Finally! When it Pours ...

I am not much of a rain lover but I can't help it when it rains especially when I was dying with extreme humidity in a new place. It seemed like the dark black clouds had forgotten their way to Delhi and when they finally arrived, I was awakened from my sleep by the sound of big raindrops falling on the floor just outside my room. My first thought was, "So finally, it pours on J.K. Rowling's birthday! Bless her." And with my room mates having a peaceful sleep, I had the moment to myself which resulted in the following few lines... ;-)

As I wake up early in the morning

I hear the raindrops crashing on the floor

I smile and rejoice with the very thought

Finally, it's pouring as I run past the door

That moment of happiness is not explainable

when you witness the the first rain of monsoon

but the experience that I have is much better

as I feel my first rain in a place unknown

The anger and frustration of last night is now gone

not with the sleep but with the feel of the drops

I smile and smile and smile to myself

as my long awaited wish is now granted

Today when I would step on the road

I would not like the dirt that flows

But I throw the thought away

As for now, I have this moment to myself

Tip ! Tip ! Tip ! The rain cries

As it falls on the earth away from the sky

In my palm, I catch a few drops

And preserving them forever is my only thought

As long as I have the vision of the rain

in my mind, my heart will remain blessed

with a cheerful laugh on my face

I look forward to the rainy day that awaits...

Leukemia... Not Just a Disease!

People who have not suffered from leukemia think it is a deadly disease, obviously they’re right and for people who come to know that they’re suffering from leukemia are most of the times devastated, provided they know what leukemia is! And as far as my reaction is concerned…well then I was not in a state of shock because then I just knew I had some kind of a problem in my blood and I did not even know leukemia is blood cancer. It was 6 months after my treatment started that I came to know what Leukemia is…Thanks to my Grandfather! Even then I wasn’t upset much, probably just a bit, as I knew I am going to be fine. For me, Leukemia was never just a disease, when I say never I mean it. It has given a meaning to my life. My stay in CMC, Vellore and my Leukemia has taught me a lot of things which some people fail to learn and realize in their life time. Here are six of my realizations: There is no bigger exam than LIFE itself - Life is the exam where we don’t k

An Empath’s World: The House In the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune

When identity politics begins to seem overwhelming you enough to want to get away from it entirely, the go-to book is The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. It’s a go-to book on any bad day when hope seems too far away, life doesn’t make much sense, meaninglessness reigns, and peace is forgotten. To me, it was a return to the real world, a world I had shut myself away from because it seemed too cruel and hopeless to change. It was a resurrection of faith in kindness.

Why am I Single? ? ?

Because I have built walls around my heart. So even if someone starts getting close to me they cannot penetrate through the walls as I have used Ambuja cement. [:-P] And if by any chance I get a proposal, I am angry about it. So you see, NO chance! Because I cannot imagine falling in love, not that it is something to imagine but still ‘Me in Love' is the joke of my life and I can really laugh about it for hours. In fact I have been laughing for a long while now. [Hopeless Romantic of all times.] Because even though it was for a short time period but I had the best relationship which had no demands, no expectations, and no complaints. When they started arising, the relationship ended. [:-P] Because I cannot tolerate any kind of dominance and the ones I see these days, ‘Why do you upload your photo on FB’ ‘Deactivate your account’ ‘You can’t talk to other guys’ ‘you can’t click a photo with them because you’re with me’ 'blah blah blah' are simply
