The Grass Is Greener Syndrome


I hear people saying things like you are lucky. your partner is good. He or she is nice. So you can do this or do that. It makes me laugh too. Maybe I have said the same things about others too. Thinking about others’ fortune , others’ luck, forgetting about what is lacking or how we can change or improve our own life.
                                                                 
When God will choose partners for each one of us, he is giving the key to a home. How you decorate the home is your choice. The things you choose to go inside is your interest. Instead of how to improve your life we compare our life with those of others. We create a  fantasy about the lives of others and feel sad about our own life. We forget that the mirror only gives a reflection.

Sometimes people say if you were me, you wouldn’t take this much. You don’t know the hardship of life. But we forget that as long as we didn’t tread on another person’s shoe, you don’t know what the other person went through. People are different. You choose things your way. But another person won’t choose your way. It is like colours. Different people like different colours. At the end it is about your view towards your life and your selections. 

Only we can make our life beautiful or a mess. It’s according to your thinking and your attitude towards life. When we look at someone else’s fortune we are missing our treasure. Life is based on balance. When we give importance to someone else’s life, our happiness will move away from us.  “ The Grass is always greener on the other side”

Happy Birthday Jamie

Time of the year
Reminds me of the jingle bells
I’m counting the days
Here comes February
And I know it will keep me busy

2nd February started with fun
Felt like Jason brought the school home
He enjoyed each moment of his Birthday
And exclaimed
Next year I will bring more friends!

I count the days to 22nd February
Each time I bought sweets
I collected one for you
When I am having fun
Thinking about your absence

My son it’s your Birthday
I didn’t call you every day
I didn’t write to you each day
But although you are far you are near

As you both stand side by side
I am a proud mother
When you do silly things
I just think I did the same

My son, make mistakes and learn from them
Each day learn something new
Read a book to gain knowledge
Write a diary to show your girl friends

Be gentle with friends around you
Never step on someone else's shoes
Be kind to all the things around you
Wishing you All Happiness throughout your life

Jamie, my first son you show the trails
Jason to follow
Mum and Dad will hold you both
So you will not fall
Spread the love to create Bliss
He will Bless as He has no choice

Silent Voice

When he tried to squeeze me,
I touched the chillness
My mood swings
And I felt the stillness

I made the noise
No one heard my voice
I was silent
And he took over me

In his strength,
I was weak
The teardrops fell
He found pleasure

I saw myself in the ground
Was I dead
Or was I raped
Whom to ask?

I hugged him
I created the harmony
They blamed shame
Scandals spiced.

Happy Valentines

On this Valentine’s day
I wonder what are you thinking
When I see you near
I can feel the vibes

I wouldn’t write to you
As you may not have the patience to read
I didn’t buy a gift
I am confused about what to choose

I’m irritated with my childishness
And you ease me with  your tolerance
Between chasing and fun
I tried to win the games

When we fall apart we walk silently
Still, you are there when I need you
When you call my name
It’s you that I am in love with

Alcohol Thoughts

She is gorgeous
Cheers made
You are singing
And she is sparkling

You hold onto her
She loves the eyes around
You feel proud
They hail you both

You are wiggling
And she is waggling  with you
Frequently you brush her lips
She glows in your hand

You felt like the hero
Twists and turns
She craved the passion
You were dazed in the spell

In your weakness she spiced
You forgot your existence
She seized your fortune
And love made you blind

She loved the muscles
You lost the strength
She hooked into new pals
Left you to count the pennies

They held you on your way
You looked frail
You advised them
And you became wise

Valentines Fun

As Valentine’s Day is near
I wondered what to give you
I bought a tub of Celebrations
So I can melt the chocolates on you

When you picked the Snickers I chose the Teases
When you went through Bounties, Caramel and Mars
I was watching your reflection
As you touched the Galaxy I knew you would love the Milky Way

You looked for teases and I grinned
The last one  in my mouth
If you want the taste, you have to win my heart
I teased you and you loved

I chose the variety as I know you will love it
You and me, we celebrate the Valentine
You taught me to love
So with who else would I mark the day?

Resentment

Fumes are covered
And jealousy spread
The vision is blurred
You gave me blues

Cheers of goodness
Boost the confidence
Courtesy spoke
You bubbled the wraps

Shades are hooded
Uncertainty cried
Eyes are gloomy
You have the show

Amused hearts
Cracked the ribs
Snoopers peeked
You were vexed

Misery is boxed
Key is lost
Hardship continues
Who has the profit?

Valentine Thoughts

When you are near my heart beats faster
Glittering eyes blink with you
Shimmering face wishes for your touch
So I know you are in love with me

When you hold my hands
And you move with me
I would like to read your mind
So I don’t miss your thoughts

When you are humming in my ears
And I giggle with you
I would like to drag you closer
So I can taste your lips

When you hold me close
And say I love you
I will beam with pleasure
So I know I chose the right lover

Finding Fun

I don’t care if you hate me

I am finding fun with him

I am talking to him from the morning

Between hectic work and challenges

I am finding fun with him

I am writing emails to men

They are replying as fast as they can

I am finding fun with them

Life is to enjoy

What comes next accept with a smile

He wrote and wrote

His computer is broken

I found fun in that

I smiled and didn’t say he will get a new one

I am finding fun in that

Inbox is flooding with emails

Moans around when passing calls

I am finding fun in everything

Boomerang is a good game

I don’t like to wait

I am impatient

If he makes me wait

I will kick him

I am finding fun in that

Be active and not be lazy

Do it as fast as you can

Life is to enjoy

I find fun in everything I do

So no one will complain

Life is not complaining

It’s too short to whimper

Grumpies will show their face

Just find fun in them too

As you know the world is there for you to live

Just live and let live.

Chasing Shadows

I have been chasing shadows from my childhood
Sometimes they are fun to play with
I always tried to stamp on my shadow
But it would run before or after and gave me no chance

As I grow old I am scared of the shadows
They frighten me in the darkness
I carry the angels to keep them away
In the midst of insecurity I draw the lines

I trail the shadows of my companions
I get the chance to make my mark on their hearts
Between excitement and insanity some take it wisely
And I try to love the shadows that I come across

The shadows alter their sizes and shapes
They voice stories of haunted frames
Shadows taught me fact and fantasy
I flouted the shades to fill with melody.
