Year 2010 - Best so far

Well, no matter what is going on in our minds, we still have a choice to feel and be happy. Because we are still better than the millions, may be billions.

May this be the best year in our lives so far. Amen.

Hinder - The best is yet to come

One of the songs, that made me think, some things are not for you to control, rather you should just let them go, and follow your dreams, and just do them, just make them happen. This goes out to all those who are courageous enough to dream.




The best of the hinder's lyrics from it:
Just go for it, run towards it, dive in headfirst,
live life with no regret,
Put your heart out there, don't get scared,
You might get hurt, but it's all worth it in the end,
'cause the best is yet to come.

Imagination and Albert Einstein

There are two quotes I read today, and I can't help sharing them. So here they are, read and think for a while.

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.”

and

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”

Albert Einstein

Dreams

A song of me that remained unsung,
Words flew around, desperate to be sung,
The lines of passion soared together,
A rhythm of devotion that lives forever;

When you play the guitar without its strings,
When you fly your eagle without its wings,
that's the time when you are dreaming alone,
And try to soar with the wind that's really gone;

Tears of heaven fell on the clouds of dream,
No one knows what they really seem,
Dreams are not true, this is what i know,
so don't hold them tight, just let them go;

Feeling the intense beam of my heartbeat,
A beam of dream, which forced me to meet,
To meet my soul with my passion,
To make me mine in an uncommon fashion;

Electrically my dreams were neutral from the start,
Don't know how, the heaven of me played its part,
took me to the border of unleashed time,
Stole something from me that's really mine;

Listen my dear, don't expect too much,
Just don't long for that soothing touch,
Dreams are wanted,yes,its true,
But the best for you is only you.

Motivation : Something we all should have

It's Inside Us.


There have been a lot of complaining going around here on this blog, some great people insisting and telling me that I really haven't been able to update my blog, in the real true sense of updating it. :)

Reason? The way I see it, it was the motivation. I wasn't motivated to update it, that regularly, rather was focused and motivated regarding my other stuff. Since realizing that it was the motivational factor that caused the delay, I thought I should say something about it.

Everybody really needs to be motivated about something. Yes, you read it right. NEEDS TO BE. We all humans need some targets in our lives, that result into our ambitions or aspirations, and for those we all need to be well motivated. The best kind of motivation to me is the self-motivation.

Self-motivation is something, that is not hard to find. It's rather just a difficult realization. We all know, its going to come from ourselves. It's inside us. But seldom we all realize. We end up telling ourselves that looking for this kind of motivation doesn't worth it.And we don't need it. But its WRONG. Being self-motivated is a proof, that you know your purpose. And we all have some purpose, don't we?

Sometimes we look for other factors that motivate us. That I call the external factors. They are strong like money, success, fame, or acceptance. BUT, the strongest of them all is the motivation that doesn't need any external factors, its the self-motivation.

...find out, what you really love to do

To know what you want to do; To know what you will be doing; And to know what is that thing when you do it you will be the happiest. Such thoughts, are the indicators, that yes you are self-motivated. So for that the first step is to find out, what you really love to do. I mean really really really really love to do.

Just for one moment, forget about the environmental circumstances, and think. Think clearly. Think ideally. What do you really want? And when you find it out. Attach passion to it. Just go on doing it, regardless of whatever is happening around. You will find motivation. You will be doing it all by yourself, without even pushing yourself.

Remember, its easier said than done. So better try doing it, rather then just thinking about it. Like any other habit, you would just need to keep on trying and practising. One day you will savour.

Good luck.

Chris Daughtry - Open up your eyes

This post is not just about sharing this song with the world, its more about the essence I want to share out of it. That is, just for once, get out of your current situation, look at the nature, look without the blurry conscious of your seemingly regretful sorrows, and you might find the peace that you've been looking for. Nothing matters more than what you really wanna see in the world. Enjoy the song :)


For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes

When hope works...

Napoleon Hill once said:

"Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit."

What do we see being emphasized here? Whatever we are going through, whatever negative, it does contain an opportunity to reach out and grab the positive. All that we will make us believe that it is possible, is our HOPE. and Faith in our fates, that well-being is not just a prisoner of uncontrolled fate. Rather also requires some input from us.

Change. Hope. Both work along. We can't bring in a positive change unless we are hopeful. And we can't just be hopeful and wait for things to happen. We need to and we should take a step. Be the change. It's an uphill drive for sure. But it sure does worth it.

So don't let the bad times, pull you down. Rise up. Fight!

Finding hope

Where to start? Hope is right inside you. It's given to you by nature. All we need to do is dare discover it. Utilize it. Feel it. Breath the difference it makes.

Hope can give you a lot of things, that money can't; what other's can't. So would you stop hoping, because you didn't get the first grade? I don't think so. We still wanna hope, don't we?

Yes, it gives you strength, assures you to keep trying, the victory will be yours. So would you give up? or hope to win?

Never give up. Hope, strive, and keep up the efforts. Take the first step. That is considered to be the hardest.

Good luck.

Back

Recently, I haven't been able to update this blog, its been a month now. I won't say it was a bad idea. I had to pull back, give myself some time, and rethink things. For good of course. There are one or two thoughts, I would like to share.

Whenever there is a change, make sure you know, how your responsibilities are changing? Be ready. To rise up and serve them. These include responsibilities of every kind, to yourself, to your family and friends, to your work, and to Allah. It's important. For that one requires to be very flexible. Along the thinking process, I read somewhere:

"Today, is the first day of the rest of your life".

If we think a little, its true. By any means you can't challenge it. You know why? Because you can't change anything about your past. WHATEVER it is.

So decisions come to us, whether we wanna attach our today, to our present moments, or to our pasts.

Pasts are only for lessons learnt. And no lesson learnt is valuable, if we don't apply it. Simple.

One more thing I read. Find it truthfully deep, if we could really think along.

"Count your blessings, not your problems".

True right?

Anyways, I hope this post happens to be a good come back. Things have been busy lately. :)

Thank you all for your patience. Appreciate it. And all those asking me to update, did contribute, in making me update it. A special thank you for them.

P.S: Giving up is not a solution. So, Never give up, step back, change, strike!

Alter Bridge - Before tomorrow comes

Talk of a song, that brings out the best in you. Feeds you the motivation you need. The trigger to the internal drive. Its really one of those. Music, pumps the energy in the lyrics. In turn the combination is a booster for many. Its theme is very true. Its all about what you really wanna believe in. Staying back, and fighting your way up to the clouds, or falling back, denying to be happy. Choose right now!



The best lines from the song are:

So don't let it be
Before tomorrow comes
Before you turn away
Take the hand in need
Before tomorrow comes
You could change everything

And the song ends up with the line .. the essence of being truly a human:

We could be so much more than we are
Oh this much I know

Believe in yourself. and Be the trigger to happiness.

Life : A guest house

Today, I got to read a great piece of writing. It was shared by Danielle LaPorte, here.
It describes life as a guest house. And events as guests. My favorite lines are at the end, that are:

"...Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond."

Indeed, that is how we should be reacting to the events in our lives. Because in the end, its our reaction, and choices that shape our lives. Choose to be happy, no matter what.

Destination Unknown


There are some words that i left behind,
is there something that i should find,
i can do everything but i cant mourn,
somehow, some way i will find my destination unknown,

where is the motivation that i deserved,
a bit of imagination that remained preserved,
lets play that beat and sing that song,
i will always return, where i belong,

my heart has something and thats the only reason,
so i have to rise above and change the season,
got to find the special day,
wheres the destiny for this unknown way,

people laugh, but i only scream,
living this life like a dream,
strolling in the darkness but i can see,
Ah! feel so lonely like a leafless tree,

soon i'll get to that place,
indeed i'll bring a moment of grace,
sky will watch and people will see,
i have nothing but this crazy me,

my body is in the future but the mind is in the past,
there is an invisible shadow, that i always cast,
all the friends are lost, but feelings last,
dont believe me, but dear, fate do play its part.

Joe Satriani - Flying in a blue dream

Everyone who likes the guitar, knows who joe satriani is. It's one of his best instrumental. Picks up great. To me its a recharger. Energizes the mind vibes. Picks me up. Rejuvenate. Such tracks for me are an escape route to my objectives, whenever i m hung up in the complexities of life.

Lene Marlin - Faces

Today, is one of those days, when the mood is real light, low. Seeking smoothness. So, dived in to those kinda tracks today. Dug this out of my collection. Simple one; simple beat simple lyrics. Do try it. And i wish, i could dedicate it.

Okay, one more year passed, successfully

So here it is, another year I lived through successfully :). Its been a roller coaster. and expecting same ahead. Have seen a lot, learnt a lot. Experienced new things. Professionally; Personally. I have done well, but there is room for improvement. 

Yes, I am one year older but more content; and composed. More control over nerves. Keeping the best things to come along to the next year. and hoping for the best to come:)

Today's my birthday. the 12th of may.

Not to miss, I got to know a lot of good people through blogs. From whom, i learn something new everyday, and get to share somethings. Cherish that. So thank you; each and every one of you :)

Having a busy day so far. :)

One of the things that I have learnt so far is, never give up. never give up on your dreams. Unless you're sure, it's over. But at the same time, if you really care about some one, and that some one is willing to break free. Let it happen. What's really yours, will come to you. Just believe. Things can be simpler. We cannot have everything. Cherish, what we have. This life, will never be problem free. Its not perfect, unless YOU see it perfect. Things will fall apart. Nature's nature. It's us, who can make a difference, in our lives. and of course in lives of others.

May I be blessed with the power of helping others. and Making their lives easier. and Helping others realize and understand their problems. And to help them, figuring out the solution. Amen.

Placebo - Blind

Without being sway

One night I asked myself to talk,
To talk to me, and let the fears walk,
Still, I m lying awake in my bed,
Swinging in my dreams, being blue and red,

Whether its autumn or spring, don’t care,
It’s a world of challenges, and yes I m here to dare,
I would fly, fly high even without my wings,
To the gardens of truth, where faith springs,

Can’t let the truth become a lie,
Want to go higher, where the dreams fly,
Need a vision; a trail of stars to follow,
Got to find bliss, and keep away the sorrow,

Beneath those shiny stars, without whom the night is nothing,
I sat on the mountain of dreams, thought of something,
About that something, that was mine long ago,
Would have those desires back, that’s what I know,

Trust, truth and care that’s what I can’t give away,
Lost some dreams, so let's just pray,
I feel like flying, without being sway,
So can’t let my faith in me drift away.

Bob Seger - In your time

I am truly sorry for being away. But, I can't help it. It's been tough. I've been trying to stay in touch with the blogosphere, by commenting on the blogs. These days music is the only escape I have to minimize my boredom, and I can listen to it, even if I m driving to work or coming back to home. I am hung up to this one classic. I hope people will like it. :) And these words from the song are dedicated to all of my bloggy friends :) 

Feel the wind,
And set yourself the bolder course,
Keep your heart,
As open as a shrine,
You'll sail the perfect line...


(P.S: Wait till the saxophone kicks in!)

Dave Mathhews - Bartender

The performance like this, happens once in a long time. The feel of the song is totally majestic, out of the world. For me, it feels like there are a lot of emotions in there. Try out.

First step

This is just a random post. Been circling my own mind, clueless. Tossing up and down the neurons, and they are not tired at all. They are the ping pongs. Ping pongs of my free mind. :)
There's been a lot of planning. No actions. Bad. So, I engaged myself into a lot of stuff. Of course, that interests me. So, now planning feels like worthwhile.
Point is, there is no point making a plan, if its not going to turn into an action. And considering the conversion rate I see now after so much effort, it feels motivating. Feels like thinking ain't bad after all.
Well, they say its all about the first step. Okay, if not all, its mostly about the first step. Better take it, better than regretting later.
So, if you are thinking of doing something, and ONLY thinking about it. Better put it into action, just believe in it. You'll know, if its going to work or not. :) Try!!
As far as I am concerned, I wanna achieve so much. Let's see... what happens.

The echo of my heart

With the shattered dreams, and broken wings,
here i am, standing in the dark, where the shadow springs,
high above me, there's a dark cloud flying,
screaming for forgiveness,felt like crying,

what to decide, and what to live for,
yet again, got the pain, waiting for more,
through the ashes of time, looked in the eyes of fate,
made me strong, made me fight the shadows of hate,

closed my eyes, heard the echo of my heart,
compelling for the survival, and asking for a start,
the journey of my dreams awaits me,
and the road to success, that i cant see,

hope springs where happiness dies,
keeps us alive, and defeats the lies,
let me step up to the borders of sadness,
let me bring back to you the same old kindness,

a shimmer of hope that i want to follow,
that could help me stay away from all the sorrow,
let us put our hands together,
and pray, that we bloom and shine forever!

Make me smile kiddo

I can't stop thinking, and figuring out what do I really want. How can I improve my current state of affairs? I am very thankful for whatever I am right now, Alhamdolilah. But there is a hunger deep inside me, to keep looking for more. Not just for myself but also for the people around me. And I do manage to do some things here and there.

Now one of those things is, how can we make a difference in someone's life, or just a day-today or tomorrow? Well, we can bring up a smile on their faces. Simple. I love doing that. Doesn't matter if it makes me look stupid. There's a kid inside me, a happy-dappy one. I believe, everybody has it. So sometimes let that kid do the talking. :)

I am no scholar. But I do know, making someone happy, makes me feel happy.

Peace.

Yesterday to tomorrow

Stepping out in the sunshine,
leaving back the prime time,
holding up my hands to the sky,
begging for a merciful deep cry,

hoping for tears to stay true to me,
they were slipping away; why couldn't i see,
the cloud once mine, rained somewhere else,
its getting hard to breathe and being myself,

before tomorrow comes and stare at me,
lets prepare ourselves for the next journey,
in search of the unanswered questions of fate,
let's breathe in hope, let's put what's left at stake,

then senses respond to the sun casting an unseen shadow,
today connects to the soul of desperation, something hollow,
mind treads through time, yesterday to tomorrow,
feels like trapped between my new bliss and old sorrow,

lost in the shaken beliefs, and the truths unspoken,
the heart tells you the story of being broken,
your faithful tears leave your eyes alone,
and its hard to differentiate between a heart and a stone.

Tick Tock

Just had a random conversation with a friend, here is some thing out of it:

Me: I saw "INTO THE WILD". and i thought about you. In fact I thought about all the ambitious people I know.
X: Yeah. Life is sh*t without ambitions.
Me: Life isn't life without ambitions. It becomes a tick tock. Just a tick tock.

Feeling Mixed

I usually look out for words for my heart and my mind in songs, in lyrics and some times in poetry. Today i am having a lot of feelings. All of them at the same time.And then I was going through the lines I collect out of the songs, and this is how I summarize what is going in my mind. I am sure most of us do feel this way at times. Dig through the following:

"Do you know where your heart is?, Do you think you can find it?"
[OneRepublic - Say (All i need)]

"Can you loose everything?, you ever had planned, can you sit down again?, And play another hand."
[Bryan Adams - Never let go]

"Lookin' for adventure, In whatever comes our way"
[Steppenwolf - Born to be wild]

and eventually made me read my poem Reclamation again...

Peace.

P.S: All of these are great songs.

Cant you see what you mean to me

A flower is nothing without its beauty,
A life is nothing without its mystery,
Don’t you worry, I’ll be there when you’ll need me,
Cant you see what you mean to me,

When I’m alone, I don’t know what to do,
So for a while, I think about you,
I’m the door to which you are the key,
Cant you see what you mean to me,

I see you before the sun could shine,
You are the heaven, that is only mine,
Without you this life is hell to me,
Cant you see what you mean to me,

Just fly to me, because you are my fairy,
As you visit me in my dreams daily,
A touch of you bring life to me,
Cant you see what you mean to me,

I began to feel the loneliness,
When I lost your kindness,
I didn’t know where I wanted to be,
Cant you see what you mean to me,

You become my eyes when I see,
You become my heart when I feel,
You are the one who completes me,
Cant you see what you mean to me.

Reclaiming Dreams

Don't we all have dreams? Some things we want to achieve in our lives. But seldom we let ourselves pursue them. We consider the people who actually make a run for it, LUCKY!

But the fact is, we have to do something. I came across a post, regarding what holds you back from your dreams. The link is at the end of this post. I agree with it. But, things can be difficult because circumstances are different with everybody. But, the possibility is there. It is. 

The only basic reason for not doing it is that we start doubting it. Uncertainty comes into action. But here is a line from that post that puts up the right thing so clearly:

"No one knows how to make their desires real prior to taking the first step. Knowing comes from doing. Paths are made by walking."

So, we got to give them a try, most of us are busy, in work and home life. or studies and home life. But, if we really want something, i mean really really want it, at least we can take few steps in that direction. Just to see, just to KNOW, if that's the path you want. 

The examples (given in the post) for having doubts and not being able to step forward are:
  • Not knowing what will happen if you fail.
  • Being afraid of going for what you want.
  • Lack of belief in yourself.
  • Fear of being wrong.
  • And yes, sometimes even fear of success.
And, I agree with them. Thinking clearly is very important. Being uncertain is not. 

Someone once told me, taking risks is really important (calculated ones though). We should. 

An Eagle wont know for sure that she can fly, unless she pushes herself into the air out of the nest. (of course better to have someone to make the push, that helps. A lot).

So, go for it... go go go! :)

Thought cycle

And, I vanished yet again. I really don't like doing that. But I just get busy (yeah, its an excuse). I got hung up with work, home and of course myself. I always ask myself, how do myself keep me busy..?

Well, its that continuous thought process. Literally continuous. I am just busy chasing one thought and the another, and the cycle goes on. Mostly in pursuit of positivity, and reasons. They say thinking is good, but they also say over-thinking is not good. I totally agree. 

Now about controlling it. Well, if its really natural you can't contain it. You can't stop it once and for all. So what do I do ?

I give it directions. I give it magnitude. I give it motivation. Easy said than done eh? Hehe. :)

But, no harm in giving it a try. I have been doing it now successfully, err.. Partially for now :) It does take some time. Some patience.

Since I know it can be done, will master it. Thoughts can be productive. I am sure everybody else can. Now this post is just a thread out of that thought process. 

Point is, do think, its good. Do reason, but don’t over-do it. Like everything should be in balance, so this should also be. It won't be in balance for granted. We have to do it, until it becomes a part of you. Just like you learn to balance a bicycle, and then you do it automatically.

Do mediate. Don't over do it. :) Just give your thoughts a little room. Close your eyes. And let your mind wander a while. Don't choke it. But at the same time don't let it go wild (wild in the sense it starts disturbing you, exceptionally for creative work you can :D).

Peace.
P.S: This "me and myself" thing, reminds of a poem of mine My Asylum. :)

Pearl Jam - Release

This song is surreal. The feel of it, carried me away. Been listening to it for quite some time now. The live performance I am sharing, is magestic. I wish that I were there. The lyrics are strong. Deep. Intriguing. Putting them here as well...


The Lyrics

Pearl Jam - Release

Father...ooh...oh...oh...
I see the world, feel the chill
Which way to go, windowsill
I see the worlds on a rocking horse of time
I see the verse in the rain
Ohh...ohh...ohh...ohh...

Oh, dear dad, can you see me now
I am myself, like you somehow
Ill ride the wave where it takes me
Ill hold the pain...
Release me...
Ohh...ohh...ohh...ohh...

Oh, dear dad, can you see me now
I am myself, like you somehow
Ill wait up in the dark for you to speak to me
Ill open up...
Release me...
Release me...
Ohh...ohh...ohh...ohh...

Some changes are for good...

Some people get scared of the changes happening around them. Some can't handle them, just being scared with the thought that why are they happening? and what would they do about it? They get scared of the thoughts like, whats next? what would be the result of the change? Then the ultimate thought arises, that is it for the good or the bad??

But to be on the best side of things, instead of thinking, that this change would be about something bad in your life, its better to think positive, and hopeful. Because thinking hopeless wont help, so there is no harm in giving a chance to your hopeful, and consistent positive thoughts. Just think, make it your state of mind, that you will get the best out of the change, because some changes in life are the blessings in disguise. Changes seem initially unacceptable, but as the time moves on, they turn out pretty well. 

Every human deserves the best out of life. If its not happening, thinking negative won't help either, so the best bargain is you keep your mind hopeful for the good things. Because thinking negative will only make you feel worse, not better, not ready. Instead, being hopeful, also makes you feel better.

Accept the changes, work with them. Expect the best output. Expect the best for yourself. Expect the best of you.

Good luck to all.

Peace!

Pearl Jam - Jeremy

I am totally in love with this song, don't know the exact reason. But it touches the deepest thought one can have. They say, pearl jam wrote this song, after reading a news about a boy who shot himself in front of his classmates. One of the way I look at this song is that, I look for improvements, in everything I see around me. Give it a listen. Its a live performance here. You can look for the original video on YouTube. That video really stirred some minds. Here it is...





A change is in act

Well, from this month, February, i m moving on with my professional life with a new company. I am excited, motivated, hungry for success, and sad for not being able to work with my teammates from the previous company. Its all mixed feelings. We were the best team I ever worked with.

But, at the same time, being in my nature now, i don't look back at my past. Just keep the helpful experiences with me. Everything else goes in the black hole. 

I am looking forward to a wonderful year. With lots and lots of opportunities. Regarding self-improvement, outlook on life, helping others, and of course enjoying this tiny life.

The lessons I have learnt are priceless. Something that you can never learn from books. 

I am planning to keep this blog updated. But since last month was really keeping me on toes, I couldn't do so. Sorry readers.

So see you around.

Peace!

Pearl Jam - Wishlist

Now this song is really closely attached to me. It gives me vision; It reminds me of my dreams. It reminds me of those time when i used to be sad. It reminds of courage, that i found right within myself. It reminds me of all those aspirations that I wanna keep following. It just charges me up. Check it out. Do read the lyrics.



The Lyrics:

"Wishlist" by "Pearl Jam"

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish...
I wish...

A new year, A new resolution

Here we are in another brand new year. Feels like a fresh start is waiting for us. It’s a nice time, to put together your "new" resolution. Its always a good idea, to put behind whatever happened in the past. Because, hey, that’s the fact, you can't do anything and I mean anything about it. You can’t change it.

Being a positive thinker, having my sight set ahead, one part of my new resolution is forget/forgive what happened in the past. And move on. There are enough challenges ahead as compared to the challenge of keep diving in the past. 

Past is only for one thing: To learn something from.

So, the new year is here. Better brace ourselves, for another tough year keeping in mind the global economic recession or whatever. :) But we are bigger than that. Have better things to take care of.

Start exercising, improve your diets, plan some more improvements. Change yourself in a better way. Establish achievable goals. Make them your targets. And yes, don’t forget to add the ingredients called will power and discipline. Without them, resolution will go down the drain. :)

You can always add up the things from your previous resolution. It wont hurt anything. Just be more hungry about your targets this time. And i mean genuinely hungry.

Whatever you plan and hope to achieve, good luck. And yes, one more point I would like to add in my list and would want you guys to add, that is "Be Happy".

Good luck to all, for the year ahead.

Peace.

Eagles - Long road out of eden

This is one of the tracks, that used to give me goose bumps. It has some kind of depth, that i could never figure out. Have a listen to it.




A piece from the song's lyrics

"Silent stars blinking in the blackness of an endless sky
Cold silver satellites, ghostly caravans passing by
Galaxies unfolding, new worlds being born
Pilgrims and prodigals creeping toward the dawn
But it's a long road out of eden"
