I am Inside you

I am inside you

Oh where are you searching for me
Where are you looking for me,

You will never find me in money
Cos I am not a thing which can be bought,

You will never get me by hurting others
Cos I can only be earned by helping others,

You will never gain me by living alone
Cos I am present in living together with love,

You will never chase me by running after you wishes
Cos I  can be found only when you start to accept what you have,

You can never fetch me by hating other
Cos I can only b

What if

What if we do not talk

Do not see each other for a long time

What if we do not walk

under the mid-night sun like before

What if you lost your interest

To make any phone call?

Nothing! I know,

There is words when we talk,

And, there is also something

When we do not talk!

when we see their smile means they feel happy

and sometimes they ask to the parents or adult people "what is this?"

Matchstick Only Burns Itself.

A tree can makes millions of matchsticks, but a matchstick can also burning millions of trees.

So, a negative thought can burn all positive thoughts. Every matchstick has a head, but does not have a brain.  Therefore, every time there is a little friction, the match burst into flames. We have a head, and also the brain, so we should not get angry just by a little friction. Everyone tends to think negative about themselves and their actions at some point or another. It is normal – BUT don't make i

Sharing Is Scaring

I am the light catcher, my job is catching the light and I put it into the eternity box....

These lights are farragoes, about a face of humans, expanse of lands, laughter of innocent children, growling of wild animals, flash of pain, the blood of the tortured, melancholic stories, tears and anger, untruth and artificiality.......

I'm catching all these lights and put them into my magic box and all the lights which I captured transform into memories....
