Happiness

The sun was returning to its abode after a day's work. The waters seemed placid. The sand across the shore was glowing and glittering making the beach look like a field covered with gems. The wind played its leitmotif silently and plucked her eardrums softly.She tried to unravel what the wind whispered to her. The cold waters were moistening her slender feet, splashing water droplets on her delicate face.
She was relishing the joy of looking at her little boy play with the waters and the sand. Suddenly she had discovered the purpose of her life.She felt a great pleasure and a great sense of responsibility racing through her veins at the same time. She was again lost in her own thoughts when her reverie was broken by something that her son asked, "Maa, what is happiness?" Firstly she was amazed by her son's incredibility and then was shocked that she had never given it a thought. She emphasized her gray cells to get an apt reply of her son's question. She said, "That is what you feel when you get a chocolate."
The boy said," Maa, i feel like having one more." She smiled at her blatant defeat. She said,"It is what makes you smile."
The boy asked,"Is it a cartoon?"
She again tried hard to satisfy her son's quest for the answer by saying," It is what you feel after we go out for dinner." The boy replied innocently," I feel tired Maa."
It was getting tougher. Then she said,"It is what you feel when you hug me tightly."
The boy smiled and came running into his mother's arms  and then he said, "Maa I feel very happy."
She could instantaneously feel his happiness and could not distinguish it from hers.
And now there was an eternal smile on her face that shone and sparkled in the dusk.She was the most beutiful woman on the earth with that priceless beauty.
She felt something pulsing through her body and rejuvenating her soul and she softly echoed," This is what is happiness."

The grey autumn is galvanising because, the blossoming spring is yet to entrance.....

The weary journey is what makes the destination dainty and jocund......

The enigma of the dark is enthralling because, the tranquil morning is sure to dawn......


The ignominy of failure is what makes the success expedition facile and grand......


The pain of parting is pleasurable because, it makes the reunion blithe and bouyant.....

The beauty of hope is what makes the odyssey of life spiteful and serene......

My Wish For You

May the sky bow to you, when you  wish to pluck a star....

May your life be a haven for ecstasy and felicity,which makes it impossible for sorrows to thrive....

May all your wishes come true,even before you realize you ever made them......

FRIENDS

Those may be the ones who sometimes hurt us because they have the right to,

But they are the ones who always comfort us because they love to.

Some people are ressponsible for making our lives blissful,

and adding vibrant colours to make our lives beautiful.

They are the drugs that cure us of our worries

And keep loving us inspite of our endless follies.

They are the ones who percieve our concealed qualities,

And help us in making our dreams a reality.

They are the ones without whom our frames would be black and white,

And they are like the bright day which comes after the dark night.

These are the marvels of life called 'FRIENDS'

SUNSHINE

She was sitting there all alone, shunning the storm of thoughts that were tormenting her. She was finding it hard to fight the tornedo of lonliness which had suddenly struck her...

She looked at the sky hoping to get its company; but she realized that it was already preoccupied with the wind. She felt dejected.She watched expectantly at the lustrous green grass, but alas the grass was already engrossed with the playful dew droplets. She felt badly ignored.She glanced at the flowers which she had endearingly planted with her own hands, sure to get a response, but the flowers were lost in the music hummed by the bees. She felt defeated. And as her last effort she authoritatively yelled at Lucy her pet dog, but she realized that Lucy was too engrossed in her meals and had not bothered to respond....

This was her last battle and it was a lost one.

She had completely given up her hopes. Even tears seemed to have rejected her their company.She was lost. She was blank. She was lifeless. She felt as if the whole world had forgotten her.........

The wind became still. The ambiance suddenly felt gloomy and dark!! And then came down the tiny droplets of rain.She was oblivious to the rain. Slowly the downpour turned fierce.She was not in her senses until a drop loudly struck her breaking the silence.The lightining had blinded her and when she opened her eyes she found her gaze fixed onto a puddle.Her eyes peeped into it, and then came an image before them. What image was it??? She tried to concentrate. She felt it to be familiar. Dumbfounded was she when she realized that it was hers! The entity which she had completely forgotten in the battle with the world. She felt to have betrayed it. She felt guilty. At least she started feeling again...

And that was when she made a promise to herself "I would always take care of myself." She realized that 'I' is the one will always be with 'me', no matter who stays and who does not.

The rain had calmed down.The clouds parted and had let the sun rays penetrate them.

The sun shone brightly, illuminating the sky gloriously again...
