Adios 2009, Bienvenue 2010

Footfalls echo in the memory 
Down the passages, which we did not take. 
Towards the door we never opened.
Into a new spring with new hopes... 


So many things to ponder about this year, yet so many others which I would want to forget. This year was full of ups and downs. Some moments that just flew by, yet some other that just wouldn't pass. But in the end it's peace. Now its like a pure fragrant breeze.


I am thankful that this year happened the way it happened. I've learnt so many things. Understood the world better, Understood myself better!! And yes I did things I am proud of-- this year I started blogging, sketching and painting. I have met so many new people, have made a new set of amazing friends, yet kept my past friendships strong enough. 


What the next year would bring, I do not know. But I know next year would be an year of change. So many new events which I look forward to, yet I am a bit scared of. April, September, and December being some crucial months. How things turn out to be, we'll know by the end of next year-- same place, same time :). Till then I'll keep blogging, painting, sketching, prosecuting, drafting, reading... n above all dreaming, discovering, and exploring. 


Adios 2009, Bienvenue 2010!

The little lamp

My little lamp,
be it a calm night or a stormy dawn,
my little lamp has shined on,
be it a breeze or a cyclone,
it has fluttered n sputtered but it has shined on,
It's seen so much,
and yet I've know that it would shine on,
So, why is it that it is dimming now,
where is it's warmth now,
when the weather is absolutely norm,
But deep down I know it would shine on...

(I know it doesn't rhyme too well, but then I'm no poetess. :P. I'm just an optimist, who will keep trying.)
