Random Thoughts...

Sitting down to pen my thoughts

Thoughts entangling flurry of emotions

Emotions filled with tint of bloom and joy

Joy with the hope to sustain

Sustain for eternal life

Life of dreams with gleam and glory

Glory to outshine beauty of  naive soul

Soul with brim of innocence 

Innocence spreading smiles to miles

Miles to reach to encompass my scattered thoughts...

Human without Humanity???

With so much happening around , looks like 2020 should already be termed as year of turmoil. So much negativity prevailing, every day we are waking up to some shocker or the other. Especially since when this Corona thing has started, it seems like world peace is alarmed. We are waking up to the news of increasing death toll across the globe, migrants battle,  forest fires, border tensions,  locusts attack, cyclone warnings, shaky earthquakes, riots, racism attacks, mass protests, mayhem, and what not- all leading to disaster. Still people are instilled with enough courage and hope that they can fight all this, adopting all safety measures they would emerge as true warriors, this pandemic is not as deadly as it was thought. Every one is running behind a crucial agenda of saving human lives and that's what we have been taught. The global economy coming to a standstill ,worldwide business facing crisis because they say life is of utmost importance, hence all infeasible efforts to save humans.

But, amongst all this, am just forced to question myself, will human count to any value without  littlest of humanity being left. Yes, and I think this is the ask of the hour and each one us should be posing to same quest from within our inner selves.

Woken up to the below piece of news today which totally led to a wave of utter shock, totally unbelievable and brutal act by  a group of monsters who call themselves humans

"A pregnant elephant was fed cracker stuffed pineapple by unidentified people in Kerala which exploded in her mouth, damaging her jaw and eventually took her life."

Just imagine the amount of grieving and pain the poor life had to undergo just because she was speechless, she was hungry, she was innocent, and after all she was just an animal??? Has Human  become this superior today that he can take life out of any living soul?? How can one even think of committing such a heinous crime?? At this point, can't visualize anything more inhumane and cruel that can happen.The act has surpassed all the limits of barbarism. Have we completely lost humanity?? Right to Education is being questionable when such heart wrenching incidents occur in the state that accounts for literacy rate of 93%, the state that is known as 'Gods own country'.  Sheer irony it is, all education and morals leading to such immorality. With the lack of empathy and kindness, nobody deserves to be called as human. There would be no purpose of saving population just for the sake. We have no right to hurt any existing life on this planet. These innocent souls have looked upon us since ages for food, shelter and all support we have provided to them. We can't lose that trust and let such ruthless incidents to happen.Search is still on for those heartless monsters, definitely they must be having the devil's horns on their heads. 

 Considered myself a thick-skinned but such horrified incident has perplexed me to vent the agony and unfortunately we do not have any solution. This is so much disturbing. Can just wish for the guilty to be punished soon with the worst possible way exposing to strictest of the laws. We can't let go such vicious crimes of betrayal. Justice needs to prevail at any cost.

Passion vs Profession??

This piece of mine can be treated as a random ranting or rambling . A general perception that led to the flow of series of thoughts.

'Engineer by chance and blogger by choice' - read a tagline or let me be true to you all, I somewhere feel this for me. And same could be story of many.

This is an age long battle, strongest of the dilemmas to follow passion or not, and seems to be a reality check now. Always there has been a thick line difference between passion and profession. But despite that many of us in fact most of us tend to give up our passion. And I completely follow it's one of the toughest choice indeed and thus has been a chapter for strong debate over years. We are bound to enfold our dreams knowingly or unknowingly. Because the fight always has been is what we love will not pay us as much.  So eventually one has to chose between passion and pay , pay to yield benefits that may support  good living. This leads to burial of innumerable dreams. But always we should not stand to blame anyone, as there might be valid set of logic behind this for most of the cases. Various factors contributing  the inclination towards booming professions and career options may include parental pressure, peer pressure, financial liabilities, responsibilities, late realization, and other related situations. Though 'pressure' is the only one here which might be dreadful. But, the end result is that the passion is crushed somewhere in the journey, journey in the pursuit of success. Though we may have to pay a heavy price and face endless struggle in the race of reaching new heights, and of course many fail in the same as well. The one question we need to ask ourselves is that is this the right parameter to measure success. How long one can sustain leaving behind the undone dreams and aimlessly running behind money. Though success thus achieved is capable of fulfilling the needs but the joy is very short-lived indeed. The contentment and the feeling of self accomplishment  achieved on pursuing passion is definitely incalculable. But pondering upon the factors that led to choose the career path can not be ignored even. If not always, many a times, the helplessness and compulsions traverse us to unusual path. And if that's the scenario, barring any sort of pressure, I personally don't think there's any wrong in choosing the way out  that would assist in paying the bills which in turn holds true essence for the survival. Keeping in mind that one is able to seek absorption in the chosen path thus possessing relevant skills which would be needed to be engrossed and achieve delight. In short all efforts to be made so that the interest keeps on dwelling. This may sound stupid though. Amongst all this, the point to be emphasized here is not to forget our passion, if within ourselves we hold perseverance to achieve big, we should be capable enough to keep that dream alive, though taking it as a parallel rather than mainstream job. So, to my belief it's never late to revive the lost passion, why letting it perish.

But yeah, highly fortunate are those who are privileged to make  worthy livings out of passion.

My Monday Morning..!!!

A ray of  hope with gleaming sunshine
A vision to lit the lucent mission,
A dream in half naked eyes,
A desire to conceive,
A firm belief  to rise high,
Marks the onset of  my Monday morning!

The flowers ready to bloom,
The birds waiting to chirp,
The dew all set to melt,
All thrilled to welcome Monday morning!

The words unsaid,
The thoughts unread,
The riddles to resolve,
The puzzles to unlock,
The determination to leave back ashes ruthless,
The aspiration  to start afresh,
Filled with new Hopes and Expectations arrives my Monday morning!

Risking---Mantra of Life!

Amidst the peaks and valleys,
Browsing through highs and lows of Life
craving for that very strike of success
the path is not as evident as it shows
duality it offers to chose
Risk is in which optimism you should owe
Fear never Ventures any
Learn to play with adventures
Feat and Defeat  should not be the reason to aback
for each has a substantial dominance
never reckoning to aftermath of regret and bruise
evolving with the tower of learning
in the end, you'll be the one
upholding the beacon of triumph..!

An Attempt to Make a Difference, A Desire to bring smile...

An Attempt to Make a Difference, A Desire to bring smile... Yes, this was the mere thought that drove me towards the program - 'U-CARE Friendship Program'. Much Thanks to my organization for giving me such a striking opportunity, a scope to enlighten few hearts , a chance to meet few kids from 'Vidya' - a NGO School. All it required is to charge those naive faces with the spark of confidence, with the wings of courage..to nourish their dreams , to up bring their desires..!
Every fortnight, how I urge to get an hour out of my monotonous work schedule, to meet those faces, to mentor those tiny tots. Can't express the smile they bear, the innocence they outburst with. It gives me a feeling of immense satisfaction, an sense of doing something, by putting in bare minimum efforts though. Believe me, these kids have enough in them, the talent to outburst, the only thing they need is to show them a ray of hope, an illusion of right direction.
To showcase, I've an instance. How the loud voiced ambitious learners demanded every one's attention , the words are still dancing in my head, enough they had to share about their experience, with us so far. Leaving behind the hesitation, each one could stand to address the class.
"I love this place. My knowledge has increased .I've learnt tenses, mmm gk, and states. My didi name is Madhu didi. She teach us very well. She makes sure we understand everything. never scolded us. I love to study."
Wow. I feel so glad to hear those words from one of the 6th grade trio of my group.Earning those words is superb, but trust me nothing I have done is out of the world.no struggle, no sweat.
Anything you dislike about this place : "hmmm..yes 1 thing . (ceegrate peena.. what it is called ? ..smoking,I replied). When we came i saw few people near gate smoking. it looks very bad."
Just imagine, how sharp they are to sense the fact.
Can we say something to every one..the chorus blew up: "We wish you and your family a very happy Diwali. We love you all".
Lost was the stumbling and so was the shyness.

Love you little kids..!!!
Proud to be associated with you all..!!!
Keep going and God bless...!!!

All we need is to infuse more spirit and spread more smiles. To touch few hearts and to shower the kindness.To teach in few and to learn a lot. A minute effort to make a difference, an utmost desire to inspire some one dream high.

Let us come together and do something to Make some difference.
Reiterate the great words by Mahatma -
"Be the change you want to see in the world"

Let us spread the aura of love and compassion all around.
Reminds me of lines by Hannah Moore
"Love never reasons but profusely gives; gives, like a thoughtless prodigal,
its all, and trembles lest it has done too little."

So, why not we can make a an effort to give something to our society , a bit of what we have achieved.A sense of giving is something that soothes us at the end of the day, isn't it?

HaPpY nEw YeAr..!!!

My sleep is what I miss..!!!

Couching on my velvet chair,
Feeling restless,lost elsewhere,
Amidst all snoring hiss,
My sleep is what I miss.

Shaping my castle of dreams,
Building my thoughts on themes,
Yearning to rise in bliss,
My sleep is what I miss.

Draining out the clutter from mind,
Thinking of words to bind,
Ignoring the airy kiss,
My Sleep is what I miss.

Silent night,wandering through the globe,
Wearing the gloomy robe,
Awful is this remiss,
My sleep is what I miss...!!!

Opportunity..!!!

Every strike on the door,
envisaged as a golden opportunity,
arriving from heaven's pathway,
adorning the alluring dreams,
enriching the glitter in vision,
demanding a strong seize..!!!

Single Talks..:)

Wings of freedom,
embracing the leisure of loose,
grooving upon the solace,
enchanting with myself..!!!

Give me some sunshine..Give me some Rain..Give me another chance,I wanna grow up Once Again..!!!

The world around is peacefully snoring, and me non stop listening to this number (don't have a count though),because just thoughts don't let me go.A bit aloof, somewhat distressed, restless, losing patience,posing temper, oh..my god, isn't it too much of negative vibes surrounding, do these really define me?? I wasn't like this ever,believe me. But, then what is causing this all of a sudden, or it's a gradual effect.Whatever.. But, the main concern is why, the life is seeming so off track, or is it me only moving in the wrong direction. We dream big, even work for them, but are we able to meet our dreams.We think high, but are those positive thoughts radiated back? Trying my hard to power my thoughts, but is it a worthy task, having a control over our mind? I feel, one single wish if granted, one single direction if shown, one single chance if given, I'll be what life desires from me.But, then when will I get that chance or rather how can I get it? You may say, by putting endless efforts, and labor, but even then,is a right direction not needed? A focus should be there, but the area to focus should be one's priority, isn't it? Am, totally lost in this song, trying to subdue my emotions, but still want to ask you, do life offer us another chance, can we get an opportunity to amend our mistakes, what if I realize it now, What if I wish to start again, Is there some one to show me new direction, will I be able to knock any opportunity? Is this song reflecting a part of my life, do I need another chance, do I wish to grow again, do I wish to live life on my own terms,Well, considering the scenario right at the moment it's showing a positive sign.But then, again huge list of when,how ,where quenches me.I wish,it's just a passing phase, and I might get back soon, discovering my answers, moving with a firm pace,living my Life..Hope, He is having an eye over my thoughts, after all He has to listen..!!!

Maa Tujhe Salaam..!!!

Heyy friends..I know, you must be sensing the presence of my absence, After a long time,I'm returning,and I've a list of excuses for that.Living with a state of mind, entirely bewildered, and longing for something righteous to happen.Losing clutch on my obsession, is something which is really bothering me at the moment.Amidst all this, a sincere thanks goes to few of my friends for always raising my spirits, just love the quality moments spent with you.I've been wasting my time over some silly social networking amusements,now I'll try to stay away before the addiction hits me.Last but not least,the freezing winters am living in, do play some role in drifting me away from my space, just lazying around in the chill, ample to learn from the people around, but i fail.In this shivery season, where frost seems to be at it's peak,I see one person running around just for the sake of her family.Before, the dawn breaks, she can be noticed commencing the habitual routine, as if matching the pace with the tick of clock.Dedicating the whole of her life in just serving us, meeting our endless demands.A question, strikes me here, does the winter chill don't bites her, can't she lay off with any excuse, but still my self loves to be so reluctant, i feel helpless.Devoting, the huge percentage of the day in standing in front of the stove, serving with varieties, innumerable and the unmatched delicacy, without expecting a word of praise. A bit of vex in my life,and I can feel the crease of tense and worry burdening her, what shall I pay for this admiring concern? Whenever.I'd been in any suffering, a healing hand I've always felt near me, A soft caress,I've never missed, but what about her ailments, she never grumbled,or I was least concerned. A Life of compromises engrossed with adjustments, facing and sacrificing at every step, is it so easy to live?Whatever dearth, she is in, she could never let you feel any scarcity, always have seen her showering the oceans of love and care.A quest soars often in my mind, if God has created her merely for meeting our demands, listen to all our whines, without a single ray of rage, encasing always with the warmth of her cuddle.Yes,that's a mother, a sanctified lady indeed. An impassive soul like me can draw such emotions, but all in vague, What minute efforts do I make, to meet her unsaid expectations? A heartiest salute, to my mother, her unconditional love is beyond any expression,Describing your supportive and understanding nature is virtually impossible.Thanks for making me Me, for courage to face the world, for lessons I've learnt from you and still have in abundance to learn.Again,I salute you..!!!

Another Year..!!!

Yeah..so all set to enter another year..?? A new year, or just another day, with what to honor it, is basically my dilemma, this time..but why am I in such a disoriented state of mind..? Hankering around for a vision, running for a purpose, my brain is just not enough for accumulating all those hefty thoughts, just awaiting to drain them out ,don't want to be preoccupied by any such thoughts and feelings..When, the people around are busy in celebrations, with full enthusiasm in welcoming the new year, am couching without any excitement, as if it would be just another passing day.When I look back, I could feel many arrears, logged into my account, I wish,I could take the life,the other way around, but as we all know, Life is not about looking back,instead Life is all about moving ahead , and as far change is concerned, yes, it begins from self, rather to blame the world around.Sometimes, I feel, if I could have a catch hold on the eloping time, but even that is next to impossible, so I really need to work for my perception, with confidence and an attitude of optimism, yes, this is what I've learnt from a life changing book, but ironically, not able to implement.but, yeah, am going to try this out, better late than never..and I just dream to reach my aspirations following the right direction.This is all, I need to perceive.So,just need to see,where I land up..My dear friends,hope,I've note bored you much with my thought factory.:)
Oh..how can I forget to Wish you all a very bright and joy filled Happy New Year.May the year ahead, mark it's prior importance in your lives.So,here,Wishing that you all might have a rocking year ahead..Happy 2010..!!!

A Wish to Fly High..:)

Take me out of
this gloomy sphere,
to hit the endless desires.
With the Wings of Wanderlust,
Want to fly high.
Wish,I could touch the sky.
My vigor speaks,
Yearning for the taste of freedom.
With the charismatic Wanderlust,
Want to crack the New Horizons.
Unbound destination,to compass,
Limitless miles to reach,
Want to leave behind,every
crease of vex,
Want to feel the breathe of air,
Take me in the wide open aura,
Before my alluring Wanderlust dies..!!!

Shades of Beauty...:)

Bliss of
Elation,and
Allure,with
Unrivaled
Treasure to
Yearn

Beauty is born when,
Heart touches the soul,and
Dream chases the reality...

Beauty is hidden in self,
Beauty is embedded in thoughts,
Beauty is to be discovered...

Beauty of a poem glows with words,
Beauty of music is with rhythm

Beauty of painting is stroke,
Beauty of art is in creation...

Beauty of Child is,
captured by Innocence,
Innocence roiling from eyes,
wrapped with smile,
Stealing the heart,and
Encasing the beauty with spark...

Beauty of Nature lies in,

              Garden of flowers,
              blooming in colors,

spring with showers,
fluttering leaves,and
chirping birds.
   Sea is beautified by waves,and
Clouds by rain,

Sky is lured by shine of sun,
twinkle of stars,and glitter of moon...

Beauty of Man is with,
his deeds and words,
his thoughts and actions.

Beauty lies in vision,Beauty lies in expression,
Beauty is to feel,Beauty is to see...

Beauty pacifies the joys, Beauty entraps the love,
Beauty is in God,Beauty is divine,
Beauty is here,Beauty is everywhere..!!!

I need to plea in petition,
You,the Creator of my Karma,
Owner of my actions,
Sealed my fate,
Concealed my destiny,

Ranting,I'm in a hope,
Burning in the fire of wither,
Craving for that serendipitous moment,
will it ever happen to me,

Shift in Time...

Minutes beating, and
with the transcend of every second,
I see a time elapse,
not just with the,
oscillation of clock hour, but
time is running from our life,
galloping at a rapid pace,
flying without wings,
the notice might be minuscule,
at the moment,but
as years pass by,
siting back and recounting memoirs,
recalling the experiences of past,
can a bit of that while, be driven back..??
wish,that time could be held tight,
clenched in my fist right,
an apparent drift in time, haunts,
with a caution to brisk with,
experiments of the present,and
advancing with the tranquil time,
so, not to woe for overrunning moments,
in the prospective future,
as this tranquility once lost,
would not spin back,
the shift is difficult to sustain..!!!

Life..is it an Adventure...??

Deep rooted in my heart,
lies a list of ventures,
years passed on,months crawled,
am still living with speculation,
with the advent of each day,
am offered a new jeopardy,
provocations to summon,&
challenges to deal with,
without these adventures,
life now seems to be a bore,
have become chronic to live with these odds,
have grown playing with these mysteries,
have learnt from my every adventure,
years to live for,
am going to carry my basket of ventures,
though,still rooted in my heart,
as a Gift from Life,
a defying bestowal,
which i honor with gratitude,
but at last a quest to be cracked,
What,If I say,
Life,itself is a basket of adventures..??

Candle..Living to Burn..!!!

A Burning Candle, I saw,
flickering the aura with its glow.
rekindling the light of radiance,
blazing in the dark with Castles in air.
Melting,it was into cries of wax,
endless tears to with held.
Burning,into flames of blue and red,
daringly fighting till last breathe to reach.
Facing all twists and turns,
With a gust of air,gets blown,
and then never known.
Living the life of immolation,
Sacrificing without any expectation..!!!

Yes, this is the life of a candle.What does it signify??Burning into heaps of ashes,& into hot flames,shedding down the tears of wax.a life full of struggles,a life of sacrifice, and a life for others..
Shouldn't our lives be inspired from it??Living for others, always as a helping hand,illuminating everyone's hearts with joys to share,walk ahead with struggles to fight,sacrificing at any moment.Yes,self sacrifice is considered to be one of the virtues,out of which every virtue grows. It's the finest deed.Only,when we learn to give something,we'll able to know it's importance.and,the Candle,once if it is blown off, has no value,similarly, we should keep on leading our lives,without fearing the hardships to come, and bravely fighting,being a ray of hope for all, and sacrificing ourselves wherever needed...

Crimson Incandescence,
Ablazing the Darkness,
Naive soul,it is,
Draped in tears of wax,for
Lucent rays of hope,amidst
Endurance and hassles..!!!

Adorning Success..:)

To crush each nightmare,
conjure
strength of mind,
To thrive with triumph,
bid for
salvation from vanity,
&
To conquer each ambition,
solicit to
incubate your dreams..!!!
