A New Beginning


A year of content
A year of regrets
A year of agitation
A year of ambitions

It was a wonderful year
Wasn't it?

Every path was worth taking
Every lesson was worth learning
Every experience was worth having
Every moment was worth living

It was a wonderful year
Wasn't it?

Anger and regrets did bother
Hate and evil did pester
But Love and care didn't cost
And Loved ones were never lost

It was a wonderful year
Wasn't it?

A year of ecstasy
A year of victory
A year of health
A year of wealth

It will be a wonderful year
Won't it?

Every day will be worth living
Every dream will be worth dreaming
Every joy will be worth sharing
Every person will be worth having

It will be a wonderful year
Won't it?

Anger will be subdued by love
Regrets will be mended by time
Love and kindness will prosper
Hate and evil will wither

Aye ! It will be a wonderful year
Blending every emotion in right quantity
Giving a new version of you in finest quality
It certainly will be grand.

Times change.!


Letter box was once the most visited
Arrival of letters was once the most awaited
Times have changed
Letterbox turned into mailbox
Awaiting turned into glancing

Sitting under stars was once the most secure
Walking on roads was once the most serene
Times have changed
Stars turned into buildings
Travellers turned into tourists

Meeting people was once the most social
Talking in person was once the most jovial
Times have changed
Meetings changed into events
Talking changed into comments

Living with parents was once the smartest
Celebrating the success of peers was once the happiest
Times have changed
Living turned into visiting
Admiring turned into flattering

Gazing at nature was once the most effectual
Giving selflessly was once the most actual
Times have changed
Seeing turned into clicking
Giving turned into snatching

Religion once had no boundaries
People once did not belong to countries
Times have changed
Religion turned into superstitions
Countries turned into partitions

Times have changed
Everything has changed
But one thing is just the same
It's still a game.

It's a Miracle or Is it .?

Don’t wait for miracles Make them happen

' If it’s meant to be it will be '- a widely spread clichéd proverb.Things can’t happen just by themselves. You do them. Let me shed some light on it with a small story.

One fine day in the midst of chaos of the city one tall handsome man was walking his way back to home from work. That day he got a salary hike and a dear friend came to town for visiting him. He was so happy. Everything was going the way he wanted . While walking down the road he came across a shop having some antiques from a well known museum and paintings by renowned artists. He thought it would be a nice present as his friend was fond of such antiques. So he walked in the store where a beautiful lady greeted him .He asked for the most costliest item present in the store . The lady directed him to a antique vintage painting. His friend was a phenomenal painter, so he walked with her to see the price It was worth 200 pounds. At once he asked the lady to pack it as a gift item.
He took a cab to a café where he was going to meet his friend, Overexcited with the thought of seeing him after so many years. He reached the café in about 30 minutes. He saw his friend from a distance,
 waiting for him , too much engrossed in himself . In their early days It was a usual place to hangout. They met and hugged each other with another clichéd phrase ‘Hey Buddy I missed You’. Before uttering another sentence he gifted the painting to his friend. Let’s call the hero of story as X and his friend as Y (Sorry but Being an Engineering student X and Y are my best companions). Y was not surprised with the cost of the gift because X used to be a extravagant type of person from the time they first met. They started discussing about their life and careers. X had a consistently exponentially varying kind of career while Y had just the reverse and was worried about his future. Since Y had seen extremely bad times in his life living in poverty he was used to his dooming life and he had already left everything on his beloved God and started living life in solitude making social contacts almost close to -1 (even running away from the people who approach him that’s why it’s 0-1 ) .Except X he was different ,a close friend .X gave him a hope to fight his weaknesses ,to give a fresh start ,suggested him ‘Maybe you should quit your job and do what you love’ with a very enigmatic phrase ‘Don’t wait for miracles, Do It and say It happened because it was intended to happen’.

7 Years passed , The situation was same X walking his way back to home, got a double salary hike, extremely happy as Y was visiting his town ,saw the same antique shop , stopped by to buy a present, greeted by the same lady , asked the costliest item in the shop ,lady directed him to a magnificent painting But Now this time instead of reading the price his eyes caught the name of painter engraved as ‘Y’.

It wasn’t luck or a miracle. It happened because the hero (who isn’t X now) wanted it to be that way. He had a choice and he made it. If you get something ,you don’t deserve it’s not because it was your destiny ,It’s a mere coincidence. There can be countless arguments denying this fact because miracles do happen. But with the probability 1/1000000 Remaining 999999 people make it to destiny by themselves even if it appears to you like a miracle. That’s the harsh reality but true. Stars are with you only when you pour your heart completely for something you love. You can not quit even if you are tired It’s you who started it So It won’t be nature God or anyone else to finish it off. You can’t just hold back and wait for a miracle. Either you are going to do it by yourself or it isn’t happening. But yes you can say it otherwise ‘It happened because it was intended to happen’. 

So next time you leave it to God do believe that it’s the last thing on your mind because if not ,you would never ever had given up on it.
Believe in your stars but just Don’t wait for miracles Make them happen Life is too short to wait for anything .

A tale of unknown YET familiar faces

In the multitude of unfamiliar faces
There was a face trying to find its existence
Among several good and madeup faces
There was a face holding smile at a distance.
Every face had a heroic story to tell
Every face had a righteous reason to dwell
Fears and tears faded away in oblivion
A glimmer of hope lit up in ambition
Days unfolded , time flied
Mere acquaintances started becoming life
With all the work piled up at desk
Countless priceless moments were sneaked
Lifting each other in ups and downs
Helping each other in dusk and dawn
Giggling mocking had no end
Yet comforting each other at every bend
Walked a mile in hardness
Left a shadow in darkness
Feared to say goodbyes
They departed and just smiled.

Darkness Eluded by Light



She thought is there a way out of this
Depressed with the moments she miss
Her heart pounded and gave her an answer
It's just the beginning One day you will be a happy prancer
Everytime she tried to move on and forget
Something tied her to the first time they met
Pondering and wondering at her actions so valiant
She couldn't find a reason why she suddenly became a vagrant
Asked herself the same question a million times
Is it a dawn or a dusk or just an unforgettable crime?
But While trying to recollect the remnant
She found innumerable infinities in every moment.
And...
That was a beginning of the sunrise
Murky darkness was eluded by eternal sunshine.

Time. !


‘Its kinda  funny how life can change
Can flip 180 in a matter of days….’

Nothing is permanent. Everything is subject to change.Whether it’s about life ,feelings,person ,situation or circumstances. It doesn’t take even a second for these things to change. One moment  when you really start feeling  that the world around you is much more than perfect , the very next moment life makes you realize that it isn’t.Whether you call it a destiny or just a change for a good cause. At that state of mind what actually hurts are the memories. And so some people wish for a life with delete or rewind buttons while others take it as a experience.Many a times the thing which always proved to be your strength suddenly becomes your weakness.Time doesn't even make you realize this transformation.It's just a matter of time.

 TIME- The one only factor which acts as a friend at the same it’s the only one enemy that we can never escape. It gives us so many moments to cherish and simultaneously makes us realize that we are not immortal. I heard a quote from a Mr.Gregory  in a Tv series ‘Mr.house ‘  stated  “Times changes everything,  That's what people say. But It's not true. Doing things changes things. Not doing things ,leaves things exactly as they were." It’s the perfect sentence that contradicts the worldwide accepted fact “Time heals everything”.

 According to me both the facts are true in their own ways.The significance of time comes  across the zigzag of life when too many things going on around us make us stressed.At that particular time we need to have some patience as the path unfolds itself. But after that its not the time that changes things but you have to do that by yourself.As quoted above time can simply add on as a factor for helping you out of the problem or even can drove you into it.Which one of these will happen is decided by our attitude towards the hurdle .

After every sunset there is a sunrise.’If you are sitting at the top of the world then its also gonna change after every 24 hours.’More concisely , A change for good ,A change for worse whichever it is, there is always  a lesson to be learned. Playing safely ,hiding behind the shades is a bigger risk than facing the changes.It is said that ‘Be the change you want to see in the world’.So in order to build a safe future you have to face the challenges whatsoever arrives in between .Some people doesn’t even realize that these changes are inevitable part of human life and so they stubbornly  keep stuck on their past and thereby making  time as their enemy. We need to accept that change is the inseparable part of life even if we want or not we can not change the process so its wiser to accept it and move on in life.

So If you are stuck at some situation which feels like just inescapable then what you need to do is simply wait but don’t forget your purpose of life. Replace your negativity with positive beliefs .Life certainly has much better surprises coming all over the way just for you. Dont let the change take away your smile. Face that change with a smile and just see the miracle ,Destiny will definitely change if We are willing to change it…J

The One thing holding you back in life

"If You want to know where your heart is,look to where you mind goes when it wanders."

There are certain instances in life when you realize that your life is completely messed up.There's isn't a thing which is actually in its place. It is a very common problem which most of us come across in our lives when we live a life which actually doesn't belong to us.
We spend our whole lives doing what we 'should do' and not actually what we 'want to'  either due to the expectations of our closed ones or because everyone else is doing that. It's a common belief that the thing which gives you more money ,status or power is worth doing but what about the satisfaction.?  In this blind race people tend to forget that satisfaction or happiness doesn't come from what we intellectually are supposed to do but instead what we intuitively want to. 

Most of the times we are confused about what to do with our life whether it is about work or relationships.Who doesn't want to get a 'good secured job' , with monthly earnings in lakhs. But have you ever thought that, is that money going to give you any sort of comfort more correctly happiness , If you are just stuck at your workplace from morning 8 to evening 8 waiting for the weekends and not enjoying a single bit of your work.? You will be desperate for the weekends to come when you can take a break from your job-place , spending time with friends and taking out all sort of frustration about your work.At that time you will realize that instead of going after what others were doing if you had chosen what you really loved ,Your life would be much simpler because Sometimes it's all about your ability to believe in where you are going even when you are not sure about what lies ahead.

Taking engineering stream after high school is one of the most common example of a mass imitation.There are less than 10% of people who really want to be good engineers and excel in their field.I have a friend who has taken this stream just because her best friend was taking it .What's the sense in doing such things.? No doubt , she will complete her graduation because getting marks in any sort of examination is not really a tough task but what about her future?? The future which she is going to face is in complete darkness.I asked her once whether she is happy with her life.? And she had nothing to say in response.
Whatever you allow to happen will always continue until and unless you taken a step to make it correct.The same applies to the relationships.Getting in any relationship due to someone's expectations is an easy task but to live it ,is the thing in which most of the people generally fail.

So now the question of the hour is Are you happy with your life?
Are the things which you do in leisure time , the ones you intuitively want to do or simply because you are supposed to do them?
What you actually want to do? Though it is a tough one to answer but you have to find it for your good future..You have to do what actually defines you as a person, who you really want to be.People generally chose the most easiest way of finding an answer to this 'The counselors' .But instead of approaching a counselor you can do it by yourself. You just need to sit back for a moment ,rewind whatever you did so far in your life ,what all things actually gave you happiness ,what sort of work you enjoy the most..And there You will find your answer. It really works.
You don't really have to live your life, all-time filling someone Else's expectations .When You will assemble every piece of your life not by any assumption but consciously it will feel like its all yours now, not driven by anyone else, totally crafted and painted by your own colors.The way it really has to be.
