preserve memories ...

Memories are haunting
thoughts of death are stalking
they told me that they didn’t know
if you will ever be able to grow

My heart is aching for the time we lost
but this waiting was part of the plan
you weren’t mean to leave
but rather just to teach
about the precious life’s we lead

~Memories 11/30/12 [Peaks of Inspiration Blog]

I was not around much lately as i did not have the mind to. and now i will be away again for some days...
meanwhile it has become cold and dark outside and many of you will soon appear with Christmas pictures... allow me to keep on with bright color for a while and the ease of light - even though it's just memories these days :)

evening thoughts ...

taking the beauty of life for granted

I feel like I fell in love with your words
and your voice
all before knowing your name.

Maybe in another life
we’ll meet again.

-my evening thoughts

heartfelt tears

Welcome friends. I know the blog post has been heavy lately, and to those who have been so faithful in reading, thank you. But I want to make sure you know, it's not all tears. Life is beautiful. Joyful. Funny.

A dear friend of mine was telling me about a dream she had last night. That she dreamt and woke up with a drumful of tears and bitterness. But it was just a dream. Most people believe that real men never shed tears, not to mention crying. The very fact that they do laugh demands that they do the opposite when situations reverse. Some situations must milk tears even from the driest eye
When talking about the tears; you shed when your sins weigh heavily on you and consequently groan for mercy and forgiveness. All saints without exception must shed tears at some point.

the month of celebration

chingam

For Keralites this month is very special. Today is the first day of the malayalam Month 'Chingam', the beginning of the New Year as per its traditions. A great significance to the farmers! This is the new year day as per the Malayalam Era ,my favorite month in the Malayalam calender and so ... My New Year Wishes to all Keralites!

Have a memorable Onam this year!

dreams finally come true?

lucid dream?

 “When oh when will my dreams finally come true?” you ask, restlessly tossing and turning in your bed late at night. “I’ve been on this Earth for so many years and yet, here I am — without any of my dreams existing in my reality

will come true?

"We grow great by dreams. 

All big men are dreamers. 

They see things in the soft haze of a spring day 

or in the red fire of a long winters evening.

Some of us let these great dreams die, 

but others nourish and protect them. 

They nurse them through bad days 

until they bring them to the sunshine

and the light that always comes to those who sincerely hope 

that their dreams will come true"

- Woodrow Wilson

Today is the Day

My mind is racing at a faster pace than my heart. I don’t even know how to start. Maybe it’s the way we said goodbye, the way I’m now noticing every single lie. The whispers, and giggles all seem to be true, and now seeing the things that you taught me were all new. The question is, how can things so intimate come so quick, I’ve been with you from the very start. I’ve done all you’ve asked, and you’ve done it all. Not for me, and not for yourself but for a different we, an item too toxic for my twisted desires to see. Entertaining someone else’s time, confusing your misfortunes for mine. Why is it so hard to let go, let me leave, let me be happy with someone who wants me. I give you permission to laugh and smile, and think to yourself how you allowed it to last a while. The thing is you don’t know how many times I’ve wanted to go, how many times my bitter soul wouldn’t let me leave. Just know for my sake the memories are the reason for my current remains.

Bottled Emotions

You will never fully understand some things until these things actually happen to you. So be kinder ... I will not stay forever. Only long enough to clear the path of debris so hope and joy can reach you. Only long enough to cleanse your eyes so your vision will be clear enough to recognize goodness when it comes. ... Every breath you take is in sync with someone's last. ... You are as beautiful as the love you give, and you are as wise as the silence you leave behind.

“She’s waiting for me…”

I was waiting for time to catch-up with my love for you. The love that began in the dreams and prayers of a little girl in a warm bed with wide and sleepy hopeful eyes. I am waiting on distance to become less and less, for flight dates and air fare, overstuffed suitcases and goodbye tears to be trampled by hello kisses. I knew your heart before I knew your face. I knew the soul before I knew the man. For these reasons, when I read your first 50 words or less, I knew you. My spirit rang and tinged and chimed and belted out a song, “I think I could love this man.” I waited for decades for your arrival, so even though you were surprised, it seemed natural to wait for your heart to heal. The months seemed like minutes, the weeks were seconds, the days were blinking moments, and finally time caught up with the grown woman who had wide hopeful eyes and was laying down in her warm bed. On a bright autumn morning, I received the heart that I treasure the most and the feeling is the single most satisfying memory I own. I have received the heart before I have received the man… and I am waiting for him; it feels natural.

Transit of venus 2012

Taken by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory from geosynchronous orbit. (click photo to enlarge)

Our sister planet Venus as it plunges just past the solar limb and crosses the sun’s face. SDO took images in several different wavelengths, including extreme ultraviolet that shows the sun blazing with fierce magnetic field lines. Venus looks like it’s going to get burned above a hellish landscape as it sails across the sun’s face — it’s more than 67 million miles away so there’s no actual chance of that. This is the first time that a satellite has taken such high-quality images of a transit of Venus

Great photo of the transit taken from Chicago. The flight path of O’Hare International Airport was between camera and the sun, leading to an incredible airplane silhouette alongside Venus crossing the sun.

the treasure you look for is hidden in the ground on which you stand

Patience is a hard discipline. It is not just waiting until something happens over which we have no control: the arrival of the bus, the end of the rain, the return of a friend, the resolution of a conflict. Patience is not waiting passively until someone else does something. Patience asks us to live the moment to the fullest, to be completely present to the moment, to taste the here and now, to be where we are. When we are impatient, we try to get away from where we are. We behave as if the real thing will happen tomorrow, later, and somewhere else. Let’s be patient and trust that the treasure we look for is hidden in the ground on which we stand.

Will someone make me happy?

At any moment in our lives, we can change our mindset and choose to be happy

All right, here’s the sitch, I haven’t blogged in a while and I’m not planning on it anymore. It has nothing to do with me not having fun because I’m having a good time. It’s because I was blogging in the beginning because I missed something/home and was unhappy. But I’m not anymore, in fact, I don’t want to go home!!

 Will someone make me happy?

No one can make you happy.  If you are waiting for someone to come along and fix your life, you are in for a huge disappointment.  There is no person who can “fix” you.  You are a human being with some strengths and some weaknesses but are not fixable by another human.
You need to work on yourself.
The best you can hope for is to find someone who really loves you.  Who is deeply flawed, but genuinely loves you, expresses that love by trying to be considerate of you in tangible ways, and is trying to improve, that is it. You need to work on you.  Just like you can work on your body with physical exercise, you need to work on your emotions, mind and soul.  The closer you get to being a complete person the closer you will be to finding happiness. The closer you are to being a complete person the more likely you are to be in a happy relationship (or to do what some people would call “find your soul mate”).  And get ready cause he/she will be a work in progress, just like you.

Illusion

Buddhism says that our current way of life (called Samsara) is an illusion

 The Buddha said, “Oh, Bhikshu, every moment you are born, decay, and die.” He meant that, every moment, the illusion of "me" renews itself. Not only is nothing carried over from one life to the next; nothing is carried over from one moment to the next.

For the past few months I don't quite understand what has happened to me. I have come to know about the idea that we are all one single consciousness, and have felt frustrated since knowing this world is an illusion. And if you flee, if you escape, will you ever truly be free?
Yes,Life is an illusion. We always think with the help of love, friendship, we can remain happy forever. But in reality it never happens, everything come to an end....and on that day we are again alone, battling the life in our own way with no one to support.Then, why we don't want to accept this fact, I think the prime reason is we want to be happy, happy forever.Life is an illusion, death is the ultimate truth. We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.Accept it! :)

Dreamy Synth

It is said "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
There is beauty in every life, every moment.
Here is to finding it in every moment of my life.
I am just one who looks for the small moments in life to find pleasure in.
The chance to do something important is often found in small moments and small acts.

Masterful Comeback

I remember reading an article by Santigold on vision a couple of days ago. Santigold described how...

“We can decide what we see for ourselves and for our world, and make our vision a reality.”
 Santigold is who she is:  she doesn’t sway her artistic vision under the waves of pop music.
You will fall in love with this World as the songs of nature are soothing with fresh beats
and deep lyrics. The love beats combine well with the intriguing green elements.

Fill The World With Happiness.

Every day I am reminded of the problem within today's society...the lack of positivity, happiness and enthusiasm towards life itself. Life is meant to be filled with Love of every kind, it is meant to be filled with wealth of every kind and it is meant to be filled with happiness of every kind. This is your life . YOUR life. It doesn't belong to anybody else.
I just met with Dr. Nizar Ahammed, Psychiatrist. I've met him once and felt comfortable and he's someone I'm able to talk to; During last visit he said something about happiness and he scribbled a picture of a smiling Face on a piece of paper and gave it to me

Still crazy after all these years!

This is just a blog of my random thoughts. This will be a collection of everything from my thoughts, to funny things I find on the net (including tweets and FB status) to whatever else I decide to post.We all have a story and random thoughts that swim through our heads; they are what shape us into who & where we are today.Do you go and find random FB posts and comment on them or are these people we know?

Still Crazy After All These Years..
I still remember the first time I saw Google from an internet cafe I started using the internet around 2000, which was the one that led to all the ones I use today – Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, etc.

It was like a whole new world.

L.O.V.E. Redefined!

most customizable

Blooper- I am creating this blog post in order to understand myself...what I feel ...
I did not know what I was truly capable of till I started to love myself. In the earlier days of my venture;It is important when people can know of what is going on around them even if they find it hard to pick.Love is an interesting word in our culture. It's usually connected to emotion, feelings, and passion,Love in our culture leaves us feeling empty and disappointed. Love redefined God's way can transform your life.

Winterize...It's too hot in Trivandrum

The days are too hot,the sun is scorching its really unusual, So stay indoors.
Summer season is not only loved for its warmth and sunshine, but it is the time that marks end of an academic year for students.

Hot weather risks!!!

Your body is affected by the temperature of the environment around you, resulting in the following as it rises:

    * Ambient temp: 20 ° C (68F) Comfortable. Heart rate normal.
    * 25 ° C (77F) Light sweating.
    * 30 ° C (86F) Discomfort: Blood cools at skin surface. Concentration affected. Moderate sweating.
    * 38-41 ° C (104F) Heat exhaustion: Heavy sweating. Rapid heart rate. Tiredness. Nausea.
    * 45 ° C (113F) Heat stroke: Sweating stops. Hot, dry skin. Core temperature rises. Fainting. Danger of organ damage and death.

estimate how much fluid to drink each day

Drink lots of liquids: As you will be losing more fluid than normal, it's important to top up your supplies. The best way to keep yourself hydrated is to drink water, and to sip it, rather than gulp it down.
However, drinking excessive amounts of certain fluids can bring problems of its own. You might think a cold beer is exactly what the doctor ordered, but in fact, alcohol dehydrates the body, and consumption should be kept to a minimum. If you can't face drinking lots of water, non-carbonated soft drinks, such as fruit juice, are a reasonable alternative.

the Bathing Festival

Be sensible about exercise: Do not exercise vigorously during the hottest times of the day. Instead, run, jog or exercise closer to sunrise or sunset. Take things slowly and adapt to the pace of life in the sun. If you feel breathless or your heart is pounding, stop what you are doing and try to cool your body down, for example, by taking a cool shower. Rest if you feel faint or dizzy.

Waiting for entering the new season with "renewed focus and energy"

Happiness is a Journey and not a Destination

I Resigned From my Job

it's okay for someone to be alone

But it’s some sort of personal issues which made me take a decision of leaving my job and take a quiet vacation for my own self apart from my work. And thus I have mailed my resignation to the concern in the middle of this month; my decision, which gave me a nostalgic feeling and made me stick up hard to my decision.

"This is the time to reconnect with myself, a time where I can talk to myself, debating all the questions and answers that are bouncing in my head. This is the time of reflection. This is the time of acceptance and letting go, .... The reaction of other people to the end of my relationship has been one of the strangest factors in my experience… it's difficult to convince most people that it's okay for someone to be alone, and that life doesn't end and activities don't stop"
-Tiny Buddha

I can't quite see the end ahead

 Rather than to live a suppressed life hiding in the shadows of mediocrity and remaining a latent soul obscured from the greatness that lies deep within, I would rather emerge from the darkness and reveal the beauty of my light to world. ... What is it you seek in your life…. love, happiness, health and wealth? .... The more things you love, the more you are interested in, the more you enjoy, the more you are indignant about, the more you have left when anything happens

Falling Apart...

“What do you do when you can't bear it anymore?…

do you wish your significant other did something differently?

 I can't bear this pain anymore. I don't know how I've been taking it. But I can't do it anymore. My heart aches and hurts so much that it consumes all coherent thoughts in my mind... All that I can think of is wanting to end this pain... I really cannot take it anymore...I don't feel sane or rational right now. I need to sit down and think. But I can't think without thoughts of you flooding my mind. My mind and thoughts are centered around you so tightly that there is no space even for thoughts of myself...what do I do?

Untold Love Story

"She is so cute! 

Why is she so beautiful?

 Is it so that i am loving her. 

In every angle,

I find her no defect.

 Her eyes, her lips,

 her hair and most touchingly her voice....

gosh! it kills me. 

She has made my life.

 She is everything to me"

It was really strange, they were holding hands

Slowly their friendship grew stronger and stronger but the heart of the boy gave new name to his friendship. He started loving her desperately and so...desperately!
Now, as we know, in every love story misunderstandings block the way, it too happen to his love story which was a tragedy.  Reaching somewhere, the boy had to make apologies for loving her, for not able to convince her with his love, and taking their relation into more than a friend but her reply made him more suspense. She said to him that she never heard the words and he never uttered to him and she was a big.........??? that black space at last was his curiosity. He could never ask what was it. He had no idea after that what he should be doing. He felt depressed and lonely. In the crowd also, he felt solitary, more over he would close his room door and get lost into his own world without saying a word with his friends. His friends on top never made an attempt to give him company with his sadness.She said "yes!...now I am realizing that he really loves me" followed she said, she is not going be in relation with anybody and that's forever.why is that? Is it that she has got another guy, or has she been betrayed by her true love in the past or she has got some other reason that even after realizing there is someone who really loves her and as we know true love is rare thing to achieve, she cannot except his love. Question mark with no answer.He got more depressed with his epilogue of the story turning into tragedy. Nothing was helping him and he kept on thinking what was there that he could not understand her or she didn't understand. But unlike other guys, he didn't go into drugs and all, doing that he thought it would make his love more cheap and rather he decided he would be strong and not to give up so easily. He said to himself he would meet her once personally and pour out his thoughts and questions.The first part of the epilogue has shown its color and now let us wait for the second part to show up. Let us see what is lying behind after his secret meeting with her.....lets wait and watch!!

In the crowd also, he felt solitary

today was a fairytale...

it started off with her leaving me alone

 sorry i haven't been blogging for so long.
sooo lazy to blog these days.
i finished watching the first half of life!
oooh so awesome.
everything is okay.
ending in like two days?

It's been soooooooo long since my last entry

 You Know You Love Me,

You were everything, everything, that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be,
But we lost it...
All of our memories so close to me just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending.... :'(

saw this quote on Pinterest, and it really left me thinking…

 And, I’m pretty confident that She left something within me that will last forever <3

long time ago in a very far away land...

it's absolutely impossible to make someone belong to us

A lot of you have been in the same position. The precious memory of that moment, I suppose it's become my way to relax in the midst of this whirlwind I'm living these days... Sandeep Sagar
How I wish for someone who'll spend with me, who'll tell me her problems, and I can tell her mine. .... I told her that I loved her, my sister. I told her that in that moment I loved her more than any other person.... the precious memory of that moment when she hold my hand seeing how much she already cares about me as her brother and how concerned she is about the important things in life. Now She's gone, still thinking about her everyday. And I know feelings was hurt and she can blame me.And now she's..Now she's far far away

so close; yet so far away

Your grace never failing

You might have a downcast view of New Year's Resolutions; the time when all your failing past resolutions are again brought to mind. A time when you look at yourself in the mirror and choose not ... May you find grace and mercy in: the tears, the losses, the failures; the pain; the weaknesses...may it propel you to greater strength. And may you love and be loved; forgive and be forgiven...and ... for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning;

-Sally McRae 

2012, She is a happy girl and I love her more...

ALL MY L.O.V.E !

powerful route to happiness. Here's how...

 "Love is not a one-day-holiday, it is who we are"

“You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation…and that is called loving. Well then, love your suffering. Do not resist
it, do not flee from it.Take a step back from your narrow thoughts and visions and just focus on one thing: BEING LOVE

Love and Happiness To One And All :)

key to finding happiness

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

In fact in our society, I find that while some speak of unconditional love, very few of us actually practice it on a daily basis 
Love. Love is us. We are it. It is our essence.

Love is what each person whether consciously or unconsciously hungers for. Love is what feeds us, and it is what sustains us.You have to part with one and all. But losing your dear or loved  one is very excruciating, particularly when somebody captures your true love. Of course, you can know the sentiments and emotions. No one has been approved .True love knows no bounds, no limits. True love has no expectations and holds no obligations. True love – a love without conditions – unconditional love – is where we want to keep growing towards, on our journey of spiritual evolution
