The Light that outshines Darkness

Psalms 88 (NIV) A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. For the director of music. According to mahalath leannoth. A maskil of Heman the Ezrahite. 1 Lord, you are the God who saves me; day and night I cry out to you. 2 May my prayer come before you; turn your ear to my cry. 3 I am overwhelmed with troubles and my life draws near to death. 4 I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am like one without strength. 5 I am set apart with the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more, who are cut off from your care. 6 You have put me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths. 7 Your wrath lies heavily on me; you have overwhelmed me with all your waves. 8 You have taken from me my closest friends and have made me repulsive to them. I am confined and cannot escape; 9 my eyes are dim with grief. I call to you, Lord, every day; I spread out my hands to you. 10 Do you show your wonders to the dead? Do their spirits rise u...

Void : Absence of What?

By -
The definition of "void" (confusion) is pretty exciting. It stems from the absence of something (clarity). Often, when you find a void, you are able to figure out what is missing. Have you ever come across a scenario where you just feel a void and are not able to figure out what is it that you are missing? It is a reasonable approach to ask WHY. In this post, I will try to answer everything in a Q&A format where I shall analyze this "void" philosophically. Why do we feel a void? Something is absent, the essence is you won't stumble upon a "void" unless you are expecting something. To rephrase, it is one's expectation that leads to the discovery of a "void". Why is it not obvious what is absent? This question won't be valid if you can figure out what is absent. It takes a deeper line of introspection to figure out what is it that one is missing so badly, that they encounter a "void". Well, it leads me to fig...

Mother [POEM]

As the little girl grows fast , And the years go past , She brooded over the moments left behind by you…. Mother !! Lots of dilemmas , Pots of confusions , She want all of them to be straightened up by you….Mother !! As the intensity of life touches it’s height , Alone she fumbles & crosses all the hurdles out , She lamented for hours on searching for your love….Mother !! Whenever she feels blue, whenever she falls sick , Whenever she gets moisty eyes , She urges your presence….Mother !! She screams , she cries , she breaks, But again she holds it back , Only by reminiscing you….Mother !! Sometimes she wonders , If she could take you over , Before she realises the uncertainity….Mother!! She missed you , she misses you now , And further she will miss you more , As no substitute can stand over you…Mother !!                     ...

The Gap

By -
I've often wondered how physics relates to engineering. Well people may take me for a fool but I believe that in spite of the obvious links between them, they are in some measures, disjoint. Well, no use bickering. Let me start from the very beginning. When I was an overenthusiastic (and I don't mean it in the good sense) student in high school, I was always fascinated by physics. I used to dream physics, drink physics, eat physics and even sleep with physics(not in the way you think).        Then came a dark phase in my life which is no stranger to an Indian student: 11th and 12th standards. Well, I had opted for science and I really loved it. There was absolutely no doubt there. However, owing to popular media, I was gripped by what I refer to as the 'Engineer Fever'. This fever was so intense that it made me forget my love for physics and only concentrate on scoring high on the JEE scale.  Well fortunately, I did a moderate take. ...

Sink to Rise [POEM]

By -
Image
via Commaful The anchor of anxiety weighs me down, Under its Herculean pressure, I drown, Looking back at the mistakes I frown; For stupidity, if there was a crown, On my head, it would aptly lay down. Ship of my aspirations will sink, Nothing will stay but this ink, All will be over in a blink, Can't care about what others think, When my ship is filled to the brink. In my own ship, I have dug a hole, I am the reason for my misery sole, Eternal damnation, into which I fall, From all perils and snare, I appall, The error is mine as far as I recall. This fall is not the eternal end, Its a cue to introspect, I apprehend, With the norms of society, I blend, In solitude and symphony my life I mend, Your support is all I need, my friend. Like a Phoenix, from my ashes, I will rise, Not everything that sinks dies, Hope is easily found in those eyes, Whose beholder has a mind so wise, Hopes so high, it extends beyond skies. ...

Eternal Death [POEM]

via Commaful Loneliness is forever present in our life. Happiness comes but seldom in life and leaves as quick as it had appeared. Grieve as you must, loneliness is our true companion. And it'll forever be in our lives.

No Need to Hide [POEM]

By -
via Commaful Why do we assume certain things regarding certain people? Life is too short to misjudge anyone or anything. The cost of a small error can cause collapse of great proportions. Butterfly effect is for real! -Inspired by Alan Walker's "Tired"
