A day of realization

There are ups and downs,
But I am sure that will be no frowns
Life will at the end of the day, for all your hard work, will bring you the crown..

You will be tested, you will be pushed,
You need to keep your stand and be hooked,
Let there be healthy competition, let there be a healthy fight,
Because only when its this tight, will you take the flight..

When you go up, do look down,
keep a foot on the ground..
let the distance never take you too far,
Because for the people you love and who love you, you never want to take that car.

It is your pride,
it is because of your long stride..

Be happy and remember him for what he has given you,
Coz he who has the power to give, has the power to take from you...

Make mistakes, they'll make you learn,
But repeating them is going to cause you a burn.
I may not have been fair to you,
Believe me though, I never wanted to do that to you.

I have to face it and I say I have to be strong,
But for this loss, I've been stupid and sense less to say the least of all.
I hope and pray that you find love,
You truly deserve to have it all.

Waiting for the sunrise.. The sun to shine..
A ray of hope to fall on the face.. To enter a different space..
No nights and only days..
The sunshine, the rays.. Looking forward to a new phase.. The smile stays..
Adventurous is the journey.. This journey called Life..
A journey that began as an innocent little child, going on to be a ride very wild.. Bringing all the emotions alive, this journey is very enticing to survive..
The morning comes and there starts the chase.. The mind in a haze, looking at a lot of different ways but don't know what it exactly says..
The night arrives possessed by darkness.. Thoughts full of stress, summarized by all the mess.. A journey to assess, the soul fears loneliness..
Surviving the journey through this madness and craze, hoping that the smile stays..
Waiting for the sunrise.. The sun to shine..
A ray of hope to fall on the face.. To enter a different space..
No nights and only days.. The sunshine, the rays.. Looking forward to a new phase.. The smile stays..

HOPE!!

There's a hope for a tomorrow.

When we sleep every night, we don't know if we will wake up tomorrow but we still have a huge list of things that we want god to give us. This is hope!

I guess, we hope through every smile, every good gesture.. And every bad moment, every clash becomes a discouraging factor. It all depends on what has a stronger standing on a certain day. We all see bad times and good times. Some glorify the good times and some crib too long about the bad times that they miss out on the good ones.. No one really wants to be cribbing for too long that people take that for a permanent state. But where does the positivity run from?? Who has the key to that door behind which its all hidden????

Its within each person. You can strive harder to meet your own expectations.

Another situation that comes to my mind while I write this is from a recent conversation I had with a very dear friend.
'Once college is over, how do you really maintain that same bond with close ones and how does one really keep the spirit kicking?'.
Well, I just feel its the bond that strengthens with time if you nourish it... Obviously, life will take many turns and not everything will go your way, but its the mind game and you really need to win..

I really hope!

Is it the real me and the real you???

That little smile,
Makes the world go around..
That little frown,
Makes the world come down..
Some say Red, some say Blue,
I say its only you...

Words and gestures may suggest
I'm there,
But even if they don't,
Let me tell you, I'm always there..

You look at things differently,
You always make me wonder,
If this is you, why aren't we together..
If this is me and this is you,
Why cant I see me with you...

What is it that stops me??
What is it that stops you???
Is it the real me and the real you?
Are we scared of the future?
Or are we pretentious of who we want to be?

Questions run through all the time,
And if there aren't any answers, it feels like a crime..
Is this the real me and the real you??

Cant we be ourselves and not think,
Who's the real me and who's the real you..
Lets live every moment and not let it go...
Probably, we'll know in this story, the real me and the real you...

Its a Climb...

A song that touched me... A line that means more than a million words sometimes...

We all struggle at some point or the other in life, but its more about how well we come out of it... How strong do we become after that.

At times we can make it there by ourselves and sometimes we need some support. Support from loved ones... Friends, Family and those special people..

Work - Professional life, Love - Personal life... Its all a climb... Need to find the right opportunity and the right people for both to create a balance...

Ever believed in what they say, 'It will happen when its meant to happen!' Its a way of keeping hope.. Its a way of calming yourself to say, if not this one, the next one... Or sometimes, its just a way to make you try harder..

I hope that we all keep our hopes high waiting for the right ones... Be it a job or be it a person or be it a particular time we are waiting for in our lives..
And ya, always give it a thought before you make a decision.. Sometimes when you think you don't want something, you think so because you are not really sure about the future... It could also be a fright of being turned down due to the other person's expectations... Or it could be the fact that you think you can do better.,. But as I said, always worth a try... You never know where it will take you.. Show the right gestures...

Leaving it there with a ray of hope and positivity, Good Luck people...

Cheers!

Happiness in Small things

Have you ever imagined why we look for more when we already have something? Its the delusion that we deserve better. Sometimes its right, but a lot of times we don't look at what we already have...

A blind couple holding hands and laughing while walking on the pathway, making a very unlikely but interesting conversation with strangers on the tube, feeling shit a while back and some sunlight changing your whole perspective... These are small things that make one happy or at least lets say makes them feel positive...

Probably in todays world we see majority of the people lost in their own worries of life, but think about that one small thing that you do for someone that makes you feel good about yourself. Doesn't it give some meaning to who you really are?? I think it really does... It saves you from running all the time in this materialistic world and keeps you still as a emotional person... A human because of your heart..

I assume that little bit of caring, that little bit of love is all that we all are longing for... It sometimes makes us a complete different person towards a few people.. Here, I don't mean love in only one sense... It could be 2 best friends, a brother-sister anything.... Its for that sense of belonging..

We should all treasure those small joys that bring up a smile on our face months and years later when we see things or even remember them to just know that we were stupid, but those were the dayss.... THE DAYS...

For now, signing off with the thought, make those small wonderful moments everlasting ones... Let them bring that tear of joy or just a walk you through the golden memory lane....

Adios

Running Thoughts - 1

Nearly a week into the new year and it does not seem that its any bad. While snow covers the city of London, I am hoping that at least the tubes and transport don't shut.

The first few days were quiet and probably my resolutions had to be challenged straight away.
Being on time! 4th January - Having decided to meet a friend to get some of her work done, I was on my way to be there on time. But on that day, all the buses, all the tubes and trains were not in my favor. I was about 10 minutes late and her aggressiveness made me a bit defence, but as soon as I realised that, I apologised to her to end it there.

This makes me wonder, Am I not on time for personal commitments ONLY or is this a way I'm trying to cover up saying that I'm on time for work but I get late when it comes to my personal appointments. Why do people get so defensive as soon as a eye brow is raised on them? It is a mistake and learn to accept it. I did this time which took a lot of courage, self control and a hit to the ego. But its good in the long run. Hence forth at least I know how to handle situations (Not that I want to be in a similar one again).

Well, admitting the fact, I was late!This just means I need to try harder and make it happen!

Adios.
