And it's rains again....

Whenever I hear the pitter patter of the rain drops on my window why do I have to think of you. But I do, and I re-live the walk we had in that heavy rains, with me grasping for your hand on every step. I was so afraid of taking the steps and you just walked ahead so sure of yourself and the way. It was so hard for me to concentrate on the steps I was taking and stop staring at you. But it was difficult, very difficult. And I fell , and again I had to stop myself staring at you while you laughed.
You walked holding my handing all the way back to my place. I was on a high. Do you know how many times I have re-lived those moments in my mind, loving your closeness and your warmth in that cold cold night. I think I fell in love with you again that night.

Dance as no one is watching...

"Dance like no one is watching, 

 love like you'll never be hurt,

 sing like no one is listening,

 and live like it's heaven on earth."

- William Purkey

All the time in our life we keep wishing, thinking and longing for things that 

we do not have. We look forward for a time and when the time comes we 

look forward for something else. We keep on thinking that the life will would 

be better and happier if we have a better job, more money, a bigger car, a 

nice house and the list is endless. But in all this wishing, thinking and 

wanting we loose what we will never again get, the present. And we might 

wish to re-live what we had before and we cannot, but when we did have 

it, did we really enjoy it ? Did we live that moment, that time up ? 

After the present is gone no one can get it back. No one what is going to 

happen in the next second also, so why not live and make the best of the 

present one ?

I am a big cribber, whenever I crib to my mom, she always tells me "Don't 

say like that. You don't know what moment God would grant you what you 

are wishing for. Instead of thinking about what you don't have, think about 

what you have and enjoy it. There is no happiness anywhere, we have to 

create it form within ourself."

I accept I don't listen and follow what she says very often myself, but I try

to whenever I can. And when we feel happy about the smallest of things 

also, life seems easier to live and all problems seem small.

Ending with a random quote I read somewhere " Happiness is a journey,
not a destination ", let it be your thought for the day.
