it's been a long time!...

hello everyone,
it's been a long time since i have posted anything here...it certainly does not mean that there isn't anything more to say...only yesterday a close friend gave me a beautiful couplet.

jaata nahin kinaron se aage kisi ka dhyan
kab se pukarta hoon, yahan hoon, yahan hoon mein!

how true! how many people have the courage these days to look beyond the boundaries, to go beyond the limits...even the rebellions are choreographed so as to be incorporated within the limits

and then another one from another colleague and friend...

toofaan kar raha tha mere azm ka tawaaf
duniya samajh rahi thi ke kashti bhanwar mein hai!

azm means dignity, greatness, tawaaf karna means to go around something, but here it recalls the Haj pilgrimage where one has to do the rounds of the Kabah while praying to God.

poochte hain woh ke ghalib kauh hai...
