fRoM tHE cAnVas oF lIfe...

Our lives are blessed with lots of things that make this journey a worthwhile experience..
i have had my fair share of blessings in life, actually much more than i probably deserve  & most of these have come into my world as people, so much so that i get paranoid sometimes that i may lose it all as i wake up from this lovely dream of mine.
Like everyone else out there, it has not been a well-treaded path for me.life so far has been good since i managed to find travellers along the way,sometimes they were competitors who turned into friends,my brethrens..they caught me whenever i slipped,never letting me falll.& i've tried to be of as much help to them as i can be,as much as is in my power.
they say,goodness can be inspired by others but is sustained & guided by the a power inside you.
many a times i've come across people who've made me ponder over my actions & they've had a role to play in the changes that have come about in me,all for the good,for the better.people have influenced me a lot,in varied ways;some i admire;some i wish i could just hold on to & never lose..all have filled my life with colors,so much so that its a rainbow now!& now that i see this picture of my existence,i cant figure out which of these lovely shades was my own color?! i have a thought here.maybe i m not a color among the many shades,maybe i m the canvas on which they are spread.
 
I remember admiring a kite-filled sky..full of lovely colors floating,rising,shining & then disappering from sight..if these kites are the people who decorate my sky,then maybe i'm not a kite among the many..maybe i am the string that is holding them all together.& if life works this way,then maybe for someone else, i could be a color too.. i could be a green for someone,or a white for another person.maybe i hold the place of mighty black in someone's canvas;i dont personally appreciate that color but i realise its not my choice. however i'd really like being a red,it just feels like the correct shade to be..
 
The colors add liveliness to life,they change,some get brighter, some just fade away but all leave a mark of their presence & thats the best part of the painting! 

What colour would u wannna be???

  3. David Russell once said,"Life to me is a journey - you never know what may be your next destination" and so does the fellow travellers. What important is that you enjoy your stay with fellow beings, because you dont know for how much time he is with you. And you have with you quality memories.

    Nice ideas and so is presentation with appropriate metaphors. :)
