Be the flame, not the moth...

Things don't always end up the way you planed or hoped, sometimes they are better then you could imagine.. but most of the times they suck.. (and if you were giving TOEFL, the question would be "whom did g.w refer to with 'they' ? " )

Everybody's looking for that something

One thing that makes it all complete

You'll find it in the strangest places

Places you never knew it could be...

Life generally takes a left turn right when you had them all, an awesome job, great friends you can call up at 3 in the morning saying you wanted to talk and they would talk right till sunrise, so called everlasting love, a happening life, everyone u loved happy.. and a very good dream…

Some find it in the faces of their children

Some find it in their lovers' eyes

Who can deny the joy it brings

When you find that special thing

You're flying without wings

Just when you wanted to take the straight road to the highway, you come across a red signal..You figure taking the free left turn you could save some valuable seconds.

How often do you wake up to a really loud alarm clock (that I ought to replace real soon) thinking what if you had not taken the left turn?

Some find it sharing in every morning

Some in their solitary lives

You'll find it in the works of others

A simple line can make you laugh or cry

If you believe in faith and destiny then how much are you willing to put on it (I am not that good a gambler if you didn't know already, ask me that some day, it's a really nice story ), how long are you willing to wait for something to happen?

Truth is you make your own destiny (and if you can cook, and your mom finds out, you make your own Maggie ), you chose your own path in life, no one forces you to take one route and leave the other, but whichever route you take, that becomes your destiny. Whatever happens your fate.

You'll find it in the deepest friendships

The kind you cherish all your lives

And when you know how much that means

You have found that special thing

You're flying without wings

Sometimes you think your dream was just a stupid child fantasy..

Then you realize the awesome job was the icing described by people who are tying to sell you a stone, the friends've gone abroad and it costs 20Rs per min to call them.. worst is you don't even get the synchronous sunrises. The love is over in a matter of 10 days, or was it love to start with? Happiness is just a show we put up isn't it, just to keep the ones around you not wondering what the hell is wrong with you. Are we that superficial that we have to smile even when we feel like crying?

It's the little things that only I know

Those are the things that make you mine, all mine

And it's the flying without wings

Some rock stars dying words ( by that I mean the suicide note ) were, its better to burn out than to fade away.. As for me, I am not sure which way I have to go..Right now, the wrong left turn left me in the middle of nowhere, in case you are there too, well can meet up at the coffee day counter ( they seem to have branches everywhere ).

You're the place my life begins

And you'll be where it ends

I'm flying without wings

And that's the joy it brings

I'm flying without wings

But one things for sure, I can't be the moth!!!!

You might not understand the post fully, you need to really know me to do that, and since you don't, well you cant. The song in italics is Flying Without Wings by Ruben S ( American Idol winner few years back )
