Life quote...

Fueled by determination,
Driven by passion,
Geared by optimism,
Accelerating towards excellence...
Euphoria would be an understatement




Had made this quote a few years back... chanced on it again today... so sharing

And then I died...

It happened so suddenly

In the shortest of an instance

The piercing pain ran through my body

Everything faded out at once

Even through the din around there

I could hear you calling out to me

Are you really around me now

Or is it a part of my fantasy

I held on for that one moment

Through every second of pain

Just waiting for you to come

Waiting to hear your voice again

My mouth was open as I tried

To tell you all that I wanted

Of the love felt all this time

Fears of separation which haunted

But as the tears flowed freely

While my voice completely choked

I struggled to tell you everything

All the passions you had evoked 

Cuddled up in between your arms...

My last smile I just smiled

Holding you for that one final time

I smiled and then I ... died....

Ok... first thing... all is normal... 

this poem is more of the things I had felt thought while reading about soldiers and all, their last moments, while they feel that its the end and miss their beloved. Somehow tried to capture the last moments.

 

I can maybe add Shrikanth poem of the homecoming soldier as a reference for here. Some stories, as they say, are not meant to go all the way.

your views on it are welcome :-)

 

Disclaimer - In no way do I wish to even remotely demean the brave soldiers who fight for us in hostile conditions. My best wishes with them always for a long and peaceful life.

Cake quote :-)

A good cake
Is the sign that God loves us 
And wants us to eat and be happy


This quote came over with sms chat with PV.
Then Mini somehow on the same day messaged me saying she is having a cake. 
This quote was also inspired by Priyanka's blogpost - Ultimate Pet Pooja


So, I guess the Universe is conspiring and telling me to go eat a nice cake. 


Sizzling Brownie, hot chocolate and generous scoop of Vanilla ice-cream. Pure pleasure and super delicious awesome delight :-)

Kids or Adults - Quote

Hey,
We are all kids, who walk and talk like adults due to the age factor :-)


this quote came up when I was chatting with Srini who was recently given a Versatile blogger awards :-D


Good going buddy. Keep up to good work :-)

Another quote/saying...Heroes

While chatting with a friend trying to cheer her up a bit, I guess I made up this one

Sometimes we are so busy counting our misfortunes and bad lucks,
That we forget to count our blessings, good lucks, good deeds and our everyday fights, which make us and all others around us - Heroes


well, I am not sure whether I had heard it somewhere earlier and dear Google didn't turn up anything similar :-)

ओल्या आठवणी ...

ओल्या आठवणी


A hunt for a suitable source which might have inspired me to write this poem is still on :-)


खिड़की उघडून उभा राहिलो मी
त्या वार्‍याचे स्वागत करायला
तो ही खुशीत आला धावून जोरात
मित्रासारखा मिठी मारायला

वाटले परत तोच वारा वाहत आहे
वेगात आणि आपल्याच  धुंदीत
मॅन प्रसन्न करत जातो
आठवणींचे गाड जाळे उडवित

पाऊस ही आला मागोमाघ पळत
त्याने ही साथ दिली वार्‍याला
दोन थेंब दिले त्याने हळूच
आठवणीनवरची धूळ पुसायला

वारा पाऊस वाहीले एक संगे
मी ही वाहिलो त्यांच्या संगे
सुगंधी फूलणार्या त्या आठवणीत
शोधतो मी तुला ग सखे

ओलेचिंब भिजून गेलेल्या ह्या अंगी
उब होती तुला जवळ घेण्याची
थरथर अंग कापत होते थंडीने 
पण ओढ होती ह्या मनी प्रीतीची 

एक ती आपली छोटीशी कहाणी अजूनही
मनात घर करून आहे बसलेली
पहिल्या पावसात आपली ती भेट
आणि आपुलकीची घट्ट मिठी मारलेली

हा पाऊस आणि भीजलेली तू पाहून
आज त्या आठवणी आल्या परत
एक झालो ज्यात आपण पहिल्यांदा 
तो रोमांच पुन्हा एकदा जाणवला नकळत...






Well... the transliterations have not been to well received... as someone said... doesn't make sense :-)
and you know the lazy me... so call me up if you need a translation :P
or maybe if you are also feeling lazy to call up... use Google translate... and yeah... do send me the results :-)

time for another quote :-)

Don't judge people by the narrowness of your own mind...


This quote came up after quite a few talks with friends and acquaintances... especially when they seek or share an opinion on someone. The labels and accusations flow a lot more freely than adoration.


We don't know their journey nor their ideas, so best is not to comment about it unless really required :-)
