காதலிக்க நேரமில்லை!!!

என்னை தேடி காதல் என்ற வார்த்தை அனுப்பு!
உன்னை தேடி வாழ்வின் மொத்த அர்த்தம் தருவேன்
செல்லரிக்கும் தனிமையில் செத்துவிடும் முன்
செய்தி அனுப்பு!

என்னிடத்தில் தேக்கி வைத்த காதல் முழுதும்
உன்னிடத்தில் கொண்டு வர தெரியவில்லை
காதல் அதை சொல்லுகின்ற வழி தெரிந்தால்
சொல்லி அனுப்பு...
பூக்கள் உதிரும் சாலை வழியே
பேசி செல்கிறேன்
மரங்கள் கூட நடப்பது போலே
நினைத்து கொள்கிறேன்
கடிதம் ஒன்றில் கப்பல் செய்து
மழையில் விடுகிறேன்
கனவில் மட்டும் காதல் செய்து
இரவை கொள்கிறேன்

யாரோ உன் காதலில் வாழ்வது யாரோ
உன் கனவினில் நிறைவது யாரோ
என் சலனங்கள் தீர்த்திட வாராயோ!
ஏனோ, என் இரவுகள் நீள்வது ஏனோ
ஒரு பகல் என சுடுவது ஏனோ!
என் தனிமையின் அவஸ்தைகள் தீராதோ!
காதல் தர நெஞ்சம் காத்து இருக்கு,
காதலிக்க அங்கு நேரம் இல்லையா?
இலையை போல் என் இதயம் தவறி விழுதே!!!

Its one of my favourite lyrics, and the song is very mild and nice to hear, composed by Vijay Antony. Even its a title song for a tamil serial on vijay tv, its been noticed and popular because of its unique beauty!

A Weekend Getaway

It’s Yelagiri at 12/20! Where I got a good time and an off, from my recent project pressures. It’s a wonderful two days trip with Chan, Keerthi, Mak & Jai. Subbu missed this trip, as he’s going to umpire a cricket tournament in his office as he’s a legend & dictionary of cricket [;)]

I was one to initiate this trip and to make these people to bend from their tight schedules. We started from Chennai afternoon by 2pm and it’s a big chatting travel. Makesh updated about Ivesia happenings and Jai mostly about his new office environments, Chan started updating about his HCL experiences and especially his new girl friend [often calls with her petname], I and keerthi were just commenting over their speech. We took our lunch off late in a motel on NH and a thrilling experience is Chan’s driving, as he learnt driving recently. Its ok, but we were just watching each vehicle there on the road and commanding him. Keerthi’s mokkai jokes and comments, and especially his “Athirichi paithiyam” comments, made our stomach pain.

We reached driving the mountain by evening and it’s a spectacular treat for our eyes. On climbing the roads, entire town nearby were twinkling with their glittering lights. Luckily we got one of Jai’s friend’s guest house and it’s a silent stay on a rhythmic calm snow night. Quick shopping, quarrelling cooking, drinks [not me & chan ;)] and a big chat[About politics, terrorism, kollywood, movies, etc., ] were the packages of our night.

A snowy morning and a very cold bed, Oops! Climate is chill and it’s a nice dawn. We are ready for our trekking and started, but came very soon because of tiredness. Reason for tiredness were Chan’s lengthy explanation about mak's .net doubts [He didn’t leave C# and .net even in hills] and diplomatically because of my obese ;) Its time to leave and there were a big photo sessions around the guest house as it had a greenish lawn and nice flowery gardens around. After the sessions, got down from that small hill, and again the chatty travel started and ended in a good restaurant.

Reached Chennai evening and felt in this polluted bin.

Driver’s In-Sync

I always like to travel in the first seat near to the Driver, in any vehicle I travel. Either it might by car or bus. In trains, they won’t allow?. There were many interesting reason behind this action. I can see the traveling views on the road in full-scale. Especially in a city bus, it seems, I’m the only passenger. Also we can escape from the inside quarrels and crowd?. But it’s hard to get that hot seat.

Now focus to the Driver. Sometimes I watch his leg and hand movements to the steering and the accelerator. It’s a tuff job, in city bend streets. And sometimes very bad words on the trespassers, who come in his path to disturb his, driving. By that time, he tries to negotiate his action to me, that time we need to respond him with our so called blushing smile?. Comments about the traffic, curses on roads, claims on highway police, current politics, climate etc., are free preaching from him. If they see fellow drivers on their same route or branch, sure there will be ketchup greetings. Some share good humanity on old passengers and passers-by.

One powerful thought on this travel close with driver is, like god drives our life, we are idle, I’m idle and the driver in his trembling action for my every movement in travel.

It’s true, Right?

Thanks given!

Thanks Jawans!

Thanks Forces!

Thanks Reporters!

Thanks Armed!

Thanks Public!

Thanks Terrorists!, Gave us a chance to prove you again “Terror, never be an tool to protest”

Finally Thanks Victims!, Your death speeds the path to peace!

Frailty on our shoes

It’s a moment to confess.

An unacceptable inhumane fight is been on the run for the past decades. It came to final agony. But we still protest with fully commercial fasting declarations, party advertising meetings and hopeless consoles.

An instance is our voice for the Srilankan Tamils will not reach the people at superior and the victims will again be the Tamils at the bottom. They are not even ready to give voice against a global melancholy.

Even we are not united, in saying a very bold protestation. We dispute among ourselves in prioritizing our community powers. We label our communal identity on our forehead and there is a great level of distraction on our voice. We beat ourselves and miss our voice for the victims.
Recent incidents on the Chennai law college premises, was totally disgraceful. It shows the truth that before advising others, we need to get advised. “Law makers should not be Law breakers!” it’s my past lesson. But it’s my present television show.

It’s again, like many says, "It all happens!” But everything is recorded; it’s going to be future history.

That Butterfly in Chaos Theory

We might’ve heard about chaos theory in "Dasavatharam" film and seen the butterfly effect on the screen. But I feel it in my real life these days. Yeah! There were recent distresses that made me to map about this theory to my daily life. This says, that there may be an unknown reason and interlink between each poles of the earth's actions.

Last week, I heard job termination calls from four of my friends from their companies. It really made me unhappy and made me worried about their situations. Job search and relocations are easy to have, but the sudden shock and their unplanned activities? I was speechless and I didn’t know how to console them. Its transparently because of the US financial market down, made our people to think more cautious and to pursuit media. Now they plan very carefully and move the coins very carefully. Its again the people at the bottom, should get affected, not the people on the safer side. An associate can be given pink slip, but not the unplanned managers and superiors.

Instead asking them to go out of the job, they can minimize the salary percentage for overall employees with very least percentages and that will even be reasonable to share the loss of the companies.

Globalization is a crucial play on the financial planning and dependencies. Financial consulates and monetary giants know the balances for the future. Hoping for the best scenarios to come, these problems will be meager in number.

Butterflies on the move.......

Mercy Island

They cry for land,

They shout for life,

They feel for native,

They miss to sleep,

They long for food,

They hear quarrels,

They wander like beasts,

They should fight,

They are alone,

They are pity,

They label tamil,

They pray for peace,

I feel for them,

Changes are permanent,

Waiting for the change to come!!!

உயிரில் கலந்த உறவுகள்

எனது நீண்ட நாள் ஆசை, தமிழில் ஒரு முறை Blog எழுத வேண்டும் என்பது. ஆனால் இதற்காக நான் கடின பட்டது ஒரு தனி கதை. ஏன் என்றால் பிற மொழியின் ஆதிக்கம் நம் மீது மிக அதிகமாக இருப்பதனால்தான். இந்த தலைபிற்க்கும், இந்த தமிழ் மொழி எழுதலுக்கும், நிறைய சம்பந்தம் உண்டு. ஏன் என்றால், தமிழும், என் உயிரின் கலந்த உறவே.

தமிழுக்கும் அமுதென்று பேர், இந்த தமிழ் இன்ப தமிழ் எங்கள் உயிருக்கு நேர்!. பாரதிதாசனின் இந்த வரிகளை படிக்கும் பொழுது, நான் மெய் சிலிர்த்து போவேன். இது போல், நமது உயிரினில் கலந்து விட்ட சில உறவுகளை பற்றி பறிமாறி கொள்ள விரும்புகிறேன்.

தாய், தந்தை, அண்ணன், தங்கை இவ்வாறு பல ரத்த சம்பந்த உறவுகளுடன், எந்த சம்பந்தமும் இல்லாமல், எந்த எதிர்பார்ப்பும் இல்லாமல், நமக்குள் ஒரு வித நிரந்தரமான அன்பையும், மாற்றத்தையும், ஈர்ப்பையும் ஏற்படுத்தும் உறவுகளை எண்ணி வியக்கிறேன். அவர்கள் பல பேருக்கு அவர்களுடைய நண்பர்களாகவும், மனைவியாகவும், கணவனாகவும், காதலன், காதலியகாவும், ஏன் சில பிரபலங்கலாகவும், விளையாட்டு வீரர்களாகவும் இருக்கலாம். இவர்களுக்கு ஏதெனும், சிறு இன்னல் ஏற்பட்டாலும், நமது எண்ணம், செயல் முடங்கி அவர் பக்கமே செல்வதேன்? இவர்களை நேரில் பார்த்து பேசாமல் இருந்தால் கூட, அவர்களிடம் இருக்கும் அன்பு சிறிதும் குறையாமல் இருப்பதேன்? இவர்கள் சிறு தவறு செய்தாலும், அதனை பொருத்து, அவரை வழி நடத்தி செல்ல முடிவதென்? இப்படி பல "ஏன்" களுக்கு விடை, அவர்கள் "உயிரில் கலந்து விட்ட உறவுகள்".

கண்ணதாசனின் சில வரிகளை, இங்கே நினைவு படுத்த விரும்புகிறேன். "ஆலம் விழுதுகள் போல், உறவுகள் ஆயிரம் இருந்துமென்ன? வேரென நீ இருந்தாய், அதில் நான் வீழுந்து, விடாதிருந்தேன்"!

NightLife

This is one of the reasons, for my missing frequency of posts :)

These days, I'm happened to stay late in office 'cos of targets, deliveries, client discussions. Its really a hard practice, when our time elongates, onsite guys from US, starts their day with our ending day. It keeps on stretching for us, makes irritating sometimes. Most of the onsite-offshore discussions, end up with quarrels, that's on different post ;)

Now time to share my (late) Night Life! Mostly after 11 or 12, I start to home in office cab. It’s an interesting journey. Nice breeze, entire silent Chennai streets, drizzling rains (rare), FM nice melodies, Meagre traffic. It’s a thrilling package. Cos, so called busy streets like Pondy bazaar, T.nagar roads looks so silent, as it seems to me, that they too gone for sleep.


Streetsiders, Traffic policemen, Highway drivers, Fastfood cooks, Flowershoppers, Gulfi Selling guys [Gulfi on midnight is a different story ;)] etc., were active members of this Night life.

That 20-30 minutes journey is a cool journey, mostly I like to hear songs, replying missed calls n SMS of friends, sometimes good snaps for my orkut album :). Also I like to look at the moon n cloud movements, its very nice experience. As it seems, just missing all the sorrows n pains to them.

Apart from the stressful day, Nightlife ll be a good treat for a ending note.

Innocent Prayers

From one of the forwarded mails from Mujib[Courtesy], which i liked very much insisted me, to 've a post. As we might 've done this on our infancy.

I just got this mail with pictures of the kids who has written this. I hope the situation will be like, kids were asked to write a letter to god with their prayers. Now some of the innocent prayers on the queue.

"Dear God, I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church! Is that ok?"
[Sure we would 've also had this thought in our mind, when we see people enjoying their romance in temples :D]

"Dear God, If you watch in church on sunday. I will show you my new shoe" [Innocence at its best, nice right?]

"Dear God, Please send Dennis Clark to a different camp this year" [Even I prayed god for a history master, to get transferred at my school age :D]

"Hello God, Instead of letting people die and haveing [Check the spelling] to make new ones why don't you just keep the ones you got now?" [How matured at thought at the small age]

So cute like a art, when i saw with their own handwritings! Even I had many prayers like these to god, at my early age and now. Some came to live & some yet to come. But I believe prayers are making to raise the confidence level on each thing we pray.

I like to quote a proverb here which would be apt, "Prayers are same, praying lips are different"!!!

Friends & Polygon

Today I got a good view on friendship & friends v 've. We can draw our friends with polygons. Yeah true! Interesting!!

But before going into this analysis, i like to quote a good statement about friendship. As Friendship is divine & a good feel, I don't want to describe it with my Amateur statements. But I really love this kural,"Udukkai izhanthavan kai pol ange, idukkan kalaivatham natpu". It means, like a hand when the cloth on ur waist moves, a friend will reach you, when you are in trouble. Such a wonderful comparison, and we all might 've felt this once in our life for sure.

Back to the analysis :D, we take circle, square & triangle. Circle is often called with Friends. Yes friends circle, forms different levels. Inner,Mid & Outer. To the friends with whom you can share all your inner heart feelings and feel yourself within them might come in Inner circle. And the circle extends according to the intimacy, wavelength you have with them.

Square friends are someone like Groups. You may 've them as a group, or had them, when you are into a community or campus etc., Most of the friends in this Square, are interconnected. They all know each other. Sometimes "square" can fit in a "circle" too ;)

And finally Triangle. You will be having some good friends by reference :D. Yeah! someone might 've introduced you a good friend and you will have a good level of relations within this triangle.

So how many circles, squares & triangles you 've?? I leave the other polygons to your choice to bend with :)

Regardless of the polygons, after all friends & friendship are to shape our life! As like a polygon!!!

All about to start

First Post!!!

To start with good words i like..... Mom, Clouds, Flowers, Kids, Ecstasy, Humanity, Moon, etc., etc.,... even i like the word etc., Yes its extra, to add to something..... even this blog is extra to me, as it ll help me to
record something to this world and for me.

Normally, human will be in a passion to express their thoughts in some way they like, kids express their thoughts by laughter & cryings, some people through art. But as people like us, the "IT" imprinted :D needs a outlet to express(scribble) themselves using technology, in their hand. Blogs help them.

The main motive of this blog is just to share the thoughts, communicate good things, develop good relations, maintain the habit of (lost) writing...etc.,especially for self-satisfaction.

So to start with, is a good start always....!!!
