Do we or Dont we!


While in a meeting at work, i curled my toes,
as i felt the cold sandy water 
on my feet....

the vision of my son at the beach
and his hands twined in mine,

his yowl of laughter
at the tides splashing him and i, 
made me feel good in my heart,

We need vacations that linger with us,

We need people that stay with us, 

We need flavors that jog our lanes,

We need fragrances that revive us,

We need  recollections that crowd us,

We need love that bleeds us,

We need the imagination to make faces out of clouds, 
i try to teach T how to, 
I dont miss the vacation, 
because it left me with more....

a vision in the sheerness....
On my PL.....Jab jab 

Do you agree

Something got me thinking, maybe the fire drill at work, and all of us standing out there in the drizzle, cold air, i was mentally jotting down, who are the people with real jobs....

Half and Half

 A friend that other day told me how she listens to some songs and cant relate to it, she just misses the whole point, she beamed, ha! i smiled, i wished i felt that way, there are emotions of varying depths that I cant seem to escape, they come, they go, they stay. This morning, when i came across this secret, i felt for the person who sent it, i know what she means, its a hole that gapes at you, it's a blessing, its a curse, its a connection, that very few have or dare to accept it. Like that song in Janbaaz..."har kissi ko nahi milta". I wish you feel like a complete person soon. 

 Sometimes when i read these secrets, i feel like there is one person or few with shared life experiences out there, though you have never met them and perhaps live across oceans, there's that familiarities in your life that brings you together. 

I use to feel this way, cant say i still do, i dont, but it seemed familiar. You'll grow out of it, we all are intellectuals in our own rights. 

Saw a movie this afternoon, the suburban girl says "a girl learns to grow up when she loses her father, and she lets go of her archie". A archie, a proverbial archie!! 

Finally, my kindle will be here soon, i'll share.
