Stand for yourself

No'thing' would be alright unless you take charge of setting it right!!
Time will do the job.....no, it is going to take it's own span, may be a lifespan!! They say 'patience is the key', 'every dog has it's day', 'wait for your turn'!! I think patience is the only virtue and time is the only scale that are highly abused by using them for rationalizing our in'ability', shifting the focus and finally shutting up from the imaginary 'worst-case scenarios' or 'disruptions to peace'!!

People would help set them.....no, no one has the time to think of you or your problems or your concerns, as they are busy in their own lives. They can't go beyond the smiling face or the superficial conversations and do the things for you!! It is always the calculation.....'in what way am I concerned with this', 'so what would I get back', 'I'm safe....so, better not get into the rut'!!!

Don't we get fed up of these oppressive band-aids that we use to close the cracks, and feel like yelling out into the open no-man's space?? Patience, time and people only sound good to the brain to keep the things going, but the heart is broken and still yearns for the therapy. So, realize that the 'thing' in no'thing' includes your heart!!

Gather the courage to speak out (not shout) when things are not going right!! Time is uncertain and unpredictable!! After the delay, you might not even care for the things that bothered, irked or hurt you once!! But remember, by voicing them then and there, you are building a security gate not only for yourselves, but also the others in similar condition and giving them the boldness!!  No one is standing in your shoes. Everyone is busy polishing their own rusty ones!!

My Darling!!

Every time I prayed for happiness,
I got back a happy smile!!
Every time I felt guilty of my fit of anger,
I got back a friendly smile!!
Every time I woke up to the terror of a hectic day,
I got back a hopeful smile!!
Every time I thought of the loss of my father,
I got back a reassuring smile!!
Every time I had the pressure of a deadline,
I got back an encouraging smile!!
Every time I was exhausted of hard times,
I got back a cheerful smile!!
Every time I wanted to give up and walk away,
I got back an affectionate smile!!
Eleven years of the courtship has been a vibgyor of emotions for me,
And the ups and downs were crests and troughs on my profile you could see!!
While all the colors, waves and sharp lines are always rounded off into a curves,
And yours is a nice rainbow of wonderful smiles that would calm all my nerves!!
