Twin Souls

Sitting together in a busy Restaurant
Talking about various things under the Sun
She smiling, just happy to be there
He mesmerized with her dark intelligent eyes

If time is a road; they have traveled some distance together
Inseparable, holding hands through ups and downs

Years later; once in a while
She closes her eyes to travel back in time
Sitting together in a busy Restaurant
Talking about various things under the Sun

Time will pass; memories will linger
Forms will fade away, twin souls traveling together

In some other World, at some other time
He mesmerized with her dark intelligent eyes
She smiling, just happy to be there
Talking about various things under the Sun

Which is the best way to live?

I really don't know how many people actually face this dilemma at some time in life. Which is the best way to live?

To find the quite within one self or to loose the self in the hustle, bustle and noise of the outside world?

As I go deeper into myself (where ever- the heart, mind, soul or conscience); the connect with the outside world gradually fades away....the humming sounds slow down and gradually they fade away. All the noise in my head is replaced with a powerful silence.....I feel this is the kind of silence which exists in the Deep Blue Universe. The Universe (outside the earth) must be a very quite place. Nothing to disturb the silence. No Trains & Buses, no phones or people...........eternal silence! The more I travel within myself; more I connect with an eternal silence of the Deep Blue Universe. Its a mystery. How can a Human mind, caged in a human body connect with the far away Universe? Yes, there is a bridge. A mystical bridge called meditation.

Swearing In Of Barrack Obama as the 44th President of USA

Just finished watching the swearing in ceremony of the new President of America, Barrack Obama. Undoubtedly, a grand event. Awesome. A strong message to the World. The power of America. Supremacy of America over the world. It was a very costly ceremony for a nation which is struggling with recession, job cuts and terrorism.

What touched my heart was the vulnerability of the Obama family. His wife looked emotional and out of place. His father, caught in the moment. His daughters enjoying the moment, probably not realizing the criticality of this ceremony in the world history.

What made me wake up, almost in the middle of night and capture this moment and feelings on my blog was Barrack Obama himself- he looked somber, detached and tense. There is an air of intellect and spirituality which Obama carries around. It was as if he was telling himself, I must be strong. Something about Barrack Obama is very arresting. Something about him brings hope.


What also touched me about the telecast was one old black woman. She was extremely emotional, greatly touched by his swearing ceremony. The pride on her face; to see a black man (an African) taking oath to the most powerful position in the world. It is probably for the first time in the history of Africa that an African has raised to such great heights. More so because Africans have always been looked down upon in history as slaves. Modern world talks about Africa as a poor, developing nation.


I sincerely wish Barrack Obama all the very best! He has a daunting task ahead of him. Barrack Obama spoke of hope & virtue. May god grace him with Honesty and Virtue. Good luck to the citizens of America.
