Just three things




The house we live in now a days is a rented one.We have been living here from the last 6 months.

My husband arranged it right before our marriage.As he didn't know anyone in the city,it was easy for a innocent soul like him ;-) to be succumbed by prevailing cleverness.the land lord didn't tell him about the fault of the house at that time nor my Husband 's eyes could manage to see anything.Well in short the house was a totally ruin.I made it suitable for living.

When i was decorating the drawing room,there was a corner that was really problematic for me.wall was not in good condition so i could not leave it deserted.And then i filled it with

1>a lamp
2>floral arrangement
3>a painting

now its quite a nice slot.

after having decorated it ,a thought came across my mind,three things are essential for decorating a life.

1>an enlightened mind (A lamp)
2>a heart of a artist ;soft and sensitive ( paint your own masterpiece )
3>freshness in conduct (like flowers)

believe me your life will be all set like my corner.:-)

Your home is beautiful. Me too looking forward to decorate my home. It gives a different kind of feeling, doesn't it? A sense of belonging. :)

Arooj,

HOME is what lady of the house makes. It is her involvement and thinking which makes all the difference. Good show.

Take care

I would also add respectfully: ease of spirit and soul, the comfort chair.

Looks very cozy; hand me a book to read there. What would it be?

I like your take on things. Funny how sometimes we do things that mean so much more than the immediate ramifications.

The perfect corner to relax.
That flooring.... is it a carpet?
Looks great.

This looks like a very comfortable and beautiful corner. A perfect place to unwind! And the co-relation to the life is so very apt and true!!

i saw a poem online and thought i'd post here:

"Hydrabad's been living in fear
decided to take back life
reveal the true me/need
to give myself to the gods for blessing
have been a very bad boy
too many feelings/cannot be real/when it has too much pain/
only the unloved hate
i want to fight for liberty, life, love
i want to create a child, an offspring, to live on
pass on my genes"

then the poem book analysis
but the books have been so unkind
to my family, whom i left out of this *the single greatest pain of my life to cut myself from my family
i have tortured myself for many a years and i hate myself and working towards finding a new way to find love in life, and i want to contribute again
maybe 10 years? is the time it will take to regain some of what has been lost
but i want to become part of the whole again, to give life and be life giving and real and to accept the past, the pain and trauma of the past, what i have bottled up for so long that i cannot possibly imagine addressing everything but it is true, the past is real and it has been very real for me and now i am just trying to move on with my life"

(some quotes taken out of the book and others from the transcript

Where is the climax of life?

Image
For every reader the climax of the story is the most interesting phase. This very point always remains surrounded by bulk of conflicts and burning problems, still we feel attracted ourselves towards climax. Apparently it shows that man feels conformable among challenges, but reality is something else. We want climax to get appeared because we want things to get settled. We want them to arrange themselves in rather smooth manner. We always expect that after this climax, all conflicts will be removed, problems will be solved, controversies will be erased, and exactly in the same way we want them to. But, is it really happen with the climax of life? I should have rather asked whether there exists any climax in life or not. in this real drama of life ,one can never be able to get stuck with a single climax and hope of the swaying peace afterwords, as life is an amalgam of climaxes .It deals with one conflict and keeps ready to offer another. When I was a child, I was told that after ...

Time has changed!

My often depressed looking cousin was looking more depressed last week. He was wondering around without any purpose. Then open his cupboard, and started searching for something. After a while he was sitting in front of me looking inside in his wallet and counting money inside. I asked why he is so depressed and looking at his wallet in this way. He said that few weeks back his girl friend’s friend got a latest mobile. I asked that what it has to do with him. He said that after having a look of that mobile, his girl friend is demanding for the same model as a gift on her upcoming birthday. The cell did cost pocket money of my cousin of five months (as he is a mere student so far). I just tapped on his shoulders (as a person with light pocket is not supposed to more than that) and came out of his room. So this is the mode of action of our relationships. There was a time when for a beloved a single rose presented with love and sincerity was more than everything. A lover spen...

Displacement

     I just come back from my father's home.Yes;my FATHER'S HOME. Sounds weird ,a home that has been mine from the last 26 years now it is related to me just because it is owned by my father. It happens all the time,with every girl /woman.(technically a married girl is a woman yet not ready to leave the title of girl) ). But now it happened to me and I experienced how it felt.The place was like before,dressing table,book shelf, cupboard,kitchen,etc etc etc.but my things were not there.dressing table missing the shades of lipstick i usually put on as it is in the use of my sister.Besides this i have brought all the stuff with me at he time of wedding.the book shelf was getting deserted day by day as during every visit i bring one or two with me. kitchen is not ion way I used to keep it.salt,chili powder,garam masalah, turmeric powder,every thing has changed its place.ma...
