TIME-The Eternal Factor

TIME is seamlessly precious. It is said--- TIME once lost cannot be retrieved. How can TIME ever be lost? TIME has ever existed and will always be. It is also said that if, not used, in the right manner it is lost. I have my own thoughts on it.
TIME is immortal. Everything ends except the nano, micro, milliseconds in this universe. Each second gives birth to another timeless more seconds. It is so evolving. The only thing that ends are the things that are TIME bound—NOT TIME in itself.
Indeed, TIME is very precious. None can capture it or bind it in one’s hand. It flies away like a bird, it’s like the air. We are so much habituated in waiting for the right TIME to come, that in this wait we miss seeing that TIME always exists and also has practiced to make space for us to be utilized, even if it has to be in the simplest ways and means.
We all are so caught up with our lives, that we do not have TIME or do not want to have TIME to enjoy even a second in its true sense.
Remind yourself that TIME is eternal and is in abundance and will always be. Live the TIME, at least once.. For whatever you feel that makes you happy, that brings a smile on your face, which gives you that blissful feeling, a feeling that touches one’s heart and soul and that elevates the mind.
Even if it is just to watch the sun, or to see the clouds moving and making its own patterns OR to see the clear sky. Just to feel the kiss of the breeze OR the feel of the wind touch your face. To admire the beauty of the moon and the glittery stars. To watch faces in the crowd and let your eyes take your sight to its maximum reach.


For a moment to be with nature either to look for the birds chirping away to glory in the hidden branches. To hear the water flow, to watch the rain that blinds the clear view from the window pane. To hear the rustle of the leaves. It could be even the simplest beauty of the flowers & buds swaying to the music of the lovely breeze.


Even if it takes to listen to your favorite music, to hum a tune, to write whatever you feel like OR to be lost in his/her own thoughts. To notice the laughter of the kids in the vicinity. To hear a mother singing a lullaby to her baby OR to hear your child chatter away on her/his daily activities.


Let yourself free from your pre-occupied thoughts and just be yourself for that instance. See the difference that it makes for you and enjoy that moment. All it takes is just one moment to be what you actually are and to do what you always wanted to do all your life.


TIME is then always there at your disposal. Will always be with you. That would be TIME in its true meaning for NOW and FOREVER.

1996-A Summer Afternoon

It was a summer afternoon. I was going through my college photographs, wishing those days were back and time would just stop there. How Nostalgic...The mere thought of it would bring an instant smile on my face. I was lost in thought when I recollected one of those adventurous trips that we had on one such summer afternoon. We friends would love to explore different places during our graduation.Those were fun filled days..no stress, no tension (except exams and project completion not to deny). Those were the days when we just wanted to be in the open...with nature...Do what we feel is right and just not bothered about the rest of the world. As said by someone time doesn't wait for anyone and does not come back. We set off to a nearby place at first.This is in the southern state of India with its mystic beauty and full of valleys and greenery.A sight that would take any one's breath away...On the way back..we found a fishery.They would breed fish there.We thought of explo...

EXCLUSIVITY: Let's talk about It!

  This is going on in my head for sometime🙂and in fact for days! It started working more in my thoughts when I started reading the Book- "The Book of a Woman" by OSHO. I was trying to understand his thoughts and what he had to say in his book. He has not spoken about uniqueness in a manner I think of it but it gave me a perspective to work on my line of thinking. HERE IT IS! Relationships come with a mix of blending together, possessiveness and expectations. Relationships also wither because of the same reasons and more. When you have any kind of close relationship( Friend, boyfriend, girlfriend, wife, husband or a colleague whom you relate to, parents, siblings) exclusivity gets in. In the sense you want that space in his/her life and in their thoughts and heart like none occupy. I am not saying special treatment but one does not want to be with that person like "one among the rest" but do not to give that piece of themself to anyone else. Does not mean you don...

WOMAN-THY NAME.....

Strong as a rock, emotions running deep as the ocean, patience of a saint, sweet as nectar, innocence that of a child, Mysterious like the universe, thoughtful and wise like a preacher, at the same time furious like the fire, anger like the volcano but above all someone who stands against all odds...This is no one but a WOMAN. As I was passing by I heard someone ask. Do we really need a special Day to celebrate for Women? I t can be taken in 2 ways. One—Maybe because she is special always OR in a note so positive form—Like Why do we need a special day for her? Don’t we already have so many days to celebrate?? Well, my take is...we have valentine’s day for people to express love –rather people who love each other, we have mother’s day, father’s day, May day so on and so forth. But, they are categorized for either a section of people OR for certain relationships.  I feel, Woman's day is a day that acknowledges the female gender, as a whole, irrespective of age, nation...
