Song for the day

Do you think I'd give upThat this might've shook the love from meOr that I was on the brink?How could you think, darling, I'd scare so easily?Now that it's doneThere's not one thing that I would changeMy life was a storm, since I was bornHow could I fear any hurricane?
If someone asked me at the end
I'll tell them put me back in itDarling, I would do it again, ah, ahIf I could hold you for a minuteDarling, I'd go through it again, ah, ahI would still be surprised I could find you, darlingIn any lifeIf I could hold you for a minuteDarling, I would do it again, ah, ah
For all that was saidOf where we'd end up at the end of itWhen the heart would ceaseOurs never knew peaceWhat good would it be on the far side of things?It was too soonWhen that part of you was ripped awayA grip taking holdLike a cancer that growsEach piece of your body that it takes
Though I know my heart would break
I'll tell them put me back in itDarling, I would do it again, ah, ahIf I could hold you for a minuteDarling, I'd go through it again, ah, ahI would still be surprised I could find you, darlingIn any lifeIf I could hold you for a minuteDarling, I would do it again, ah, ah
I would not change it each time (I would not change it each time)Heaven is not fit to house a love (Heaven is not fit to house a love)Like you and I (like you and I)I would not change it each time (I would not change it each time)Heaven is not fit to house a love (Heaven is not fit to house a love)Like you and I (like you and I)I would not change it each time (I would not change it each time)Heaven is not fit to house a love (Heaven is not fit to house a love)Like you and I (like you and I).

Then Now It's finally over, my turbulent 20s. I don't think anyone would be so happy to turn 30, but I am. Finally! It's amazing how everyone believes that the teenage years are the most difficult. They are not. It's the 20s, that time of uncertainty and changes, that is. No one warns you about it, and most people just go around questioning their identities, their goals and their feelings during this time, and getting depressed or drugged out over it. Luckily for me, my sister, three years ahead of me, put down the warning sign. 'It's going to be very difficult, but after 27-28, it'll get easier." I have some young friends who are in that group now, and I try to be patient with them, tell them it's okay to feel confused, it's okay to not know what you want... It was difficult. I don't know how many times I have redefined who I was in the last ten years. I went from being a virgin to a wife to a divorcee by 25; and from a student to a journa

Bringing It Back

The simplest things in life are the ones that need to be cherished...like memories..like mothers...It's my Mom's birthday at the end of this month, and it comes once in four years. I always wanted to buy her diamonds, but my financial condition is so bad that I can't buy her anything at all. So I've decided to write her a letter, a long one...to tell her how muchI was always in awe of her as a child. She, the most beautiful, most kindest mother that one could have. Her food was always better than anyone else's, so was her style and her grace. My friends in school always looked in envy at my gorgeous mother with her short hair and sexy frocks. They begged to exchange tiffins with me. So I gave up three layered sandwiches and au gratin for someone's poha or chakli. She got us flowers everyday, and books from her office library which got us raps from Papa because they were read at the dinner table, also left in loos. I always say I owe who I am to a perfect mother

The Story of K (contd.)

-
K is perfect for me. The only problem is, he is imaginary. I made him up, hoping to visualise my fantasies into reality. In the process, I may have just done something that I myself am not aware of. Besides, it's always safer not to meddle with the powers of wish fulfilment. And I unknowingly, may have just done that...
