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

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.

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 ,,

Freedom of choice and action
Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?
Materialistic things we are attached to , at a particular time changes with time ,, some we get or achieve and then we loose much attachment to them, some over the time become worthless for us to be attached with as get mature.
But i think through all those things we are basically expecting to attain a state of mind which we expect is going to make us feel pleasant, joyous or satisfied, if we get what we are longing or desiring at that moment.
So i think during that phase of my life, if really I have to think of something which is worthy to mention is “freedom of choice and action” , as having strict parents, school and some restrained circumstances and quite scarce resources available , i was always longing to have freedom of choice and action backed by availablity of required resources to carry out things I would like to do in that state of mind.

Maybe ,,,,
Are you a good judge of character?
More we shift our focus towards understanding rather than judging on our pre-conceptions based on past experiences or our personal thinking, I think one can find out in clearer way of what a person is holding inside behind the masked visible identity.
Well, I don’t think I always guessed it right in past. But now as I have shifted my gears towards understanding,
yeah! it takes time but the probability of reaching to right conclusion is higher.

Divided self
In the midst of journey,
Finding myself in yet another war,
Rebellion thoughts resisting the socialist bars.
Choosing among the plethora of arsenals,
Social mindset seems the heavier side,
But with undeterred and determined thoughts,
Rebellious callings riding the high tides.
Amidst this turmoil,
Being confused and frustrated,
Which side will win or lose,
Will I be delighted for win?
Or disappointed with the loss?
Its standing question with million odds.
As hailing from the same source,
Emotions behind the result,
May not lead to usual bulks.
So here a decision to decide,
If to opt for a balancing stride,
Or let rise one of the sides,
Such is the battle among the thoughts,
Brutal and frustrating,
When oneself divides itself to different sides,

Understanding: ironical truth
In the vast ocean of understanding,
Somewhere its sense is lost with the illusions illustrated by crests and troughs of judgemental tides,,
