Reflections at 33

Age is but a number
Energy the true measure
Enthusiasm the yardstick
At a stage when I'm neither young
Nor old, just indefinable

Through marriage and motherhood
Mind did transform
Sometimes, I'm oh so wise
At others, a total sensitive baby

Desires and ambitions are still so many
Somehow, life feels like offcourse and incomplete
Struggles and disappointments
Joys and miracles
Occur in ebbs and bays

Expectations, I realise, are the slow killers
Desires tend to expectations
Comparisons strengthen the desires
Without desires, there would be no expectations
But without desires, would there be life?

Rigid dreams

You try so hard
Make it all perfect
Just like you imagined
In your head

When it does materialise
You just realise that...

In the whole process
Of making it this exact way
You lost the joy of getting there
It became a mechanical exercise
There was nothing organic
About the way it turned out
And then all joy was lost
The result perfect
The heart gaping looking for more

Happiness is not transforming that image in your head into reality by hook or crook.
It's accepting what's happening
Appreciating what's there
Working towards the dream but without an iron mind
Leaving room for changes as may be necessary with context and time

There were times when I was excited to try something new everytime. No movie twice. No place revisit. It had to be fresh

But now somehow I love doing the same things over and over. It always feels different each time though.

First time is not as important as fresh eyes!

Let's wish , not be washed off by addiction

There is a difference between addiction and a wish. When the want to get something, be it coffee, a date or a drink becomes so important in our mind that it eats up our brain space to the extent of leaving lesser room for thinking, maybe that is an addiction or an obsession.
A wish, on the other hand is something one may really want it but is cognizant of the current circumstances that have caused it's non attainment, but trusts the future and is able to wait patiently for the appropriate opportunity.

A great marriage is one where each partner strives to help the other achieve their aspirations as if it were their own

Brilliant under the
Mysterious star lit sky
More so in loving company

What we take for granted:

I couldn't enjoy the flavours in my chai
The strong ginger was wasted on me
I didn't realise the milk was getting burnt
I could see the flower, it evoked nothing in me
The incense sticks were letting out smoke alright but added nothing to the aura
Only when you lose something you realise it's value
That's how I feel without my sense of smell

Motherhood and it's progression

I think it's quite a beautiful age when your little darling is 2.5 to 3 years, like mine. I feel his infinite love, pure and indented by wants, or any motives.
It's really like a love I never knew through all these years. I soak in it , I let myself have it for as long as it will last.
It's the love of a child who is aware of his environment, love with authority of our relationship, and undeniable caring.
If only we all could love like that! Wonder what restricts love in the adult world. Is it the heart wounded with time?

How things can change
Like the flowing wind
What was true for so long
Is now just a distant memory

Dear chinnamma

I cherish every moment with you
There is so much beauty in your face
Naughtiness behind your smile
A divine innocence in those eyes
Honesty in your every emotion
A charm in your walk and style
You create joy wherever you are darling
Picking up new things absorbing like a sponge
Bless you with all happiness and peace
Love love and more love
Thanks for brightening all my days
With your purity

Yours,
Amma
