Solace

A baby's smile...Waves touching sand...Twighlight skies...
Dewdrops on a petal...Tranquil waters...A friend's Hello...
Birds chirping...A warm bed...A Mother's kiss...
Butterfly dances...Starry nights...A child's giggle...
Fireplace chats...A lover's hug...Tender Lips...
Dancing leaves...Rhythm of a tune...Summer rains...
A beautiful story...A familair voice...Cool breeze...
Morning fragrance...Colorful rainbow...A cat's purr...
Old friends...New smiles...Comfy shoes...
Distant surfers...Ocean spray...Guitar sounds...
Scented candles...Rose petals...Warm cuppa...
Family love...Good hearts...Chocolate cookies...
Quiet time...Peaceful sleep...Yellow daisies...
A past lover...Secret moments...An old photo...
Sweet dreams...Teddy Bear hugs...Flying kisses....

True solace lies in simple things in life...many don't realise it and they seek for it forever.

Runaway Groom

He smiles as she walks down the aisle...
He waits for her so impatiently...
And when she arrives he stares at her....
With so much love and so much pride...
He promises to watch her till death do them part...
He then kisses her and makes her his wife...
He holds her hand and takes her home...
Makes love to her and babies they raise...
As time passes the 'groom' disappears...
A boring sports-lover takes his place...
All he does is watch TV for sure...
And when the night comes he snores oh dear!
When chores are heavy and babies cry...
He just watches soccer to smile...
When garbage needs to be placed out...
He just feels like its a crime....
When she cries and feels alone...
He goes, 'honey is it that time of the month?'
When they go out, his eyes start to wonder
When he's home, his eyes are oh so closed...
His clothes are all over the floor
And if dinner is late he's so pissed off...
When she whispers 'do you love me' in his ear
He goes 'Do you want something my dear?'
So where's the groom...she starts to pray
Did he after the wedding, just run away?

LOL!
For my married friends....

Smitten kittens!

Ever been bitten by the big fat Love Bug? Once you're bitten you're smitten and you become a love kitten. Actually this big fat bug resides in your body and it slumbers till it is awaken by an external kitten that you will meet some day in your life. The immediate symptoms from it's bite are mostly respiratory related - short of breath proceeds. Ah, I lost my breath! What happend - how can this bug take away my Oxygen?? You may experience some skin reactions too, such as extreme blushing or going pale and passing out. Your heart raises and you lose your composure. You start to sweat and your blood pounds like thunder. You can hardly speak because you freeze. You become silly and you feel like an idiot but you can't help it. The bug's taken over your body and there's no way you can control it now - it controls you! So do as it asks you to, for you are under it's spell now - you have now got a permanent/temporary 'Love' seizure. No doctor would be able to help you so don't waste you time and money on Lovelogists - btw there're no such doctors :)

However, this bug will not bother you if you don't ever meet that triggering kitten. Perhaps you already got exposed to that kitten which has become another bug in your life or perhaps which has helped you to become less of a bug to others :) However, the besotted kittens' life changes forever then onwards...they become Romeos, Juliets, Shah Jahans, Mumtazs, Hamlets and Ophelias...what not! Along with their new found kitten, these smitten kittens fly away to new horizons, entertaining each other with that bizzare seizure called 'Love' that has now been inflicted upon them by this awaken bug. They would now do anything this bug commands them to do. These smitten kittens would even die for their external 'bugs'! The bite leaves that powerful an effect on you.

As time goes, some kittens are able to 'maintain' their Love seizures forever and they start living and growing old together which is the way it should be. And life goes on for them. But some find their seizures stop abruptly. It seems that the bite was real but the effect wasn't permanent. When this happens, the once smitten kittens go their separates ways...and the bug goes back to sleep. It may meet that trigger again some day or it may not...but life goes on for these kittens too...

Watch that bite!

Dream a little dream...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Take a moment...look back at your life...
Did you get to follow your dreams...
Did you reach the destination...
At whichever point you may be now...
You once had the sweetest dreams...
Health maybe,Love,Family or Friends...
Whatever that you may have seeked so far...
Did you get to realise it all...
And when the day is done my dear...
And the night has come to greet...
Do you smile and count the stars...
Or do you wonder what went wrong...
No matter where you are right now...
No matter how small your dream may be...
Remember that in life on Earth...
You don't receive everything you please...
Sometimes dreams just remain as dreams...
As those pastel distant memories...
Do not weep that you did not reach them...
Smile through tears that you atleast felt them...
For what matters the most my friend...
Is if you really dreamed those dreams.

Mirror Mirror on the wall...

Who's the fairest of them all?

It is the mirror that perfects us to a certain extent...it is the mirror that we last look at before we go out the door...it is the mirror we seek to convince us that we look the way we want to be seen. But imagine living in a mirror-less world? Imagine we never had mirrors on Earth! What would it be to live in a world where you wouldn't know how you looked like?? That my child would be a blind man's world...

Feel his pain, feel his anxiety, feel his loss...feel his tears...consider yourselves blessed folks.

Ashes to Ashes...Dust to Dust...

Where did we come from...where do we go? This body oh this body...awaken from dust, only to slumber back into dust. Did you ever think about it? Isn't it ludicrous that we are born into families, taken care of tenderly, made to work hard, build eternal relationships, grow old, face sickness and all of this just to die some day? To be ashes, to be dust...to go back to where we started as? Hold on, is this a joke! No it's not - who lives forever? No one. Good or bad, rich or poor, pretty or ugly, strong or weak, black or white, one thing is guaranteed in life...death. Nothing else in life is as certain as death. As cold as it sounds, it is the frozen truth! And we will never be here again...not the same you...maybe in a different attire but not this 'you' again. Some folks leave early, some leave later...nobody knows why. We all possess the same return ticket, but with diverse durations. Then why, why all the fuss, why the bonds, why the pressure, why the tears, why the whimper, why the trials? After all, if we get only one life, why the momentary content and why the incessant anguish then? I wish I knew the answer but I am afraid I don't. Life is an ephemeral circus. For what do you get at the end of the show - NOTHING. You just have to turn out the lights, the music off, disrobe your colorful costumes and brace yourself while you step out of the ring, leaving behind your kith and kin, with whom you once performed. And when you depart, you cannot take anything with you...for nothing here belongs to you...nothing at all...not your mother, not your father, not your favourite CDs, not your lover, not your money, not your car, not your pride, not even your body. You just turn into ashes...to dust...poof!! You're gone. For dust you are, And to dust you shall return...

Low 'high' fence

Peace...a warped word...leader's protective camouflage...

Friendship...if golden...endures the storm...
Earth...God's endowment...man fails to protect...
Smiles...blissful wrinkles...some don't want to gain...
Mothers...God made...validate His Omnipresence...
I...word of pompous tunes...birth of annihilation...
Happiness...a simple recipe...if less ingredients...
Fools...rush in...some dawdle...
Attraction...effortless...upholding it strenous...
Winning...virtually vital...but participation beats it...
Arms...people built...but weapon of Love remains idle...
Death...a heartbeat away...yet we choose to mock each other...
Light...it's the aura that cleanses...not it's sight...
Child...you have one inside...happy and innocent in every way...
Scent...vanishes with the body...but reminiscence lingers...
Laughter...maybe the best medicine...but inclination helps to possess it...
Unique...we all are...never will we be here again...
Fruits...sour or sweet...you can choose to eat....
Smoke...if without a fire...does not purify...
Heart...though made of flesh...can shine like Gold...
Life...can break you...at wuthering heights...
Leaves...are green...but yellow in Autumn...
Water...pushed through pipes...pure if it flows in it's own nature...
Colours...seen by candlelight...not the same in daylight...
Satisfaction...breathes somewhere close...some lose it while trying to find it...
Brother...by blood you may say...it's really beyond just genetics...
Heaven..a place on Earth...many find the ticket expenisve...
Family...expects your love...don't consider it as just a label...
Sex...overrated...given attention Love can be the same...
Stupidity...inheritted by all...some are clever not to show it...
Cigarettes...licenced puffs...harmless to yor health it reads...
Life...a gamble...sends you home when you finish betting...
Fish...swim in high tides...soon to reach the tranquil waters...
Daffodils...oh so yellow...can you make them purple never...
Civil...the war they call...is that because peace is uncivil...
Blood...thicker than water...but all humans are made of blood...
Marriage...something to encounter...good to be faithful to many things...
Terrorism...an open stage show...from both sides...
Gift...is what you have...not what you get....
Carelessness...a human trait...careless in caring inhumane...
Day...sun rises again...moon finished it's shift work...
Faith...may rejoice...until uncertainity pays a visit...
Dance...limbs you need...not if the soul learns to do it...
Pleasure...is the sweet twin sister...of that cruel pain...
Fate...present stranger...greet her when you see her...
Fence..it may seem high...when actually it is lower han high...

Sorry I didn't say Sorry...

Windows closed...silent tears...
Pictures on the wall...solitary pain..
Memories haunt...words unspoken...
Hearts broken...time frozen...
Didn't say...what I had to say...
Take me away...to that darkest day...
Back in time...for a little while...
Forever we think...this life lingers...
A time too short...we never wonder...
I wont say it...just why should I...
I'm not wrong...I'm always right...
A cracked mirror...can't be mended...
But through it's face...we can still be pictured...
Glances passed...pride inside...
So I froze...only for a while...
A Winters night...and it all ended...
Emptiness lingers...forever darkness...
Where there was comfort...pain now dances...
Wrath and ego...kept me insane...
A simple word..had I spoken...
Destiny, could I have changed?

Have you seen Him?

I was walking along the street...in the rush hour of this morning, people hurrying to catch their trains to work. I was feeling quite stressed out as it is Monday morning and the weekend just bid good bye. A thousand things on my mind, what has happened, what will happen...too many clutters...too many woes...but I must work. So I was rushing and suddenly I saw a Chinese mother and a baby seated on a platform bench...the baby must have been about 6months old...big beautiful baby with large dreamy eyes...he was drinking milk from a bottle...the mother was holding it to him...he was happy in his own little world...no cares...no stresses...he only wanted to drink his milk. As I passed him, my eyes glanced at him and a flash of true pleasure ran through my heart...that feeling is simply inexpressible...I was overwhelemd by this baby's face, this baby whom I didnt even know...his smile, his joy, his tears, his hunger, his carelessness, his innocent eyes had me spell bound. For a moment, I forgot all the worries, all the questions, all the pain...I think I saw God.

Moments...

Moments of real hope...
Moments of daring fun...
Moments of endless joy...
Moments of complete trust...
Moments of inexpressible love...
Moments of sheer pleasure...
Moments of undoubtful confidence...
Once they were...
Yes, once they were...
Moments of total disbelief...
Moments of heartfelt pain...
Moments of pure tears...
Moments of broken trust...
Moments of cruel hopelessness
Moments of undoubtful doubt...
Now they are...
Yes, now they are...

awww you can have it sweety...

And something original from me...Live today, worry about tomrrow when it arrives...will it?

The Good, the Bad and the Cranium-Deprived....

WARNING:HAZARDOUS MATERIAL!

I love India Times...one of the popular Indian chat sites. This site has not only being a time killing hot spot for me but it has also introduced me to some interesting people around the globe. I always hum the tune of 'Welcome to the Jungle' as I log into IT, you will soon know why, not exactly what it meant to Axl Rose though!

IT for me is pure entertainment...it's also information sharing...and finding new friends and yes, it is also constructive interference! When the day gets hard and long, when time hangs around, when there's nothing more interesting to do, I call up IT :) The point of this blog is for me to give some real recognition to some of the greatest souls and some of the not-so-great souls I met on IT. So If you think that you may be one of Keshi's angels, you may enjoy this blog very much. But if you suspect that you may be listed as one of Keshi's embryonic specimens, you may read on to help yourself improve or you may stop right here before you get badly hurt. I have met some amazing people on IT...truly amazing! Let me start with the Good, as the Good always deserve the red-carpet treatment.

What can I say about Ash_b1? Just one thing...that is that he is truly a Gentleman. A serious music-lover and a poet that writes stuff that reaches your soul. He never hurts anybody, he treats girls respectfully and though it is just chat, he speaks the ultimate truth and ultimate wisdom. He puts on no airs, he takes no sides, he just sails along with the tide. Though I dont get to chat with him much, whenever we meet it's like we have known each other for 1000years! Ash and I share some deep feelings on certain issues in life. It's like he knows exactly what I want to say and he puts it into perfect sentences. He can read my mind! I dont have to say a word. Ash I salute you for your wisdom and the golden friendship you have offered me - you have truly made a lasting impression in my life. Now let me talk about 4u2nvau...cute young chap from Aussie - the best of innocence you could ever get! He's the Sweet Heart of the girls on IT. He can charm you with his sweet nature and his cute hood language - the words I inherited from NV as I so fondly address him are, DUN, LAFF, DINT, TEMME...LOLLLZ! I'm sure you get the picture now...he's just too good to be true! A loving and sensitive guy who always sticks by you no matter what and refuses to give me his phone number in case he gets in trouble - LOL! I luv u NV - your friendship has proved to me that sweet and decent guys really exist and that too a Desi one :) You are truly exceptional and if not for you I would not have lasted this long on IT :) Next comes Vance...hmmm...the handsome hunk for many girls on IT but he falls asleep alot :) A cool Brahmin chicken eater, he just knows what to say and when to say it. One thing I can say about Vancy as I so lovingly call him is that he is a true Gentleman too! Vance is someone all the girls seek and someone who isnt available all the time, either because he's dozing off or he's bashing up some other bloke on IT with utter filth! He would just put the spammer on and leave - thats our good old mate Vancy! Vance you are a darling...long live mah chweet Vancy - dun u work too hard now :) FootlooseSlinger muuahhhhz! He and Vance hates each other but I love them both :) Footsi has some very rare qualities. He is a silent observer, a passionate poet, a decent human being, a funny guy who hates fights...he knows Keshi fights alot - LOL! But he also understands that Im not just fighting...One thing I love about footsi is that he would answer your questions so perfectly without you having to ask the same question again or explain it further. He never makes stupid or ill-natured statements and he does not jump in unnecessarliy. He is a true winner in that sense and oh yes, he's not bad at flirting either (winks at footsi ;-) Snazzz, hmm he's next! The first thing I ask him when he comes on IT is if he's committed now! If you dont get what I'm saying, well Snazzzo is someone who doesnt like to commit to a relationship - LOL - don't kill me now Snazzo for letting that out! He LOVES chicks and he drinks up a bit too :) and half the time I don't know what Snazzz is saying - LOL! But he's a very good friend - an honest friend who would tell you anything to the face. His honesty can be a real sharp stab in the heart but he's taught me some tough lessons that way. I have told him off many times but he has always remained my friend. He's stood up for me many times and I appreciate that Snazzo. Thanks for that and I luv ya always. Oh I almost forgot Virus!! I mean how can I?? He was one of the first cuties I met on IT and he paved me the way to enhance my flirting skills :) He's the coolest and the sexiest guy in the block! He will tease you till you faint but he will give you a hug and a smooch, yes a smooch that will steal your heart away. Btw Viru is pretty fly for a Desi guy ;-) I luv u baba LOL! These are really my best men on IT. I know a few other good men like eternalbuddy, bud_light, talldarkman, sun_cityus, adorable and cynosure. They are awesome people who I know will always be my friends.

Among the girl friends, wow, I have met some awesome women on IT! Number one is Heidi - she is all the way from Germany and very much a lady - unlike me :) She is my inspiration and my motivation on IT. Everyday I log on IT just to say Hello to her and if I didnt see her for one day it's like something is missing. So you can imagine her aura on me :) She's a very intelligent girl. We talk about so many ineteresting things such as boys :), jokes, world affairs and always fight over who writes who's eulogy first - LOL! That's a top secret between us that only Heidzz would understand. She's extra careful when chatting, very sensitive, sensible and so sweet. She teams up with me to tease young chaps who goes ASL please...and we have a good laugh together. She is dearly missed by Keshi....hope she knows this because she aint coming on IT anymore. I love and miss you Heidzz...plz come bakkk! My other best girl is Feathered_Mask - she has so many nics I'm afraid I cant keep up with them :) When I first met her she used to be Pink_Gurl and the instant I met her I knew she's a hoot! She's awesome - a high level human dictionary:) who knows good music too - not just music but the best - Queen, Led Zepplin, Guns n Roses, Floyd etc She loves rock just like me and she oh well she's woka! LOL! She has this rare capability of connecting with almost anyone in a chat room...from any walk of life! That's something I cant do because there are alot of ass holes in chat rooms...but she gets along with all of them - I guess she's got that kind of patience or she just has the knack for it. She's extremely polite, sincere, very intelligent and the hard-to-find kind of girl...most of all she's a precious friend to me, thnx FM for being who you are, you are truly amazing! Natasha rocks - she's one amazing desi 'Russian' girl :) One day she's Natasha Kinski and the other day she's Tatiana Grigorieva! She is honest and so very caring with lots of muaaahs and hugggs to spare. Guys luv her cause she's hot :) She stood by me always and offered me her genuine friendship - I thank you for that Natt. My ever-loving DIL lol! Ria, Jelly_Eyes, Tanvi, Sebia and Bindassohni are a few other great girls I met on IT - I luv u guys heaps, please know that.

The cranium-deprived stays that way except Sangi and Munna. We actually talked and sorted it out. I'm sorry Sangita and Munna. Even though this is just chat, what I learnt is that it is very much like the real world...people are always waiting to laugh at someone else's expense. We decided to forget the past and move on :) But make sure your mate Vix gets a FIX...looks like he's still wearing it - LOL!

Thanks to all of you...you have made me think in many different ways and have added to the colorful nature of cyber friends.
That's it folks!
