ode to time

time transforms an ugly caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly
time moulds an impish boy into a responsible man
time turns a damsel to an unstable old lady
time takes out from a tiny seed, a huge tree
time wipes tears and shatters fears
time heals the wounds that fate brings
time is the bridge between dreams and reality
time tags you to cares, and time relieves you of pains
time complicates and simplifies
time ticks your life at the pace of a day per 24 hrs, no matter whether u weep, wail or smile
time shows that life goes on, come what may
time dictates your stay
time creates desire and destroys it
time makes anything and anyone good or bad
wise ones understand this, from dust they come, unto dust they go, and make the most of their sojourn in time
they know, time n tide wait for none
n that time waste is life waste

Kaalaya namaha, kaalaateetaya namaha!!!

My Love.....

I was sitting on a bench looking for love....

out came a man, full of zeal, passion and energy
his love rushed, gushed, pushed and...... perished!

then came another, full of wit, charm and grace
his love sparkled, glittered, dazzled and... dulled!

another rolled in, full of sincerity, sweetness and straightforwardness
his love assumed, assured, accomodated and.... lulled!

I was still sitting there, on the bench, while each passing love left me wiser
there was the dance of love in varied colors and costumes that I witnessed,
so elusive, mysteriously slipped out of my hands everytime I reached for it to grasp,
or just frightened to suffocate me

then I sat still, continued to gaze, and asked my heart where it is- a love that energises, soothes, brightens, nourishes, stays and sustains.
awaiting an answer, I looked into my own heart
and voila! there it is!
has played hide and seek mischeivously, by projecting itself on the canvas in different vestures
it touched me with tenderness n stroked me with strength n assured me of its eternity
it springed from a source untraceable, sought channels to spread out
and reunite with itself, cased in the hearts of all around me!

Let go, Let god!

let go of the worry about things you cannot change, for worry alone does not change anything
let go of the fear of the unknown, for what we know is far too less
let go of resistance to pain and affinity to pleasure, like pain, pleasure also comes uninvited, let them not dictate ur decisions
let go of attachment to action and inaction, js do it (or dont do it)
let go of the negativity that holds u back, a wonderful world and a wonderful life is ahead!



Let god manifest through your actions as perfection
let god rule your life and enrich ur heart
let god shine through your character and illumine your heart
let god smile through you and spread love
let god be your strength, let not desperation for anything cloud your vision of god!

Be yourself, be happyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
