Pray

Pray... thats what a friend had told me once. he said it has very strong powers- something deep and transcending which makes impossible seem possible. i have been praying for a while now. to overcome everything that i lack, for the strength to carry on, to help deal with worry, for my loved ones, to be able to be sane in this insane world. I pray for the hundreds who have lost their lives in the recent bombay blasts, for their families to have courage, for the evil minds to have sense and sensibility who planned these attacks in the first place, for the people- to learn to live in the city from which i am so far away. its never going to be the same again. i somehow remember these words right now... be compassionate, u dont know what battle the other person is waging.

Last few days have been weird. i have been overwhelmed with incessant worry about relationships, career and life at large. but inspite of everything i am thankful for a lot of things. thankful for a mind that has been balanced, for family, for the sun, for the ability to believe in myself....for being alive!
