Minds Eye Of Life

“Happiness is not always outcome of an act, Happiness is at times the act itself. A lot of times happiness is lost, Lost in transition of thoughts. It would be much easier to be happy, By living more and thinking less.” I wrote the above lines and began to ponder why so much fuss about happiness.  I questioned myself, “Aren’t there multiple avenues leading to happiness?”  I let my mind go a little wilder and let it take trip of its own.  I dig deeper and realised that sadness is the key to realising the absence of happiness. More importantly the existence of happiness gains prominence because sadness exists.  A relation closely shared by truth and lies and also shared by light and darkness.  Some prefer silence than making noise; it’s the act of making a point by not making one. One can certainly be happy without going out in the wilderness hunting for happiness. Seeking the known which is camouflaged and labelled to be the unknown is...

Lost in the act of connecting the dots, Lines are drawn over and over again. Yet when I stand back and view them, They seem to be all haphazard. I take another step away from the lines, I stare at them as hard as I can, I realize they are drawn they were supposed to be, Just that they are not to my liking anymore. Some more dots and lines are drawn again, Hoping to realize the visualized thoughts, The act of creation is simply never ending. Perfection can reflect in abstract thoughts too, It’s just that you need to believe in them as true. - Cheers and Peace ~ Vijay Shenoy

"People dream and hold them close to their heart, Never letting them get away from their clasps. Still holding on to them, despite they not coming true, For they hope some day their dreams will come true. Wish some day we all realise the simple truth of dreams, They come true for all who believe in them, And find the path and walk forward to make them come true." Cheers and Peace ~ Vijay Shenoy A.K.A #GabbyVJ

"Thoughts which stay unexpressed in the mind, Trouble us with sleepless nights and dreams unkind. Let them flow freely, unrestricted and unbounded, The soul is pleased when thoughts are let free, Just like the birds in the blue sky would be." Cheers and Peace ~ Vijay Shenoy A.K.A #GabbyVJ

"Mistrust and misunderstanding bring down the axe on every relation. Love is a funny thing which is held together by trust. Yet it needs to be unconditional and sometimes blind too. Some call it silly, some call it nonexistent. Yet when you are in true love you believe in it more than self."   Cheers and Peace ~ Vijay Shenoy A.K.A #GabbyVJ

Hey you stranger, Would you like to talk to me? I am feeling lonely tonight, Would you like to walk with me? Let’s share some stories, Stories of our lives, Some stories with a smack of salt, Some stories with a dash of sugar. The walk may not be long, The togetherness will be short, We may turn strangers again, As we reach the next crossroads. But the pain of separation wouldn’t be heavy, For our hearts will be lighter. We both will be smiling as we part ways, For our minds will be free of some baggage, And our hearts filled with love and joy. Cheers and Peace ~ Vijay Shenoy A.K.A #GabbyVJ

She was blessed with kindness, She was bestowed with charm, She was born to fly high and free, And not to be caged and be abused. Her silence is not acceptance of oppression, If her beauty can sway your heart, Her anger can burn you to ashes. Couple of weeks ago or so I just happened to view a teaser of the short film called “Dwar” (to check out the Promo click here ). And I must admit I was impressed and was also intrigued as to what the full version of it would be like. And then couple of days ago I received the link to view the full version of the film from the makers of the film Know Your Star . (To check the full version click here ). I viewed it once and then I viewed it again. The next few minutes I sat there in front of my laptop in silence, for I was blown away by what I had watched. It’s not the creativity alone showcased in the film by the makers that triggered me to write this post. It was the cause they addressed through this short film calle...
