Surrender to the creator!

The last one and half years have been tough on all of us. The pandemic has cost us dearly - financially, physically, emotionally. It has given us scars that will remain for life. Lessons that will change us forever - for good or worse....

My one biggest learning from the pandemic is: surrender to the creator....mankind is nothing infront of nature. We can't survive a second without help from nature. Why are we trying to be God? When we are struggling to be even human?

I'm getting tired of human intelligence. The mindless innovations and distractions like the spoilt billionaires who seem hell bent to pollute the space now that earth is almost totally polluted. 

Why are we creating more toys? Smarter faster sleeker that makes us even more dependent on them?

We need to step back a few decades. Go back to the times when we worked hard on the fields and factories. Spent time socializing with each other. Built communities and laughed together. This virtual world is so suffocating! Aren't we all fed up? We need to go to nature. Spend time watching the sunrise and sunset, watch birds and animals in their natural ecosystem. I'm tired of these skyscrapers. All they scrape is our hard earned money and make us modern slaves to EMIs. 

I envy the life style of the hippies and the nomads. They live like our true ancestors - the hunters and gatherers who moved from place to place in search of food and fun, owning nothing and trusting that mother earth will provide.

We must live like that once again. Put our trust in God! Trust miracles to happen. To let nature take its own course. Love and respect earth. Live in harmony with other million species. 

May be then mother earth will forgive our foolishness and bless us with happy lives again.

Nature calling!

There is a tiny little compass within us, our conscience, the keeps giving us signals. There are times when it keeps warning us of the dangers of the city life we are living. It gives us hint of being at home when we are in the middle of nature. We are all like tiny parts of the nature we are so foolishly moving away from. And that's why we feel so much at home when we go to these places. We are parts of them - the air, the water, the soil, the fire that makes us us. Not the iphones and fancy toys we are so attached to these days. Let's make it a point to live closer to nature. To breathe pure air. To drink water unadulterated by modernism. To think thoughts that are pure and in tandem with the cosmos. There is a monk within us. Why do we hide him? Why do we not listen to him? We must. Before it's too late!

2020: adios amigo!

The year 2020 was cruel to most of us, but it taught us many positive lessons. It made us appreciate and be grateful for all that we have, and realise what we really need in life to be happy. It was a lesson needed for the world to reboot and rethink of its priorities. It reminded us that we have been making the mistake of using people and loving things when it needs to be the other way round. It made us realise the importance of the people in our lives - even if they are the people who do mundane jobs in our households and whom we tend to take for granted. It also made us realise that our wealth can't protect us from the virus or a calamity, but our fellow humans can; the great work done by the medical fraternity, the workers who helped us stay alive during the lockdown, was truly commendable. No words can really describe how grateful the rest of us are for these courageous selfless servants of humanity. I hope we have learnt the lessons and learnt them well as a race, as life ten...

Hey gorgeous

I find you beautiful not because you are good looking I find you beautiful because your eyes share the same pain I see in my own I find you gorgeous because you wear the look of a fellow traveller longing for the train to arrive in the station soon I find you irresistable because I see the fountains of joy that soothes my heart in your eyes as you look at me I find you stunning because you are imperfect and scarred just like me Let's share this life Whatever little is left of it Let's laugh and cry together Let's celebrate the scars and toast the time together as finally we have the chance to be with each other Let's not give up now Let's not wait another lifetime to quench the thirst our souls feel for each other Comeon let's approach the future together Like a pack of wolves chasing a prey And let's feast on moments we conquer  for ourselves...
