It was bound to happen!!

-
Life was all happy.
Filled with flair and energy
Mind free as a bird
A dont-care attitude to everything
Days went past smooth
Enjoying the world as I go


It was bound to happen
May be freedom is not for ever.
Mind full of thoughts.
Thoughts of an unknown future.
Is it a compromise that i have done
Of course there is no right or wrong.

Yes, it was bound to happen
Better soon than later, i hope

Guess i was being selfish
Guess i was being scared
Guess i was being complacent
Guess i was being non-confident
In choosing something that was easy

I put lot of thinking into this.
I put a lot of energy into this.
Well, it was a matter of confidence
which built up once i took the plunge.
Surprising , though it was.
I knew deep down i had it in me.

It was bound to happen
It took some time though..
I am all happy again.
My mind free
My tensions relieved
My life having a direction
I am waiting for my future
Isnt this what one wants?

Now i am not praying
Nor am i wishing
But i know for sure
That it will all be good
It will all be good.

My weekend adventure

-
Life has been quite normal for past few months.. Nothing exciting has happened. I had been thinking , this is unusual.. For me, its a must that something crazy happens once every few months.Not that i want it that way, but invariably that is the case.... It was the independence day long weekend. Three of us planned a trip to grand canyon. We flew down to San diego from San francisco and then drove all the way to Grand canyon. We reached the place early in the morning.Grand canyon is truly one of the wonders of the world. We spend some time shuttling around at various vista points enjoying different views and taking picures.. Then in the afternoon we took a trail down to the colorado river through the canyon. It was a strenous, yet exciting hike . It took us about 7 hours to complete the 8 mile hike. We were totally exhausted but the hike was worth the experience. Next day we started on our way back ,spending few hours at one of my relatives home in phoenix. By about 7 in the evening we...

The white beauty................

Snow.. it has always been my dream to live in a snow-covered area.... miles and miles of plain land covered in beatiful white, sun rays reflecting out of a snow-capped mountain, rolling down a snow hill, throwing snowballs at each other,walking on snow mountains dragging your leg out of soft snow.... Being in the southern part of India, i never got a chance to see snow... and somehow i could not make up time to visit kashmir during winters... My first experience with snow was during my first visit to US. The week that i landed here, me and my friend went on a 36 hrs train journey to Colorado all the way from California. From there, we went to the rocky mountains. It was the beginning of september. So we were not actually dressed for any cold weather. A bus took up to the top of the mountains. We had to walk up for half an hour to reach a top view point. Half way through , the climate went really cold and hail storm started. Both of us dressed in T-Shirts were shivering and we ran ...

Couple of weeks ago, my cousin rang me up andasked if i was interested in joining him to watch padayani - a traditional performing art of kerala that is celebrated in few Kaali temples in southern kerala. I had heard a bit about padayani from my father and other friends but did not havetoo much idea about it. Hence decided to explore it. And Boy, Had i not been there, it would have been a huge loss. The history behind padayani goes something like t his. There was a daemon called Daarikan who was an ardent follower of Lord Brahma.He got a boon from the god that he could never be killed by a man and if a drop of his bloo d is spilled into the ground , a thousand daemons would rise from that. The daemon became so powerful because of this boon and he started creating havoc.Lord Shiv a opened his third eye and created goddess Maha Kaali to save the people from Daarikan.She travelled on the back of a daemon called Vethala and confronted Daarikan After a few setbacks, Maha Kaali was fi...
