It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals,they seem so absurd and impracical.yet i cling to them because i still believe,inspite of everything,that people are truly good at heart...Anne frank

A SUDDEN CHANGE OF WORDS

how did are turn into were
and am turn into was
all within a few seconds
i think i'm going to need a few minutes to digest it all
because even though you turned the switch
with no problem it seems
when the lights went off for me i
was caught off balance and now i need some time
to adjust to this uneven equilibrium
as i feel my way across this dark room
to find the switch i need to flip
so that i can shed some light and understand this
verb change
that so easily flowed from your lips
and reached me unexpectedly like a disease
i guess i'm a little slow
give me a few seconds
because i'm still numb
and i feel torn.

EVERY HARDSHIP CREATES A STRONG WOMAN

I wonder how many ladies out there think:
“Its just so hard to be a woman”
For sure when a woman takes a step in life:
“ The journey is not furnished with a carpet of roses ”
Come to think of it
“Yes its hard to be a woman,
every hardship makes me a strong woman”
A Woman Like Me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have the will,
Without wings
To touch the sky
Enabling me to reach that high
I have no definition for defeat
My aspiration;
I’m set to seize that dream
A woman like me, will reach that far and many miles more..
Maybe, you will find tears
Held in my eyes
Or falling like river
On a terrain of my face
A momentum relief
Giving no answer to resolve the grief
I gather myself
In dignity I embrace
A woman like me,
Learned to stand beyond any calamity and defeat
MY THOUGHTS FLOW OUT TO ALL BEAUTIFUL KIND WOMEN ON IFF...NELLA,RACHELLE,SALONEE,SUNBEAM,RAINSTORM,SWEET SASSY,SRC,MEHAK,MYSTI,GOOD GIRL,YO SAM,LIZ,MERITAUBA,POOJA AND MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE CROSSED MY MIND MANY TIMES.THIS IS A POEM TO ALL OF YOU MY DEAR FRIENDS.ALL OF YOU SURELY REPRESENT WHATEVER I HAVE WRITTEN IN THIS POEM.
LOVE

MY FIRST POST...NO... MY FIRST POEM THIS YEAR
|
Jan 2, 2006 6:51 am

Its been a long time since,
I typed out a poem,
I thought about life,
And all its philosophies,
I tried motivating someone,
Expressing the best in me,
Or the real me,
Played scrabble,
Or watching a movie with the passion I used to,
Taking a walk all alone,
Listening to music at the same time,
Going to places full of greenery,
Talking to my brother,
Staying together with my doggie all alone,
In the little house,
Eating Ice-cream with my neighbour,
Or preparing tea for her and drinking it together,
Speaking about dreams,
Dreaming more.
Maybe, its been some time,
Since I listened to my heart,
Tired of wearing the masks,
To be good enough to make an impression,
Hiding so many thoughts,
As others do not think of them nothing more than words,
Now typing my frustration out,
Will I ever know where I want to be,
Will I ever know if I will get there.
Will I ever get the answers,
Here in my words?
love and wishes to everyone through my first poem of this year!

AN END TO THE YEAR 2005
|
Dec 29, 2005 4:59 am

2005 is gonna be history in a few days time. And before it reaches its official day to declare itself as the "past year" I would like to take this time to reflect maybe and speak up.
how has 2005 been for me?
It wasn't a smooth sailing year at all. It was a year where my heart got tested many times. Not only in the arena of my home and work but also in the arena of my own personality and presentation as a person. I believe there were more down days than up days to make up this whole year. But of course, i am not saying that anyone should pity me or start feeling sorry for me. But i believe that these little fall outs and pillow wetting sessions here and there have a reason to impact my life to a greater level. how?
*Its shaping my person to be a better person in personality etc.
*Its increasing me in my maturity level and opinions
*Its taking my outlook in life to a greater & more promising level.
*Its promising me good things with a "better me" for 2006. (well at least i hope to believe it)
It would be a lie if i were to tell you that i did not even think of giving up while walking through this jouney in life. Trust me, Many times. But somehow the thing about me i like, is the stubborness that dwells within. I am very stubborn about things i beleive in and see in my dreams and future. It just does not want to give up.And i love the feeling! And thats one of the thing besides God that probably helped me in my walk to victory and come out of this year with my head held just right. In short, I am intersted in my life and how i live it. I dont want to come out crushed but standing. Thats right in victory.  Do i sound serious suddenly? hahaha .well i ain't kidding.
i kept going with a new zeal every day because i started blogging ,exchanging opinions,writing about topics i loved,made many many new friends,interacted with many of them,advised them ,cried with them ,laughed and enjoyed with them .i suppose this was one of the colourful chapters in my life in the year 2005,apart from my visits to the colourful cities of british columbia in canada.oh how i love vancouver and victoria!
wishing all my sweet friends a very joyous and a happy new year and would love if most of them reflected their comments about the year thats slowly going to become AN YEAR OF THE PAST ...AN YEAR GONE BY ...AN YEAR TO REMEMBER THOSE VICTIMS WHO LOST THEIR LOVED ONES IN CALAMITIES....would love if most of you put in ur thoughts too !
love

CONNECTED THROUGH CYBER WORLD
|

Even though we are miles apart...
A computer screen connects our hearts.
It's very strange, when suddenly, your heart will realize,
It has been taken by someone with words before your eyes.
It is so strange to fall in love while staring at a screen,
With someone who is miles away that you have never seen.
You read about it in the news and see it on TV.
About an online love affair as real as it could be.
A couple fell in love online and one day finally meet.
The love was real for both of them and now they are complete.
You think this couldn't happen because it is all a game.
The people that you read about already were insane.
To meet a perfect stranger may be asking way too much,
The people who set up these dates have gone completely nuts.
You don't know...who your talking to, and can they be sincere?
And if you've never seen someone, how can they really care?
So then you play your silly games, while trying to have fun.
And if someone seems serious, you click your mouse and run.
Nobody can convince you that relationships can brew.
It's just a game that people play, because it's something new.
You talk to people everywhere, as if the world is right.
Then, when you're tired of talking, you just click them off at night.
But, one day you will meet someone, as strange as it may seem.
And they will make you feel as though you're living in a dream.
You will feel emotions until now were undisturbed.
And as they type upon your screen, you'll hang on every word.
You'll not understand it, how this person makes you feel,
But, emotions that you're feeling suddenly are real.
You will feel emotions and you'll think that it's insane.
How could words upon a screen cause happiness and pain?
When you realize the words are from a person's heart,
Then you understand, within your life, they have a part.
Relationships online is something you think you're above,
But, deep within your heart, you know you're falling deep in love.
Love is love, no matter what the world will try to say.
What difference does it matter, how the love has come your way?
True love...is so precious, and it is so rare to find,
How can you doubt some people find true love when they're online?
It may be hard to understand how you can love someone,
When all you wanted was to go online to have some fun.
You may think relationships online may not be smart.
But, I have met some people that I love with all my heart!!

FOR THE FIRST TIME

This is my inspiration on LOVE for those in a long marriage or
relationship maybe how to save it if possible.
Sometimes we dont look at
what is in front of us,we dont see our partner,we see only a stranger
across that table in the morning.
We look for love elsewhere,when
really its right in front of us,looking at us every morning,everyday.Sometimes we dont see past our noses,but if we really
look,we may be surprised,at what is there.
WE TEND to take each other
for granted,not seeing our partner anymore.I bet if we looked ,we would see love yet Unfortunately most of us dont,cause we have given up,but dont.. NOT yet.Take time to look at her/him and maybe what you
are looking for has been there all along,which is love.
This song is dedicated to those who are in that kind of relationship.I have been
there too,this is merely an experience of mine.
This song is called" For the first time"
Are those your eyes, is that your smile
I've been lookin at you forever
But i never saw you before
Are these your hands holdin' mine
Now i wonder how i could have been so blind
For the first time i am looking in your eyes
For the first time i'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much i see
When you're looking back at me
Now i understand why love is.......
Love is.....for the first time.....
Can this be real, can this be true
Am i the person i was this morning
And are you the same you
It's all so strange how can it be
All along this love was right in front of me
For the first time i'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much i see
When you're looking back at me
Now i understand why love is.......
Love is.....for the first time.....
Such a long time ago
I had given up on finding this emotion..ever again
But you live with me now
Yes i've found you some how
And i've never been so sure
And for the first time i am looking in your eyes
For the first time i'm seeing who you are
Can't believe how much i see
When you're looking back at me
Now i understand why love is.......
Love is.....for the first time.....
goodluck !!! TO ALL MY FRIENDS TRYING TO DISCOVER THEIR FIRST LOVE .

WISHING ALL MY FRIENDS A VERY VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS

TOMORROW IS CHRISTMAS EVE.A SPECIAL DAY PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD LOOK FORWARD TO .A DAY OF MERRY MAKING AND CHEER...A DAY TO ENJOY AND SHARE .
I WILL BE PARTICIPATING IN A PROGRAMME TO CELEBRATE THIS GREAT EVENT OF HAPPINESS WITH LITTLE HELPLESS CHILDREN OF THE NGO THAT I WORK FOR .WE SHALL HAVE LOTS OF GAMES,CULTURAL COMPETITIONS AND DISTRIBUTING GIFS THAT WE COLLECTED FROM THE PEOPLE FOR THESE SPECIAL CHILDREN.
im writing a small poem for all my friends .i hope you will all like it .its straight from my heart .
This is a long story
Retold in shorter words
About a person like you and me
Let’s call her Sara
For simplicity’s sake
It’s a fiction, of course
She grew and grew like all girls do
Unexceptional in every way
Schooled, dressed, fed; slept.
The blush of youth still on her cheek
She met a groovy fella
Who looked at her once and again
He winked and came and spoke to her
You can imagine how she felt
Liquid, totally swept away
What followed next isn’t for me to say
But I think you all can guess
It was a passionate fling
Only a fling for mister smart
He moved on right away
Leavin her with a bruised heart
Many a day has passed since then
She still goes on alone
Till the day she gets a call on the phone
Your daddy is ill and needs your help
Could you transfuse some blood?
A distraught mum pleads over the lines.
Course she will, so Sara thinks
And rushes there in her coat
Is jabbed by the tech for a sample
Some hours pass; the scene looks grim
The doc is in at last
Sara rises, but he shushes her off
Your blood’s gone bad he whispers aside
So that her mum won’t hear
Sara dimly hears HIV positive before she falls.
It was the drifter, musta been him
Oh how’d she been so blind?
She’d asked protection; he’d laughed her off
Now Sara lives in a cloud of doubt
Because her family don’t know
And she can’t take it no more
…
This is, obviously fiction. Crude, at that. But what I’m trying to say here is that AIDS victims are ordinary people just like us as well. Infected by people they trusted, in most instances. Why this policy of discrimination and whisperings about ‘loose morals’ then?
let the spirit of christmas be with all of you my dear friends.please share ur happiness with small children who have no homes or parents .
love

READY TO EMBRACE MY WORLD
|
Dec 22, 2005 8:00 pm
4544 Views

looking at these strangers, i started to imagine the worlds
they all carry with them and how it's only accessible through
their eyes and by certain people and i wish i could
spend a day in each one of their lives
and ask them if they have found their passion,
have they found true love,
what makes them cry, what is that one memory
that will never escape their mind.
i know we aren't meant to meet everyone...as they pass me by.
and this brings thoughts of all those who have colored my world
and whose traces of love will never be erased and i'm filled
with so much gratitude that can only be expressed with a smile
as i'm standing all alone in this place full of unfamiliar faces
and then this stranger passes me by and she looks me in the eyes
and smiles back and i realize that maybe that is all
we will ever share as she walks away and that it is enough.
my life is filled with all those i was meant to know
and around every corner there is an abundance
of new souls ready to embrace my world
and i'll be ready to get lost in theirs.
*********************************************************
today, is the 2nd yr anniversary of my entrance into the IFF world
and i wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all
those i have met who have touched and enriched
my life with their worlds.
thank you for your encouragement, inspiration and talent.
i'm so glad that distance doesn't limit me from connecting
with beautiful souls like you.
I CANT NAME ALL MY FRIENDS SO THIS POST IS FOR ALL OF THEM WHO READ THIS POST .
LOVE

MARKETING OURSELVES IN THIS CRUEL SOCIETY
|
Dec 21, 2005 3:02 am

Today in this world of advanced technology all over the world we have all reached a stage where equal respect should be COMMANDED by men as well as women.in what way women are less priviledged or less intelligent?we have women almost in every field.you name it and there we have women.its bad to term feminine gender as the weaker sex not any more.in bangalore itself we can boast of women corporators,surgeons,police inspectors,lawyers,top executives in MNCs and even our biocon queen is a woman with the gutso... kiran mazumdar shaw.but yet there have been incidents real bad ones where women have been at the receiving ends.recently a girl from HP(MNC) was raped and murdered(butchered i must say)by a cab driver which ferried her to her workplace in the wee hours of mornings.most of you have read this and i need not write about this incident.women seem to be facing the wrath of TORTURE and HUMILIATION.ultimately it makes me think where we are heading for?why dont we stop this kind of treatment meted out to women in our society?my only question to all women today is "WHEN WILL YOU ALL REALLY WAKE UP?"
In one way or the other, we do try to sell ourselves [awful, but true]. Be it at job fairs, interviews, matrimonial sites, relationships [some of us have even tried that], etc. The good part is, unlike inanimate objects, we humans don't need to show tangible benefits to sell ourselves. Our *features* are our key selling points. Makes me wonder though, about how the raw material composition and method of preparation is the same for ALL of us, yet each one of us is unique. We all have different storage requirements, shelf lives, melting points, expiration dates, doses, indications, etc. Why, we good ones even come in small packages [do I hear protests from the big & tall ones??]..just kidding. There are some of us who confuse these features with benefits. Some of us who think superficial attributes [like skin color] should offer competitive advantage in the market of life. It's the 21st century! It's time for these airheads to wake up and smell the coffee! Bleaching your hair, whitening your skin, and putting on an accent is not going to do it for you. Retaining virtues that are so taken for granted is an important part in the formulation of success. Small (??) things like kindness and selflessness, are missing in many of us even today. Selling your idea is a much bigger deal than selling yourself. I find that challenging, don't you?
ANY COMMENTS FROM ALL MY WOMEN FRIENDS?
I WOULD LOVE TO GET AS MANY FROM WOMEN LIKE GOOD GIRL,SUNBEAM,RACHELLE,NELLA,POOJA,RAINSTORM,SALONEE AND OTHERS.
LOVE
