Priceless LIFE.

Mumbai mayhem is over. Positive aftermaths & actions have begun.
As I sit here miles away from that place, I have come to know how it all has changed my perception towards life. Never ever did I realize that every moment holds a story to it & we never know which of these can be a bad one? I am moved emotionally & mentally only to find more importance of life. Laid down below are some words I have written for my own self. You may not find these words sane. You may not understand the post If this be the case then apologies beforehand.

This small world with so many people present in it. Of which few faces I know.
Of these few ones some I love…I adore… I respect… I worship…I like…I despise…
But they all comprise my own smaller world. And I never gave it a thought that this beautiful dream of mine is so vulnerable. While I may be busy collecting sunshine for my world I may fail to see the stars already there.
Now that I’ve come to know, I’ve also learn how precious each day (that goes off well) is. And I’ve also realized why in school at morning prayers, we used to thank God for even the food we eat & the breath we take.
From now onwards “living” for me ………
Is not about adding years to my life,
It’s about adding life to those years.
And about my world ……I treasure it more then ever before.

.......forever more!

It was the darkest evening ever………….though the light of thunder, sound of storm, there was none.
Tears rolled my cheeks, my eyes stared onto his cold face, in dismay. I felt as if the moment freezed when he uttered the words “We can’t be together anymore”. How can I fail, how can I loose in my biggest bargain. It was about my life my very existence which to me mattered no more. I gave up everything for love & today love gave up on me.
Hopeless & vulnerable as I stood there, he turned his back & went ahead; leaving everything behind, even me.
Shattered though I was but heart failed to believe what ears just heard. My promise was broken………I thought of the words he did not keep….......that he would love me forever more. I closed my eyes to feel the pain.


PS: The 1st comment I received for this post is quite weird. Therefore I would like to say "This post is just a figment of my imagination & has nothing to do with my actual life"

I forgot to live...

When I came into this world I knew nothing of my own self.
I did not choose my gender or color or parents or name.
As I grew I began to know ME as an identity, to know my wishes, my dreams, my aims & so the journey began.


As a kid I was dying to score better marks & gave all my time to tuition teachers. I forgot, to play in the sun, to make castles of mud, to stroll on the outside lane, to…

As I grew up, I was dying to make something of my career. I devoted all my time to studies.
I forgot to attend my cousin’s birthday, to chat with my friends, to walk with the wind, to…

When I went to college, I was dying to get a job, yeah the best one. I forgot to celebrate every little joy present in my world, to freak with my friends, to spend time in the college canteen, to…

Today that I think I’ve made my existence, I am dying to get a bigger job, a better life, a beautiful future. I look back to find the remains of the days past by, all shallow. Where are those beautiful moments which I could have lived with my loved ones in the gone years.Now I realize that while I was dying to attain my goals I forgot so many things. I forgot to laugh, to love, to cry, to sing, to dance & so on. I just forgot to live. While I ran blindly to touch my tomorrow, I forgot to live my today.

Yeah life continually gives us more gifts then what we can fathom, it’s only our perception that matters. We should live our today & feel every moment of it. It doesn’t mean that one should stop planning for the future or one should stop setting their goals. It only means that we should learn to relish every moment. Today is our gift that’s why it’s called present.

And now that I’ve realized this folly of mine I’ve promised myself that I will
Live everyday, love more, laugh often.

10 reasons why a husband is better then a boyfriend!

Well this is kind of different compared to my last post but I can call it just the musing of an idle mind. Today is a holiday(yipee it's Dusshera today) & in midst of all the festive colors & joy I felt of writing such a post. Strange enough. Anyways!


Disclaimer: The ideas laid down are my own with no offense to anybody & they are simply not inspired from some greeting card or poster or whatever that nowadays do flash messages of these sorts.

A hubby over boyfriend(10 reasons)

1. They don’t crib when you turn up late for the cine show.
2. Your mother like them.
3. They like you in whichever way you dress & show no inclination of wanting you to wear ultra mini’s or skin hugging add-ons.
4. You can carry their credit cards as your own.
   
5. They don’t flaunt you in front of some macho hunk that passes them by in the shopping mall.
6. They find you cute when you wake up in the morning with all makeup undone.
7. They always let you win the argument.
8. They send you flowers even if you complain of their not so toned look & that they need a daily workout at the gym.
9. They love you even when you lie ill at bed & forget to give the good night kiss.
10. Last but not the least husbands are better then boyfriends because they keep their promise to love you, protect you & make your world beautiful forever.
    

Friends 4ever

Life is a pendulum between a smile & a tear. Full of love, believe & fear.
It becomes a blessing & a gift, when there are people like you in it.
You are one of those special few, like the clear drops of dew.
Even time will fail to change, my respectful fondness for you.
You bring me joy & reasons to smile
May this friendship be as long as river Nile.

So dear you are that gift to me. People often say that a man’s age is counted by the friends he keep. But I have a different perspective. I don’t make friends easily. For me friendship is a serious, honest, & emotional affair. Therefore I don’t make but rather choose friends.
And here is this note that comes your way to say-
“Thanks Neha for being a friend to me”

You have been a guide when I lost my way, a sister when I lost my calm, a support when I needed it the most, a hope when I spiraled into confusion, a peer when we shared every laugh, to sum up in my words, you have been a true friend. Your sweet smile, your caring hand, your measured advice, your calculated decisions, your happy spirit, your wise nature, your attractive charm, your devoted efforts, it all makes you special in your own way.

There’s fragrance of joy that we spread when we are together. Our childish laugh, our silly talks, those poor jokes, that shopping spree, the not so good freak outs, our photo sessions, rocking DJ nights & naughty arguments…endless list. It’s all so memorable. And no matter wherever we go in the future your imprints will always be in my heart.
Cheers!
