A silent prayer

Dear God,

Give me tears, but give me someone to kiss them dry
Give me happiness, and give me someone to share it with
Give me a smile, and let me light up the world
Give me music, and give me a companion to dance
Give me pain, but give me a hand to hold through it
Give me love, and let me spread it
Give me hatred but give me the courage to counter it


Dear God, just let me be me, and make me a better person everyday

closure....

I have just returned from dubai and I realize that we all seek closures in our lives.
As strange and complicated as life may be, there is a best before date for everthing. And I mean EVERYTHING. If you leave it open ended and and let it linger on beyond a threshold, it becomes a liability.

On that note, I have finally thrown the Nina Ricci bottle out of the window. It was long due. It was long over and I was holding an empty bottle with no fragrance left at all, close to my heart.
It takes a heavy heart to get rid of it, but it was much needed.

Destiny

Sometimes you don't know what you want;
Sometimes you know, but you don't want to accept it.
Even when you accept it, you don't want to say it.
Maybe you tell yourself, that it isn't right.
Maybe you tell yourself, that this is not how it is supposed to be.
You tell yourself, this is not how it started off.
You try to design the ending in your head, defying the truth.


Sometimes you just need to switch off your mind, and accept that you are crazy.
Sometimes, you just need to let life take its course.
Sometimes, you just need to let destiny knock, instead of trying to write it!

(Dis)Coloured

Just when I thought that colours were draining off and I had begun to see my life in black and white, I stumbled upon something dis-coloured, with a shade of gray.

I had had it for 6 years, but looking at it this time, was so different. It shone bright in a different perspective. It taught me to appreciate the beauty of life. It told me that life is always full of colours.. we just need to open our eyes and see them.

Now, I see colours like I did never before. They fill me with joy, they fill me with happiness, they fill me with excitement, they fill me with anxiety.

I don't know how long this will last, but I am happy about the (dis)coloured perspective or the lack of it!

P.S. purple is the colour of the week :)
