its good to have mirrored closet doors .. keeps reminding you that you are fat  ;)

you need inspiration from time to time  ..  in some format .. I, right now draw inspiration from all kinds of soul stirring music pieces....transports me from reality into a new realm .. even though briefly ... i wish i could just linger there .. forever

When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake, and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots are become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the desire to mate every second of the day. It is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every part of your body. No... don't blush. I am telling you some truths. For that is just being in love; which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over, when being in love has burned away...


from the movie Captain Corelli's Mandolin:

impressive lyrics ...

Here are some of my most favorite lines from the recent tamil movie songs that are stuck on replay on my ipod ..

1. netru varai neram pogavillaye,
unadharugey neram podhavillaye!

netru thevai illai naalai thevai illai indru
indha nodi podhumey- madrasapatnam

2. endha kaatrin alaavalil malaridhazhgal malarndhidumo?
endha deva vinaadiyil mana araigal thirandhidumo?
oru siru vali irundhadhuve idhayathile idhayathile..
unadhiruvizhi thadaviyadhal avizhndhu viten mayakathile
unadhalaigal enaiyadika karai servadhum
kanaavil nigazhndhida .. - varanam aayiram

3. azhagin motham neeya?
nee aayiram vinmeen thiratiya punnagaya?

nooru kodi thasai
ovvondrilum undhan perae isai - Endhiran

4. kaadal ondru oindhadhu
kavithai ondru mudindhadhu
naan thedum bodhey thiolaindhadhu anbe!

kaadalil vizhundha idhayam meetka mudiyaadhadhu
kanavil tholaindha nijangal meendum kidaikaadhadhu

iru manam sergayil pizhaigal poruthu kondaal enna
iru dhisai paravaigal inaindhu vinnil sendraal enna - Ayirathil oruvan

5.en kadal solla neramillai
un kaadal solla thevai illai
nam kaadal solla vaarthail illai
unmai maraithaalum marayadhadi
un kayyil sera ekam illai
un tholil saaya aasai illai
endru poi solla theriyadhadi - Payya

6.Unn nanbanillai naan un vaanin nila
Unn nanbannillai nee yen uyirin vizha… - Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya

a beautiful qoute....

Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away. ~Dinah Craik, A Life for a Life, 1859

Well, this is me ... !

I am a sentimental fool; i get overwhelmed by emotions, Yes I cry a lot but im not weak! Words hurt me more than anything else; im not irascible, so can't handle the ones that are...; making relationships for life is more important to me than winning arguments; am not demanding but that doesn't make me any less fun; i am all 'heart' and believe that love is the only answer to all ... Most often i get accused for wearing my heart on my sleeve, but who cares , thats what makes me "me"...the special ME !! :)

The Secret ...

She was young. Didnt take much for her Friends and family to obliterate her confidece. Just a few pellet like words here and there did the job just right. She buried her tears along with a devastated heart in her pillow every single night. She grew up to believe that she aint good enough. So many years of conditioning led her to believe that she will never be accepted for who she was.
But one glorious morning she knew it was time to change, not herself but what she believed in. She figured that it was never about other peoplpe but have always been about her.
Life threw in a lot of curves, she quickly learned to swerve. She knew she was beautiful. She began to walk differently. She chose forgiving over vengeful. She smiled a lot. She took sunshine wherever she went. She gave more than what she recieved. She made some precious associations for life. She IS happy....

The four letter Paradox

A tiring day after work .. and i tune into the radio.... i hear this song from Veyyil...

"Kadhal neruppin nadanam, uyirai urukki tholayum payanam
kadhal neerin salanam, puyalgal urangum kadalin mounam
kadhal maya ulagam, silandhi valayail siruthai maattum"

Love is a series of contradictions - aint it?
It is an emotion thats hard to contain,
harder to elucidate,
It is indomitable yet isnt palpable,
It is tender, but also tenacious,
it may not always be a volicient choice,
nevertheless makes you smile. At least briefly,
It is the toxin and also the quintessential elixir........!
