To the ultimate Influence

I ve started my journey far and wide
Through pleasant weather and changing tides
I ve so far climbed some hills and peaks
But the horizons are always far to seek
I ve fallen ill and sometimes stumbled
I ve passed many moments with prayers mumbled
There have been times when I wanted to end it all
But through these times I always stood tall
My quest at some point I must confess
Could have ended very meaningless
But for when at cross roads I stood
Grappled for all the meaning I could
And there you came passing by
Just as I was about to cry
You revealed the biggest truth there was to be
And that completely set me free
To trust myself and myself alone
And not to be some dictate’s clone
To be dishonesty’s last slave
And always be amongst the brave
To say sorry was better than not try
Cause its only with initiative one can fly
I know at some point I must end
But you know that’s too less for a great friend!!!!!!!!


………………A dedication to a person who makes the biggest difference to my life. Naveen Narayanan, the one who lives the term friend philosopher and guide through every day of my life. Lucky are those of us whose lives have been touched by this great person. Very very lucky indeed. Words do not suffice....

Theater Drama

corporate madness one of a kind
Theater drama my latest find
came past it through a family friend
thought I'd muster all support I could lend
ended up in a play she called great
None ever so big done till date
Then I realised what I'd done
To escape I found excuses none
the friend that was, was turning terror
I didnt quite know where was the error
all I had to do was just dance
and show up somewhere at whatever chance
as rehersals went by the day
I started liking what came my way
I love practise immensely now
This change came about I know how
Its not the play or the purpose
Its the people absolutely ofcourse
even the director who eats my head
or the producer who thinks iam braindead
the journo by night and what else by day
the crazy kid who eats all the way
the photographer madly in love
the heroine who only looks above
the dancer sweet tempered most time
stage manager who has it easy as a rhyme
this could go one till god knows when
there would be still more to quote even then
all I'd say is I dunno how
I am just so glad this happened NOW


I am a part of a thearter production. Its crazy. I always want to bunk practise before I go. But when I finish with it I feel damn good. I ve met some really nice people.People who do their work with admirable dedication and expertise and are yet so modest and down to earth. Mention Samanth, Sunder and Lasya ( who I ve admired immensely as a kid). Many of the kids I ve met here too...esp Namratha the crazy little thing thats always eating between rehersal.Karan the supposed stage manager who send irritating morning messages and doesnt know what he is doing in this play yet being there day in and day out buying us food and being subject to a lot of bullying from me and Namratha.
I immensely enjoy the people I meet. There is no better way to learn in life.However eccentric they might seem, I realise what I see is what I think. So enjoying these people might just mean I am fun right???? Ummmm Uhhhhhh!!!!!

Hahahahaha
