Dilemma...

-


Its my choice to make,
dreams and fantasy or,
reality, should i face...
Vague but lovely,
harsh and true,
the difference lies,
between the two..
How do i know
what should i choose,
When either i can't
afford to lose!


P.S : Sometimes its so difficult to choose.Should you give up and face reality or keep hoping for your dreams to come true?

    Ah! This surely is a tricky situation! I'd been through it a lot of times. But as it is said, follow your heart. The home decor ad which features Shah Rukh & Gauri has a superb caption, "Whatever you choose, it's always the right choice". 

    P.S: Awesome post!

    There are always two paths.. One - you have to compromise and give up your dream.. Two - A bit risky but you go for it hoping everything will be alright in the end.. bcoz it is ur dream.

    the happiness and satisfaction you get in the 2nd path is immense compared to the stuff you get to compromise for in the 1st path. Always.

    I have chosen 2nd path and I am yet to reach the destination but the journey has been superb till now :)

    You also summed up your situation very well in few lines.

    Just go for it. Youth comes only once. Later in life everything depends on the path we chose now :)

"Say you love me"

They slept close.Slowly, his hand slid inside her clothes.She didn't react, pretended to sleep.He touched her and it made her face him.She opened her mouth to ask but his lips stopped her.Withdrawing, he asked her, "say you love me", she could just nod.She does not remember what happened next except the excruciating pain enough to bring tears in her eyes. Next morning she asked him "I told you I love you then why did you hurt me bhaiya?" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This post is an attempt to highlight the fact that child abuse is not something that happens in others houses only.It could be happening right under our noses, making us ignorant.It is not something to be ashamed of and swept under the carpet in the name of society.With a little awareness from our side, we can make sure that it doesn't hurt to be a child. ----------------------------------------------------------

Little packets of hope...

Things are not going your way, Black is more evident in the gray, Not a smile on your face, Nothing gives you solace.. Everyone and everything appear distant, In favoring you, luck seems hesitant, You feel time is not on your side, and there is nothing you haven't tried. Just when you think it can't get worse, Something happens and life seems like a curse, You stop smiling and give it all up, Not half filled, its an empty cup. I am the same as you, Having felt this,in times old and new. But now when i look and ponder, It all makes perfect sense, i realize in wonder. The cup was always filled up to the half, I found no reason to not laugh, There are little joys around in every season, Always believe everything happens for a reason. Just when you think its difficult to cope, Look around, You will always find , Little packets of hope!

I don't wish for a fairy tale....

Neither the red roses, nor the candle light.. No popping of the bubbly on a moonlit night.. I don't live on the rainbow, the huge castle isn't mine, long tresses are Rupenzel's, without the genie i do just fine! Not the sea shore bonfire, limo is too huge for two.. Dont want a life queen size.. only love n comfort will do! All of it is impressive but am not looking for materiality.. I dont wish for a fairy tale.. just a beautiful reality..
