Beyond the limit

 What is your limit ?   let's call this a mystery , a great mystery . What i have been doing for these last couple of years is repeating the same old story again and again with different photographs . Going deep in to it at the start and then ending it with some words of wisdom . First get emotional with my personal emotions then again  start writing it right here in this blog with   heartbroken words and bang you got another " Light up the darkness "or  " Faces of the unknown " .  Writing about emotions really helps me carry on , actually i find inspiration in my own stories most of the time . But what happens when all the emotions you had , all the love that you lost , all the damns that you gave away turns right back on you and says " Hi man , you know what i never cared about you . I was actually laughing at your words and your emotions "  Well what the hell should i do now ?  Get more emotional and keep  fighting a worth for nothing fight or start writing a book on a broken heart ? , Nah   

 The only thing i know is i can't start all over again .  You can never go back and change your past , oh wait you must be thinking that someone will invent a time machine for you right ? tell you what that thing is not coming . People come out from nowhere after learning rough lessons in life and starts  saying " hey i am a different person now " You know what buddy , you are the same old loser . If you gotta win the race in life , don't give a damn about the people who never gave a damn about you . We keep getting crazy about the mistakes we made  , we should be , i should be  , everyone should be but that wont change the outcome , you are still a loser , me too .  

The thing is you will always have to  be a loser to be a winner . Loss is a practical lesson and win is its result . If you don't learn your lessons , you can never be a winner . Never say i am over , because your limit is a mystery . I am done with my own emotions , its about time for me to go beyond the lines , go beyond the limits and take an awful amount of risks . Discovering myself has always been a big challenge for me , lets give it a try once again . I have to re-discover myself . I have to find the real me from somewhere .

 

Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.

Mary Kay Ash

Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.

Rabindranath Tagore

You can't put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get.

Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.

Gloria Steinem

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.

Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended.

The best is still a million miles away . Its the  conquest of life . The Limitless dreams and countless heartbreaking words is not the way to settle this . Its more about survival now . Its more about going beyond the limits now . Keep me in your prayers

The Crying Need Of The Planet .

Once upon a time , this world was filled with green trees , fresh water and people . There was a time when children used to play games in the green field . There was a time when the water was so pure we could see through it . There was a time when we had rivers full of fresh fishes and trees full of fresh fruits .

But today there are trees but that has no leaf  , there is water but  it is full of poison and there are people but they don't have any place to live . The water is so dark that you can hardly see your face in it . There are  rivers but it  has no water  . The fishes of the rivers are poisoned and the fruits of the trees are deadly . There is a dying planet in this universe and we are currently living in it . We must work together to revive this dying world and its nature because its the only place we have .

We can all talk but it is always  easier said than done . Don't wait for others to dig in .. If you can plant ten trees and tell ten people about the importance of planting trees . I think at least 5 of them will understand , as soon as they do that they will start planting trees and maybe 3 of them will tell 30 more people about it .  With the modern technologies we don't really need the analogue way of spreading a message but sometimes it works better than anything else . You don't have to be young or old , weak or strong , rich or poor to change the world . You can do anything you set your mind to . You can change the world , we can change the world

And maybe one day we will wake and see a playground full of green grass , a river full of clean water and a world full of joy  . Its all up to you and me now .

  

Sooner or later, we will have to recognise that the Earth has rights, too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans.

Evo Morales

Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value.

R. Buckminster Fuller

Our meaning is to make our little planet Earth a better place to live, to stop wars, disarm nuclear missiles, to stop diseases, AIDS, plague, cancer and to stop pollution.

Uri Geller

      

                                   We already have the statistics for the future: the growth percentages of                                   pollution, overpopulation, desertification. The future is already in place.

                    Gunter Grass

                                                                                                                            

  

                                                   

Approximately 80% of our air pollution stems from hydrocarbons released by vegetation, so let's not go overboard in setting and enforcing tough emission standards from man-made sources.

Ronald Reagan

“Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans.” 


― Jacques-Yves Cousteau

“Destruction is a man's will,Nevertheless Prevention is also a man's will,Its a man's choice to choose between Destruction and Prevention. :)” 

― Babu Rajan

   

        The health effects of air pollution imperil human lives. This fact is well-documented

 Eddie Bernice Johnson

Have we failed to slow global warming pollution in part because climate and environmental activists have been too polite and well behaved?

Jeff Goodell

Nature is a blessing from the Almighty . Our job is to protect it . Promise yourself that you will try your level best to keep the beautiful world alive , Don't fake that promise or you will give an unimaginable horror to the future generations .  

Happy world environment day .

Light up the darkness !

Our life is all about let downs and heart breaks . I can't count how many times i was let down or my heart was broken but i still wake up everyday with a dream to reach my destination which is hidden in a far away land . You can break my spirit but you can never stop me from dreaming . Sometimes you just gotta get away from the darken rooms or the darken cell and start living your dreams . Keep believing yourself and keep dreaming . The glory awaits ! 


So these photos are all about darkness and light . In other words its all about black and white .

Forget the past full of sorrow and dream about a better future

Chase your dreams . Its waiting for you right there in the light ! 

Time passes , things change everyday but our memories remain the same ! 

Sometimes a little light of hope can change everything . 

“When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.” 
― William Shakespeare 

Where there is hope , there is light ! 

May it be a light to you in dark places, when all other lights go out.” 
― J.R.R. Tolkien,

“There is a crack in everything.
That's how the light gets in.” 
― Leonard Cohen 

“There are darknesses in life and there are lights, and you are one of the lights, the light of all lights.” 
― Bram Stoker

“Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart.”

Light should come . Let it come if it does ! 

People are like stained - glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.Elisabeth Kubler-Ross 

I fade away 

So I put 'em in a verse today 

“We cast a shadow on something wherever we stand, and it is no good moving from place to place to save things; because the shadow always follows. Choose a place where you won't do harm - yes, choose a place where you won't do very much harm, and stand in it for all you are worth, facing the sunshine.” 
― E.M. Forster, A Room with a View 

“The continuous narrative of existence is a lie. There is no continuous narrative, there are lit-up moments, and the rest is dark.” 
― Jeanette Winterson

“Stories are light. Light is precious in a world so dark. Begin at the beginning. Tell Gregory a story. Make some light.” 
― Kate DiCamillo

Curious Child 

“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” 
― Plato

There are stories you can tell from a single look but there are stories that can't be described in words . A pain deep inside , the voice that always screams inside our head its called memories . Life is never easy . Sometimes we can let go of things very easily but sometimes we have to carry the pain throughout our life . We have to find the light ,  look at it and tell ourselves that it could have been worse .   You are living that means you will survive
