Heart Touching Lines….



I read these lines some time ago. These are not written by me but some how I couldn’t stop myself from posting them here. Some things which are mentioned here are just so true and if you have loved someone and has got pain in reward of that, you will be agree with me.  Have a read:

Could you be the one for me?
Could you be my find?
Could it be, after all this time,
Fate is going to be kind?
Could you be the one for me,
The one to help me forget
The gal that broke my heart, my soul
The gal that haunts me yet?
You tell me that I’m nice
Something I’ve never heard
But the one still lives here in my mind
That couldn’t spare a kind word
It’s going to be hard to forget
And pick up the pieces she left
Could you be the one to teach
How to love again and forget?
Could you be the one to come
And mend my broken heart?
Are you willing to piece together
What another broke apart?
It won’t be an easy job, you see
My road has been long and rough
And the heart that was once so soft
Is now shut, locked, and tough
But I can feel my heart open again
It’s opening for you
Just come in, and love me back
That’s all you have to do
I must ask you one small thing
Before we kiss and part
Please be nice and kind to me
I’m tired of broken hearts


Some where the poet says that heart of his, which was just so soft and kind some time ago, thanks to that person who broke it, now it is no more that soft.  Now it is no more that soft.  Now its just locked and it has become so much tough.  People who break hearts, people who leave their loved ones for their own gains, selfishness, people who back off on the path of love, they never understand the true meanings of love and loving some one.  Its very easy to break a heart.  What is tough is to be with some one!Its very easy to be selfish and do things just for your own good and for your own benefit.  Its so tough to do  something for others.  Its so much tough to do some thing for some one.  But there are some selfish and cold hearted people in this world too who don’t understand the pain of others, who just have complaints but not few words of appreciation, who just call that person stupid who has done something for them.


Is that person really stupid who went through all that pain for his loved one or is that person is so much stupid who gave away everything for the sake of love?If you are among those who never bothers that someone is doing some thing you, if you say to him/her that what ever he/she has done, it was just his/her wish, you never asked him to do that for you and it was just him who was stupid enough to do all that much for you, if you are among those who say to their loved ones when they are crying with the pain given by you that you don’t have time for their tears and some one’s tears doesn’t mean anything for you coz you have your own problems and that “some one” is no one else but that person who loved you from the bottom of his heart than just remember this, you never will know how much damage you have done!  You have not just broken the heart of some one but also you have killed that very feeling, you have broken that trust that was there some time ago on  love in the heart of that person.  You must know this that its not so easy to be in love and those who are just selfish and come up with explanations supporting their selfishness only , they cant love some one.  Those who give pain and tears to others, they can’t understand what is love and how to love some one.  Those who know just about their own benefits, they are just playing with the feelings of others.  Why do people do like that?When you know you cant give happiness to some one , who has given you the right to give pain to him?When you can’t take some one tears from their eyes who authorized you give the same tears to the other person? But its not some thing about which answer can be given because this world is filled with the people like these only who do everything for just their own benefit and than come and try to prove their act right with the reasons supporting them. True love and true and devoted lovers are just now sleeping in the books only.People of today just know how to say that I have to leave you and be selfish for myself as this is the best for me to do. Is it right or is it wrong you want to know? I dont have the answer as I myself is trying to find the answer for the same puzzle. If you know the answer than let me know too, that’s all I can say.

Happiness is....a journey,not a destination

Happiness is…taking in all the wonders of life; its joys, its sorrows, its sunshine and the beautiful rainbow that follows the rain. Happiness involves learning from each enriching experience life throws your way. It also encourages you to share these experiences and your ever-increasing wisdom with those close to your heart as happiness is made to be shared. But a bar of chocolate does sometimes hit the spot too!


I was discussing "feelings" with a friend lately over a Coffee and we were talking about how great a feeling happiness is. I’m sure the feeling varies from person to person, but for me, when I feel happy, the feeling really does come from somewhere inside my stomach region. Sadness and anxiety usually manifest themselves in the same region at the appropriate times but obviously, the happiness feeling is easier to embrace. It’s glorious and as corny as it sounds, all I want to do is share that feeling with the people around me. It’s a bit like the feeling you get when you’re in love…it feels like lightning coursing through your veins and you feel truly alive. Although happiness, like waves at sea, comes and goes during our lifetimes, and naturally varies in its intensity, when we experience it, it’s essential to enjoy that feeling in the moment without worrying about losing it or holding on to it.


The everyday philosophy of life is fascinating and fortunately, most people have various opinions and advice to offer in terms of the most commonly discussed topics such as the meaning of happiness. I remember striking up a conversation with a Friend at a cafĂ©. We somehow bypassed the usual small talk that strangers often dwell on and proceeded immediately to have a heart-to-heart on the subject of happiness.  This man’s definition of happiness, although not entirely different from the various definitions construed by the rest of us mere mortals, has always stayed with me.In this man’s view happiness is a gift which we must give ourselves. It is a gift which costs nothing and it cannot be given to us by another as happiness comes from within. Once we bestow this gift upon ourselves, it stays with us forever—we may not always feel it or appreciate it but this precious gift remains close to the soul, the very essence of our being.

Intrigued, I felt compelled to ask some questions. ‘Dude, knowing the origins of happiness and where it can be found, can you explain to me what happiness is?’ ‘Yes’, he replied. First he explained, it is important to know what happiness is not. It does not come in the form of material things such as money, cars, clothes or anything else you can touch. Nor does happiness present itself as another person. Although happiness is made to be shared, only you can create it. Happiness manifests itself as a feeling or a state of being. You create happiness when your mind, body and soul are connected and when you, as a whole, are at one with the external world around you.

The next obvious question which he answered refers to how we achieve this inner peace and ‘oneness’ 
with the world and the people around us. To put it simply, in order to be at peace with yourself, you must be true to yourself. Being ‘true to yourself’ involves loving yourself and believing in your abilities and your dreams. It also necessitates that by believing in your dreams, you must make them a reality by following the emblazoned path you’re meant to forge for yourself in your lifetime. When you live the life your dreams and destiny implore you to live, then you are fulfilled and at peace with yourself. When you are at peace with yourself, this has a natural ripple effect and you are then at peace with everybody around you.Therefore, when a person is unhappy, either they haven’t yet begun to pursue their dreams or they have started to do so but they have encountered some difficulties along the way. The path of life is littered with challenges but although life’s twists and turns may sometimes seem physically and emotionally impassable, it’s when things seem hardest that you must persevere. As long as you remain true to yourself and your dreams, happiness will never elude you.

As my family and friends know, if my head wasn’t physically attached to my body, I’d have lost it long ago, alongside, socks [seriously, there has to be a sock vortex in every washing machine] and various other worldly possessions. Fortunately, once you’ve experienced happiness, you can never lose it. Sometimes, you just have to be patient and have faith in yourself. This l have learnt alongside from all the faliures and rejections that I had in my life which later became a stepping stone for my success!

‘Happiness is when what you think, what you say and what you do are in harmony’
