Love Me Once Again

I have allowed you today To touch my heart once again I have allowed you today To love me once again I give you another chance To share my smiles with you I give you another chance To become a part of my laughter I am going to let you Give me your tears to wipe I am going to let you Give me all your pain Bring about that sunshine That you bought with your presence Let that moonlight lighten All my darkened nights Let your eyes become My shining stars Let your smile be My only achievement Let your hands find mine Through the most difficult of times Let my hold be proof Of my trust in you Let the first ray of every sunshine Remind you of my promise to love you Let the last blinking star of every night Remind you that I am there Just let me love you once more Once more and forever And you become mine Maybe just for a moment I have allowed you today Just today to touch my heart I have allowed you today Just today to love me once again

Cafe Mist & Gelato Affairs

2012 is one of those years for me when I want to be very socially active.   Mind you I’m not usually this active every year. The year before Last i.e. 2010 I didn’t want to see a human face. I have the ability to hibernate on yearly basis from social life, for various reasons. So this year I decided to have a reunion of the old office where I worked. Now there I worked with more than 100 people over the course of 5 years, obviously I made some really good friends and some people I just outright hate, I’m sure they know who they are. So having said that I put aside my differences and invited everyone I knew to a reunion. Also when inviting I made sure I told everyone very clearly that the invitation is open to all just come bring your friends, family whoever, just come we’ll sit down together catch up on the latest, reminisce about the past, enjoy ourselves and go back home thinking the day wasn’t so bad, However, statistically speaking out of the 50+ invitations I sent out, I ...

Bol Bhi Bol

Bol!!l ??? now!!!! You went to watch that movie now? Now when the DVD’s released as well! How slow can you be? Really does it matter when I watch the movie? I am a fan of Shoaib Mansoor and a patriot at heart of course I’ll go watch this movie on the cinema even if its released on DVD. I’d spend money to go watch it on the big screen even though I am aware that the same movie’s been downloaded on our laptop and all I have to do is watch it some weekend. But hell no! Why would I do that? I’m going to go support my economy, show my appreciation for a good movie and go spend on it! I can’t say if the movie was as much fun as the experience I had watching it. Getting up on a Sunday morning at usual office hours to head to Atrium for a 10:30 show; I know some will call me crazy and others already do but oh boy the fun of it I am not going to be able to erase that away any time soon. So rushing thru the ‘get ready in 10 minutes’ process and then driving on empty roads to reach the mall ...

The Storm

“What?!! No Mom it’s my bachelor’s party!” he groaned at his me.   But I just had to go along with him. Her son was getting married shortly and his brother and cousin and wanted to take him to the beach for a full day of some fun. I thought of changing it into a family picnic and insisted that I go along. “If it is any compensation she’ll be coming along too” I told him.   “You mean Maria?” he asked unbelieving “Yeah! And her mother too” I added And I wanted to invite his best friend from childhood Anna along as she was sensible enough to control any sort of situation.   It was a short trip to the beach. The drive there was a little stuffed as we were kind of squashed in.   We had more people than space in the car but then that’s what stays in the head after the end of the picnic. Anna is a sweet person she lived with us like family for a very long time. Her mother had passed away when Anna was very young so she took on the responsibilities of home and eventuall...

Thunder Lightening and the End of the world!

She was in the kitchen and her mother had just come to ask her to do something, her mom said something and went back to the bedroom. Just as her mom walked out of the kitchen, she heard thunder and turned her head to look out the window… She saw an unbelievable sight, thunder clouds were as low as her second floor window and far into the horizon she could see the sun shining, but the clouds were talking over really fast and they were rumbling and screaming and there was lightening. The darkness was talking over She turned around and called after her mother ‘Ma!’ she was frightened, she wanted to be with her mother, tell her there’s nothing to worry about and to hear the same! But as she walked towards the door she heard the biggest rumble and turned around to look back at the clouds and she saw it began to rain but when she looked closely it wasn’t water they were icicles. The angry, dark clouds were showering icicles and as she stood mesmerized by the enormity of the situation, eve...

Angels – In Disguise

Children are such a beauty to look at, they’re soft hands, cute feet, chubby cheeks, angelic chuckle are all such an invitation for you to hug them really tight and kiss them crazy. But as these tiny people grow up they become unbearable, annoying and at one point you lose your patience with them and you want to toss them out of your house (of course I don’t refer to your own kids – we’re talking about little angels that belong to others). However, these angels that belong to someone else are your devil. How often has it happened that you return home to find out that that cousin of yours is coming to dinner the next day; yeah the same cousin who’s got 3 kids and the ones that drive you crazy when they’re  there. I know there’s no need saying that you love your cousin; you guys had been partner in crime through out your childhood but as you guys grew up you decided to make your career in the corporate world while your cousin decided to get married and make an increase in populati...
