Poem - #14 | They | You | We | Us

A large crowd of people moving here and there in hurry symbolizing the confusion in life.

Mirror, Mirror tell me why,
I feel this pain in every cry.
Though struck are they but hurt am I,
Sorrows be theirs but tears be mine ?

If we are all apart
Then why this pain,
A sting in my heart,
A throb in my vein ?

If we are not one, then tell me why,
Is their smile no different than mine ?
Why his tears be the same as hers,
While their fears still raise their furs ?

Then tell me, tell me, please tell me why,
Do we all seek to touch the sky ?
Though darkness is all thats ahead we know,
We still wanna give it a go.

Why we shudder in the silent cold,
Feel warm in a friendly hold ?
Kill for a little gold,
Forgetting everything we are told.

Oh Mirror, Mirror do unfold,
This blinding delusion of the many old,
For before I leave will be bold
For we are people, not toys to be sold.


A man kissing a girl in the forehead.

Love was when I met you ,
And kissed you under the darkening skies.

Love was when I held you,
Love was the warmth in your eyes.

Love was when you told me
That love never lies

Love was when I left you,
Love was tears in our goodbyes.

Two hands joined to make the symbol of love.

A thousand thorns I'll pass by,
To get to the rose you are.
A zillion dews I,ll grab upon,
To fill up the sea you are.

If you are the Moon, I'll be you night,
If you are the Sun, I'll be your light.

In your eyes I see this abyss of mystery,
Unaware of your past and history.
You came in my life as a ray of light,
In a void of darkness with a path to guide.

I've searched for you in valleys deep,
And up upon the mountains steep,
But little I knew you'll be so near,
So leaving behind all my fear,
I say out loud for you to hear,
That I have fallen in love with you dear.

A picture showing the Milky Way galaxy.

Soaring heavens up above,
Devils dwelling down below,
Stuck between them creatures we are,
Unaware bout were to go.

Swaying along with the breeze of Life,
Treading upon the steps of Time,
Stumbling, falling, rising up,
Doubtful bout when to stop.

Made are we of both light and dark,
All of us dying to leave behind our mark.

Some of us see the Moon rise up,
Some of us see the Sun go down,
Some of us play all our part,
While others forget where to start.

We run, we run,
We run so far,
We sting, be stung,
Caress a scar,
For this life is like a winter's shower,
A life that we call our,
A life that we call our.

Shree

Thought - #1 |Who is God?

Who is God? Who in this diverse world of ours hasn't heard about Him, a greater power above us all, a Being known to many by an infinite names. A Creator in some religions, a Destroyer in others, an entity in some and a force, energy in others. The very notion of God comes the the everlasting but yet the most preliminary and fundamental question that our human mind has been able to conceive. Who made us? And thus the paradoxical answer follows; someone, God. Why paradoxical? Because if we exist then it follows that their must be a creator else nothing makes sense. Our very existence proves the existence of the One. Although this mind boggling topic, also one of the most controversial ones to be accurate, has been there since we achieved self-awareness the truth is that it may never be answered. Yet is that all? Do we only see God as our creator or is there something more to it, a latent truth buried deep within our minds. It is a fact that it is our very human ...

Alireza Taheri Araghi | The Immortals of Tehran

BLURB: As a child living in his family's apple orchard, Ahmad Torkash-Vand treasures his great-great-great-great grandfather's every mesmerizing word. On the day of his father's death, Ahmad listens closely as the seemingly immortal elder tells him the tale of a centuries-old family curse . . . and the boy's own fated role in the story. Ahmad grows up to suspect that something must be interfering with his family, as he struggles to hold them together through decades of famine, loss, and political turmoil in Iran. As the world transforms around him, each turn of Ahmad's life is a surprise: from street brawler, to father of two unusually gifted daughters; from radical poet, to politician with a target on his back. These lives, and the many unforgettable stories alongside his, converge and catch fire at the center of the Revolution.

R.J. Palacio Reads | Wonder

Thoughts On The Book R.J. Palacio in her book 'Wonder' has beautifully encaptured  the problems that a specially abled or simply put a disabled person, has to undergo and suffer. She also talks about how a person has to tolerate bullying in school and his feelings: she also discusses about the life of pets and the way inhumane humans mistreat them. Pets as she says is more than just an animal. All this thought provoking instances are talked about in one book. This book has really touched my heart because not only has the author discussed about such problems in our society but he has essentially engraved into our soul a different perspective of life. She tells us about the many ways in which a person can overcome such a situation and how a disability doesn't necessarily mean that everything is over. Storyline The whole story revolves around the life of a little boy named August Pullman who was inflicted with Mandibulofacial dystosis from birth. Also commonly...
