God has his own ways



As a kid I was often asked
How a line could become smaller without a touch
“Just draw a longer line”, they told me
That’s it! It didn’t need too much.

God has his ways
Of saying the same old things
He loves giving practical lessons
To his supposedly favorite beings

As if being without dad wasn’t enough
And perhaps He couldn’t quite understand what I prayed
Now mummy leaves us for her eternal journey
I hate these rules that God has made

Though I am sure you are now at a much better place
Relieved now from the pain that you went through,
I can’t find a way to accept that you have left
I can’t find a way to live without you

You were the first friend I ever made
Always my backup when I had noone else to play
You were my teacher, my listener, my brother, my sister
You were the only one who always knew what I really wanted to say

I would try not to cry as I miss you
Though you and what you taught me would be with me for good
I would care, I would share, would forget and forgive
I would do as i expect, and wouldn't try too hard to be understood.

May you rest in peace mummy Far away from the lesser mortals
All I wish for is one last hug from you
Just say a few last words and then bless me with your hand
God I know you need her but I needed her too...

2 Laddoos.. So much for the effort!!!

It was lunch as usual when I overheard a conversation between Polo and Upasana about a possible trip to Tirupati. The idea of a trip itself was exciting, irrespective of the destination. I was pretty jobless with no classes at all for a few days. So I interfered in the conversation and passed the message to our broadcasting channel, namely, Miss Shikha Jain. Soon i get a list of interested people, and in a couple of days I booked the railway tickets. "But!" said Naveen, "Takloo (dats my nickname for my last hair style), where are the Darshan Tickets???" I didnt even know we got those tickets from Chennai, and that it was tough to get them. Just a day before we were supposed to leave, we went to the TTD (Tirupati Tirumala Devasthanam ) centre only to find that no tickets were available for 7th Feb, the day we had planned to reach the temple. Disappointed, we came back home, and thought about re planning the trip, but Mr. Aanand and Naveen suddenly find out from s...

One Fine Day...

Someday you just feel like standing out of yourself. Just watch yourself as the world does. Where are you? What is it that the world thinks you are? And most importantly, who are you for yourself. So what is it that you really are? And what makes you what you are. Is it the choices that you make? Or is it but a function of choices made by those around? Or is it neither? Do your choices, your decisions, your actions actually make a difference? Is free will for real? Is it really you who makes those choices, who takes those decisions. Or are these governed by this 4 letter f word. I mean fate. Is it fate that rules? Have you been planted somewhere for a plan to implement itself gradually. Coz they say everyone’s existence has a purpose. Or have you merely been sent to make plans and create a purpose for your life? Are there billions of other co-existing plans that keep colliding with and gelling into each other? As tightly knit as the clock’s gears. Or is it just The Plan that...
