BLACK & WHITE

view from my room

Waking up at 5am on a sunday morning is not normal for me,but it has its own beauty,the silence all around and then the first ray of light,sounds filling the silence slowly and walking aroundthe house i find myself lost in thoughts,of A life gone by,a life yet to start and in midst of all this i am thinking of my present.Somuch changed in one go and here i am,struggling to find a hold of my life,taking a tight grip over my emotions,trying hard not to look back and to accept what is gifted to me.Why cant i see a clear picture of a tomorrow?I wish i knew:)
I remember a line by Gulzar.....

'Mushkil hai aakaash pe chalana, Taarey paaon mein chubhtey hain"

In the Garden
jab kabhi mudke dekhata huun main
tum bhi kuch ajanabi si lagatii ho
mai bhii kuch ajanabi saa lagataa huun
ham jahaan the vahaan pe ab to nahin
paas rehane kaa bhi sabab to nahin
koi naarazagii nahiin hai magar
phir bhii ruuthii huii sii lagatii ho
tum bhi ab ajanabi si lagati ho
jab kabhii mudke dekhata huun main
Gulzar

The most beautiful things happen to us when we are least prepared.
So just soak it in and life is already on track !

johari ki nazar!!.. maan gaye.. you always pick out gems. Is ke saath apni kavita joD ne ki gustaaki na karoonGa maGar, ye paDke mai bhi zara laut gaya us raah pe -

yahi to hai woh raastaa
chalnaa to tere saath thaa
kya sahi tha, kya galat raha
faislaa to mere haath thaa

tere ashq the, tera pyar tha
seene mein kaisa dard tha
tere nain puuchte reh gaye
mai hi tha jo khaamosh tha

...those unspoken words, those lost opportunities
those distant memories, aftertaste of yesterdays
