AWAKENING!!!


Sometime someday there will come a time,
When the land will be red instead of brown....
The sky will be full of grey with fumes,
No smile, no laughs; only cries and hues...
People without limbs, skin, eyes and fingers.

Few people would still be happy,
Still want some of these more
More extortion, more death
More sufferings and more cries...

Dew drops on grass turned red
Water bodies turned red
People drinking red water...

Suddenly cried the inner soul of the earth
Is this why I created this world?
Is this why I made all these people?
Is this why I gave them beautiful Nature?

God got furious and said :
If you want this then let it be like that....
Then followed a series of quakes,
Flood, cyclones and hurricanes...
Engulfing the people all around the world

No cries, no hues, no fright and no fight
Again the world became too beautiful
Lovely rainbows, snowy mountains
Sparkling dew drops and snowfalls all around
But no one to enjoy all that.......

Suddenly with that thought I found myself awake
Is this what the life we want to make?
Having lot of fears but smiling fake,
Though our eyes are open but when we all be awake?

I made a promise to me on that day
From now whoever comes on my way,
I'll try to tell them that the life is wonderful
Live and let live and be cheerful

Whatever others are doing
Just forgive and keep smiling
Nobody knows what will happen tomorrow
But I'll always try to be happy and make others too...


There might be few who loves to give sorrows to others
But try to take their sorrows and spread love....
Once you starts practicing it,
You will feel from the bottom of your heart;
Life is a wonderful gift presented to us by God
And the world is indeed a beautiful place to live in....

Love for my Country!!!

15th August, 2010 – It was a Sunday.
“Iss baar toh ek chutti bekaar ho gayi”, that's what i heard people saying all around.
Is this what the relevance of Independence day in today's fast moving scenario?

I asked this question and people started pounding on me with their arguments. This is not a perfect country and there is no future in here.
I suddenly remembered the scene from the movie 'Rang De Basanti', where they all argue on a similar point and Madhavan says, 'no country is perfect, you have to work hard in making it so...........
Though I did'nt said anything at that point of time but I started to wonder about it.

I don't feel that I am too much of a patriot. I don't think I care much about what the government is doing. I am not a person who is willing to join the army or politics. But still what is the difference in my thinking that I got offended by all their comments.

Finally I got my answer. It was my mere love for my country. You might ask that what is so special about my country, for which I love it? Though there are many reasons to site the greatness of my motherland, but instead I would say :
Love has no reason. When asked "Why?" the answer is "I don't know. I just do." Because love does not come from the mind to know but from the heart to feel.
We could love someone beyond all their imperfections, at that time we never ask any reasons. We just accept them the way they are. That is what Love is all about. Isn't it??
Whenever we say 'Jai Hind' or 'Vande Mataram', a self esteemed smile brightens our face.
Isn't it??

One day I was getting late for my work. Just a couple of steps away from the punching machine, the kids in a nearby school started singing our National Anthem in their assembly. I stood still instantly, and to see that there were others too who did this gesture was really heart warming.
That made me realise that we all Love and Respect 'INDIA', but due to our fast paced life, we tend to forget it.

Do we really need incidents like India winning a match or A.R. Rehman receiving an oscar, to make us realise it??

We all live a similar life. But can't we give a fraction of a second to feel the Pride of being an Indian??Think about it!!!
