I know the way,but have lost the path...

As another day ends,as sun sets and rises in the west I ask myself am I more enlighten today than I was yesterday. I feel like a traveller who is lost in the forest. He knows he has to get out, to stay alive ,to continue his journey, but he has no idea how to get out. For some one who has so many flaws and few friends  i have always been told that my biggest strength is my "Enthusiasm" towards life, the zest to try and do everything there is out there to do. Some how i feel drained out. Need a refill. Hate living my life on Auto pilot. Hoping for a turn of events. Atleast i will be in thick of things. 

My earlier post when i was lost...

Dr. Can you glue my heart back, It's broken

I am great believer in that all the things that happen in your life they happen for a reason.

Ever heard of Six degree of Separation theory. Well it states that everyone on this planet is connected to everyone by six people they know. true or false critics are still out there. Internet has truly made are world a touch smaller than it use to be earlier. 

Someone just out of random ended up on my blog. Left a comment. I replied back. Ended up chatting courtesy the new chat feature in my blog which allows people to chat with me if i am online.So when you meet a complete stranger on the net. you talk and you exchange email id with that person, ends up adding him/her to your social network. Then you discover you have some common friend. Small world.Touche. And so it happened with me recently.

But I never thought we will meet again. I mean you dont have times for friends let alone strangers.I was up watching India thrash England,catching the score Online. Ya no TV. Somebody pops up and guess who. So more conversation. More people we know in common.

The talks last a bit longer. The other person opens up and ends up sharing some doubts about life with me. What made someone to share it with a stranger(Me. In this case)I dont know. May be it is easier to talk to someone who is not gonna judge you and will have an unbiased opinion. 

So for all those people who have been in love or are in love and have realised that love is not a two way street for them, I would say bad luck but you can always use a DETOUR.

If i would have been on radio i would have played a nice song for that friend of mine who is no longer a stranger. But since i am not i will let you guys read this  

EXCERPTS FROM SHANTARAM.

I couldn't explain that love to her, or anyone else, including me. I never believed in love until it happened to me. Then, when it did happen, it was as if every atom in my body had been changed, somehow. I was different, forever, just for the sight of her. And the love that opened in my heart seemed to drag the rest of my life behind it, from that moment onward. I heard her voice in every lovely sound the wind wrapped around me. Sometimes, when I thought of her, the hunger to touch her, and to kiss her and to breathe a scented minute of her black hair crushed the air in my lungs.

But she wasn't in love with me, she'd said, and she didn't want me to love her. Nothing grieves more deeply or pathetically than one half of a great love that isn't meant to be.

Most love's are like that. Your heart starts to feel like an overcrowded lifeboat. You throw your pride out to keep it afloat, and your self-respect and your independence. After a while you start throwing people out - your friends, everyone you used to know. And it's still not enough. The lifeboat is still sinking, and you know it's going to take you down with it.

At first, when we truly love someone, our greatest fear is that the loved one will stop loving us. What we should fear and dread,of course, is that we won't stop loving them, even after they are gone. For I still love you with the whole of my heart, I still love you. And sometimes, the love that I have, and can't give you, crushes the breath of my chest.

Fall in Love All over Again

yaadon mein jiski
kissi ka naam hai
sapnon ke jaisi
uski har shaam hai
koi toh ho jisse
apna dil dijiye
phir dekhiye…

This lyric from Rock On tells a story. This blog is all about love and songs. What’s my happiness quotient, if I can get up in the morning, and there is a song on my lips!!!

honton pe jiske
koi toh geet hai
woh haare bhi toh
uski hi jeet hai
dil mein jo geet hai
gunguna lijiye
phir dekhiye

My all time favourite romantic numbers are:

Abhi Na Jao Chhod Kar (Hum Dono - 1961): I just love this song. You just cannot have enough of someone whom you truly love. It’s amazing how the world seems so empty if your partner is not around.

When You Say Nothing at All (Notting Hill): The soundtrack is from my all time favourite romantic movie. I must have seen this movie n number of times. It’s true when you are in love you just don’t need words to communicate.

Pehla Nasha (Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar): This is the song on my lips when I am feeling top of this world. Your first Childhood crush, first time you fell in love. I guess this is the song when you are falling in love.

(Everything I do) I do it for you (Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves): Probably the song I wanna play, when I am gonna ask someone to marry me. It has been my number one song for years and I don’t think any song can come close to this. I mean seriously, what more does a guy needs to tell a gal. (Everything I do) I do it for you.


Life is short. So love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Just when I got all the answers of LIFE they changed the question...

Recently while browsing on the net I came across this quote on a blog. I have absolutely no idea who wrote this or from where it originally originated from but it did make me think…

The only constant thing in life is it ever changing nature and that’s what makes life very interesting or I may say darn difficult to predict.

You life is actually not yours. It may sound like a clichéd statement but if you really think you may agree with me that there are lots of other factors, variables present which force us to live a life which we may not wholly agree with.

Ever tried controlling your life? Well you may say we all are in control of our lives since we live in a free world but life doesn’t likes to be controled, like us it also wants to be free…
And due to this you life is never constant but a series of changing events which keeps you guessing as to what to do next.

It’s interesting to note that the twist in life comes when you least expects it to come… over the past few months I have realized that I cannot control life and the factors which govern it. The only thing which I can control is I…
And I have tried to associate all the world happiness, sadness to myself rather than associating it with someone else ... since i can control myself but not others..

Like I said in my earlier blog I have no idea where do these questions come from but one thing I am damn sure now is that we do have to come up with an answer to these questions…
