Memories of 2011

New year is round the corner and we are coming to an end of eventful year in some sense. For me personally it's an end of my life's second phase and the awaited beginning of the third phase. My graduation completed in this year, so it's an unforgettable and the most valuable year of my life. Though I am partly sad and alone because I am no more a free bird now but the sense of maturity has arose me from the student phase to a professional phase. Third phase of life always comes with some meaning to your future businesses, or I should say the most meaningful  things like your job, career, marriage etc. It's a year of many bad fortunes along with some good ones too. India winning the world cup after 27 years is one among them, whereas in bad fortunes; many big names have lost their bodies and disappeared into heaven for its betterment. Yes it is the best way to console your heart, that these wonderful souls are resting in heaven. For Bollywood fans it's a more horrible year than any other creatures of the world. Though Steve Jobs was a big name on the world stage because of his inventions of Mac OS, Mac book, IPod, I phone, I pad etc. but still in count India has lost its most beloved pearls in the names of Shammi Kapoor, M.F.Hussain, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, Bhupen Hazarika, Jagjit Singh, Dev Anand. The deaths of these wonderful men were mourned by the entire nation and the world. At the end of all this, that had happened correct or incorrect in this year 2011 we have to move ahead for 2012 and wish & pray for the best  in terms  of everything to god. May god bless every individual on this earth with peaceful heart and healthy beginning in new year i.e. 2012.

It's all about INDIA !!!

Sometimes I think about those things that makes my country different from others. Yes I am talking about my country "INDIA". Life here is so unpredictable but yet so lively , that makes it a nation of joy. People here are treated as the high profile authority which makes or breaks the government by their votes.  Though by the end of elections government always forgets about them for next 5 years. It's a nation of pride for many people who belong to India but reside abroad. People here are less bothered about streamlining of their own living habitats but they somehow find it beautiful! Astonished to know how it happens? People here are bifurcated in different categories: some people are omnists , some are polytheists and some are atheists. Apart from all these bifurcations everyone lives in here with the same integrity and pride. India has produced many big icons like Mahatama Gandhi, Lata Mangeshkar, Amitabh Bachchan, Sachin Tendulkar, A R Rehman etc. but the thing that comes in my mind is how these icons have become the icons of the world? And the only answer I got is the love and affection of our country people which has made them the real world icons. I live in such a country where a person is treated as the God of cricket and where every Indian feels the same tension when the Indian cricketers play against their arch rival Pakistan, on the field. It's not only the nation of few things but all its things are diversified into many. It's the second largest populated nation in the world, it has more than 400 languages  spoken in different regions, fourth largest army and fifth largest economy in the world. All these stats makes India a different and an unique nation. The culture and the cuisine of India is well known all over the globe. It's the country of various historic events and  architectural beauties, here we have the most beautiful heritage "Taj Mahal" that was built in the loving memory of Mumtaz by Shahjehan , the Mughal emperor. And today it is known as one of the seven wonders of the world. Like taj mahal there are many other symbolic places that have witnessed many changes in the history of India. Some of them are: Red Fort, India Gate, Gateway of India, Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb etc. People here are very religious and belong to different castes and that's what makes them to celebrate the most number of festivals than any other country in a year. The young generation of my nation also shows great promise to move and built our nation with their intelligence. Indians are considered to be as the most referred individuals to be outsourced in various fields and in different nations. We being a part of one of the countries that was once ruled by Britisher's is now considered as world's most important nation. And this is not the end note to describe my country's uniqueness. It has so many things to describe about, but being an Indian is enough to show how we are different from others.

I really miss those days

I really miss those days when I used to see and wave hands to everyone in the front yard of the college.

I really miss those days when I used to wake up early in the morning to catch the bus.

I really miss all that time which I spent with my friends and juniors.

It’s been a long time since I am dreaming about all these things in my present life.

Time always changes but the past is something that can never be changed.

Everything related to our past seems so very memorable and wonderful, but destiny is something that can never be ignored.

What we are doing and what we are up to, are certain questions that are not answerable but are genuine.

Memories of old and happy days still make us laugh, but somehow there is some hitch to live those wonderful days again.

Everyone is not doing the same as what I am doing; all of us are separated in different areas.

If I want to make things better and live my previous life again then I must have to assemble everyone together from whatever conditions and situations we all are living in.

Friends are the part of life and the happy days that we spent together makes those days

as heartbeat of the life.

So my friends its better to take care of these days and plan for something new, 

perishing of memories is not the solution, so plan something worthy for you.

में और मेरी तन्हाई !!

तनहाइयों से परे तो हम भी न थे 

लेकिन अपनों ने भी बेगाना बना दिया 

जिनको याद किया करते थे 

आज उन्हने भी न मिलने का बहाना बना दिया

जिन सपनो के सहारे जी रहे थे 

अब उन सपनो को भी अनजाना बना दिया 

सोचा था अब अपने आप को संभाल लेंगे 

लेकिन इस सोच को भी  रूहाना बना दिया 

उमीदों के इस समुन्दर में अब कहीं खुद को न खो दें 

इस लायक हमने अपने दिल को बना दिया

समझने वाले समझे न समझे 

लेकिन समझाने वालों को भी आज हमने समझा दिया

Why?

I am not supposed to feel like the people, who never got attention from their loved ones! But

I don't know why I always wanted some extra love and attention!

Why I always get ignored by the people I trust?

Why my words are always taken for granted?

Why it is that no one understands me ?

Why it is that no one share things with me?

Why is my life so enigmatic?

All these whys are making my life empty and unsustainable. I don't know the reason why is this "why" word creating so much dilemma in my life?

Sometimes it becomes hard for me to understand my own life.Rather I would say it happens almost.

Every time  when I tried to answer these questions, I almost turned up into nothing.

If these questions are so complex and can't be answered, then why am I always bothered?

May be its an inner feeling or my heart's disappointment!

If I want to survive through this and to live my life with no bad memories.I would have to change myself and my attitude.

And in the end, it might show some huge satisfaction for me to be happy and lively.

If life comes out as a happy moment then  all the sorrows in it will fade like a fainting edge.

Inspiration

When I was at something , I couldn't make up for anything,

When I was alone, I always felt it as I was gone,

Days have passed but still my moves aren't so fast,

Sun always gleams when it rises, Moon always shines when it sprinkles light,

The world is going on and on with the effect of youth's rock on!

Dangling nature casts a person uncertain, but certainty is no more a word relating to this world.

Shining is not a part of life but it always comes in as a phase of life.

There are things which can never be borrowed nor can be sold.

These things can only be earned with love,affection,trueness and care.

Courage is not required to do new things rather to leave those things.

Life is not a lost destiny ,rather it should be destined to become a happy ending!

Relationships are not meant to have synonyms of making a bonding perfect

Instead belief is the word that makes the relationship stronger.

In lieu of living this materialistic life, be a person to make changes happen and live it like a king size life.

Life doesn't give chance to those who admire the thoughts of pessimists,

And the thoughts that made impact and admired by people are known as words of optimists.

So be an optimist and value your words and one day u will see an entire new world waiting for you.
