Inner Voice

Days come and go
Dreams wither and threaten
Smiles elude and deceive

I keep fighting the lump in my throat,
I keep pushing the thoughts
Alas!!! It is happening again…
Falling into the clutches of boredom,
I am losing my sanity…

There is this voice in me
That keeps whispering “its ok”…
How will it know that its not…
“Keep fighting” it says, “not a form that it is, to fight”, I say
“Keep Hoping”, it says, “hope for what?”, I say
“Keep Dreaming”, it says… “There you go…”, I say
“Keep Smiling”, it says, “yeah, sure!!!!!”, I say
“Catch it”, it says, and throws a smile… I do…
And here I am, with a smile on my face…
Fresh and raring to go…

“Thank you dear voice”, I say, … “ I cannot hear you”, it shouts…
I smile and I say it again…”thank you”
An echo comes back… “Arise, awake and stop not until the goal is reached…”

World Cup, and an enthusiast...

With just a week b4 India plays its first match in the world cup, just like many ICT ardent lovers, am looking forward for the game... Raring for some action.... waiting for some good cricket... Am I expecting India to win????

Well,.... I am a fan of cricket, and the team has been a huge inspiration to me over the years... but I believe that it is just a sport n not a nations pride or passion... I am ardent admirer of Dravid... who inspired me many-a-time in the tough times, ... Made me look into myself for that inner strength n motivation to reach my goals..., in fact, if I fail to put-in my 100% effort to reach my targets, I am so ashamed to say that I am an admirer of Dravid… n I would be lying if I say I am not expecting something from him n his team... I am expecting them to play their heart-out... they r wearing their heart on their sleeves, n playing for a nation of billion cricket lovers, probably the only nation where cricketers are GODs... though I cannot comprehend why... I mean... there are a bunch of sports out there n bunch of fine, talented youngsters performing in various activities reaching the hilt, putting India on the map..... so what is so special about this sport, that ticks young n old alike? Anywaz, with entire nation going gaga over this world-cup craze, I hope it shall not be another disappointment…

Good luck guys…

U r an inspiration to me… I hope I shall not be disappointed…
