Lifeless

Sky is endless
Sea is boundless
Sun is marvellous

Streets are walked alone by me
Songs are hummed alone by me
Love is too apart from me
Friends know nothing of me

Gone into my own shell
Lost the charm once I had

Aloof of everything around
That magic in mee is too hard to be found

Sky is endless
Sea is boundless
Sun is marvellous
Yet the world seem so LIFELESS!

Be the miracle!

"Be the miracle..." Does that line ring a bell? That is the line from the movie - Bruce Almighty... Quite a nice movie, but, ofcourse it's bollywood version was made adding up more spice with the typical Bollywood tadka. If you still didn't get which Bolly flick I am talking about, then it is - God Tussi Great Ho. But, of course I prefer the Holly one, not because I prefer Hollywood movies more, but, because they kept it simple and didn't make a mess out of it...which ultimately did happen in GTGH... And comparisons are bound to happen since its taken up..or lets say inspired of Bruce Almighty.. But, I am not here to give a review of GTGH....

I am writing this because the line which I have mentioned earlier actually 'moved' me. It is a simple thing which Morgan Freeman (God) tells Jim Carrey (Bruce) to do.. But, it holds great depth. We are a bunch of people who believe just what we can see. And we often end up asking proofs. To believe in God, we need a miracle happening right in front of us! And why should He always perform a miracle in our life? To make us believe? So much of doubts..that we at times don't even trust ourselves... Why do we need a miracle, when we ourselves can be one! A simple thing said with sheer beauty!

We are the miracle. Miracle is when an impossible thing all of a sudden becomes a possibilty and all of us have this wonderful magical power to do so. But, the important thing is that we should believe - Believe in our capability.. Have the will power and the guts to 'bring the change'. Just sitting over at a corner and blaming your luck ...blaming God..won't do you any good. Get up and be the miracle.

Too big things I am speaking about...Am I? Yeah I know.. all of us have got another excuse... "Its easier to speak about it but difficult to actually implement..." Yeah right...Come on...Get a life dude... That is what exactly means about being the miracle.. Ever tried something other than just letting things to happen for you? Waiting for things to fall into their places on their own? Come on..get moving... no one else will do it for you..

Even in the smallest of things in our lives..we can be the miracle.. we can do the unexpected... Think of the ways, the things which you were not able to do until now...things which you wanted to do but couldn't just because of some silly stuck up reason of yours...Its high time since miracles has happened around in our locality, right? Lets just surpise them by being one.. By doing those better things of our life which the world didn't expect of us...

Smile when you are in the biggest of troubles...Get up when you have no where to go...Fight until ur last breath...You have the power...Be the miracle and glorify Him...Can you be one?

What's In A Name?

Funny, but as soon as we hear a name quite a lot of things run in our mind! And the first and foremost thing that crosses our mind is - RELIGION! As soon as a name is spoken up, and bang on, our ears convery the message to the nerve cells and the grey cells judge the religion of the name spoken! Quite a mystery of a process! A Khan or an Ali is categorized as a Muslim. A Kapoor or a Sharma has to be a Hindu while a George or Matthew is deemed as a Christian! What a wonderful  way of categorizing people and our incredible brain does it all in seconds! All of us are so much cool in judging and sizing up each and every one in front of us.

Rightly written by the talented dialogue writers of the movie - A Wednesday and superbly delivered by the master of acting skills, Sir Naseeruddin Shah, ' Insaan naam mei mazhab dhoond leta hai' (Humans find out religion in a name!)

Divisions! So many of them! A line is drawn almost every where! Why do we love complicating things? I mean is being a Khan or a Sharma or a John far more imortant than being a human? As if this wasn't all...We have castes, races...and what all. To add cherry on the top, we have one more addition which has become quite popular now - GOTRAS! I wasn't even aware of any such division, but I was enlightened a few months back, thanks to the controversy revolving around it!

How much more divisions do we need? Can't we just raise ourselves above these divisions for once and for all? Forever...Possible??? Even the Almighty and the most powerful one might be thinking, 'kitna badal gaya insaan!'

So, next time when anyone asks what's in a name, you exactly know the answer. Don't you?

BACK FROM THE BREAK

Took a long long break.... And in the last 2 years, so many things happened and so many things changed... But changes are bound to happen. There is only one thing that doesn't change and that is... Everyone has 24 hours in a day... The way you use it is what brings the change!

I don't know how i used my 24 hours of every day in the last two years...Do i have any regrets? May be... I would need time to sort that question out!

K..So , from now on i'll update my blog...hope so regularly! Till then chew on this...

"Do not avoid a void in anyone's heart...may be you too will have it one day!"

Hey don't chew too hard! Was just thinking and that line cropped up in mind...and of course its mine... Who else can write all nonsense stuffs like this? Hahaha....

Have a great day!
