“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”

A Beautiful World

I am sure you must got this incredible feeling at times when life seems beautiful without any specific reason.. a certain tangible freshness in the air.. bright azure skies .. when no challenge seem unsurmountable.. when you feel like smiling without a reason.. when you hum a tune as you walk.. cheerful thoughts accompanying you..


A couple of days ago i was listening to a song - 'Gurus of Peace', which had incredibly meaningful words.. n thats when it took over me... the same feeling.. the same rapture.. i was wrapped in a soft quilt made of peace, joy, satisfaction, comfort, assurance, love.. a blissful experience..


A few lines I particularly remember are:



Doori kyon dilon mein rahe

faasle kyon badhte rahe

Pyaari hai zindagi hai pyaara jahaan

Rishte badi mushkilon sebante hai yahaan pe lekin

tootne ke liye bas ek hi lamha


And so passionate was the effect of these words on me that i picked up the phone and started calling up old friends with whom i hadnt spoken with in a long time.. recollecting old memories.. old jokes..and to top it all ...it rained.. silent drops of water falling from the skies :)


Life is good :)
