The key to a woman's heart...

There are many locks that are made out of progressing time. The owners of these locks secure the keys safely in their silent heart. Eyes express out everything silently. the indication is softer than a whisper. As a result, no one finds a way to reach the keys, and even if one does, it is a rarity.

A woman's heart is considered an ocean of secrets. It is almost next to impossible to find a key that can reveal her heart. Perhaps, it is because a woman hides the dark truth behind her silent eyes, expressing nothing. However, the path leading to the means is acquired step by step, by understanding the lady. And understanding her is the biggest challenge that one faces in due course of knowing a woman.

The bond that one shares with a woman, decides the fate of the person who wants to peep into her heart. Time strengthens the relationship. Innumerable tests decide if one deserves to move ahead on the path to discover the key. Sharing a lady's feelings and learning to know her in and out are the two methods that bridge an unbreakable and trustworthy bond between the two. And finally, a relationship develops where the eyes speak out everything. Everything seems to be heard without saying anything. The bond holds no identity. It is built out of the eternal emotions that mesmerize the lives. This pure connection constructs the key, and the lock opens up automatically.

If...

Life is endowed with innumerable things to learn from the experiences that come face to face with an individual, in due course of this journey from birth to death. love is one of the purest feelings that one comes across while treading along this path. According to me, it s an emotion that enthralls life with all the happiness that one aspires for. It lives beyond mortal death and that's how man becomes immortal.

My life brought in a feeling as pure as this, when I'd begun a new phase of my life at my Junior College. Life seemed to have achieved all that's required to make to enjoy bliss. I often wondered,"If i had not been gifted with Love, life would wouldn't have been as beautiful as it is today." Time proceeded with love and everything seemed perfect. Then came a 'Tsunami' in our lives, which left everything devastated. Everything seemed to have lost its identity. I didn't possess a heart anymore. life had lost its soul. The remnant were shattered pieces of a feeling as eternal as Love.

My mind always told me thereon,"If I hadn't fallen for it, I wouldn't have been killed." Trust seemed to find no room in my life for anyone. I still remember the tear that rolled out, it reminds me that it is next to impossible to find Love. I was reluctant to face myself after having met with betrayal in love. My life seemed to have lost. I trembled without my soul. The fiasco in love changed me, perhaps both for the good and bad. i could not shelter my feelings anywhere. Today, after 6 months and 21 days of my death, the tears beg for mercy. My long lost soul cries out, day and night, "Get me back to my life"...It sends its message in the form of tears that pour out every night. My body is an alive corpse. The scars will last forever. I'll never forget the time when I met defeat in sustaining Love.

I often wonder,"Why was I punished for a mistake which I never committed?"'Betrayal', is something I've experienced earlier in my journey. Tasting dust after the betrayal in love has eroded the feelings that I held for love once upon a time. I fear to secure my faith in anyone. No one, has witnessed my tears. I'm happy for that 'coz they would have realised that I'm hollow from within, which I'd never want to happen. The world seems to make me aware that finding True Love is the biggest challenges in life. And sustaining it beyond perfection is a tougher struggle. today, I satisfy my long lost soul by realising that,"If I hadn't fallen down, how would I ever realise that Life is not an easy game to play?", My tears cry for what happened in the past. But, if it hadn't occurred, i would have never learnt that,"One has to sail life's boat along with the waves of time to reach the shore of happiness". I'm happy life has hewn out the maturity and wisdom that hid itself in the small temple of my long lost isolated soul. It continues to cry, tears find their way out and each time it helps me learn something new to live life in a better way.

Well, as a matter of fact, my broken heart can never be mended. But, It'll continue to live life 'coz I know someday things will change for the better. Perhaps, the emotion that I once held of Love shall rejuvenate and bring my soul back, if and only if the times change. But still, even today I wonder,"If ......my boat had toppled over, I wouldn't have ever learnt the mystery of Love and its meaning. Perhaps life would have been different".

Friendship or Love?

According to me, the two most important things in life are friendship and love. My life revolves around these two eternal feelings that engross human life in all the diverse colours possible. Both, friendship and love hold a lot of importance , perhaps equally in life. But, when the two have to confront each other, a battle begins. A battle where anything and everything can be used to win except for cheating. It is a war where no one loses, neither does anyone win. However, when such a situation arises in life, it becomes impossible to choose one over the other. Nevertheless, this situation has occurred in many lives so far. When one goes out of their way to choose, be it friendship or love, it has made an impact on the life ahead of the individual.

If I had to describe friendship, I would just state that it is one of the purest feelings that one comes across. Friendship is the elixir of my life. Love doesn't require an introduction. The word, LOVE is enough to state everything that it hold to fill tranquility in one's life. One can live without love but it is very difficult and frightening to imagine a world without friends. As a result it is so often said,"Friends needn't be lovers, but lovers have to be friends." Friendship finds it way everywhere, even in a feeling as eternal as love. If it is hard to find Love, it is harder to find friendship. In today's scenario, the teeming millions consider love as an accessory to be bought, used and thrown as thrash. Despite having no knowledge about friendship, many souls misuse the tag of friendship for their good, often harming the other adversely.

If friendship leaves one mentally disturbed after betrayal, then the betrayal in love deprives one of their soul. One may never live life with the same trust in anyone after having experienced betrayal in friendship. But, when one is subjected to tripping and falling down in love, the person's life can never be the same again. Indeed, the person may never again live life. At such a stage in life, it is one and only friendship that comes to the rescue. It is not easy for one to live life after having tasted sorrow in love. But, friendship outperforms that hurdle and gifts a new life to the victim.

In due respect of this fact of my life, I have realised that friendship is the most essential part of life. It teaches one everything. As a result laureates say,"One needs to trip and stand up again on his feet to realise the mystery of living life in the right way." I've learnt that both in friendship and in love. And I feel blessed to have witnessed moments of utter grief, they've taught me to live life the way it moves on. The ultimate pain in Love's and Friendship's betrayal is something that I had never expected in my life. However, as the most unexpected things in life come true, so did this one. I trembled to trust anyone again when I confronted a fiasco in friendship at school. I shattered into pieces when I met with the same accident in love, a year later. But by then things had taken a turn for the good. My friends became my family, my breath, my life, when they helped me march ahead to live a happier life...

Perhaps, that led to the realisation that Friendship is my life. That's why today i choose Friendship over Love. As I had earlier said, this choice will leave an indelible mark for the life ahead of me. But then at every stage in life, my friends shall matter the most, no matter what. They mean the world to me. They comprise the music of my life, to which I am dancing, happily and I will continue to do so forever 'coz I know "Love is not my cup of tea", so I'm happy to choose Friendship that'll spread and help me spread happiness and love all around.

C'est la vie~This is life

Life is an unsolved puzzle.The events that occur in life are only a means that perhaps, lead men closer to a destination....a destination which holds life's meaning.As a matter of fact the incidents of life are so diverse that leave men confused and that is something which drifts the destination further. Man's enemy in this journey is his dear friend, 'Worry'. It diverts man from taking analytical steps in due course of the challenges that he gets to confront from time to time.

Well, this is how one's destination never seems to come closer as we march ahead in life. It is difficult for man to realise this because he gets carried away by the current that 'Worry' sets for him since he lives in the misconception that things can take a turn, for the better, once he consults with 'Worry'. One of the deepest mysteries of life lies in the trick of how one tackles a situation when he is overwhelmed with 'Worry'. Perhaps, solving this piece of Life's Puzzle is the first stage in deciphering 'Life's Mystery'.

Things go haywire when we look forward to 'Worry' to shelter our troubles. In fact what is the use of worrying when we know that it can never do any good to us. The only thing that Worry can do is for its own good thereby displaying its selfish trait. Worry is like a bed bug that erodes one's self confidence. As a result, its only dust that is left behind for man to taste.

Well, overpowering 'Worry' and marching towards a new horizon is one of the biggest challenges of Life. Cogently competing with situations in life can be possible only if we learn to conquer this so called friend. It's an uphill task for everyone. However, as nothing is impossible in this world, so is winning the battle of Life. The mantra of living a happy life rests on the result of man's battle with 'Worry'....

As a very dear friend says ,

"If you can solve your problem, then what is the use of worrying;

If you can't solve your problem, then what is the need of worrying",

I believe that once man outperforms 'Worry', both success and happiness tread along with him all through his Life. Henceforth, it leads towards the ultimate realisation, Life's meaning...

So keep smiling....Always....Welcome the ups and downs of Life. When they realise that you are ready to confront them with all the courage, then their steps falter and it leads to your victory....

Amidst the darkness of night,

Shines a beacon of light;

Instilling the power,

To march ahead in life.
