Bloodline

In the wilderness of heartbreak and a desert of despair
Evil’s clarion of justice shrieks a cry of naked terror
Taking babies from their mamas
Learning grief beyond compare
So you see the vultures coming
Flying circles in your mind
Remember there is no escaping
For he will follow close behind
Only promise me a battle for your
soul and mine, and mine
Grief beyond compare

them at all times

Contented as the Eye
Upon the Forehead of a Bust
That knows — it cannot see —

" everyone is entitled to his own opinion , but not his own facts. - Daniel Patrick Moynihan.

Friendship

Actual friendship is more than a thumbnail photo on your Facebook page. It
is a claim that people make on one another, with ethical obligations all
it's own. One of those is to learn more about one another- even if it means
occasionally risking discomfort. When you find a way (without offending or
preaching) to talk about the big uncomfortable mysteries that linger
between you, you will begin to make good on that claim. Oiiio

Kashmir - Jahangir Quote

Kashmir was the heaven for Jahangir. His famous words, “Gar firdaus, ruhe
zamin ast, hamin asto, hamin asto, hamin ast” (If there is ever a heaven on
earth, it's here, it's here, it's here), are now the tourism signature line
for the state
मेरे पास से गुजर कर मेरा हाल तक ना पूछा
मैं ये कैसे मान जाऊ के वो दूर जा के रोया
तेरे पास से जो गुजरे तो जुनू मे थे फराज
जब दूर जा के सोचा तो जार जार रोये

Tere Paas Se Jo Guzre to Junoon me Thay Faraz... Jb Door ja k Socha to Zaar
Zaar Roye.

Most of Our Deepest Wounds (quote)

Most of our deepest wounds are often self-inflicted, and thus all the more
painful because there is no one else to blame.
