The Conqeror
Thrown into the battlefield of life, My enemies grinned wide, for they knew I was battling against their might. How could I, a small being, compete with the strong forces conspiring against me? Even though I encountered them every day, I never recognised where they hid. They simply attacked and left, leaving me dumbfounded... Day … Continue reading The Conqeror
Opening the Wrap.
I’m wrapped in beautiful shades of pink and blue, So neatly covered that I don’t see my true hue. Why was I so wrapped up? For me, or was it for you? Why oh why did I think the wrap was better than my truth? Why did I hide beneath the glitter? Why did … Continue reading Opening the Wrap.

Friends, December is still here. Within the excitement, enticement, and ecstasy of the season come deep feelings of joy, empathy, and kindness.

The Power Of Surrender
Something I wanted to share. Strange but true, how do you reach where you are? Is it by chance, or choice? The suffering of mankind is unkind, But it reflects that, truly, we are all of the same kind. Esteemed or not, wise or a fool, it does not distinguish, However, the powerful one can’t … Continue reading The Power Of Surrender

Precipice to a fall
What’s up, Deepu? Are you done? I was tempted to say yes, and I almost did. But then I asked myself, “Where’s your grit”? Not liking the question, I barked back, “Oh shut up, will you, and then realised I was only contradicting myself. So now, “ An aspiration rose at the helm of desperation. … Continue reading Precipice to a fall
