Standing Against the World

It's a feeling you can't hide or deny. You want to run away from everything that you've created and start afresh. You feel the need to just rush into a room and lock yourself where no one can find you.

Negativity is all that goes around and comes back around to you. It's all an unbelievable mess! Well what can you expect one to do in such situations in the present generation? Life is a competition and we are all racing towards achieving endless goals. "I want to be better than him/ her" , "I want to get the newly launched cell phone", "I want a bigger home to live in" , I want this and I want that...! This is all we do! We just want everything for the sake of others not because you deserve it or not because you love to earn it.

If Mr.X says that the outfit I am wearing looks terrible on me then I would chose to believe him rather than the choice I made to wear that particular outfit. We choose to believe people who enter our lives after ourselves, who we believe know us better than ourselves. Why can't we just stop for a minute and think! Why can't we live life as it comes to us and not try and jumble things to make it as we want it to be. Why can't we just be clear of what we want to do and what we have to do? Why is there a word like "maybe" in our dictionary? Think over it, if life would just exist on Yes and No with a perfect blend of self-confidence, things would definitely be less complicated.

If you want something, ask for it. If you wish to say something, jut say it. You don't like it, just be blunt and speak the truth. If you stand against the odd with this attitude nothing is definitely going to pull you back down! The way you live life simply depends on the way you want to. Your life completely and totally depends on what you make of it. 

Standing against the odds is a challenge not everyone passes. Many fall and many just surpass it by facing it like just another problem. A movie I watched has quite taught me how to control what I have to hear and what is completely needed to be filtered and heard. The movie's name is "Shawshank redemption"- a 1994 American drama film written and directed by Frank Darabont and starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. Thank you Jolene Saldanha for introducing me to this movie. I strongly recommend each one of you to watch this movie. It just changes the mindset of a person to a great extent. I agree implementing is difficult but I'm sure you will make efforts to work on them after having watched this movie.

Standing against the odds? Well,Frank Darabont couldn't have explained what I want to say in any other way humanly possible. Here is a short trailer so you catch a glimpse of the movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmzuHjWmXOc 

Believe me or not the inspiration Andy could give any man is a controversial topic but there is no doubt that it could change you for a bit. 

And So I would like to end this article on a small note which is a small quote in the words of Andy, "Get busy living or Get busy DYING!" - It is simply by your choice!

Hoping that this article would have changed a little bit from withing you, if not a lot! :D

It's Just YOU and ME...!

It's the expression you need to read, 

The actions you need to see,

It's the love you need to share, 

To see each others loving care,

It's the fights that need to take place, 

For the spark to ignite and blaze, 

It's when I have a fall, 

That I get a phone call,

It's that moment of truth, 

When you stand and look like a crook,

It's those eyes that watch me all the time,

When I'm wrong or right to change what is mine,

It's my blonde brains,

That gets your way of thinking a strain,

It's when you said you needed m' 

That I felt you presence at a spree,

It's when you said so cruelly,

We have no future that you could see,

With all the drama tagging along,

Life seems but a boring song,

And that is when you come along 

So I can say this on and on...

It's your pure heart that makes me say today, 

I need you every day.

Just been a long journey ...! - Mumbai !

Been a long time since I've written, but Hey its been a long long year and a very long long time.

Its a crazy journey that life takes you onn when in Mumbai. A city that never sleeps, a city filled with lights, drama, action and liveliness.

From the people to their culture , from the way of living to the attitude, everything is just a step different from other parts of the world. I'd like to refer them as the Mumbai nomads. People who know a lot but yet behave like they were born just yesterday.

The food here is fast not fresh but simple. Well someday that is what will keep anyone coming back for more. The travel may just make you say "Not another day please".

Its a different way of living here. I'm just a newbee rider in the city but I'm already on fire. That's what this city makes you; bold beautiful and furious... All at the same time. Living in Mumbai surely does not want me to get out of here but yes there is a light which I search for to see a Mumbai which most of us dream of. Clean and green, fresh and peacful, nonetheless... Its Mumbai nagaria. N I'm loving it.

My past year had been an adventure up side down but that's just made me a stronger explorer. Meeting new people living the usual and steering the wheels on new quests is what I'm on right now! So lets see where life takese until then ill be coming up with more ....! Keep following guys :-)

This is a poem for my mother's brother .. AKA. Roquemama. A small gift on his bday which is on the 7th Jan. I take this opportunity to thank you for whatever you have done for me till today and I know you will always continue to...!

From the very first day
When I was on the way
From that very moment
When you took the token.

You held me close
And never let me fall
Since then for all
You always took the call.

My every birthday
Was as special as you are today
Without you I felt
Like it was just another day.

We laughed and joked
But also chocked
My daddy you are for sure
whose heart is very pure

I know you have always been there
And I thank you for showing that extra care
I have always troubled you with my non sense
Still you have always welcomed me without any fence

The mermaids, the footballs
the swords and the steel walls,
the lovely blue cake,
And the creative things that you make

Your brain that triggers
Is a sign with figures
You give us the shivers
That no body delivers

I run out of words as I write this poem today
I hope I have delivered most of what I have to say
My love for you will never shrink
you are the best I can say it without a blink

Today is your birthday..!
And I would Like to say
There is none like you who would stay
Roquemama I'll love you always!

- Marian Lima.

It's a Puzzle ... !

It’s a puzzle,

Remembering the days when you were here

Sure puts a teardrop on my guitar

Remembering the days when you were there right next to me

Sure to share your smile with me

Remembering the days when you held my hand

Sure to promise me you would be there

Remembering the days when you kissed my cheeks

Sure to promise me that I was your very Christmas gift.

Remembering the very first day you met me

At the graveyard we set our hearts free

Remembering the times we cried together

Sure those made me feel so close to you

Remembering the times we laughed and shared our true selves

Sure that made me feel I’m all yours

Remembering our promises that we exchanged right under the cross

Sure that makes me kneel and pray for that very day

The very day I met you

The very day I first made you mine

The very day we shared a smile and fell in love

The very day I met the one I loved and set my heart on

That very day we vowed to be one

That very day today is now gone forever

I still wait in silence wanting that day to come back

I still wait in eagerness wanting to feel your presence

I still wait in impatience to feel your touch

I still wait anxiously for that one kiss on my cheeks

I still wait desperately for you

Knowing that you wouldn’t come back ever

I wait for my heart to console itself it’s time

I wait for my eyes to understand that they need to stop looking out for you

I wait for my cheeks to stop wanting the touch of your lips

I wait for my hands to convince me at every point in life that

Here I am alone and positive

Knowing you won’t come back

Knowing my time was up long ago

Knowing that I now I’m just another girl

Knowing that today there is someone else

I still wait and I will keep waiting…. 

Until I find the reason to stop looking

Until I find the other you

Until I find a heart for my heart

Until I find a soul that can win over mine

Until I find a man who would know me more than you did

Life is different today

Feels lifeless today

Life is lonely today

But my journey fills in for you

My heart is empty today

But no one to fill in this blankness 

My heart is filled with questions today

None of which could be answered anymore

My heart is filled with a complete emptiness

One that is hard to shed light on.

I know I need someone

A one to fill in for you

5 years down the line

I feel is just so cruel

I’m waiting for the one today

But finding none who’d stay

I wish I’d never loved

A man who’d go away

My tears are all dried up

Yet in my heart I pray

For a tear drop to fall
so I could get away

My life is on a standstill

An yet there is no glee

My life is just another picture

That entertains but has no fee

I wish for this to end someday

This emptiness, sadness and stray

I want to be happy

But who could show me the way?

 

I will be happy one day

I’m sure to live that day

It’s a puzzle today

But it’s sure to come my way …!
