Oh baby...

I love to watch children... The way they look, the way they walk, how they carry themselves, their thoughts, their jabber... everything... the world that they live in is what every saint aspires to live in sometime...

eat when hungry, sleep when sleepy, laugh when feel like laughing n cry when there is a need to... everything learnt is play n everything done is fun... the words failures n success dont even exist in their dictionary...

they would try a 1000 times to walk n wouldve failed all those times... but their tiny hearts just trust they would eventually walk n one day they end up walking as well... they also learn to run, jump, hop, skip, crawl in the bargain... the process of learning is fun n there is no thought to the end result!

I recently noticed that my emotional temperment is so much similar to what a 3 to 4 months yr old baby goes through...

while playing, the baby tries to scratch its head n end up holding a lock of hair... it would even continue playing for sometime with one hand... but during a point reality dawns that the other hand is not in play... so instead of relaxing the fingers a lil bit it would start holding the hair tighter n try releasing the fingers which obviously wont work... it would keep trying harder n also get hurt while the fingers relentlessly keep pulling that shock of hair... they cry n cry n cry not knowing what to do... hearing it, the mother rushes to its side n teaches it to unhold n relieves the pain!

But frankly, guess am worse than the baby... when the baby doesnt know how to unhold, it atleast knows to cry for help... what do i do when i neither know to unhold nor to cry for help?

:)

Am feeling just awesome... more than awesome rather... am feeling my best! A feeling that things r happening as they ought to happen n when one's trust is put on something very deeply, its not wasted after all...

Iam really really thankful for the good things happening to me in this life n in the lives of ppl around me as well!!

Thank God!

Monkey Land!

I wish i was in the monkey land

The place where i was born!

The monkey kissed me on my chin

N said Goodbye to me!

U & I... In This Magical World

I believe in magic. Not one that requires fairies n elves, pixies n potions, castles n wands. I believe, quite simply, in the magic of life. There is magic everywhere...

I found magic in that girl walking towards me on the road. She was tiny with hardly enough skin to cover herself… there were several packets of ear buds n a few yellow mull cloths in her hand with eyes full of hope… That hope I realized was magic! I didn’t even let her go on with the usual ‘yekka, yekka! Pasikkudhu kaa!! Kaalailurundhu soru thingale kaa’ routine but bought the cloth immediately! Her hope that she would get something in return for what she had to offer was enough to stir that magic inside me!

I found magic once when the doctor asked me to look at the night sky after wearing my spectacles for the first time… I gasped when I saw so many stars n realized all of them were ‘round’! Till date, I always make time in the nights to watch the stars!

I find magic in waves… Especially after the tsunami… Its amazing to witness the control of the ocean, when all it takes is just a few minutes to gulp a city that was thriving with life seconds earlier… Pure Magic!

I find magic when ppl smile! Just that slight curve from the lips of a loved one is enough to make a magic potion to make anyone face anything… All those smiles r so precious n so many of us r so lucky to have it in abundance that we take it for granted…

When I look deeper, I find magic woven still deeper into all of us! All our emotions r magic… it’s a miracle to feel something… be it pain or pleasure! Anyone could define an emotion but not how those emotions feel and y we even feel them!! N that’s just the tip of the ice burg…

I feel am magic being a part of this miracle…

So as hutch goes…
