Book of my Thoughts

Today i observed three very different faces of life, I passed by a man and his son, a toddler was held safely in his father's arms. His face was filled with pure joy and wonder, as he looked beyond the roads witnessing amazing things in his brand new world. It is the beginning of a beginning, and a smile turned up on my face with the power and sweetness of this simple thought.

one of my batch mate was sitting on a rock and was gazing into the distance. He looked sad and forlorn, as the breeze blew by and made the leaves flutter on the tree next to him, in this lonely scene. I was reminded of other days in the past when sadness and hopelessness were my only companions. I said a silent prayer for him, and profound thanks, to God, for me.


An old woman leaned on a fence post, looking into some other time. She doesn't seem either happy or sad, just gazed into the past, or maybe the future. I wonder what her ageing, but still lovely eyes have seen, in the time that she has spent in this world. Where has she been? What amazing things has she witnessed? A lifetime lays hidden behind her eyes. A feeling of timeless peace flew through me and all fear of what the future might bring drained away. I thanked her with my thoughts, and moved on.

Today i have learnt that there is something positive in any human being or things surrounding you, you just need eyes to see that
There are no moments when nothing is happening, so live and cherish each and every moment of your life

I used to think life was all about being happy,
I used to think life was all about a smile.
But that day I knew that it was not true
and you realize this only when you are blue

In life came a point when I wanted to cry
And then came a point when I wanted to die.
But death was not my alley;
and life felt like an empty valley.

Yet there was light
Yet there was hope,
which taught me how to cope.
With time the wounds did heal
And soon the pain, I didn’t feel
I believe a new dawn will always rise
and happiness surely comes in disguise
