Magic happens....

Never be afraid of falling in love....because in fairytales, they dont find each other until..............

the last page...

I don't want castles,and gowns,and magic.....

But i want my fairytale to happen!!

<3

Some things that last forever......

Life's fair..it's disappointing...it has it's downs..it irritates..it exasperates...it winds me up...

But what the heck! who can deny the happiness u feel on those few days you get a chance to live,when EVERYTHING seems to be all right??when every problem of life seems to be too trivial to worry about! when all you want to do is live in the moment...breath..smile..laugh..be a dork..let loose...

Yeah you got that right...i just experienced one of 'those' days..

It was just me and three of my REAL good buddies...

Don't you wonder sometimes what we would be without our loved ones??or would we be anything at all??could we live??

I don't know if it was between sipping the coke..or if it was while making fun of each other..or during de-skinning the garlic (yeah..ok..kill me! i invited them over to my place and actually made them HELP me to cook!), was it during clutching each others hands as we watched a thriller movie..or during just sitting quietly and listening to soft-mushy romantic tracks..that i found the answer....

Ofcourse..i was nothing without them!

They make me what i am...like little pieces of a puzzle put together to complete a pattern...

Westlife says in one of their songs......

"Everybody's looking for something...one thing that makes it all complete....

you find it in the strangest places...places you never thought it could be.....

who can deny the joy it brings...when you found that special thing...

you're flying without wings....."

This is my special thing....my friends..!! Shreyoshee...my BFF..i know without her a big hole would be punched through my chest...a big hollow...unrepairable......

I can talk to her about any kind of gibberish under the sun..from how much i hate my phuchka-walla for making my phuchkas hot ( i can't stand chillies) to how sad i am for tearing my jeans accidentally....

She would risk her own life to solve my stupid problems...and I know she would go to the end of the world to find the things i need...and i would too....

Shreyo, if you're reading this, let me just take this chance to tell you what this freinship means to me...i've never had a friend like you...and wouldn't want to have another now...i wouldn't and couldn't share my love with ANYBODY else..

Just know one thing babe...anything for you...anytime! Love you bunches, monkey! mwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaahh <3

P.S~ Now that i read it over..it sounds like we're "that" kind of girls..oh god..we'r straight!! then why does this look so weird??!!Aaarrrgghh...i can never get anything right..!! :x

The child inside me......

I want to be a princess.....

But for the prince i couldn't care........

For my life has taught me very well.....

That my love i shouldn't share.....

Ohkaaaay....that was lame...but what the heck, i want to be a princess..!! ;) :P

<3

A letter to my love...........

My dearest....

I was walking down that once-familiar road today.....and i saw that old man sitting at his dingy shop...the shop jutting out of a corner of the road, made colorful by thousands of packets of this and that hanging from a feeble steel rod...he still sells those coloured ice-candies...i saw them in a glass jar..remember how much we loved those candies??and how we fought over which colour to buy...u loved the red best....i dont remember which colour i preferred....

The man smiled at me....his eyes had a question in them...he must have been wondering about you..how could i tell him what happened to us?how could i tell him how i lost you??

And i tried...but i couldn't smile back....

They say,

How could i tell him how thankful i was to you....for teaching me how strong i am....??

Figuring out this life.....

I wake up on my bed...

To find that everything has changed..

But i don't know the reason why....

I try to shout out loud...

But i can't fight my way out...

And the truth i just can't deny...

The world is spinning around me..

Nothing seems to be in its place...

I try to reach reality...

But i can't recognize a single face...

Why is everything so messed up??

Is this necessary, any way??

Why am i supposed to be the one??

Why can't i have my own say??

Is something really wrong with me??

Or is the world going wrong...??

Everyone can have their own tune...

So why can't i have my own song??

It's really no good living...

If you don't have a reason to live...

One day the world will be at my feet...

But why the hell should i forgive??

'Cause what people have done to me is not just damage...

They've created problems that have no cure...

But i won't get lost in this confusion...

I'll fight back and win, i'm so sure....

Things are falling apart and i cant fix them....

And voices are laughing at me...

Should i kick down all the fences...

Or should i just let it be??

So i pull up the sheets and get into bed...

And i won't give up anyway....

Even though i know i'll be more lifeless...

By the time it's a new day......................

~~Ridsi~~

At times, the obvious thing....is not that obvious....

I was being troubled by the usual morning pangs of hunger...a packet of biscuits seemed highly inviting at this volatile state of my appetite....

My mother froze as soon as she saw me entering the kitchen....and then looked at me as if I was missing my head or something...i did a quick check...my hair was in the expected just-out-of-the-bed state...my nose and ears seemed to be in their usual places....

"What???" i asked her.

By now, her shock had faded into something like a smirk-cum-smile.

Oh.My.God.

"Have i got a pimple????!!!!" i shrieked, my voice an octave higher.

"No no...it's just the way you are growing taller...like...overnight!" she said.

"Oh god! you almost gave me a heart attack!" i reached for the biscuits.

"It just seems like yesterday that you were a tiny little thing that i brought home from the hospital, and now, look at you! In a few years you wont even remember your parents!" she said.

"MOM! cummon now, take a chill pill.i'm just growing taller! it's not like i'm turning into a whole new person or something," i tried to reason with her.

"Are you not?" she said with one of those mysterious-and-unreadable looks on her face that always get me going.

I made it for the veranda.munching on the biscuits and chai i thought about how nowadays i spend my evenings Orkutting instead of cuddling up next to my mother listening to stories, or how most of time my headphone claimed my ears.....

Ofcourse! i was growing up to be a somewhat different person..and she would know...she's my MOM!

Suddenly, i felt the responsibility of growing up....i missed that little girl who held her father's finger moving through the crowded streets of the bazaar...clenching that long finger it felt like i was the most protected person on the earth.

The sound of her chuckles reverberated throughout the room when her sister found her long lost pen in the little one's pencil box....and the fear she felt when mum scolded her for wrapping mum's saree all over herself....

It was frightening...i did not want to grow up to be a lady and face this vast, unknown world all by myself....did not want to lose the innosence of childhood...did not want to leave back the memories captured in the camera.....

Growing up...............not such an easy job, is it?

What seems like the end, is only a bend.....

"You were like a meteor that shot through my sky...and suddenly everything around was ablaze, every tuft of grass, every drop of water was burning...i was awestruck at the beauty you had created..and i kept staring at the gorgeous light around me...then suddenly you disappeared..and everything was dark again...the pitch blackness hurted my eyes...i was lost without you...where could i find you, my angel???"

Not just a lesson learnt from life, but a lesson learnt well~ We love, we promise, we cheat, we forget....it all comes hand in hand....sometimes, our life gets addicted to an entity..everything pales into insignificance when compared to that someone...so much so that we lose the ability to tell apart our dreams and the truth...and our life quietly awaits that moment when our fantasies are punctured by the crudest of realities...that shatters our love, life and existence into pieces that cannot be put back together................

If only emotions could be stemmed...if a man pushed by his lover from a cliff-top survives..he doesn't try to kill himself...he limps all his way in life...but he lives, doesn't die....doesn't stop loving...

I've tripped in life, i've fallen, i've had my heart broken, i've stumbled, but have stood up again, i've lived, i've kept loving....

And i've learnt....what seems like the end of the road..is only another bend in the road...a new life, a new beginning............
