Isn't It A Wonder

Isn't everything a wonder... the breaking sun, the chirping birds and the storm in Delhi..

I welcomed this year with a mixed bag of emotions to say the least. Stood at a life-altering threshold with high expectations punctuated with ubiquitous reservations. The beauty with which the epoch-making events have unfolded makes me want to surrender to the HIGHER POWER unconditionally.

As I now prepare for the next crucial chapter of my life, I wish to take a moment to acknowledge the WONDER of it all.

Here's a song that says it all, Isn't It A Wonder by Boyzone.

It's the sign of the times, girl
Sad songs on the radio
It's the sign of the times, girl
As the leaves begin to go
But all these signs now,showing on my face
Proving me wrong, taking it's place
And I pray to God that there's more that we can do, yeah
and I pray to God that there's more that we can show, more that we can do, yeah
Isn't It a Wonder as a newborn baby cries
And isn't it a wonder with the sweetness in my eyes
and isn't it a wonder at the crossroads of my life
Isn't it a wonder?Isn't it a wonder, to me?
It's the way of the world when wrong takes hold of right
It's the way of the world in which we've all lost sight
But isn't this world too simple to be true?
Holding on to memories of you...
That I can see, a change in me
But I won't look back Cos that's behind me
And after all, strong words are spoken
My heart will never be, never be never be broken...


I bid adieu to my grandmother today and she cried for the first time ever. This made me realise that maybe things aren't going to be the same from now on and maybe she knows that too and hence her wishes were supplemented by subdued sobs.

My heart breaks as I'm forced to acknowledge the inevitable but don't they say that with FAITH, one can move mountains so what is physical distance between two living beings eh?
