A
friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,
Or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.
A friend is like an owl,
both beautiful and wise.
Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.
A friend is like a heart that goes
strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world
if we didn”t have a friend.

Meethi uljhan. . .
Yeh kaisi meethi uljhan hai ?
Dhoop tumhari yaad dilaati,
Chhanw tumhari hi baaten hai.n,
Aankhe ek jhalak ko pyaasi,
Bhule nahi.n bhula paate hai.n,
Itnaa kyon mohit yeh mann hai !
Tumse milane ko aatur kyon,
Mera rom rom rahataa hai,
Pyaar sahi hai , paap nahin hai,
Kyon mera antar kahataa hai,
Zidd hai ya diwanaapan hai !!
Mitti ki saundhi khushaboo si,
Ya puja ki jhanjhar jaisi,
Rimjhim rimjhim barakhaa ho,
Tum bahati nadiya ke sur si,
Tum main meraa brundawan hai !!!

The first step is in her kind eyes,
That shows she is very wise.
Second step is in her red lips,
That match her finger tips.
Third step is in her voice,
A voice that would make the heavens rejoice.
Forth step is in her ears,
I could nibble on them for years.
Fifth step is her nose,
It is as pretty as a rose.
Sixth step is in her beautiful long hair,
That matches anything she wears.
Seventh step is to her heart,
So that we may never part.
Heaven is when I found You!

A soft heart
Is not easily chipped or cracked
Pressure on a soft heart
Leaves an imprint…
An indelible mark that lasts forever.
A hard heart
Is cold to the touch
It cracks and breaks
There is no imprint
There are only broken pieces.
Lord, thank you
For a soft heart
Thank you for the pain
of the imprint
he left on my heart.
Thank you that this heart
Will learn to love again.

How To Write Excellent Blog Content - What We Wish We Knew
This post is part of the 'What we wish I knew when I first started Blogging' Series. Below I'll share readers comments on the topic of Writing Good Blog Content as well as some of my own thoughts.
One of the most key aspects of any successful blog is the ability to create content that keeps drawing people back to your blog. I've written so many posts on this topic and know that 'excellent blog content' means something different on every blog - as a result I won't pretend that what I write in this post will be a definitive guide to writing great blog content.
However I can tell you five things that I wish I knew in my early days of blogging about writing content (with a few links for further reading).
5 Things I Wish I'd Known Earlier about Writing Content for a Blog
- The Power of Titles - the title has the ability make or break a blog post. It impacts how (and if) it's found in search engines and social bookmarking sites, it influences whether people visit your blog in News Readers, it affects whether people leave a comment and is vital in whether people actually read what you have to say. Read more about using Titles Effectively on Blogs.
- The Viral Nature of Lists - a single well written list post can launch a blog to great heights in the blogosphere. While the prolific nature of lists in the blogosphere can also mean your lists get ignored, I find that when writing the same content as a list that you write as an essay like article the list will almost always get more attention. Read more about why lists are great for getting traffic to your blog.
- The Importance of Being Original - perhaps the best lesson that I ever learned as a bloggers was that people are drawn to others who speak their mind, who have something unique to say and who say it in a creative and fresh way. Say what everyone else is saying in the same way that everyone else is saying it and you're almost guaranteed of being largely ignored. Read more about how to avoid joining the echo chamber and saying something original.
- The Value of Well Formated Content - people don't read content on line in the same way that they read content in other mediums. Online readers tend to scan content. As a result if you place visual cues in your posts that draw the eye to important points you'll find people stick with you longer into your posts. Read more on How to make your content Scannable
- The Impact of a Good Image - another simple technique for providing an additional point of interest in your posts
is to provide something visual. I don't use images in every post on this blog but find that when I do that those clicking through on the post in my feed reader increases. Images have the power to communicate in ways that words cannot - use them. Read more on Using images to make your posts POP in RSS feeds.

“The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnamable is the eternally real,” . So, if you focus on the name, then you are likely to lose the actual substance and essence of it.
