With Love

This is a letter to one of the most beautiful aspect in my life which is very close to my heart.............
...My BLOG. However ridiculous it might seem I need to confess I am in love with it and I have no qualms admitting it.

My Dearest,

Most of the beautiful things in life are better left unsaid and just understood by the heart. But sometimes it becomes important to pen down thoughts only for keepsakes. For me it is all the more important to let YOU know what I think of you.

8th March 2011 - The day when you came into my life has been a truly memorable moment for me. It marked the beginning of a new journey in my life.  It was as if suddenly a plethora of doors were opened for me to enter a new world.You made me realise I could make a difference with my words. You helped me touch hearts and make someone smile through my words. You made me see a very different world which was full of endless possibilities. On this journey you also introduced me to some wonderful fellow bloggers who taught and inspired me through their words.Most importantly you gave me a place where I could just be "ME". No fear of being ridiculed upon, laughed at or be the target of opinions.

There have been times when I have experimented with you crazily [ to the extent of almost losing you once !!GULP!!] but you have always borne with me patiently and entertained all my whims and fancies with a smile.Owning to many things at times I am unable to give you proper time and attention but you have always welcomed me with a warm hug making my guilt runaway.

Just when I am at loss of words; this one's for YOU:

HUGSSSSSSSS [ Image Source : Google Images]

I can't promise there won't be things better in future for me but I can definitely promise ~ You will always be special as you are the one with whom I took the first baby steps towards this.This is the just the beginning and in a typical Robert Frost style ' There are miles to go before we sleep.' You are and will always be the most beautiful aspect of my life.

मेरी जिंदगी का सबसे बड़ा ख्वाब और सबसे बड़ी हकीकत हो तुम.

Hoping this bond grows stronger with the passage of time where I evolve more as a person along with you. I wish we touch more hearts, make difference and spread more smiles all across.

Love

XOXOXO

P.S : I know this was long due and would have been apt on your 1st birthday but better late than never as today you are just a month over a year old.

Diary of a Lost Wanderer - Lost & Found

Dear Diary, I fell in love with Mumbai when I first visited it in 1995. Bombay, as it was then known, fascinated me since then.  If you ask me what made me fall in love with this city, I perhaps cannot explain. It wasn't that I was seeing the sea for the first time. It wasn't even the biggest city I had been to till then. Still, there was something so magical about this place. The trip was a short one lasting less than a week but this city now had my heart. Years later, I arrived here all alone on my first solo trip in 2005 and fell in love all over again. I got my first job and was required to come to Mumbai frequently. The local trains, the chaos on the roads, the crowds, the humdrum, the salty smell in the air, the stale air- everything about this city was intoxicating for me.

Essay: How to mourn the loss of love?

Image Source: Unsplash.com I remember the first time I mourned the loss of love was when I was eleven.  For me, dance was love at that time. I had discovered a strange joy as I glided in and out of those movements. Every time I swirled; I could feel my heart soar. Any beat that strained to reach my ears, tempted me to move my body to its tune. I just knew I was born to dance and that is the only thing I wanted to do, all my life.  I had my reasons to believe so and a very simple one at that. It made me happy. That was a reason enough. However, my father thought otherwise. Girls from good families, do not dance. That line was enough to break all those rosy dreams of dancing on a stage. The day my brother was sent to the same dance class which was not good for me, was the day I experienced heartbreak for the first time.  That is the day I mourned the loss of my first love- Dance.

Metro Diaries: The Art of Making Love

Image Source: Unpexels (Cottonbro) “Do you know why is it called making love?” He whispered, pulling the comforter closer.  I don’t remember for how long we had been in that room, on that bed. Lying aimlessly, just feeling each other in silence. I managed to just whimper to denote my curiosity.   “Because that is the moment we create love. We are the closest we could ever be to love, in its purest form. It is sheer magic as we are naked, in every form. Mentally, physically and emotionally before that one person, we love. We know they can hurt us, as much as they want to, in the way they want to. But love gives us that power to trust them, that they won’t.”   “And here I was thinking it is a need. Something you want at that moment and you get it!”
