Precious 3 mins!

There I stood…transfixed…unaffected by the passage of time. Nothing seemed to steal those moments away from me…neither the honking of the vehicles, nor the pitter-patter of the rain. 3 full minutes I spent wondering how 3 years had sped. Liitle drops of water trickled down hands, reminiscent of all the little moments that make up my day. Each day I meet a hundred different souls, but I know not who’ll leave their footprints on my heart. The digital clock across the signal clicks away in all its glory, each second, a reminder of life’s irony. As nature unleashed her fury in full force, realisation dawned upon me about things undone. In the blink of an eye, a whole year passes, what remains are the memories so precious!!:)

This is simply the best post I've read so far. What's amazing is how much you've managed to convey, in such few words.

Beautiful :)

He was...

Every child just dreams of one thing…to be loved by its parents endearingly, to be held close by the dear ones…and just make life beautiful for everyone…and so did I, as a child, dream about growing up as soon as possible, about being loved and cared for like no other. If only I knew that my journey with my father would end all to soon…that he would leave behind an irreplaceable emptiness in our lives…if only he could see where I stand in life now…if only… Papa for me and sis, was a hero in his own right…never the one to be afraid of anything, and even when death came calling, he put up a brave face. He was someone who was simplicity personified, an ever smiling, cheerful person who was really contented with his life…and someone who never worried about anything in the world. Hard to find people like him in today’s world, given that everyone just runs behind money and materialistic comforts forgetting peace of mind. Papa was always known as a righteous man, who never hurt anyone, who di...

Of dreams!!

I live in a world that's constantly on the run.. Where most people spend a good amount of their life in chasing things that are closest to their heart.. Chasing what we call Dreams!! Without dreams, life would come to a standstill.. A very mundane life living for the heck of it.  Why dream at all? Why not be content with what is without looking for something beyond? If only our spirits would listen!! In dreams, we travel a world of possibility, a world that could be so much more prettier than it ever was.. And in our dreams we travel the road less taken to reach the heights of success and happiness. What fuels our dreams is that single ray of hope that promises a better tomorrow .. That beacon of light that never ceases to die.. That vision of success which sets our souls on fire.. And that unmatched sense of accomplishment and satisfaction that comes from within.  I've been a dreamer all my life, a true Piscean that I am.. I've always found myself wandering out i...

Five fantastic years!!

My dear little (big) girl, as you celebrate yet another year of blissful existence, I can’t help the bittersweet feeling of watching you grow into your own person every single day. From being a shy 3 year old who wouldn’t converse in English when we first landed in Canada, you have grown into a confident, cheerful and joyous 5 year old who can just about strike a conversation with anyone she meets.  This year was indeed a big one for you, a year that saw you transition into the role of a big sister!! I was apprehensive about how you would react to having a sibling, given how little you are..but you surprised me throughout my pregnancy by being so wonderfully caring and considerate, in a way that only you can! From the moment we found out about the baby, you were all excited and cheerful, hoping and praying for a little sister and your prayers were indeed answered as we welcomed home little Aadya in August this year. You were my constant companion during pregnancy, feeling every mov...
