Life, As we call it

Once you are born Into this big, big world
You enter a confusing maze-
Something you need to figure out
Life, as we call it

Once upon a time
You are just a child
The next minute, an adult
With a big responsibility at hand –
Life, as we call it

One day you are free
Like a bird flying high
The next day you are pulled down
Further into complexities –
Life, as we call it

One minute you are so sure
Of what to expect next
The next minute you are thrusted
Back to square one –
Life, as we call it

One minute you are happy
Of all the wonders around you
The next minute you are pushed back
To reality that might be nasty –
Life, as we call it

Life, as we call it
Might be unfair at most times

Somehow that is what makes it exciting
Giving us the power to deal with,

Life, as we call it

Old is gold

It was about 17 and half years back, I get into a classroom filled with brats like me. I look for a friendly face but all of them are huddled in their own group. Being the new kid in the block I was sent to school all by myself. I was thrilled, of course. But small moments like not being able to see even one kid who would come up to me and introduce me to his/her friends pulled me right back to reality. Uthpala ma’am introduced to the class and finally there were a few smiles directed towards me. I still remember distinctly, how this particular girl looked at me with her rolly round eyes and flashed me a big grin. Her two pony tails were bouncing behind her ears. This is when I decided to add another special person in my life other than my little brother (parents go without saying!) – Sriya Gopalakrishnan. Although not in the same class we became the best of buddies and so did our mothers. We moved into the next building of Chinmaya further down Harrington Road we landed in the same se...

Progression vs. Regression

Common man lives in an environment that is altered and changed by him. Over the years, he has evolved, therefore having an after-effect in his surroundings. He started to change his channel of thinking and developed his milieu that suited his way of living. A society is subject to change; the main reason being, the residents are humans. Human beings are never constant. Their basic needs and necessities keep altering as they evolve.

This was not how man was going to achieve his goals in life: “keeping nature in mind!” Instead, he decided to sabotage the vivacity of nature and her components and keep himself happy. Climate, like humans is subject to chang...
