Sparkling sand in blazing sunshine
Putting every head into a whirlwind
Dozy a little lousy
With a hat on like howdy
Going on and on,
Slowly but steadily
Seeking a shelter in far sight
Seems like a river
Mirror reflections
Suddenly got everyone's attention
Is this real or just an illusion
Or just another Mirage in action,
Whatever it is
It's still instilling hope
And motivation
To carry on and on,,

False Hope : Still A possitive Determinant

Baffling thoughts
In this rebellion phase
These noises in and around space
Crackling, a bit baffling
Stinging, a bit clinging
In an unknown chase,
Smoking mounds
Everywhere in and around
Finding no lease from this obscurity
Standing still in this confusing reality
Amid Rushed in fear and insecurity,
When this fire will put off
When this flaming will stop
It's Frightening, its insane
Wondering how much is impending to add on
And how much this brain can take on,

Thunderous moments
In the sky filled with flashlights,
And thunderous rumblings,
Somewhere inside far above,
Amid extreme intense turbulence,
Millions of droplets
With supercooled temperature
Awaiting to get released
To rejoice every creature
Awaiting to get soaked
After bearing the brunt of
this heated crust,,,

Smile Anyways😊
In the aftermath of snow fall
When traffic freezes for a while
Person on driving seat
With saddened state of mind
Wondering how will he get to his home
To someone at home, it's amusing
And for someone out somewhere it's so annoying
Some one is smiling
And some one is crying
In search of happiness
One has found it so confusing
Ultimately It all depends on
Which side of Nile, are you standing,
If it's desert enjoy the beachy shores
And if it's greener side
Enjoy the plush fields
Life follows different course for everyone
If you have stormy journey
Inspite of crying
Just evolve stronger
If you have to smile
Just smile anyways,,

No matter what life goes on,,
How does death change your perspective?
The passage of life has changed some and strengthen some of my perspectives about life.
At some point of time,The things which seemed to be so important for my happiness or even survival, and when life has taken them away from me , it proved me wrong and life went on as it goes on here I am even more at peace than ever.
There were some perspectives about life which were quite unorthodox to usual people’ s way of thinking and acting in the so called social life , and I felt It will be so unfair to me and my instincts if I leave them to follow what’s considered right. So, i decided to follow my heart and instincts no matter what , faced criticism with some frustration in start and later on with smile, and now I am known for who I am.
So as the life went on, i learnt one thing that it never let us teaching and it follows its own course as it has to. Whatever it has given us or taken away from us, it will also give the strength to bear it’s burnt or enjoy the pleasure of it. Best it to be silent watchful spectator and understand it’s experiences by going through them gracefully unhinderedly. That way has the peace of mind in the journey itself rather than at some destination. And when our mind is at peace, that’s best version of life one can imagine of living.

Wandering mind
Me and I are sittin
Sippin my coffee
Black and bitter
Is what my buds are feelin,
Wanna think about somethin
Yet am stuck at nothin
Can’t stop my mind wanderin
From inner urges to external purges
How much distance it’s coverin
Yet its not making me wonderin,
What should It be doin,
Where should it be goin,
What direction it must be headin,
Watching it silently how it’s strugglin,,
More it tries to get focussed,
Worse it gets in getting any hold,
Confused or being lost,
While choosing from probabilities stall,
Is it afraid in this gade,
Like standing on the edge of blade,
I am still thinkin
And still sippin
It’s still bitter
But my brain stop it recevin
Maybe my buds were too thinkin
While my mind was continuously blinkin,,

An illusive fwd journey to backwards
In this war of dominance,
Somehow we set journey on wrong path,
It should have been the path working upon poverty , equality and development,
And somehow we set course on religious fervent,
Where this tug of war will lead us?
I think this very foolish quest will badly beat us,
Who is talking about real issues?
Everyone is trying to create some kind of illusion,
To blindfold masses in array of attractive but unreasonable quest,
Making them to be a part of this bullshit push and pull heist,
Someone trying to behold God as himself being the one,
Someone trying to quash such claims as out of any religious book,
Who will win and who will lose?
Will it even make any real effect in our living standard?
Hope everyone will ask same question from self,
Before joining and pacing up the race with those invisible bullies,,,
With the hope of seeing light at the end of tunnel,
It’s pushing us backwards to even darker phase we already crossed,,
Who needs religion if he considers himself a human!
Doesn’t humanity holds enough ground against all derivations of religion?
I Hope everyone just try once,
To feel humanity in themselves,
And all the issues will be addressed on itself,,
I hope atleast all those forces trying to high jack ,
Breaks apart soon and let the journey in the right direction to begin,,

Provoked !! Yet enlightened,, Thanks
In those darkest moments,
When everyone was prophesying,
And everyone was onto me scratching,
To let the last drop of emotions,
Get dried up and bathe in sunlight,
I think everyone forgot dual effect of the scorching heat of Sunlight,
If it can dry then it can also melt the molten elements,
And everyone forgot I am made of molten materials,
And so are my emotions,
As much someone tried to soak them up,
It turned more into liquid form to flow freely,
Without any hindrance and blockade,
Carefree and shapeless,
Of anyone’s perception and impression,
Now if I am insensitive to those provoking voices,
I feel more emotional to my inner callings ,,

Welcome 2024 ” an opportunity to introspect 2023″
Most of times we welcome new year with lots of celebration and many resolutions in mind to keep up with. And after few days it remains as just change of last number while we write date for next 365 days, which also we forget and mostly for first few days we continue writing previous year only. That’s how we are and so our resolutions 😆.
I think it might not have proved that much for many, but it’s a moment where we can look back and read first page of previous year’s diary/daily journal and then introspect ourselves about how far we went and achieved what we wanted to achieve or how far we were able to resist things we wanted to leave. Thus It’s an opportunity to look back for one’s past and then may be this year it may enhance our focus, determination and capabilities to make up for lost chances and make good of them strongly this year.
“With that wish and hope I wish everyone a peaceful, successful and joyous year ahead”
What lies beneath our thoughts!
