Something triggered me today to thorougly inspect
If it was a good thing or otherwise to "expect"
When i look back and retrospect
I found, it revolved around two aspects
One that results out of greed
The other as the fruit of your sown seed
On top of the world you feel, if they are met
If not, all that you get to do is to fret
Makes you feel that "they " are the prime suspects
And pushes you to swear "never to expect"
When things happen and you least expect
Blessings in disguise, they are, in a way;
When they don't,
Who cares? you never expected them anyway...
Wonder which is sweeter
If its the "expectations met" or "unexpected success"
I atleast know what is bitterer
"Unmet expectations" that leads to pain and distress
A single day to explore all its prospects
Ain't it too much to expect?!?
"When you hope for the best, better be prepared for the worst!!!"
A few days ago i was g-talking with a close friend of mine and it all started there. I asked her how her day was and in response to that, she narrated me quite a funny and hilarious story that took place that morning on her way to office. It left me laughing the entire day... Here it goes...
Prologue:
Every morning, my friend and her hubby leave to office together and they hit the hubby's office first, where my friend gets down and takes a rick to hers from there.
The events on that particular day:
Her observations in the rick:
(I must say she's pretty good at face reading, for, she told me she'd do that to those autowala's before getting into any of the ricks. If one has scary looks, she wouldn't get in. But on that day, she forgot to carry out that routine. )
Her reactions:
Her descriptions as told to me:
Her conclusion:
The ultimate truth:
Closing note:
PS: The title of this post was forced upon me by the victim of this little incident!!! The english translation would be - " An encounter with a lunatic - mor morning".. Oops i cant help it!! ;)
For All those who are in love,
Wishing you a very happy and memorable Valentine's day
For All those who are "Single and ready to mingle",;)
Good luck and yes, first of all happy independence day :P
And finally, for those already married,
hmmm... hmmm.. hmmm... hmmm...

Better luck next time :D
Her golden skin shone and the spots were crystal clear
Deep in her sparkling eyes
The glitter of rays enticed
Lost in the woods she seemed
Looking out for help, here and there she restlessly leaped
She was such a beauty, which one would have only dreamt
The fear and innocence was very much evident
Strolling across a pond in twilight
Looked as though the celestial torch had put her in limelight
Anticipating that she'd run into someone she knew
Walked into a thick jungle about which she had no clue
Suddenly facing her was the deadly beast
His message was clear - "Here is my feast"
With a glossy makeover, he beckoned her into his den
In an hours time she was all bones and skin
Felt that she was chastised
For her innocence and sanctity that naturally prevailed
Reminds me of a cynical adage
The innocents are the ones first to be gauged
The promise of tomorrow perish
Bitterness of the past continue to ravish
PS: The National Geagraphic showed it really well...
