Too Late to Apologize


When I was small,
And prone to doing wrong,
My Mom would blackmail me.
Unless I put things right,
I'd have to bear the plight,
She wouldn't talk to me.
I would try my best
To pass the test
In fear of losing her,
What bothered me
Was her deficiency
And not her anger.

Now when I see him holding my position
And my mom's I bear,
I see him turning his back on me,
And I realize he doesn't care.

I realize my worth...
I lose my mirth...
We live but friendship dies.
The milestone's crossed...
The relation's lost...
Its too late to apologize.

Weight Loss


Undoubtedly, the most popular program undertaken by the young and middle-aged section of the population is Weight Loss. Some try to starve themselves, some try to exercise beyond their capacity, some take pills and the more desperate ones go for surgeries. I say chuck it! What's wrong in staying fat? You think you will look ugly? Think again. Not all slim people in the world are beautiful and apple of everyone's eyes. There are many who have 24 inch waists and are yet ignored. In fact, fat people are so cute. So the first thing that you should do is delete the direct linear equation of slim equals to attention and affection from your mind. If you want to look good, polish your personality. Fat or not fat, hardly matters. Don't run after something that doesn't promise you what you are targeting?

Think of famous personalities like actress, singer and author- Rosie O' Donnell, American idol- Jennifer Hudson, actress- Queen Latifah, actor John Goodman and of course, everyone's favourite, the most adorable SANTA CLAUS!!! How can you ever call them "not beautiful"?! Besides being brilliant at their respective fields, personifying glamour,charisma, charm and grandeur is their natural disposition. So instead of tormenting yourself over Weight Loss,try to work on some quality gain that would help you shape your individuality and give you enough confidence to flaunt yourself before the population,including the slim ones.

Besides being temporary, the results from various Weight Loss methods are often accompanied with many side-effects. A diet can render you vulnerable to malnutrition and anemia. It also reduces body immunity. Exercises make you hungrier thus contradicting your diet controls. Surgeries and pills are always dangerous for health. So we see, it's a dicey deal.

Now you may say that extra fat invites diseases. And I will say you are right. My point is not to encourage unhealthy corpulence, but to monish the myth that "being fat is something abnormal." Besides, who said in order to be fit you have to be lean? You can always be fat AND fit. A person with more flesh has greater immunity than one with less. If you can just shift your concentration from forcing Weight Loss on yourself to increasing your fitness, you will gain more stability in health than someone who is slim. So remember, if you are fit, you are fine. Stop grumbling over your fats and learn to love yourself the way you are.
