Forever Young!!

-
I just celebrated my 26th Birthday [a wonderful one, I thank all my friends for the surprises, company and good wishes]. God!!! I have already lived a quarter of years, nearly half of  my life [average life of Nepalese is 67 as per some statistics by UNICEF], 4 yrs older than Mesut Oezil, the phenomenal player who helped Germany kick the ass of England in a recent World Cup encounter. Facts and figures really say I am getting older. Do I need to fuss over it? Actually I am not fussing over it, neither do I have any sad feeling that I am getting older. Some words from a popular number -something I really believe:

Coz there's no tomorrow just a picture perfect day
That last a whole lifetime and it never ends
Coz all we have to do is hit rewind
So let's just stay in the moment smoke some weed drink some wine
Reminisce talk some shit forever young is in your mind
Leave a mark they can't erase, neither space nor time
So when the director yells cut,
I'll be fine I'm forever young

Sometimes, I look back at my life –a real roller coaster ride. Different stages of life, some of the parts totally totally different from each others. Sometimes it seems to me I have lived multiple characters in my ONE life –something that makes me feel happy as I look back. One thing that, really make me feel that I am getting older, let me make it sound better –at least added some more digits to my age – is the change in things in life that make you feel happy. No doubt, at least for me meaning of happiness has changed a lot through the years, often defined by the different parameters of LIFE.

After seeing so many colors of LIFE, I feel blessed. I have lived my best days of life, so there is no point for me to regret. Now I might have just had the feeling of getting old, but someday I am sure I will be really old and I might as well accept it, my youth will have fled away never to return. Still I am sure I will be very content with that at the moment. With me I will have stories to tell, knowledge to share, moments to remember [to both smile and cry] and above all FRIENDS to turn back to the oldies.

Life is not always bed of roses or only a bush of throne. Its like SEASONS repeating itself though not with exact sequence of occurrences, say like randomly generated seasons defined by the supreme power that governs all form of LIFE. So, the best way to live life is to live as it comes and accept whatever comes by – anyway LIFE gotta go on!!!!. The best way to live it is to follow the way you want. Be satisfied with what comes and content with what you get – one can find ultimate happiness in SATSFACTION. Live your life as if you are going to die the next day, coz the next day when you look back you will have lived one more important day which will either bring smile or tears on your face – both of them are WORT it, coz deep inside you will feel at least you have done your best.

On celebrating my 26th I had told a friend of mine, god seems I am really getting older and she said ‘Comn’ we are like wine, older we become –better we will be’. I couldn't agree less, coz I know I am more content now with lots of memories, bit of knowledge :P and a handful of forever friends. I am sorry to myself coz I got the feeling that I am getting older but to all my friends I dedicate this song [Forever Young] by Rod Stewart
May the good Lord be with you 
 Down every road you roam 
 And may sunshine and happiness 
 surround you when you're far from home 
 And may you grow to be proud 
 Dignified and true 
 And do unto others 
 As you'd have done to you 
 Be courageous and be brave 
 And in my heart you'll always stay 
 Forever Young, Forever Young 
 Forever Young, Forever Young

A moment

A walk into the trees, enjoying the song of the bees Tap foot with chirping of birds and rustling of leaves Smiling the way the flowers bloom when sun shines A moment to forget the poor life full of care and tears Lie down on the meadows looking at the clear sky Feeling free as birds when I see a flock pass by Clouds appear to make faces of all people whom I love A moment to forget the poor life full of pain and goodbye Enjoying the games children play with laughter full of cheers Mother’s love in the cuddle, when one falls and breaks into tears Purest of all relations, nothing to ask for nothing to take A moment to forget the poor life full of compromises to make I find moment to appreciate a smile that begins in eyes Heart can feel warmth of love in hugs full of friendly ties Blissful stare in the reminiscences that turns into a long gaze A moment to forget the poor life full of twist and awful mazes A moment to forget the poor life full of twist and awful mazes! A moment to forg

Lost Traveler

-
As the sun sighs and slowly disappears, Smoke swirls and heavy smell of the weed, Recollecting a thousand lies and fate of time, To be forgotten with finished glasses of wine. Often, marred by the roads less traveled, Always, d iseased by fortunes misconstrued, He lives a life that doesn't exist, not even real, And drifts in silence, in a world so cold and lost. Confused over why he travelled all way till here, Whether to draw a smile or maybe drops of tear, Mistakes he has made plenty, including loving you, However hard he tries, forgiveness is always on due. Blurred ahead, but cleaner mark of where he had been, Fear runs down the spine, if he thinks of going back again, But he is not dead yet and he is not in the ground, Just a lost traveler, a lost traveler down that lost highway. .........counting the days but never to be found again! .........counting the days but never to be found again!! .........counting the days but never to be

Sometimes it sks badly..n sometimes it Rocks... But still Life has to go on ..just as this tree bears all weathers and goes on round n round for ages..until it finally dies...we need to keep our heart and spirit going unless it really stops beating :) 2/25/2009 3/22/2009 4/10/2009 5/15/2009 6/5/2009
