There are victims of amnesia on the other side of town. The precious moments spent here are lost in the melee of development. Why don’t you cross over to meet them? I did, but claustrophobia drove me back. Build something here to attract them. I cannot stand their derision on things they don’t understand. The … Continue reading Un-bridged
heaviness of peace weighs me down where battles define existence unanswered questions are buried to hoist flags of victory on uncertain grounds wisdom gives way to a myopic future zipping with lightning speed on information highways Photo Challenge #225
I hear that energy is indestructible. It changes forms, but remains somewhere in the universe. Some people claim to hear the sounds from history. I wonder what the Hiroshima victims would have said, and is there someone around with the sensitivity to get the message? Did they say something about the immense pain of being … Continue reading Firestorms

She walked through fire, but was not burnt by it, which leaves me with three possibilities of how this occurred. The woman had this mysterious skill which allowed her to become the strange fire walker of Borneo. She started out walking barefoot over a bed of hot embers or stones and kept pushing the limits of physics, till her whole body became completely resistant to any flames. There were other fire walkers around who were able to limit the amount of time that their feet were in contact with the hot coals, staying below the threshold time where it was not long enough to induce a burn, but she was a whole level above her competition. Maybe this chick who played with fire and did not get burned was just someone who not burnt out, meaning that she was not completely exhausted due to being overworked. That brings us…

I was pushing the Certified Financial Planner (CFP) course in 2002, and it was not a very successful venture. It was seen as a concept, whose time had not come.

“We often confuse what we wish for with what is.”
― Neil Gaiman, MirrorMask
I’m suffering from the dyslexia
of emotions
always getting confused and
bewildered
when the pain crosses the boundary to
get mixed with the love
when my longing for the company is
oft met by your absence
and a flurry of excuses
for us to be apart
I’m suffering from the dyslexia of emotions
when the intense passion
and desire longed by my heart
gets confused by the mere
entanglement of our body parts
I’m suffering from the dyslexia of emotions
when my attempt to surprise you
and feeble attempts to win your heart
gets lost in the incessant
screaming and shouting
tearing us apart
I’m suffering from dyslexia of emotions
when every feeling of joy
of togetherness
gets mixed up
burned,
and gets scarred.
I’m suffering from dyslexia of emotions
when joys and pain are hard to tell apart.
