Wondering eyes...

Among thousand eyes,

Only one that wonder,

yours.

It’s a deep blue sea..

enchanting

And serene...

A spellbinding glance

from beguiling eyes.

Getting back to My Blog..!!

My Blogging started nearly six months ago. It was just following a passion, sharing what I read & things I stumbled upon. It was a journey and an adventure as well; living in a virtual world reading,writing and reading again....

Then I had to start another journey in my real life, It got busy to busier. So the virtual world was on a pause. Complying to my blogging buddy’s persistent requests and my own conscious, I feel now it’s the time to start; start again.

Learning the balance and finding the sweet spot is a must when following a passion. Otherwise a vital variable might miss from the equation.

Had a taste of a busy life and I learnt 5 things..!

There is a saying ; that some things in life we need to have a firsthand experience to know exactly what it is like to be. Having a tight schedule is something like that. During my short experience; I've learnt few things. 

Even though these experiences are recent, my feelings are long lasting.. 

My first alarm goes off at 4.35 a.m and my second alarm screams at 4.40 a.m. The 5 minutes between them is a bliss..! 

Here are few things I figured out..

Getting ready for an oral exam of a language that I’ve never spoken before..

Yeah.! It’s scary and depressing as it sounds. Exam is only three days away and I went shopping...

My first childhood fandom; The X-Files..

Granted that it was scary and not good as a tv show after 9 pm, I loved it and I still do.

I was 8 when I first started to watch the series, in 2003 and I instantly became a fan. 

Ever since that little girl remains the same, waiting till January 24^th to watch the new season,

Mulder and Scully again.

If you are like me, please raise your hand I’d like to give you a high five. Yeah.!

*In this post I’m talking about the character Mulder not the actor David Duchovny whose acting is beyond expectation and brilliant & I assure you there are no spoilers about the new season.. So feel free to keep reading....

Rest In Peace Alan Rickman ...

Our Snape; hero who was hidden in the plain sight.

I first saw him on the big screen as the rude, boring Potions Professor.

His acting was brilliant. We saw only the evil professor until the very end where we saw his memories. And ever since he is a hero for us.

Visiting the vulnerable.. Take your heart with you ; they don’t care what else you bring.!

This vulnerability may come from a terminal disease, a sudden illness or an accident.

Some of these disability situation can be recovered over time. 

They assist psychological help during these recovery process. 

But in the meantime, family members and close friends have a responsibility.

I currently visited a friend of my dad’s and he was suffering from complications of a stroke.

He was a teacher and he is also a karate black belt winner. I think this pretty much explains his physical and psychological capacities.

His family members has been a great support to him though I couldn’t accept the person who lends him books to read.

The person I mentioned above lends him many religious books. I always accept reading any type of book but in this vulnerable position, it’s not the best time to read about the uncertainty of life.

Tell me I don't know. What love is I'll never know...

You told me that you fell in love,

Like Romeo to a Juliette,

to be a Rama to Sita..

Was it her fetching face.?

her catching voice.?

You said you wanted a kindred spirit.

to haul you in altruism,

and to hold you in benevolence.

2016 : A year to Merge with old hobbies and Meet new ones.

Old hobbies, not so old but found only a few months ago.

New hobbies, they are on the way.!

My pencils and sketchbook, my blog : the old buddies.

They made 2015 awesome and bearable for me.

Pencils, notebook and sketchbooks were staring at me while I was running up and down with busy few days. They look forbidden and ignored. But if I could apologise I’d explain how much they helped me to stay on the edge in 2015. 

When we don't know where we are going.......

“If you know where you are going, you’re not going to find anything interesting.” – Michael Levitt, Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry,2013.

I came across this quote when I was surfing through a twitter page of nobel laureates & this got me thinking.

Sometimes we are scared to take a leap or to step out from our comfort zone because we are terrified of the outcome, or where it will lead us. According to the quotation above, he was one person among many who didn’t  know where he was going. Apparently he won.

There’s a beauty in this, a wonder to make us strong enough to take the leap. Not knowing where we are going is like painting a sketch. We have an idea about how it will turn out, yet we carefully select our canvas and colours to paint it to be vibrant.
