How a little whiff makes me smile..!!

There is a scent that tells me that you are around, that inspires me to walk ahead and put my mind to work..how a whiff of that particular scent does that might seem beyond reason but I know how it works…every cog in my mind is attuned to the sense of that scent, making equivalent visual imageries and making me smile and my heart strong knowing that it is not alone..

I think the concept behind 3 Idiots was very true...your heart seeks solace in little things, so one should keep it deluded till the time it really needs to roll up its sleeves and get to work…the experiment I did today morning very aptly puts this in perspective.. not wanting to wear my good pair of work slippers when I traversed my one hour journey to office, I put on my house slippers packing the other ones in my bag..walking to the office, there was a certain sense of happiness, the feel of those house slippers took away the heavy feeling I got when I travel every morning, and by the time I actually got to the destination and slipped into my office footwear, it really didn’t matter anymore, coz I knew, now I am here, here to work..

It is these little tiny joys that make it a little easier to stay happy…find for yourself those little joys, that make you walk that extra mile..but make your heart feel,” oh! I didn’t do much!”

This association with sounds, with smells, with touch, really amazes me…how and why, a memory is so strong in my subconscious, imprinted with such strong emotion, that a tiny stimulus can inspire me to do more, go beyond my own impression of myself?

There is a motivation behind every step you take and everything you do…u may be self motivated or may seek motivation from all that is around you..but I know, I will find favor in nature..my own little box of motivations, which will keep in afloat and happy.

Those little joys of life…

Thank you for the tiny joys,

A pleasant hug,

A knowing smile,

The ring of bells,

The dewy sunlight.

The chime of china,

That laughter surprise.

That sleepy toddler,

That silent night.

The love of a man,

That care of a child.

The singing of a bird,

That swatter of flies.

The light blowing breeze,

That coffee of mine.

The waiting lift,

That green light.

The unknown treat,

Of not waiting in line.

That uneventful day,

That calm concise.

Those flickering candles,

That romantic night.

The love in the eyes,

Of my little canine.

That comfort of a blanket,

On a snowy night.

That touch of a hand,

Wiping your eyes.

That moment of light,

That unknown delight.

That answer to a dilemma,

Wrapped up in life.

For all there is in the world to see,

I thank you lord for those little joys of life..!!

life...backwards????

LIFE...it wasnt all that easy...was it???
it took away everthing you had...things you had to offer and even things you werent ready to part with..bt had to....it gave in its cycle,.. things you never expected...or thought were not even possible.....wouldnt it be great if you could go across this life in a new a dimension....live it  backwards may be....

wish i could die first... get it out of the way. 

then live the next twenty years in an old age home...(if i'm destined a life that long...hope not...just keeping the options open)...
then get kicked out when you are too young to stay....get a gold watch, you go to work.
work for the next fourty years (sheesh...) ..hope then i'm young enough for a retirement....
get to A college..(finally...a relief).....party till you can get into a high school...shead off the work load....n you are a little kid back in those dainty little chairs of school....sketching and painting...n learning geometry....you shrink even more....now u r almost free....free from the cares of the world....

no body cares if you look at the world n you cant get any thing...or even figure out if your feet are pointing right....now you are small ..small enough so that the world rejoices when you say your first words...or take your first steps.....you fumble....you kick up a racous.....yours the world ...n you are the king.....its time to face the darkness....when you spend your last nine months floating...with no sence of anything that went by...and last...finish off as A GLEAM IN SOMEONE'S EYE!!!
