Imprints


And she sighs a heavy breath, 
Hands trembling, her world shattered to ruins, bleeding body, aching soul,  there she was lying helpless, not even bothered to ask for help, all by herself, given up on life, existence , reality.

What happened to her? Who did this to her ?
He saw her from a distant corner. she looks at him, dust and blood in her eyes making it hazy for her to see him, but she knows, he is looking at her, she struggles to breathe and suddenly, its is all gone, there is peace, silence, no more pain. 
she closes her eyes , smiles, and says, "mine is one of the million deaths".

He keeps staring at her divine blood, and finally cries out loud, its over, its over, its over.

It was few years ago when he saw her, one in a million smile.
He was passing by his regular hangout parlor, when she called him, "hey you , yes you, you smiled at me"
Yes i did, you just made me smile, you look like the sunshine we all need.
Oh , if that's the case, i hope u spread the sunshine of joy everywhere, keep smiling. 
He turns and leaves, looks back and she is still smiling.

He gets back home, finds his sister in tears, 
Hey baby doll, whats up today,who took your smile away ? 
They did, mumma did, papa did.
Why do you say that  doll?
They asked me to get married.
Isn't that what you should, you are of age now ? don't you need someone to hold you, love you for the rest of your life ?
Brother, Do i need someone to love me ? No I Don't. I love myself, I love you all and you all love me back, Isn't that enough ?
Haha, my baby doll, you talk of innocence, Its a cruel world out there, you are a woman, you will need someone to protect you, someone to fulfill your dreams, support you.
But, But brother, I can do it on my own, Brother please, stop them,
He leaves, looks at her , smiles and says, baby doll, you will understand its for your good, all in time.

He is tired from all days work, gets back to his room, sees his wife sleeping peacefully.
Wakes her up, lovingly and says, my love. I am back home, what have you cooked for me.
Nothing, she says. I feel i just want to be myself today, read , watch my favorite show. 
Haha, ofcourse love, but you can do that after you feed me ? can't you do this for me after all the hard work i do all day long to keep you happy and bring all the luxuries for you back home ?
But, But i just want one day off, by myself, please.
Sure love, you have all day , everyday to yourself, just a bit of attention when im back home, isn't it your responsibility ?
she sighs, true, i'll get you food right away.
thanks my love, that's like my sweetheart.

He hears jumping feet in the next room and wakes up from his afternoon nap, goes to the other room and sees his daughter jumping and dancing.
Child why are you jumping, I am so happy to see you smiling, whats the good news ?
Dad, he says he loves me, I have always loved him. I think he is the one, my forever.
Haha, you are naive my child, you are too young to understand true love. He is not right for you.
But dad, you don't know him, he is the one for me, if you meet him you will know that too.
I am your father child, I know whats the best for you, I have more life experience, I will find you a prince charming, don't you worry child.
But dad, How can i fall in love with someone you find for me, isn't this more simple to be with someone i already love ?
Child its about your life, we cannot risk it.
But Dad, that's what I have been saying all day long that its my life and we should not risk it.
Enough child, go to bed, get some rest, we need to go meet my friends son tomorrow, they have been waiting for us.
But dad, what about the guy I love , if he is not good for me, who is he good for then ? 
Child, its his destiny now, leave it to his fate.
But dad, what if we were destined to be ? 
If it was destined, I would know, I am your father, Have i ever done anything which is not in your favor ?
That's true dad, you have loved me unconditionally, i think you are right, Ill be ready in the morning to go with you
I am glad child, sleep now, he kisses her forehead and leaves.

He was on his way back to meet his friends when his mother stops him, Son, can you get me some playing marbles when you come back home ?
Playing marbles, why mother, why do you need them ?
I just need them, do i have to tell you why,  to get them ?
I am just curious mother, why would you need playing marbles ?
Well they are playing marbles, if a child asked for them to you, wouldn't you know why he needs them ?
Well if its a child i would know that he wants to play with it.
Exactly my point son, I need them to play with them, its been quite a while since i did that.
What ? you want to play with the marbles, haha, mother you make no sense to me sometimes.
But why son ?
You should sit and read about god at this age mother, to fulfill your life purpose.
But i thought you were my life purpose, you are my life, haven't i justified my life enough already ?
Well i got no time for this mom, but i love you, i'll get you some beautiful jewelry when i come back, may be that would be of more worth at this age.
Mothers prays for him and shuts the door.

He has been a wonderful son, husband and a father. 
He wished best for his family.
But then why did he cut theirs wings off ? Was he afraid that their independent flight might bruise them? 

Years went by, he made decisions which he thought were best for them.
and one fine day,

He saw her again, 
Bruised, bleeding and trembling with pain.
He kept staring at her from a distant corner.
She was dead, and someone who passed by told him, 
"Poor woman, her parents got her married to a guy and he found out that she does not love him and loves someone else, so he beat her to death and left her crying, and the man you see sitting beside her is the guy who she loved all her life".

He breaks into tears all of a sudden, fear runs through his bones.
She looks at him from a distant, sand and blood in her eyes, its all hazy,but she knows its him, and she smiles at him.
Reality strikes, its the same woman who smiles just like the sunshine.
She is gone, its over. 

And she yells at him, "mine is one of the million deaths"
and now he knows why she said that, she speaks for all the women who have died, because all their life, men like him, made decisions for them. 
They brought them unnatural death.

Well, she is dead now.
But we still have a chance, why can't we let our women think for themselves, decide for themselves, why cant we be more confident about them ? 
She is beautiful, she might look fragile, but she is a lot more than that.
She is fully equipped by nature to protect herself and to know what is best for her, lets trust her and if she falls, "My Man" you pick her up and put her back to the field and let her fight her own battles.

Ours is a majestic world. Lets do our own part here and leave behind out own little imprints for the world to remember us.

I hope someday, when I am gone, you will still see me, find me in all that i will leave behind and know me for who i was, and not what they wanted me to be.

Midnight Magic

They say you might end up with the best or the worst stories of your life after midnight.

It was past midnight .

He laughed....laughed way too hard.
He was stressed since morning. A thesis was due tomorrow. But he was distracted.
And she was the reason for this sudden distraction.

He could not help but leave his papers aside. He looked into her Facebook account.
This time he laughed harder. He thought her weird and crazy pictures were adorable. He texted her with more emoticons then usual.
She thought he was hot. He had a great sense of humour which made him just more irresistible .

They talked through the night. He realized he had a thesis submission. But how cold he not talk to her, he was enticed.

He wrote," you are proving to be my lucky charm, I aced my thesis "
She perked up, not because he aced, but because he texted.

She asked, so young man, " who are you, i understand you like what i write but that's not enough to know you."
He smiled and said, " well, nothing too fancy, just a regular guy who is tying to be happy with everything that life throws at him "

She smiled with her heart

It was late at night when she went drinking with her friends and came back home sloshed.
He waited for her. She typed some drunken texts.
He called back hoping to talk to her for the first time. She picked up.
She laughed and she talked. He adored her, every bit of her. He was concerned but could not ignore her innocence.
She was drunk enough to talk about everything,from man boobs to the walking ceiling. It could have been her walk of shame in the morning.

And the days turned into more midnight's. It was madness. They didn't know each other, then why were they so caught up into each other. Well you might say it was attraction and it could have been.

Few days into the madness and he decided to see her. He asked her out.
She should have been happy. But she got scared. What was it about him that freaked her out ?
She told him, " I am sorry but i can't see you",  and left him muddled.

He thought it would be intruding her privacy if he pushed her about it. But he was a restless man, he did it anyway and asked her, " Why, why would you not go out with me ? Am I too ugly for you ?
She could not hold her smile back and said, " I fear the unknown. I don't know what this is, and I am protective about myself."
He paused, took a heavy breath and said, " well, you have already left me vulnerable to a whole new reality of my life, and I am not scared of it. I want to take the dive, and enjoy the downfall "
She was speechless, she knew he had caught her by her weak nerves and said, " yes i will go out with you."
He couldn't have been more happy and he danced his happy feet off while his friends looked at him in awe.

She had fantasized about a perfect date long before she understood the concept of true love. He took her to the most fancy restaurant by the lakeside and moonlight. She was dripping innocence on him. They were lost into each other. His presence was her only existence. It was divine. He carried her on his back and took her to the beach where moonlight played with the shores.It did not feel like the first time.They were weirdly very comfortable in each others company. They danced with the moon and the cold water washed their feet. She built a castle, sand castle for him, and he painted the castle town red. Was it supposed to be like this on the first date ? Were they not supposed to be cautious, more alert. But they were not. His arms felt like the safest escape. She left him vulnerable to new possibilities of love. 

They were mesmerized by this new world. They had experienced love before, they had been hurt before, they were too scared to take the pain, then why did this feel different. Were they blinded by the disguise of being in,love, or were they enticed by the erotica ? 

Time was playing its part, they were unaware of the impending storm. 
The  midnight turned into dooms light.

He said he was caught up in a hateful notion of love.He said he had priorities. She was shattered. She dint ask for this, she looked at life with a different perception now. A perception which was broken by this hateful notion of love. She had devoted herself into his divine arms, arms which were getting weaker. He was pulling himself back into an isolated world. He worked religiously. People around him were exhausted by his resistance. She longed for the midnight magic to bring him back to her, but cried her nights to sleep. The days turned into unanswered calls and messages. She tried to put the pieces together, pieces which were broken and lost. She lost the warmth of his arms, his words, his aura was vanishing. They were drifting apart.

Did he ever loved her ? Yes he did. Was he scared to lose her ? Yes he was. 
Then why were the two love struck's falling apart ?
He tried to be her hero but he was too caught up in his own material existence. He could not resist his tempting larger than life dreams. He saw this love as a threat either to his enormous self discipline or to his work and as a result he did not allow anyone to get too close to him. He was blinded by his surroundings. The more she tried to fit in his shoe, the tighter they became. She was losing the grip. He said let it go, let it flow. She didn't fit in, while he walked out of her life every single day until the day they went back to being strangers. 

She tried, to ignore the dreamy night. She wanted to drift back into her shell, her broken shell. 
But midnight rendered its magic, their love still fights against every dooms day.
They were night and day to each other. He rose to his  majestic material world while she set herself in the calmth of the divine moon. 


Midnight comes and casts her spell.

"The bed's getting cold and you're not here,
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants"

Wings of Fire

A great man left us all today to embark on his new journey.
This day has shocked an entire nation and a million hearts cried for his soul.

I have had a crazy week. A 14 hour shift for a week had drenched all the energy out from my body, and I was trying to catch up with some sleep. The news had put my mind to never ending thoughts. A man that my father idolized had left the world behind and my dream of meeting him once in a lifetime had been shattered. The social media was swamped with the news and people were seen praying for his soul.

Why did I decide to pen this article today...
because,
He inspired me enough to sacrifice my sleep. He inspired me to go work towards my dreams. He inspired me to speak of honesty before I lied on hopes to someone. He inspired me to take care of a child and lead him to build a great nation. He preached humanity as the highest order and simplicity as the mantra to lead a true life. His presence was enough to create a sense of responsibility in the people around him. He defined punctuality and valued time for he knew that there is only enough time that we have got to full fill the purpose of our lives. He had a positive attitude towards bringing a true change. A revolution in the political system which would help the nation grow in the right direction. He believed that the youth of the nation is the true building block and creating a vision in them would breathe a fire to bring about the change that he dreamt of. He wanted to be remembered as a great teacher and his life has been nothing but a source of true knowledge. His fundamentals were simple and attracted a spark that ignited a million minds. He lived his life with integrity and ethics. He was a true leader and his followers are devoted.

Today I write this not for our loss but to try and keep the flame burning.
I hope we don't forget the cause that he lived for and make his dream of a better tomorrow come true.

He said that do not declare a public holiday on my loss but work an extra day if you can.

My father once told me that he is the greatest men he knew.

With all due respect,
Rest in Peace, Sir APJ Abdul Kalam  !

One Night Stand




And then she met him.

He came towards her through the crowd. He was looking straight into her eyes. She was silent. She felt her heart beat slip, but she chose to sink it in. She chose to ignore that strong voice asking for her name. She knew that this was just another impending disaster. She was still gathering her courage. Men in her life knew that she was a walking landmine. She had exploded real bad in the past and she could yet again, anytime soon. But this man, in front of her had something about him which made her go weak in her knees. She put on her mask. She prepared her disguise and said, “Katrina, I’m Katrina”. He smiled at her and said “of course you are, you have blown my mind away and I’m sure that you will take away this little heart and soul of mine soon too. You are my sweet disaster.” She was charmed. This guy knew how to play around with words. She had to keep her mind strong. She could not let anyone hurt her again. She politely but with a strong voice asked him, “what is it that you are looking for.”  He said “I have found everything that I’m looking for but I don’t know that what I was looking for wants to be with me or not”. She trembled, she knew it was coming towards her, fast and furious. She said “I have nothing to give you. I’m sorry.” He said, “Then let me give you something, my extended friendship.” She was losing her mind, he was attractive. She controlled herself and said, “I don’t talk to strangers, I have enough friends, and yourself, sir, don’t look lonely so I’m sure you will excuse me for not accepting your friendship. I have to go now.” She was going to walk past him when he grabbed her hand inappropriately and said, “No offense but I’m not a creep. I like you, the moment I saw you, I knew I can’t miss out on her, I need to try. If you think I’m crossing my line, let me know and this will be the last time I talk to you. I had to stop you else you wouldn’t listen to me”, and then he gently left her hand. She was in a shock and a sweet surprise. She saw that honesty in his eyes. That sudden attraction for him clouded her mind and she said “I live 15 minutes from here.” He couldn’t hold in his happiness, after all he had been watching her for weeks. He said “Give me the pleasure to drop you home, and those 15 precious minutes of your life.” She nodded and said “be here at 7pm.” He smiled at her and left. She wanted to forget about it all and not be there at the decided time, but she gave out on emotions again. Yes, once again. The same emotions which had let her down numerous times in her life, but she was addicted and would keep going back to those same emotions. The time seemed to have taken a break. She waited eagerly. He was getting ready. He put on his best shirt, a cologne that would make women throw themselves at him. He had intentions, she was unaware of.

The clock struck its 7. He came. It was quieter this time. People had left to go back to their nests. Though the surrounding was peaceful there was an explosion of emotions inside her. She poised herself and looked at him with her striking smile, and said “here is my address, let’s get your GPS to guide us home”. He lost a little confidence when she got straight to the point. But he still wanted to play it cool and said, “aay aay captain, let’s get moving.” 

They got into his car, and his ride was Big. She was impressed and that’s what he wanted to do. She sat beside him and put her seatbelt on. It was then she realized she could breathe something irresistible. It was him and that cologne was working its way through. She adjusted herself and they drove. He looked at her and said, so tell me “How do you manage?” She looked confused and asked, “What do I manage” and he smiled and said “your beauty, your charm, your magic.”  He made her laugh, she was flattered. She was naïve. She had a soft heart, which could melt at the tiniest bit of emotions. He knew his trick well, and the game was on. She said with a blush, “Well, I think I was born with some perks and I just take good care of what I have”. He knew he was getting hard in her head. He got his game up and made sure those 15 minutes were enough to get her to take out for the next date. By the end of it, he succeeded. She did not get down the car. And he already had his second date by the end of the first. Impressive for a guy isn’t it, but he was that good. He had some real good experience and she was the result of a lot of bad experiences and boom, jackpot for him. He said “So what's next, do you like coffee?”  She was onto something else and said “I do, but I need some beer right now, how about that.”  He did not expect this. He was getting judgmental. His mind was playing tricks on him now. He was in a shock. But he needed to get back on track and said “sure, let me take you to a bar then and I can pick you up from the bar with my best possible pick up line. It would be fun to get this hot damsel from the bar”. She knew he was a big flirt, but she was up for the game, she knew he was hard to resist. She knew it was a catastrophe, but she didn't care enough. She was already broken and dint has much left to save. She took a deep dive in that fire. The wheels turned to their next destination and the ride was set to get dirty.

Wilderness, they reached. Yes, that was the name of the Bar, she had picked it up. She had her adventure bag packed and set to explore. They entered the bar, and the heads turned. He wasn’t lying when he said this hot damsel. She was one. She had those sparkling eyes, she smiled with her heart, her hair long enough to reach and kiss her waist and her bosom was perfectly synced with her striking red dress. It gave a hint of her bosom, but still covered most of it. It was like teasing people for the things they can’t get. She knew she had gotten into his head too. They chose to sit in a corner. She needed a quiet place and he needed his open field. He was prepared to play his next stroke. He pulled the chair for her and they settled in. Food and beer was on the table, and candle lit in just the right amount. It was getting warm and cozy. She feared this could lead to some terribly beautiful moment. He knew he was getting close to his objective, his object was already hypnotized by his charm. They rose their toast of the night and beer was poured more than water.  She knew it was hitting her and he knew he was in control of his senses. The beer wasn’t a hard core drink for him after all. They talked, they laughed. He made sure that she was enticed by his aura. He knew how to play his cards well. She was getting prettier with every smile she threw at him and she was very well aware it was working. The night was getting darker and the fire within them brighter. Wilderness indeed stood up to its name. He offered her to help her walk back to the car, but she said she was okay. He knew she had lost control, but he let her take the lead. She was pleased. Her womanhood wasn’t challenged this time. He made sure he walked right behind her. She juggled her way to the car tripping million times before they reached but she said she was okay and he made sure that she was. He opened the door and buckled her seat up. He got ready to drive when she said stop. He did not. He kept driving until they reached a quieter place. He knew there was going to be drama, she was drunk after all. She was singing, she let the windows blow in the cold air, she cared less about anything beyond him and her. She was in the moment and he was losing his. She looked straight into his eyes, they looked sad. But it seemed like she knew how to control what they wanted to speak. He looked back at her. He couldn’t resist her lips, they were pink and soft. May be it was her lipstick. He leaned forward to kiss her. She was shivering, not because she was afraid, but because the window was open and the cold air made it hard for her to stay warm anymore. He didn't realize that and moved back, he thought he was forcing something that she dint want. She knew it was time to drop her disguise and that’s what she did. She got up from her seat and settled in his lap. It was a tight place for two people. The steering wheel had no space to steer anymore, his personal belongings were little uncomfortable with her sitting on him. He couldn’t say it though, because he wanted her to take control. She leaned towards him, her bosom pressing tight against his well-built chest. She grabbed his face in her palms gently, pulled him closer and kissed. They lip locked as if they wanted to lose the key to this lock. It was passionate and wild. The wild fire had spread throughout their bodies by now. She could feel his sweat and he could hear her throbbing heartbeat. He put one of his hands on her waist and hold her tight while the other gradually moved to a more sensual part of her body. She felt that tight grab and kissed him harder. He was able to slip her dress from the shoulders by now. She didn't realize before she was half naked. She dint mind. He carried her to the back seat. Things were going to take a turn. It was going to be a long and tiring night. He holds her tight in her arms and whispered in her ears, “I want you to remember this night, are you sure you are going to be in your senses for this?” She was high on her hormones by now and she said “I lost my Senses when I saw you for the first time”.  They both smiled at each other and they knew that nature had played its part. The resistance was gone. They were two bodies one soul that night. But what he dint know was his impending disaster and what she dint know was her unfortunate fate. She woke up before the first ray in the sky and decided to get back to her real world. She thought it was a one night stand for him and thus she left. He was woken up by the sun kissed morning. She was long gone. But what she dint know was that she had got this player down. He had lost this game to his heart. He was in love and she would never know, coz she left before he could say anything. She keeps her story in her heart about that One Night Stand because she knew he would too and someday when they meet on some cross roads, she would tell him that, “that one night stand was her love at first sight.”

P.A.S.S.I.O.N.A.T.E D.R.E.A.M.S...!!

"PASSIONATE DREAMS"

Have you ever had a Larger than life dream ?
A dream which gave you sleepless nights rather than a peaceful sleep? A dream which made your heart race faster than a Ferrari. A dream which if came true could make your soul cry out of happiness. A dream which was more addictive than any addiction.
A dream which ignited every single spark in your body...!!

Such dreams are rare. If you have one,don't let it go, nurture it. Those dreams will turn your world upside down. It will challenge you in the most difficult way possible. It will make you take the route you were once scared to walk on.Force you to make decisions which could break you down. It will show you how hard life can get on you.The moment when you would think you are almost there, it will welcome you with more new challenges.It will make you question your real friends, family,and the worse your own abilities. Don't even think about your comfort zone,because that went out of the window the moment you dared to dream.

What do you do when that happens ?

What you do is  you don't quit. you take the bullet. You "Challenge the Challenges" and get in the game.It will give you moments which will inspire you to bring the best and worse out of you.,but you don't stop and you don't look back,Just keep moving towards the unknown and "expect the unexpected".When you decided to work on your dream is when you gave the wind to fire it up. Be passionate about it. Love it.Feel it.Trust your instincts.Make mistakes, because it will only help you to make better strategies.And the most important aspect is to get your dreams out in open. Share it with other people, some will envy you not because you are a doing better job but just because you had the courage to stand up and fight for your dreams. Good thing about sharing your dream is that you will find people who will appreciate that passion in you. They will work with you to make it come true. They will show you the way when you feel lost.They will pull you up when you fall down.They will raise their voice to match your song. These people are your true friends,keep them safe.

I have such a dream., A dream larger than life.
I am not afraid to loose but my goal is to Win.
I am here to ask for your support and i am here to share my dream with you.
Keep me in your prayers and i am sure your prayers will do wonders for me...!!

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams" ~
Eleanor Roosevelt

A New Adventure Awaits..!!

Soon a New Year will begin....with new promises,challenges, experiences and learning...A new story to tell...but when i look at the flashback 2013...it was something i would never change...everything that i asked for...dint ask for happened...!! Here i am in a foreign land...Far Away from home...listening to some old country songs...and thinking...was it all worth it..? 

Sometimes we should be careful with what we ask for... 
I Wished for a place far way from home...but i dint know it would be so far that it would be difficult to come back home when the sun sets down..I asked for my freedom...but now i am so free that if i fell...it would be my sole responsibility... I asked for real people around me and ended up with just a bunch of people whom i can call friends...I asked for my dreams but in turn lost my love...I asked for strength to fight back and ended up with more bruises to deal with...I asked for more beautiful memories...but ended up with real Black outs..(Not to ignore the wheelchair and the stretcher- in reference to the unforgettable moment of my life which i will never remember)...Sometimes its scary...sometimes its really exhilarating...!! 

It is after all a vicious Game..."The Wishing Game.."
Everyone would have made a wish during Christmas...i did too...but then i realized that the whole wishing game was really a challenge...a game in which you have to play your cards really wisely...its a good thing if your wish comes true...but look out for the consequences...they say with "Great Power comes Great Responsibility" may be that would be a good example of wishing wisely...

One good thing about my life is that i don't keep any regrets...no matter what i wished for and what i received...either way it was an experience or a learning...so yes it was all worth it...With the new Year just knocking on my door...I dare to Wish...and i Wish to make it all worth it again the next year..:)

"For last year's words belong to last year's language 
And next year's words await another voice".
- T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets

Go crazy...Have Fun...do things you never imagined you were capable of doing...
Eat a large Pizza all by yourself...Work towards the beautiful dream that you saw last night...go out and eat an ice cream during the freezing midnight....have an affair...go fall in love...go on a blind date..eat all the cheese and wine...learn how to dance...paint the walls of your room with your favorite color..start earning and saving for the trip you always wanted to go on...take as many pictures as you can (some can be embarrassing for you and some will embarrass others)...live every single moment and make your life a story worth telling...

After all the real beauty lies in the hidden treasures...GO EXPLORE...a New Adventure Awaits..!!

"THE FIRST FLIGHT"

"A new life....A new world.....A new beginning...A new end...."


CANADA

The feeling when you are taking the first flight of your life....and when the flight is gonna take you to the whole other side of the world...how do you feel...????

SCENE 1

ITS SCARY....ITS BEAUTIFUL.....ITS BREATH TAKING......ITS A WHOLE LOT OF FEELINGS THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE EXISTS.....yeah i experienced it all.....it was my first flight ever....i was nervous...dint know how things worked out on an airport...dint know how the good byes would be....dint know where i was going....a country i never imagined i would land up in....i always dreamed  about going to Europe, USA,Australia etc....but destiny wanted me to go to Canada....!!!

So here i was....my bags packed....in the car....mom n dad besides me....brother sitting in the front....i was all silent....they were all silent....no one knew how to react....i was going far....to a place we never imagined i would go....but  NOW i was about to catch the flight in next 3 hours....we reached the airport.....we dint know how things moved around on an airport...how exactly customs, security check, immigration check etc worked....so asa we got to the airport....i put my luggage on the trolley...my brother started teaching me how to move around with the trolley....we kept moving.....there i saw TERMINAL 2....my heart skipped a beat....my feet all confused whether to take a step ahead or to step back....yes i was nervous...!!!

The moment we reached the gate of Terminal 2....there was silence all again....my mom had tears in her eyes...i dint wanted to cry....but i did as well....there was a whole big speech that i had prepared for my parents but i ended up choking...couldn't say a word except for the goodbye....i kissed my mom...i hugged my dad and brother....i felt warm and protected....i was gonna loose those arms soon....dint feel like leaving....but i had to.... i turned around with my teary eyes...the security guy on the gate was feeling sad for me...he tried to console me and said that everything was gonna be fine....i wanted to believe him....and may be i did coz that was when i gathered the courage to enter the airport...!!

I went inside and asked few people what exactly was i supposed to do...they said get the boarding pass....the window was going to open in the next 1 hour....what was i supposed to do...i couldn't go back....i searched for the visitors glass...my parents were gonna be there till i left...but then it took me quite a while to figure out where it was...so i just decided to stand i  the Que for the boarding pass....!!

I started observing what people in the line were doing...coz i dint wanted to miss out on any of the processes....NEXT....i heard from the desk....whats your full name miss...i answered and the round began....they put my luggage in some sort of conveyor belt and it went away...i was scared...thinking where did my luggage go....he said i would get it in Canada....i had no option but to trust him...so i did...!!

Then i ran towards the visitors glass to see my parents....it was sound proof...i called them and we talked....how is it going my dad asked....i said i was fine....coz i dint wanted him to feel my nervousness...i bid them the final goodbye and moved towards the immigration check....my mom said we will b waiting here...till u catch your flight...if anything happens just come down...i was a bit relieved....!!

Immigration's makes you feel like a criminal....the guy was good but he interrogated me....i dint like it but managed to keep a smile on my face through out...i dint wanted him to feel if there was something wrong with me....finally after a round of questions the guy agreed to believe that i was no criminal n tap tap he stamped...wooshh...sucha a relief...!!

next step was to go towards the security check...i had to remove all the metal, wallet and etc from my bags...the lady was more than happy to check me put and woahh it made me feel creepy...though i went ahead collected my items and then had to go downstairs to catch my flight....!!

Asa i reached the ground floor....i saw a whole different world....felt like a fairyland.....so much stuff i could buy....for a moment i forgot everything....i started to explore....it was a Girls Dream Come True land....i saw people from different races....hot guys and girls....the place looked so exciting....but yet again what i ended up buying was a COKE...A DIET COKE....man i never drink diet coke....but i guess it was coz of all the mixed feelings that i had....i ended up having a diet coke....!!

I started calling all my friends....i wanted to say so much to them....i wanted to say il miss them...that i love them...and suddenly BINGO...you get the WiFi on the airport....TANGO and Viber were my best friends for the next 2 hours after that.....while talking to my friends i showed them all the hot guys and girls and we all did the bird watching together...yeah it was fun...!!

The clock kept ticking and i realized it was the time to board the  FIRST FLIGHT of my life....again all those mixed feelings came rushing down to my heart....my heart forgot how it worked...coz it was not beating properly....i thought i would look for an exit gate and me be go back....but my feet kept moving towards the boarding gate....i gave my tickets to the security and he led me to a bus...i was standing there with bunch of other people...my hands went cold...my senses got numb...all i could hear and feel was my heart beat...

After like 10 minutes , some security guy comes looking for me in the bus...i wondered that what have i done now...dammit this is my first flight...please don't take me to jail...lol....but then he said one of my luggage wasn't tagged so he just wanted to confirm few things with me....i responded quickly and went back to the pick up bus....wheels started turning and we headed towards the plane.....i always thought airplanes were MAGNIFICENTLY GIANT...but no...they are just too big...nothing like dinosaurs or something..haha....!!

I finally enter the plane...my first flight....the attendents were very warm....i felt like home....they guided me towards my seat and i followed. sitting to the left of  me was a giant black guy and to the right another indian boy....i felt uncomfortable...i asked for a change of seats to one of the attendants and he was kind enough to do that for me....slowly once everybody settled down....the pilot made the announcement....i started to listen to each and every word that he said....coz i thought i was gonna die and he was the only one who could save me...he told me to put on my seat belt and like a sincere kid i agreed to do that.....

"We are about to take off...kindly put on your seat belts"...."vimaan udaan bharney ki taiyaari me he.....kripya apni suraksha peti band lijiye" the tiny wheels of the plane started moving...i closed my eyes....told myself....now get ready...to face a whole different world....get ready to give a fight....flash back off all the good and bad times came in my head...!!!

Flight took off and i open my eyes to see the city rest below me....i was in clouds...and all i said was BRING IT ON....!!!!


"Aankhon me sapne liye...Ghar se hum chal to diye....Jane ye raahe ab le jaaengi kahaan"

“GUYS”….aren’t they sweet…!!!


Okay…so all those heart broken young ladies who would have said “BULLSHIT” as soon as they read the heading of my article….take a break…and just like me…give it a thought…

You all must be wondering who would waste time and write an article on this topic…well I would…because I believe that it was needed to be done…as many of my young girl friends have lost faith in LOVE n BOYS…so now tell me…isn’t it a reason enough…*WINKS*

Tired and exhausted, when I entered my room, I saw my friend crying on her pillow…and it was the old same story…her so called DOUCHE BAG boyfriend dumped her….a week or so passed by and she dint get over it…and all this was taking a toll on me…it was really sad to see her in that condition…that’s when this crazy thought struck me…ARE BOYS REALLY THAT BAD…???

Many girls would agree and ALL THE BOYS WONT…..lol situation….and it was my time to decide as to whose side should i support…and obviously I chose the latter…no offense girls…I owe you an explanation and that’s exactly why I am writing this article...

Most of my young guys n gals have experienced the so called LOVE in their lives atleast once…n as far as I am concerned…”BEEN THERE DONE THAT”….the feeling of NEW LOVE is beautiful n divine…isn’t it…pouring your heart out to someone special…all the late night chit chats…d feeling of possessiveness…all the romantic/crazy dates…those tears of joy n sorrow….everything just makes it perfect…you are happy…your guy/girl is happy…and it feels like you have found everything that you always wanted…but but but….waitttt……BREAK UP….yes that is when you realize that everything you did was worthless and you cry your eyes out till you exhaust and go to sleep….!!!

We stop thinking about all the good times that we spent together and to make things worse, our mind starts supporting all the worse case scenarios…we see evil in each and every next guy who throws a smile towards us…I am sure that everyone who has suffered a break up in their life would have used this line once in their life- “I will never fall in love again, it sucks..”…and those who haven’t…wait for it…

My question to all these people is…are u sure LOVE (guys) really sucks…???...think twice before you answer…because if your answer is YES then you need a reminder…you are just being biased because HE broke your heart…but tell me something…have you forgot what all HE DID for you..???...

Yes he was there when you needed a shoulder to CRY ON n talk about all the bad things that this world has bestowed upon you…remember that guy who used to carry all your shopping bags when you were busy surfing every single brand in the mall…yes I agree he checked out the lingerie showrooms while passing by it…but dint you check out that cute guy who caught your attention…and yes how can we forget that surprise romantic date that he took you to just to see a smile on your face…he was not interested in what your bitch girl friend did to you but still he listened to everything you got to say about her quietly…and at times, even gave suggestions as to how to tackle her….recall that HUG he gave you…his arms felt like the safest place on earth…and to be honest…it is the most safest place…when you know you are with your Mr.RIGHT…you will feel it…and yes girl he was their to cheer you up when you were sick and hold your hands to let you know that you will be fine soon….look at that old ROSE that you kept in your diary…who gave it to you…??? Remember how you felt when he did that for you..?? ( I know why you have this smile on your face right now)….and wait…that fight..when some random guy tried to harass you….yes your guy was there to protect you….n fine I agree that he ignored you for his FIFA n DOTA video games because he thought it was his ONLY battle ground to prove himself, but dint you ignore him for your favorite TV shows, shopping, parlor appointments, girls night/day out, etc..??..

I need not point out every single thing that your GUY did for you…because I just needed to remind you that he did some good things for you and gave you memories that you will cherish through out your life….things dint work out between you two and the blame is on him- “guys are EVIL”…if they were, you wouldn’t have experienced all those beautiful memories….they just get lost in their own space at times and end up hurting you in the ways they dint mean to…you will ask me…what about the guys who cheated on you with some other girl…but we too know the reality…we are not those angels from heaven..pure…because he cheated on you with some other girl that means that some other BITCH was involved too…but nobody would blame her…cause she has the power of TEARS and advantage of being a girl…and your guy…he will learn sooner or later that being a PLAYBOY is out of fashion…girls now a days respect those guys who stand up for their LADY….and if you are with someone who doesn’t gives a damn about what you did in your past or what you are doing in your present…- then here’s an ALERT for you…she too is just using you as a tool for her pleasure…so don’t get all happy about the hot chick who smiled back at you…she will be gone before you know it…!!!

So i would suggest, to all my girl friends out there, respect the man in your life and don’t try to find reasons to blame him for what he did and what he dint for you…try to find a common ground where both of you have your own space…guys are not that BAD afterall…they just need to be reminded what they actually are…telling them they are pathetic will just worsen the situation…

And yes guys…I took your side..wrote a whole article on you…but that doesn’t mean you keep smiling like morons….get up and take your lady to that beautiful date that she deserves…afterall she is the QUEEN of your only EMPIRE….:)

Don’t Hesitate…or REGRET…!!!


I was chatting with one of my friends, and he asked me- “what kinda guy you want in your life..??”…I smiled at the question. It wasn’t something new that someone had asked me….i came across this question a lot of time in my life…I answered the question too…but never sincerely….coz I myself dint know what kinda guy I wanted…above all I thought how would it even matter, I’m never gonna find such a guy…!!!

but what if I could..???

it was one crazy dream which woke me up at 4 in the morning….i sat on my bed looking outside the window…the view was beautiful, it was full moon…I started listening to my favorite track , as I couldn’t get back my sleep….and I don’t know how but this question popped up in my head…it kept on repeating itself….” Karishma, what kinda guy you want…??..” I dint wanted to answer that question coz no matter how much I tried I never found the correct answer…or may be coz I thought it wasn’t even important to find an answer to this question…it was lame I thought…!!!

But the night was different today…I argued myself…what if it was important…??...

I have been in love…passionately…the memories are bitter-sweet…I never wanted to let it go…but things dint work out the way I wanted them to…I was hurt, broke and depressed…I just couldn’t understand what happened…one moment we were happy and madly in love…and with a blink of an eye it was all over…after that, it never realy mattered what kinda guy I wanted…I was too afraid to fall in love again….or may be coz I was a coward….it takes a lot of courage to fall in love…opening up your heart to someone…giving them all you have…knowing that you can /will get hurt…history has it that all the great love stories were broken…( romeo-juliet, heer-ranjha, laila-majnu ) they could never be together…

But then I asked myself…for how long am I prepared to run away from it…??..i know…every one reading this would have asked themselves the same question…why am I so afraid to fall in love…why am I so afraid to tell myself that its time that I need that SOMEONE SPECIAL in my life again…

For many of us the real question would be- “ are we afraid of the rejection..???”…and all my ladies out there, they don’t speak their heart out coz we think “I’m a girl…I’m not supposed to go first…its against the rules…guy proposes and I respond…that’s how it works..” but for how long are you prepared to play the blind fold…are you ready to see the love of your life go away in front of your eyes…are you ready to accept the fact that you could have been with the guy/girl of your dreams if only you had Believed and had taken that leap of faith…

I am not ready to take that leap of faith yet…coz I need to ask myself first that what am I looking for…and it took me quite a while to figure out what kinda guy I wanted…

Starting from the obvious, ofcourse I want someone who will love me, care for me…make me smile when I’m low and support me through all my hardships…that was clichéd…I know…
Now what I really want is someone who will respect me for what I am…someone who is prepared to accept me inspite of all my flaws…coz I am not someone easy to tame…I’m a taurean afterall….*winks*…

I don’t want to be his queen…but I want to be the only lady love in his life…I don’t want him to shower me with expensive gifts …but I would want him to atleast gimme a rose everyday so that I know I’m loved…I don’t want him to keep me happy always…but I want that he should never be the reason behind my tears….i am not expecting him to be perfect…but I want him to be a man and take responsibility for the mistakes he made…I don’t want him to do everything that I say, but I want him to atleast full fill the promises that he made…i don’t want him to compliment me every now and then but I want him to be proud of me…I don’t want him to say he is lucky to have me but I want to know that I mean the whole world to him and that he wouldn’t dare loose me…I don’t want him to buy me diamonds all the time…but I want him to take me to those romantic dates which I deserve…I don’t want him to give a beautiful speech about me in public, but I want him to take my stand when someone is trying to give me hard time…I don’t expect him to be polite to me all the time but he should atleast have the decency to not yell at me in public and wait for the right time to tell me my mistakes…I don’t want him to tell me I am hot or sexy, but I want him to let me know that I’m the woman he always dreamt of….i don’t want him to give me all his 24hrs…but I want him to have the decency to not abandon me for his personal pleasures when he knows I would be lonely and waiting for him…I don’t want him to not make mistakes, but I want to know that he is genuinely sorry when he makes one…and the most important thing, I would want him to treat my parents as his own…i want him to love them and respect them…for they gave their most important treasure, their daughter to him..!!!

Too much to ask..???...well that’s what I would want in my guy…:)…and when I find someone like this…I’ll be ready to take my leap of faith…and I wouldn’t hesitate to tell him that he is all that I always wanted.

So, to all my readers, what kinda guy/girl do you want..??? and are you ready to take your leap of faith…!!!

And when you find the love of your life…don’t forget to communicate your feelings…coz..

“IF YOU HESITATE-YOU REGRET”…!!!

NO MEANS NO...!!!!


So here i am......once again...!!!

After such a long time...something very despairing caught my attention and made me take out some time from my busy and hectic schedule....i cant even start to express how sad it makes me to see such cases happening every now and then around us...

Yes...i am talking about the DELHI RAPE case....it left a great impact on me....i questioned myself that what if something like that would have happened to me...what would i have done...and the answers were agitating...Rape is the only crime in which the victim becomes the abused...!!

We talk about politics, our corrupt government, lack of literacy in the country, modernization, etc etc....but they remain JUST TALKS....we are so depended on our government to take action but what will such a government answer who can keep a TERRORIST in jail for 4 years...??? what will such a government answer who beats d hell out of innocent youngsters who go on strikes just to get their voices heard and demand JUSTICE....who says women should not wear provocative dresses rather then encouraging men to treat them with respect....who says eating Chinese food is the reason behind the rape cases( after hearing this statement i lost all my patience )....

We are told not to wear provocative dresses....not to go out late nights, not to work in places with less female population ( coz the chances of getting raped increases), not to laugh out loud coz that will make you look bold and give a green signal to the lunatics creeping on you.....

But i ask...why US...?? why the victims are suggested what not to do instead of the desperadoes roaming out there in open....

I don't know if my sympathies would make the poor girl feel any better....only thing that could satisfy her raging pain would be to grant her the authority to take a decision as to what punishment she wants to give to these desperate animals who ruined her life....

soon after i posted on my Facebook wall that WE NEED REAL LAWS....people started sending me suggestions as to what can be done to stop such heinies crimes....and i wasn't surprised to hear what they had to say....

some said they should be hanged till death..
or we should bring in d SAUDI LAWS in our country- " u steal, we cut your hand, u rape we cut your prick, you lie we cut your tongue and so on.."...

I don't know if our democratic government is still ready to inforce such laws in our country...but i request...whatever they decide to do...atleast bring justice to the victims of such crimes.....they have gone through something which changed their life forever...some victims may come out of the trauma someday but some people will just breathe it out.....

" IF THERE IS A TIME WHEN YOUR WALLS COULD GUARD US....THEN LET THAT TIME BE NOW"..

NO i am not some revolutionary, NGO worker, spokes person of some group, or a social activist....i am just the "AAM JANTA" ......who wants to live in peace...who wants to reach home safely without having to fear about getting raped....who wants to achieve her dreams someday and make her family and friends proud....who wants this world to be a better place to live in....!!!

P.S- " DON'T TELL YOUR DAUGHTER NOT TO GO OUT, TELL YOUR SON TO BEHAVE PROPERLY COZ WE ARE NOT AN OBJECT FOR HIS ENTERTAINMENT".....!!!

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…!”

LOVE @ FIRST SIGHT....!!!


This random question popped out in my mind a few days back…I updated my Facebook status regarding d same…. {LOVE @ FIRST SIGHT….what is it…???}… Many people shared their views regarding the same….some said it never works….some said it sucks….some said one should stay away from it because its fatal….but nobody could explain the sheer beauty of love @ first sight….

It can happen to anybody….n not necessarily with a person….but may be a place, poem, song, photograph, or any random stuff u want to include….I dint realize the beauty of this divine concept of “LOVE @ FIRST SIGHT” until it happened to me….ohhh…trust me…the feeling is blissful….I thought I was under some sort of trance…it took me quite a while to realize what was happening to me…I was suffering through the clichéd disease of “LOVERIA “…..

So now my next question was…”WHAT is the PROBABILITY of success or failure of the above syndrome…”.???... and to that my friend beautifully answered- “ well it depends on the number of EYES involved”…well I couldn’t resist but laugh…as he was right…the more the number of EYES the lesser is your chance to succeed in your quest to get your LOVE @ FIRST SIGHT….
So what is it that you can do…???..don’t worry friends (those who have suffered/suffering) I absolutely understand your situation… many of my girl /guy friends keep asking me, “YAAR MUJHE PYAAR HO GAYA, ME KYA KARU”…lol…honestly speaking I never had an answer to that HAUNTING question as I am no LOVE GURU….but as time passed and with lil experience that I have, now I am atleast able to give few suggestions….

First of all find out if your craziness is temporary or permanent…if temporary then there’s nothing you should do…it will take care of itself…but if permanent…then my friend you need help…if you are sure…that you can’t go a day without looking/talking to that person then I will say….TAKE THE LEAP….

Try to know that person…take interest in his/her activities…try to get to know him/her better…see if he /she is actually what you wanted in your life…coz we all know…”mirages” are a part of life n one is bound to get caught in its illusion if not alert….slowly increase the content of your conversation…if he/she is equally interested, they too will respond with the same amplitude…and if they don’t…you know its time for you to “BACK OFF”….

Now…if the amplitude too is the same then it’s time to find out if both the parties are looking forward to the “SAME DEAL”….coz I bet you guys, you never want to fall into “ONE SIDED” crap…coz it ultimately hurts…and hurts real bad…if there is no common interest then u know it…take a U-TURN….but if YES then slowly start to convey your feelings…coz if you don’t…then you’ll alwaz have the REGRET that you DINT TRY….so why to take that burden…instead why not start acting strong and bold and just let your feelings flow…and after sometime…you will reach your awaited paradise….:)

Ya…I would not deny that LOVE @ FIRST SIGHT is a very tricky concept….but that’s the fun part right..???...the uneasiness, the sleeplessness, those mysterious smiles on your face, that commitment with which you put all your efforts to make that person yours, everything…isn’t it all ..”JUST WORTH IT..”.

After all somebody beautifully quoted-  "…itni shiddat se maine tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki koshish ki hai....kehte hai agar kisi cheez ko sachche dil se chaaho toh poori kaynath tumhein usse milane ki koshish mein lag jaati hai…”

Or in words of Poulo Coelho – “…When you really want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it…”…!!!
