The First Day of The Rest of Our Lives: Today.

Today's the day I want to start

On a journey far away,

A long long way to go

To somewhere I want to stay.

A place where's it's easy

For dreams to change into reality

Ecstasy that will live on

As long as eternity.

I want to sing, I want to dance,

I want the world to know

That, here I'll find my soul, my heart,

And myself, tip to toe.

I want to take everyone I know

In this world of mine,

To live with me in that home of joy,

This place that's so fine.

But what's a better thing to do

than bring that home here;

And make my world beautiful one,

Where there's only love and no fear.

Today's the day I want to start,

To change the world to make it better

Without bombs and guns and boundaries

Where religion is no more than love.

    Ah.. That's too much to say. But, anyway, I'm glad you think it's good.

    though that kind of makes me feel good, it's really more than the credit that can be given. thanks anyway.

    A very well-written piece. Starting life afresh is something that everyone relates to and you have done a great job in expressing your opinion- from a very personal view to one that is at a more global level. I hope that all your future pieces will have a personal touch. I relate to every word that has been written, except for, maybe, the last two lines. And all this with Raag Gujri Todi playing, phenomenal stuff.

They say, failure teaches us lessons- Lessons of endurance, lessons of not giving up, lessons of not worrying about it, and lessons of being happy. It teaches, but do we learn? You guessed it. I failed. And, for some reason this time, I’m kind of happy about it. I’m a CA student, by the way. I had written an exam a couple of months back, and got the news of failing it the second time a couple of days back. After working hard for oh-so-many days and going through all kinds of books, the result was failure. Anyway, I was attending/volunteering a students’ seminar when the results were released. At first, I was really shocked. Like, really really! I didn’t feel like talking to anybody, but I did want somebody to talk to me. However, just to inform all the ‘related parties’, I sent a text message saying ‘I flunked’. Different people gave different reactions. One thought (from my indifferent tone) that it didn’t really bother me, and said, “you anyway don’t seem like you’re...

It has been more than a year since I've made absolutely any contribution to my blog. So, if there is anybody, any single person in any corner of the world that follows/at least reads my blogs, I'm sorry for having kept you waiting. I don't quite know the exact reason why I haven't written anything. May be, it was just a writer's block or may be, I was so stuck in my life that I couldn't make time for it or even, may be, because I didn't find anything intriguing enough. One more reason and I think this is the real one, could be that I had started writing a short story around two years ago, and I never got to finish it. I just couldn't find the perfect ending. If you're a writer(!?!), you'd understand the disappointment. Whatever the reason was, I couldn't bring myself to write anything all these days. However, I do keep writing in my mind. All the time. More or less like J.D. from 'Scrubs'(A doc intern who narrates his own life to h...
