The Messiah July 19, 2009
A moment of peace so cherished,
A moment of hate withheld;
A cry from the darkness,
And war was rebelled.
She stood alone, shuddering,
Soldiers marched past by;
I held her in my arms,
She watched her family die.
Nothing else mattered now,
Even the smoke billowing;
Church bells ringing nearby,
Nor the doom impending.
Seeking safety I ran about,
Her cry still afresh;
Praying for forgiveness,
For her wounded flesh.
The guilt of the war,
A burden on my chest;
She may be the enemy,
She’s human, I protest.
A loving mother took her in,
Had lost her son that season;
Oh man is too vain to realize,
Every life has a reason.
A moment of peace so cherished,
A moment of hate withheld;
A cry from the darkness,
And war was rebelled.
She stood alone, shuddering,
Soldiers marched past by;
I held her in my arms,
She watched her family die.
Nothing else mattered now,
Even the smoke billowing;
Church bells ringing nearby,
Nor the doom impending.
Seeking safety I ran about,
Her cry still afresh;
Praying for forgiveness,
For her wounded flesh.
The guilt of the war,
A burden on my chest;
She may be the enemy,
She’s human, I protest.
A loving mother took her in,
Had lost her son that season;
Oh man is too vain to realize,
Every life has a reason.

Make your dreams into realities July 16, 2009
“The poorest man in the world is the man without a dream.The most frustrated man in the world is the man with a dream that never becomes reality”, someone once said. A very true statement indeed, especially in this marathon that we all call life, where society and environment mould a person more than anything else, how unfortunate!
Generations have lived, died and been forgotten, without disturbing the fabric of history. Then there are those who lived their dreams, did what they wanted to and made a niche for them in peoples hearts for eternity. These are the people who took to the skies when everyone said they couldnt, scaled new heights, crossed continents and defied preconcieved notions all the while being ridiculed on the way. Yet, they stuck to their dreams and their desires and made their way to eternal glory.
The moment we stop listening to that voice inside us, the moment we ignore that rush of adrenalin, we’ve committed a murder. A murder of that legend that resides in each and everyone of us. Do you think that the world can tell you what you can and cannot do? (Well, facebook helps sometimes though!), but NO, it can’t. Its you, you decide your limits and being the most developed creation on the planet, you HAVE no limits!
Did the courage of Amelia Earhart even flicker for a single moment when she took on the impossible task of crossing the Atlantic? No, because she had faith in herself and an undying motivation toward her goal. And today we remember her as one of the greatest women pilots ever to grace the history of aviation. Think of it this way, this life is our very own journey across the atlantic, challenging, exciting and rewarding, but only if we follow our instincts and give life to our dreams.
If we, for one moment delve into our own self concious and ask ourselves, Is our true aim in life a degree? To slog at it for precious years? Do you think you couldn’t be happy without a degree? No, for in every one of us there resides our true self, locked behind a mask that we want the world to see. In some of us theres a poet, waiting to burst out his creativity, a painter, his paintbrush devoid of colour, a ballet dancer who’s been denied her dancing shoes or in some cases an overweight couch potato who just can’t reach the damn fridge!
Does a rank or percentage decide your fate? dictate your being happy with your life? the answer lies with oursleves, the way we think. To never let society bog you down and deny you freedom to follow your dreams makes us a true superhero, and NOT the one who wears his underpants on the outside! To look beyond the illusions that have clouded our vision and held us to the ground requires an effort to make our dreams into realities, then only can we break the shakles of monotony, grow our wings and let our dreams take flight.

Time And Tears July 9, 2009
Time And Tears
The distant sound of the chilly wind,
Falls but softly on the dreamy mind;
Wakens my senses, and confounds,
A season bids goodbye.
Time we cared less for,
Stares contemptuously;
Sweet memories of friendship,
An obscure setting sun.
Had I not seen it come, I ask,
Every good thing ends they said;
The chirpy birds now silent,
I gaze upon the mellow moonlight.
The arrogance of life,
Hurts the softened heart;
Loved and cared for,
Still hard to part.
The icy messenger now cries loud,
Bits and pieces in its wake;
Dark grey skies the setting,
For one last wish to make.
Drops of tears stream down,
Ay comrade of mine;
Those bittersweet memoirs,
Inked in scrolls of time.

Resurrection Of Humanity
|
The abundant sorrow that he doth posses,
His arid heart but must sincerely confess-
how deep into chasms of darkness he drove?
How lured he was into the dark wizard’s cove?
|
The sleeping penury, now , that must but erupt,
To save souls as his-cease Sin’s life abrupt.
To fan out gentle winds of joy and laughter.
Eroding away castles of chaos and disaster.
|
Scores of Mankind, turning now a blind eye;
to that flickering candle – Deceit, melting to die.
Ardent cries fondly bade that gangster adieu.
The sky no longer murky but a distinct mellow hue.
|
The phoenix rises, never again to return to dust.
Never again, to re-enter into dark realms of lust.
Peace rippling out through the waters of humanity.
Brothers striding in tandem- Human and Humanity

Mobile firm asks people to apply for top job by text July 7, 2009
A mobile firm has come up with a novel way of finding an employee, it asks people to apply for a top job by text.
All those applying for the job need to express themselves in only 40 words, to show they are right for the marketing post at content provider Teimlo.
Even though most messages started with ‘Help me, I’m broke!’, the firm said they were optimistic about finding a suitor.

Japanese railway workers face enforced ‘smile scans’ July 7, 2009
Railway workers in Japan are facing enforced “smile scans” every morning in a bid to boost their customer services, says a report.
According to the Mainichi Daily News, more than 500 staff at Keihin Electric Express Railway are subjected to daily face scans by “smile police” bosses, reports the Telegraph.
The “smile scan” software, developed by the Japanese company Omron, produces a sweeping analysis of a smile based on facial characteristics, from lip curves and eye movements to wrinkles.
After scanning a face, the device produces a rating of 0 to 100 depending on the estimated value of the fulfilled potential of a person’s biggest smile.
So basically, a rating of 100 would indicate the creepiest worker!
