Quotes

"You might be more talented than me, You might be more smarter than me. But if we get on a treadmill, there are either of the 2 things that's gonna happen. Either you get off first, or I die on that treadmill. It's that simple." 
- Will Smith in one of his interview.

Conversations of Brida and her Master - Paulo Coelho

“Brida’s eyes filled with tears. She was proud of her Soulmate.

That is what the forest taught me. That you will never be mine, and that is why I will never lose you. You were my hope during my days of loneliness, my anxiety during moments of doubt, my certainty during moments of faith.

Knowing that my Soulmate would come one day, I devoted myself to learning the Tradition of the Sun. Knowing that you existed was my one reason for continuing to live.’

Brida could no longer conceal her tears.

Then you came, and I understood all of this. You came to free me from the slavery I myself had created, to tell me that I was free to return to the world and to the things of the world. I understood everything I needed to know, and I love you more than all the women I have ever known, more than I loved the woman who, quite unwittingly, exiled me to the forest. I will always remember now that love is liberty. That was the lesson it took me so many years to learn. That is the lesson that sent me into exile and now sets me free again.’

I will always remember you, and you will remember me, just as we will remember the evening, the rain on the windows, and all the things we’ll always have because we cannot possess them.”

― Paulo Coelho

"Chaand" - Gujarati


Prayaas karyo fakt tari chandni jiti levano 
Bhoy bethi janu chhu hu tu thayo chhe pela akash no ..


Moko na apyo te, tane sparshvano
Maro prem tara daag pun shwet kari det
Jo tu thayo hot maro..
Tari chandni ma rang bheri det


Jivti hashe aa duniya pela Suraj na dam par
Pun hhu bus tari chandni thi chhu 
Karva de ene kataksh apdi ekalta par
Hu aa virah ma pun tari sameep chhu 


Hasva de aa duniya ne mara rato na jagran par e jane shu
Aa akhon tane maanta kem thakti nathi 
Amaash ni raah ma kem suti nathi 


Aje fari amaash chhe ne prem par mara, mane vishwas che..
Avish tu fari tara meet(aabh) thi chhupi chhupi.
Jaishu fari apde prem ma doobi 


Shodhti farshe tane aa duniya door akash na padkhe
Jyare mara toh hath ma poonam no chand hashe... 


- Radha

My faith in love..


I miss you and can't go to sleep, it is specially hard today because you just won't leave and making me miss you even more.

Everytime I close my eyes I keep searching for you looking for your face everywhere in the crowd, I need you to be here. 
Darkness frightens me, emptiness kills me but just your being can heal every bruise, I believe. 
I never have wanted anything more than to be with you for this very moment, eternal moment.
I toss and turn and look for you and.. Here you are.. your face. So enchanting, so ameliorative. I get closer to you and here you are almost besides me, calm as alwyas, looking into y eyes anf holdinh my hand. 
Your touch that ends all restlessness anf the way you make me look beautiful though your eyes. Now you are everywhere. 
It gets tedious that i can't help wearing the color you like , eating what you love and arranging my hair the way you do them for me. 
Because even in your utter presence, i carry this pothole in my heart, longing to run over to your place, jump into your arms and loose myself to you once again to be at peace. There is nothing more serene and peaceful that this embrace. and I regret nothing if the world ends leaving me to you. 


In the ugliest seasons of life our flower again blossomed reaffirming my faith in love. I promise to imbibe our love into my breath so that if it ends, so do I.

When you were 'away'!



It has never been this way before
You not being beside is something that doesnt happen often
I know you have gone miles away
still You are everywhere, your lasting impressions, your smile, your hands, your eyes.
All with me, everyhwere.
May it be saptak or zen, sullen mornings to lonely evenings, dull days to empty nights, no one to make stupid complains to, no one to show extra care to
as if every passing second is incomplete


You are imbibed in every moment i live, in the air I breath, in the dreams I sleep with.
If only I could 'pause' this dimly passing life for a while,
wait for you to come back and click the 'play'
I would never have a memory that doesnt have you.
Because living is not it is, if not lived with you.

One of My Favourite Poems

Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley
The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of Heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single,
All things by a law divine
In one spirit meet and mingle -
Why not I with thine?

See the mountains kiss high Heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea -
What are all these kissings worth
If thou kiss not me?

Loving - An art of growing into the other

Loving is just letting the other grow in you. Whenever you meet a person for the first time u come to know a little about him and there is nothing in you that asks you to remember his name or his face; This simply is knowing. Suppose you feel quite good in his company and your meeting become frequent; This is the time when you start exploring the other one. You share memories, tastes, likes and spend time together; This discourses take you a step closer to that person. And this is when the person is able to create a space for himself in you. This small space in you will then start piling up all the moments or picuters thoughts or anything that even remotely relates to that person in it. Whenever you meet him, he is in your dream or you are thinking about him, this small magic box just opens up and fills u with his feel and fragrance. The more you share, communicate, get closer, this part in you grows deeper and bigger. With the growing of this coffer you grow more close to that person and before you realize both the things happen mutually together. The more closer you get to the person the more things compile in the box and the more it compiles, it indulges you more into the relationship. Sooner or later you just start relying on it whenver you are alone, unconsciously this box opens up and keeps you floating into the fond memeories and suddenly you start feeling happy delighted you feel substantial as in something is alive in you. And this unconscious opening of this virtual box actually makes u feel the absence of that percon in reality. That is missing the other one.  When you start to realize the very presence of this box in you they say you almost have fallen in love with the other one. Remember the box is nothing but the other person itself with all those snaps and glimpses in that box you have let the other person grow in you. This happens with all of us. There are many boxes like this who have settled themselves in our hearts. We call them best friends. Eventually when anything exciting or mournful thing happens we cannot reserve it to our hearts. This boxes in our hearts compell us to share all the things with them too. This is the the most beautiful thing that defines friendship: Sharing. But there is something beyond this too. Out of all the boxes which have a little control over your heart there are some which are enchanting and appeal to you much, so much that they drift your attention from other boxes and outside world too. They eventually ezstablish themselves fully in your heart so much that your own heart resides in that box itself. This is what they call "I lost my heart to him". When this exact thing happens to the other one too, when even you let yourself proliferate in other one's heart fully without any restraints or bars. There is a time when you ultimately stop needing your ownself and start believing that box in you as your heart, when it starts pumping the blood in your body and gifts you emotions, it is the stage when they say: "In love as if two bodies one soul".  Now is the time when ypu become the very image of each other. This is when telepathy becomes very strong. Because even if you are miles apart you are into each others' boxes. That is why all love in this world is letting the other grow in you. You certainly have no control over it. There is nothing more powerful than this love which has mutataed over a period of time. I have experienced this with all of my near ones and may be that is why I dont believe in Love at first sight. Sicne the box can never grow as much as it shud at the first sight. The people who believe in love at first sight probably dont even remotely know what love is!! How heavenly growing in each other is!!
This thought even makes me conclude that breakups do have strong reasons. People just don't break up because they are bored. But its only after that stage of sharing you realize if the box of that person is strong enough to over rule all other boxes. If its not then probably he is not the one for you. And it is the wisest decision to cease this growing intimacy right then. With such breakups you feel void in your heart and this is because the box just looses its grip on you and heart becomes vulnerable to any kind of other box that can feel the void instantaneously and make you feel secured. This is why people fall in love immediately with the person who was near them at the time of their break up. Its like there was already a box in your heart wanting to grow but because of the sudden void it got to grow faster and bigger. But remember the box of the person you broke up with, wont leave instantly actually it never does. What gets in once never goes out. Its only when some other box with brighter illumination fades it and that is what you call forgetting or moving on. After a precious close relationship you just move on but you never are done with it. This thought even makes me realize that its not playing to fall in love more than once. Yours is a free heart and you don't control the growing of the other in you. If you do you just are trying to control what is uncontrollable and that is why it pains! The key to happiness is to let as many boxes grow in you as possible and let your heart decide what box grew the most and could replace your own self with it.
Don't Love Hastily. Let it grow. Let it grow thoughtlessly.
