Life?!!!!!

Sometimes I sit & think ,
Why is there life?,
What is the purpose of it?
Are we just born to die?
Do all our actions just take us one step closer to death?
Is this the purpose of life - to die?
................................................................................................................................

Life is when you help an old lady cross the road.
Life is when you give water to a complete stranger.
It is when you bring home a little puppy crying on the road.
Life is in those peals of laughter that friends share.
It is in putting cake on your friends faces.
It is in those words of concern of your parents.
It is when you feel the pain of others.
It is when you remember the good times you've had.
It is when you remember the difficult times &how help came from unknown quarters.


It is in the small things
those moments of joy, happiness ,inspiration that show us the way when we are down& stay on with us forever.

It is in these moments that life is lived.
It is in these moments that life is loved.
It is in these moments that life is remembered.
It is in these moments that life is celeberated.

Progress!

Profound title! but there is nothing profound about this article .It just deals with mundane aspects of our life, no economic theories on how much should a person consume in a year , why is there inflation & the likes, it just looks at stuff which is close to me.

Indeed we are making progress , there are malls , shopping complexes coming up everywhere. But at what cost- destroying forests to build more malls as if we dont have enough of them already what with one sprouting up in every nook & cranny of every street , destroying natural bird sanctuaries to build flyovers(so long birdies ,it was nice knowing you).But wait there is hope for them. With the world shrinking day by day maybe they wont have to migrate , an email would suffice (yup that must have been the reason for................................................), cutting down trees which provide shelter to innumerable species of birds & insects to make a playing field for a game that no one plays(amazing).
Out of all this, one thing is more than obvious got to learn how to inhale , exhale clothes , shoes etc , CO2 instead of O2 because the rate at which we are progressing it wont be long before when there are cokroaches ruling the world.

Escape from reality

Am off , am off to a place where impossible happens
Where there is no joy , there is no pain
Only Bliss.
Where there are no friends , there are no enemies
everyone is but a reflection of you.
Into that sweet world where dreams come true.
am off .
Half death or should I just call it sleep.

Who am I?

Who am I?
Am I x or am I y?
Am I the truth or am I a lie?

am I the mask?
or the person behind the mask?
Is there a person behind the mask?
or
just another mask?

These are just some of the questions that I want to ask.
can I rely on you to give me an answer
before I say goodbye.
