Reena’s Exploration Challenge #94

‘ Life was like a box of chocolates. You never what you will get.’ 

From- Forrest Gump

Life is more like a game of cricket.

However, you may seem to be 

efficient in batting

it throws a different ball each time

it has many surprises in its bag

you win or lose

depends on

how much confident, focused and balanced you are

still, it manages to surprise some times

Or

it’s a game of chess

between

life and death

and 

we are just

pawns

Lotus feet

I am aware of the horrors of lotus feet due to feet binding in China. However, Indian culture has compared the feet of God to lotus, perhaps, due to its cleansing properties. Devotion (Bhakti Rasa) is not really my stronghold, but this week's prompt led me to try my hand at it. Here's the haiku … Continue reading Lotus feet

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #94 – Seasons change, so do people and relationships. What remains constant is the process of churning out thoughts – some mundane, some innovative and some creative – but it is energy nevertheless, energy which powers the world. So, here we are in another tiny capsule of time, reproducing snapshots of our thought process in this space.  PROMPT:  TRUTH & MEANING.

Maria Antonia Weekly 2019 Photography Challenge – Come join me, each Saturday, in posting a photo.  There  is a list of the prompts to help inspire us. The order of the photos won’t matter. In other words, you don’t have to start at the top and move toward the end. For this challenge, you may pick any prompt on the list and start with that.  PROMPT:  ROAD WORTHY.

The path looks a little rugged, but it's still there. Find your way....

Nothing But The Truth

Nothing but the truth …. by kittysverses

kittysverses's avatarKitty's Verses

In which form ,

Would I like to be remembered ,

After I part from this world forever?

A statue,

A fossil,

A memory,

A relic,

A photo,

In the hearts of loved ones,

Or merely formless,

While on this Earth, change is constant,

It’s undeniable, that,

While everything changes,

The truth is, that is, constant,

The truth is, that is, inevitable,

The truth is, that is, invincible,

The truth is, that is, universal,

Be us young or old,

Be us rich or poor,

Be us good or bad,

Be us big or small,

The truth is All- Supreme,

It doesn’t distinguish,

It doesn’t sympathise,

It doesn’t concede,

It doesn’t conceal,

The truth is evident,

One day all of us have to depart,

To make way for for progeny,

The truth only knowing,

When,

Until then,

We benefit much to enjoy our stay here,

Lest we regret later,

When truth…

Sounds of the city

Honking was considered bad manners in this city. He looked helplessly at the traffic jam in front, and the girl on the back seat, struggling for breath. His heart flipped over at the thought of being found with a corpse in his car. His heartbeats were loud, sweat trickling down his temples, but everybody around … Continue reading Sounds of the city

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #94- The meaning of truth

The meaning of truth …. by Sadje

Sadje's avatarKeep it alive

What is the truth and what is its meaning

We spend our lives to seek the answer to

This question which forms the basis on which

We build our beliefs and moral code of life

The answer though simple does not reveals

Itself to all and everyone of us because we need

To explore and look deep into our soul to find it

The prompt;

You may choose either the picture or the words or both, andlet it take you wherever it does.

Please credit the photographer if you choose the picture as your prompt.

Eulogy of a rebel

Quite often, I find myself gripped with a death wish. I feel like my existence is not very relevant to the world. Nor do they have anything to keep me happy and contented. I don’t really care about eulogies or elegies written for me. What does matter is that my point of view – spoken, … Continue reading Eulogy of a rebel
