As your thoughts comes to my mind,
My eyes get filled with tears,
I wish you were here,
But,destiny has chosen something else for me…
The last stanza of the first poem I wrote "Mommy&Me"in my very first blog!Thats how I began my blogging journey.
When I resumed blogging after a long period of hibernation,I recommenced with another poem “Notes To My Mama”The concluding verses were…
When the pain of labour embraced me
Your memories were the balm
But no balm can heal
The wound of a motherless child
Time flies high
World changes..
But my love for you is eternal…
Yesterday,I hummed those verses …and I had a reason to do so…I received a cheque from Tehelka(quite unexpected!) amounting to 2500/- as contributor’s payment(For my contribution to Personal History Column)My first reward in life!While opening the cover,I remembered the dolorific past! And …I smiled… a gesture of gratitude to all the bitter memories…rather..I thanked my thankless past!

Congratulations on that cheque, u sure have created a Tehelka in ur self belief, i'm sure :)
i guess Senorita can treat us with an Italian chocolate cake (the original name is toooo Italian), trust me its yummmmmm:):)
@Sen Thankss..
Vins...Glad to see that you are back!I really missed you dear...
scrawlerrrrrrrrrr, i'm glad to be back:):)
talking abt 'missing me', i feel 'missing' is an act relative to oneself..u miss me is actually u missing a part of urself..since i am that part which u miss in urself..since that missing part completes u...since i'm back n how:):)
vins, are you poking me to write another philosophical post?? ;-)
for an argument, yes missing is relative to one self.. but how is it related?
**u miss me is actually u missing a part of urself
really? comfort is something which we get from our very surroundings. The micro air around us [whatever it is called - i forgot the name :-(] gives us warmth and love. people like you make that air around me warm and when i say i miss you, i miss that warmth around me. i definitely dont feel incomplete, but yes, there is sure a difference in the chemical composition around!
tell me, when u were away did ya miss us? if yes, did ya feel incomplete.. if no, give me ur address, i wanna make sure no security could help you :-)
just for funnn...philosophy debates with u leaves one enlightened!!
look at the sentence in its entirety : u miss me is actually u missing a part of urself..since i am that part which u miss in urself
yes, i did miss n felt incomplete..somewhere, i wanted to read all u guys posts and share ur life..in that i become a part of ur lives!! that uneasiness is what i call 'incompleteness'
is it not that u guys lives have become intermingled with mine??
is it not that we are bonded for some reason given the trillions of other surfers v could have met???
over to u Saar..
