Awkward situations

Most of us find many situations awkward whether it is falling down in public or missing a train after you have just reached the platform. Awkward situations may differ from people to people but most will agree that they find the following ones as awkward.

• When a young man is asked by a young woman to stand up in a bus because he’s sitting on a ladies seat.
• When you stammer while addressing a group of people.
• When you are in a party and you don’t know anyone other than the host.
• When you are confident and pretentious about winning but you end up on the loosing side.
• When you plan a surprise for “someone” and the “someone” already knows the plan.
• When you plan to eat in a public place like a train or bus and all eyes are fixed on you.
• When you are eating pani puri on the road and a beggar ask for one.
• When people ask you when are you getting married, when they very well know you have been single for long and are not seeing anyone.
• When you are alone with the guest at your home and you want to visit he washroom badly.
• When you fall from a broken chair.
• When everyone knows you are giving an exam and you end up not clearing it.
• When you go for a party and your beautician overdoes your makeup.
• When you are attending a funeral and don’t know what to say.
• When you realize others are staring at you because you are wearing different pair of hearings or shoes.
• When you have worn your clothes Backside up.
• When you are in a meeting and you fart.
• When you have just been married for a month and your relatives keep asking you if you expecting.
• When you make a hefty bill in a hotel without realizing you have forgotten your wallet.
• When because of your compulsive nature touch a showpiece in a showroom and break it without considering the notice “Please do not touch”.
• When you are eating in a 5 star joint struggling to eat a tandoori leg with a knife and fork.
• When some ask to take care of their things and you end up loosing it.

These are just few. I am sure there are many more.

IPL Dhamal

The Indian premiere league has created much of its waves in South Africa. When I first heard that it would be held in SA I was happy by the fact that I would get a chance to watch it but at the same time I had a thought running that it would not work here .But to my surprise it’s a big hit. The stadiums are packed by South Africans and it’s difficult to get the tickets. The first day tickets were sold in just 1 and half hour. Yesterday we some how managed to get the ticket for the t2o match between Rajasthan royals vs. Delhi dare devils at Centurion in Pretoria. The stadium was 75 % packed [considering the fact that it was a working day] with everybody in colors of red and blue supporting the 2 teams. The stadium full of Indian and English music and lightning and cracker all the way. What surprised me was how well South Africans had willing accepted the Indian première league and were taking active participation. South Africans love their sports.
Even though the score set up by Shewags team was quite ordinary 143, Rajasthan royals was struggling all the way until our heroic Yusuf Pathan stepped in and turned the whole match around. His impressive 6 sixes with breath taking. It led Rajasthan Royals to victory.
Thanks to lalit modi for giving all of us a big cricketing event like IPL.

SHAME- INDIA TV

In one of the worst form of cheap sensational journalism India TV published misleading forged photograph of our syedna Dr Mohammed Burhannuddin [TUS] performing the nikah of the world most wanted man Baitullah Messud on 6th April 2oo9. What does a leader of peace and harmony have to do with a bloody terrorist? It’s sad that media channels in order to increase their TRPs publish false news without verifying them. India TV which is famous for it cheap sensational journalism realizing their mistake published a 7 minute apology on 7th April 2oo9. But how can a 7 minute apology undo the harm that has already been done. My blood boils to see how these TV channels manipulate information and present it to naïve public. Where is the responsibility of the press? These fake new have not only harmed the reputation of the messiah of peace but have also hurt the sentiments of one of the most peaceful community in the world the Dawoodi Bohra. India TV should be ashamed of their despicable journalism.
SHAME INDIA TV SHAME

Democracy is all about Tolerance and Acceptance.

Democracy is all about integration and unity among people. Tolerance has played an important role in sustaining Indian Democracy. There is no room for hatred in our country. We have more pressing issues to deal with than dividing our country on communal lines. We need leaders who can spread peace and unite our country rather than spread communal hatred. When people don’t get valid issues to fight elections they play the card of communal hatred. We cannot see more violence than what we have already witnessed. There is a need for drastic change. Change in the minds of people. Change among our leaders. Change in the way we all perceive each other. We need to create love and acceptance for each other in order to survive happily. We need to shed our prejudices for our country to progress and more over we all need to take part in the democratic process.i.e we need to cast our vote

Happy Valentine Day

Dear Ladoo,

You are my knight in shinning armour,
You are the sweet fragrance of a beautiful flower,
You are the white rays from the moon light,
As you bring more meaning to my life

I adore your charming patience,
Your electrifying smile and your caring attention.
You attract me with your obliging humbleness and modest nature
Making me mesmerized with your enduring stature.

You bring joy and glory to my existence,
You are my cupid of happiness and love.
You make my every moment special and dear.
I want nothing but my love you to be near.

You make me laugh when my eyes want to cry,
You make my heart beat skip with every touch,
Your warm kiss flows all my sorrow,
And makes me look at our bright future tomorrow.

Thank you for loving me so much.

Happy Valentine’s Day

A last letter from a friend

This letter was from a special friend who is lost since past one and a half year. She gave this before she was returning to her home town Kerela after finishing our Master’s.



Dear Umme,
Nobody promised that life’s going to be a bed of roses….It goes beyond petty differences, small conflicts, big fights and bigger fights………………..
The challenge is to rise above them, deal with them and put them behind you.
TRUST ME when I say U R special the strength is within you….you only have to search for it and your friends are always with you, you only have to realize it.
Most importantly BELIEVE IN YOURSELF….because only if U do…will the world follow.

With lotsa love

ME


I hope to ear from you soon and THANK YOU for these beautiful words

Silent Apathetic World

I am shocked with the world's silence regarding Israel-Palestine conflict. Where is the United Nations.Why is there no intervention by other countries. Sometimes I feel we are not concern. Why are we silient when innocent civilians suffer and die. Where is the Peace talk? and Where are the so called world leaders ?

Apathetic World

You can bomb another state,
You can kill the human race,
You can trivialize terror events,
You can mock at others tribulations,
But we are not concern….

You cannot feel the human pain,
You cannot ear people’s howling,
You cannot see the blood flowing,
You cannot smell the poisonous gases,
But we are not concern…

You call yourself a world leader,
Showing no concern for the others.
But it’s the others, who are going to die,
When you cut your triumph cake
And say good bye

The OBAMA EFFECT

Its OBAMA, OBAMA, OBAMA everywhere. The first African American president of United States of America. The 44th president of United States is not just a good orator but also an inspiring leader. He is an icon for the youth of the world. A powerful figure displaying honesty, humbleness, love and hard work. I am impressed by his faith and belief in himself. His determination to serve America and stick to its ideals. His inclusive policy and motto of “YES WE CAN” is all powerful in itself. In his inauguration speech he confidently says “let us pick ourselves and dust ourselves and remake America. These words reflect a new beginning. A start that will change the face of world politics. His commitment to leave Iraq to its people and restore peace in Afghanistan with improve the tainted American image. Another of his impressive statement was his message to the leaders who think they are being destroyed by the west “people will judge you on what you built and not on what you destroy”. How true are these words. These are the words of a rational leader. The voice of the youth, development, prosperity, unbiased attitude and love. Who can be more inspiring than him? I hope he meets all the expectations.Truely a WORLD LEADER.

Solitude

oh solitude! how much i loathe you.
The empty space with no sound of human race.
The crawling time with no party to rhyme.
I wish i could leave you oh solitude.

You leave a turmoiled mind.
With a destroyed concept.
No peace. No calm.
Leaving the agitated self to harm.

Your greatness I can not see,
since I am searching for a reason to flee.
But i know its only for sometime,
Soon our friendship has to die.

Perplexed

I dont know what makes me cry.
I dont know why my emotions run high.
I may seem to be an impulsive stunner,
but i am nothing just a confused dummer.

I know you are frustrated with my delicate extravagance,
My unreasoned weeping and my infringed seeping.

I wish i could explain you my baffled thoughts,
I dont want to posses you, just want to share your prized time.
A few cherished moments that I want to share,
Giving my unconditional presence because I care.

You want to share my prize with your companions,'
When I linger for you the whole day.
What about my toiled crusines and agravated wounds?
Who will heal them if not you.

Please dont misunderstand me --II

I am not a manipulator,
I have never manipulated
Its just my inner expressions
and my raw inexperience.

I am not polished,
I am not full of reverence,
I dont enjoy pretending,
I am just on a dead end:(

My frustation rises,
Helplessness prevails,
The thought of your thought process,
makes me feel sad:(

Happy Birthday :)

On your birthday I wish you love, luck, happiness and joy
I hope all your wishes come true,
And all you have is a beautiful life.

Once a year I get a chance to wish you happy birthday,
I am glad to tell you I think of you each day.
I hope you understand as another birthday goes,
How much you mean to me,
More than you can know.

This ones for my Maam. May you always have a beautiful, satisfied and happy life.

Beautiful...

हमसफ़र

कितना प्यारा है यह मेरा हमसफ़र
ज़िन्दगी का सफर सुहाना बना गया
रास्तों के कांटे फूलों से सजा कर
चलने का राह हसीन बना गया

दूर हो कर भी है वोह कितना पास
आंखें की निंदिया चूरा गया
रंगीले सपने दिखा कर
जीवन का मोह दिला गया

कितना करू में और इंतजार
टिक टिक चाले धीरज से यह वक़्त
दिल को और में कितना सहलू
लगे सालो का यह मिलाप

To my Love…..

Your love makes me smile,
Your love makes me sing,
Your love makes be dance,
Your love takes my mind in a beautiful trance.

Your love is a blessing,
Your love is my medicine,
Your love makes my desires pile,
Your love makes my journey of life worth while.

Your love gives me wings to fly my flight high,
Your love gives me hope that makes me rise,
Your love gives me courage to conquer my fears,
Your love gives me support to wash out my tears.

Your kind warmth embraces my soul,
Your gentle speech sings in my ears,
Your sparkling eyes make my day bright,
Your tender kiss makes my spirit rise.

Our love is a sacred flame that will burn forever
It is the rain that will always pour,
It is the wind with a passionate blow,
It is the heart whose beat roar.

Together we will always stay,
Forever, forever, forever……

This ones from my love....
Before I sleep I think of you
When I wake I think of you
All I can think about is how much
I truely do love you

Each & every dayI only think of you
At night when I prayI pray just for you
And I will always love you no matter what they say
Remember I am here for you each & every day

And if Tomorrow Never Comes
I Know That You Are Mine
Our Love Is Eternal
And ever through all time .. =)

Please don't misunderstand me......- I

I don’t know what makes u angry,
I don’t know what makes u feel bad,
The only thing I know is true,
I just want to see u glad.

I never wanted to disturb u,
I never thought of interference,
It just your apathy,
You kill me with your indifference.

I may not be the best daughter,
I may not be the best student or wife,
I hope u understand my plight,
I want nothing but your knowledgeable light.

I know you are always busy,
I know your time is very precious,
But a few words with some one who cares,
Will not make your life scarce.

It hurts when u ignore,
Its hurts when u overlook,
Don’t slay me with your silence,
The wounds are irreparable.

Please don’t misunderstand my words,
Please don’t make me feel at fault,
My heart can not take the guilt,
It brings my world to halt.

I want to see your real self,
I want to feel your warmth,
Please don’t disturb me with your silence,
It breaks my ever growing resilience.

Just another BLAST

Some times i feel are we just getting used to bomb blasts, vandalism, riots and natural disasters. Is this something new for us? "Nothing affect us " is our mantra. Are we really brave or are we rationalizing our conditions to cope with our helplessness?

So now it Jaipur on the target. The royal pink city, which has captured the new channels, after death shadowed it.In the past three years, this is the 21st terror attack outside Jammu & Kashmir. This time cycles were used as weapons. Similar cycle blasts on September 8, 2006, in Malegaon, Maharashtra, had killed 38 people during a Muslim festival day. Bombs on cycles were also used for the attack on the Faizabad court. The Malegaon attacks were blamed on LeT and the banned Students' Islamic Movement of India. This time the blasts are being linked to Harkat ul-Jihad Islami(HuJI) which is a bangladeshi based terror outfit.

Who are these terrorist?I am sure they dont belong to any caste, religion, creed , nation or even the human race. Because killing is an instinctual act where no rationality is involved. A human who relies only on his instict is a lesser human and more of a beast. But i dont know if to curse them as they are all " MENTALLY SICK".So may god help them from their suffering mind and give insight into their henious acts.

" Terrorism can kill humans, but not the spirit of human life".

MOTHERS WEEK- IS IT REALLY A HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Hi all, just read this news in mumbai mirror in the mothers day week
Mumbai Mirror Bureau

Eight days ago Gyananda Phulli tried to throw her four year old son from their fourth floor flat at Welfare Society, Annie Besant Road, Worli. She was stopped at the last minute by her neighbour Anita Sasane. This was the only clue to Phulli's disturbed state of mind. But her family chose to ignore the warning signs. On Thursday night, the 23-year-old once again threw down her son in a fit of rage and this time little Rishikesh was not so lucky.Neighbours say she frequently fought with her husband and othersEarly Saturday morning little Rishikesh who had been admitted to KEM hospital with severe concussion and multiple fractures succumbed to his injuries. Police say the 23 year old who has since been arrested suffered bouts of rage on account of her turbulent relationship with her husband, a peon at the MLA hostel at CST. The two had married five years ago against their parents’ wishes, so they did not have an extended support system. Their son was often the point of argument and Gyananda, who is said to be an alcoholic, would threaten to harm him if Ramesh did not mend his ways. Afraid that the child might come to harm, their neighbour Anita Sasane had actually taken the child away and handed him over to another family that lived on the ground floor. However, on Thursday, Gyanada brought the child back. The same night, she and her husband fought again, and this time she threw the child from the floor. Manisha Salunkhe, a 29-year-old woman who lives in the adjacent flat and who informed the police, said, “Gyanada had an alcohol problem and used to often beat up the child after getting drunk.
Gyananda who flung her son from this (circled) floorFed up with this, her husband had even gone to live with his mother at a nearby colony. However, he had returned a few days ago. Gyanada often used to get into fights with neighbours too. She even picked fights with me.”“Initially we booked her for causing grievous injuries to her son, but we did not arrest her as she was not well and in a state of shock. Now the charge has been converted to that of murder,” said Senior Inspector Bharat Worlikar of Worli police station.

"The hand that rocks the craddle, cracks the skull."

Is this the spirit of motherhood? I know for sure that this lady has killed her motherhood long back even before she killed her child. It just very frightening to think of the act being done by a mother so let us all attribute it to her mental condition...that may give us solace...atleast me.

A Beautiful relationship between a Teacher and a Student-->TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE

It’s very rare; I complete a book once I start it. This book kept me alive every moment. It pricked every cell in my body and my tear glands could not stop watering till the last page.
It’s a beautiful conversation between an old dying teacher (Morrie Schwartz) and his middle age student ( Mitch Albom) about the meaning of life. I wonder how many of us are lucky to have such wonderful teachers sparing their precious time to teach us lessons of life. A teacher who would guide you through the light of their knowledge without making you feel obligated to them. A teacher who would be more of a friend than a mere symbol of knowledge. We all are somewhere looking out for teachers in our lives to give clarity to our confused and tortured souls. On a second taught, I don’t see such a teacher surviving in Indian context. I may sound a little pessimistic on this one but there are reasons why I am saying this.
First is the issue of respect--> In our country a teacher is often revered and looked up towards. He or she is considered to be superior and not equal. Thus if a student were to be friendly with their teacher it could be interpreted as disrespect. In this book Tuesday with Morrie, Mitch often addresses Morrie by his name “Morrie” or in a friendly term as “Coach”. In our culture it would be almost considered a sin to call our teachers by their first name.”Maam” or “Sir” is more appropriate.
The issue of sparing their personal time--> Why would anyone want to spare their personal time for the personal growth of other. Also most teachers may not consider the other person’s personal growth as important, as it is not tangible. It is something that happens within a person which one can not see and thus they may consider the conversation as futile.
But on a more positive note, I am sure there are teachers who are waiting to teach their students to learn lessons of life.
In this touching book, Morrie is suffering from a life threatening illness called ALS, a detoriating neurological condition which has no cure. So when Mitch comes to know about his teacher’s illness through a television channel, he can’t keep himself away from his old teacher.


Morrie speaks about different aspects of life like love, forgiveness, family, marriage, culture, and death. With regard to Adult life crisis morrie speaks about the tensions of opposites.

He says” life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something’s hurt you, yet you know it shouldn’t. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.”

“A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle”.

With regard to love and emotions-->
“Love wins. Love wins all”.

“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in..”

“Sometimes you cannot believe what you see; you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too-even when you’re in the dark. Even when you’re falling.”

“Without love we are birds with broken wings”

“Don’t cling to things, because everything is impermanent. Learn to detach”

“Wash yourself with emotion. It won’t hurt you”

“Don’t let go soon, but don’t hang on too long”

The most beautiful thing in this book is the chemistry between Morrie and Mitch. On the last Tuesday when Mitch meets Morrie, Morrie’s last words to Mitch are “ love…you”, and Mitch replies “ I love you , too, Coach”. I wonder how many teachers may have ever told their student that they love them. It very common for students walking up to their teachers and displaying their love but not many teachers are sensitive enough to value their student’s emotions. That’s what I think is special about Mitch and Morrie.

“ A teacher affects eternity; she can never know where her influence lie”

My last six months....

Its been 6 months since i last wote my blog.I dont know what made me stop writting , may be it was by innate fear of overwhelmingly displaying my emotions. Even thought i am a quite straight foward in my dealing but since last8-9 months i had developed an intense fear of sharing my thoughts and a phobia of intimacy(which has disappeared now). May be it stemmed from the fear of rejection or press of rejection which was dwelling in my unconcious. What ever said and done these 6 months were full off ups and no downs...
so let me tell u about my 3 ups
1. Discovering my inner growing student--> god has been always graceful to me in giving me opportunities to grow and capture my dreams. One such dream which had been thriving in my heart was to teach in the same college from where i had finished my graduation. It is a very special place for me as it provided me conditions to be the person i wanted to be. It allowed me to spread my wings as far as i could with all the beautiful angels (my teachers) protecting my flight. I remember boasting to my friend during my masters years with full confidence that i am going to teach in Sophias and the question that was raised by them was what if there were no vacancies. I remember replying to one of them " if there is no vacancy i will create one". Fortunately thats turned out well and i got an offer from college even before i appeared for my masters second year. u can guess i was in heaven...
Even though i was overjoyed of being a part of my esteemed institution I was not prepared for what was to follow......to be a TEACHER...bcos i am not one. Its a word that is too heavy, respectfull and threathening. The student in me never allowed me to be a teacher.It was all a growing process with each day making me a more "mature student" than a teacher. I realized during my so called teaching sessions that it was difficult to be a teacher facing 80-90 students crumpled up, whispering all the time with their wide grins than to be a student who is still learning and trying to contribute to their knowledge. Thats what i did during my first year just contributed by having maximum discussions with theories and their applications. All this helped me in discovering my inner student and allowed me to grow.
2.Discovering my deisease--> you must be thinking why i have added this in my ups when most people would get unhappy to discover that they have some illness. But the thruth is before i discovered it, my health was quite miserable..i was suffering with extreme fatigue, weekness, memory loss,anxiety, burts of depression and extreme weight gain which made me feel even more frustrated. As it happens with all of us the "avoidance and denial syndrome"was guiding my behavior and i always attributed my symptoms to my stressful schedule and work. Until one day a student walked up to me after a lecture and as it is usually the case was complimenting on the kurta i was wearing after which she added" maam yur dark circles have increased..u look unwell..pls take care of ur self". I knew that came from genuie consern and i visited a doctor the very same day. Then came the series of test and a huge medical expense which made me aware of my deisease. So there it was, the root of all my suffering was my overblown Hypothyroidism. So if you have fatigue, weight gain, low motivation and ambition, heat and/or cold intolerance, headaches and migraines, dry skin and hair, irritability, anxiety and panic attacks, hair loss, fluid retention, depression, decreased memory and concentration, unhealthy nails, brittle nails, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, low sex drive, insomnia, hives, asthma, allergies, slow healing, acne, or carpaltunnel syndrome, you may have a thyroid disorder. Life became smoother, enjoyable and much more liveable after its diagnosis and medications.
3. Discovering love--> now this is interesting..u dont know when cupid strikes u. I got engaged on 20th of March 2008. Even though it was an arranged set up( which is quite threathening) with me meeting him only 4 times before i made the decision to spend my entire life with him. But the old saying goes true "sometimes you just have to believe what u feel". All my anti marriage views disappeared like heat in heavy rainfall and it did not take me much time to rise in love.:):):):):)

Learning for life:Miracle girl

A bike in your hand always brings excitement, especially if you get it after a lot of cajoling your parents. I got my riding license a month back, but never got a chance to take the bike out alone. This is because my parents fear I will meet with an accident resulting in some serious injuries. Even though I am quite confident about my riding, I am not about reading signals. I did bring a signal reading chart and stuck it on my ‘inspirational board’ four months back but was too lazy to learn it or read it. So even though I am a ‘rule follower’ I do sometimes break them due to my lack of knowledge.

On a bright sunny Tuesday morning (9th October 2007), after a lot of persuasion I took my machine and set of for all the work to be done for the day. The start was quite a confident one, but as the day became brighter, the tiredness set in and my concern shifted to just getting my work done. Even though I was able to complete most of my work I just needed a signature from my college office before it was time for them to shut. As I reached the crowded lanes of churchgate my confusion about the signals set in. With speeding vehicles all by my side, my brain was experiencing cognitive overload and my cognitive saturation reached a peak . My problem aggravated by the fact that I have a low threshold for daydreaming and fantasies and it starts off without an invitation.

As I was trying to reach my destination I could sense the danger sign ahead. I knew there was a signal and just wished that I could clear it as I was able to do the others. But as we say ‘the fortunate or unfortunate has to happen’ and so it did. I got dazzled by the number of signals present and did not know which one was mine, so assuming that the red was my sign I gave my speeding machine a sudden break. The next moment I saw my bike flying 20 meters and then came the bang-baaaaaaaaaag-bhup-dhupp-and the end result-a smashed undated bike. A huge crowd gathered around to see the bike and may be the rider’s condition. But to their surprise the rider was standing 20 meters away smiling in amusement. Yes, I was there and I really don’t know how.

To my surprise, the bike flew without carrying me. I realized that as I experienced a slight push, my reflexes were at work and my judo kick allowed the bike to start its flight beneath my 2 legs. So by gods grace the air is still circulating in my body, thus allowing the 'fortunate to rule:), but had I been on the bike the unfortunate would have been merrier:('.

Moral: Always study the rules of the game before you decide to play it.

ग़लत

कही तो ग़लत हु में
कही तो चुक गई हु
जिंदगी की राह में
ज़माने के साथ चलना भूल गई हु

कभी लगता है चलते चलते बदन की ताकत टूट रही है
कभी लगता है रूह की आहट थम गयी है
कितना और तरपावोगे मेरे रब
जीने की चाहत छुट गई है

कितना और प्यार करु में
कितनी मंगू आप से श्रमाँ
रोह रोह के आंशु नहीं थमते
फिर भी पिघलता नहीं आप का जिया

कितना और दुत्कारो गे
कितनी और करोगे हमारी निंदा
माँगा ही क्या है हमने आप से
की रूक रूक के कदम बढ़ाते हो

माना की हम है थोरे से नासमज
जीवन की भुल्भुलिया न समज सके
लेकिन आप तू है ज्ञानी
फिर क्यों न समज सके आप हमारी काहानी

फिर भी हमे नहीं आप से कोई गिला
समज सकते है हम आप की पीडा
आप ने तो दी थी हमें शिक्षा
लेकिन न ले सके हम ही सही दिशा

Lovely love...

Love is a blessing,
Love is a sin,
Life without it is living in a din.

Love is a game,
Played in rain,
Every second day it brings some pain.

Love is fun,
Holding hands in sun,
Being together but still on a run.

Love is destructive,
Love is curative,
Togetherness is what it makes it productive.

Love is blind,
Love is difficult to find,
It is a game not played with mind.

Love makes you dance,
Love takes you in a trance,
Without love happiness has no chance.

Love is death,
Love is sorrow,
In its absence there is no life tomorrow.

7.Others are merely mirrors of you.
8. What you make of your life is up to you.
9.Your answers lie inside you.
10.You will forget all this.

"We are victims in life until we want to be."

No need for tension...

The moment you are in tension.
You will lose your attention.
Then you are in total confusion and you'll feel irritation.
Then you'll spoil personal relation.
Ultimately, you won't get any co-operation.
Then you'll create more complication, and then your BP may also raise caution.
And you may have to take medication.
Instead, understand the situation and
try to think about the solution.
many problems will be solved by discussion.
Which will work out better in your profession.
Don't think it's my free suggestion.
It is only for your prevention.
If you understand my intention,
You'll never again take any tension..!
HAPPY:)

Unwanted Visitors

In a bustling hospital room,
Lying on the bed she looked around,
At times Smiling at the visitors,
Other times shutting her eyes in an attempt to hide her agony.

Well wishers waiting outside her room,
Hoping for their turn to come soon,
Biting their nails in genuine apprehension,
For a loved one whose health is causing them tension.

Looking at the doctor entering,
The well wishers started pondering,
He gave them reassurance with a slight smile,
Then telling them it’s just a jaundice why don’t you all relax for some time.

Inside the room though on a high dosage,
She tried to keep her eyes open in an attempt not to offend,
Innately wishing for them to leave,
She showed her distress through her nonverbal plea.

But alas they wouldn’t budge,
Leaving her with “another” whom they do no trust,
For “another” they do not know,
As they are just here for the one who is laid without a glow.

Ultimately she uttered a few words in pain,
Asking her loved ones to leave in vain,
Understanding her trepidation with pure intension,
They left her without any hesitation.

A LOST WANDERER

Few days back while waiting on the the bus stop i came across a lady with mental illness. Her vulverability made me conserned for all the people suffering from mental illness in our country.This poem is dedicated to all the people fighting their illness and to all the people working towards eradicating mental illness.



A Lost Wanderer

Lost in her own world,
Famished by the neck,
Shabby in her dress,
Unaffected she goes….

Murmuring to herself,
Sometimes laughing, sometimes crying,
Indifferent to eyes around,
Unaffected she goes…

Children throwing pebbles,
People calling her names,
Street hooligans behaving nasty,
Unaffected she goes…

She has no hope,
Nobody to call her own,
Undaunted by others behavior,
Unaffected she goes…

If she would have a mind of an ordinary,
A though would undoubtedly run through her,
“If I had AIDS, cancer or TB, I would be put to heal,
People would show fake concern, lacking compassion.
In a country where even beggars are fed why am I starving?
Where is my dignity? Where is my respect?
I am ill. So what if it’s a mental illness…”

Surely then she would be troubled,
By people’s perception and mindset,
But today she is atypical, strange and unaffected,
Away from the pretentious world that once made her vulnerable.

A Threatening word: "Discipline"

Discipline is a word not liked my many. But most will not deny it that if you discipline your life to do small things you don’t like; you can get in return the big things you like.
Self discipline also helps in achieving wonders. Getting your self to study early every morning or sleeping early at nights, avoiding party for studying, gyming at least thrice a week, avoiding smoking can go a long way. It not only leads to reducing future anxiety and tension but also helps to avoid negative energies that would have disintegrated the positive ones. Thus we can live healthier along with performing well in exams/work by just self disciplining ourselves.
The best part of self discipline is that you do not need other people to discipline you. You are the grand master and completely in control of your self. Thus you can live fully and be in charge of your life.
When people don’t have self discipline they expect others to discipline them, thus running the risk of others taking control over them.

“Discipline is not what a teacher teaches you, it is some thing that comes out of a virtuous soul”.
This article is inspired by Andrew Mathews, the writer of “Follow your heart”.

THE PINK DOVE

There was a time when the sun never shined,
The darkness prevailed and the white dove was about to die.

She was the most loved, cherished and cared
But god knows why she was so despaired.

She had many associates the parrots, the pigeons, the sparrows and the crows.
All were her friends though she never thought so.

Her despair, disenchant, disillusion and the consequent psychic death was slow.
But her turbulent mind, watering eyes and trembling legs were always on the go.

There was no reason for the fear as they were not even near.
But she had no choice as her soul was seared.

But then one day trudging through her way,
She came across an enchanting pink dove by the bay.

Pink she was with a golden hallow.
Her tender radiance made the white dove glow.

The pink dove' s affability, responsiveness, and compassion.
Made the white doves’ rebirth a sure succession.

In the pink doves warmth she discovered herself,
The despair was useless and the pain was stale.

Now the white dove chirps like never before
Her heart is free and fears are no more.

No more of disillusion. No more of despair.
The white dove is flying with strong wings that need no repair.
