If I could change the past

Can I change my past

 If only we could change the past and start all over again !

In a heart full of unmet desires, the craving dies only when our breath stops !

All those decisions that we took and could not fulfil our desires;

Things that we would not have said to save hearts from breaking, if only those words could be recalled !

The things that we could have done differently for success !

If only we had not lost the ones who we loved the most !

If only we were not betrayed by someone who we trusted so much !

 These “ifs” are infinite !

What is new about the NEW YEAR anyway, it is just another day in the calendar but we make it special as if we are welcoming a new spring bloom or a new born baby. Why is NEW so fascinating?

These “Ifs” …………………………. Desperately need HOPE !

NEW is HOPE !

I Wish that NEW year 2022 changes all your “Ifs” forever………………. For good.

I die to live !

  I saw his photo on the social media  among the dead, the cruel pandemic had snatched him away from us for ever. His life had just begun, he was supposed to live for many more years. After all, hardly anyone dies at that age. He was just perfect, a beautiful family, good job, superior intellect  loads of creative work done .   I try to control my life's events and plan for future to make it safe and live able. Yet, I lose control when un planned situations arrive un-invited. This is the hide and seek of life. For some life is picture perfect whereas for others nothing works. We are in search of answers to such questions constantly wondering what is the mechanism of life, can we create a rule book and just follow it? Life would be simpler, but life continues to be an enigma. It is interesting that I did not choose to be born but once my journey began, this life which was not my choice became so much just mine that I am dying to live. Everyday life tests me, I go through pain and

Why hermits are happy ?

Why are hermits happy ? They don't wear trendy footwear, expensive watches or drive big cars. They do not have the privilege of social bonds , affection from family and friends. While I am writing, I am wondering what is the basis of my question ! Why should they not be happy? Who determined  what must make us happy or unhappy ? Social construct , is it?  It is  formed over centuries which leads us to believe what we believe in . It exists because humans acknowledge its existence whereas it may not  exist if  seen objectively. If one is unhappy, it is  because S/he got things contrary to this construct. Tough is to break free from it and create a new one. To break free means to rebuild the frame that we live in, the frame which defines love, hatred, desirable, undesirable, success, failure and so on. Freeing up the mind from pre existing and filling it up with new definitions, This is creativity ! Can we  just flip this construct ? and see the magic unfold.

Final destination

On my birthday, I take a moment and look back and I see a girl  who used to be  quite aspirational and ambitious, who tried to plan everything in advance , all her anticipated successes and joys, based on her limited knowledge about happiness and success. She went about achieving her planned success with great energy, worked hard and displayed exemplary will power. She made choices which she thought led her towards her planned goal of happiness in personal and professional life. She was indeed quite picky about her choices and she felt totally in charge of her life. Fifty years hence, I seem to have reached some unknown destination.  It seems no planning worked. So many surprises in life, never ever imagined situations swipe away the current state like a storm takes away with it everything that is there on the sea shore. Alas, I can’t go back in time and change my choices. Fear cripples us. The fear of where will my livelihood come from? Will I have food, home, health, money in the
