Nebulous mind swathed with the black clothes. Life seems a burden. Days are lying in the wintry bed, life is meaningless. ‘Women come and go talking of Michal Angelo…’There is no difference between life and death for none has come back from the realm of death. No difference is there in being me and not being me. Promises are false. Commitments die premature death, hopes commit suicide by hanging. Hollowness prevails everywhere. Yellow evenings sit on their knees. A little fire could warm their day.

This is life. For some it is interesting. for a few it is not. It is for us to take it interesting. If you are in a cold place you must go and sit near the fire to keep yourself warm. good day.

Hello ravisivan,
If you are in a cold place you must go and sit near the fire to keep yourself warm. good day.
This is not a solution my friend. Today it is cold and I warm up my body for a while and got a soothing feel. But what would you suggest when the inner self is too cold and no outer fire would ever warm them up?

OH you are telling about hot inside. for that solution is within ourselves. We must always look at others who are lower than our status and also people who have bigger problems than ourselves and satisfy ourselves.
have a good day.

Why not warm up your inner self? Why accept darkness? Why not light a candle?

Yes, life is that bad. Go and chide the late school boys if you do not realize what is going on around you.

Hello Kalav,
No my friend, I am not sad. We all are sad and hypocrite. We are carrying along a falsified dream that would never get realized. This irony is that though we know the reality. Please go for an introspection and see around your house and see their faded face that does not hide even under thick make ups.

Hi raj, we all play losing games at times and do things that are self defeating. The fabric of life is multi-coloured just as the universe is diverse, yet feelings, emotions, desires and dreams are quite similar all over the world. So you aren't alone in this life drama. Continue to have good wishes and a day will come when all this will stop.

Hi my dear friend zands, Not that I an too depressed seeing all these happs around us. But trying to showcase the reality that most of us have not realized yet. Just a seed embed and to see the sapling what color it bears. We are all fools of be fooled or love to be a part of the chaotic existence.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Sounds like quite the depressive nook. Living in the wintry bed is good. Life is much more than meaningless. Oh yes! Right off the top of your head or nearly so i am thinking. Not bad. Take a dump and then try again. lol

Hi Celti,
Nice to see you after a long interval.
No, not a depressive note but a grim picture of reality. Yes "[b][/b]Living in the wintry bed is good.". For you and perhaps me but think of those who are crying out just for a piece of cloth to wrap their body be it warm or not.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Rajibda
Life was never given to anyone with a promise that all will be always fine. Even if it came with that promise, promises are to be broken sometime. I believe that life is good no doubt and to make ourself understand what is Good, we must experience the bad too. If there was always happiness around... we would never have learned the importance of goodness.
But yes, one thing - which life fails to teach (as this is subjective) - is the Knowledge and Sight to see what is good and what is bad. If we all could realize what is good and bad, it would have been a little easier... Unfortunately, not all have an eye to find the difference and also many do not want to learn that art.

I feel like that sometimes. But eventually I get hold of myself and remember that the quality of my life depends on ME. I have to make it interesting and enjoyable myself and remember my goal of dying with no regrets, having left my mark on as many peoples' hearts as possible in the best way.
If you yourself are feeling this way, do a kindness for someone you don't know. Write a check to a charity, open a door for someone, kneel down for a moment and thank God for all the good things in your life.
Everything that you have quoted is true if we allow it to be. We are the ones in charge of our quality of life and we can live it that way or live it in a way that spreads goodness.

Hiya kraj,
Nice words in this writing and true to life. Life does seem to follow that course of things as well.
Kraj even though my hopes might get squashed over and over I still keep getting up and out you fall over you get up the Sun warms my Day here.
Hope your Days are much happier and sorry I have to go now.xxx

An interesting point of vieuw on life. And so true. This is life and it gives us a lot to think about, to deal with and above all: life experiences.
What would life be, mean if we are never down. Are never rejected or depressed? If we don't know how it feels that promises are (again) not kept and there are so many commitments who die premature?
Would we really be able to enjoy life that much? Feel how it is to be on the top of the hill? Recognize happiness? Enjoy colours?
Love yourself and embrace life with all it's aspects!

Hi WakeUpKitty,
I must thank you for you penetrated through the them of the discussion. I accept every thing you held up. But I am too confused and despaired seeing their non cohesiveness. There is symmetry. Accepted there is laughter and cry, lose and win, like day and night, but have you ever peeped through the white bones what lies in our flesh and mind. Every moment rambling mind is never stable. Now you would be thinking of this comment and the next moment something about your family issue. Far in the horizon you me and others mingles to nothingness. Like a pinned cockroach wriggling on the table.

Yes, it is still life! Others try to end it while others are striving to have it. You may experience downs today but life is like a wheel. Sometimes you are on top, enjoying the best life can give and sometimes you are at the bottom, struggling to survive. Maybe you need a spiritual adviser. Someone who could bring you back to the right track. Someone who could enlighten your mind and open your heart.
You know in our country, even the blind strives hard to live. I'm not against to them but I salute their will to continue living. They work as singers, in massage parlors and many others. Imagine if you can't see, if you can't enjoy the beauty of life, would you like to continue your life or end it because there is no reason to live?
