Your Heart's Desire


So since I started writing here, I have realised that come what may, as much as I'd like to, I am absolutely unable to write over the weekend( Ya,ya! Don't give me that look!Weekend is supposed to be free time and more time to do what you'd want,bla bla). But I have tried and it really really doesn't happen. In fact on certain weekends I am not even able to open my laptop ( I check my mails on my BBerry).So my point or rather my question here is, why am I not able to do something ,if I want to be able to do it so badly,that too on a time that   is technically mine and free from the shackles of mundane working.Maybe cause you don't want to do it so badly or the priorities just keep getting mixed up. And then there is always this thought at the back of your mind about having no constraints about your timings.
This is how most of our youth also gets spent,thinking and procrastinating that we have all the time in the world to do whatever we wish to. That we will write that book, take that trip to that exotic island, complete that degree, find the love of your life eventually! The moment in the present is just for enjoying ,for taking it easy..for having the best time of our life.
And then one day those moments have gone...and life just seems like a long list of things to do which we have to complete...somewhere in those lists, what we really want to do,what our heart desires get lost and there is either no time or just too late to achieve those milestones and fulfill those desires.
I know there are various factors and reasons that some of those desires don't get fulfilled which are not always pertaining to the fact that we procrastinated or let time slip by us.These could be personal issues, circumstances where responsibilities and obligations weighed on us. But a lot of times the reason for these unfulfilled desires is the courage that we lacked, the self-doubt that we wallowed in, the if and buts that we kept plotting in our minds like x and zeros.And we all know there is no right answer for these short-comings except that we need to have the courage of conviction.
So even if it may be superbly late in your life, go after those deep desires that you keep buried in your heart.I know being responsible is the curse of aging and recklessness the bane of youth...somewhere striking a balance is the key to a fulfilled life.
I found my key by not overdoing anything whether the good or the bad...yeah the good too...
PS: Alains Morisette sang in "Ironic"-finding the man of your dreams and then meeting his beautiful wife...Life is like that...but then if he is the man of your dreams,he will not have a beautiful wife cause that would have to be you...:)

Sometimes its just about Girlfriends!

On one of those rare evenings when I finished my work early ( or just forced myself out of my workplace),all I wanted was to share some coffee and conversations with my girlfriends. It was just one of those days when no one else from my circle of influence would do..No husband,no family, no colleagues...No one! Just like that there are moments when all I'd want is my girlfriends  ( Sorry bouys!) I dont know what it is about sharing experiences and feelings with your closest friends,but it is deeply satisfying,like a boulder is lifted off the shoulders. Its not so much about meeting them everyday and sharing every tiny detail of your life with them,but there are things in your life that can only be expected to be understood by your girlfriends. Like a broken heart, like losing anything or anyone...yes,they do get it better than your husband/partner ,anyone. Your work frustrations, your mommy woes, your womanly wimps,your mood swings, your bad hair days! It takes a woman to ...

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Anyone who has been at this age milestone, will more or less agree with my non-sweaty things that I am about to list below...Well and if you dont then you either havent reached that milestone yet or we just agree to disagree then- Orgasm is overrated! (It is!) You wont have it every-time you fuck someone! Lets just say there are other ways to get one as well! Does Not matter if you didnt get their name ,right! Apologize , Flash your most Gracious Smile and Move On.. Never mind if you didnt get invited to the hippest party in town! There is always the next one.. Your Mom/Dad not proud of you! Well..it does not matter in the end, as long they love you and you...  Your hair cannot be pretty everyday, even if you are model or an actor...You WILL have bad hair days. Get over it. You WILL spill that tea/coffee/wine on your blouse/shirt/dress just before the important meeting/interview /date. Make a funny story about your clumsiness and carry on with the meeting.  You will ...

Inside of me....it all ended

My soul died inside me, My heart exploded in angst, My body exhausted itself, My mind became comfortably numb. And all this because no one heard the voice inside, that was talking louder than the loudest speakers around. No one realised that yearn inside of me,that was seeking To fulfill it's desires.
