    Can we enjoy first and then dream in retrograde?
    Like having pizza for dinner, and then dream about pizza for dinner?
    Don't hit me ma'am... I was just dreaming about how nice it would be :banana:

    LOL ma'am, then I have to go to Leh, come back and then dream of the journey! Then it will no longer remain an unrealized dream!

    Exactly. Tha's my point.
    Realize first, then dream.
    Problem solved. No more sadness.

    If Mohammed cannot come to the mountain, make the mountain go to Mohammed... now u truly are going to hit me for twisting this adage :)

    (Note for all: this is just playful interaction; a liberty that I often take with @satchitananda ., becausel she is sat-chit-ananda:))

    So many dreams and so many hopes,
    So many colours and so much of action,
    A blanket of reality covered them all
    Leaving behind a few sepia-tinted memories!

    I dust my memories with love
    Whenever the bug of nostalgia bites.
    A few sighs and a few tears, and
    A familiar pain tries to choke up the throat!

    The mobile alarm rings
    Breaking my weary reverie
    It's time to head back to the kitchen
    And attack a sink full greasy pots and pans!

    This is my reality;
    Day in and day out
    Whether it rains or shines,
    Dear Satchi, today you touched a raw nerve!

    And so flows the river of life
    Full of never-ending strife
    Whether it be me or you
    Or he or she
    We are all one, aren't we?

    Thanks for the lovely response Geeta! Yes, there are moments which are ever so overwhelming. So much so that I was trying to figure out how I can realize my dream. Realistically, I know I am being silly, but I don't want to bury it while I am still up and about.

    To dream is to hope for a better tomorrow
    Never give it up till life gives up on you!

    *********************************
    Jab tak hai jaan
    Zindagi karen kitne bhi pareshaan
    hum na honge hairaan
    phir se badlenge apne gati aur vidhaan
    jab tak hai jaan, jab tak hai jaan!


    Bilingual poetries for you Satchi.:)
