At my own pace

I laze and relax,


I wonder and ponder



my mind thought ......

about the things that my brain couldn't sought

and my heart assured me

that my soul is free ...its not caught.



I tasted the sea and the droplets of rain

I felt the satin and tattered clothes covering the pain

Felt the heat of concrete high rise mansions

And swayed to sleep under the thatched roof built of passion

Some complained of having plenty

Some rejoiced when their plates were not empty

I pitied the happiness

and the thing which made me laugh was the sadness



I am neither cheerful nor poignant ,

Neither hollow nor expectant,

They label me a loser, incapable of winning the race

Isn't it ? In the end.... winners and losers will mix with the ether leaving no trace



Till then I let my body laze and relax.........

Let my soul wonder and ponder.........

Book Review - Ten Essentials to the blueprint of Happiness for writersmelon

10 essentials to the blueprint of happiness, the name easily discloses to you the intent it carries between the covers. The writer – Bhanu Arora pens his personal thoughts and everyday stories into ten chapters each taking the reader towards his belief system around happiness, which is usually accepted & adopted by the society at large. Anxiety over career progression, office gossips, self-identity, money matters, relationships, travel, leading a dream, believing in supreme power and many other aspects of our daily lives has been painted in a lucid manner by the author and hence makes it a very easy read. Though the author maintains a third person point of narration, but reader can sense his voice across the chapters as there is no single protagonist across all the pages of this self-help book. Each chapter deals with a specific issue actioned through set of characters lightly sketched and carries a self-help mantra as a possible solution. Portrayal of current scenarios &

lazy afternoon naps

Stretch a bit ,feel your tummy full , switch off the TV, snuggle in to the mattress, take a light bed sheet, turn to side and close your eyes for that lazy afternoon nap. Afternoon naps - the bargained thing for the pay cheque are the best way to relax your body and soul. A hour nap energises the body more than the sleep of 8 hours at night. Look around - all will be doing the same be it a hawker spread over like a log on his hand trolley or street dogs taking few winks in shade . Kids also disappear during this time of the day to return back to streets with more vigour. Enough - Got to get back to work , Boss calling ! office goers need to wait till the life clock strikes 60 .
