Lost Friendship

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 21:14:00 +0000

I sit and think, as time passes by

What a great time we had past year

A true friendship, long conversations

Life, events, we had it all figured out

Laughter, caring, outings were frequent

Now I wonder where all that love went

Along the way, something went wrong

Friendship ended, hearts were broken

Deep down, I think you all wanted a break

Watching two best friends; drifting apart

It felt cold, distant, lost and hurt

I wish we can go back to the happier days

We used adore; look out for one another

Without stepping in to each others toes

It’s not important why we became friends

It’s the bond, trust and love that counts

Friends, always be there for one another.

I don’t know if this true or not any more

Million little things that I want to share

I don’t think it holds a value any longer

It’s true; we make new friends all our life

But only few becomes so close to heart

As I cling to the memories that are left

Life goes on; nothing remain the same

We go our separate ways; looking for new

Goals to pursue, new dreams to conquer

I look a round with a sigh; for ‘A Friend’

Room full of people; endless chatters

I see many faces, icy stares & empty smiles

I searched for that spark, warmth & affection

I paused for a moment and realized…

They are not you!! They can never be you!!

Beauty..

To my sister;The Buddhist Monk

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 21:27:00 +0000

Feeling of hopelessness and sadness ran through my veins

Guilt and regret hit me like a thunder storm in a rainy night

I was just powerless to change the decision you have made

Million little pieces of memories flashed in front of my eyes

Countless sacrifices mother had done for you; all those years

To be the career women; she had dreamed & envision for you

All those dreams came down like a house of cards

I could only close my eyes and searched for answers

Where did we go wrong; for you to leave in despair?

Giving up the things you loved and wanted so much

To become a Buddhist monk, isolated in to wilderness

Wearing a pale yellow robe, you meditate in dead silence

No attraction or repulsion from the world out side to disturb

I hope you'll find the inner peace that you desperately seek

Sheer courage and wisdom to follow the path of enlightment

It’s true; we have chosen very different paths of fulfillment

We may never be the same sisters who hold hands and giggles

But you will always be the one; once I dearly loved and missed

Goodbye my little sister, I am setting you free for the noble cause

May you be the one to heal & guide the many more helpless people

Needy souls to the light at the end of the long and painful tunnel.

Too Often we judge people...

Father & Son story

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 20:10:00 +0000

One old man was sitting with his 25 years old son in the train.

Train is about to leave the station.

All passengers are settling down their seat.

As train started young man was filled with lot of joy and curiosity.

He was sitting on the window side.
He went out one hand and feeling the passing air. He shouted, "Papa see all trees are going behind".

Old man smile and admired son feelings.

Beside the young man one couple was sitting and listing all the conversion between father and son.

They were little awkward with the attitude of 25

years old man behaving like a small child.

Suddenly young man again shouted, "Papa see the pond

and animals. Clouds are moving with train".

Couple was watching the young man in embarrassingly.

Now its start raining and some of water drops touches the young man's hand.

He filled with joy and he closed the eyes.

He shouted again," Papa it's raining, water is touching me, see papa".

Couple couldn't help themselves and ask the old man.

"Why don't you visit the Doctor and get treatment for your son."

Old man said,

" Yes, We are coming from the hospital as Today

only my son got his eye sight for first time in his life".

Moral: "Don't draw conclusions until you know all the facts".

Simply Life

When the April spring showers‘re gone

Mist fades away with the morning sun

I see the dew drops on the grass tips

Rays of sunlight beaming from the window

It’s these simple moments that we enjoy

Bring the beauty and serenity to our lives

When everything is meant to be broken

We look for our good friends to stand by

Pray for the miracles to appear in the sky

Some get heart broken, some get lucky

Everyone is left with a story to pass along

Time is our canvas; it’s entirely up to you

How you paint your life’s masterpiece

All that matters is not the end, memories

That you captured in a flash of moment

Your strife’s, struggles, triumphs and joy

When I gaze at the dark cloudless sky

I see one silver star under the moonlight

There’s enough hope, love for every one

But we choose to sit in our dark corner

Wait for the world to solve our problems

All along, Power is within us to find solutions

when you discover the peace within you

you’ll realize what a rare and wonderful

place this world to be born and witness life

God’s greatest gift to us is this one chance

live the life to the fullest with no regrets.

My childhood

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Mon, 06 Jun 2011 20:50:00 +0000

My childhood was full of innocence

Time in My world seemed endless

All I cared was to run around circles

Singing & Dancing with my buddies

Sat on the tree house & eating popsicles

Watched the parrots flew over the fields

Everything was bigger and so colorful

Every one was nicer and my best friends

School days were filled with fun & mischief

I did not care for home work or class work

I was always fooling around in the hood

Lots of happy holidays in granny’s house

Laughter, love was never short in her care

Smile was just enough to get things done

It was a hero bike I got for my 10th b’day

I paraded that in town as if I won the lottery

World seemed to be a fair and wonderful place

Love was pure and tenderness prevailed

No obligations or expectations to lived up to

All the good times I shared with my family

I know, my childhood was long gone

But child in me never ever left home

Lost Purpose

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Tue, 31 May 2011 22:17:00 +0000

We live in this most advanced ,complex world

Tall glass buildings,grand fly overs & fancy cars

Yet, we fail to notice the hungry homeless

Begging for our attention to get by each day

IPods, iPads, iphones in every street corner

We are busy browsing our smart gadgets

Live tweets, facebook updates to the world

Yet, we don’t stop and say hello to our neighbor

We Spend hours surfing and chatting online

Catching up with long lost high school friends

Yet, we don’t ask our spouse how her/his day is

Watching reality shows, singing competitions

And dancing stars are our new pass times

Yet, we don’t see the wars in our own back yards

To take care the jobless, helpless & the addicted

We champion the freedom to speak, demonstrate

As a human right, yet we accept the dictators

Around the world as it is their norm, culture

We live in a society every wants to be famous

Yet, no one wants to work hard to achieve it

We live in a place where we make dishwashing liquid

Using environmentally friendly, organic real lemons

Yet, lemonade for kids with artificial flavors & sugars

We shed millions on supplements and diet programs

Yet, fail to include fresh fruits and veggies to our diet

Isn’t that long a go we cut own grass, walked the dogs

Grew our vegetable garden, milked our own cows

Attended church every Sunday and prayed for world peace?

We live in a such a world that we embrace new technology

To divide us over land, race, skin color,politics and religions

We have forgotten the ultimate truth of existence

All things must die, regardless of their purpose

Life is a chance..

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Fri, 27 May 2011 15:21:00 +0000

Life is a chance, take it now or never

Life is a challenge, face it with courage

Life is gift, unwrap it and enjoy what is inside

Life is a tragedy; give it time , sorrows will heal

Life is pain, one must suffer to undersatnd it

Life is lonely, have faith, you will find your soul mate

Life is full of frustration, let it go, answers will come

Life is a mystery, pay attention, you will miss out

Life is love, feel it and spread it around

Life is a puzzle, can snap you wide awake

Life is struggle, hope is there to life your spirit

Life is full of unexpected; it can grab you any time

Life is depressing, can wake you from your sleep

Life is tears,need to cry out loud to let go of the pain

Life is trust, easy to loose harder to earn

Life is just a tease, don’t take it too seriously.

Life is awesome, see it, feel it embrace it

Life is precious; don’t let anyone take it from you

Life is beautiful, cheer up; it’s yours to play with

Life is fun, feel the music, dance to the beat

Life is whatever you think of it. And everything you think of it

Life is what you make of it and what you say of it.

Life is all about you and how you treat it

You like it, you hate it. Well, it’s all up to you

Life is you so be careful how you describe it

A friend is ...

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Mon, 23 May 2011 22:36:00 +0000

A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.” ---Orson Welles ---

Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.---Tennessee Williams --

Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend.----Albert Camus---

Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one-- C.S. Lewis---

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation that you ever had

You are the same today that you are going to be in five years from now except for two things: the people with whom you associate and the books you read.----Charles Jones---

One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss, but in the number of things they need no longer mention.--Clifton Fadiman---

Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.---Gloria Naylor---

Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.----Elie Wiese---

You learn to like someone when you find out what makes them laugh, but you can never truly love someone until you find out what makes them cry

Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget

A hug is worth a thousand words. A friend is worth more.

Best friends are there for you even if you refuse to talk to them. Because they know, deep down, the silence is killing you

Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things.

Things change and friends leave and life doesn't stop for anybody.

Friendship must never be buried under the weight of misunderstanding

Friendship is like a glass ornament; once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way.

In Life...

noreply@blogger.com (Dush) — Sun, 22 May 2011 19:23:00 +0000

In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do.
