Well do you know you have a magic wand and you know the tricks quite well
Here you raise it and say ab ra ca da bra and i feel am at the top of the world
Its light all around, wind of laughter flows and scares away all my fears
And there you play with it, in some weird way, chant the wrong words,
We are lost in dark, hell mocks at me and my eyes well up with tears..
Oh my magician, beware, with the way you wand it all,
Oh my smile, my sheen, and my wonderful dream, be kind when you use this power

EMBRACE HAPPINESS
EMBRACE HAPPINESS
All of us are aware of the fact that happiness is not a thing to be owned, it is something that can only be felt. Then why do we all chase happiness?
As Osho puts it, everything in the world runs according to the law, 'you create the cause and the effect follows'. But there is another law which governs still deeper than this - Produce the effect and the cause follows. There is a situation in which you feel happy, say a friend has come and you feel happy. Here, feeling happy is the effect and coming of friend is the cause. Now try this- Create the effect and the cause follows. Be happy and the friend will come.
If you're sitting in your room and watching TV and your mother is scolding you for the messy room. There is a loud music being played in the room nearby. Now, out of these three noises, which one do you hear depends on which one you focus on. Similarly, at any particular moment, there are more than one causes of being happy or being sad. It depends on us which cause we allow to affect us.
Happiness is the God of small things. If we keep on waiting for big things to happen- being master of a million dollar, getting your love, being the king of world etc., the small things that give happiness get neglected. In other words, the more we chase happiness, the farther it gets from us.
Why to wait for the pomp and show?
When each moment is a celebration
and there is a celebration in each mo.
When every moment is like a carnival,
Be it so big or be it trivial
It is a moment to sing, moment to dance,
then why to wait for a hard-earned chance?
So celebrate the surprises that are given by life
The pleasure in gains and even the pain in strife.
Caress the innocence in smile of a 3-yr old child
The beauty of a flower, even the atrocity of the wild.
Sway along the trees when they wave to welcome the wind in flight
Shine along the night when it bathes in the beautiful moon-light.
Sing along the music of river as it flows
Dance when the sound from bells of temple echoes.
Weigh the joy in little things, be it as light as snow
Produce the effect of being happy and the cause will follow.
Thoughts become things, just keep this in mind
Think you got those all, and to all those wishes, Universe will be kind.
So break the cold
Do not wait to be told
Make merry and rejoice
Pick up a color of your choice
And paint every instant of today
with brushes of dreams in your very own way.
Wait not for a festival or a party next door
Make each moment a celebration
And find celebration in each mo.

mil jaaye
sab kuchh itni aasaani se nai milta..
jo chahiye hota hai, wo toh kabhi bhi aasani se nai milta,
hum intezaar karte rehte hain..aur koshish karte rehte hain..pray karte hain ki kaise bhi wo mil jaaye,
par pata hi nai chalta ki kab kuchh aur mil jaata hai aur hum,
kuchh uski khushi, kuchh uski hairani, kuchh uska swad aur mazey mein itna gum ho jaate hain,
ki bhul hi jaate hain ki hum kis dor ko pakde the, kis patang ke saath udh jaana chahte the..

sawaal
hai mushkil zameen ke faasle mitana, kyun dil ke faasle hum banaye jaa rhe hain,
tujhse milne ke waaste zinda hain hum, har lamah hum marey jaa rhe hain,
hai kya iraada khuda ka malum nai, vishwaas tera bas hum kiye jaa rhe hain,
thi kadmon mein duniya jab tera haath thaama, ab kyun paun fisalte ja rhe hain,
kitni khaamoshi hai uski zubaan mein, aur hum bas yu hin sawaal kiye jaa rhe hain..
