I re-discovered the essence of always trying and not giving up no matter how impossible or how unbearable or how different things turn out in the process. I figured that if you still have even a small fraction of your vision with which you set out to do what you are in the process of doing, it will turn out just like you thought and sometimes even better once you keep moving ahead with it. Perhaps I had to learn this in the simplest of tasks I did recently.Remember mom when I told you about the painting that sister wanted to me to draw for her - a garden full of flowers. Well, I attempted it, formed the base, painted some flowery shapes. It looked very promising in the beginning and I was already...

FEELING GOOD TODAY!
Posted by Ranjan | at 11:05 AM | 0 commentsI guess I was really low when I wrote my previous post. But I am feeling quite good today. Must be the fact that I was working yesterday and it helped me get some fresh perspective.Disappointments and frustrations do tend to come along in life but the point is to keep on moving ahead, no matter what. It's like walking back home or to a destination in some way. There are days when the weather is pleasant, the traffic is less, people you see seem happy and cheerful. Then are days when you are soaking wet in the rain or soaking wet in sweat, muddy roads and irritated people, every step is a feat in itself. And on both occasions, I have always moved along at the same pace, whether or not my foot...

THINGS ARE NOT CLEAR, MOM
Posted by Ranjan | at 3:33 PM | 0 commentsThings are not clear, mom. I have been in this phase for sometime now. For most part I think it's the fear. Now that the problem has been identified another problem is nagging me: what to do next? How do we go about trying to solve the problem? I feel this sense of complete numbness, as if I am paralysed and cannot even move an inch. I have ideas and thoughts that hover around my mind and they seem pretty good, if only they were acted upon and executed. An invisible chain seems to be tied all around me restricting any movements at all. So, all that I am left with is BIG and GRAND ideas, mocking at me all the time.I don't know, mom. I feel I can do it. But next moment I am doubting again. I don't...

THE WAY YOU LOVED, MOM
Posted by Ranjan | at 1:12 AM | 0 commentsI never really got to talk to you about love and relationships. The only thing remotely concerning love or more appropriately a crush, was when you caught me writing a love letter to my classmate in sixth standard! I also knew you had an inkling about my going around with a certain Miss A during my last year in school. But we didn't really discuss about it. I guess we never really connected in those terms at least for the most part of our relationship, during my school and early part of college life. When we did talk about anything and everything, well almost, I was single (as I was for most of my life).My perception of what love is and how it makes one feel had a drastic change after you passed...
