Giant birds in Blue skies

My Airbus soared up in the blue skies leaving clouds far below. At 41010 feet above ground level, I felt I was in God's land . A safe and secure feeling swept over.  Perfect time to introspect and reflect the mortal life I was living on Homo sapiens land. These giant birds give one's dream wings to fly 

It was me and the infinite sky. No boundaries, no countries, a feeling of brotherhood and sisterhood. Flying always gives me a deep lesson in life besides adrenaline surge, especially during takeoff.

When the plane is on the ground, the buildings near the terminal look massive, almost intimidating. But as the plane takes off and slowly ascends, the same structures start looking smaller and smaller until, they seem non-existent. Have the buildings shrunk? Of course not!  I’ve just risen above them.

Life’s challenges are a lot like those buildings. Sometimes enormous, at times unmovable and overwhelming.  But when we work on rising above, they start to seem smaller. Challenges may not change, but their effect on us definitely diminishes to an extent that it seems to disappear. 

So, next time when life feels too big to handle, just buy yourself an air ticket and rise above everything. On a practical note, fly in your mental spaceship. Trust me, the view from up there is always clear and better!

Letter to MOMSIE !

Letter to Momsie

Address : Heaven, God's own world. 

My ears yearn to listen to two words - 

Hello Raju ! 

My eyes look at my mobile screen to see one particular call - Incoming Momsie 

My heart longs to talk to you, to share my life, my accomplishments, success of my children.....list seems endless. 

Success seems incomplete without a word of encouragement from you. Though Popsie is there. 

Oh Maa .....forever is a long time to miss you! 

Time heals all wounds ! Really ! Some absences create deep scars in our hearts.  And time moving forward only seems to deepen our longing. 

Yet in this ache, I do find some comfort in small things - our old pictures, your fragrance in your favourite saree and dupatta, your slippers. Now these seem  like my connection with Heaven, which once existed on earth. 

Missing you forever seems like eternity. I keep you alive within me. As life moves forward, I am learning to walk without you. And creating new memories, in hope of finding a "New Normal".

Forever is a long time, but it also a testament to the ever lasting power of love. 

Love from my world to your world 

Till we meet again …up there! 

Love , 

Joojoo ( Yours Raju)
