Spring time!!!

As the nature unfolds itself from the snowy landscapes and chilly nights....

The colors of spring around are brighter than just fluorescent lights....

The trees sprout new leaves and wake up from the long sleep...

They recover from the harsh winter and get ready to dig their roots deep....

The grass spreads like a flooring thick and green...

And the earth's ceilings bright, blue and serene....

The sun casting warm and bright rays...

The life giver creates wonders in many ways....

The cool breeze sways the trees and makes them look lazy....

Touches everything and carries the fragrance of something hazy....

The flowers blossom giving of sweet scents...

Attracting bees and paving ways to a new set of events....

The violets, the yellows, the reds, the pinks....

Nature paints the earth with breathtaking shades and inks.....

The sun slowly disappears behind the horizon with a blazing spectrum of colors...

But the star struck sky still sheds a little light in the after hours....

And as I lie here under the vast expanse of awesomeness...

I wonder..one always has the key to their own happiness....

Let nothing control you...neither the wounds of mind nor the injuries of flesh!!

Join the nature in spring and start everything afresh!!!

The clouds, the wind, the rain and the warm sun rays..
Nature works in mysterious ways...

The clouds show us so many familiar shapes..
Against the scorching sun, they shield the earth like drapes...

The wind sets in and the trees start to sway...
The air swirls the dust up and blows it far away...

Then come the great flashes of light...
And the thunder too wants to show its might...

Just when you think the fight is not gonna stop...
You can hear the first rain drops hitting the roof top....

I forget the world around me standing in that rain...
And I can no longer cry about the fall, the scratch or the pain...

As my teeth chatter and I soak to the skin....
Mom calls me, but I just don't wanna go in...

I remember the days when I didn't bother about loss or gain...
And I wish I were a child again.....

Strike a chord...

Try imagining life without music.... Can you? I dont think so....
How would u describe a day that has gone by without listening to a piece of music, humming to yourself or singing it loud??
Thats when i say u ve just passed a day, mightve fulfilled all your tasks, done some great work, were kind, mean or have done nothing thoughout the day..doesnt matter....
but uve not 'lived' that day....

"Music is the essence of life." One who said this couldnt be more right.
It can reflect any emotion anyone ever felt. Feeling elated, thrilled, afraid, sad, romantic, affectionate, angry...anything...music can capture those emotions spot on.
You might fail with words to express what u feel, but music does not give up on you.
One who can create such music n connect to people or just enjoy music on that level is...i dono what word would best describe the idea, but may be.. creative, blessed, fortunate... or just alive.
Now dont get me wrong here.. all i mean is.. being musical is not all about learning, practicing or performing something...its about discovering your soul.

But some of us dont give ourselves that time or thought to do that anymore.
I for one, had stopped listening to music or singing to myself for a while. I was so preoccupied or just obsessed with what i wanted to achieve that i forgot to be 'me'.
I worked like a maniac, got what i wanted too, but i was restless, couldnt enjoy my success...cos i just wasnt myself. I couldnt quite put a finger on what was wrong, tried to find reasons in others and the so called-situations. But you gotta search yourself for answers first.
Youve gotto take it easy once in a while..explore what u like to do and enjoy yourself.
And this is what im gonna do. I am joining music classes again and i know im gonna rock it.

So turn up the volume and tap those feet..
sing out loud..dont bother who s around...
cry over your recent breakup just this one last time to a 'tadap tadap ke'...
or just doze off to an old classic melody...
whatever you are doing...
let music do the magic!

MAN MADE!!

Centuries have passed since humans have proclaimed themselves as the most intelligent and omnipotent species that walk on the earth. And what not did we pursue in these few million years of evolution. One of the most prominent inventions of man can be dated back to 3500B.C., being "the wheel". Since then, there has been no looking back. Electricity, plastic, cement, paper, incandescent lights, ballpoint pen, roads, microscope, telephone, television, automobiles, satellites, computers, www., penicillin, insulin, pacemakers, contraceptives, ECG, space shuttles, rockets, aeroplanes, sky scrapers, multiplexes, escalators, coffee machines and on goes the list. You name it, and we 've got it!

In every genre of our daily life, the contributions of great inventors and inventions has been inevitable. Be it medicine, climate, travel, communication, education, cooking, security, house-keeping, entertainment(of course) or any other aspect of life, man has made a tremendous progress providing 'tools' for a better life.

Having said all that, i probably cannot turn a blind eye to the other side of the coin.
Where man has discovered the presence of ozone layer as a protective blanket around earth, man has also invented the so called "ozone holes".
Global warming, a phenomenon being largely aggravated by human activity in recent years is reaching its destructive threshold, and i know it sounds cliched but hardly anybody is "doing something about it".
Ball bearings..a relatively commonplace object....see how innovatively they are being used these days. On one side, they provide friction-free movement and on the other side, man is making weapons with them to kill another man...and for what?? Huh..who knows!

All in all....this is what man has made out of life.

But i am not complaining..cos i ve got no right to...
At the end of the day, i am one of the 6.7 billion people in the whole wide world,
who genuinely bother about anything but their own trivial world and aspects pertaining to it....
And i am writing this to say how ashamed i am of being so selfish regardless of the things happening around me...

I just wish.......

July 3rd, 2008.
Might have passed like just another day had i not...........

But nevermind..i guess there is nothing called 'just another day'....
As i always say..
Everyday leaves some incidents which makes you a different person tomorrow....

I just wish it makes me less vulnerable...
I just wish it teaches me not to make the same mistakes....
Huh..after all... i just wish it makes me a better person than yesterday....

But again... how bitchy life is..... merely wishing doesn't fetch fruits....
One has to exhaust every damned cell in his body to get what he actually wants....

Now...ill go to bed.....
Wishing that all my wishes come true...
Wishing that only wishing is enough.......

P.S.:don't bother about the shit i wrote in there..... just have a nice sleep..... goodnight.......
And ya...... don't forget to wish........ ;)

Lots of love...
Bhavya karne.

How would you feel if a pair of eyes stare at you when you go to bed...

How would you feel if a face observes you while you are alone at home...

How would you feel if an unknown man follows you wherever you go..no matter where.....

How would you feel if your life is serving as an uncut, uncensored story to someone..24 x 7....

scared?? helpless??? horrified?? nauseating??
silly?? stupid?? foolish??? funny????

I felt all of them at once......
It is an episode in my life which i would love to forget..but might not be able to......
stress hormones were on a high..muscles under constant tension....reduced attention span..
tachycardia..insomnia.. what not!!

With all these happening in my body, i saw a man, dressed in a black coat and a small blue hat..
looking at me all the time... peeping from behind the curtains or a wall....
or simply standing in front of the door and staring..... just staring.....
dark face like a stone with no expression..the only striking feature being the pair of blood shot eyes...eager to take in what they are seeing..every second..just absorbing the content..
as if to keep a watch.. to know... know everything about me.....

I was terrified... to an extent that i spent many sleepless nights looking around my room to make sure he was not there...and i found him..wherever i saw...every corner of the room.....
I vacated my room and started sleeping in mom's room....thought it could set things right....
but there he was again....with the pair of eyes boring into me.... i closed the doors and could feel him standing right in front of the door....with his gaze fixed to the door as if expecting to see me the moment it opens....It was like living with him all through the day....yet not knowing anything about him....

It was hard.. hard to breathe... hard to think of anything but him looking at me...
hard not to scream...not to cry....not to become weak..at least outwardly.....
And it was hard to avoid.....forget....adjust....adapt....or get over with....

I lost something which was more essential to a man than oxygen or water...
to live...not merely exist....
I lost my peace of mind.......


Days passed...like they would never change.........
But like everything else in the world, they had to......
Life teaches us to endure..to realize.. to accept... to change..
and to live a better tomorrow.......

And the fact that i'm writing this here..
with a relatively sound body, mind and soul proves that right.........

P.S.: hope i dint bore you.... this is my first.... so.........
