It did not happen my way

When things don't happen the way we desire,
Oft we find ourselves dismal and haywire,
Saddened by which we grumble and say,
It did not happen my way.

Greater our desires, greater our expectations,
More the anticipation, more the frustration,
And when we fail to meet our aspiration,
Delusion and depression is the precipitation.

But can we actually control things?
Mistaken are we about this as human beings.
Never can we fail, becomes our notion
Overwhelmed by the success of a promotion

Life is uncertain, who knows what may happen tomorrow,
Such is the nature of this mortal sorrow,
Where there can be no gain without pain,
Where there can be no sunshine without rain,
Where there can be no light without darkness,
Where there can be no happiness without sadness,...
There are two sides to everything,
Duality is the nature of universally everything.

Thus Life cannot be always our way,
Learn to recognize the good day and bad day,
Do not forget: Every dog has his day,
So don't complain, it did not happen my way.

How deadlines at work make us hyper...

Most of us who work in corporates, Get engaged in some or the other projects, Standing somewhere on the management ladder, Being an executive, manager or a director, Whether or not a fresher or a senior, Deadlines always make us hyper. When the deadlines are normally set by us, Seems like they can easily be met by us, But when the deadlines actually come near, Time is less we invariably fear. Busier we seem than ever before, Pressure takes a toll on us even more, Nightmares we get of our bosses shouting at us, Dire shall be consequences if the deadline is not met by us. Neither we relish food, nor we enjoy sleep, Work comes first is what we feel, Hostages we become within the confines of our office, Without meeting deadline, dare not we leave our office. Glued are our eyes to the computer screen, Our fingers busy tapping the keyboard unseen, Clicking of the mouse becomes a compulsion, Working for long hours becomes an obsession Just like time and tide wa

An inspirational poem

In this world, when you arrive, It's you alone, that all you know, It's you alone, who makes a cry, And it's you alone, who opens his eyes. Alone you learn to be alive. Of your own, you cry for thirst, And of your own, you cry for hunger. Alone, you learn, how to crawl, Alone, you learn, how to walk, And alone, you learn, how to talk. Alone, you know, that it's you alone. Alone, you are, when you need support, And alone, you are, when you need help. Alone, you are, when you suffer, And it's you alone, who does recover. Alone, you make lot of friends, And it's you alone, who loses them. Alone, you know, that you are not alone, And it's you alone, you know, you are alone. Lonely, you are born, And lonely, you die; Loneliness is something, you are born with, It's something you live with, And it's also something, you die with. Whether lonely or not, who is it, Who can do anything? Oh certainly, it's you alon

Universe is boundless

When I gaze at the night sky, and look at the celestial bodies, I invariably try to fathom, how was the universe created? Scientists have propounded the Big Bang theory, according to which the universe originated with a massive explosion of energy and matter, from an infinitesimal volume with extremely high density and temperature. Let us first try to define the Universe. As per a dictionary definition, universe is the totality of the known and supposed objects and phenomena throughout space. There are several phenomena in nature and the universe, that we get to observe, by virtue of our five senses of sight, taste, touch, hearing and smell. Universe is much beyond our sensory perceptions. We cannot define the universe in terms of time and finite parameters. Therefor I do not think it ever began with a Big Bang. I guess the scientists might have put forth that theory, as they observed the stars moving with great velocities, which could be a result of an explosion
