Our memories will last forever

"I know we'll be friends for life;
Sharing our dreams together.
As we walk down the road,
We'll never think twice,
Our memories will last forever.
And although we're off to two different worlds,
Somehow we're together.
And even though we're far apart,
Our memories are deep within our hearts.
These are the times to remember,
Our memories will last forever."

Where there is judgement, there is no love. And where there is love, there is no judgement.

My husband is an Engineer by profession, I love him for his steady nature, and I love the warm feeling when I lean against his broad shoulders. Three years of courtship and now, two years into marriage, I would have to admit, that I am getting tired of it. The reasons of me loving him before, has now transformed into the cause of all my restlessness. I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive when it comes to a relationship and my feelings, I yearn for the romantic moments, like a little girl yearning for candy. My husband, is my complete opposite, his lack of sensitivity, and the inability of bringing romantic moments into our marriage has disheartened me about love. One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I wanted a divorce.

"Why?" he asked, shocked. "I am tired, there are no reasons for everything in the world!" I answered. He kept silent the whole night, seems to be in deep thought with a lighted cigarette at all times.

My feeling of disappointment only increased, here was a man who can't even express his predicament, what else can I hope from him? And finally he asked me:" What can I do to change your mind?" Somebody said it right, it's hard to change a person's personality, and I guess, I have started losing faith in him.

Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered : "Here is the question, if you can answer and convince my heart, I will change my mind, Let's say, I want a flower located on the face of a mountain cliff, and we both are sure that picking the flower will cause your death, will you do it for me?" He said :" I will give you your answer tomorrow...." My hopes just sank by listening to his response.

I woke up the next morning to find him gone, and saw a piece of paper with his scratchy handwriting, underneath a milk glass, on the dining table near the front door, that goes....

My dear, "I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me to explain the reasons further.." This first line was already breaking my heart. I continued reading. "When you use the computer you always mess up the Software programs, and you cry in front of the screen, I have to save my fingers so that I can help to restore the programs.

You always leave the house keys behind, thus I have to save my legs to rush home to open the door for you. You love traveling but always lose your way in a new city, I have to save my eyes to show you the way.

You always have the cramps whenever your "good friend" approaches every month, I have to save my palms so that I can calm the cramps in your tummy. You like to stay indoors, and I worry that you will be infected by infantile autism. I have to save my mouth to tell you jokes and stories to cure your boredom.

You always stare at the computer, and that will do nothing good for your eyes, I have to save my eyes so that when we grow old, I can help to clip your nails,and help to remove those annoying white hairs. So I can also hold your hand while strolling down the beach, as you enjoy the sunshine and the beautiful sand... and tell you the colour of flowers, just like the color of the glow on your young face...

Thus, my dear, unless I am sure that there is someone who loves you more than I do... I could not pick that flower yet, and die.. " My tears fell on the letter, and blurred the ink of his handwriting... and as I continue on reading...

"Now, that you have finished reading my answer, if you are satisfied, please open the front door for I am standing outside bringing your favorite bread and fresh milk...

I rush to pull open the door, and saw his anxious face, clutching tightly with his hands, the milk bottle and loaf of bread.... Now I am very sure that no one will ever love me as much as he does, and I have decided to leave the flower alone...

That's life, and love. When one is surrounded by love, the feeling of excitement fades away, and one tends to ignore the true love that lies in between the peace and dullness.

Love shows up in all forms, it could be the most dull and boring form.. . flowers, and romantic moments are only used and appear on the surface of the relationship. Under all this, the pillar of true love stands… and that’s our life…

Where there is judgement, there is no love.
And where there is love, there is no judgement.

Thought of the day

There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout: This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.... When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.

What do you do when...

What do you do when you don't want to live,
But you're not yet ready to die?
What do you do when the life that you lead
Has turned out to be just a lie?
What do you do when you're so much alone
That it seems like there's no-one at all?
What do you do when you're right on the edge,
With no-one to catch you when you fall?
What do you do when you can't even pray,
Because there seems to be no point to prayer?
What can you do? Who can you call?
When it seems even God doesn't care.

She cries herself to sleep

She cries herself to sleep,
Only to wake up and hide some more
She wants so much to break free,
To let someone find her,
But she's scared.
Scared of what people will think,
Scared of what they might say,
So she hides,
Hoping and wishing that someone will find her, Some day.

तुम से बहुत कुछ कहना है, मगर

तुम से बहुत कुछ कहना है, मगर,
कभी तुम नहीं मिलते तो,
कभी अल्फाज़ नहीं मिलते।

एक नयी दुनिया बसाना चाहता हूँ, मगर,
कभी नींद नहीं आती,
कभी खवाब नहीं मिलते।

ये दूरियां तो मिटा दडों में एक पल में, मगर,
कभी कदम नहीं चलते, तो
कभी रस्ते नहीं मिलते।

If you see me walking with someone else

If you see me walking with someone else,
It's not because I want to..
It's because you weren't brave enough to walk by me.
If you see me smile,
It's not because I forgot you..
It's because I got tired of crying for you.
If you see me living again,
It's not because I've moved on..
It's because I hate the fact you can live without me.
So if I fall in love with someone else,
It's not because I want to..
It's because you weren't there to catch me...!!

मैं लफ़्ज़ों में कुछ भी इज़हार नहीं करता

मैं लफ़्ज़ों में कुछ भी इज़हार नहीं करता,
इस का मतलब ये नहीं की मैं तुझे से प्यार नहीं करता|

चाहता हूँ मैं तुझे आज भी पर,
बस तेरी सोच में वक़्त अब अपना बर्बाद नहीं करता|


तमाशा न बन जाये कहीं मुहब्बत मेरी,
इस लिए बस अपने दर्द का इज़हार नहीं करता|

जो कुछ मिला है उसी में खुश हूँ मैं अब,
तेरे लिए खुदा से तकरार नहीं करता|

पर कोई तो बात है तेरी "फितरत" में ज़ालिम,
वरना मैं तुझे चाहने की खता बार-बार नहीं करता|

Life gives us many different things..

Life gives us many different things,
Some are good some are bad.
Some are there to celebrate good times,
While others are there to make us feel sad.
But friends are there, there through it all
No matter how bad the time is, Or how hard and far the fall.
When push comes to shove, And you fall to the ground.
Whether because of some boy, Or losing to death someone you love
Friends are always there, No matter the strain
Whether the sun is shinning, Or it's pouring down rain.
Friends understand you, And the way you feel inside.
Whether your boy/girlfriend dumped you, Or one of your pets just died
Then when you move, And go far away
Give them your number, And they'll call you everyday.

Can you say sorry

Can you say sorry you didn't want to leave?
My body wouldn't let me breathe.
Would you give anything back for those days of joy?
To have another kiss with that boy.
Do you sit on your grave & reflect on your life
Think about how you were going to be his wife.
Wherever you go, do you grow old
Can yo feel the winter cold?
How long do you have to stay up there
If it means reliving this I don't think I could bare
Soon the answers He will give
But I'm not sure I want them if it means not to live

काश ! एक शाम उस ने भी मेरे शहर में बिताई होती|

जिस संजीदगी से किये थे उसने तमाम वादे
काश! निभाने में भी कुछ काम आई होती ....

वादों के टूटने का दर्द और जख्मो की चुभन
काश ! ये बात उसे भी किसी ने समझाई होती

याद में किसी की तमाम रात आँखों में गुजार देना
काश ! करवटों से उसके भी कुछ सलवटे आई होती

अनजाने शहर में किसी के पुकारने की उम्मीद करना
काश ! एक शाम उस ने भी मेरे शहर में बिताई होती|

- Shailesh Gupta

एक शख्स सारे शहर को वीरान कर गया

रुखसत हुआ तो बात मेरी मान कर गया
जो था उसके पास वो मुझे दान कर गया |

बिछड़ा कुछ इस अदा से के रुत ही बदल गयी
एक शख्स सारे शहर को वीरान कर गया |

दिलचस्प वाक्य है की कल एक अज़ीज़ दोस्त
अपनी मुफाद पर मुझे कुर्बान कर गया |

इतनी सुधर गयी है जुदाई में ज़िन्दगी
हाँ ! वो जफा से तो मुझ पे एहसान कर गया |

मैं बात बात पर कहता था जिसको जान
वो शख्स आखिर आज मुझे बेजान कर गया |

Do you get to ask why?

Do you get to ask why,
Will he tell you and can you cry.
To remember those, you left behind,
Can you now read their mind.
How to help with the grief,
Do you hear the cries of disbelief.
Can you say sorry, you didn't want to leave,
My body wouldn't let me breathe.
Would you give anything back for those days of joy,
To have another kiss with that boy.
Do you sit on your grave & reflect on your life,
Think about how you were going to be his wife.
Wherever you go, do you grow old,
Can yo feel the winter, cold.
How long do you have to stay up there,
If it means reliving this, I don't think I could bare.
Soon the answers He will give,
But I'm not sure I want them if it means not to live.

...जी चाहता है

कभी अपनी हँसी पर भी आता है गुस्सा
कभी सारे जहाँ को हँसाने को जी चाहता है।
कभी छुपा लेते है ग़मों को दिल के किसी कोने में,
कभी किसी को सब कुछ सुनाने को जी चाहता है।
कभी रोता नहीं दिल टूट जाने पर भी,
और कभी बस यूँही आँसू बहाने को जी चाहता है।
कभी हँसी सी आ जाती है भीगी यादों में,
तो कभी सब कुछ भुलाने को जी चाहता है।
कभी अच्छा सा लगता है आज़ाद उड़ना कहीं,
कभी किसी की बाँहों में सिमट जाने को जी चाहता है।
कभी सोचते हैं हो कुछ नया इस जिंदगी में,
कभी बस ऐसे ही जिए जाने को जी चाहता है।

You were the first person...

You were the first person to let me know how important I am.
You were the first person who held me really special.
You were the first person to love me this great.
And the person who sacrificed his feelings for my own good.
I don't want this love to be wasted.
If we are really for each other, I'll be happy.
If not I'll still remain happy for I have met a wonderful person like you.

More Than Anything

You said you care about me,
and I know it's true,
because when I look into your eyes,
the love shines through.

I've only to hear your voice to know
that your feelings run deep,
and I'm sure our love is a treasure
your heart will always keep.

I can see clearly
what you're feeling inside.
And I'll always be here for you
with arms open wide.

Even though you're far away,
you're all that I can see.
And, more than anything, I wish
that you were here with me.

I love you more than I ever thought I could.

All I ever wanted was, to be part of your heart,
And for us to be together, to never be apart.

No one else in the world can even compare,
You're perfect and so is this love that we share.

We have so much more than I ever thought we would,
I love you more than I ever thought I could.

Always believe in Miracles.

Believe in your heart that something wonderful is about to happen. Love your life.
Believe in your own powers, and your own potential, and in your own innate goodness.
Wake every morning with the awe of just being alive.
Discover each day the magnificent, awesome beauty in the world.
Explore and embrace life in yourself and in everyone you see each day.
Reach within to find your own specialness.
Amaze yourself and rouse those around you to the potential of each new day.
Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect; this is the essence of your humanity.
Let those who love you help you. Trust enough to be able to take.
Look with hope to the horizon of today, for today is all we truly have.
Live this day well. Let a little sun out as well as in.
Create your own rainbows. Be open to all your possibilities; all possibilities and Miracles.
Always believe in Miracles.

There is so much...

There is so much I want to share with you,
But my words are lost within me
I have so many emotions
How do I make you see

Life is not that simple
Hear this from my heart
Our love will concur all
As we stand here at the start.

Not speaking to you is killing me
You there and me here
But one day soon that will change
And I will finally have you near.

When I knelt down before her..

When I knelt down before her
Just to Say "I love you",
Do you think I was losing my self-respect ?
I wasn't... Instead I was gaining her respect.

When I mock and irritate her,
Do you feel she hates it ?
But No, she silently enjoys it.

When I'm sick and she's caring for me,
Do you think she's just doing her duty ?
No, But she’s dying herself just to see me alright.

When I do something wrong
n tears roll from her eyes,
Do you feel they are tears ? - No, They are not.

...तुमने कहा था

लौट के आएगी मोहब्बत की शाम, तुमने कहा था,
"ये जिंदगी हुयी तेरे नाम", तुमने कहा था।
इस आस पे गिर जाती हूँ मैं अक्सर,
"मैं लूँगा तुम्हें थाम", तुमने कहा था।
तेरी जुदाई तेरी यादों ने मार डाला है,
"मेरी मोहब्बत लेगी इन्तेकाम", तुमने कहा था।
हर जुबान पर हैं किस्से मेरी दीवानगी के,
"इतना ना चाहो मुझे, हो जाओगी बदनाम", तुमने कहा था।
जो दिल पे चोट खाए और फिर मुस्कुराये,
"मोहब्बत उसे करती है सलाम", तुमने कहा था।।
