Wistful

While walking towards the train ticket counter,
she saw a couple hugging,
a smile grew up on her lips
and tears welled up in her eyes. 😄

but they have forgotten that
Allah is above them” 😄

Open Book

So, during the transit today, I heard aĀ song blasting out of the earphones of a girl(withĀ a thoughtful smile) standing at a stretchĀ away.Ā With a feeling that I have heard the song before, I quickly searched and found that the song is named “Open Book” and is from an album called TV Dinners of Mikey McCleary. I first heard this songĀ during a TV add-break. I remember the song was used in a Mobile Network advertisement which impartĀ ‘Moments of life are made for sharing’.

The add shows how life changes for a girl after the breakup.Ā The video is short, just 00:46 seconds long. I hope you’ll like it. ā¤

The lyric are as,

I guess my life’s an open book
Anyone can take a look
No secrets here, to hide
This is just me

Holidays that come and go
Feelings change, people grow
And all I know is
I like being free

Da, Da, Da
I’ll be fine
This is me now
But I could change
Any time.

Blind Love

How often we have heard this phrase, “Love is blind”?

In a group ofĀ friends, we had a lot of jokes on this expression. Since many of the lads have never been in a relation, so when they see a decent guy with a girl who is beautiful, they say “Love is blind”. šŸ˜€

For me,
Love is blind, whenĀ we don’tĀ care how a person looks or how annoying they are, all we do is Love them unconditionally. šŸ™‚

Here is a small story I came across,
Few days back in aĀ cold foggy morning, I saw two people sitting next to each other outside the center court of theĀ coffee halt. They look just like some other girl and a boy on this planet. But there was one uncommon thing in those two people sitting together. They were constantly facing towards the bushes, with one hand together. šŸ™‚ They never faced each other.

The air floating around had some good content of water molecules which turned everyone’s breathe to fog. And just like a little kid, I was enjoying my winter smoking that way. šŸ˜› The place was quietĀ &Ā I was lookingĀ in the same direction where those two people were looking at and waiting for my cup of coffee to come, all of a sudden I heard, “I Love You” from the boy. Within seconds I heard, “I too” from the girl. ā¤ That brought a smile to me. šŸ™‚

Just then my coffee arrived and I was still smiling. Serving the coffee the server asked me, “What’s special sir?”. I replied, “Good to hear the word Love in this cold morning”. He saw me looking into that direction and replied, “They cannot see each other, they are blind. Sir” and he walked back to court.

I still had aĀ smile but with a thought onĀ what love really is! It is not looks, it is a feeling which you never had before. It is a feeling for one another.

On that very day, I realized the true meaning of “Love is blind”. šŸ™‚

A Gathering

Saturday, 19:07

A scarlet colored sun is about to set and here I amĀ in aĀ park close byĀ the swimming pool center. My friendĀ called me and told that fewĀ of his friends are here today andĀ he wants a gathering.Ā My friend and the guys I was told about were already seated at the place and were enjoying themselves, I also joined them. šŸ™‚

After few talks and rewind of memories, a guy came up with some questions. šŸ˜‰ I heard from my friend that this guyĀ is a good observant. The questions wereĀ about sharing your thoughts. It sounded extremely great activity.

And he started, šŸ˜‰

First question came up for a guy who’s exceptionallyĀ funny. šŸ˜€ He makes everyone laugh. He was asked, ‘What is the oneĀ thing you’re trying extremely hard to accept?’ šŸ˜‰ He looked at the observantĀ and said, ‘at the moment.. you!!’ šŸ˜€ Everyone chuckle and then he answered ‘Hard to accept that life is too short not to have the perfect coffee and haircut you want.’ šŸ˜€

The next question to a other person, ‘If you want to write a note for yourself, what it would be?’ Uncommonly he replied, ‘at 17 or 21, nobody is worth stressing over. Leave people behind, move on. It is time to find yourself, the world is yours and.. life goes on.’ This was marvelous thought to make a note of. šŸ™‚

It was my turn now. šŸ˜› I was asked, ‘A type of mistake which you would never want to do?’ I took a couple of seconds and said, ‘I could never cheat on anyone. It’s a wrong doing I couldn’t live with. Knowing that you destroy someone’s trust is bad, but destroying someone’s perspective on love is far too worse.’ šŸ™‚

Another question was thrown to the funny guy, ‘If you want to gift a book to your friend sitting next to you. What will be the book named?’ He laughed at the question first. šŸ˜€ He knows the person next to him very well. He shortly replied, ‘:D How to start a conversation to make friends. Very much he is in need of this.’ šŸ˜€

The last question was asked to my friend who was just listening to everyone’s thoughts.
The question to him was, ‘Tell one of the worst part of not being friends with someone anymore?’.
All of a sudden the smile was lost. 😐 I was aware of the condition heĀ wasĀ in the recent past. He didn’t looked at anyone and it appeared that he was dragged back in memories.Ā He answered, ‘One of the worst part is you cannot talk to them. You cannot tell them all the little things you used to share with them. You cannot tell them as they are no longer part of your life. It is sad because you used to tell them everything but now you can’t and it is weird.’ 😦

To ease out the serious faces around, he brought back the smile on his face and pretended that everything is all right. The other guys also got relieved after seeing the smile back on hisĀ face. How easily he managed to convince his mates who were unaware of his state.Ā It is explainable thatĀ people smile to hide pain, sometimes people laugh to hide the tears.

A smile can hide so much pain. 😐

Age is just a number.. isn’t it?

Age, a number, a division or a calculated digits ofĀ how old are you in years, or months, or weeks, or days, or minutes, or even seconds. As per me I think age is just a Label which is attached to every human being.

What I am finding out is that, while age may be just be a number, it is also a label. It labels me as part of a group.

I’m a child. I’m a teenager. I’m an adolescent. I’m a young adult. I’m middle aged. I’m a senior citizen.

My age categorizes and classifies me as something. But is that really what I am? Is that all I am?

Okay, so based upon my age, I actually am a ā€œYoung Adult.ā€ But what does that tell you about who I am? What I believe? How I’m supposed to behave?

Sometime you express your views in comments and your comment is so deep that the other person guesses that you must be experienced and old guy. And at times your comment is so funny that people think of you as a teenager with bared thoughts. But what you have expressed is a sudden reaction of what you feel for it, which you have put into words.

Its rightly said that some people are oldĀ at 18 and some are still young at 90.

Go and try to do what you really like, as age is nothing but just a number.. šŸ™‚
