Yesterday, i went to see a family friend of mine. recently, they had welcomed a bundle of joy, in their family. Yes you guessed it right. a small baby, the most miraculous creation on this planet.

Before our meeting with this beautiful creation, we decided to give a small gift t him, a token of our love and affection to this little thing. so the hunt began, me and my mom decided tht we will search for an appropriate gift this evening. Once we had shopped for a good dress(My favourite pink coloured baba suit), the next thing we were looking for was a rattle. Since, the baby was only two months old, we did not expect it to be very responsive.when my mother was browsing through certain shelves in the mall, i happen to get lost in one part of the shop, (that i always manage to, dnt knw why), where they displayed all sort of stuffed toys………..gosh, one thing i always crave for….since the toys were displayed in big shelves and some were lying on the floor too…..i don’t know what took me over. there i was sitting on the floor, with jeans stretched in an unusual manner and i was cuddling all those teddy bear and dolls that were coming my way…….for a time i even forgot, what am i a grown up girl doing on the floor with these pretty things around me. Mom had to literally drag me out of that place.mom still things that, craving for a teddy hug displays an insecuer attitude within u!!!! don’t know the logic behid this. but yes, i go gaga over such toys……wish i had a BF who was more than willing to gift me stuffed toys for evry small reason….hhhhahahahahhahahaa

so, in continuation to our desperate hunt, we ended up purchasing a sweet doll. I know mom kept it locked in the almirah, because she was still not sure of my intentions.

Anyhow, we went to see teh baby next day. i was not expecting much from the trip. since, i was under the notion that babies at such a small age are quite bore. well, i went because i wanted to avoid a bore company alone at home, beacause i had already called all my friends and there was nothing much to do also.

as soon as we entered our friend’s house we were escorted to an inner room. and there he was, lying on the bed, pushing and throwing his hands in the most unusual mannner.mom, took him in his arms…….he was not beautiful, but the smile he displayed from ear to ear caught me offguard. automatically my hands stretched, and in a minute i was having that pretty thing in my arms. there he was fully activated, charged battery, who was passing all sorts of vibrations through my entire body. Perhaps, it was its innocence, charm, or its infectious enthusiasm in the eyes, (that i hardly expected from 2 months old infant) that made me experience a surge of happiness that i , for few months , was trying to create artificially. There i was standing in the middle of the room, charmed by this little charmer, who took my heart, in a sec………he was smiling in my eyes, and sometimes sucking the end of my dupatta, giving me some beautiful moments that i am penning down here.

well, can also say, in the end i was happy to part with that doll……because it was ultimately going to the one, who caught me unprepared!!!!!!

I can not keep the work of fiction in my hand down even for a minute. The piece of writing is not only exquisite, it casts a spell on your entire being. Yes, It is none other than Sarah Waters, the renowed British Novelist. She started creating her works from 1998. Since, then the peolpe have not stopped admiring her work. I have already completed three of her books, Tipping the Velvet, Affinity, and Fingersmith. Night Watch is the only one remaining now that i need to admire .

No wonder her books have been nominated for the prizes such as Orange prize, Man Booker prize. Whosoever has read her work once will surely fall in love with her story narration……..I look forward to reading more works from this great author. ………..may be you can say I am spellbound!!!!

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away.
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed.

If birds flying south is a sign of changes
At least you can predict this every year.
Love, you never know the minute it ends suddenly
I can’t get it to speak
Maybe finding all the things it took to save us
I could fix the pain that bleeds inside of me
Look in your eyes to see something about me
I’m standing on the edge and I don’t know what else to give.

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away.
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed.

How can I love you How can I love you How can I love you How can I love you . . . .
[ Do You Know lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]

If you just don’t talk to me, babe.

I flow through my act
The question is she needed
And decide all the man I can ever be.
Looking at the last 3 years like I did,
I could never see us ending like this.
Seeing your face no more on my pillow
Is a scene that’s never happened to me.
But after this episode I don’t see, you could never tell the next thing life could be

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away.
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed.

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away.
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed.

Do you know,
Do you know,
Do you know,

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away.
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed

“Love has earth to which she clings
With hills and circling arms about–
Wall within wall to shut fear out.
But thought has need of no such things,
For thought has a pair of dauntless wings.” ( Anonymous)

Beautiful………………..isn’t it!!!!!!

There is one more…………..,

Somewhere there’s someone who dreams of your smile,
and finds in your presence that life is worth while.
So when you are lonely, remember it’s true
Somebody somewhere is thinking of you.

- K. Blackburn –

Ever wondered what is life all about……….I will tell you……:)

” Be like a flowing river,

silent in the night,

Be not afraid of the dark,

if there are stars in the sky, reflect them back,

if there are clouds in the sky,

Remember, clouds like the river are water,

so, gladly reflect them too,

in your own tranquil depths….”……………Manuel Bandeira
