I owe it to you

I haven't been well for 2 weeks or so..my old perpetual stomach issues

Cant eat, cant survive without eating..its a catch 22 situation

My parents and I always feared it has to do with some serious problem inside my stomach..and it needed an endoscopy to be done..which is a painful procedure where they put in a tube inside your mouth till stomach...

But this time around I thought I would do it..once and for all know what the issue is..
And surprisingly everything is perfectly normal..even the ultra sono-graph says "Essentially normal"

I was quite pleasantly surprised (but the fact remains that my stomach does not still behave it self)..

Inspite of me letting my body go through so much of atrocities like outside food, bad food, irregular food habits (comes with being on your own) and alcohal..it still has retained its vital organs in its normal conditions

So I thought I owe it to my body, for being so fine with my bad habits
At least now I should have a good and better food regime..

Lets see how much of it I follow!

Father's day

Today is father's day.. I wasnt aware of it...I knew its in June but dint know the exact date.
Incidentally I was cleaning up my place and all the junk it held and I came across some of the letters and cards which my father had sent me long back..more than 10 years ago

He had written so many things to me..how he was so proud of me..how he missed me at home and so many other things...
I think I took it all for granted back then..cos I knew I was important to him and his writing all that to me just meant assertion of all the facts that I already knew

But now when I look back...now that our interactions are so less..and our fights so much more..the past means so much to me
To know that there was a point when we were so close...when we could talk about just anything under the sun

I thought of him as the smartest and the brightest father in the world..and I still do.his passion for chess(which made us know of most of the chess moves), cricket, tennis, books, science and so many things made me think there is not a single thing in the world that my father does not know about

And I took him to be a super human..incapable of follies..and I guess I erred there




And now..why has it become so difficult to be the same..why have we become so distant? We just call and talk about inane things...

Sometimes I am left thinking...
Does my father know that his daughter sometimes cries for no reason..that at times she spends her days thinking of past and doesnt want to live in the presnt..

Does he know that this life he brought into the world..isnt happy with the world and the people in this world all the time?

Massakali jara mattakali


Some body asked me today..hey I do not understand the meaning of this song.."massakali jara mattakali..tadi se mud ada se ud..chal fur fur..tujhe hero banana re.." do you get it?
I could not reply for a second..and then I smiled within..and felt like telling her..

If this song does not stir something in you..if it does not make you feel light and vibrant and smile...how can I explain it..
No I can not....how does one define meaning of words and sentences which are meaningless yet express a lot?

well you would understand this song only if you are one "masakkali" ;)

The sea that never was...

I thought there was a sea inside you
So took a plunge to discover its mysteries
But I erred, marred by my vision
Cos the water was shallow
And I got hurt
By the shallowness of your being

If Only!

He was couple of years younger to her...and a junior in college
But right from the very first day she saw him..she knew there was something about him..and she also knew that he could sense the same

Though they barely spoke in the very 1st meeting..he was a little zombied fresher..and she was surrounded by her friends..and was a senior

And then in the next few months her life changed..as if all that she thought of love,all her naive feelings and innocent dreams, were coming alive..She was singing all her unsung songs..

She woke up with his thoughts in mind..drifted along the day in a dream..slept smiling at the world with his thoughts again
Everything she did, this constant feeling of him being around was there..maybe he would come to the canteen..or maybe she would see him running down the stairs..

They both knew there was something special goign on...even while she talked with him of other guys and he about other women...teasing..flirting..laughing..singing

He was like a part of her..yet so different from her..the beautiful medley of contradictions

And one day, when she was leaving that place for ever..having finished her course..he asked her out..and while they were together he held her hand for one brief moment..maybe a few seconds..and as if something melted within..she felt like an alien to herself...alien to this new feeling which was overpowering her

Then she left the place..and he wrote letters to her..but she dint know what she wanted out of this..she dint know if she could survive this love that she felt inside..but all the while, she couldnt think of anything else

And one day..when they met..and he said "I have a cursh on you..you must have sensed..tell me were you ever attracted to me in any way?"

And she lied...

cos she knew truth would land her somewhere she wasnt comfortable being..she wasnt comfortable being in love...so she said "No never", with as placid a face as she could manage
That was the biggest lie of her life...
On that he said "Thats ok..I wont keep in touch now cos I dont want to deal with one sided feeling".
She wanted to revert the whole thing..to let go of her inhibitions and tell him she has no other thought in her mind but him, since the time she met him..

but she wouldnt..that wasnt meant to be

And even today she wonders..would things be different if she had answered differently..should she regret?

On a hindsight she feels..it ended as it was meant to..beautiful as long as it existed

Time is the worst enemy
It just goes by..touching everything with its harshness
Taking away all the moisture..leaving them dry
Taking away thier sweetness...leaving forgetfullness

I dont know why they say..time is the best healer??!!
