Living in a life of faith, hope and joy, I believe in trust, truth and honesty. I am crazy at times, and sedate at others. Perhaps I dwell in this world of split personalities, where deception lies beyond every mask of love and loyalty. A deception so true, it has engulfed me in its soaring crests, and I fall flat in this valley of lies. Yet, I love this fall, as it gives me the power to rise again. Life is all about living, so let's live it in a way we want to live. Writing is a completely new experience for me...A world of freedom, of opportunities and chances...A world of joy and no regrets, of hope and ambition, nurtured in the thin veil of optimism and a warm compassion. Writing is my passion, and so is reading. And that explains why I am here. I aspire to share my world with you ... looking forward for your feedback.

There were hardly any tourists, lending the place its quiet and serene nature.

Sapna had started loving this place since she came here with her younger brother, Swapnil, a couple of days ago. The reason,
