That Moment

When I don’t keep my mind in check it wonders to that moment… that moment when I would meet you after so many years. That moment when I would lay my eyes on you and all those memories will rush back and I would once again be captivated by you.

That moment when not expecting to see you across the room; our eyes meet and in that spark the entire room seems to stand still.  I rush towards you and embrace you, like I have never hugged any one before. In that embrace a thousand words are spoken.

A tear rolls down my eye that says I missed you. I wish we never parted. A smile that says I know you are happy yet we would have been happier together and not apart.

Shall I kiss you like I use to before, and you take me in your arms like there is no tomorrow and forget about everything else.

I imagine all this when I let my mind wonder unchecked. I imagine it when I see someone that reminds me of you. Your crooked nose and your evil smile. You held my heart when you spoke to me and flashed your teeth.

I wonder would I be able to do this all if we ever meet. I am shy and you know it and yet I can imagine all this and I am sure would never be able to say it or even do any of it. the moment will pass, I am sure when no one is watching I am sure I can close my eyes and let my mind wonder of into that special place where you and I can b together with no one to check and no one to notice that you and I belong to each other no matter what the time or the era and even the situation is.

Unabashed and imaginatively yours….

Happy New Year

Happy New Year

Its 2^nd of January and to be frank, this year has been a bit different. I wasn’t excited about the New Year as I usually am. I did not make any resolutions either. Why???

Well for starters this whole hoopla about the New Year is for those who need another reason to drink and party and # their outings on social networking sites. Who cares which club you went and what glass of wine you are holding. After a while all things do become old and the excitement of the New Year dies down.

Your New Year resolutions are not kept beyond the first week of January. Why not take hold of the resolutions kept at the end of the year when we are bidding adieu to the year gone. All the mistakes that have been committed, all the promises that were broken to oneself- all of them should be taken into account.

What is New Year? Another year gone by… why can’t we see what we have accomplished and set our eyes on something more we can achieve.  Let your planning be for everyday and make room for error in judgment and other things that are not in your hands.

Make room for not the images on Facebook or Instagram but for what you will carry in your heart. All the time spent with your loved ones. All the new things that you have learnt, all the books you read and all the dreams you fulfilled... Celebrate that and plan for more such achievements and celebrations….
