The lost Friend

My dreams are close to my heart, for which I shall forever be indebted to my dreams. The long road that I walked had nobody, just me and my friend. Together we
Explored the life, that otherwise would has consisted of me. My friend guided me through the difficult paths, showed me light where there was only dark. I found solace in my thoughts that one day somebody would care would bother to ask me, question me, fight with me, fight for me. With time grew the distance, between me and my friend, I sought companionship with people, something that I would repent. Because nobody understood me better that my friend, he understood my pain and helped me deal with it. As years flew by, the dissatisfaction increased by leaps and bounds, till I knew not what I wanted. The dawn came by, but I stayed in my room. True friends never leave your side, my friend was true. The moment I called for him, he came. Together we spent the entire day together, me, and my friend, loneliness.

The little drops of rain.

Every drop of rain that falls has a purpose, well have you ever thought of small things in life that though small can have a large effect on you. There are things in life that we tend to ignore, but it is these things that form a mighty reason for our living. So acknowledging these things will give us an insight into the larger picture, to the world that we so wish to conquer, the world we live in. Building of our life is like building of our home, where what we place in each and every corner affects the aesthetics of the home. The small vase in the corner, the key holder on the wall matter to the décor of the home. Imagine the house with the soothing colour combination, of blue and white and a jutting red vase in the corner can spoil the whole feel. Thus while building one’s world it is necessary that everything should be placed appropriately and care for or it might just loose its shine.

The shooting star

Amazed by something, that dies to fulfill your wish. I am too, the emotion of selflessness. The shooting star stands for that, in my eyes. Dropping down from the sky to the earth it gives you something that you want. Is the emotion of selflessness otherwise non-existent? Are all bonds in our life born out of an ulterior motive?

I was walking through the road, one day that, I saw a large number of bees lying dead….my eye wandered up to notice the bee hive. It made me think about the reason for this mass destruction. How did so many of them die at one go…? My heart ached for the lives that were taken away. A leaf falling down, spoke to me, illusion, you may say but for me those words were profound and told me a lot about selflessness…those bees that died sacrificed their lives to protect the hive, the wind was too strong, the solution was only one. They gave up their existence for something that was bigger than life, love, relations and bonds…they gave their life for the reason , the meaning of life…meaning that you achieve when you live or die for others.

THE ROCKING CHAIR

In the corner of her room sat the rocking chair, on which I remember my grandmother sitting a telling us folktales, stories would effectively transport us to a land of dreams, the next stop being undisturbed sleep.

The chair, when I was small, signified just a place where my grandmother would sit. Today it holds a deeper meaning for me…when I look at the chair not it is as if the motion of the chair, to and fro, is, what is, life. The transportation from one world to another and back, from expectations to achievement to back, from happiness to sorrow to back, from demand and possession to back, from night and day to back ,from end to beginning to end….our life just swings us through the same thing…to and fro. But still when I sit on that chair with all these thoughts clouding my mind, I fall into a dreamless sleep…this to and fro motion is where we find it all.

I never even bother to give a second thought to buying a place that I could call my own…ask me why and my honest reply would be that it never crossed my mind, or even if it did I never paid any heed. The obvious question would be “Then why now?’ .This summer I went to best friends country home. The home that he grew up in…the home that held memories so dear to his hearts…the windows that gave him the glimpse of the world, the walls that gave him security, the ceilings that reflected his thoughts, the kitchen that spoken of unsaid words, the garden that gave him solace…the home that made him the man he is today.
