Nurture and Nourish

Nurture and Nourish

Buy a pot.
Fill it with soil.
Add a little manure.
Sprinkle in Love.

Sow the seeds.
Water daily.
Turn over the soil.
Shower it with Love.

Guard it from the harsh sun.
Save it from the pouring rain.
Warm it in the winters.
Cocoon it in your Love.

Put in sticks to support the seedlings.
Surround it with a fence.
Shoo away the predatory birds.
Lay down your life for it if need be.

Stay awake to keep it company.
Tear away the thorny weeds.
Let the drops of your blood nurture it.
Stand over it like a scarecrow to defend it.

Stand aside,
Watch the flowers bloom,
Stand aside,
Do not dictate what color they should be,
Just love what your seeds have become.

Stand vigilant,
Watch the fruits ripen,
Accept whatever shape they are,
Accept whatever size they are,
Just love what your seeds have given you.

Just Love.......... Unconditionally....

They are masters of their craft. Starting with the sneaky Rajkummar Rao, the sultry Huma Quereshi and the wily Radhika Apte, the ensemble includes the creepy Sukant Goel, the beleaguered Zayn Marie and many others. For me Sikandar Kher was a standout. A shoutout to his intensity and his baritone.  The dialogues are spot on and t...
