    I realized something thats changed deeply about me. I used to be able to look at the bright side of things.. well, not in that exact sense, but I never lost hope. The part of me that kept faith in 'things will get better' seems to exist with great skepticism now.

    When did this happen to me? Since when did I grow so weary that I choose to believe that the worst will always happen? Am I really that pessimistic now? Its like this: there's a part of me that hopes, but there's a new part of me that refuses to believe in that hope... because I'm so terrified its all a farce. When something good happens, it takes me so much by surprise that I get completely overwhelmed. And once the relief floods through my system and I settle down, I start to think that it wasn't such a good thing after all. Its like I'm terrified to believe that things can somehow fix themselves, that good things can happen, that wishes can come true.

    Is this who I was supposed to be? Is this what the past few months were supposed to have taught me?

    I just want to believe. Please give me that ability to believe again.

    Happy Dassehra!

    When you don't expect things to happen, they take you by surprise. I think this was a panic attack, in a way. I was so unprepared that it suddenly seemed like the world was falling apart. It took me awhile to calm down and realize that this was, in fact, a good thing.

    When it comes right down to it, the key is to not expect anything. Life is so much simpler that way. Live each day for what it is, and take joy in the little things that you see, in the nuances of everyday life, in those small and unexpected little things.

    I was losing faith in my beliefs. But someone up there gave it back to me. In the tiniest little form.. but I know there's a karmic system out there. I don't believe in afterlives, so I know we're all getting whats coming in this one life.

    Well, its about time my karmic circle began its cycle. I will have faith, and I will be good. I give you my word. :)

    False Impressions

    They're what we convince ourselves to be the truth. I don't know what it is about life, but when something unfair happens to us, and we're the only one's who can see it, well, maybe we just want to believe there's a system of justice out there that will fix everything. But thats not always true.

    I was reading an old blog entry wherein was so happy that things were back to normal. It was a two line entry, but it had summed up what i felt then so well. Well, it was all a false impression. Turns out nothing had fixed itself at all. Maybe I had just wanted to believe it so badly, that I saw it as being a happy ending.

    So when it comes right down to it, fair or unfair, just or unjust, heartbreaking or not, things will still happen. Maybe I'm wrong to question it all. When you know there are never any answers.

    Its been a bad year. Well, maybe bad is a strong word, there are good things that happened.. but the bad part has been so blatantly in my face that I can't help but remember it. I do appreciate the good parts and the friends, but its strange.. mainly because I don't know where this is going anymore. I do want this year to end, though. Going back home seems more and more important lately. I really want to be there. I don't know how it will help, or if it will, even. But I do know that I need to get away. From here. To home.

    I suppose there will always be a small part of me that hopes, a small part of me that always feels bad. I didn't do anything so wrong to deserve this end, but then again, who knows? Who am I to pass judgement on these things?

    I really am a vulnerable little girl. I haven't grown up at all.

    Love Aaj Kal (Cd)

    Changing times..

    I've always firmly believed that everything happens for a reason. While this is a wonderful belief to hold onto, I've begun to wonder if it is, indeed true. I read somewhere today that perhaps, there really is no reason for anything that happens.. things just happen by coincidence.

    Is this really true? Is life not a series of interconnected events? I've grown up believing that one thing i've done, one situation i've been in, has led to the next and so on. And it makes perfect sense in my head. I have a flowchart, almost.. leading from incident A to incident Z. So am i wrong? Is it all really one big coincidence?

    Maybe there is some element of truth to it after all. Perhaps things do happen irrespective of what we've been through before. Maybe it really is more along the lines of, well, if its meant to happen, it will, taking whichever path it may choose. Its such a simple thought, but it changes so much. I've spent many a years looking for reasons to understand why something played out the way it did. Maybe I need to stop looking for reason.

    Perhaps, sometimes, we just need to go with the flow.

    Some situations still make me feel eerily like everything is linked after all. There are some things i've been struggling to understand since a long time now, and lately, the way things have been happening, I can feel myself reacting the exact same way that someone I know did with me. Back then, when it happened to me, it made no sense whatsoever. But now, it all seems like it was inevitable.

    Confusing post. I wonder if i'll get what I was trying to say when I read this some years down the line. It feels so right to quote a few lines from this song i'm listening to:

    Kyun koi paas hai
    Door hai Kyun koi
    Jaane Na koi yahan pe

    Aa Raha paas ya door mein ja raha
    Janu na mein hoon kahan pe

    Yeh dooriyan
    In raahon ki dooriyan
    Nigahon ki dooriyan
    Hum rahon ki dooriyan
    Fanah ho sabhi dooriyan

  • I take it back. There are some things that are really and truly unfair. Things no one can change. They just happen. And while you can blame yourself for them forever, they won't change.

    I just wish there was an easier way to deal with it all.

    Away We Go

    Away We Go

    I thought this was a wonderful movie. Maybe its just the state of mind I was in when I was watching it, maybe its just the romantic in me, maybe its just because I believe there's a thing such as true love out there.. or maybe its all of the above. But I loved the movie.

    It seems strangely fitting, the title. Not just for the movie, just to my life. Away We Go. Except there really isn't a 'we'. Its just me. But the 'we' fits perfectly. I don't feel alone. I have someone looking out for me, someone teaching me how to deal with all of it. And He's wonderful. He brings you to it, and He leads you through it. I just had to look for the path.

    And so, away we go. There are so many changes I've seen along the way, so many that I'm introducing into my life, and so many lessons I'm learning along the way. Yes, there are feelings that might never go away, thoughts that will still come up every few days and make me cringe with the pain, places and gestures and mannerisms that will make my lips curve into a smile only to realize that I may not see them anymore; there is a part of me that will surface and make me feel like I was wrong to close my eyes and let myself be led away blindly.

    But despite all these things, Away We Will Go. Suddenly, it seems wrong that on the one hand, I believe that meaning well, having faith never goes unrewarded.. while on the other hand I make no effort to get myself on my feet. Its just wrong. You can't just have faith and sit around waiting for things to happen, for a miracle to come and sweep you off your feet. You've got to do what you can to keep yourself happy.

    Because you enjoy life, and miss someone. Its not wrong, it doesn't make the love we have any less than it was. If anything, it makes it so much stronger. Simply because you took that one step towards putting a smile on your face. Then its all right to hope, to have faith.

    So then, away we go.



    Well I have been searching all of my days
    All of my days
    Many a road, you know
    I’ve been walking on
    All of my days
    And I’ve been trying to find
    What’s been in my mind
    As the days keep turning into night

    Well I have been quietly standing in the shade
    Watch the sky breaking on the promise that we made
    All of this rain
    And I’ve been trying to find
    What’s been in my mind
    As the days keep turning into night

    Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near
    All of my days
    I cried aloud
    I shook my hands
    What am I doing here
    All of these days
    For I look around me
    And my eyes confound me
    And it’s just too bright
    As the days keep turning into night

    Now I see clearly
    It’s you I’m looking for
    All of my days
    Soon I’ll smile
    I know I’ll feel this loneliness no more
    All of my days
    For I look around me
    And it seems He found me
    And it’s coming into sight
    As the days keep turning into night
    As the days keep turning into night
    And even breathing feels all right
    Yes, even breathing feels all right
    Now even breathing feels all right
    It’s even breathing
    Feels all right
