‘Life is like a road, with number of turns, ups and downs, marked with memories of individual each passed through it. Memories are like marks on the slab of coal-tar of emotions molten in the warmness of teenage and in the heat of passionate youth. Time with its passage lays a new slab on the memories.
Moments of joy and sorrow leave an impact on our life. While pleasantries carry a little significance the sufferings of unfulfilled ambitions or failures in objects inculcate the heart significantly, like marks of some open wounds however smaller they shrink in course of time, we seldom miss them from our memories.
Ambition is a dream with open eyes, to be on top of one’s career, coveting all the riches of the world including that of marrying the woman you like most lies beneath it. Sometimes it is so strong in the heart that it is visualised in night dreams too. And become colorful with each ahievement in life, where one with patience keep them colorful with in the limits of his capabilities and his ends, where as the impatient color them with malice. So I termed these visual dreams as ambitions and the nightdreams as fantasy.
‘Dreams, Desires, and Dismay is an attempt to give an expression to all such memories, ambitions and no doubt to my fantasy too, depicting my flight of imaginations, to which sky is the limit.
Since it is my own way of looking at the life and world around me, the reader may and may not agree with me.
