New Place, New Face

We are in the process of shifting the house....but I have always lived in this area ( almost 26 yrs now) so a little hesitant to move to the new house. Let me tell you, It is a cute little apartment with 3 bedrooms, 2 attached bathrooms, a kitchen, a utility, & a big hall/dining hall.

The kitchen itself is such a beauty with shelves & cupboards where I would love to cook there & let my imaginative juices flow.... :)

The smaller room is a kids room so perfect for my daughter :) has a cupboard with hangers at a shorter height.. It has a big book shelf on 1 half of the wall. It has wall to ceiling cupboards in the master bedroom like i always wanted ;-) you can dump all the stuff there....

but the only but is I am always used to induvidual houses, have always lived in one where you open the door & you can go out & c the road & people & kids playing. Here I open the door & I see the lift door bang opposite. I have to climb down 2 sets of stairs & then I can see some open space...

Planning for a little furniture not too much though...but need to wait until we move into the house & then see what furniture we would need. Dont want to get anything for the hall!! Still thinking & putting my thoughts in a single bag?? dont know will have to wait & watch!

If Wishes Were Horses!!!

I was going through all these blogs & it suddenly hit me out of the blue... I had this urge to pen down a little something too... I dont know but but i feel like I'm stuck in a rut these days...feel like i need to break free & give wind to my wings & soar like a bird over the valleys & high seas. Am i doing the right thing the right way?? I am not sure of it any more.... dont know when the level of water in the Well of my happiness & enthusiasm started depleting & now it may be well on its way to drying up?? There were those times in the olden & golden days when I cud feel that if reached out good enough I could get to touch the sky..now am not sure any more :(

Dream

This poem by Langston Hughes describes...everything I would want to tell in words..... It was a long time ago.I have almost forgotten my dream.But it was there then,In front of me,Bright like a sun--My dream.And then the wall rose,Rose slowly,Slowly,Between me and my dream.Rose until it touched the sky--The wall.Shadow.I am black.I lie down in the shadow.No longer the light of my dream before me,Above me.Only the thick wall.Only the shadow.My hands!My dark hands!Break through the wall!Find my dream!Help me to shatter this darkness,To smash this night,To break this shadowInto a thousand lights of sun,Into a thousand whirling dreamsOf sun!

Change - The Only Constant In Life

As they say the only thing that is constant throughout life is change! Trying to battle it out is very difficult...it is such conflicting thing go with the flow or to resist it. right now there are a lot of changes happening...once you get too used to the idea of being in one place it is very difficult to move. There are people moving away & some moving beyond to a place where they cant return from... leaving a lot of change behind them..there will be new faces & old cherished memories... so what is one supposed do? welcome change with open arms or turn your face in the opposite direction denying it completely & withdraw into your little shell??

The Taste Of Freedom

With the sun in my eyes & the wind in my hair.... I came to know what it is like to be free!! With each step when your feet make a new mark on the wet sand... When you can taste the salty breeze on your lips... When you hear the roar of the Sea crashing on to the rocks...When you are riding & the wind is whipping through your hair.. then you know how you feel when you are free!! When you are high above on the sea hanging in mid-air just tied to a rope & you can see from here to the distant horizon...you feel like you are a bird soaring high...
