Don’t let someone become a priority in your life, when you’re just an option in their life…
I’m very sad. It’s a big let down for me. I ’m so emotionally shocked that I cannot express it in words and neither feel the pain that is cuffing my heart every minute. ‘Where did I go wrong?’ This is the question I repeatedly ask myself. But there is no answer that comes back to me. I haven’t certainly expected such a treat from you, my life. The only thing that I understand is that I’ve got ditched by you and my life. This is something that I’ve never expected!
I just want someone to understand me, my condition, my suffering that you’ve caused me, the person I least expected would gift me anything such. Why did you play with my heart, my trust, my faith and my understanding? Don’t you feel for me that you hurt and bruise me time and again? After so many years being together, today I’m left alone. A loner in spite of being surrounded by people, a loner with a lost heart wandering on mindless thoughts, a loner who has lost the objective to live and has no reason to die. I don’t even know if a treacherer like you should be punished or should I bear this pain like I’ve borne all these years your love, your failure and success, your fakeness, your truth!
I know I’m to be blamed, because time and again I’ve trusted you, tried to rectify you, given you chances to prove yourself, trusted your lies knowing that it’s a mistake I’m committing again, have supported you like a pillar. Throughout I’ve pulled you out of testing times. But I couldn’t help because I loved you like hell. That was my biggest mistake – as all the while I was loving you, you were just pretending your love for me! Today you stab me all over, misunderstanding me in every thing I say, treating me as if I don’t exist for you, looking at me like I’ve doomed your life. I haven’t expected anything from you neither physical support nor financial aid. But I thought that in mind we’re bonded together. Alas! That is the biggest lie I’ve been living with.
I don’t have anyone to turn to. God I just trust you because I know are there and will always pull me out of the biggest crisis of my life. My parents are not beside me but you can see all that I’m going through and can hear all those words that are being spoken to me. If anywhere I go wrong please let my conscience feel it and let me rectify it. Whenever anyone does any wrong to me give me the courage to fight back. Please don’t make me weak, God!

If you do not Hope...
Four candles slowly burned.
The ambience was soft, one could almost hear them talking... The first candle said, "I am Peace ! The world is full of anger and fighting. Nobody can keep me lit."
Then the flame of Peace went out completely. Then the second candle said, "I am Faith ! I am no longer indispensible. It doesn't make sense that I stay lit another moment."
Just then a breeze softly blew out Faith's flame. Sadly the third candle began to speak. " I am Love ! People don't understand my importance, so they simply put me aside. They even forget to Love those who are nearest to them. I haven't the strength to stay lit."
And waiting no longer, Love's flame went out. Suddenly... A child entered the room and saw the three unlit candles.
"Why aren't you burning? You're supposed to stay lit till the end." Saying this, the child began to cry. Then the fourth candle answered: "Don't be afraid, I an Hope !
While I am still burning we can re-light the other candles."
With shining eyes, the child took the candle of Hope and lit the other candles. The flame of Hope should never go out from your life...
and with Hope each of us can live a life with
Peace, Faith and Love! If you do not Hope, you will not find what is beyond your Hopes !

JUST ONE!!
One song can spark a moment
One flower can wake the dream
One tree can start a forest
One bird can herald spring
One smile begins a friendship
One handclasp lifts a soul
One star can guide a ship at sea
One word can frame the goal
One vote can change a nation
One sunbeam lights a room
One candle wipes out darkness
One laugh will conquer gloom
One step must start each journey
One word must start each prayer
One hope will raise our spirits
One touch can show you care
One voice can speak with wisdom
One heart can know what's true
One life can make the difference
You see, IT'S UP TO YOU!

An Attitude Of Gratitude
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to? Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn. Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow. Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement. Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character. Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons. Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference. It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks. Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.

I’m enjoying every bit of it
It was a secret desire to appear on the front page of rediff BLOG. Well I guess all want name/fame and I’m no different. As soon as I sighted myself on the front page, with loads of congratulatory messages flowing in from my well wishers, it was an ecstatic moment for me. In a heartfelt manner, I would like to thank all those who are my friends and have appreciated my write-ups. I’m in cloud no. 9 at this moment of bliss and I’m enjoying every bit of it.

What was Meera’s fault!
Meera truly needs introduction….she is not a celebrity, not a genius, neither somebody you are familiar with. How can you know her! But if I say she is a short, deprived and ill fated girl, who had to bargain her childhood to earn money working as a maid servant, would any one be interested to hear?
Meera took to the profession when she was hardly seven, may be she didn’t even know what she was getting into. Her bubbly activity, short-cropped hair, old dress but a refreshing smile were the first thing you would notice about her. But the most remarkable thing was her dancing, that would start whenever and wherever, and her funny steps would lead everyone roll with laughter. She would speak funny things as well – may be they were some figment of her imagination. She was not very good with household chores and that is pardonable considering her age. She would forget to do things, steal and eat, would lie and for all these activities she was never treated kindly. She would lament and cry, but did anyone care to look back at the poor soul.
Meera willingly or unwillingly had to work. There were people who would show love and care to her at the beginning and lure her to work in their home. But soon that generosity would disappear and they would take to sticks and hand to bit her. Meera’s fate kept toggling from one home to another, as if she was just a plaything, with no voice to protest, a lifeless object indeed whose fate has been written by those who just served her with two meals a day. Meera is cursed to lead such a life, with no identity of her own, with innocence lost, with only pain to bear and much more to suffer. Don’t know where Meera is today, but I pray for her and hope I could do something for her.
If you see or hear the cry of any such child, please do something for her. Save her life! Stop child abuse!

DON'T LOOK BACK
As you travel through life there are always those times
When decisions just have to be made,
When the choices are hard, and solutions seem scarce,
And the rain seems to soak your parade.
There are some situations where all you can do
Is simply let go and move on,
Gather your courage and choose a direction
That carries you toward a new dawn. So pack up your troubles and take a step forward -
The process of change can be tough,
But think about all the excitement ahead
If you can be stalwart enough! There might be adventures you never imagined
Just waiting around the next bend,
And wishes and dreams just about to come true
In ways you can't yet comprehend! Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring from new things
As you challenge your status quo,
And learn there are so many options in life,
And so many ways you can grow! Perhaps you'll go places you never expected
And see things that you've never seen,
Or travel to fabulous, faraway worlds
And wonderful spots in between! Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring
And somebody special who's there
To help you stay centered and listen with interest
To stories and feelings you share. Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends
Are supportive of all that you do,
And believe that whatever decisions you make,
They'll be the right choices for you. So keep putting one foot in front of the other,
And taking your life day by day...
There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road -
Don't look back! You're not going that way!

MIRACLES DO HAPPEN
Today I sat savouring the soft notes of silence Filling the touch of the gentle wind Stealing its way in through the key hole Reminding me of the way you came into my life Unannounced... Filling it with the everlasting fragrance of love And I said to myself ‘MIRACLES DO HAPPEN’
