it feels just like love
but it is not
it hurts just like love
as i miss u a lot
i long like one in love
wishing the distances were short
yes it feels just like love
but it is not
i wish we had stayed longer
i wish we had spoken some more
i wish we did not have to part ways
i wish we could be together for some more days
need to meet you again
need to talk just once more
to see that look in your eyes
that makes my heart swell to core
kill the distance that separates us
bridge the difference in what we speak
i know we connect beyond this life
our ties are not that weak
i dont know your name
i dont know where you belong
doesn't matter if you married or not
still for you I sing this song
we shall meet again for sure
i shall meet your children too
i know i am not alone in this
and you too wish to see me soon
we are meant to meet again
it does sounds like a similar plot
yes...it feels just like love, i know
but let me tell you...that it is not...

article 377 - India creates history
It was a landmark day for India y'day. Finally things like sex and now gay sex is talked about in open. Finally we are becoming normal - talking about things, discussing and not do a hush hush of everything related to sex - and i had voiced my thoughts on this long ago. Now talking about gay sex is taking it a step further and I am only proud of our country today, to be able to talk and discuss the untouched subjects. "That" is what i say is normal.
In any revolution / big change there will be divided parties, for and against - it always have been, but it surely does not mean that there should not be any reform. Lets not fear that...and whom to fear - people who are making senseless talks? well y'day news channels but obviously covered this big story, here are some snippets of how absurd those who stand against it sounded...
- It is a disease - need to be cured
- It is a disease that we got from west
- Now that we make it legal it will spread
- It is unnatural
- More people will experiment now
- We dont mind-let them do what they want, just dont bring it in public
- What will we tell our children
Now i totally ignore the 1st three points mentioned - as they sound too stupid, homosexuality is no flu or infection which will spread by contacting or kissing.
About it being unnatural. Those who are saying this don't understand that it is only their 'natural' instinct which attracts to the same sex. And by that law we straight lot are unnatural for them.
People will experiment more? well i thought a forbidden fruit was the one that people went after. Anyhow what makes them feel that those who have to experiment are not experimenting already ?
They say - do it but don't bring it in open. This is the most hilarious part of it. Gay sex being legalized does not mean that all the guys and girls will now come out in open and start having sex in public...parks, malls and roads. They will have it in the privacy of their homes like they have been doing it for decades, only difference is it is nor more a crime in eyes of law.
What none of the guys who stand and shout against it understand- by bringing in this change nothing will in their lives. All it will change is the lives of the gay community. All it says is, if they are caught having sex they will not be put behind bars. That is all that changes. That is all...it is so simple.
Yes I agree on the last point where parents are saying how will we explain this to our kids. I have a very simple solution to it. If you believe in it,it is a cake walk...it is exactly how i say topic of sex should be handled in India - by talking and not hush hushing.
For so many years our society is built on a man and a woman relationship. Yes, I agree, but we are changing. So lets talk to our kids about it as normal we talk about anything else. The moment you try to hush up, hide and cover things with lie, a cloud is built on kids mind about things 'not' being normal. It is us who make it look abnormal to kids, the act is not abnormal.
How is it that a kid is ok to see 'mummy' living with 'papa', when in school he is only made to play with boys, and girls have their own thing to do. But when on growing up...boy and girl (momma & papa) are living together...kids never find 'that' abnormal right...coz it was never 'projected' as abnormal by parents. It is in our hands to make look something totally normal as abnormal for children and vice-versa ...
So let kids grow up naturally with all the facts around them, talk to them as openly as you can - with more details as they grow. It cannot go wrong.
I again say what I had said long ago - lets not hush things about sex - lets talk about it to our kids so that they dont consider it a "big deal". The moment we make it a big deal, that is when things start going wrong.

message in the bottle
i am heartbroken since yesterday, and regret the moment i picked up the book called "message in the bottle". it had been on my bookshelf for about 3 years now, and i damn the moment when y'day morning i picked it up to read ...
books, like cigarettes or adult films should come with a warning too - and this one surely should have carried one that said "not for the weak hearted" and i would not have touched it
the book is a love story with a fairytale affect....there cannot be a better romance than two people falling in love, covering time, distance, hurdles and falling truly, deeply & madly in love...nothing can be more beautiful than that...just pure love and romance...deeper than the ocean , softer than the cloud, larger than the sky...that love is beyond all limits and comprehension of a regular human mind. i experience this kind of love everyday every moment - i just close my eyes and i see him – us, in the everlasting love for one another...
what i dont like and understand is the authors wicked mind to manipulate human mind and emotions, they purposely end their book with a tragedy just to make the book work, as a tragedy remains in mind and talked about.
what they dont understand is that it breaks people like me into million pieces seeing the two in love not able to meet. i cannot see one of them lonely, longing to be together. I cannot see them separated and living a life without the other, as i'd rather die than live without the one i love...
it hurts beyond words...and just for the fun of it, the money and fame, authors end up committing the biggest crime their pen ever can...
separate the souls that were meant to be one…

i wish i were a writer
i wish i were a writer,
who could write my mind out,
without the fears of the world
not caring that i am too loud
i wish i were a writer
who could speak as my heart says
not being shy of the words
just following it's own ways
i wish i were a writer
and could write how Leonardo paints
as strokes of his color speak
my words could paint the frame
i wish i were a writer
and could write how Mozart plays
his magical fingers on the keys
could be my writing on the lanes
i wish i were a writer
who could touch your heart
you sleep with my words on mind
and wish the same, when your day starts
i wish i were a writer
who knew how to write well
so you read what my mind speak
and makes your heart swell
i wish i were a writer
that you fall in love with too
for all my words i write
i write my love, only for you
who could write my mind out,
without the fears of the world
not caring that i am too loud
i wish i were a writer
who could speak as my heart says
not being shy of the words
just following it's own ways
i wish i were a writer
and could write how Leonardo paints
as strokes of his color speak
my words could paint the frame
i wish i were a writer
and could write how Mozart plays
his magical fingers on the keys

i wish i were a writer
who could touch your heart
you sleep with my words on mind
and wish the same, when your day starts
i wish i were a writer
who knew how to write well
so you read what my mind speak
and makes your heart swell
i wish i were a writer
that you fall in love with too
for all my words i write
i write my love, only for you

Relationships are spontaneous and not deliberate...
I don’t know if it works for all, but for me any relationship, be it with friends, parents, at work…they all are spontaneous. Meaning, one needs to move with the flow and be natural. Else it is a false relationship – and I don’t intent to be in it at all.
I know some people who are totally deliberate in handling relationships. I need to explain this a bit. Remember the time when you calculate and plan your moves when you are trying to get this ‘girl’ or a ‘guy’. You plan every move, check who called last, who said what, make a schedule on what, how and when you should be doing things. At times play hard to get and other sweep the other with your smooth talking and flirty self.
Right, we all have been there. But I know of some who do exactly the same with all friends as well. Jeez… how does one get so much energy to plan and scheme all relationships, and if you do that, how do they ever work?
For me, if I am thinking of a friend, I will pick up the phone, call and say hello, or send an email, or sms…something, without giving thought to the fact that I was the one who had called even the last time, of we just met few days back, so I need to give it some time before I make any contact again, or, if I talk too often my value will reduce (heard about law of diminishing marginal utility?) well, I don’t plan such things, as, for me relationships work from the heart and not mind.
It is not a game of chess that you play, planning your moves and see how you can have the upper hand and win the game. Relationships to me are like music. Where you need to be free, let your hair down, be oneself , enjoy every moment, move with the flow and when one does that, it then becomes like a beautiful symphony – which one just sings along, effortlessly.
I think I am too grown now to understand the details of who did what or said what last. I do not have the energy to invest into planning and scheming all my relationships. I go with my heart, I like someone, I go talk and spend time with him/her, irrespective of any other dynamic attached to it.
If you are a deliberate person, I don’t think you and I can work things out. Like I said…for me relationships are totally spontaneous… if you belong to the other school of thought – lemme tell you, you gonna turn me off sooner than you realize.
Lets just be ourselves and play the symphony, lets see if the chords hit and we are able to sing it along. If we do – it is something to treasure for life, and if we don’t, what the hell, we will anyhow sing the crappy music we make and enjoy it still !!!
Are you game?

what heart desires
My eyes were following him all evening, waiting for the right moment to speak.Should I or should I not, was the question I had been debating. My heart said “speak” and mind “don’t”, after all I know nothing about him, apart from the fact that he makes my heart beat every time I see him.Yes, he is the one, as I have never felt this way before, so I decided and moved forward.I was close enough to speak, when she came and smilingly whispered something in his ears, he looked into her eyes, brushed her beautiful cheek with his lips, put his arm around her thin waist, and walked away. Standing there watching this, my eyes could not stop the drops that fell, and my heart has not stopped crying since, I wonder “why does God make us desire what we cannot get?”

I am spoofed
Hell broke in my inbox when I got many undelivered messages – that too to those I do not recollect sending any email for years. I checked my sent items and a spam was sent from my ID to my entire contact list of over 100 people. Some friends, some ex colleagues (and seniors), some partners, some SS’s friends (ooops) , and some I kinda don’t remember :) …
Well I then came to know that I have been spoofed – for the second time. Where a virus is sent to my ID which picks up the entire contact list and sends a marketing mailer to all from my ID (how cheap). I researched a bit and found that there are many to whom this has happened, and there is no solution to it. The company sending the marketing mailer cannot be questioned as it is technically not ‘hacking’. So what option do we have…nothing, explain to friends whom you can, and others – just hope that they understand it by themselves.
