Words To Reflect On.


I am mentally still at the place which I visited today late in the evening... I went to a Rehabilitation center where there were several Traumatic victims..! So insecure of the outside world... Fear of standing up again could be seen in their eyes... I happened to notice a woman sitting in the darkest corner of the room... I asked the caretaker as to what went wrong her.. and she told me that she was a victim of Domestic Violence... and I said that this is so wrong on the part of her husband to do such a thing to his own Wife..!! , to which the caretaker replied , "If it was only him,it could have been taken care of.. But what about the Father-in-law and the Sister-in-law ?".. I was shocked and all I could say was.. Why ??!
                                                                 She told me that the girl in the corner has seen the worst side of life... She was constantly tortured for Dowry at her in laws.. Her father passed away many years back.. leaving a petty share of belongings for her mother.. but still she got her married and soon her mother passed away too... and here she is...all alone... on her own... The caretaker could see that I got a little upset hearing all this.. So she gave me a glass of water.. and gathering my thoughts I asked her..,"Why is it that a Woman has to suffer, no matter whose fault it might be..? " To this she explained, " The worst enemy of a Woman is her own mind... It does not let her reason appropriately... All it cares about is the Society.. children..financial strength and reputation... but somewhere it forgets all about humanity.." With this she just smiled and told me to always keep hoping for the best because God is always listening...! I smiled back at her and thanked her and said that I'll come back for a visit soon...

A NEW MOBILE..!!

It's been over a week since I lost my cellphone.. It was not a very expensive one to cry over but I still do miss it like hell..! I still remember the day when I bought it.. I was so excited about possessing it that I used to show it off in front of my younger siblings,since they did not have any..!
                                                                       The cellphone I lost was a Nokia Product,so stable that it never gave me any reason to change it(Was a little frustrating at times though) But nevertheless, I never did regret buying it.. And now, that I am without it I feel like I am incomplete..! That addiction of looking at the cellphone numerous times.. either for a message or to check on the time.. whatever be it.. I always kept it by my side.. But that day when I was out for some work.. And just to cut the long story short..I was home when I realized that I was without my Cell and I felt so bad that I wish I could make the clock reverse and get it back.. Many people say that I have this Crazy habit of taking care of things to the Limit.! Although I don't completely believe it but it was true in case of my Handset.. 
                                                                                        I will be getting a new one today.. but I really wonder how difficult it could be without a Mobile.. But the best part was that I never got any intimation of my results..! :-) Although people posted it on Facebook but luckily I was out of town so never logged in... At present I am just waiting for my handset which I ordered online... The site said that it would be delivered before 6 p.m... Let's see how prompt they are...! Oh... My doorbell just rang.. I think I know who it might be... ;-)

A SWEET REGRET....

I was watching a movie last night... a romantic one....  and some parts of the movie really touched me.... although the entire movie was bit of a drag... but I loved the message it gave....and then I thought that it is not that love will always make one happy... It can be painful too.... and here's what i came up with....

"I am sitting in my room all alone,
I hear nothing but the rain...
As the wind passes me by,
I remember all my years of pain...
Maybe I was obsessed but I really cared for you,
Maybe I overdid.. but all I did was to protect you...
Maybe you never saw me,
neither the love in my eyes...
When you said you loved me,
I think that was your sweetest lie...
Memories of my past flashes in my mind,
But your sweetest kiss of love,will always be in my mind...
I think love is not meant for me,
Maybe I'll never get it...
But when I look at you,
I don't think I deserve it...."

LET'S ALL TURN BLIND....


A child knows no race,
A child knows no religion,
He doesn't know the words of hate that surface,
On the tongues of the million that breathe...

A Child doesn't know what is a temple or mosque,
because he believes in one divine power, one lord,
but soon he finds the difference,
because we taught him all.....

A child doesn't see to which race a person belongs,
before lending a helping hand to the person in need,
but soon he becomes aware of of the races and takes away his hand,
because that is what we want him to do and believe....

A child makes friends with the people he is happy with,
and he sees no rich or poor,
but soon he realizes that a poor friend is of no use and his wisdom begins to fall,
he starts seeing only the rich because we taught him all....

We go on teaching this child thinking that he does not understand,
but all we did was take away the little things he understood well,
We fail to teach him humanity, friendship and love for his land,
The very essence of life is what we forget to tell....

A child is the father of the man they say,
which is true because it is the child who teaches us to live,
with free spirits and love for every living being,
and show us what this life truly means...

We all have forgotten that we are children too,
of this great mother earth,
so why not live like a child and and create a place all new,
a land which we can only dream,let's make it come true....

Without you

A small piece of writing that I wanted to share from a long time... This is not written by me, but my uncle...but is something that helped me learn something new about life... someone's beautiful outlook towards life....
                                    Here it is...
      " When we met for the first time.. I said I love you... Our world was beautiful.. Then as we enjoyed the blessings of life,this world was a wonderful place to live... With kids around, we were happy in our own small world.. Time passed, Time changed, our kids had grown up... We realized that we have become old... But these diseases bring us closer.. We shared life... we were happy... our world was small... Then things became difficult, times were hard... but we had no complaints... Then on that day... the day that destroyed my world... The world was a very cruel place to live- Without you.. You knew you were going... we held hands... You made me promise to take care of self and kids.. I promised you, you took my word and left this world... my world was shattered.. I was down, depressed, broken.. you were my world and now my world was gone... I had no business to be in this world- Without you...I thought of coming to your world...but then I remembered the time we shared... the things we did for each other... the things we did to keep our promises.. Then I remembered the promise I made you and to keep my word... I have to live...live happily without a complaint... live with an objective and a smile.... Now I share your love with people around, my world had changed.. it's beautiful.. it's big... I know you are around... This is how you wanted me to be....Without you.."

A MATRIX OF WORDS

I just signed in my blogspot account and thought of writting something philosophical.. ( I was really in mood at that moment )... But I thought of expressing it in a different manner and here's what I came up with...


Life has numerous mysteries to unfold,
Some are well heard of and some never told,
Time and life go hand and hand,
And only these can help us to know where we stand,
Don't count your friends.. neither your foes,
Because in the end what will remain will be your soul,
Don't think about the times when you received,
Think about a single moment you gave,
Everything is deceptive and may fall someday,
But the purity of your soul is what you need to save,
Don't think about the things done but what are yet to be resolved,
Prepare for each night and wake up new each day,
Let go everything with the falling sun,
Let your dreams persist in your eyes so that they never go away,
Let each breath of yours remind you of your dream,
And every heartbeat of your desire to fulfill it,
Time slips away just like a flowing stream,
And it may wash away or may stronger your dream,
Let your heart guide you to your way,
Don't use your brain too much..for it may lead you astray,
We should never be tempted by the worldly riches,
Because temptations are temporary,
One which stays is life's undivided glory,
Once attained will last forever,
And it will always stay with the clever,
Don't wait for anything for long,
Just find the right place where you truly belong.......






A LONG TIME BACK

Just yesterday itself it so happened that my brother returned from school and like a disciplined child kept his bag neatly on the shelf .. where it belonged... Changed his clothes and sat down on the dining table for lunch... My mother served everyone and we all relished the food she made that day... !!
                                                    It was late in the afternoon and me , my mother and my brother were just having a talk like we always do.... And my brother mentioned that they had a seminar at their school today , in which 15 schools were invited to attend it.. I asked him as to what the seminar was about to which he answered that it was on "Science and the growing Technology "... I remembered that we never had such seminars in our schools and so I wanted to hear all about it.... My brother kept telling us the numerous things he got to learn from the seminar... And me and my mother were listening very attentively.. Then my brother told us that there was a "question and answer" session too and amongst the mass , a girl stood up and asked "We all know that human's have evolved from monkeys.. Then how come the monkeys are not yet extinct.. ?? "..!! (I don't remember which species of monkey the girl was talking about but by being extinct she meant a particular species not monkeys as whole ).. I enquired , what was the answer given to the girl and he said that the concerned person told him that if I love ice-cream and after some time I get a sudden liking for sundaes.. Which is a modified form of ice-cream.. Would ice-creams become extinct..??
                                                      I tried to relate it with the question and discussed it with my mother and my brother.. My mother agreed with the girl that the monkeys should have been extinct by now if we have evolved from them... But I was not yet satisfied... I questioned my mother that one theory says that we all are brothers and sisters since we all come from one parent.. that is Adam and Eve.. To which my mother said that maybe that it is true , since it is a very popular belief , but my brother interrupted saying that if it was true.. like most of the people believe then why are we called the descendants of monkeys...!!! My mother answered that it is just one of the theories but science believes in facts and they say so since we have a Tail bone...(Not much evolved...or else we all would have tails..!!!) And it was my mother who bought "Darwins theory " into the discussion... The theory is based upon "Survival of the fittest"... And I explained to my mother and my brother that if we consider this theory then it is possible that a long time back... long before the birth of human civilization... A group of monkeys evolved... that is their intelligence level was higher than the other monkeys at that time.. Due to this acquired intelligence they must have learned the skills of living... And eventually mastered them... and hence established a civilization...Learnt to build houses , eat cooked food (After they discovered fire.. ofcourse..!!)... and so on..And the rest of the undeveloped lot could not cope up with the changes... and hence remained where they where.. (as monkeys).. Hearing this my mother appreciated me for my thinking but at the same time started laughing...!!
                                                    I demanded the reason to which she said that one could get a nobel prize for doing a job as easy as suggesting theories..!!!
