Sweet, Sweet Child of Mine...

Sweet, sweet child of mine-

I promise you love and laughter
but specks of ache and gloom.
I promise you dreams and rainbow
but dashes of rains and storm.

You will rock gently in soothing arms
but sometimes stray,feel cast away.
You will find your true love
but sometimes cry out loud.

You will feel invincible
but sometimes, stark invisible.
You will cherish subsistence
but sometimes curse, whole of existence.

This life is spring and summer
but sprinkled with rains and winter.
This life is pure wonder
but sometimes pitiful blunder.

You will taste tears of ecstasy
but sometimes those of woe.
So tread gently my love-
For life is not black or white
nor is it grey or blue.

It is whatever you can see,
It is whatever you can feel.
It is for you to live,
The strands are yours to weave!

This is a journey en masse
but also a quest forlorn.
Take care my child
For you are never truly alone.

For you are only a child
For now and forever.
And carry with you
Not the tempest, but the rainbow!


And come back to me dear,
As my sweet, sweet child.

The Secret to Perfect Love!

It's not uncommon to hear someone gleam with pride when they describe their lover's or partner's undivided love for them- all the love personalized and customized just for a person- sounds tempting, doesn't it?

Most of us try consciously or subconsciously to bottle up all the love in a person's heart so that we mean the world to that someone special- so that we are the only visible thing on the Universe to them-for undivided attention and acceptance- Would our position in that heart be compromised if we give the space to accommodate anything else if not somebody else?

We fall in love with someone and the moment we realize we have owned our love- we take out all our secret and not so secret tools to sculpt them- to claim their copyright rules and start seeing the infinite number of changes required to make them perfect- to paint our perfect picture!
But at the end of all that work- we will be surprised at the startling result.

Now, let's see- whose love has been praised, admired and dreamed of the most,missed the most, since times unknown- the ultimate meaning, the towering image of divine love-no doubt- a mother's love-pure,divine,undiluted- UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!

Let's try and analyze why?- Could it be that a mother loves her child no matter what, that to her her child is always perfect as it is, that she is someone whom you can always run back to and you know that her doors will never be shut to you- because you know you can pursue your dreams and that her love will not be wavered- that it glows not like a candle, but like the sun!
Eternal and warm...

We often believe that if we let them pursue their dreams- we might lose our significance, that if they love their family and friends more-the love reserved for us may be compromised, that even the newspaper or a book can be a competition!So knowingly or unknowingly we limit their circle of love and dreams- till finally only we exist- but by then we would have extinguished the very glow we fell in love with in the first place and wonder what went wrong.

So, let's try this instead- let's try to help evolve a more loving person- someone who can still talk to their family and friends with as much love and enthusiasm as they please without apprehension, someone who can still pursue dreams- someone who wants you in his/her dreams along with the so many wonders of life. Let us not close their eyes, but open them to the joyous world- let us help them be more and more loving and compassionate and let us help them be a happier, truly luckier, compassionate person and encourage them to feel the radiance and joy flowing through their veins and let us join them in that pure joy of basking love- love flowing from every cell of their being!-There is enough love in a person for the whole Universe to rejoice...
The more you let them love, the more they can truly discover your love.



So, let's try not to cage that infinite love.
Let them free and fly along with them into that magical land,dreams soaring, hearts pounding,the wind in your lovely face !

'Let us not fall, but rise in love!'

7 Reasons why I'm Still Daddy's Little Girl

* Ever since my 0'th birthday, knowing that someone is waiting to wish me first.

* That even today, when I fall sick, I expect him beside my bed- worried and anxious- anytime my eyes open.

* The way he wishes and encourages me before every venture, as if it were my first kinder garden test.

* The way he still animatedly describes how he would feel when I finally become an I.A.S (Civil service) Officer !

* Because to someone, I'm one of the two most beautiful babies to have ever been born.

* When I travel ,knowing that someone is counting seconds to hear that I reached safe.

* To know that, no matter what I say or do , there is someone to whom I'm still a little girl , a little girl to be cared and loved.

A child held close to heart...

Thank You Daddy, for reminding I'm one of the Blessed !

Positive Thinking -Is It Possible-Really???

I have read a lot on positive thinking and its miracles.Yes,it does help. But personally for me it is not a one-time cure. Sometimes,things are so messed up that when you try hard to find the silver lining, you feel like you are losing your mind.

What I am saying is that if you can't figure it out then and there ,its OK. Give it sometime. Let it sink. But don't let your heart and hopes sink with it too. Know that there will be a new sunrise and let the sun set today ,and as you watch it set from a place outside you ,you can feel the calm and soothing silence and let that gentle warmth heal you.

I do not mean to imply that positive attitude is a sham-it is a wonderful way to live-what i feel is that a hundred percent energy level may not be possible everyday relax --don't strain your heart to kick- start every time. OK, let us put it this way- you are taking your morning jog and trip into a ditch unexpectedly-you take a moment to grasp the fact and when you try and get up it might hurt a bit ,and you might have to slow down a bit before you gear up again.The pain may take some time to heal, but it will heal or you have to help it heal and when you are ready, go for that jog and feel the fresh breeze stroke your cheek again...

So think positively ,

Let positive thinking help you live,don't live to think positively!

Just a random thought......

Today, I break free!

Today, I break free!
Today,I reign free.
No longer am I veiled;
No longer will I fail.

From chains that bled my heart,
From stains that scarred my heart-
Into this desert unknown
Unending, untamed, unknown.

I am free of that curse-
That dirty, unholy curse.
From hands that were to hold me,
From hands that were to guide me.

Let the scorching Sun devour me;
Let it cleanse my soul.
Let the scorching thirst savour me;
Let it relinquish my shame.

Today 'I' shall die-
But its today that I live.
Today I shall cry
But its today that I leave-
To realms yet unseen
Realms with dreams profound!

Today, I break free
Yes, today I will break free!

My Reflection

Behold!Is it not my reflection?
But crafted with such perfection!
I see me in her eyes,
How strange,we lead different lives.

She seized me when i was three,
From then,i could'nt break free.
She tells me there's a rainbow-
when my spirits are down and low.
She makes me want to smile-
when life does'nt seem worthwhile.

My soul is merged with hers,
My life incomplete without her.
To me -she is my daughter,
My spring-its her laughter!

I love you-my darling,my angel,
My sweet little loving angel.
No words can describe ,how much i love you-
So all i can say is-I love you,I love you,I love you!
