read more
