Our Poem :) An ode to the new year

The white knight said to his heart throb: “I am thinking that, If ever dreams & energy had a shape, I would perceive them and use them to be better man. If only dreams were reality and all the reality a dream and if ever those dreams came true, I would never come back in reality. If ever imagination has a limit and could become reality, I would go back in time and live my childhood again to live every moment as if it was my last and to Carpe Diem. If ever love had sense and was always understood And there was a scale to measure love then I would tell how I feel about you.” I can’t help but think, he continued: “How much more can be achieved, if ever there was a limit to desires and we could reach it from within. If only sky was the limit & the only borders across countries, If only we were so clever to keep others happy forever and ensure that there were no tears only smiles all around. If we realised life does not shrink as we grow. If only the world was a simple place and pe

The Three Wise Monkeys

The three wise monkeys – Mizaru (see no evil), Kikazaru (hear no evil) and Iwazaru (Speak no evil) were sitting on the shores of a foreign sea and contemplating about the ways of the world and suddenly Kikazaru asked “What is your greatest discovery in this strange land?”   The ever pensive Iwazaru became more pensive and was thinking on the lines of human nature and goodness of the universe when Mizaru quipped “The Greatest discovery is finding each other and not to forget the fourth one Shizaru – the one who does no evil.” All three nodded in agreement when Iwazaru added “Like all the truths of life this might seem very trivial at the first glance but to find the right people with whom you can resonate and speak your mind, people with whom you can be yourself, people who become your friends for life even after you speak with them for a few hours, people who become a part of you and of whom you become part, is one of the greatest boons of our lives.” Kikazaru went on “If you ar

The Madman

"I have this feeling for the past few days that my mother ship is trying to contact me. I am getting this very strong vibe from strange places and at strange times since when I lost my transiterator. Not surprising, since they would be worried. They can never think that I lost it; they might actually be thinking that I am imprisoned by you guys and you are trying to interpret their signals. Little do they know that you are these puny little fellows and simple minded too" said the mad man sipping the tea I bought him. It had become a routine for me. I would buy him tea, biscuits or food and he would keep me engaged for some time with his words. I started this just to ridicule him and for time pass but I found that he actually has some interesting stuff to tell. But lately he was being ridiculously weird. "You earthlings have an ego that is bloated enough to assume that you are moving fast towards the fringes of science when you have not even managed to enter the realms o

Living Life the Zen way - realisation at the Beach

What did a few hours of Corporate Finance do to a group of students? Some fell asleep, some lost their sleep, some got terrified and some gratified (with the group studies). And then there were the six of us(Appy, Ashish Bhai, Binay, Panda, Laddoo and I)  who went bonkers and decided to go the beach at 12 30 AM And off we were to Jumeira Beach by taking a cab.!!!!  The moon was bright and beautiful. The stars seemed like small pieces of glasses strewn over a black velvet blanket that were reflecting the light of the moon and the Hunter Man (Orion) emerged slowly from behind the clouds to stand guard for us. The waves we whispering their welcomes. Cool air in our hair and cool sand beneath our feet we stepped into the surprisingly warm water.... The surprises nature offers us subtly, never end. After a good deal of playing in water in a mildly 'nicotine induced high' we sat on the shores with the skyline of Dubai behind and the endless sea in front of us. This serenity even

Wanderlust

With song in my lips and joy in my heart, I shall march ahead on foot or on a cart. I don’t know the path, I can't see my goal, I cannot be contained in a small rabbit hole. I shall not stop; I will wander and roam, My world lies outside and not in my home. My legs will not stop and I cannot take rest I want to keep searching to find out the best. One life is too short to see the whole world, but we always have time to sing with a bird. My travels will not cease, I will never rust, will walk even to my death, I am wanderlust
