Falling Pieces Of Love

Before I start, let me tell you that I am not writing a story that start with "Once upon a time" but I am writing my thoughts about the relationship for generation where I belong. I am not suggesting what is good or bad because I fall in the same boat (or think similarly hence I will use "We"!). So, here is few questions to start with - have you ever thought about why people suddenly become so inept at holding relationship? Why it is so hard today? Why we fail each time, even when we try our best? Have we forgotten how to love or what love is?

We are looking for instant indulgence in everything. The things we post on social media, the career we choose, the friends we make, and the the people we fall in love with. It is not love we are looking for, only temporary excitement and thrill in life. We don't want partner in life but someone who can make us feel alive for that very instant. We belong to a generation where our threshold for passion, patience, and commitment has become very low. We are not prepared for the sacrifices and compromises it takes to grow unconditional love - we want everything easy. Even single hurdle is enough for us to get out of any situation. We let things go before even trying based on our own narrow minded judgements.

We are living life as daydreams. We are so busy in chasing materialistic things in our life and there is no room for people who really care for us. We want someone to come with us to party, movie, or trip, but we don't want someone who really understands and willing to do anything just to make you feel happy. We like to spend time together, but we don't want to make memories because it is too cliche (right?). We are blinded by the thrill of adventure and short term pleasure that love is too boring - people say they don't have a time, ha-ha!

This is generation of quick "Make-up" and "Break-up". Our physical presence has no more importance because we are too busy in texting, chatting, and writing posts on social media. We don't think spending time together because we quickly judge people and assume there is nothing left to know. We decide to have Sex first, then decide if you like it or not - Sex with a stranger is new Cool!! We forget that sex comes easy, loyalty doesn't. We believe in meeting more people, but not right people. We believe in having "Options". We get into relationship with slightest attraction and step-out, the moment we find someone better.

The relationship is simple, no more. There is an open relationship, one night stands, no string attached, friend with benefit and many.. We date many people but hardly give a chance to anyone who really cares. We are the practical generation that love is very sensible for us. I think we are scared to fall, to get hurt. We like to lurk from behind the wall, so we can run away the moment we find love - we suddenly can't handle so much love!!

There is nothing I or you can change after reading this because everyone thinks differently, even your closest friend or family. The purpose of writing this long is to remind you of human natural instinct. Also, I am not presenting any biased view, it is nothing but some of my observations. It is an individual choice to live their life in their on term, but if you really want to live life with feel then when you find love - don't avoid it, don't suppress it, and don't judge it for your own good.

Thank You, My Brother

It is very common human tendency that we always appreciate the world around us, but fail to appreciate the people in your own small world called family who are responsible for your success and provide support during all ups and downs.

Today, through this poem, I really want my idol to know how very much you are important to me.

I still remember the childhood we shared
The time you have been there, just to care
I just can't imagine growing up without you
Those times of the past that only you and I could tell
You are always my mirror not my mere choice
In hard times you are my support and my voice
Though life has many ways to take our test
You have always encouraged me to go for the best
I aimed to climb higher in this life than I cared to go
Because you believed in me and helped me to grow
I appreciate for the sacrifice you made that I know
Thank you, my brother,
I really feel blessed and lucky to have you so

Life's Purpose

Tulips grows so high,
as each rain diverge by ..
The blossom remains crimson coy,
as newer waves keep my buoy..
Though puzzled by my steady anchor,
Life has surely unroll my banter..
Personifying my soul as calm and caring
Emotions are dangled suppress and joyous,
as I attempt to stumble upon ....
My life's purpose !

Mumbai Express

A single trip is enough to mesmerize anyone who travels through Mumbai trains though I am not writing about any new or innovative still not obscure. For many Mumbaiker this may be quotidian journey generating every day new story.

Mumbai a booming city where day and night seem to be overlapping , Time is running with celerity, and to match that even Mumbai railway running continuous and honestly doing their duty. People prefer Mumbai trains for quotidian traveling which contributed to cheap rate compare to other public transport or  fastest public transport or whatever reason it may be, but Mumbai people love to travel by trains. It has frequency which is well suited for Mumbai people as some trains stop at all stations and some at selective. A train which takes halting at selective station referred as 'Fast Train' and not because it is running fast compare to other trains, but because it saves time by taking hold at selective stations - funny!!

On the other side of coin, there is overcrowding, which is cause of stampedes, delay in train arrival, tracks crossing - people knew the risk and facts that on an average, 3,700 people die annually on the Mumbai suburban rail network. Some people don't bother to purchase ticket for their travel, few people travel over trains roof very near to overhead wire charging at 25000 volts, hanging on train foot board, incidence of terrorist attack and many more to list. People are taking fatal risk intentionally or unintentionally and it is not just what I had seen but experienced. This is because of population which is growing at swooping rate and opportunity provided by the financial capital of India.

Despite of all this Mumbaikars keep moving till 'Ek Chalis Ki Last Local' and still singing "woh kehte hai na, jo hota hai achche ke liye hota hai sahi kehte hai"

Make yourself Happy

Do you want to inspire yourself quickly? If yes, then this is the perfect time to read this and make yourself happy. Often in life demands us many things and we will give our best to accomplish this thing, but are you always happy and enthusiastic? When you concentrate on making yourself happy at a deep level, you benefit others too. If you see a happy person, don´t you start wondering how being one yourself?

Sometime struggle is exactly what we need in our lives. Most of us think that if there is no struggle and everything is available within the blink of an eye than life is so good and everyone will be happy. But I think life without struggle is nothing if you understand the meaning of this line- ‘If God allowed us to go through our lives without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. We could never fly!’

If you want to make yourself happier than you need to change only your way to looking at each problem and struggle you do for that. There is always reason behind each and everything you do. God gave us everything what we need. When you asked for strength god gave you difficulties to make yourself stronger. When you asked for wisdom god gave you problem to solve. When you asked for prosperity god gave you brain and two hands to work. When you asked for courage god gave you danger to overcome. When you asked for love god gave you strength to save trouble people and when you asked for favor god gave you opportunities. In short, ‘you received nothing you wanted but received everything you needed.’

Now you must understand real meaning of life that ‘If everyone happy with you than surely you have made many compromises in your life and if you are happy with everyone than surely you have ignored many fault of others…!’

Every cloud has a silver lining

Every cloud has a silver lining is a idiom which people often used to comfort somebody who is going through bad times. It is always possible to get something positive out of a situation, no matter how unpleasant, difficult or even painful it might seem.

Writing about this topic one thing which struck to my mind is song dedicated to two animated character of Thomas and friend music video Bill and Ben which is ,

Life is full of surprises, full of ups and downs
And so to have a silver lining, first there must be a cloud

Bill and Ben the twins work together all day long

They sometimes disagree how things are done

They get down in the dumps

If things they do don't work out just as planned

But if at first you don't succeed then understand

There's no sense in worrying if things start going wrong

Obstacles can all be overcome

But even Bill and Ben both agree that in the end

If you never lose hope, you're sure to cope and carry on

Every cloud is silver-lined, even when it rains

So don't get too downhearted, as things are bound to change

All you've gotta do is wear a smile and you will find

Your sun will shine

Bill and Ben are tank engine twins that work for some clay company. These two character face many problems in there life but finally agreed upon fact that if you do not lose hope there must be silver lining which can be understood from the above song. Of course, this is not real character but it will provide a lots of inspiration.The world we live in is not perfect, and we will never ever find such a world which philosopher Plato talked about. Every day there will be things that make us cry or feel sad about our selves. So people who will stand in front of difficulties which they face, they will be able to improve them selves and let their dream come true.

Most good and bad things have a upside or downside, there are no absolutes, so we must not worry ourselves too much with what going on in our life, rather we must be up to challenge every day, and be prepared to see that silver lining in every dark cloud.

Cricket or Craze

Yes, it is religion of every Indian. It is good to be sporty but harmful to be obsessed with any sport. Craziness of Cricket in India is much more than any other country which can be view as both good as well as bad for the nation.

"In 2011 world cup, India and Srilanka playing there final match. All Indians including me were glued to television whole day and watching exiting match and why not it is World cup final...!!". But do u think it is good for nation to keep one day off..?? and answer can be yes or no. Yes because it is world cup final and No because the most shocking news came last year when nation's GDP decreased by 5% because of employees who were supposed to be working in their office were sitting in their houses watching Cricket. sounds ridiculous..!!

Sports are played on international planes to bring unity and friendship among nations. But how dose one explain the slurring by players during India-Pakistan cricket matches? How does this help in cultivating friendship? And what about T.V sets breaking in an outrage by supporters of the team that dose not win. Complete madness!Our nation has spent months discussing where the nation's most loved sport heading? Nothing new, we do this after every match and then back with our own normal lives.

From last few years, Cricket has taken one more step toward craziness known as IPL where not only common people but all big personality of India are taking part including businessman, film stars and politicians. Cricket has became business and true sport spirit faded. On 8th April IPL is going start with ten teams and whole program will last for fifty-one days this year. Television showing advertisement of IPL and announcing 'Bharat Band' for fifty one day - really crazy! But the time we spend on pondering on the issue and wasting fifty-one days for IPL can be utilized for the development of our own selves and finally in the development of our country.

Of course I am not suggesting to stop watching a Cricket match or any sports, but I am suggesting to watch, enjoy and show your Cricket love with your own and nations on going development. Do not become crazy behind any sports. Enjoy and cheer for the sports you love the most but as true Indian. Do not let Cricket master you..!!
