mY cuPPa tEa!!!

This happens  to hav happened just yesterday when i sat in front o' my PC , checking out some blogs , holding a cuppa tea in my hand.......  Amazing isn't it ? How one Cup o' tea adds the something xtra to an activity as simple as reading..... honestly, for a person lik me who drinks plain milk at the other tyms of the day ..... drinking the evening cuppa' tea is heavenly bliss... i mean truly ... just imagine yourself holding a cup in hand, sipping hot  tea from the brim of the cup while ur doin' nothing......  the solitude it takes u to is just fabulous...may it be the effect of the antioxidants it contains o' whatever :) ..... i Feel something amazing...... 

Leaving all things aside, i sat sipping my tea which contains a bit of ginger essence , my favourite flavour that goes with it....   smacking my lips to the flavour... it's just so wow...... at this point i looked down at my cup... half-empty, relished by its so called "drinker" (As i call it)..ha ha ha.. observing the flecks of the tea leaves that lined the cup... i realized many things at that point of time... The so called "Cuppa TEA" signifies many things.....  as said above in one way it signifies the eternal bliss of solitude when enjoyed rather lavishly n loafingly... but,it has a different side when presented in front of people in a conference, appointment o' watever ... it signifies the serious side of a person... meaningly the "responsible" nature of a person when compared to one who prefers coffee... tea in such places acts lik a business stimulant..... n for people workin at the consoles its a thought stimulant n stress buster.... tea n biscuits in breaks with colleagues along ur side... wonderful way to chat ur way of many topics (lik sports for guys, n gossips n fashion for gals) ,along the break,hmmm, the thought does feel nice, ain't it? ;).... n think of the tea parties that the ladies arrange for themselves....( never heard of a coffee party though ;)  ) .... ha ha ha.....

i guess, tea is a stimulant in many ways...... Stimulate ... Such a wonderful word..... n a wonderful deed too... to arouse someone to do what he thinks is right, provokin him in a healthy way, building up his confidence...... provide excitement in a boring situation... all positive things "A single cuppa tea" does....u wonder if Tea does all that,huh???... For me, it does all those things....  right now, it STIMULATED me to write this blog.... ;) .... 

My conversation with the Sun

Hmmm.... this was way back b4 my teens....

 though i was a complete mischef manager at my school,always vid ppl around me who were also a part of the mischief team :) .... there was a completely a diff side of me when i got home in the evening... i preferred playing the quiet, soft natured the gal nextdoor n ma parents beloved daughter role..(when i say roles it doesn't mean as though i was acting it..). well, now i think of it... it looks as if that was when my dual natured part of being a gemini comes out to the max extent... he he he... anyways, i loved spendin my tym alone on the terrace watchin the settin sun as it was a beatiful sight to watch.... i used to practise it as the most wonderful part of daily routine...i felt bliss when i saw it everyday.... it was lik  a source to rejuvenate my energy levels(so that i can perform n plan more mischevious things the next day.. ha ha ha..)... 

 One day i felt as though the sun spoke out to me.... "hey Maya, i hav been watching u frm many days now..... why is dat u spend so much tym lookin at me??? " ..... startled as i was with this, i fumbled out.."hmm..huh..uh... i donno...". I wasn' ready with an answer to it... i hadn' thot of this at all... why spend so much tym lookin at the sun... " Even as i was thinkin it , i knew i had the answer to it waiting to blurt out all along...the next day this was what i replied to the sun.."we've always known u as the source of heat n light ... but very few ppl can truly understand what it means... it means u r the source n support to God's creativity...all the evolution on the planet wudn' hav happend if not for u... u hav been spectator to all the civilizations that hav flourished on  n also which hav perished... which means that the light which comes frm u is not just the photons as we call it... its something called the Light of Knowledge.... I happen to always wonder how you can always give out this heat n light which humans use to fulfill their phsyiological needs  but not for their psychological needs most of the tym... but still u continue to do the same routine , thinkin dat some day man will finally discover this piece of knowledge.... kudos , i hav to say, u havn'  got tired of doin the same routine just for the sake of others all along for millons of years..."....  Sun smiled n said," I m glad i m one number down of my target today ...".... :)

I treasure sweet old

 memoriesAs time goes swiftly by.
A few bring smiles of happiness
And some tears to the eye.

They all are precious in their way,
Reopening doors of old
That have been shut these many years--
What pictures they unfold!

These dear old, sweet old memories
All play their special part
In bringing joy and opening up
The latch strings of the heart.

WONDER OF IT ALL!!!!

I sat in front of my PC watching the snaps of my class trip.... the serene beauty of nature that captivated our eyes was still floating thru my imaginations..... i wondered of the beauty one can rejoice with ones eyes and the mystery that it held..... the following words reflect my thoughts ...

Do you ever wonder
At the wonder of it all?

Do you ever stand in awe
of the tiniest things
and how perfectly they work together?

Do you ever stop to think
about all the possibilities
and how even though they have no limit
they grow in number with every minute?

Do you ever wonder
when the leaves flutter down in autumn
at the incomprehensible power of life
that brings them back in spring?

Do you watch the waves roll in
and then look out far beyond them
where the water seems to touch the sky
and realize
that the vast expanse before your eyes
is only a small little corner
of all there really is?

And do you comprehend that all there really is,
as unimaginably grand as it may seem,
is only a smaller corner still
of all that there can be?

Do you ever wonder
how love can stay alive
past every pleasure and every pain
and even when there can be no hope
there is more than ever?

Do you ever struggle to lift a heavy rock and wonder
how a massive mountain can rise
thousands of feet above the plain
without even trying?

Do you ever realize that
no matter how much you may know,
no matter how many wonders you may have experienced,
there will always, always be more?

Do you ever wonder
why it is you wonder
and why you know what beauty is
even though you can't define it?

Do you ever wonder
who is doing the wondering,
who is looking out through your eyes
and feeling completely at home
with the wonder of it all?

Whatever you believe,
whatever you profess,
whatever you doubt or fear or hope for,
there are some things
your heart cannot deny
when you let go
and let yourself know
the wonder of it all.

HOPE

What I hope for is happiness.
What I hope for is love.
What I hope for is peace.
What I hope for is that hope itself is not lost.
Many people give upon hope,
Never going for more.
Never putting it on line and hoping that everything will be alright.
Hope is that what makes sorrow go away.
Hope is kingdom being build on it,
Hope is greatness would come past.
What I hope for is happiness
I hope for is love
I hope for a life of peace
I hope that hope itself never gets lost. :-)

DETERMINATION

Determination is what i need for the next few days ...My campus recruitments r approaching and as usual , i'm last in the line for preparation...i believe now, not only does my optimistic nature count , but so also does my determination to achieve what i want in the next few days.... here i am trying to inspire myself with poem below....not to quit my work until i'm satisfied with myself....

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will;

When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;

When the funds are low, and the debts are high;

And you want to smile but you have to sigh;

When care is pressing you down a bit -

Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Success is failure turned inside out;

The silver line of the clouds of doubt;

And you can never tell how close you are;

It may be near when it seems afar.

So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -

It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit.
