Sitting on sand, I am curious to know......

Sitting on sand, I am curious to know Why I am here, what debt I owe Sun shines on me, I am touched by Snow My bare legs, don't let me enjoy though People pass by, some give a look others no I sometimes wonder, everyday where they go In the day, time runs very slow Darkness of night, brings new tales of woe My father fakes a smile, as if I don't know Looking at his life, I don't want to grow Sitting on sand, I am curious to know Why I am here, what debt I owe ~ Neeraj

When I...........

When I wake up from my dreams, I have my eyes on the target with a sense of purposefulness When I feel cool breeze blowing in the morning, I get energized by the natural freshness When I take a walk in the garden full of flowers, I get enchanted by the aromatic fragrance When I listen birds singing, I get fascinated by the melodious calmness When I see a mother watching her kid going school, I witness an unparalleled moment of happiness When I get caressed by rain drops in the scorching heat of summer, I feel the heavenly touch of coolness When I stand on top of a hill & clouds hover below me, I feel everything is filled with liveliness When I lie-down under the sky full of shining stars, I see a world glowing out of the darkness When I go to sleep, I think of a new day full of opportunities with a high degree of hopefulness                                                                                                                   

Life is a Cup of Coffee, Just Drink it Through

Chase your dreams till the end, be in the company of few Life is a cup of coffee, just drink it through We fail in small assignments, because something bigger is due This is how we become stronger, this how the world grew We all have difficulties, but we come through Climbing a hill is challanging but its worth the view Problems are many, solutions are few Sometimes we just don't know what to do We all wish to be in front, but there is a long queue Its the confidence & the trust that takes us through What we think doesn't matter what matters is what we do If the movie has our favourite star cast, we don't wait for the review Deep sea or the shining sky, we like the color blue We love the morning sun, we enjoy the hill top view What we think would be a lie, turns out to be true We hate the day heat, but love the morning dew Its not always green & blue, at times its greenish blue Lost in the beauty of nature, we l

Empowerment - The word that has lost its meaning

Empowerment the word that is misunderstood in a big way. Today when we talk about empowerment, it is more about giving reservations. Well I was of the opinion that empowering someone is about making them capable so that they can compete with others. Are we really empowering people by giving reservations? Just imagine a 100 meter race. There is a person who doesn't have fitness levels or training available to compete against the best. Now what our logic of empowering that person is let him start at 90 meter mark (I hope I am not being too optimistic here ;)). He will beat Usain bolt who starts at zero mark (10 meter against 100 meter, he should do that ;)). Wow we have just empowered a person to beat the best in the world. Really? Isn't it unfair to the person starting at zero? Maybe not to that extent as it is for the one who starts at 90. Because every now & then he will be reminded of the fact that "You won because you started at 90 meters". Now w
