U-TURN

"Where should I go, where should I go"
asked the farmer's son,
"I want to earn, i want to earn",
He said when he reached eleven.
"I want to go where the earth meets the sun",
His eyes were sparkling with ambition.

"Before you go, there is lot to learn,
life is not bed of roses, it is not always fun.
You can go when you are twenty but one"
replied the farmer
filled with experience to shower.



"Tomorrow is your birthday, Dear son,
And I free you from all your obligation,
But before going remember this one,
Always walk and never run,
because you may lose your direction"

"What does it matter , if i walk or i run,
For Life always has an option of U-TURN.
So even if i loose my direction,
I can again start from square one"
There the son goes with this thought in his mind,
Life is very generous, Life is very kind.

Beyond the ocean, lays his destination,
for that is the point where the earth meets the sun.
So he became the captain of a ship
and was ready to take his life's first trip.


"Always use the compass to find the direction,
and only then take your decision
in which way to steer the motion"
were the words of advice from his senior,
when he was about to encounter his future.

"Being a captain of ship is real fun
as you can decide the direction and steer the motion
and for a captain there are no rules and regulation
and even if we are lost,
I will tell them it was mechanical fault'
the son had made up his mind,
which way to go he will only decide.

"Sir, we are going the wrong way"
said the junior on the third day
"There they say Earth meets the Sun
and its heat can make us all burn"

"Let's try and be the first one
to reach the sun
and if that can't be done,
we shall take a u-turn"
and they continued to move in that direction.

After few days of motion,
they started showing signs of erosion.
The wind was blowing no more
and for that they had no cure.

Day after day. day after day,
they struck nor breath nor motion
as idle as painted ship
on a painted ocean.

Now after reading the story of farmer's son,
can you come up with any conclusion
and answer a simple question.

IS THERE ALWAYS AN OPTION OF U-TURN???

EVEN SUFFERINGS HAVE AN ENDING

With the bird singing and sun rising, I was engrossed in deep thinking, What will this festival of diwali bring. will the festival of light curb the darkness and end my suffering. Even a single moment is enough to make life devastating. It was memories from the past that my mind was nourishing Ah! It was one fine morning, when I was in my office and she gave me a ring, telling me that she was expecting. there was happiness on our door knocking in the form of angel with a wing That day she seemed like a queen and i the invincible king. But all happy things have an ending, She was lying in front of me and her hands were waving "Take care of our daughter" she said to me before going I was yearning, She was leaving I felt helpless seeing her dying In my lap was my daughter with her eyes asking, What happened to mother , why is she sleeping, 'wake up mother, i will always do what you say", she went to her grovelling and there i was standing with my eyes crying and my hear...

once a withering tree is now a blossoming flower :-)

Everyone was oblivious of the fact that i was kind of dead They just thought it to be another morning where i woke up from my bed, None were aware of the fact it was just a body which was lifeless As if a mannequin wrapped in a beautiful dress Even When you came it was still the same. At first i could feel some sensation, But it was proving to be just vexation Somewhere between hope and fear lied my anticipation There was tussle between the two, Whoever wins the battle will get you. In the end it was hope that stood victorious Dancing with joy was a body that once stood lifeless Once a withering tree is now a blossoming flower :-) All because of the love and care that you shower...
