Happy, because I feel it

I cried at the mountain peak
I smiled at the ocean bottom
I wept on the horizons
I laughed in the storms
For happiness was where I felt it
And I was sad where I was sad

Achieving what I desired
Didn't make me happy
For when I got what I wanted
I wanted something else
Something more, something different
I cried for it
I craved for it
But often I laughed
At some small little achievements
I danced, I shouted
Feeling a fulfillment at heart
For something I didn't even dream
But got that by a chance
Didn't even plan to celebrate
But celebrated with happiness
For I was happy, because I felt it
And I had cried because I had cried

Who knows where the life will take to
What the destiny is
But I imagine, I plan, I work
I fail, I succeed
I smile, I laugh
A small little smile
For the failures
A big laugh
For the gains
Sometimes I cry laughing
Sometimes I laugh crying
And the journey goes on
With some tears
With some smiles

Know Me: Vikash Kumar

"Everything I know, I know because of love" That's Charles Dickens in War and Peace. I know things because of my experiences and imaginations. Life is a journey, from one point to another, from one corner to another, and meanwhile showing us the enigma and the beauty of various life forms, of forms without life and of abstract sensations. We get experience in this journey. And having got the power of words, we sync them in the rhythm of the events of our lives, and we create poems, poems which reflect what we have gone through what we feel and what we have become. Often these very poems also reflect what we want to achieve and what we ought to become. Plus our imaginative tendencies. Believe me readers, all of us have this poet hidden in us. I, Vikash Kumar, am just one among you. Giving conveyable words to my poems. Born and brought up in a small village in East Champaran district of Bihar, having done engineering from one of very pr...

Day 58: 15.05.2023: Drifting away?

12 days, 4 cities, 2 marriages, multiple relative’s places, lots of travel, and so on. All these of course had a toll. However, I had imagined worse. When I returned to Delhi on 10th May, I weighed 83.95 against 84.70 on 25th April. Happy because despite everything (and similar weighing – after 3 glasses of water in the morning) I weighed lesser than before. Today, I weighed 83.30 which is exactly 2.0 Kg away from the target case line. So the journey so far got a drifted curve than projected. Is it possible to catch up? Whatever the answer is, I won’t recommend it to myself. One because I’m very much aware that the existing diet itself isn’t on the healthy side. Two, I’m also aware that having already shedded 7kgs the shedding is going to be naturally slower going forward. My Excel table currently ends on the 120th day, thus the projection in the Target-72 case ends at 74. There is a probability that I’ll stay on the 10% cheats line which ends at 72.76. And I’m fine with it. Hey, by th...
