On Desperation

Desperation is the key to most accomplishments in life.
Whatever man does, he does out of desperation - to overcome the utter hopelessness of a situation, or to eliminate the possibility of a worse tomorrow. Never have I seen man succeed without an element of desperation in his dreams. 

When you see him, you can feel it in the way he holds himself, the way it carries over to the most ordinary things in life. The thirst, the raw want shines through his eyes. It shows in the set of his jaw to the frown marring his features. He believes that whatever he does out of this crazy desperation will get him out of his personal hell. His energy flows into others. And at some point, it makes the world work in his favour.

I want to be that person. The desperate one. The one who wins.

I DREAM OF A WORLD...

I dream of a world,
Where I can stay idle ,
Resting in the arms of mother nature ,
Looking beyond the busy world,
Who refuse to open their eyes
And look at the beauty of nature.

I dream of a world,
Where everything I do,
Would be right and
There is no worry about
Them going wrong ‘coz there is nothing to go wrong!
Where I can enjoy to my heart’s content……

I dream of a world,
Where there is only happiness,
And no sadness,
No loss , only gain,
No thought , no pain…

I dream of a world,
Where I do not have to choose
A path for everything
Let there be no worry , no care,
Just a single thought,
‘everything will be alright’

I dream of a world,
Full of pleasant surprises,
Valleys full of flowers,
Allowing the sun to pour
The warmth on them
Where I can go on gazing and gazing….

I dream of a world,
Where time can be stopped ,
But I can still enjoy the clouds,
Rolling in the sky,
Lying down on a grassy slope,
No thoughts in my mind…..

I dream of a world,
Where I can sit on a rock,
And watch the waves,
Licking my toes , retreating,
And advancing again,
Just meant for gazing and gazing…..

I dream of a world,
Where there are no tensions,
No stress , no care.
A place where we could just
Forget everything and gaze
At the beauty of nature,
Resting in its very arms….

I dream of a world
Where we could just let go
Of everything ‘coz you have
A place where there is only gain,
A place you could forget everything,
And take pleasure without guilt…..

I dream of a world,
Which I pray must
Come true one day , where
You could just let go….
Forget everything
Keep on gazing and gazing …
Just keep on gazing and gazing ,
With no thoughts in the mind,
And gradually get sucked into nature’s eternity….

WATER........

Ever since my childhood, i Loved Water... it somehow inspires me.
the way it shapes itself into any vessel..... it shows me how to adjust into any surroundings!
I used to have an aquarium... i loved it. It was my favourite passtime to gaze at the eight goldfishes and one black molly.... but what was surprising was that, Now when i recall those memories, that have pressed themselves like photographs in my memory; i remember that i was not really looking at the fishes... yeah they were graceful and all...
like God had made them to be, but i was looking at the water....the way the fishes CUT the water,to make way for themselves... the way the Water never got HURT, the way it willingly moved aside...
it did not allow itself to be hurt by anything. It just flowed....kept on flowing...
NO i would not say in a careless or carefree way... it did take care ... but took care of itself, in a way that it was not obvious.



I went to this lake.. once a long time ago, with my aunt uncle and two sisters.
it is called "Rammappa Kaluva" or something like that..yeah below is a photograph of it...(taken through the camera of my cellphone..hence, not so clear)



in this lake.. my sister, being naughty as always.. tried to throw a pebble into the calm depths of the peaceful lake,of course it would cause ripples...
i was , dont ask me why.. , kind of disgruntled.
Why should the girl throw a pebble? why ??!!!
oh why on earth would she want to disturb a peaceful soul?! far actually, that was what had passed in my mind. but it would look really foolish to stop the girl from having her fun!
she kept on throwing the stones...somehow she ENJOYED wreaking havoc in the peace of the waters!!
well... she is a kid, having her share of fun! :D i would not stop her!





Well... but at that moment, i understood, that how many ever fishes are under the water,it never shows...a FAINT ripple is caused..a FAINT one when a fish comes up and decides to peek its nose (if it has one)



Water has inspired me to be what i am... or what i HOPE i AM
and i also hopes it keeps inspiring me too :)
