Inner strength

Leaves dance with joy,,
in the cool breeze
welcoming the rain.
They quiver with fear,
when lashed by thunderstorms.

It doesn't really matter,
how old or what color
they are.
all that matters,
is how they weather the storm.


Why can't we,
emulate the leaf
and move on
from outer beauty
to inner strength?

Shakti Revisited

It's been one of those dream come true sundays, where everything goes the way one wants it to. The highlight of the day being the Remember Shakti concert we attended today at Shaniwarwada,Pune, the ancient fort a magnificient back drop to soul stirring music . John McLaughlin's guitar, zakir Husain's tabla,U.Srinivas's mandolin, Selvaganesh on the kanjira and Shankar Mahadevan's vocals created magic!
Lovely evening, beautiful day! It is indeed such moments that make me believe in the eternal beauty of life!!!
