Love - then and now :)

Have been meaning to write this for a while - without sarcasm. But it is kind of difficult....to write about love then and now ! 
And watching Dilwale past midnight makes me think of mindlessness...... about that crazy little thing called love :P 


Then 
Strange that I found you in the most unlikely of all the places - in the pages of memory .
You were surprised that I remembered your address
How many cigarettes you smoked
And how your eyes crinkled in a smile....
And how you kissed and I cried ..
When we said goodbye ...

Now 
Stage 1. Level 1
She smiles. He likes.
She likes.    He loves.
She loves . He pretends.
          Game over 

Stage 2. Level 2

He stalks. She stalks.
He pretends. She pretends.
He confesses. She confesses.
He loves. She loves.
He leaves.She loves.
         Game over.

Stage 3 Level 3

He loves. She pretends.
He loves. She likes.
He proposes. She asks for time......
          PAUSE ! 

And then he opens his arms  Shahrukh Khan style  and says "Pandra saal, char mahine aur dus deen....Par piche mudke dekhna nehi chaiye . Senorita, bade bade desh mein , eise chote chote baat hota hain......"
How corny ! But corn sells :D !

A holiday with self :)

A long overdue blog about the path that I was seeking , or did the path seek me out ? Over the years the sheen of belief was wearing off and I was beginning to question the master about the magic - about faith becoming commercial, about what Bhaskar stated, "This is all about money".  Packing my bags off and going solo isn't very uncommon in my life, but this time I was not on work per se. Checking-in into the Ashram, was on my bucket-list for ever-since, and it was an amazing experience. Despite the crowd, the ambiance just reverberated with a mix of reverence, energy , faith, hope, prayer - and questions too ! Like I mentioned before meditation was not about spiritual pyrotechnics, but a metaphor connected to life. Like the corner I chose had a vantage view of the stage and despite a stench that started emanating from the corner, I just could not leave that place, for the view that corner offered got me stuck there. Life is like that, we are often stuck in the rut , ...

Morning bells are ringing ......

Heidi lived in Alps with her Alms uncle - I read this story in a book that was called The Big Big Story Book and it had a compilation of amazing stories that were my first foray into the world of English story books. Recently on a long flight I watched the movie much to delight of the young steward who was our attendant that night. My first glimpse of the Alps was from our flight ...the dawn breaking to spread the orange hues over the snowy terrain...looked mesmerizing even to someone who is not too fond of the mountains. Switzerland was beautiful, with its manicured terrain and flowers like pretty maids all in a row, picture perfect setting and breathtaking, like a touch me not porcelain beauty. Coming from my "elo melo" city I wondered how people managed to keep a country so organized , I have trouble keeping my room in ship shape...... No, I would not like to live there ......it's too distant and too cold ,but what I will carry in my heart is  the awesome time .......

rain on me .....

And the rains came....after days of heat, sweat and grime, suddenly everything looked washed clean , like freshly soaped linen ! The droplets hung on the leaves and the single rose in the bush, and the car got badly sprayed with mud....but who cares ? The sound of rain is the best music I heard in a long long time. And I could finally spot the elusive squirrel that was making a racket all these days and I just hoped the cat doesn't kill the squirrel....  It is a dog eat dog world...both the kittens died, one killed by the dog and the other run over. Only last Monday I was watching them frolic as I sipped my tea. Terrorism and unmindful killings do not have a boundary, from my garden to the world outside , no one is safe anymore. Just the other day I was thinking , these kittens are safe within the four walls of the garden and good that they have learnt to climb trees....but I did not foresee that they too would venture out. And my Tarot prediction on Facebook was ...
