Imprints

... But there will still be moments in future
When a stranger would look back and say
Those imprints that you see on time
Are traces that she left on her way.

Time is all powerful. I have always wondered and even complained at the omnipotence of time. Our inability of stopping it, holding on to cherished moments, fast forwarding the ones we dont like, reviewing the ones we missed...

But may be its sometimes the omnipotence of time that actually make the moments worthwhile. If we could do all those things that I mentioned above, we would have taken time for granted, we would have never strived to make each coming moment better than the one that has left. I always wanted to think that life has to be lived in the present but I do not regret to keep away some of my precious moments for remembering the past or dreaming the future. And probably, the share that I keep away is actually a large one :D.

When we look at past, what comes to our mind are the marks that time has left on its way, the traces that can be viewed only individually. Sometimes I have wondered if it was possible to leave a trace on time - just like that. It has been a sense of wonder only...

Some things take time to sink in. I am still trying to grab my piece of cake and realise how large it is. Life keeps moving, and it better do so for when it stops at times, the moments become too large to hold. But once in a while we all look forward to some milestones in our journey - some just to help us look back and some to which even stragers can look back.

[I don't know how much of this post made sense to you but if it did not, I am sorry. You see by now you must have come to know that my cerebral journey can often lead you to some absolutely strange and insane lanes :D ]

Just another year

This is my second new year after I shifted back here. Last time went in a blur. I sat in a corner, remembered the last new year and cried. ...
