~ Reflections ~

This is a forward i got.. though i should share it Have you ever watched kids On a merry-go-round? Or listened to the rain Slapping on the ground? Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight? Or gazed at the sun into the fading night? You better slow down. Don't dance so fast. Time is short. The music won't last. Do you run through each day On the fly? When you ask "How are you? "Do you hear the reply? When the day is done Do you lie in your bed With the next hundred chores Running through your head? You'd better slow down Don't dance so fast. Time is short. The music won't last. Ever told your child, We'll do it tomorrow? And in your haste, Not see! his sorrow? Ever lost touch, Let a good friendship die Cause you never had time To call and say "Hi"? You'd better slow down. Don't dance so fast. Time is short. The music won't last. When you run so fast to get somewhere, You miss half the fun of gettingthere. When you worry and h

We all work. In different capacities, in different roles. Each of us have different motives for doing what we do .. some might do it for sheer pleasure , some for money and some for power. But whatever the reason , if the job at hand it performed to the satisfaction of everyone , if you utilise all your skills , and perform the task with fullest efficiency .. In such a case , what is more important ... that the work is done ..or does the motive still hold importance ???

Another year is just about to pass us by. Time is not static, it keeps moving. So it is only wise to keep moving with it... I mean not try to overtake it (it isn't possible, unless you believe in time travel ;-)), but move at a steady pace and not stagnate. So when I indulge myself in introspection, I must be careful not to begin living in the moments of the past. I must simply carry forward the lessons I've learnt and treasure the good moments. After all Yesterday might have been good, But tomorrow might be better.What makes the difference is our attitude towards life!

Is marriage the only thing of importance in life.. In every decision i am making... i am constantly reminded by people around me , in more ways than one, that marriage is the only ultimate goal i should keep in mind..

I believe in god , though not in the conventional way people do... I agree there is someone more superior than all of us.. or shall i say some supernatural power ... but that doesn't make me believe in an idol.... So whether it is my succcess or my failure i attribute it all to myself... as a consequence of what i've done.. I'm now saying i don't believe in destiny , but then i also believe that i create my own destiny... Then how is a prayer , or submission to an idol responsible for how i have performed ?? Is that because i lack the humility ...as someone told me today...

In a moment of joy... in a moment of gloom...the first person we look for,is not famiy, but a friend...a frind who'd understand. Someone who'd understand your happiness...and be happy with you. Who'd appreciate your success ,and not feel jealous.. Who'd support you , at the time of crisis , without hoping for anything in return... Then why ... do i feel jealous of my friend... am i not a true friend .. or am i just being immature..

I've finally created a blog... after procrastinating for so long.. so its only right if i start with hope.. HOPE ~ Emily Dickinson Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all, And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. I've heard it in the chillest land, And on the strangest sea; Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me.
