I've always been intrigued by Red Velvet Cakes.
Intrigued.
Amazed.
Attracted.
This is bliss.
This is home.
This is what being amazed feels like.
I was thinking today that I've always been more in love with the idea of being in love, than with being in love.
The lyrics to 'Fidelity' come to mind when I think of the idea of love.
Is love = laying in a park and watching the sky? Carving your initials onto tree barks?
Is it falling asleep dreaming and hoping that your dream will come true?
I've done all that. And I don't know if it captures the whole idea of it.
Is it about sharing your stories, your fears, your regrets, your fantasies?
I've done that too. This comes a little closer to it.
Its a strange world, where give and take is the norm.
How many laws apply?
Is having no rules - the only rule?
I'm asking questions - questions that have no answers.
And that scares me a little.
Maybe its a feeling, best left undefined.
Its about savouring the moments you have and making a few more :)

" I never loved nobody fully
Always one foot on the groundAnd by protecting my heart trulyI got lost in the soundsI hear in my mindAll these voicesI hear in my mind all these wordsI hear in my mind all this musicAnd it breaks my heartAnd it breaks my heartAnd it breaks my heartIt breaks my heart "

I'm Gonna Shine & Multiply.
Why stop?
To stop to rest - is something I understand. Even follow.
But to stop in absolute? Nope. Not for me.
Just like the Earth tends to change - slowly and surely - I change too. In fact, what I am today is nothing but a sum of changes.
To stay in motion is important to stay afloat. That's like a basic law. The moment you stop kicking, you sink.
I sometimes feel like 21 is the prime of my life that came too soon. Have I peaked? I mean, am I at the summit? And all that remains is the fall? I don't know.
I'm not even a quarter over with my life. Yet, it feels like most of it is already over.
I'm not depressed. I'm just quite confused. I'm burning. Slowly and steadily. And all that'll remain will be ashes, that I can expect to be gone in the blink of an eye!
But in the end, I'm sure it'll all make perfect sense.
I don't know why, but I'm sure of this fact.

It was a lazy day/night again and all I could think of, was chocolate. About how lush and beautiful it is. How it makes me think of dew and gardens and lilies and madness!
Well, just thinking isn't enough right! A piece of chocolate just doesn't cut it sometimes and a moist & spongey cake is all you need to be happy!
Enter - Cake in a Mug!
I know that you're probably thinking that all I'm doing nowadays is baking. Well, its kinda true!
/:)
But as long as you're happy, just do what you want to do. Nobody should ever be able to dent your happiness!
Tada!
Its the simplest recipe ever!
There are few songs in this world that can reduce me to a slowly beating lump of melancholia.
This is one of them.
Who needs shelter - Jason Mraz
I first heard this song in a movie. Remember Chasing Liberty? That Mandy Moore chick flick? I was so young back then! And its been maybe 10 years since that time. I will never forget the words or the music to this....
Ever.
..that I used to call my own.
It was called B -16.
It had all the things I loved.
It was home.
It was me.
But its gone now.
I knew that 3 years were all I had with it.
And I did make them count.
But can you ever get enough of a good thing?
I don't think so.
I left a mark there on the furniture.
It said - Aradhna was here.
The bed, that I've crashed onto.
Studied, eaten, jumped like mad & also cried into.
The bed, that I've crashed onto.
Studied, eaten, jumped like mad & also cried into.
The mirror beside my bed. So many times have I looked into it. Wondered. Wondered.
I still do wonder.
I sometimes wonder. Could I die, hugging that piece of earth? Happy?
And I think, I could.
:)
