A song that speaks my heart and mind..

-
Breakaway - Kelly Clarkson

As kids, we all have in us dreams of the things we wish to achieve in life- we are hopeful and we are fearless.. We all need a sense of belonging, of being a part of something incredible, and more importantly being incredible ourselves.. We all would want to take chances and challenge ourselves, but often fear and self doubt gets in the way and makes us settle for things..

This is why I love this song, and the message it delivers.. We all want to breakaway, to make wishes, take chances and make a change in the world..

Grew up in a small town 
And when the rain would fall down 
I'd just stare out my window 
Dreamin' of what could be 
And if I'd end up happy 
I would pray 

Trying hard to reach out 
But when I tried to speak out 
Felt like no one could hear me 
Wanted to belong here 
But something felt so wrong here 
So I prayed I could breakaway 

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly 
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky 
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change 
And breakaway 
Out of the darkness and into the sun 
But I won't forget all the ones that I love 
I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change 
And breakaway

The addictive intoxication of nostalgia, Leads many to the path of doom. Time and time again, they succumb, Flying into the Flame. Like moths, their insides burn, And their wings sing. They fall befuddled, Wondering where they went wrong.

Dreaming about the dreaming spires

From the moment my father handed me that first book which I hungrily demolished in a matter of days, it has been a dream, to study amidst its dreamy spires and brush shoulders with its legendary figures. Visiting King's Cross and the highlands of Scotland only served to cement my decision further. No prizes for guessing the Institute of Interest then. Attending a mundane university with the rest of the muggles holds no promise or excitement for someone like me, who is convinced that it is in the magical school of Hogwarts where I belong. Over the years, with each book of the series devoured, I have admired afar the interesting curriculum offered at Hogwarts. The sheer variety of interesting subjects offered is reason enough for me to pack my bags and zip my way through to Platform 9 3/4 and board the next Hogwarts Express to Hogwarts. Astronomy, Dark Arts, Flying, Potions, Transfiguration and Charms are so much more indispensable to human existence than the ubiquitous Biolo

love at first sight, they say

 At first a non believer, all Love took was a glance and talk at the local cafe, He walked into my life like a tornado and nothing remained the same. Flowers blossomed, birds chirped and the once lonely heart beat back to life. Years down the road, over some kathi rolls and coffee, We plan our happily ever after and laugh with glee.
