Choices

When the choices are not that simple

I've been fighting with myself for quite sometime now

this internal strife has been going on for quite a while now

its easy to choose between good and bad, happy or sad, sane or mad

but what to do when the choices are not that simple..

when you have to choose between what you want and what you had

when the silver lining of the cloud starts fading

when the light at the end of the tunnel disappears

when your patience runs out

and you are tired of waiting

when it becomes difficult to overcome your fears

I cry out in frustration

the path is for me to choose

I don't know what is worse

to win or to lose

take the road less traveled

or the one always taken

but if I choose one

I could sorrily be mistaken

should I grip it real tight

or just let it go

do I trust my judgment

or go with the flow

do I keep my mouth shut

or speak my mind

I'm not really sure

but its a matter of time

before I must choose

which path is mine

options are many

opportunities are ample

but what to do when the choices are not that simple........

Work,as a Positive Distraction

Work ,as a Positive Distraction The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what it is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it, put your whole soul into it – every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have.”  John D Rockefeller III, Philanthropist. This quote has kept us going on in our life . It has helped me stay focused. We read many stories in newspapers, on the Internet, watch on TV or get to know when talking to others. But we never give a thought that we might experience this someday , I guess we are humans living on hope and optimism. Future is unpredictable , no one knows what it has in store for us. Personally & Professionally. I thought to myself –  I can’t prevent adversities or tragedies coming my way, but what I  can do is accept reality, handle situation(s) with maturity and move forward in life. So ,   go around and check on how others manage such personal tragedies. Easier said tha...

Be Yourself ………. :) :)

Be Yourself ………. :) :)   Every once and again, the enormity of the realisation that amongst the billions of planets in this infinite universe, we are the only known planet to have life, and that too so many varieties simply boggles my mind.I cannot believe that we were put on this amazing planet to be ordinary. How can it be possible that we were given bodies, emotions, opportunity, senses, intelligence, both IQ and EQ, colour, talent, humour, mediums of expression... and all of this just to lead ordinary lives, have ordinary thoughts, or to amble through life with ordinary relationships??? Our lives are like a train journey.  Imagine it as a black line on a white canvas. There is a starting destination which is birth and the final stop which is death, and in between a bunch of “common to the majority” stations like school, job, marriage, kids, grandchildren along the way. Your friends, family and spouse are the passengers on board your train, ...

#I_Have_Learnt.....

I've learnt that if someone says something unkind about me, I must live so that no one will believe it.  I've learnt that you can make some one's day by simply sending them a little note.  I've learnt that the greater a person's sense of guilt, the greater his or her need to cast blame on others.  I've learnt that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.  I've learnt that hotel mattresses are better on the side away from the phone.  I've learnt that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.  I've learnt that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.  I've learnt that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life."  I've learnt that life sometimes gives you...
