Sirens

Sirens.

Says the Wiki:

In Greek mythology, the Sirens (Greek singular: Σειρήν Seirēn; Greek plural: Σειρῆνες Seirēnes) were three dangerous bird-women, portrayed as seductresses, who lived on an island called Sirenum Scopuli. In some later, rationalized traditions the literal geography of the "flowery" island of Anthemoessa, or Anthemusa,is fixed: sometimes on Cape Pelorum and at others in the Sirenusian islands near Paestum or in Capreae. All locations were surrounded by cliffs and rocks. Sailors who sailed near were compelled by the Sirens' enchanting music and voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast.

In short they seduce and spell disaster,in every language! And evil is always attractive..no matter however much you want to deny it!

But, I beg to differ that these can only be women. Men are better,if not equal siren-y in nature...!And I would even take it further by saying..that all of us have a siren inside us. At different times in our lives we become characters that are sirens..actively,unconsciously,aspirationally or accidentally. And the more obvious..sexually!

The mistake all of us end up making is that we dont let a siren be. He or she should let be. The beauty in his or her being is that they should remain unattainable..and thus remain sirens. Once they have been 'tamed' thats the end of their expertise! The more you let them linger..the more you are achieveing success,isnt it?

Sirens are not conquests. Let them be in their spaces..and allow them to bring out the best in you!

Sit back, relax..and enjoy!

I had a feeling today which was new to me.
I looked at a photograph of a baby boy..and felt..this could have been my baby..if things were to turn out they way it hasn't now.
And I did not feel remorse..just looked again and again at the picture,trying to find if the baby has any of my features! Yes,you read that right!Don't ask me why. But of course, needless to say..I ended up finding way too many resemblances the baby had with the dad..and really nothing with his mom!And then..(I really dont know why) I kept searching for my nose,my lips..or even the shape of my face in the child.
This JUST requires a slap on my forehead..!
Did that.I am smiling a lot now :)
