The Fight Within - Best friend and Biggest enemy

Who is your best friend ? Some of us would answer it in a jiffy. Some might take a little longer to decide. Sometimes it is more than one. I have always wondered who my best friend is?. I am constantly wondering about a lot of things Who is my best friend? Who is my biggest enemy? What is my favorite color? What is my favorite fruit? The list is endless. Every time people ask me a simple question? I feel lost and disturbed. Even the toughest questions does not scare me. But simplest ones can do the trick. I always have the feeling that something is technically wrong with me.  I always try to be a normal girl.  I just get cranky and crazy at times. And I think it is a part of a normal life. I am just curious. Sometimes too curious for my own good. I have too many questions and it seems natural to me. The question which are most disturbing . Who is my best friend? and Who is my biggest enemy? . Friends have always been a vital part of my life. They are like oxygen to m...

Cosmetics - A cosmo affair

A visit to Health and Glow actually made me think. My friends would disagree this. I cant stop thinking. Good or Bad, Useful or otherwise, I just think. Sometimes the places I go, The things I see influence my thought. Health & Glow my favorite outlet influenced my thought train. The best sales team is actually there. They know the right words to make you buy a product. Your self defense is left along with your bags at the entrance. Every time I walk in, I promise myself that i would not buy anything other my necessary to buy list. And I walk out with a bag of products i might not actually use more than two times, a grin and economically weaker. Cosmetics actually rules the world today. They were always a part of the women's world. Right from Cleopatra who indulged herself in milk and oil to the latest serums and creams. They have always been an mandate . Now it also has conquered the men's world.  The only product I knew before I came to this city was Gokul Sandal Powde...

When coffee became complicated

When did coffee become complicated. I can sense a frown in some faces. While others might think this as a stupid question. Most of us cannot life without Coffee. It is the best alarm in the world. A cup of this brewed liquid has always started my day. Many would agree with me on this fact. Sometimes more than 3 cups is needed to survive the day. The only coffee I knew was made of milk, coffee powder, sugar and the most important ingredient, mom's magic. I am not a coffee expert and don't plan to be one. Coffee became complicated to me on the day I entered Coffee Day. The menu card gave different names to my coffee, at different price ranges and exotic descriptions. I did not  understand if those variety really existed or if it just was a marketing gimmick to charge some extra bucks. Coffee did not cost a million, still more than I originally presumed .  Cappuccino What actually impressed me was the latte art on the top of it. It was good  but it was different...

A Night with the Moon

The clock struck 12.00 And I woke with a start I dont remember the cause of it I just woke up And stared into the big black sky Laced with white clouds The stars were twinkling happily And brought with it a ton of happy memories Moments which are long lost Yet a part of my life Then i saw you You were looking at me With deep concentration and a smile You were very handsome A creamy white face which held in it A million tales I was mesmerized by your beauty And tried to reach you Stupid it may sound But you made me do it Suddenly you moved far away And it made me sad I was almost in tears And you moved closer In an attempt to console me This game continued Till you hummed a sweet lullaby And made me sleep Only to dream about you O dear Moon You stun me Everytime I see you

Quest for questions and a better life

I am a small town girl. The first time I moved into the city. I was overwhelmed by the size and the people. Every thing was new.  All I thought was big and interesting to me was not the same in the big bad world. It was bit scary and intimidating. My small joys were no longer a part of the city. It was also life's way to make a change.  It was different. I had three choices . Either to remain the small town girl who craves , yet does not know anything nor has much friends to educate. Be the big world chick, who has changed and lost her identity. Learned and accepted a lot of things just to be a part of the world. The last choice is what most of us choose is the worst of all. We pretend to know everything. We are too embarrassed to ask in the fear to be ridiculed by others.Even Google cant ask us. Because we dont ask the right questions . It gives us hundreds of question options, But never tells us the right questions. Our search ends and accept the reality that we might not u...

An holy day to start a better life

Every time I sin you get hurt Every time I trip you fall for me Every angry word I say you bear the burn Sometimes I sin because of the circumstances Sometimes I sin out of spite Still you bear the pain With a smile in your face I am weak And prone to trip You understand me and help me to get up You hold me when its needed Yet you give me the space to walk You love me enough to sacrifice your life Even when I am not worth it You care embarrasses me I am really sorry for my mistakes I may fall again Only in the hope that you will catch me Please help me to be strong against temptations And help me be your child Jesus you died today many years ago But forgive me for killing you every day Through my thoughts, words and actions I regret most things I have done But today reminds me more of it This Good Friday please bless me And make me stronger
