If it is to be, it is up to you. Help me see; not by seeing for me, but by showing me. Your purpose in life should be to discover the purpose of life itself. The first method for estimating the intelligence of a ruler is to look at the men he has around him. How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were? An optimist laughs to forget, a pessimist forgets to laugh. Love is when someone takes your heart and shatters it; but you still love them with the little pieces. No fear is healthy. Anything that happens, happens.Anything that, in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen. Anything that, in happening, causes itself to happen again, happens again. It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order, though. Nothing can be as annoying when your greatest desire is in direct contradiction with your most ardent principle. There's nothing in this life I wouldn't live without. Tell a person they are brave and you help them become s...

Just because you don't want to doesn't mean you have to Although wanting to does not always require you to have to Sometimes you need to just because you have to And sometimes you need to just because you want to And I don't want to anymore When I wanted to know I wanted to But once I knew I couldn't I realized I never truly wanted to You never truly want what you cannot have You never can truly have what you want Life isn't your custom made silver platter

Imagine somebody so grand that their delightful presence shakes your very soul   Imagine that person emanates a light beautifully incomprehensible; a delicious culmination of overwhelmingly brilliant colours   Imagine being stunned by that one's astounding grandeur; feeling a magnetic pull towards the magnificence of their humble aura and being so naturally transfixed you couldn't utter a word or even want to   Imagine feeling so enormously ecstatic that you could float weightlessly into the blue of their limitless sky   Imagine a life whose being alive in it self constitutes the purpose of living   Imagine that person is you   "Feel it. Breathe it. Believe it. And you'll be walking on air."

In view of the recent applause-worthy display of greatness on the part of our Indian athletes in the CWG, I was propelled to think about and question my own patriotism. In a country where Sachin Tendulkar assumes the place of a demi-god it is clear how proud we are of our country's successes. However, this pride is wholly based on patriotism. What is patriotism? It means "great love for one's country". That definition makes me wonder where this love comes from. I think that patriotism is just a scam. It wouldn't come naturally to you. The same way we feel good about ourselves when we achieve success, is how we are induced to feel when our country does. Thus we strive to do things(or do we even bother?); win laurels for our nation. In the bargain, the government earns some goodwill but more importantly its ego of feeling like it's the best is massively appeased. That explains why, in our schooling days itself we are influenced to feel patriotism every time we s...

Tethered and twisted; Tethered and twisted I lay in the sand. Fumbling and tumbling and lost and down on the ground, Groggy and bloody and clumsy. I am unreachable. I am wasted and thrown. Blotched are my scars of the night. I am broken beyond repair, Nobody asked you to come fix me. You couldn't even if you tried is one thing, I'd rather you not is another. Untimely is this occasion. Blasphemous is this situation.   I am where I am You're where you are; And you're where you are Twisted and devious Jumbled and knotted You are All that you are I am All that I am Look now, there your carriage goes Without you Run after it lest you miss it Why should I, you question, When it won't stop for me? I give you that knowing look you know so well And say For if you don't it shall leave you behind You then give me a knowing look I know so well And say I'd rather be behind if it means being with you.
