In Search......

In Search of Myself...


Living each day and each moment, I feel as if I am in search of myself.

How can I claim to know others, when I am not sure who and what I am!

I am in search –

What makes me happy?

Is it the peace, the smiles on faces around me, gifts, good words, delicious food, a journey to a new place, watching TV, reading, sleeping…what??

I am not sure…. because at times all these things fail to make me happy… and that is when I feel… I am yet in search.

What makes me sad?

Is it the difficulties of life, the tears, pain, failures, other’s misunderstandings, a crack in my favourite flower-pot, a friend going far….what??

I am not sure…because at times all these things appear too small to make me sad…and that is when I feel…. I am yet in search.

I am in search of myself…

I want to know what makes me happy and sad. I want to know my aim, my duties…. my demerits, plus-points and my priorities.

I want to know myself, so that then I can claim to know others.

"just for you" said…
Life is such a journey where the destinations are not pre-decided and you need to walk on the paths which you feel right at that very moment. So, there will be so many ups and downs, and in the midst of it, it will be hard to explore everything about you, because you'll change your way here and there when required.

But since you are in search of "U", sometime or other, u'll surely be able to find yourself. I m sure about it. U keep walking....and never stop. Dont look back to see what you left, look ahead what you need to strive for.

The Colour of Imagination!

-
The white canvas stands opposite me… As I hold the board of various bright colours… Still deciding on the first stroke…!
White can adapt any colour…any combination… Yet I fail to make a selection…!
This makes me wonder… Do I prefer it as it is…Serene, pure and clear…?
“What if I paint you red…?” I ask the canvas. The colour symbolizing two opposite extremes...of love and hatred…! “No, I have never been on the edges, I keep a balance…,” you rightly said!
“What if I paint you blue…?” I ask again. The colour of tranquility, royalty and freedom…! You are not convinced, “The uproar inside me also needs a presentation!”
“What about pink...?” I inquire. The colour of innocence, beauty and optimism…! You smile and say, “You want me to own the trait of feminism?”…
“Ok then the colour green…?” I say. The colour of nature, life, self respect and grace…! “But it holds a thin line of jealousy as well...,” you state.
Finally you question- “Why do you want to limit my horizon… A colour would only restrict my imagination…

Acceptance

This November as I peep out of my window, searching for the signs of Winter,
the city smiles at my imprudence...

It throws some rays of burning sun, The salted wind and sandy cram
Introducing itself to me all over again,
Repeating its name, repeating its name

“I have given you the power to earn, Strengthened your feet to stand, to run
I have given you the shelter, the haven,
The today and tomorrow of success and fun’

I have accepted you with open arm, Have showered on you all my charm.
Yet you feel detached – disconnected,
It makes me sad, I feel offended.”

This November as I peep out of my window, searching for the signs of Winter, the city puts me under several allegations.

“Accept me” it pleads, but I am lost in my own reflections. “You are right’ I begin, “but even I am not wrong.
The impression of something on me is rather more strong.

I am longing for my town, my native destination
I miss its warmth, it love, its affection. You have given me the power to earn
But it has taught me my firs…

Before I go…I need to be sure… You are happy without me… That the frowns have merged with the skin… That the lips are comfortable with curves... That the eyes are brighter, thoughts clearer… That you have moved on… to be happier…
