I Promise....

Here is a beautiful and meaningful series of lines....(u can call it a poem if u'd like :P) but they are a set of lines ripe with meaning if u ponder and understand.......

and yeah i won't own any copyrights on this....coz i do not have the sheer brilliance to write poetry....so obviously this is not mine....just something I thought to be awesome!!

I PROMISE.........

If I had to promise you something, what would it be??

I can't promise that you would always be comfortable...

Because Comfort brings boredom and Discomfort.

I can't promise that all your desires be fulfilled....

Because desires whether fulfilled or unfulfilled bring frustration.

I can't promise that there will always be good times.....

Because it is the tough times that make us appreciate joy.

I can't promise that we will be rich or famous or powerful....

Because they can all be the pathways to misery.

I can't promise that we will always be together....

Because it is the separation that makes the togetherness wonderful.

Yet, if you are willing to walk with me,

If you are willing to value love over everything else,

I promise that this will be the most rich and fulfilling life possible.

I promise your life will be an eternal celebration,

I promise you I will cherish you more than a King cherishes his crown,

And I shall love you more than a mother loves her newborn.

If you are willing to walk into my arms,

if you are willing to live in my heart,

you will find the one you have waited forever.....

You will meet yourself in my arms

I PROMISE..............

Questions Galore.....

Another year has almost come to an end. As I reflect and filter through the past, regret fills me profoundly.....There have been many things that haven't simply gone the way they should have....but that is what I think...God has seen to it that they end differently. Many people have always complained to me that they simply didn't have the power to control many things in their life. I vehemently argue that one's life is always in one's control. You have the power to make and break decisions. My argument that a person can control everything in his/her life except maybe death....stands defeated today. I had the power to change the outcome of many things that happened this year. Yet i just didn't.I couldn't. So how can we explain this? Should I blame it on God or Destiny? I always thought that both GOD and DESTINY were figments of imagination of the human mind. ARE THEY??? Or is there some simple answer to this riddle. I am no where near to figuring this out. M stuck and so desperately. Right now all m surrounded by is frayed relationships and bad memories. They say time heals everything. But how long will it take. I don't think some wounds ever HEAL....no i don't think so. Maybe they are left to serve a grim remainder of mistakes committed in the past. They never seem to fade in my life at least. I can only say this honestly I never meant to hurt the people who claim that i hurt them. Never ever did i think that all such shit would happen this year. It's been a hell of a bad year for me....and i can't make head or tail of the mess m stuck up in. I am sure many people would be always hoping that they get one chance to set right the mistakes of the past. How many get that chance??? One thing that strikes me odd is that if at all there was a GOD in this world...why isn't the world a much happier place to live today for millions on the street? Those who are rich are never happy or contended. Poverty and homelessness continues to be a raging topic cutting across continents. The middle-east is torn apart by War....where is GOD in all of this? What if man created the concept of GOD to atone for his mistakes? Jesus surely produced more bread from a single loaf. Lord Krishna could make rice appear out of thin air. Then y the hell are people starving on the roads today? I wonder how many could give a sane and rational answer to this. When i posed this question to my dear mother i got a whacking reply: Science can never answer the concept of GOD. Oh yes...here we are again revisiting the most profound and hard fought battles of SCIENCE Vs RELIGION. Reading Angels and Demons by Dan Brown gave me more knowledge than anyone could. Scientists are fighting hard to try to unravel the secrets of how the universe began. 2012 will surely unravel the mystery of Higg's Boson. I have full confidence in SCIENCE. Maybe it can explain the concept of GOD. Meanwhile the City is gearing up for New Year 2012. I wonder what is so new in the year? People booze,smoke and drive more rashly heralding the new year. As far as I am concerned everyday is a New Year, if you see it that way. I am very happy about the campaign launched against Drunk Driving in the city....oh yes i do not care whether the pubs and restaurants are registering a drop in sale of liquor, coz many others will go home warm and safe with this new initiative in place. As I admire another beautiful sunset, m left with more baffling questions than my mind can actually handle. Well I am off to pay a visit to dear Jesus in the Church......and maybe get to soak in the Xmas spirit there. Merry Christmas to Everybody!! Take Care and God Bless!

Baffling.....

Another day has dawned bright and wintry....an opportunity to appreciate the rays of the Sun (who happens to be my best buddy :P)....warming me up for whatever lay ahead. I unfurl the newspaper, to drink in the recent news across the continents.... It has happened yet again.....it has caught my eye.....the woes of the economy. Some hot shot economist.....ploughs on a well thought(but drastically empty) post on how and why the economy of the world suffers..oh yes there are a lot of complex terms like FDI's,CRR's, GNP's, not to mention the regular terms of price rise, rupee to dollar values and inflation's. Hasn't it ever crossed this columnist's mind that the common man would hardly go into the intricacies of the economy to understand why he has been handed the Pink Slip or how he would actually turn up at his doorstep to explain to his family that he lost their only source of income. No i would guess not!!

 Its not the problem of the World leaders (or the economist's ) that a family gets to lose a day's meal. Somewhere somehow a child is denied a right to education because his family cannot pay up for the exorbitant school fees. It is happening all around the World. The Rich seem to be getting more richer and the poor more poorer. The poverty line is a glaring example of this. So now what can the common man do about this? Bemoan his fate? Curse the leaders who seem to do nothing? TV news channels show a group of bickering men (and women too) falling over each other to announce their views regarding the failing economy. Whether their reasons are justified or not i do not know, but i do feel that the basic these people seem to have missed a few crucial lessons on how to respect a fellow speaker!! They bicker worse than fisherman selling their catch.  They do not even pause to take a breath let alone listen to what the others have got to say. Meanwhile it is the same story yet again...rising fuel prices (oh yes petrol seems to be the most wanted liquid in the world), ailing financial establishments, inflation shootin' up through the roof, the never constant cost of living, essential commodities being charged an arm and a leg', all are sure signs of a thoroughly mismanaged governing system....and yet again the common man pays for it. A dream house remains a dream for millions. Survival takes top priority in these challenging times.

 I hope and pray to ye God, that a miracle happens and the economy stabilizes all across the world for the Greater Good!! If you've got a Roof above your head and  food 3 times a day you definitely have to thank the Almighty coz that's something millions of people are deprived of out there. Oh yes!! its a jungle out there. One can never appreciate the importance of this situation unless one leaves the comforts of their present life to at least take a peak out at the world that lurks out of sight!! There are times when i do feel that the situation wold be much better, if all the black money stashed up in the world were to be revealed. M sure it would definitely alleviate the problem to an extent!!

In hope for a better Tomorrow for our 7 Billion Population.......:)
