Genuine

"Whats Genuine?" Lies said to me
"Love is for real", Genuine said to me
Lies just winked and said "Thats my friend- Trick,my dear"

Hope

Hope is a desperate word.
It's like a lump in my throat.
Sinking in my stomach.
Hope is a dead flower,
desperate to bloom again.
It is a denial mechanism
To not fight your battles today
But leave them for another day.
But then again, sometimes,
You only have hope and
All other times choices waiting to be made!

Love

Dropped mom & dad off at the airport.  I had this feeling I was choking. This pang of sudden loneliness. This hole in my heart. Will I ever love anyone as much, I thought. A small voice told me there is no other way to love but without any measures.

What Happened? What went wrong?

All kind of things.
You know, the kind of things that could go wrong.
In my case most of it was wrong.
To begin with, I was wrong.
Then circumstances were wrong.

Why what happened?
Nothing much.
I was brave and I moved on.

Two Thousand and Eight

BACKPACKING- One thing I wanted to do before I die was to experience travel in its best form- discover different cities and eat different kinds of food. I was blessed this year to have the ultimate trip with a like minded friend. More madness together. :)
Lesson Learnt: If your soul really wants it , just travel and you will cherish it FOREVER!

LOVE.LOVE.LOVE. A great man once said,
"Some things in life are best experienced , not expressed in words."
Lesson Learnt: Be grateful every single day for you are loved and thats a beautiful feeling. Love more every single day because you are blessed and together.

WORK- and work and then more work- The interesting developments and stress when on a project and the satisfying feeling at the end of an assignment. Challenging & Fun nevertheless.
Lesson Learnt: The thing called Job Satisfaction actually matters!

RECESSION - It was crazy the way with the day after day of terrible news of the Wall street kept leaving an impact. The insecurity at your own job, the sentiment of the market, suicides by families and just depressing news.
Lesson Learnt: Never have too much faith in anything thats man made. When one door closes another one opens. Patience pays.

INSECURITY - We are fighting something constantly new everytime in our lives. It was something so up close and personal. I can still hear the firing and grenade bombs. It scarred the beautiful heritage of ours and more importantly scarred our minds. I feel extremely disturbed by the fact that Human beings are capable of such extreme hatred and then there are others who are just heartless bastards in power.
Lesson Learnt: You are lucky to be alive. Cherish it. Make the most of it.

DAD's HEALTH- A sudden angioplasty that Dad underwent got me thinking about the lives we take for granted. He is recovering and now stronger everyday. Thank you God.
Lesson Learnt: Make sure your parents go for a checkup every 3 months. Dont take anyone's life for granted.
