What is & isn’t!

Faith is not believing that God will solve all my problems;
It is all about trusting that even his not solving is for my good.
Confidence is not just being sure that you can
It is all about understanding that even if you can’t you don’t lose much.
Strength is not about winning time and again
It is all about being complacent, knowing that you fought hard.
Life is not just crossing hurdles after hurdles
It is all about getting up with a heave and moving towards the next one.
Hope is not anticipating good times
It is all about the conviction that even this will pass.

Chennai (Un)friendly?

No matter how much I try to forgive the ethnocentric North Indian, he goes a step further which forces to me extend my patience by another level. One thing is for sure North Indian will never understand the linguistic attachment of the Tamizhs. For them it is as bad as a separatist movement. I can understand that they never have had the need to defend their language but that does not ever mean that whoever does is wrong. To rate a city, a culture, a race as being unfriendly on this one aspect that they don’t talk your mother tongue is nothing but a gargantuan misjudgment. Well I am surprised that how people manage to defend it. Let us set some facts clear here: 1.        Tamizh is not a regional language, it is the official language in three countries(India, Sri Lanka, Singapore) which makes it more international than any other language in India (Hindi-Urdu – 2 countries, Bengali – 2 countries) 2.        Chennai is not one of those cities that will awe you and make you fall in love wit

The Temptress

                I shall not enter the sea I stood defiant, stubborn. I did not want to enter the sea as I would not be able to bathe in it, because I was not dressed properly. I thought just standing on the edges with waves touching your feet will not be fun. A person of coast has a special relationship with the waves and he becomes snobbish, snooty as with someone you love.                 So, while my friends moved away holding random loci, I started walking along the coast when she reached out to me by stretching a gentle wave of silky warm cloak and invited me in. She played with my senses by blowing air around my hair; she laughed at me and enticed me to come near nay challenged me to stay far. To hell with it, I wanted to take off my floaters and roll up my pants and run towards her and step into the warmth of this Arabian Beauty.   But I moved slowly cautiously and before I realised I got engulfed in her scent and she started tickling my feet and played with it and slowly starte

The Song of my life…………

Even when I pass into a trance and  forget my very existence and doubt the entire universe that I carefully built around me. I keep hearing some music, I don’t know the notes by-heart But it is familiar, it is something which is eternal. The music from my soul, the music which never fades, Full of life, hope and joy, it resounds from the depth of my heart. Dragging me into the familiar feeling of comfort, warmth No matter where I am lost in the cold, bleak desert of life. It is a different fact that I cannot see the players, Neither can I sing along but I shall remain alive as long as the song is played. It is that energy that asks me carry on when I think of sitting Asks me, to hope when I give up, to live when I think of dying It used to hurt me that it comes from a far away place and I am not there where it is played But now I realize all that matters is the beauty of the song and not the singer. I have learnt that even if the song is being sung for someone else – it is ok. I sh
