Hi…this is that time of my life(nothing new…happens with just about everyone who comes to this earth!) where I move from one world to a another…..time when I’m about to leave the hallowed halls of college and move on to what I was actually here for in the first place….yeah..no prizes for guessing this….work…career… and this is where you experience the difference….and look back on all those nights you’d stayed up studying for exams..and hoped (lesser mortals like me did…yes!!!) that the the exam room will blow up…or the papers would catch fire…or there’ll be an earthquake…..and ..most simply put..the exam will get cancelled! And now you wish you these days weren’t getting over so soon…and maybe you could spend a little more time faffing with friends…and those awesome teachers (only some of them…mind you...I believe there’s a kans mama like sir….or a bindu like ma’am everywhere!) who actually treated you like kids…..a little more time in the canteen…..guffawing about the new “beings” in college….a little more fun in the fests….a little walk with a dear friend into those rarely visited places(yeah…my college has lots of tracks and paths….u can really explore)…..talking about sweet nothings and not-so-sweet things……just a little more of so many things you know you’ll probably never find time for later in life…yes…its not going to be the same….its going to be different….a lot more different…but then, different ain’t always a bad thing……everyday is a new time in life…holding out new beginnings….new possibilities…new achievements….and you just have to go on….not look back so much perhaps….but carry these beautiful memories, nevertheless, into those new days….and maybe you’ll have the good old days back…momentarily…but back anyways….and maybe they’ll bring a smile on that face…and moisten those eyes as well……..what say,huh????

Phool, hava, khushboo pavan mein;
Rishte aur naate aangan mein,
Sab chalte hain…..sang chalte hain
Phir kuch saathi kho jaate hain
Gum kahin who ho jaate hain
Jeevan phir bhi chalta hai
Thoda hai…thode ki zaroorat hai…
Zindagi, phir bhi yahan..khoobsurat hai!

Rainy days!!!!

So...where was i?? yeah.....those rainy day one - liners...and then you have the people trickling in...."My!! what a weather!!!" or "the rain water came up to my knees".......the more dramatic ones like "You know what????i fell into a manhole"......"puray engine mein paani ghus gaya tha"......desperate ones ( i mean...the more committed ones) "no taxis coming this way........the one that did charged me double"...bla bla bla............I know there's nothing new in this blog yet....probably happens every time there's a shower.......and probably would happen in all the years that I'll stay alive for maybe........but the thing that actually made me write about this was because it just occurred to me that I'd probably hadn't heard anyone saying anything nice about the weather today......or the other rainy days, for that matter.....true.....it is a bother to have the rain when you are going out somewhere.....and it is a ...

Random Musings....

Morning Mountains...... Snow-covered mountains,ancient monuments,a north wind that nods to us,a thought that flows,images imbued with hymns of history,words on signs with ideals of geometry..... Evening Sun..... Day is life,As the roars of lions echo,And the galloping of the antelope fade.Night is death,As the laughs of the hyena haunt you,And the bush is filled with the sounds of terrorized creatures.But between the beauty all is quiet,As the sun disappears,And the land lights up in the most spectacular display,the Sunset.... Trees at Twilight..... I wonder a lot about those trees,Why do they bear flowers, fruits & seeds?And shrivel when their foliage freeze;Then blossom in the summer breeze.Why are they cursed not to walk?Is it to be reaped by birds & bees?Do they quiver when the wind stalks?And bow when the tempest whips.Why do they crawl upright?Is it to worship the Eternal Light?Do they whimper in the moonlit night?Or just shimmer until dawn arrives.The trunks, the rinds,...
