i think i only lost my mind

Words left your mouth, but never reached my ears.

Time left us broken, but always let us heal.

You left, but never looked back at what you left behind.

Do I look up your lost words, or my lost mind?

excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude

"If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way." Martin Luther King Jr said that. When you think of excellence, words like being the best, being closest to perfect and being exceptional in whatever one does, flash through the mind. It is not a skill that is inborn in some and acquired by others, like writing or painting. It is an attitude that you develop in yourself. The habits that make you, you. Yes, excellence is a part of you. The attitude of being extremely good at whatever you do, and doing it with utmost hard work and dedication, is excellence. You better yourself. Fix mistakes.

Doing what nobody else has done. Pushing boundaries of possibility. Breaking barriers. Going where no soul has been. Excellence gives satisfaction to the heart, and success comes automa

Around a month back, the football frenzy that the FIFA World Cup was, concluded. Many fans were disappointed while many others rejoiced even as Germany led a dream run to glory .

The FIFA World Cup Brasil 2014 was perhaps the most viewed event ever in the history of mankind(Whoa!) For me though, it did not mean much. Not that I did not enjoy the beautiful game that football is (arguably the most beautiful and by far the most popular game in the world) once in a while, but I merely stand for the fact that five in every seven people worldwide do not follow it.

2am

I'd tell you about misery, love, And how it rains here every night And how I sit at the window to watch The monotony distract me to thoughts Of the world, but mostly, my world, you; And I'd tell you about the things I wish to say, love And how the sun kissed puddles Remind me of broken reflections we'd make in them Until one of us tried to push the other, Laughing, playful, maybe even happy; And I'd tell you about the nights I couldn't sleep, And you seemed just a call away then, But I haven't slept any better, And you're a thousand miles away now; But most of all, I'd tell you about the 2ams The sad, broken 2ams of yore, and now, When you'd say, like our own little tradition, "Nothing good happens after 2am," And I'd whisper, as I still do, but to the rain now, "And I love you." 2am Written by Yash Raj Talan [note to self: you shall always love the rain]
