A Reason to Pray...




My search goes on, seemingly vain…
Traumatic times are a regular phase.
 For at each turn, I behold only pain.
 Oh why should my people see such days?
I see my land bathed in innocents' blood…
I fear her future is decreed thus bleak.
 As I await His light – the cleansing flood. 
 I remain entranced by this surreal mystique.
I hear a moan, I hear a cry…
The land is too blood-soaked to till.
 As we wait for it all to dry; 
 The twisted folk deem more blood, to spill!
What times are these, which we live in…?
Beneath clouds so dark and skies so grey.
 I listen’d to tales of the Devil’s grin…
 And unto Frey, did I turn to pray.
O Lord! May Thy rule stay Divine…
For our hours on ye Earth are entirely Thine.
 I pray – as this sun sets in decline, 
It brings peace upon this beloved land of mine!

An epidemic of loneliness: Why are we lonely in a world so full?

In the town of Havenwood, an unusual epidemic takes over—not one of physical illness, but an outbreak of loneliness. When Lina, a fiery yet secretly tender-hearted skeptic of romance, meets Quinn, a free-spirited artist questioning the same ideas, they are forced to confront whether real connection lies beyond romantic love or if they are truly doomed to solitude. It was a crisp day in Havenwood, and the sky was brooding—dark clouds laced with impatient energy before a thunderstorm, as if even the heavens felt the town’s growing melancholy. It was not the kind of town you would expect to be cloaked in loneliness. Stone cottages lined the narrow, winding roads, and the trees had that sage-like stillness that you only see in stories and dreams. I hadn’t been here long when the problem struck me like a slap in the face: everyone was obsessed with finding The One, as if every single person was but half a person, wandering through life like a lost sock in search of its pair. How did a town ...

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...
