Someone told me the other day......

'Trust is like good wine, it needs time to come to maturity.'

I loved the analogy.......how true!

Pessimism can be a funny thing....

Heard one character say this to another character in a movie. I was thoroughly amused :)

"Life is a series of struggles. If you're happy right now, be patient. This too, shall pass."

Sharks....

I wrote this poem a little while ago on a sleepless night, at 1 am in the morning, watching a discovery channel special about sharks. Yes, I know I have a "special" talent when it comes to writing ;)


A wise old man once told me,
If sharks stop swimming, they die at sea,
Pondering that, it dawned on me,
I am that shark, that shark is me!

My accomplishment over the weekend.

First dance with a belly dancer..

So you think that was freaky? Wait till you hear this!

So this happened to me a month or two ago during my first winter here in NYC. I woke up one morning and took a shower and was late for work, so I just put on a cap and walked out to get to work on time. After walking a block or so, I noticed that my hair had dried out. WOW..that was quick, I thought and touched my hair and to my horror, noticed that there was ice on it!!!! My hair FROZE...can you imagine???? That's the freakiest every day thing that has happened to me in my entire life...it thawed when I got to work.
Frozen and thawed, two terms I never imagined I would use to structure a description of my hair!

Shot through the heart and you're to blame....Darling you give love a bad name...

Isn't it strange that sometimes the people you love the most end up doing something completely callous and indifferent and don't even realize it? The sad thing is that you know that it wasn't deliberate, yet you still can't help feeling hurt. You steer clear of making excuses for them, that's because you can look inside their head and see what was going on in their thought processes, yet this is little consolation to the big chink that goes missing from your heart. It's like a part of your love for them dies, over something small and insignificant in the grand scheme of things...but it still matters because you're disappointed somehow... in the depth of your feelings for them and in their sensitivity to yours.

Is there really any kind of love that conquers all?

I believe in a thing called Oil....

So I went and watched Syriana a little while ago...I can safely say that movie makes an impact. It's good at capturing the market demand and supply for oil and how it influences world politics.

However, its tragic to realize that we, as a race, have sunk so low that a natural resource that fuels our cars and machines, a lot of times also controls our hearts and our minds.
