Colours of Expression

I'm crazy, I'm weird and I like being heard... I'm a typical Leo ...with few characteristics of a Scorpio! I like being creative... Photography, Dance, Music, and Art is my passion And I prefer dressing in Casuals when it comes to Fashion! In food, I relish Continental and Italian And I think it's not all that hard to digest North-Indian... I'm sensitive, emotional and full of witty humor I love reading bestsellers and I'm an avid reader... I'm bound to my gadgets and the gadgets to me... We're inseparable - Cell phones and Laptop and PC I adore nature and it's beauty Respecting elders... I feel.. is our first and foremost duty I live like a Princess but don't write 'ny Diaries People say I'm such a kid 'coz I still believe in Vampires and Wizards and Fairies! Of chocolates and barbies and teddies and toys, I wouldn't swap them for a zillion cute guys! Discipline, honesty, and humbleness has always been my motto I'd love to ...

Of all the knowledge I've gained in the field of science till date and all the science articles I've read online regarding the 4th dimension, it only ended up in one conclusion that the fourth dimension was indeed TIME, length - breath - height being the first three. Initially I thought that the fourth dimension could be space but I was wrong - the 4th dimension was indeed time. Well, don't worry I'm not gonna be talking all science here. It was when I met a very knowledgeable personality and was expressing my views about the same topic that I was completly taken aback by what that person had to say when I'd mentioned 4th Dimension. I simply couldn't convince her about whatever I had read on the topic coz she had preconceived notions about the same and was simply not willing to agree to anything I had to say. Her views about 4th dimension were related to the Christian philosophy and Jesus Christ. She said 4th dimension was not Time at all. Instead 4th dimension ...

I know a lot of you out there would be thinking ... "What a weird title to write an article on! As if I never found anything else to write about". Well, why I chose to write an article on this topic has a little background to it. As I have already mentioned about my intuitive powers in the previous posts, won't stress on it again. But yeah, it has something to do with it. I have this very dear friend of mine, someone who means a lot to me. He's one of the most balanced individuals I have ever come across. Whenever I'd think about him and close my eyes, I could always see a white lily plant with a fresh flower that has not completely blossomed but it wasn't a bud as well. After repeatedly seeing the same vision over and over, I began wondering what it meant. And here I am writing down just exactly what I decoded! Firstly the Lily, it was white - a symbol for purity and peace. It wasn't completely blossomed nor was it a bud which meant that the individual...

Being born and brought up in a country like India is truly fascinating! And I feel all the more lucky to be in a city like Mumbai - the city of dreams, the city that never sleeps - as they call it! This city has given me much more in terms of experiences than I could have ever imagined; both good as well as bad. (Ahhh !!!! ...whatever ! As if anyone cares ! ). But I somehow cannot ignore the fact that it is these very experiences that have helped me grow as a person and be a mature individual. Interacting with people from different castes, communities, religion on a day-to-day basis makes you more tolerant towards accepting people who are different from you. But it's really sad that some people do not think the same and try to cash in on votes and create politics over sensitive matters like discrimination on the basis of caste, community, religion and so on. I belong to a family where religion is given a hell lotta importance! And I wouldn't refuse calling myself a thorough cat...

...Now I've learnt the lessons by heart Everything seems closer still miles apart... They said I did it! I said I didn't! Fingers of doubt pointed towards me. I stood strong as a rock, unaffected. I was true to my spirit, I believed in truth, I was true to my soul. Even though I am sensitive, Even though I am emotional, That's what kept me from being irrational. They say people change! I say attitudes change! What matters in the end is truth and only the truth. Anything else will never sustain. There was no need for me to fear, my Karma was right. Tides were high and I felt the pressure. No ship around in sight except a small raft floating near. Sometimes you find hope int he most unexpected places. How true it was I realised then! They say time heals all wounds! I say mind heals all wounds! They saw truth shinning like a bright star, And realised they were wrong. Entangled strings of relationships. Now set all right. They say broken relationships are like broken china, the...

The first thing that strikes my mind when you talk of sixth sense and intuition is “God’s Gift – to see the unseen and know the unknown much before the world has to see and know it”. By God’s grace I have been blessed with a pretty good sense of intuition. It all began when I was in school; then, I could never understand anything happening around or rather I never wanted to or even if I did, I never wanted to interpret it as a part of my own life. I didn’t even realise that what I used to see in my dreams, used to, sooner or later, actually happen in real life. As time passed by meditation did help me a lot in figuring out how to solve the puzzle of life and in realising the true power of this gift! It worked wonders for me during the S.S.C. board exams as a lot of questions that I predicted before the exams used to appear in the paper…! If I’m emotionally attached to anyone, I can very well predict events about to happen in their lives. But in the initial days, not everyone believ...

My childhood was like "life in a bubble". I didn't really know anything beyond the horizons of the bubble or rather, never felt the need to know. By God's grace I'm blessed with some friends on whom I can actually count on. My parents have instilled the upbringing in me that there are no short cuts to success. I always had to put in a lot of hardwork to get whatever I wanted; even if that was a toy. I was so content being with my friends and just attending school, doing my homework, being disciplined and innocent that I never felt the need to know anything beyond these limits. And like all good things have to come to an end, the bubble finally burst ! The consequences... well, I don't know whether I should refer to it as good or bad. But I guess everything has its positives and negatives. That's how life gets balanced at every stage. The positive part was that I actually realised that not all people in the world are as good, caring, disciplined, reliable ...

Most of the GenNext youth prefer not giving any importance to relationships. They are extremely broad-minded, believe in being self made people and give least importance to family and relatives. This is just the first “extreme” condition I’m talking about. Here people are so busy with their own lives that they begin thinking … “Where’s the time to go and fulfill my obligations and responsibilities towards my family”. They’d prefer hanging around and whiling away time with friends at a popular hangout place rather than spending time with family and relatives. Attending a friend’s birthday party becomes more important than attending your closest cousin’s marriage! And as far as college life is concerned meeting your boyfriend or girlfriend and chatting about nothing at all is more important than a prayer ceremony that may be being held at home. To top it all, lying at home, lying to your elders to fulfill all such unnecessary obligations is simply not acceptable. Is this what our culture...

Imagining life without colour was practically impossible for me...!!! Colour was such an inseparable part of my life !!! Life seems so much better with all its different hues and shades trying to create harmony and balance within each other's existence. As much as this sounds crazy, I've realized that the basic shades of colour i.e. black and white could equally be as much interesting as colours. In fact, I would call it a far more balanced phenomenon than colour. Lesser the dimensions and scope, lesser are the complexities involved. Most of us live our life in colour these days. Our expressions depict various hues and shades through a single day. Anger, jealousy, hatred, happiness, sorrow, frustration, excitement are just some of them. Knowingly or unknowingly, at times, we trade these colours with the virtue of our soul. I'm not debating the fact if this is right or wrong, its just that when you compare a similar scenario with basic shades like black and white, you will...

There are various factors that compelled me to title the above photograph as "Colours of Expression : The Picture" . A first look at the picture will immediately bring to your mind the colour 'blue' only because of its significance in representing sadness & depicting sorrow. But a careful observation will reveal a lot more than what meets the eye. The subject is positioned in the light while darkness surrounds her. Darkness is symbolic of lack of morals, ethics and principles in life, anger, jealousy, betrayal, lies, fakeness, corruption, narrow mindedness and a lot of similar things. The light represents the goodness within one's soul; the power to overcome the darkness and fight back for human rights and justice. The subject isn't sad about facing the darkness but instead is preparing herself mentally and physically to face the challenges that lie ahead. There is a very thin line between what is right and what is easy. The subject, very religiousl...
