YOUR Dream!

Seeking a Great Perhaps
Last week reading through John Green’s debut novel ‘Looking for Alaska’ left me pondering over a very important thing – “Seeking a Great Perhaps”.

When asked by his parents as to why he wanted to leave, holding a biography of Francois Rabelais, he replies : “Francois Rabelais. He was a poet. And his last words were “I go to seek a Great Perhaps.” That’s why I’m going. So I don’t have to wait until I die to start seeking a Great Perhaps.”

Dreams that steal my sleep !
Some time back I was discussing with a dear friend of mine about how dreams have the power to change lives.

A World in My Dream
Take me far away,
Away from the worries,
Of this meddlesome world..
Take me to the lakes,
Where unicorns stop by,
To talk with the quacking ducklings..
Take me somewhere calm and quiet,
Away from the hustled city life,
In green paddy fields,
Where I can lay, gazing at the stars..
