I crave for freedom to do something for myself on my own terms
I have never got time to think about what to do to navigate the turns
I look forward for someone who can help me develop my resilience
I have been forced to seek answers within and put up an act of pretense
I question the fundamental premise about whether there is any freedom
Is it an illusion or is there a way to live differently while facing the storm
I question the fundamental principle of whether attachment ties me down
Is it a duty or is it a handicap that constrains me from wearing the crown
I wonder about the need for man to develop any social relationships in his prime
Is it only a self-serving defense to explain how he spent resources in his life time
I wonder about the need for man to spend time and indulge in any kind of activity
Is it a crime if man decides to cut himself off from society that attracts words of pity
I wonder about the lifecycle of man from the cradle to the grave that is a common link
Is it relevant for a man to explain about his pursuits or lack of one that invites no blink
I wonder about the expectations set on man to prove his worth to be seen as one of service
I wonder about whether man can ever live for himself or whether it is considered a vice!

Friendship Day
It is a pleasure as much a paradox to have a concept of a Friendship Day
It is the sign of the times that relationships evolve and bonds may no longer stay
It is as much an occasion for people to express their gratitude and have their say
It is an opportunity to reflect on the traits that draws you towards your friend’s bay
It reminds one of the times that were shared together during one’s youth and childhood
It recreates memories that one may aspire to relive especially if one seems lost in the woods
It helps one discriminate between the bitter-sweet sentiments that may regularly raise its hood
It helps when you connect with a long lost friend who reignites your passions and lifts your mood
It is a reality that the every individual’s life is as different as a set of chalk and cheese
It is also a truth that every individual aspires for an existence that is not run-of-the-mill
It helps one to single out those who truly matter and you can overcome barriers of distance
It may be a time to reach out and show that the association has endured the test of atomic lens
The cycle of time is always on the run as much as people evolve and undergo self-transformation
The individual trials faced by people may separate them as they travel in multiple directions
The social network may provide a platform to stay connected and act as a support system
The self-drive is required to take ownership despite the limitations and show your true intention!

Re-charge Your Life
As I fervently played to the Divine to help me find solutions to my issues and concerns
There appeared an old seer in a white robe and asked me the reason for my tension
As I was in two minds about whether to open out and speak my heart to a complete stranger
The seer seemed to have read my mind and subtly indicated his role to get me out of danger
As I spoke to him about all my worries and issues that I was faced with on a regular basis
He asked me my contribution to further enhance and willingness to not let go my fears
As I spoke to him about all my contribution and sacrifices for people who were dear and close
He asked me whether it any much mattered now as it was a chapter that was over and closed
As I spoke to him about how all my current challenges that were a result of my varied compromises
He asked me candidly about whether my focus was on reliving the past or creating a new future
As I expressed my desire to create a new future but had no clarity on the road map for the same
He asked me whether in my past I always looked for a road map to do something that was not a pain
As I spoke to him about how the joy had literally disappeared from my life and I was feeling lost
He asked me what excited me and the hobbies that made me happy and mattered the most
As I explained to him that I had no time for myself let alone make time for any kind of interests
He enquired about my reaction if all my concerns would get taken care provided a hobby is a must
As I continued to give excuses about lack of time and my emphasis on doing the right things my way
He enquired with me about my use of technology tools that was a part of my life and was here to stay
As I spoke about the latest gadgets that were used by me that made life simpler and helped me connect
He asked a blunt question on whether they needed rest and the result if I never let them disconnect
As I pointed it to him that the gadgets will not work effectively if I did not periodically give them rest
He smilingly asked me whether I had ever considered myself to be a gadget that was being put to test
As I had no ready answer and seemed to be in a spot, I could see him get ready with his next question
He boldly asked me whether the gadgets had a battery and whether they needed a regular recharge
As I timidly answered to him that none of the gadgets would operate without a regular recharge
He seemed to have come alive when he wisely asked me the impact on the flow of unwanted baggage
As I diffidently indicated to him about the obvious stagnation when garbage was allowed to accumulate
He with poise asked me what I was doing to let go the old garbage and start afresh on a new slate
As I could now absorb the wisdom flowing from the seer’s words that went beyond his garb and beard
I began to feel that the divine had heard my prayers and started this conversation that appeared weird
As the seer asked me in a very caring tone about my hobbies and interests that I had failed to follow
As I opened my heart out to him and cried aloud his response was cold and yet a bitter pill to swallow
I could not fathom this contrasting behavior and then all of a sudden he had a hearty laugh
He had read my mind and then spoke to me at length about the highs and lows of each one’s life
He asked me to make time and rekindle my hobbies and interests and take it one step at a time
He mentioned to me the initial resistance that I may personally face as I pen down my next rhyme
He stated to me that we all have a choice on the usage of our time and we need to stop putting blame
He spoke to me about the rhythmic cycles of Mother Nature that was ever glowing and yet to lose flame
He revealed to me the worth of making time for self and pursuing hobbies where one loses track of time
He explained to me the impact and the meaning of a life fully lived rather than cut short in the prime
As I was absorbing the magnitude of his words and began to slowly decipher the meaning
I realized that I had got lost in my own thoughts and become reactive and found life less fulfilling
I made a commitment to observe and be a part of the changing scenery and proactively initiate the flow
I realized my good fortune when the seer reflected radiance and disappeared leaving behind his halo!
