DEAD POET'S SOCIETY

Reaching for a love that seems so far in life  , I experienced it in this adorable piece of art   : this movie . My heart sank in every bit of the movie . Mr. Keating , a teacher who inspires those young lads !  My affinity towards the movie includes  many such things such as : THE LINES BY JOHN KEATS NARRATED DURING THE CLASS BY MR. KEATING 

The beauty of Anderson's creativity  in his poem , the flight of birds shown in a section of the movie and the background score simultaneously , the undaunted proposal of  Knox to Chris, the walk through the woods and the way they screamed their lungs out with songs ! The way Neil gave his friend Anderson  , assurance   by letting him throw away the desk gift.

And this next paragraph I dedicate to the most promising, adorable , invigorating, inspiring , dearest character of the movie : MR. JOHN KEATING .  OH CAPTAIN !  The  very name which includes John Keats in it , soaked in the very essence of Keats . At the lectures when he tells them to rip off  the pages , when he explains them CARPE DIEM , when he gets the poet out of Anderson in front of the whole class , when he says swim against the stream and when he asked them to stand upon the desks:  my heart repeatedly  experienced some of the most nicest , purest , honest, and endearing words . YAWP ! YOU MADE MY VOICES DEEP INSIDE MY HEART YAWP MR . KEATING . WHEN HE TOLD THEM THAT LANGUAGE WAS A MEDIUM  TO WOO WOMEN , WHEN HE TOLD THEM HOW POETRY CAME OUT FROM THEIR MOUTHS LIKE HONEY AT  DEAD POETS SOCIETY  MEETINGS , I found myself somewhere in the movie ,as if  I  belong to the movie ! 

A poignant story  epitomizing the beauty of the art of poetry . Also with  amazing music in some parts of the   movie kept me riveted throughout the movie .
Although I could never imagine that one of the most loveliest and brightest student Neil could end up his life .
But that was the bitter truth .

This movie is undoubtedly ONE of those which is added to my   evergreen movie list .Worth watching , an inspiring , fun- loving, a story which teaches as it delights. A beautiful one !

THIS IS NOT A BLOG BUT A TRIBUTE TO THE BEAUTIFUL SOUL MR. ROBIN WILLIAMS WHO MADE THE MOVIE SO WARM AND FRESH !  AND TO ALL OTHERS :  TODD ANDERSON , NEIL PERRY , KNOX OVERSTREET , CHARLIE DALTON ,RICHARD CAMERON , STEVEN MEEKS , GERARD PITTS ,CHRIS NOEL .YOU WILL BE REMEMBERED . 


AND LOTS OF LOVE TO THE DIRECTOR :PETER WIER AND WRITER TOM SCHULMAN .

THE STAGE

"Forget your dissatisfied soul , when you cease play acting the world will start being your audience "

- Jo Parfitt.

Standing on my own . oh yes , each one of us has a story to share , a legend to create , a purpose for which we are born.Making mistakes and picturing the stupidity we messed up life with we find out our STAGE . The moment we know we are here in this life for a purpose and the moment we know what exactly it should be . When Thomas Edison exhausted all possibilities and found he hasn't , he discovered the bulb , when Bill Gates dropped out and discovered his calling in a "change" , an innovation he brought forth  Microsoft ,   the day a newspaper boy , took hold of his passion , his first and last love : science , INDIA received  Missile man ,none other than Sir Abdul Kalam , AND The day a family knit woman stepped out of her house in search of her boxing dreams  the world met Mary Kom  . 

Big dreams don't just happen . You need to perform .You need to show  all of your exuding  courage to excel your stage performance .Each one of us  has a stage called life.We are the performers .And the  people around us  are our  audience . And yes , people aren't always backing you , so be ready to see people laughing at you, mocking at you . Grow through these hard days with courage !

The day you stop acting , the more real you grow and will be known for who you are . And  right there applauds the crowd in unison , what a performance !

Always ,

Towards life beyond expectations .

As I walked down  the stairs  , as I entered my first lecture of graduation , as I saw my friend grow older with me, as I saw a heated argument among my neighbors, as I saw the baby crawl towards me in the hallway , as I looked towards the stranger  whom I saw daily in the tube. They are all a reflection of expectations .

Undoubtedly we all are surrounded by silences we  think to break and further  commit towards a communication .The instances I have mentioned in the earlier paragraph , are always a part of the human race .

The look of disgrace , the look of Amazement , the look of intrigue  ,the look of those unanswered questions . People have lifted their own presumptions in their minds .Their minds are getting clogged by narrow thoughts and thus expectations . 

What merely one could do is break the silence and speak .Put out all of one's emotions and thoughts , so that it becomes easy to reason and clear away the hardships of this disturbing LOOK . And let's hope it turns out to be  pleased by a complete smile .  Look beyond your questions and talk.Sometimes its not how you think ! Join the broken pieces of  your unexpressed expressions and make the portrait full by just speaking it out.

Expectations is nothing but a gap between the said and unsaid .

Live the life of expressions and not expectations .

Always ,

AGNES .

WHERE IS MY FAIRY ?

I always loved to read fairy tales during my childhood and some how, never got rid of that habit .

While my friends had emptied their innocent souls and taken up the stairs of REALISTIC GOALS  with the passage of time , I stood there itself along-with my  Elated feelings of fairytale. I shouldn't have had an obsession for so long I wonder now. But even though I ponder like that now   , I still belong somewhere there . Maybe my mother is at fault who got me those story books , who got messages of lives of goodness, peace, LIVES happily ever after AND  A WORLD OF FOREVER ! 

Life isn't a fairytale as we so often hear it . Life is unfair for many and filled with shocks and terrors ! The news hour and newspapers keep flashing this in their headlines with some news or the other . While this part of life which is destined for some isn't in our hands , let us put up  GOOD WITH THE PRESENT AND ALL AROUND .

While many days we go about bragging and self indulging ourselves in negative thoughts , lets bring out a smile  to someone today . One at a time , and like candles on your birthday cake , for a single wish of yours you will be filled with joy everlasting  in return ! Bring out goodness everyday . It's not difficult its reciprocal .

"Give the best to the world and the best will come back to you."

Well I am not very sure if you  could agree with the above . As experiences vary for some .But I SAY BELIEVE .

 LIKE THE DEW FALLS FROM HEAVEN ARE UNNOTICED AND CERTAIN . IT WILL HAPPEN .

Give out the goodness within you . Humanity calls for it !

Always ,

AGNES .

PATIENCE AND HEALING :TWO TESTS OF TIME !

The sharpness of our lives begins with us . We are all directed to our ambitions our goals and dreams in our own ways. We deal with our interests , liking , spend hours on our passion and then finally one day we state our needs our goals to everyone . What we forget is the  universality of this issue . Is it universally applicable and possible that everyone receives that dream that passion that reason to excel in his or her own journey at the very same time . My answer to this question is NO . 

If u are a slow walker walk with small steps , don't show haste , don't be turbulent by the world and be perturbed by the fear of time . It's all a big lie. To keep you  guarded you are gifted by a conscience . Keep hold of this friend of yours. Spend hours I would say instead of ten minutes with your mind and know THYSELF. Spending your life by looking at people and their journey does help in some ways to guide you with signs and decisions at times . But don't be perplexed . You are equally gifted by your creator . TIME is not a matter to limit your goals. You will reach sharp ends when people will laugh at you , curse you , admonish you , know this is not of your interest .

They are yet another strata of people who aren't contented with their own lives . Be your own . Be trustworthy to your life. Give your wait a chance . You will seek and know it very soon . Keep believing and hoping .

Stay assured .

Always

CITYLIGHTS

Highlighters on the road , torch, candle, and CITYLIGHTS for a traveller . We are surrounded by lights all around in our life amidst these concrete buildings and shrewd hearts , when we are rejected and isolated we all seek a light to set us fire . Set fire of hope to our downcast souls . So thats a sharp truth to bear . 


To keep the lamp within us burning we need that spark alive in us all our lives . Good it is to feed your body with motivation and determination but even greater is the touch of citylights . YOU WILL KNOW NOW HOW ..... 


When I travel back home , and glance at these city lights its all I need during my night ride . Thats a necessity I need all my ride during the night . Such is our situation when we are burdened with darkness of our hearts we need people around to lit that fire in us when we loose our lights & our hopes . 


People who like the city lights bring back the effect of  the dawn and guide us till the sun rises again ! Great is the   contribution of such people to your aspirations . Never forget them. When you least expect things to turn good these people come with all the hope, ever fulfilling and inundating . Have faith , in them and love them. Citylights are important . You may thank them through a genuine smile , an honest prayer , or a THANKYOU. feel it and love them all your life .

Blessing of Enthusiasm

The tempestuous  sail of life is to be set forth with ease . Ease begins at peace . Ease begins at healing , ease begins during a peaceful sleep , ease begins at the contentment of heart , ease begins with fulfilled enthusiasm . 

When we step out with faith for a journey we need to accomplish, it takes a blessing of enthusiasm to ENDURE . The skies may go rough and winds may turn harsh flowing against our hope , our wagons , our ships , our vehicles our supports will stop responding at the very time of needs . Such is the fright and fear of enduring a journey . Only a blessing of enthusiasm is the cure . It takes million shouts within your mind to discipline your journey with the struggle.When we cannot feel the care and support we are in need of , we face this reality of LIFE: its a blessing of enthusiasm needed indeed.  We need to brush off the scars , the tears , and failures through a step a single step with enthusiasm again and again until we reach our destinations . 



Coaching our beliefs is sometimes only in our hands . How energetically are we ready to accept changes , how brave are we to accept the mocking and struggle ? Through a blessing of enthusiasm we culminate the ease of our journey . 

Talk to you mind , talk to your tears and sleepless nights with a ray of energy . Speak and work through an undying enthusiasm , you will start your journey once again with the bliss of beginning like earlier days . 

And you will be back into your goals , with a purpose , with a belief. With a victory you have been waiting for . That's how you ENDURE .
