The First Flight!!!!

The hardest part of writing a blog is to write the first few lines. I have been thinking of updating my blog for the last few days but to no avail. In this modern day of computers I would have made an equivalent of a score of papers or rather notepads which have found their way into the recycle bin. And finally truth dawned upon me that writing a blog is like talking to yourself and here I am. And for all those who have taken the pain to visit my blog let me introduce myself. Yo Soy Kartheek, soy de la India. For beginners I am presently working half way around the world in Monterrey,Mexico and find it that all the English that I have learnt is of little use here. So here started my journey to learn Spanish which I am getting to know is a little hard.

Well this post was just to say Hi and also to believe I can write. I intend to incorporate the various funny things that happen to me around here and believe me I always seem to be at the centre of it. But before I finish a little puzzle for all. I have been asked by many people around here if i knew this thing. They call it the "tamal". It took me a while to figure out what it meant and it meant something very Indian. See ya soon. Adios!!

THE PHEONIX

“The thought of a new life
renders in me a warmth
unknown to mankind.
But the fear of the past,
Not letting go prods my heart.

The innermost desires fight
With the deepest fears
And alas! What comes out ,
In the end is fear.

A fear of being all alone
Without the loved ones.
A fear of not achieving
But the saying goes
‘Life moves on come what may’

I try to bring out the innermost desires
Let go of the deepest fears
And wait for the sun to rise,
A new dawn signifying
A new page in my life.

As a phoenix I’ll rise
Turning to ashes every fear,
Every hurdle that tries to stop me.

I wait for a new dawn……”
