My greatest Gift - Mahima
For people who know me for long enough know that I do not think much about celeberating days like valentines day, Mothers day etc., Aargh! I just dont need special days to tell people how much I love them.
This Mother's day when Mahima (means grace) my 5 year old came running towards me with a gift, wrapped in sparkling silver gift paper all these notions just vanished into thin air. Came out a cute pink water sipper. I was overjoyed. Even if she had a given me just that silver paper my emotions would have not been any different. Isn't it always special when love overflows and finds expression? She herself being the greatest gift of my life brought me such love and laughter of motherhood at that moment.
The path is filled with such joy that makes the journey of life such a beauty! I love you gal!

Shivoham!
Have been following airtel super singer on and off these days. Very impressed with the ways the singers have shaped themselves from what I remember hearing them in the earlier episodes. I had to skip the pre-final rounds this week cos of mahima's weird sleeping patterns. But today J shared with me this video -

And boy! I was bowled over again! I know I have heard this song atleast 100 times before . This scintillating music piece by Raja sends shivers up my spine each time I hear. I think it takes more than just knowledge of ragas and the usage of words to create this kind of a piece. Like Sadhguru says often it is the right concoction that works. This song definitely has that deadly concoction capable of moving a person, who has even the slightest openness to higher states. I bow down to the musician for producing this piece and to a person like Ravi who had the guts to take this song to the stage.

Lost and Found
The glare of bright lights
Tall structures of concrete
In day to day commerce
Buying time and money
Thought lost my way
Wandered in the darkness
Dust and in grime
Discomfort of the unknown
In the gripping lap of grace
Found that that never can be lost
-nor found

Journey of a Grain
When the first ray of sun touched me with his magic fingers
I punched through my tender shell to take a peek at this world
And my jounrney started...
The journey from a tiny, insignificant seedling
To a possibility that lead to the limitless
So full of pain, but all of it worth every tear
Slitting my own skin in agony
Clutching the soil with my roots
I grew with rapturous pain
In mud and in slush
Acceptance is all that I perched
Bit by bit, inch by inch
When I stood there in full bloom
Carrying thousand of myself in my shells
In gratitude I bent
Gratitude towards the Sun who showered his light
That life giving earth that nurtured me
Every earthworm that tilled the soil I lay
Gratefull am I to the air that kept me alive
Gratefull am I to every drop from the sky
So am I to the hedge that guard
I lay at his feet my head with love
The man who shed his sweat and blood
With a hungry belly but unwavering faith
Now that I am ready for the next stride
To be shredded into grains for a second time
My journey does not end before
You put a handfull of me in you
To make me that limitless joy that is you
Make me you, Make me you!

Of Blue and Me
Waters splendid blue and grey
Oh! What a beauty in display
You of such distance and depth
Yet near me like a lover’s peck
In your coast hearing you roaring croon
Giving away to your beauty serene
Oh waters blue and grey
Oh! What a beauty in display
You of such distance and depth
Yet near me like a lover’s peck
In your coast hearing you roaring croon
Giving away to your beauty serene
Oh waters blue and grey
You made this day my day !
