Captivating Us

If your time flies

Then let me be the wall to which the clock clings

If your life is an open book

Let me be the page of contents that highlights the stories 

Welcome Home

Teary Eyes,
Locking lips,
Clasping hands,
Twirling legs,
Uniting Souls

Should I say
Welcome Home?
Though i have always said Hurry (Hari) Home(Om),
But hush, when do you listen?

So, that was about me.

 I would like to know about you.  

I Heart You

Hearts click
Brain Bubble: How about click hearts?

                                                                                                                                             
Nature's way of saying  I Heart You.

I guess, I figured what "Love is in the Air" means now :P

 So, love is in the air?

Brain Bubble: Love is where you find it.

Don't they say "Home is where the Heart is"  :P

Just Listen

Recently, I happened to be suffocated in a conversation, for it was all talking and no listening. This incident reminded me of the adage:

“You have been given two ears and one mouth for a reason.”

Truth is bitter but being silent to those bitter things does not mean what is being said is true. It takes patience to understand the silence.

When you turn patient, probably you would listen to the words which you took for silence.

I found this note on listening from a book i was reading. 

When I ask you to listen to me

And you start giving advice to me

You are not doing what I have asked.

When I ask you to listen to me

And you begin to tell me why

I should not feel that way

You are trampling on my feelings

When I ask you to listen to me

And you feel you have to do something

To solve my problem

You have failed me.

Strange as that may seem.

Listen! All I ask is that you  Listen.

Don’t talk or do-just Listen

Advice is cheap;

And I can do by myself, I am not helpless.

When you do something that I can do

Or need to do for myself

You contribute to my fear and inadequacy.

But when you accept

That I feel what I feel,

No matter how irrational,

Then I can stop trying to convince

You and get about this business

Of understanding what’s behind the irrational feeling.

And when that’s clear, the answers are obvious and

I would not need advice.

Irrational feelings make sense when

We understand what’s behind them.

Perhaps that’s why prayers works for some people-

Because God is mute,

And he does not give advice or try to fix things.

God just listens and lets you work out things for yourself.

So please listen, and just hear me.

And if you want to talk, wait a minute

For you turn and I will listen to you.
