in the spider's web

that was then. it had seemed easy. now, everything ends up as a meaning. everything makes sense. nothing can be left out, its scary, how much meaning life suddenly has.

they say char din ki zindagi, and then also say, its your life, make it large.
which one do i follow?

i have always been a believer, a reasoner, a worshipper of words, and yet there are so many that give me company, its difficult to understand which is the best friend amongst so many. some words are rogue you know.

there are times when the believer is mocked,
times when the lover is doubted,
times when nothing matters,
and times when even the bright blue water of the river makes the most beautiful meaning..

i am a writer stuck, a human worked up, a believer fussed.

Aage bhi jane na tu,
peeche bhi jane na tu.
jo bhi hai, bas yehi ek pal hai..

    I don't think the two are contradictory.. just elminiate the middle... "char din ki zindagi hai so make it large" :)

  3. I saw this video where it said that forget about average life expectancy and imagine ul die tomoro! (smthn like that and i know it's cliched) but makes sense, what i interpret from it is that I need not wait. I plan for future and today is yesterday's future! hence i shud LIVE it up!! at the same time there's a good chance i'll see tomoro so i shud make sure that tomoro isn't fucked up either. so life is a balance b/w today and tomoro! :D
