A desire to achieve, a desire to conquer...
A wish to laugh and smile all along;
A desire that ties you to a grasping world
To which your soul does not belong.
Our world, our life, our thoughts, our wishes....they all concentrically move around our desires. There is always a "longing"...a wish...a need...which is constantly working as an invisible force to separate us from our soul. Our desires are thus the devils which solely focus on disconnecting our thoughts and our deeds from the real "us" thats lying deep within ourselves. The gradually changing world endeavours to arouse in us a materialistic approach towards the lives we are "living"...
A desire to achieve the best, a desire to win, a desire to be admired, a desire to be content, a desire to be loved...and this is how we fail to realise how these desires are overpowering our innocent dreams, our untainted thoughts and our free soul...
I close my eyes to avoid the truth
I divert my thoughts to accomplish my desire...
But sometimes the flame of passion and zeal
Alters into an uncontrollable fire...
Its all in my hands,
Its all in my heart...
The real fiend thats tearing my soul apart...
I do not want my desires to bind me to a life that was never mine...I do not want my wishes to capture me in a frame that would change my soul...
To "desire" is important...because our desires when combined with a positive spirit tend to bring in our lives a pleasure filled with purity...the smiles that can wipe away the tears all around. I know life is not spun around these smiles and tears, desires and sacrifices...but the life that God gave us is supposed to concentrate on the desire to "serve others"...these thoughts are deep, confusing, complicated, hard and may be even impractical but holding on to our real selves till the end is the most prominent challenge that life puts forth us and the people who believe in this turn out to be the real heroes because they make an effort to accomplish their desires without malice in their hearts and alteration in their souls...
It all depends on ur take on life, how u see life, what u want to make out of it, ur desires, the reason hidden behind them, the means you take to achieve them, ur beliefs, ur deeds, ur wisdom, ur heart and ur soul...
Desire to love without an expectation,
Desire to spread cheer and kindle the spirit within;
Desire to know urself better
And bring transparency in ur vision...
To desire is a natural trend
A way on the path to your goal,
What matters is how you shape ur desires
So that they work towards sanitizing your soul...

“There must be more to life than having everything”
This reflection struck me in an unusual way. If we all consider the present state of our lives, we are most likely to end up either smiling all the way or with tears in our eyes. Our present might seem either very complete or it might be oddly incomplete…in so many ways. Our feelings may lead us to an aura of happiness….happiness for being blessed….blessed for having wonderful friends, supportive parents, nice clothes, a bright future and everything that we could want from life…Or may be we might think about the misery of being what we are or living the life we are supposed to live….We might be swathed with grievances from the past, apprehension for the future, misunderstandings between the people we love. We might be depressed coz of hostility in the family, a decreasing success graph, losses…tears…loneliness
But for me
…”Life is beyond these smiles and tears”None of us would think about the little things, the little words, the little fun…which get together to adorn a long life. We think about the number of times we’ve been hurt; but what about the days when laughter was more essential than our bruises and blood? We think about the arguments and the roughness that they bring; but what about the days when friends, fun and games were beyond our ego.
That’s how I think about “childhood”… we learn the best lessons of life in the first few years of our existence….we learn how to overlook small matters and forgive loving friends…we learn how to share our toys and make others smile…we learn how to be “ourselves”….we learn how to believe in miracles, how to take pleasure in the drizzle, how to beam with innocence, how to love with care…
What really matters in life is for how long we manage to lighten up this spirit in our hearts.
Life is not merely about having the whole lot…Life is not always about feeling absolute and contented…But the journey of life is about knowing your own self; its about laughing in the rain, sleeping in a snug blanket, kissing an adorable puppy, enjoying the sturdy winters, eating those stupid candies, learning those little morals, bringing glee all around….spreading love and exuberance.
Life is not complete when you have everything, rather its blissful when you discover everything in whatever little you have…:-)

A smile...a dream...and a HOPE
Laughter...smiles....fun and hope. These few words define ME. Its always so beautiful when you live for the moment...when you laugh at the silliest jokes and smile at the simplest things...Its always so refreshing when you talk endlessly about some wonderful dreams...without knowing they would be a part of your life or not....But we never cease to dream...because dreams, aspirations, ambitions and the magnificence that they hold, mesmerize us and bring us into a different world...a different manifestation of life....which is filled with the aura which completes us....
When I smile and laugh, I feel an unusual kind of contentment...a satisfaction which is as fulfilling as a person dying of thirst would feel if he fortuitously finds WATER....
With the pace of life, the serenity of my voice, with the glint in my eyes...everything seems so COMPLETE...to everyone around.... But what about the hollow in my heart that has been tearing me apart since the time i realized how important dreaming is....Today as i write this blog, I want to touch the most sensitive feelings of every person who holds a misery behind his cheer...Life is the same for everyone...What matters is your perspective towards it...Some people know how to hide their innermost fears enveloped with their outer strength... while some people forget to comprehend how strong they really are...and they can hardly survive the pulls n pushes of this superficial world...
Some hearts can sing the songs of hope and delight even when their soul is drowning in tears....and that is where the difference comes.....THE SPIRIT OF LIVING!!!
Its tough...really tough to veil your depression by an appealing charisma, to cover your sorrow with the beauty of bliss...but believe me its tougher to live life without understanding how precious a SMILE is....
A smile is a reflection of the person you are...
A smile is the fulfillment of your hopes and dreams...
A smile holds you...strong and deep...
And makes life simpler...no matter how hard it seems....
A smile brings you closer to yourself each day...
It gives you the spirit to fight the despair....
It makes your dreams a part of your soul...
And brings a contentment which makes life fair....
:-)

DEATH... Literally death means "the end of life". When I write this blog, I gather all the courage in my heart and soul to express what I've been feeling.
Life is limited. I've always taken life for granted.....Never gave a thought to the fact that we all will abandon this world someday. Someday our life will lose its pace. Someday our breaths will take a halt. Someday all the dreams, the plans, the cheer would break all of a sudden...and life won't be "life" anymore...
I'll never forget those eyes, that excitement, the charm and the dreams that her heart held... I'll never forget those steps where we sat someday to talk about...DEATH. I'll never forget the comfort she always gave me...the care, the love, the concern she had for me....I'll never forget those endless discussions we had about every feeling, every hope, every smile, every tear and every part of life...
When the rain drops touch me...when the stars twinkle...when the sun beams...I just try to feel her presence in every iota of nature....may be because I can't accept that she has left me....because I know that she never wanted to go. She always loved whatever i wrote...and today when I write this for her, I can't stop the tears that wet my face...the tears that are still waiting for her to come and wipe them off...
After she left this world....DEATH seems to be something different altogether....I know death can't be something that's harsh or cruel...Death can't be darkness in light...Death can't be despair and grief...Death can't be insensitive and numb....Death can't be an END because she holds a light...a smile...a fearless and beautiful aura...and I know that wherever she is must be a place of serenity, purity, love and "LIFE".... A life better and more absolute than anyone can imagine...
"You'll always be there in my heart...I know I'll always miss you badly but... I've been trying to feel you and I know you're there...looking at me...smiling and trying to tell me that you're happy....and life is beautiful:-) "
I pray for your soul
For the serenity you hold,
I pray to find your presence
In the warmth and in the cold.
Thanks for being a part of my life
for your love and friendship too;
The only thing I wanna tell you is
"I REALLY REALLY MISS YOU"....

( Before I begin posting this blog....I just wanna tell everyone that right now i am not at all SAD....I wrote this blog long time back but never got a chance to post it....but today I wanna put it here....this blog is full of grief and losses but trust me ppl.....m not sad:-) )
After a very long time, I could gather the courage to sit down and write.... Whenever I write, I don't think a lot bcoz things come straight from my heart....donno why this time am thinking....I dont want to talk a lot about the tears, the losses, the sadness, the loneliness, the regrets, the helplessness.....that i encountered in the last few days...but the irony is that I can't even talk about genuine happiness bcoz even that has been missing. The moon and the stars in the night sky glitter like before but I can't see them smiling. The rays of teh sun still give me light but I can't feel their warmth. The soft and cool breeze still touches my face but I cant hear its whispers. The vast blue sky still makes me smile but I can't see GOD.
I'm flowing with the sea
I'm walking with the ways;
I'm smiling with the sky
And m passing these days..
But I feel something is missing
In the heat or in the frost;
And then I suddenly realize
That its me whom I've lost
I never wanted to lose myself and even today am trying to hold on to my real self really tight...but some parts have gone and the others are trying to break through....
Our desires, or dreams and our smiles don't touch us so easily because we need to realize their importance. This is because if we get all that we want so easily, then we'll lose ourselves even faster...Life has shown me something that very few people understand. I know there are thousands of ppl who are suffering and who are in pain...But I also know that everyone who feels pain is a very beautiful person...Every tear, every grief, every despair adds a beauty, a purity and a life in our real selves....
And that is why I accept the misery...n i hope that I'll touch the horizon...and I'll smile because someday I'LL FIND MYSELF AGAIN!!!
Though losses and tears broke me someday
But I still stood up to walk,
Every pain made me know who I am
And I could hear my soul talk...
Times that are tough are making me strong
I'm learning to dance in the rain,
And I know The sun will shine with hope
And I'll find myself again!!!

Now again i ve got a lot of spare time....time to think...to dream...to cry...to laugh n but ofcourse...to WRITE. I actually donno what should i write today. I can't recollect stuff that has happened after i wrote my last blog. There are still a number of things untold... a number of feelings not felt....and a number of tears untouched....Today the thoughts tht are crossing my mind compel me to think about HAPPINESS....I sometimes wonder about the wonders of being happy....n yeah i know that no one in this world is genuinely happy.....we all don't know WHY??? May be coz thr are very few people who understand about the depths of their lives....Everyone is busy, everyone has goals to accomplish, accolades to win.... but there is something that i diminishing with what we call "life"....This something is LOVE...I still can't see people coming up with a definition for love.....
A few days back i happened to read a book called "The Zahir" by Paulo Coelho.... The writer's words transformed the definition of love in my eyes...n i realised something that hasn't been thought upon by a whole lot of people....i realised that LOVE is not a part of life....but life is a part of love.... We can harness the energy of the winds, the seas, the sun...But the day we harness the energy of love, that will be as important as the discovery of a new life.....Love is not about having an obsession for a person who has a charming smile...or beautiful eyes....or awesome looks.....NOOOO Love can't be so limited....love is as vast as the blue sky...love teaches us to feel that everything has a beauty behind it....love is everything that speaks to u not through words...but through feelings.....love teaches u what it means to follow ur heart....Love is a pain filled with pleasure....Love always brings in freshness...an energy that purifies one's soul and brings to us a kind of serenity never experienced before......Love is nothing n at the same time....LOVE IS EVERYTHING......
I jus know that happiness can be felt when u know ur soul...when u know ur heart...n when u feel love....because love has no bounds...love is free....free to touch ur heart....free to make u smile....n free to give u a new life....life that is filled with beauty....life that is filled with the true meaning of happiness....
Close ur eyes n feel the energy of love....don't run after love to catch it in ur fist....but let love follow u....let love be free....n let love conquer ur heart...because love needs u....n don't forget....U NEED LOVE TOO.....:-)
