Hope the Spirit blesses me !

Guys,

I have registered myself to participate in a marathon being organised at my office. September 15th  is going to be the D-day. So I thought, why not use this opportunity to take out those running shoes and actually flex those muscles...more of move feet, pant like a dog..and run like a log!

But it is a fantastic opportunity to become fit and at the same time participate in a social event. I think it is better than keeping any personal goals, such a public event makes you more responsible and hopefully punctual. I am trying to keep a diary of my preparation for this run. Let me see if I last !

Friends

Many a times I remember my friends, and try and imagine what they must be doing at this moment in time, although we all are spread apart, some very near while some thousands of miles away, I feel some consolation in the fact that at least we live in the same age and time. Just imagine the world to be your home, and then nobody would be far away.

My run-ins with the past

Sometimes the past hits you, like a force out of nowhere, shakes you up with all the long forgotten memories, it’s so difficult to not be affected by the thoughts rushing in, those moments of joy crystallized forever, the faces familiar etched in your brain, those dark days, the lifting of the clouds, the smell of the wet earth, wish you could relive those times, wish you could be young again. Oh, where are thou – time machine?

Ahhh...dear Feb you are here !

Ahhh...dear Feb you are here
Most romantic time of the year

Uniting people from everywhere
They say love is in the air

But the lone guy dont you care
For tomorrow is always there

And maybe today shall also be
For one never knows destiny

So once again we all dream and smile
Surely a new story will unfold in a while

The Mind Series - Overworked

I need some inspiration in my life.
Where have all those brilliant people gone?

Who could change the world.
Who had it in them to master everything they came across.
Who had hopes and joy and a bright future.

Did I miss out on them purposefully?
Because I was not good enough to be one of them.

But today my life is so mundane.
With no spirit and no spark in the game.
I desperately need some sunshine now, beg the rain Gods to go away.

The Mind Series

Oh my restless mind…
When will you be in peace?
Remember they say it’s not as easy as it sounds
Everyone has to pay a price

You do not know what you seek
You know you don’t want it to be just another week
Lost in translation and turbulence
With no idea if you took steps forward or were hurled away into anonymity

You continue to struggle and hopefully find a response
But we build our own destiny and future
Is it not right? Then who is to blame?
Don’t look left or right

With intentions noble and aspirations high
Slowly crashing to pieces and no utterance of a sigh
Wake up now otherwise it’s never
Dont let yours be a story lost forever

Mind Control

I wish I had a mind I could call my own.
One which only I could control.

I would ask it to keep logic and reality together.
Far away from emotion and defnitely anything surreal.
