You learn: After a while

There are some poems which summarizes life in simple yet so effective way. This is one of those.

After a While by Veronica A. Shoffstall

Cormorants

Can you see them? Total of 8. Yes, they are duck-like black Cormorants. They can swim, they can fly. Every evening when we go for a walk by a Seepz lake, we see them playing. Some sitting quietly on the shore with their wings spread and enjoying sunshine. I can watch them playing for hours. It's difficult to capture them as you never know from which part of the water they will pop out. Salute to planet earth. 

Bright and blooming

Beautiful  pink plant shining as bright as it ever could. When I first saw them from far, I couldn't believe they were original. But when I went near, I couldn't help but touch them. A worth capturing. :)

Love, Life and Loneliness

There comes a time in everyone’s life when all that we crave for is love. It can be either just after a break up or when one is not being loved truly by anyone still. This feeling makes us restless. You chum up with everyone you meet on the way. Expectations are at their pinnacle. You care for every single person you meet, you try to make them your best friends sharing your personal life but in reality you also want that person to do the same (yes, that’s expectation again). This is the time when you are always surrounded by a risk of settling for someone less deserving just because of restlessness of being in a relationship. No, here I am not talking about only love, it could only be for sympathy or may be because you also want attention, and there is nothing wrong in that. It’s in our nature that we all need attention from people around us. And this is the only reason why most of the social networking sites are so popular. We all are living a happy life in all terms. Some have good family life, some are financially strong, some have charismatic looks and some have it all but still only one thing is absent – that is love, that special person who will love us back in the same way we love them. Love in both ways doesn't allow us to be happy in life. I've seen people getting enough love but not satisfied just because their expectation levels are way too high and there are some who receives nothing. Someone has rightly said, “It always feels good when we are at receiving side.”

                                                   So, what is the conclusion of all this? Can we ever get over these expectations? Or this so called feeling of being loved in return? Are there people like us who feel the same for us? Is there anyone who craves to talk to me the same way I crave to talk with others? Why do we crib always about being lonely and not having friends? Why can’t we just happy with ourselves? The answer is simple – chuck all the expectations and try to seize this moment. Don’t be restless to talk or even take a mobile number when a new person enters in your life. Let them reveal themselves. Give it time. Trust can never be gained, it’s won. And all you need for that is patience. Trying to know more and more in such a little amount of time will end up making you lonelier. The key is to be happy (yes without showing them that you want them so badly). The day you learn to control your sentiments and your emotions is the day you actually start living a happy life and trust me there is no particular age to make this happen. You can start it now, at this very moment. Loving yourself the way you are is always easier than changing yourself into someone else so that they love you. In the end all we do is comfort our hearts. I believe love will happen one day or it will not happen at all. Decide to enjoy loneliness and you will never feel lonely again in your own company. Go for a movie alone. Do shopping. Take a ride on a new way. Do sky diving. Earn and spend it on yourself. You know what? You will eventually end up making friends in the course of all these activities. That’s how life is. It’s a beautiful struggle. Effortless relationships are always more interesting than the forceful one’s. Your efforts may impress someone and bring them in your arms but one day all would look fake. If you’re the way you are, you will always attract more people. I’d rather say more correct people.

The only reason behind this article is to motivate myself. If I won’t, who else will?

Hope it helps you too. Cheers to loneliness, Cheers to life. :)

A beautiful love letter

It could not have been expressed in a better way. Will you be my coffee cup? :)

Golden sky and a sunset

Yes, this was one of the most beautiful evenings I've seen. First, it was my first evening at new place. Sitting by the window, listening to music and clicking the setting sun. What could have been better than looking at an open grassland, birds flying home and crickets preparing for the night.

Nothing can ever be compared to beauty of mother earth!!

A Haunted Tree?

Leafless but still beautiful. It's all about having something unique. No beauty is ever required to attract someone's attention :)

Roads Roads Roads (Kasara Ghat)

These were clicked on my way from Nasik to Mumbai through ghats' of Kasara. So picturesque, So beautiful. Roads to heaven :)

Weird but Beautiful

I don't know what you call them. Anything interesting must be clicked and shared :)

As fresh as first rain

Yet another spectacular work by Mother Earth. Whenever I go for a walk at lake side, I couldn't help myself clicking few unforgettable pics.. This is one them. So beautiful, So fresh :)

No Mud, No Lotus

As they say without difficulties life would not bloom like without mud there will not be any lotus :)

A pic to inspire at Seepz Lake :)

Cute Forgetful Squirrel - Thank You :)

Since the time I've read this article in news paper, I've started thanking this cute little gift of God called "Squirrel". It actually makes you feel really good.
 
Before few years, a survey was taken and a question was asked to many people around the world:

"How would it affect your life if "Squirrels" disappears from the mother earth?"

95% of people said, "so what, it would be very sad to know but our life would go on.. Many endangered species have disappeared from the earth till now and we don't see any adverse effect on our day to day life.."
 
But they were shocked after knowing the truth, the story behind forgetfulness of squirrels goes like this.. It will actually make you realize that how someone's inability could be a blessing for all of us..
 

For squirrels, a little forgetfulness can turn into a lot of trees. Every year in autumn, squirrels "squirrel away" numerous nuts. It is estimated that each gray (ground) squirrel buries at least 1,000 nuts every fall, possibly as many as 10,000 nuts in one season. The squirrels can bury the nuts several inches deep. They locate their buried nuts by smell, and are able to find nuts buried under a foot or more of snow. But they can forget. It is estimated that millions of trees in the world are accidentally planted by squirrels that bury nuts and then forget where they hid them. And believe me or not, 75% of trees on our mother earth is because of this forgetful nature. So shouldn't we grateful to them? Imagine your life without squirrels. What about our everyday breathing? What about Global Warming? What about rain? What about those shades in scorching summer afternoons?
 
I thank them every time I see them and you know what? when I do that I actually see them smiling back at me with that cute little adoring face..
 
Be grateful to every single creature on this earth, they all are needed to complete this cycle called "Life" :)

Aging Parents

This has made me smile.. Beautiful words expressing best feelings.. :)

Poem that sets you free

Found this poem on internet. Couldn't resist sharing it with you all.. It has got wonderful meaning :)

High and Handsome

Mumbai at it's best. This was clicked from parking slot in the backyards of Inorbit Mall, Malad. Blue sky decorated by monsoon clouds made these buildings look spectacular :)

Moonmelon

How many of you know about this Moonmelon? This is amazing.

This is a Moonmelon, scientifically knows as "asidus".This fruit grows in some parts of Japan, and is known for its vibrant blue color. What you probably don’t know about this fruit is that it can switch flavors after you eat it. Everything sour will taste sweet, everything salty will taste bitter, and it gives water a strong orange-like taste. It's also very expensive...costing about ￥16000 JPY (which is about 200 dollars)

Yellow flower blooms

On a random evening, taken at Seepz Lake, Andheri .. Yellow evening sun and yellow flowers befriended by reflection from lake water made it look beautiful.. Couldn't help but capturing it :)

For all those born in 80's

This really makes sense !! Lucky WE :)

 

 

Sky, Blue Sky

This was a day in Mumbai when sky was painted with bright blue color. Clouds have added more beauty. Pre monsoon clouds, heavy wind and mild but sunny afternoon, a perfect time to click a pic :)
