Possibility - Lykke Li Video and Lyrics

Resh dedication to me - 16 May, 2011

There's a possibility
There's a possibility
All that I had was all I'm gonna get
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

There's a possibility
There's a possibility
All I gonna get is gone with your step
All I gonna get is gone with your stare
So tell me when you hear my heart stop
You're the only one that knows
Tell me when you hear my silence
There's a possibility I would't know
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Know that when you leave
Know that when you leave
By blood and by me, you walk like a thief,
By blood and by me, and I fall when you leave
So tell me when you hear my heart stop
You're the only one that knows
Tell me when you hear my silence
There's a possibility I wouldn't know
So tell me when my sigh is over
You're the reason why I'm closed
Tell me when you hear me falling
There's a possibility it wouldn't show
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

By blood and by me, and I'll fall when you leave.
By blood and by me, I follow your lead.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

ENDLESS LOVE (Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie)

My love, there's only you in my life,
The only thing that's right.
My first love, you're every breath that I take,
You're every step I make.
And I, I want to share, all my love with you,
No one else will do.
And your eyes, they tell me how much you care.
Oh yes, you will always be, my endless love.

Two hearts, two hearts that beat as one.
Our lives have just begun.
Forever, I'll hold you close in my arms,
I can't resist your charm.
My love, I'll be a fool, for you I'm sure,
You know I don't mind.
Cause you, you mean the world to me.
Oh, I know I've found in you, my endless love.

And love, I'll be that fool, for you, I'm sure.
You know I don't mind.
And yes, you'll be the only one.
Cause no one can deny,
This love I have its fine.
I'll give it all to you,
My love, my love, my endless love.

Uncained Melody - The Righteous Brothers

Incomparable!

Oh, my love
my darling
I've hungered for your touch
a long lonely time
and time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much
are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea,
to the sea
to the open arms of the sea
lonely rivers sigh 'wait for me, wait for me'
I'll be coming home wait for me

Tu Hi Haqeeqat Lyrics
Tu hi haqeeqat khwaab tu
Dariya tu hi pyaas tu
Tu hi dil ki bekarari
Tu sukoon tu sukoon
Jaoon main ab jab jiss jagah
Paoon main tujhko uss jagah
Saath hoke na ho tu hai
Rubaroo rubaroo

Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera

Aa tujhe inn baahon mein bhar ke
Aur bhi kar loon main kareeb
Tu juda ho toh lage hai
Aata jaata har pal ajeeb
Iss jahaan mein hai aur na hoga
Mujhsa koi bhi khush naseeb
Tune mujhko dil diya hai
Main hoon tere sabse kareeb

Main ti toh tere dil mein hoon
Main hi toh saanson mein basoon
Tere dil ki dhadkanon mein
Main hi hoon main hi hoon

Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera

Ohhooo…
Kab bhala ab ye waqt guzre
Kuch pata chalta hi nahi
Jabse mujhko tu mila hai
Hosh kuch bhi apna nahi
Uff ye teri palken ghani si
Chaanv inki hai dilnasheen
Ab kise dar dhoop ka hai
Kyunki hain ye mujhpe bicchi

Tere bina na saans loon
Tere bina na main jiyun
Tere bina na ek pal bhi
Reh sakoon reh sakoon

Tu hi haqeeqat khwaab tu
Dariya tu hi pyaas tu
Tu hi dil ki bekarari
Tu sukoon tu sukoon

Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera
Tu humsafar tu humkadam tu humnawah mera

The Oak and the Cyprus

Once there was a Cyprus plant and an Oak plant who fell in love. They wanted to be as close to each other as possible. So they decide to root themselves next to each other in a lovely cliff overlooking the valley. They were literally next to each other. They lived happily for two years. Both trees grew up fast and became big giant trees. The Oak Tree and the Cyprus Tree are both huge trees which need a lot of Diameter at the top to get the maximum sunlight and to grow big, strong and healthy. Unfortunately their growth was soon stunted because the Cyprus tree did not get enough sunlight under the Oak tree, it became mal nourished and pale. The Oak tree did not get enough nutrients from its roots because the Cyprus was taking most of the nutrients. It became scrawny and hollow. Both used to fall sick often. Depression, Hypo Thyroidism, Cold, cough, fever. Their immune system was compromised. Each tree expected the other to take care of it. The other tree would get angry as it was sick itself.

Soon the trees started blaming each other for their condition. If Only you were not dominating above me all the time, taking away all my sunlight? If Only you did not keep eating all the time and left me with some thing to eat and drink from the ground? They started fighting, they could not tolerate each other anymore. They could not move away because they were trees and struck to the ground. Life was miserable. They hated each other and just wanted to die and get it over with. Everyday waking up next to each other was horrible. It felt like a prison, unable to escape, unable to die they lived in misery for many years. They were angry at everything around them. Their behavior was different with their relatives and friends and even in office. Life seemed filled with misery and sadness.

One night there was a huge storm, rain poured and loosened the ground. Thunder hit the ground. The earth shook and there were earth quakes. The Cyprus soon could not stand, it fell down in a big heap. The whole root was ripped off of the ground. The Oak suddenly felt terrible depression. He hated the Cyprus presence so close, but could not bear to have her die. He prayed for a miracle to save the Cyprus. The Rain poured and swept the huge uprooted tree down the valley. The Oak tried to stop her from falling down. It tried desperately to hold on to the massive Oak tree but could not. The Cyprus fell down the cliff. Fortunately it fell roots down and upright. Many roots were broken, but many survived. The Cyprus was almost on the verge of dying but managed to hold on.

Months went by the Oak tree was down and depressed at the loss of his beloved. The Cyprus was recovering however. After 2 more years, the Cyprus was growing at an incredible pace much bigger and stronger than ever. The Oak too without another massive tree next to it was growing to be a strong large tree. Soon the Cyprus grew over the cliff face and could see the Oak tree at the top of the cliff. It called out but the Oak could not hear. After some more time the Cyprus grew over the cliff and the Oak could clearly see the Cyprus. Their branches were almost touching. They hugged and kissed like long lost lovers. They fell in love all over again. It was as if the fights and hateful words had not happened at all. The Cyprus would send squirrels to tickle the Oak. The Oak would shower the Cyprus with Flowers. They sang and danced in the wind. They got wet in the rain and feasted the bright sunlit days. They wrote poems and love letters to each other. They dedicated Bollywood songs to each other. They were never more happy in their lives. They were very healthy and would breath deeply for many hours at a stretch. Life was full of joy and energy. All the others around them wanted to be with them, borrow their energy. The Two lovers gladly helped but knew not to expect anything from anybody, not even from each other.

They realized, that being close enough is crucial but being too close is deadly. This way they lived happily for a very long time.

Bhula Do

Good old times, the small cigarette shop in front of NIIT, The ever grinning Prashanth always first to arrive, Rajesh and his gleaming bike, Charlie and his beat up TVS, and 4 broke guys ;-)

Reminds me of "Bhula Do" by Reath and Band for some reason, may be because of the video where a bunch of college kids are making music - carefree

Bhula do bhula do woh baten purani

kache sub dhaage hain
yeh buand hain rait ke
manzil na sathi hai
chalta hoon main bekhabar

jo humko satati rahi

wo……….hoho..hoooooooooo

Longing

Longing is the core of mystery.
Longing itself brings the cure.
The only rule is, Suffer the pain.

Your desire must be disciplined,
and what you want to happen
in time, sacrificed.

Shantaram

Wikipedia Article

Shantaram is a 2003 roman à clef written by Gregory David Roberts, a convicted Australian bank robber and heroin addict who escaped from Pentridge Prison and fled to India where he lived for 10 years.

befriends local artists and actors landing him roles as an extra in several Bollywood movies, and is recruited by the Bombay underworld for various criminal operations, including drug and weapons trade. Lin eventually lands in Bombay's Arthur Road Prison, where he endures many beatings and other physical and mental abuse by guards, while existing under extremely squalid conditions, along with hundreds of other inmates. However, thanks to the protection of Afghani mafia don "Abdel Khader Khan", Lin is eventually released, and works in black market currency exchange and passport forgery. Having travelled as far as Africa on trips commissioned by the mafia, Lin later goes to Afghanistan to smuggle weapons for mujahideen freedom fighters in Afghanistan. When his mentor Khan is killed, Lin realizes he became everything he grew to loathe and falls into depression after he returns. He decides that he must fight for what he believes is right, and build an honest life. The story ends with him planning to go to Sri Lanka which lays the premise for the sequel to this book.

Peter Drucker's advice on a strength-based approach

"Use feedback analysis to identify your strengths. Then go to work on improving your strengths. Identify and eliminate bad habits that hinder the full development of your strengths. Figure out what you should do and do it. Finally, decide what you should not do."

Love is all around you

Song: Love Is All Around
Album: Best Of Troggs

I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes.
Well love is all around me, and so the feeling grows.
It´s written on the wind, it´s everywhere I go.
So if you really love me, come on and let it show.

You know I love you, I always will.
My mind's made up by the way that I feel,
there´s no beginning, there´ll be no end
cause on my love you can depend.

I see your face before me as I lay on my bed
I kinda get to thinking, of all the things you said.
You gave your promise to me, and I gave mine to you.
I need someone beside me in everything I do.

You know I love you...........(etc)

It´s written on the wind..........(etc)

come on and let it show
come on and let it show
come on and let it show

Leave me in this Bliss

R on 5th July 2008

myfirst page in the book(Journal) will have this :) :)

Every time I look at you

my heart skips a beat

I wonder if you know, my love,

that my heart is at your feet

I leave it there for you to do

whatever that you wish

You could take my heart,

and love me,

Or just leave me in this bliss

Three Oddest Words

Poem by wislawa_szymborska Polish poet, essayist and translator. Awarded the 1996 Nobel Prize in Literature.

When I pronounce the word Future,
the first syllable already belongs to the past.
When I pronounce the word Silence,
I destroy it.
When I pronounce the word Nothing,
I make something no nonbeing can hold.

If I Had My Life to Live Over

by Erma Bombeck
(Written after she found out she was dying from cancer*) From email — April 21, 2000

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren’t there for the day.
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.
I would have talked less and listened more.
I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.
I would have eaten the popcorn in the “good” living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.
I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.
I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.
I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains.
I would have cried and laughed less while watching television, and more while watching life.
I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn’t show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.
Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I’d have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.
When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, “Later. Now go get washed up for dinner.”
There would have been more “I love you’s.” More “I’m sorry’s.”
But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute… look at it and really see it… live it… and never give it back.
Stop sweating the small stuff. Don’t worry about who doesn’t like you, who has more, or who’s doing what.
Instead, let’s cherish the relationships we have with those who DO love us.
Let’s think about what God HAS blessed us with.
And what we are doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally, as well as spiritually.
Life is too short to let it pass you by.
We only have one shot at this and then it’s gone.

I hope you all have a blessed day.
