I feel lost in this world, A world which I once thought was beautiful, For I don’t recognize it anymore, And the evils that today it stands for. Why have we built walls that divide, When we can all stand united? Why have we sown seeds of hatred and discord, Instead of nurturing peace and harmony? Where are kindness, compassion and love, In this world […]
I step into another year, Hoping that it is going to be better. I stare at the dream-catcher that’s near, Wondering if it knows any better. O dream-catcher, tell me, Will good dreams come my way, Will I be set free, From the snare of nightmares that come my way? Will you protect me from all that is bad, Of those nightmares that scare me, […]
The last Monday of the year is upon us. 2019 is almost over and I can’t believe that yet. I know we keep telling that each year, but somehow I felt that this year went by in a rush and I’m still trying to process all that happened this year. There were highs and lows, but what matters the most is what I had to […]
Christmas is over but for me, that feeling of Christmas stays well into the new year. Come December and like every year, I eagerly await Christmas. This has been the case ever since I was a child. The preparations that begin almost a month earlier with the beginning of Advent, the decorations, the sweets, the crib, the carols and not to forget, the gifts – Christmas always has […]
December is here and that means it is a time for celebrations, of giving and sharing. And there is so much to do because Christmas is almost here. I can’t believe that this year is almost over- this year that brought along a lot of changes in my life is almost over. While I begin to think about it all, if there is one gift […]
20 years ago, I wanted to be so many things, but now, I’d rather be just me. As a kid, I’d never stopped dreaming. There were so many things that I wanted to be and there were so many things that I wanted to do. If someone asked me what I wanted to be, I always had an answer though a different one. It would […]
With a long list of things to do, From one thing to the next I run, Caught in this mess, I wonder, Wasn’t life supposed to be fun? My body craves for that restful sleep, While I battle through nightmares of tomorrow. My mind craves for those moments of peace, But I end up in the depths of sorrow. Life has become a crazy race, And I long for those days […]
I’ve always been mesmerized by nature and I’ve always wanted to see more of it by visiting different places spread across various countries. This has been my dream since I was a kid. When I was scheduled to visit Germany on a work trip and some of my colleagues who were already there told me that they were planning a trip to Croatia and Slovenia […]
Like a flower, Which grew each day, From a bud, Blooming where it was planted, Can I choose to grow each day? Spreading the fragrance of joy, Bringing a smile on people’s faces, Adding a splash of colour to mundane things, Like a flower, Can I add beauty to the lives of people around? Swaying gently in the wind, Not worrying about things that aren’t […]
There is a slight nip in the air. The gloomy weather doesn’t go well with me but today I’m determined to not let the weather affect my mood. Because this is the day that I wait for every year- every year since you left town. For it isn’t that time of the year without you. We were teenagers then, each of us with dreams of […]
