Teach Me To Love......

-
The Romantic Me, I suppose....


Teach me the meaning of love, for I think, I am engulfed between feelings and reality
Teach me how to love, for I think, I am illiterate to core
Teach me why to love, for I think, I am beyond the definition of altruism
Teach me where to love, for I think, heart is just a metaphor for simplicity
Teach me to appreciate love, for I think, I am attuned to the concept of getting love
Teach me to desire love, for I think, thirst is easily quenched

But In The End,

Teach me to undo love for I have learnt to live, only for love!!!!

    The
    long
    tail
    of
    the
    copper
    pheasant
    trails-
    drags
    on
    and
    on
    like
    this
    long
    night
    in
    the
    lonely
    mountains
    where
    like
    that
    bird
    i
    too
    must
    sleep
    without
    my
    love

Selfies Of My Life

-
Sometimes I feel that the shots of my life are best expressed in selfies. Would I say that is a candid shot? Probably not because retakes are numerous!!! The head tilts back and forth and so does the angles but one thing remains the same, the smile. I have to thank the smartphones for opening this new path towards obsessive behaviour of click click but somehow I am happy with this particular obsession!!!! How I wish life could be like the selfies. I get to decide when to take the shot, how many to take, which ones to post (everywhere) and which ones to delete. Of course not to mention the colours and the edits which caters to my taste. It also shows the spectrum of life….ages as we would define! The twinkle of being in love, the despair of disappointments, the conflict of compromise, the paradox of present and the past, the expectation of the future, the tragedy of life and death and of course, the lines that shows the enormous wealth of experience!!

My honest confession about "Go Set A WatchMan" by Harper Lee

Go Set A Watchman Harper Lee August 02, 2015 (wrote this piece right after the book was published and posting now as a tribute to an author I admire) Let me start with an honest confession. I read To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee years ago. How could I not read it? It is one of the greatest classics and to not read would have been a blasphemy for an avid reader like me and an English major (at one point). But I forgot all about it till the rumour of the release of Ms Lee coming out with a new novel.

Part of me thought I should revisit the first novel so that I would be prepared for the release of Go Set A Watchman and part of me shamefully admitted to the fact that I
