#timefornature


                                            #timefornature

There were times when I was too tired to even wake up

And the sweet chirping voices of little birdies smiled at ME.

 

There were times when I was too bored to even step out

And the bunch of lush mighty green trees sang to ME.

 

There were times when I wanted to just wander away

And all I could smell was the rain drops that drenched ME.

 

There were times when I could only think of flying high

And I came to know how fresh the cool breeze tasted to ME.

 

There were times when I thought it was alright to be lazy

And I could hear the tall dark mountains call out to ME.

 

There were times when I was too naïve to share things with the rest

And I got to feel this piece of land bring out its warmth to ME.

 

There were times when I was too broken to get my pieces together

And I laughed when the waves of the sea cuddled with ME.

 

There were times when I roared with anger at all that was wrong

And the broody plants in my garden heartily welcomed ME.

 

There were times when I cried all I could for being a failure

And the teeny insects showed what actually mattered to ME.

 

There were times when I saw myself totally caged to my dreams

And the wild ones in sanctuaries taught what freedom is to ME.

 

There were times when I fell prey to this worldly system driven by greed

And the disasters and calamities of nature envisioned ME.

 

And now, after all this, I guess I should consider that

It is high time that I give back my #timefornature

As nature has never backed out to find time for ME.

Monday Mornings

Monday Mornings taught me that it's fine to forget the sweet memories of yesterday and move on to the goodies coming forth. During my early days of life Monday Mornings were filled with gradual lethargy caused due to the remains of the previous days' fun and frolic leading to come up with various reasons of not going to School but in vain. A little later they marked the excitement of getting back to my pals with juicy gossip and blabber within me and I started looking forward to the Monday Mornings. End of school and it looked as if these Monday Mornings would never turn up again in life. And they never did....till date. Monday Mornings taught me that it is not always what happens but also who all were with us when it happened that that makes it a special memory.   When in college it was a different story altogether. We considered it to be the best day of the whole week when we used to spend the whole day scheduling our week on submitting assignments with " Better late ...

A Religion called TECHNOLOGY

How many of us understand our religion let alone following it religiously? None. Now that was way too easy. Most of us actually get irritated on the name of religion, yes, you read it right. IRRITATED. Might be because it's so complicated to understand and more so to follow. Yet, there's a strange thing which I have noticed. A special religion which we keep following while we study, play, work, dine, gossip and even when we need to communicate to one another. A religion which we follow sub consciously all through the day and can't do without. A religion, called TECHNOLOGY .  A religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a supernatural agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs - Wikipedia says it.   We don't wake up to the tinkling of our Mom's Bangles, we don't g...

Change - the only constant in any equation - LIFE.

According to the world's best teacher, everything does not remain the same and the essence lies in not remaining the same, for better or for worse. Anything that stays the same for long either becomes stagnant or turns out to be an addiction. This teacher of mine taught me that it is an art and there are no masters or leaders at it, only beginners and followers. An art that can make a world out of nothing or nothing out of the world. An art which is seldom taught but definitely learnt by one and all. An art which can turn the tables upside down. An art called CHANGE. As a kid I always wanted to change the way people around looked at me but could not help doing much about it. With the kind of ways that I chose, it was but evident that people around would surely consider me an insane nut with few loose screws here and there. Pity. Every now and then at School and College I wished for a change in what was being taught to us as it was like trying to learn something which I was not ...
