Festivals...[Ganesh Chaturthi...]

[Ganesh Chaturthi...]

Left feeling good, tomorrow is holiday..driving back on my flying craft (bike)..stuck in traffic..
Funny, today the traffic jam was not so irritating but a game for me to reach my destination(home)...remembered listening to raabta in low volume and whizzing through the traffic....

Passing by small busy market on my way back home..all busy crowded.. colourful light hung around..vendor selling bring flowers for the festival, the chaos of crowd did not seem noisy to me today. Excitement, celebration in air surrounded and enveloped me...loudspeakers with random songs played..all sudden nagging thought of noise pollution disappeared for that moment.

The street across had its impression in my mind...

Dark pitch nigh, little glow of yellow light peeping from small cart wheel shops.
Flowers in a mix of yellow,orange,green,white and pink in garland form hung, swinging with gentle breeze.
The sweet scent of the incense stick and the flowers in the air.
Bright warm smiles around ...kid holding on to older ones exploring around with excitement in their eyes.
Bright coloured statues of god Ganesha of all size and designs possible on display ..waiting to be taken home.
Colorful balloon, a celebration around  to take home god Ganesha and worship.
..so much of hustle- bustle ..yet so much of peace ..the breeze is cold, yet warmth in air...

Festivals in the world always symbolizes togetherness, happiness, a shift from normal routine to celebrate, what ever the reason may be but it has a magic and charm of its own.

Opportunity (or) Change


Opportunity ....

        A word everyone chases, that is available in everyone's dictionary.That bring hopes to keep going on..to achieve something.
An identity in this world, a meaning to life , a goal to living, something to look forward to ..

But have you thought about 'Change'...
What is a Change? ..well not like changing your style or make over.. that is not what i intend here...

[On giving a thought, I realised....]

Opportunity and Change goes hand in hand, they have a strong relation and an unseen bonding.
Change is like opportunity in disguise. 
But are we ready for a change. Are we ready to get out of our comfort zone?
Fear creeps in when you are unsure of what will happen on accepting a change.

Fear comes in when you look back.Opportunity it is when you look ahead.

[Weird  Fear, Opportunity and Change has a deep relationship]

Simple for a Change, an Opportunity, Fear creeps in..making it complex to accept Change, an Opportunity.

I agree it so easy to say.. to get out of comfort zone we fear of  Risking..

[Wahoo! new entry  Risk  brings in Fear, that does not allow us to Change to open up to Opportunity]

Life seems to simple but yet to complex..  to Change overcome Fear, face the Risk  and you have Opportunity ahead of you...and you would be ready..
Learning is there every step every breath you take..which will help you go ahead in life...

Beyond.......

Out there, lies mysteries 

Unknown, unsaid.... 

Life dwells, we cannot see any. 

Unknown, yet known 

Lost in our own small world, which looks huge to us... 

  

Amoebic we are... 

Yet we fight for fame, name and glory... 

Instead of being one... 

We divide, among our self, 

Within fine lines of country and race. 

  

With pride of being superior, smarter, 

Hurt the weaker creatures...

Foolish we are… How ignorant we are... 

  

A smile crosses...

We don’t see things as they are,  

We see them as we are… 

  

Aghast, with thought of what beyond lies… 

Mind goes blank, eyes cannot believe... 

Skips a heartbeat…speechless, with every sight 

Of what lies beyond, out there in space…
