....Fine Tuning ....




There are some things in this world that you connect with, instantly. Be it a song, film, book,or a person.Just consider a song which touches the bottom of your heart.From the first note you are kinda like hooked. You repeat the same song in the playlist.Three times later, you are busy looking for lyrics (may be 'googling' for it). You find them and play the song again. This time the words are in front of you. You read and understand them. May be pausing the music player here and there just to understand the lines clearly.Next time you start reading those lines and u start surrendering to a warm feeling just inside your heart .You give in and feel,how every word makes so much sense and how each line is so true. Almost you feel like the song is made for you and you start relating those characters to yourself and others who are very close to you. Then you realize that things you wished didn't happen and there is no meaning in relating to the song. You stop the music,close the player also.. but it is too late. The words are embedded in your mind. You wake up next morning humming the tune , smile and move on.

Few years later some where in the countryside you hear the same song. You fail to recognize it at its first note. The mind has found newer tunes, etched newer connections. But heart remembers. You smile and move on…humming the tune unconsciously but this time without lyrics.

In life you meet so many people and few of them leaves a mark in the heart. Few years later you meet that person or hear their voice or you just hear their name, heart clamors for them and starts recalling everything associated with that person. Then , you smile , move on and Life goes on. Memories etched in the heart is for lifetime Isn't it? Never forgets the tune of the song but only the lyrics. I relate to everyone by heart.. thats wat makes me what i am.. cos i don want to hum the song without lines. Those who etched thier mark in heart will become lyrics of life and you just need to find the fine tunes to compose the song of your life.

Guest Blogging....A Cry For Help.....

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, and all of the others, including Love.

One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all repaired their boats and left. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to persevere until the last possible moment. When the island was almost sinking, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said, “Richness, can u take me with you?” Richness answered, “No I can’t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place for you here.”

Love decided to ask Vanity, who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. “Vanity, please help me!” “I can help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat,” Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by, so Love asked for help. “Sadness let me go with you.” “Oh…Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!”

Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her!

Suddenly, there was a voice, “Come Love, I will take you.” It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that he even forgot to ask the elder her name.

When they arrived on dry land, the elder went her own way. Love, realizing how much he owed the elder, asked Knowledge, another elder, “Who helped me?”

“It was Time,” Knowledge answered.

Time?” asked Love. “But why did Time help me?”

Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered. “Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is.”

Down The Memory Lane!!!!!

After long time, got little time to visit my granny's place. A place where i spent my childhood days. I had been there before for number of times, but this time it is indeed a special one. I walked through the streets where i used play as a kid.. The playground, and a river behind it brought back my childhood memories... I was happy to see that, it still exits as it is. This is the best part of small towns, isn't it??.

I was surprised to see the wall in the ground which is incidentally served as stumps for our cricket games still standing high(yes, half the part is broken.. but i cant accept that because the amount of hits it sustained..) and the best part was a old woman recongnised me .. she is the one who gave me a second life(will share this story in later posts). I could not have asked for more.

A intution of independent in my mind made me to feel like walking in the streets keeping head high on my shoulders. May be i myself wanted to see the path which i crossed before.

This is the place where "Thoughts became Wishes","Wishes became Dreams" and asked me to turn these " Dreams into Goals".
Moreover the trip brought back my old memories.A famous kannada song is based on this.. Here it goes..
"ಸವಿ ಸವಿ ನೆನಪು ಸಾವಿರ ನೆನಪು..."

A Letter for Someone Special :)

As silence fills my loneliness
Only for you my heart cries
The growing gnawing pain within myself
That tears every senses of my life
I still have the memories when we first meet
Memories that I thought would just be the beginning
And would never end
But suddenly it was gone with the wind
Each breath i take which describes my life
Is all because of you
Deep inside my heart I do
Thinking that you feel the same way too
My heart broke like a glass when you said i am just a backup
I have been waiting for a chance
Hoping that one day you would realize and understand
You have closed your door to me indeed
Perhaps I was obsessed and was pushing myself to you…
And now, I need to say goodbye and Let go.
