Words

Words - Souvenirs of an angel

Expression of love unbound

The more you say, The more you mess

Irrevocable damage it does..

The more you share,The more you smile

Words are indeed the best !!

Of touch, Of tear, succor and fear

It makes us feel subsit!

Words - The devil screams

My way of torture and pain

Words - The sharpest thorn in our life

It bruises our ego and smirk!

When words uttered to us are highly contextual..Why do we always take it in a way which does not mean happiness for us? Why do we always find it as a personal attack and become defensive by throwing it back? Why do we make our life a warfield? Why do we spend our entire life defending our ego? Why is it so important to us that every one around share our thoughts? Why do we smile relief when we "WIN" an argument? If you think you are wiser than the rest, wait till your grandchild proves you worng..Or maybe just grow old and die so that the rest could moan and move on......

Family n Friends

FAMILY is something that your born into..They watch you as you take your first step, as you say your first word, as you evolve into an adult, as u change....They are with you in almost every stage of your life...You then think no one can understand you better! As you get out of this protective shell, you realize things are not as easy n comfortable as you thought they were...And once your out of this shell there is no escape...You are thrown into situations n scenarios which you would'nt have even dreamt of! Well, forget facing it you would have never even known some of them existed..That's when for the first time your fighting it out all alone...Its then that you discover the special n rare species, never encountered before - FRIENDS!!

Strangers at first...But who would have even guessed that the first smile or the first handshake would take you a long way...First you try it out the formal way with the "hello's" "thank you's" and "sorry's"...But then when you see how well you hit off you start opening up more...Leading to long chats, day outs, night outs, shopping, movies, silly fights, photo shoots, gossip talks and what not! ;) As time passes you discover and understand each other better and get really close.You begin to consider them as your family because they tend to become so..Hmmmm maybe its different..Different for the fact that they are not related by blood..But do we really care...NO!! And now when you are out fighting it all alone..When you are really exhausted and wish that life could be more easy..Then you look beside's you and find your friends smiling at you...Giving you those much needed stressbusters which then tempts you to smile back!!

Kudos to all my friends for painting my memories with the polychromatic shades of sublime exuberance! :)

Ever Wondered - Which one hurts more?

At times you are stuck on one of life's busy roads and all you want to do is stand there and look back...It might just be a highway buzzing with activity and there also may be a risk of being run down...But at times like these..Nothing really matters...An eerie of silence is all you hear....

Your enemy has stabbed you in the back because he did not have the guts to face you!!
Your friend has punched you in the face because he had every right and reason to!!

The scar on your back reminds you of the betrayal u have faced...But the memory of that punch brings back to you moments of a lost friendship..Both have caused immense pain...The knife might have left behind an ugly mark....The punch has'nt...
But in the journey of life, you will remember the punch a lot more often than the stab mainly because it strangely has only fond memories coming back with it...
Its true - you might never forget your enemies but your heart constantly searches for that one friend you lost along the way....Hoping that someday he might just turn up and ask you to come back...
And then you realise the stab has left a scar but you dont feel the pain anymore...But the punch,though silent and clean has left you with a terrible phantom pain - amputated for life!!

You are stuck on life's busy highway and all you can do is wish, wait and smile through the pain !!

Reminiscing Good Old Days...

Decisions were made by doing eeny-meeny-miney-mo
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming..Do Over!
Race - Meant arguing about who ran the fastest
Money - Was handled by whoever was the banker in Monopoly
Catching fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening
It wasn't odd to have two or three best friends
Being old, referred to anyone over 20
The net on a tennis court was the perfect height to play volleyball and rules didn't matter
Having a weapon in school, meant being caught with a slingshot
Nobody was prettier than Mom
Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better
It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the big people rides at the amusement park
No shopping trip was complete, unless a new toy was brought home
Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was a cause for giggles
The worst embarrassment was being picked last for a team
War was a card game
Water balloons were the ultimate weapon
Taking drugs meant orange-flavored chewable aspirin
Ice cream was considered a basic food group

Just reminiscing my childhood days.....Alas! Kids of today hav a different tale to tell!!
