LIFE….IT IS KIND OF BITTER –SWEET….!!!


Simply sipping my coffee by the window…looking at the various things happening out there, like the women bargaining with the sabziwaala & not ready to let go off her 5 Rupees, the beggar just sitting out in the hot sun in his own world expecting someone to show some mercy while people just passing by him…some staring with dirty looks…some showing genuine sympathy...the child crying for the toy he saw in the last shop he visited…kids shouting their guts out as soon as they heard the school bell....the people by the paan shop…smoking n chewing…some out of habit…some out of frustration….those cheesy couples walking hand in hand…those boyfriends walking behind their gals apologizing…(story of every guy….lol..)..those high society men n women walking out of their multimillion dollar homes…that middle class father passing by on his scooter hoping that he could too provide the same to his family some day….those young confident looking guys and girls knowing that they are so broke inside and still managing to put a fake smile on their faces …and all the  hustle n bustle of the city…put me to thinking….WHAT LIFE IS ACTUALLY..???...

Well that’s a very difficult question…isn’t it..??...people have been looking for an answer to this question since centuries…no wonder all the scientists and historians look psychos and lunatics…( forgot the various pics you saw in your science and history labs..???..)…anyways, if you are looking for a scientific answer…don’t read this article anymore…duh…I ain’t no SCIENCE GEEK… I’ll be sharing only what my perception is…( although my parents keep telling me- “beta abhi aapne duniya dekhi kaha he” )….so ignoring my parents for a while I’ll just assume that I have some amount of experience….

“LIFE” is a boundless concept…the more you try to figure it out…the more you get confused…I bet all my YOUNG guys n gals would agree…coz we are the most frequent hand raisers to this question….we always try to figure out why the hell life is behind kicking our ass off….as soon as we see the challenges and troubles in front of us we know “ Damn,we are screwed”….those hundreds of break-ups we see everyday and think…”man, life is a BITCH”….and we end up getting frustrated and ultimately exhaust ourselves…
Um sure….each one of us would have looked up in the sky and talked like a retard asking god “ WHY YOU NO LEAVE ME ALONE..???..lol…

But…what bums me out the most is why don’t we see the other way round…why do we always try to find faults; rather we should invest our time and energy in looking at the brighter side…there is much more to life then just a STRUGGLE….!!!

I believe life is KIND OF BITTER-SWEET…
I agree that it throws tantrums at us…but then it also gives us the those beautiful memories that we cherish….the freaky, crazy friends we make, the disturbed looking professors , those special/stupid strangers, the guy/girl who just makes us skip a heartbeat, those dumbass people who frustrates the hell out of us and still have a special place in our hearts, those peaceful moments when you just sit behind your friend and enjoy the warm breeze flowing through your hair while your friend tries to cut his way through the traffic and dodging the thullas/mamus on the signals, those pleasant family trips, the mother/father hood we experience when we carry our new born baby for the first time..etc etc…the list is infinite….

Aren’t they all worth cherishing….aren’t they a reason enough to enjoy life rather than crying over it….all those who are trying to be strong and fighting back their tears…I absolutely understand your situation….trust me…I have been there…but what I learnt is….becoming weak is not an option for us, rather  be bold and strong and have guts to face your problems…instead of the dark, try to move towards the light….follow a simple  mantra in your life “SMILE THROUGH ALL THE ADVERSITIES” and BANG…you will hit the treasure…you will never be sad again….try to find those small-small reasons that makes you happy, whenever you feel low, cry your heart out, but then remember, once you are done never look back…

Enjoy life till it lets you….don’t keep any regrets….do anything and everything you want to, before you die….even if its jumping off the cliff or diving deep into the sea…JUST DO IT….!!!
A beautiful line that inspires me and gives me the much needed push :–

“Aaj…..aaj ek haseen aur baant loon… Aaj ek dua aur maang loon….Aaj ek aansoo aur pee loon…. Aaj ek zindagi aur jee loon... Aaj ek sapna aur dekh loon…. Aaj….kyuki  kya pata,  KAL HO NAA HO…!”
