Insearchof Happiness...

Here I am.. surrounded by many of my so-called-friends. I'd rather prefer to stay alone with all strangers around me who are good and fair enough to me. I can't pretend to be happy when I'm not. I can't pretend to be a friend when I don't want to be one. At times, too many exams are surely a problem.. but there are other problems too.

Never call anyone your "friend" because none is actually a true friend. You are too innocent and you trust the acquaintances and call them your friends. But the fact is, they aren't your friends. They care neither for you nor for your feelings. They are very pretentious in their thoughts, words and actions. This may not always be true.. but this time, its true for me.

The best way to stay happy forever is, wake up every morning n look into the mirror to admire yourself.. flow with time throughout the day.. and at the end of the day, forget everything and sleep like a baby.

A Tribute

They are the best. They always give me the best. They are the first ones I ever met, whom I want till my last breath. They share my joy and sorrows. They take care of my every single need. They love me more than I love myself. They teach me the best lessons of life. They have a solution to every problem I face. They enjoy my success and take pain in my tears. They gave me life and showed me what's love.They are my best pals.. my Gods. I wish I could write more but I have no more words.

They are none other than my Mom and Dad. I'm too lucky to have such lovely and lovable parents.

D for December!

On drowsy days, I have dreamt of a decent December dazzled with delight and decorated with diligence. It wouldn't turn out to be a dark nightmare filled with dull, dumb and dreadful days. Disgusting dangers would keep at distance and my days detailed with determination would surely be deprived of disillusioned dirty depression. Devilish and demonic friends of mine wouldn't disturb me. I'd not disclose my definite decisions to the desperately disastrous and domineering people around me. Definitely, I'd have delicious dinners with my dear ones and darlings.

Lets be polite

We have friends, acquaintances and the people whom we know by face and name. Our brain has an excellent capability to remember and process all the data about them and also the data that they give about others. Time and distance might separate people physically but the brain doesn't erase the data that is previously stored, and the heart doesn't stop missing the good old days. Heart is the most fragile part of human body (I can say this though I didn't study biology). It isn't as intelligent as the brain and hence gets hurt for little things.

A famous proverb says "Four things come not back: the spoken word, the spent arrow, the past life, and the neglected opportunity." So, think twice before you utter a word because it isn't easy for a hurt heart to heal.

Do not ignore your friends or at least don't let them feel that they are ignored. If you have no time to meet them, a phone call or sms will be fine. The most important thing, do not forget to respond to your friends' calls and messages. Though you have no time, don't say "I'm busy" when they call you. It really hurts. There's a better and polite way of expressing the same. Be it our friends, acquaintances or the people whom we know by face and name or even a stranger.. there's nothing wrong in being polite to them (If not friendly, at least be polite). That way we wouldn't hurt a heart.

Surprise!

Little things in life give a lot of pleasure. If these little things are accompanied by surprise, then the pleasure we experience is everlasting. Such moments of everlasting pleasure can never be forgotten. These are the moments that make us smile whenever they come to mind (even at bad times).

Our near and dear ones give us surprises to keep us happy. Our friends leave us surprised with their wonderful ideas. Life gives us surprises too. These surprises could be positive and negative. So, we should always expect the unexpected to happen in life to be happy forever.

Sudden

Unexpected

Rare

Prodigy

Remarkable

Incredible

Shock

Epiphany

If I had a wish to make, I'd love to leave the world surprised by the surprises that are surprising.

Cooking vs. Blogging

Perhaps I'm the first one to do such a comparison of cooking and blogging. One can blog about cooking but can't cook about blogging! So, here's an exposition of "Cooking vs. Blogging".

1. The prime ingredients to cook a dish are edible products like vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts, etc. while the ingredients to write a post in a blog are words and sentences.

2. A huge list of ingredients wouldn't form a tasty food if one doesn't know how to cook the recipe just as the group of words and sentences do not make sense without an idea or a thought process.

3. Knowing a recipe is of no use when one doesn't put forth an effort to cook it. Similarly, one wouldn't be a blogger when he/she doesn't make an effort to write down their thoughts. I'm sure, all of us do have thoughts but only few of us put them into words.

4. The taste of a dish varies when cooked by different persons though the recipe is one and the same. This is because of the persons' experience and signature of cooking. In the same way, the style of writing of a person makes the difference when he/she tries to convey an idea. The style or signature is the extra ingredient.

5. To complete the process of cooking, the icing on cake or garnish on a dish is important too. Making a blog readable by making use of pictures n humor is similar to this.

6. A tasty dish not only satisfies a hungry belly but also improves its appetite just as a good blog attracts the audience who would not only enjoy their journey of reading but also find pleasure in it.

7. After writing a new post in the blog, one could come back and makes changes to it with ease. But making changes to the food after it is cooked isn't always easy and sometimes it is impossible too.

8. Presence of mind is very important while cooking but blogging can be done with any state of mind. Any emotion can be depicted in a blog.

9. While cooking, one must be quick and careful in adding the ingredients at appropriate times as any loss that might occur to the recipe would be irreparable. It is like a practical examination in the chemistry laboratory. Irreparable losses wouldn't occur in the case of blogging unless an abusive or provocative language is used.

10. Both cooking and blogging are fun to do. The more one enjoys doing it, the better the outcome is.

Finding courage

Here I am,

a gutless lamb,

longing to find a clue

that leads me to you.

Where have u hidden,

leaving me pain-ridden?

I'll find you very soon

at least before June.

Lets not stay apart

'coz that hurts my heart

oh my dear,

am I clear?

I do fear,

when you are not near.

Show your true face

held high in grace

and pull me off the cage

'coz all is need is you, courage.

This is my third poem (Specially dedicated to my Eremophobia). The first two are Lovely Morning and Call me
