Sleeping At Last - Careful Hands

Just got to listen to this wonderful track. It has the melody that some what feels like a healer. The meaning of lyrics are really deep for me. And also for those who want to perceive the positivity of nature, in simplest of ways.

All those out there, who are going through some kind of suffering, for those to whom life has been cruel in some way, i have just one thing to say never let go of hope. Just don't let go. Questions are answered.

Enjoy the track.
The lyrics: 

"Careful Hands" by "Sleeping At Last"

"Put your coat on, this city trembles.
Keep your chin up, as you untangle God
From cold blood and bruises.

We are X-rays of something broken.
Cursive bloodlines write every forecast:
An orchestration Of dissonance and innocent surrender.

When our color dies,
We will bury the ashes of time,
And we will earn new eyes.

Wrists get tired rewriting futures.
Our bodies beg us to be creatures of habit.
We are creatures of habit.

Only with careful hands
We’ll turn their fangs into feathers and cures.
Only with careful hands
We’ll divide the prisoner
From the pioneer.

Clever beauty,
Umbrellas folding.
In architecture, our lines will measure
A map to find us.
Blue ink will guide us home.

Cranes are creeping, lifting metal,
We will find new ways to settle,
Tipping scales from the killer to its prey.

I can feel the weight around us,
Climbing every rib inside us,
A sanctuary in a lion’s mouth"

Focussing pays off! : The story of a Frog

So here it goes, there were once some frogs which were stuck inside this well. All the frogs wanted to get out, but after realizing that its a touch too difficult, they gave up. All the frogs gave up except one. It kept on trying and trying. All the frogs inside the well always yelled and taunted on this one frog that he'll never get out no matter what. But this frog would just not stop. Eventually, one day, that frog did succeed in getting out. Outside the well, other frogs approached him and asked how he managed to get out? But this frog didnt listen and wondered off. The frog was deaf.

Moral: When people start mocking you and/or try to demotivate you from reaching a certain objective/milestone in life, listen to their crap from one ear and let it out the other! :)

Saying: When people start to make fun of what you are doing, know that you are excelling!

Open Road

There it is, a new beginning to the same old journey,

Midway to my destiny and expecting eternity,

Thought about losing my way,

But no, I m here to stay,

 

I can see a wide open road in front of me,

This life still can be an endless sea,

Across the high mountains, there is a land,

Just for me, to think; and to understand,

 

Just have to let myself know, what my heart desires,

In this hollow world, there is something that inspires,

Like seeking a lost valley with a golden river,

A wind of glory, that takes away your shiver,

 

Even if I lose my soul, but still I would live,

Even if I have nothing, but still I would give,

Every corner has something, so I won’t flee,

Yes, this life is an open road to me,

 

Sometimes I can’t decide what’s right,

Feels like driving through a dark night,

But still life has the answers and the light,

‘Cause yes, life is an open road, with an extraordinary might.



Inspired by the song: "Open Road" by Bryan Adams

Sun to earth: Unconditionally present...


Unconditional is the word for it. Giving; without expectation. Giving; to make a difference and to make others live a better life. Just found this picture randomly, thought it would be a good share.

Sometimes, its not really that easy to share, care, and get concerned unconditionally. The challenges we face, the difficult conditions we get into, the impossible people we deal  with and the feeling of giving up on others; all of these things can contribute to, you becoming less concerned about what is happening around you...

But, we've got to do it, empathetically. We can always start with our families, our friends, people we know, and then on to strangers ( why not ?, no tax on trying - at least once. ).  This is one of those steps, that can make this world a better place to live in. 

Peace.

Nickelback - If today was your last day

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday? 

-----------------------------------------
This song has a really really good message in it. In simple words. In simple thoughts.

Peace!

Reclamation

lost in the ashes of time once burnt,
few mistakes realized, some lessons learnt,
trapping the soul inside, breathing some sanity,
a step towards life, giving some room to sympathy,

being lonesome tonight, showed me the path,
being an angel to me, avoiding the unforeseen wrath,
something is always wrong, on your way through,
true strength lies in the way it is ignored by you,

life never is the bed of roses, neither of thorns,
keep this life intact, keep on shouting your horns,
it never is a one way traffic, give some, and take some,
share happiness, and some sadness, that becomes the whole sum,

your happiness is in the box, that you never open,
open it, feel it, live it, and strengthen,
your hopes, desires and passion, all the way,
find yourself, inside you, right now, today,

breathe in sounds of nature, fill your heart,
with the heavens of bliss, begin a brand new start,
the touch of truth, the feeling of freedom,
deny the past, live, escape your boredom,

sensations don’t stop, sense your flight of stardom,
live beyond hopes, talk beyond freedom,
lift your soul, fly, across the skies,
search for a place, where hope never dies,

flee away, from deception of your mind, feel free,
fly high, with all your glory, with passions of glee,
be your reality, wake your senses, live your dreams,
this life awaits you, just live it, with all your means.

The Twilight Zone....

Yeah i know there's alot of uncertainity in life, yeah i know things can get real difficult, yeah i know the human is greedy, and yeah some things are just too important for you in life...

can you endure the waitingg...??
can you enjoy the "meanwhile" ...??
can you possibly think about the worst case scenario ...??
can you ask yourself the "what if?" ..??
can you let go ...??

you know they say always keep trying - give it an all out effort - but what if even after doing all that it takes, you are still left helpless..?? with the dreaded feeling of drowning in a pool of anxiety..!! - how will it end?

I guess the only thing that can fight this uncertainity in life is the belief in "fate," ..... something which can keep you going on.... You gotta keep it together, keep yourself motivated, encouraged, focussed and full of life at all times..

Remember at all times, that there is only a certain percentage of the work which is under your control... Play your part of the game to the best of your abilities and just "belief" in the rest to happen.... :) - if you'v played a fair game, you're certainly the winner... Just do it!

Life : Puzzle

Few days back I was having a conversation with a friend of mine; this is something I ended up saying:

“You know, it’s hard to stay focused, and hold people together, when I see almost all of the people I know, drowning in their thoughts, without any sign of rising back up.

But dude, trust me, it’s just a puzzle.

It will solve you, or time will solve it. Or it will keep you puzzled.”

I should have also added that “One shouldn’t give up efforts to solve it!” Life really can become a puzzle, and there can be times when you might feel like, some of the pieces are missing. But you can’t know for sure unless you try putting pieces together. Keep trying!

Just don’t give up people!

Mercy rain

Its another of those sleepless nights,
when my heart ponders upon desired delights,
Its another of those moonless nights,
when the stars seem to lose their mights,

set out on a journey in search of answers,
yet again being clueless, looked up to my heavens,
all that i know is there exists a better tomorrow,
its a little faith, a little hope that my heart wants to follow,

its a journey of unknown, a desire becoming eternal,
my heart persists, mind questions, why is it so special?
mysterious ways of nature, suspicious times of fate,
eventually its the strange loneliness of yours that you hate,

waiting for the sunrise, that turns the oceans blue,
chasing my dream, drowning in lies so true,
holding on for the hopes, for which we all long,
skies are gray, life's silent, but the faith is still strong,

addicted to my hopes, trying to escape from insanity,
collecting every smile around me, building up a road to eternity,
seeking peace within; some true dreams with pain,
looking up to the skies, wishing for my mercy rain.

A beginning to my blogging career

Here it is, realizing a wish, writing up my first blog.

I have always been into seeking inspirations, and turning them into my strengths. There is always something that clicks someone positively; clicks them to move ahead in whatever phase of life they are in. Hope never dies. It’s our faith in its existence that dies, eventually.

Inspirations and aspirations can be found anywhere, in any form. All you need to feel them is your faith in hope and success.

There is no particular reason, to start blogging, it's just a wish. It’s just a representation of what I think and perceive. :)

Nothing’s perfect. But still you want things to turn out perfect for you. For me following aspirations, is more important than hoping to get perfect one day. Merriam-Webster defines aspirations as “a strong desire to achieve something high or great”. Eventually, it comes down to our efforts, plus our desires to achieve what we want the most.

Our job is only to turn a desire into a passion. Rest flows. Persistent efforts are required.

Inspirations become your strength, and aspirations become your targets. Passion becomes the driving force to achieve those and keeping you focused.

Good Luck to all. Peace!
