Dearest Darling Daughters




We the Daughters are - Delightful, Attentive, Understanding Girls, Highly Thoughtful, Ever, Reliable...!!

We Daughters bring Beauty and Life to a home with our Tittle-Tattle. We are Dad’s sweetheart and a Mom’s dream and treasure. We learns less and teach more. 

The first time when a daughter is held by her father in his shaking arms, she brings exuberance and delight. I remember my Dad calling me a "Chatter-box" all the time. And the same dad, when I go for a job may it be even for 6 hours misses my tittle-tattle all the time. A daughter's relation with her dad is the 1st male-female relationship in her life. When dad respects and listens our opinions, we gain self-confidence, self-esteem and pride. Dads, thus, lay the groundwork for the type of relationship that their daughters will share with men later in their life.

I still love the line - "To my husband I may not be the Queen, But to my Dad I am always gonna remain her Princess...!!"




A Mother’s best friend, we add sweetness and spice to her life making her a child too. Daughters usually depend on their mothers to help them form their definition of 'womanhood'. Mothers are role models for their daughters. They exemplify how to be an individual, a mother and a wife. She instills in us 3 C's- Compromise, Commitment and Consideration.





Parents watch their daughter grow, second by second with glee and gladness, excitement and exhilaration, apprehensions and tensions and stand by her through all her phases from childhood to teenage and to motherhood.

No matter how grown up she is and how old she gets, it is her prerogative to be a little sulky girl for her parents and they love her for that too. She teaches them patience and forgiveness, tolerance and selflessness and has the key to their hearts forever.The kind of affection so purely angelic that she brings, she deserves to be made special. 

We- The Daughters are the store houses of love, care and innocence as kids, as teenagers, as wives and even we turn mothers..!! And no matter where we go or we settle, we always have our parent by our side. Specially in Indian Society, Widows get Sympathy, Dead get Respect and Singles get Scorn. But forour parents, they still shower us with all the Love, Care and Respect irrespective of our status. They are protective for Daughters, may she be unmarried, divorcee or widows. 

Dedicated to all the Darling Daughters:

From the day one we become Apple of our Dad's eyes
Our Silent Tears do Wonders and Dad agrees to do on what he said a big 'NO' earlier
We can walk in style all day long without looking Tired
We burn our hand atleast once while learning cooking but We Never Complaint
We can Cry throughout the night, but the next morning when our Eyes are Blood-Shot its just Coz Mascara has hit Eyes
We like to be called "Angel", "Princess" or "Baby"
As kids We are dependent on our Parents, and as Adults we like to take care of our Parents..
No matter where we get married, We still are much careful of our Responsibilities towards our Parents
We Leave Behind Our house, Our Parents, Our Room, and still Adjust easily in a nano second...
We Hold Mother's Hands and Dad's Hearts....!!! 

I strongly believe - God must have smiled when He made Daughters, Because He knew He has created love and happiness, for every Mom & Dad. He also ensured that in days to come they will become mother's, 
And give more Daughters to this World, And the cycle of life and death will continue for generations and years to come.


See what a daughter can do to you:

D.... oes so much to bring you joy..... 
A.... dds lots of love to your world.... 
U... plifts you with her smile...... 
G..... ives you memories to cherish..... 
H... as the warmest hugs to share..... 
T.... ouches your heart with her sweetness.... 
E... njoys doing thoughtful things...... 
R.... adiates her own special beauty......

And just to add the froth to the Irish cuppa coffee, Here's an Irish saying:

"A son is a son till he takes him a wife, a daughter is a daughter all of her life....!! "

Happy Daughters Day to All the Females at Every End of the World...!! ...Respect the Womanhood.. And For today -- Daughterhood...!!

Be Alone..But Not Lonely..!!



Let us accept the fact that each one of us has ‘n’ number of mood swings and actually that swings to and fro with highest Amplitude and Frequency.  And we all have a phase where we love to detach ourselves from the entire social circle. Just be with ourselves. It may be coz we are hurt or it may be when we need eternal peace. When we wanna find Peace within ourselves.  Or may be Wanna Heal. Coz Life Neva Promised to be Pleasant all the time. This blog is about how Sometimes unwantedly  the Clouds of  Loneliness Creep in and Sting bitterly. But never to forget that its Darkest right before the Dawn and then the Rays of Sun Stream in With Pleasures. But its u who has to find that ray of hope. I too went through this phase.

There was a time when loneliness crept in my life too. Don’t know whether it was willingly or unwillingly. We all have different ways of handling it. But being alone can be a bliss but being lonely is never.

The only Sounds in the house I could hear were the little one’s, the simmer of coffee on a gas, clanking of cups, the bite of knife wedging the vegetables on the chopping board. And I would get lost at times getting my skin peeled out by knife. At times, I felt like starting the mixture though there was nothing inside it just to fill the nook with some sound. Or would cook with loud volume music and headphones on.

When I would step out of the kitchen and onto the hallway, my bare feet even wouldn’t make sound against mirror-finished grey kota stone flooring. In late afternoon, I would look over my bedroom where the pale light from dipping sun streamed in through windows. I would listen music at high volumes on my i-pod or laptop because I loved producing sound from what I imagined to be an empty expanse.

At times I would enter my own room like an intruder. And funnily, scarcely a few hints indicated that I lived there, like my  clothes in my wardrobe, and my books on my shelves, and my pictures on my room walls.  At times after late night slumber, I felt like this, I would pull the sheets of comforter over my face and search something inside me that would compel me to rise and go back to living. And at times would stare at the vacant pillow besides me.




Days after days wrapped up itself in a shell of emptiness and nights arrived with a new set of promises and resolutions that got broken once mornings set in. I craved for something: Might be harmony, Might be understanding, Might be peace, Might be Happiness, Might be Someone to shake me off from my Loneliness, Someone to just hug me…!! At times I would wake up to squeals and laughter of the T.V. shows that had remained on while I went to sleep watching it. Happiness had become jarring.  From the moment I woke up till I fell into fitful sleep, and sometimes in my dreams too, my mind was logged with Questions – What am I doing to myself? Why am I punishing myself ? Is it nice being lonely or Is it nice being Alone? Is it nice getting detached  or its that m scared of attachments or commitments now???




At times the nerves in my body beat up hard against my skin. It was as if my body had turned inside out, leaving me hollowed me out. There was a kind of rage, don’t know about what and against whom, inside me that I wanted to let out. I wondered what could I do to make my burning thoughts and boiling blood turn into simmer. I would fall down against bed on the floor, cry till I could no more and get up to beat the patches made by my tears.  I would neva look into the mirror and even if I would, I would with criticizing look.

I had always chosen my dreams and ambitions as per my will, coz I neva wanted to blame anyone else for my choices or my life. So now finding myself  in unchartered territory, I didn’t know what my next Milestone would be. For me, neither the neglect, nor the joys made the difference. Having seen loss and failure, I lived in perpetual fear of disaster. There was no definition of my days. I would wake up whenever sunlight streamed in through my bedroom windows, at times may be at afternoon. I knew it was nightfall when the dusk stole light from the novels that I was reading. I never remembered what I cooked or ate although I ate 3 meals a day. After the music and novels, I would clock the passage of time by looking at the traffic sitting on my favourite swing. Days continued clocking in and out, blending into each other.

Then one day, as per mom’s wish I stepped outta the house, going to a Mall for shopping. Everywhere there were people, shops and cars. No one strolled non-chalantly, stopping to catch up with friends; infact people were rushing past each other with their ears pressed in their mobiles. The singular factor defining the mall was its sound that rushed towards me like an enemy I could not fight. Having looked at so much of crowd after weeks, I could feel the life throbbing back into my veins. Somehow I gradually started loving it all over again. The fresh air streaming in from car windows blew my awkwardness away....!! 

Coming back, I directly headed to my room for a long hot shower. I came out an hour later. I guess all I wanted at that time was a long cry in the shower so that I could release the pain that had built up inside me so far..  I almost started sobbing till my breathe got suffocated. Felt at peace. I felt as if my old self had been stripped away and I slipped into a new skin, just like a tree that would shed its dried leaves and welcome the new fresh leaves.  Happiness started inching towards me like a wave, and knowing how fickle it was, I dint wanna scare it away with sudden bouts of despair.

I came back to my routine life. Getting up early, going to gym for 2 hrs, cook, eat, educate the servant class in late afternoon which gives me contentment and evenings sitting on the swing with my music. Night with novels.  I still m alone but not Lonely….!! I enjoy every bit of this life... Living it to the Fullest...!! 

So please Learn to Be Alone without Being Lonely.  And if u at all feel lonely, just go out, take a deep breathe.. Let the fresh air caress u.  And when u urself cant understand whats going on, trust the instincts and decisions of ur loved ones. Coz u might not see in your darkness what they can see since they are at dawn…!!

Standing Alone Just means U r Strong Enough To Handle things By Urself..!!

Being Alone is Not Bad… But Being Lonely Is… Be Alone But Not Lonely… Enjoy Being Alone..!!! May it just be a cuppa coffee... Enjoy Every sip of it Alone...And shake off Ur loneliness.. Life is Beautiful.. Notice it.. Fight for Ur Dreams...!!

My BFF- Best Friends Forever..!!



Losing or Parting from our Best friends at any point of time is a matter of inexplicably Unbearable Pain for any of us, right? Yes, but let me ask an important question: Who is your best friend? If you ask the same question to anybody, of course, they suddenly will remember a long list of their sweet and beloved friends and reveal their names with extra details enthusiastically. 

Try to pose one more question: What do you mean by friendship? Oh My God..! They start to tell all the stuff they did with their friends. Surely, we all know the likes and dislikes of our friends and also we respect them. But my Question is, Do we ever think of making friendship with our own Parents or Mentors who guide our lives..???  Who are the candles that enlighten our lives. Do we???? We never do that.

My this blog is dedicated to few important people in my life whose words urged me and wanted me to write something…

Lets come to the people for whom I may have forgotten to say that they are my Best Friends.. or against whom I may have rebelled at times that they are not my friends..!! They are My Parents n My Mentor….!! My parents who brought me to LIFE and my Mentor who taught me the meaning of the word – LIFE…!! 

Growing up, my Mom and Dad always told me that they were my Best Friends and no matter what they would always be there for me. At such a young age, I went through many stages in my life were I disagreed with what they told me. I would go through times where I said I hated them so much for punishing me, enforcing rules, and keeping me from doing the things that I wanted.  In school, I excelled in all the courses with very high grades. I thought because of my outstanding grades, I could defy my parents’ rules and guidelines all that I wanted. At the time, they were the last people I would consider my "Friends".

However, as I grew up, I have come to realize one thing I never did before; My parents are my Best Friends. With their love and guidance, my parents have had a tremendous impact on the person I am today. They have coached me rather than making decisions for me. I always have been given the freedom to discuss openly and frankly on anything…(however m still hesitant to an extent) !! When I had my first crush, my parents knew it before my crush knew it..!! Lol… They have been with me.. Stood by me.. Always showed me the fairer side of life and enriched my life with their compassion.. And I think that’s what a  Best Friend is meant to do.. 

Well..Unfortunately the same is the case with My Mentor. My first impression for my Mentor was she is a “Serious Dictator” who just orders me- “How to act?” and “What to do?” (LOL) ..bcoz she happened to be my boss too. But within quite a short time I realized it wasn’t true at all.. Infact she was never my boss... Infact, she is Gem of a Person as I always say.  Never realized that whom I never understood in the beginning and who never understood me in the start would one day be a person to whom I would rush when I have any single thing to share.. May it be happy or may it be sad... It is from her I learnt the meaning of word -  LIFE. She taught me LIFE is simple:
L- Laughter in times of sadness and woes
I – Integrity in one’s own belief
F – Fortitude to be independent and an individual
E – Enjoyment in content in life without Expectations
Quite Easy na?? But it took me 6 months to understand what she was trying to explain. She’s one more person who is responsible for what I am and who I can count like 1,2,3 in my best friends’ list along with my parents. Infact I would have got lost in the Fog of Depression if she wasn’t the street light who enlightened and showed me the way. And today is the time when if I sneeze I would let her know. Infact for her, I genuinely believe that "When Destiny Forgets to Tie Sm People in Blood Relations, It corrects its mistake by making Them Best Friends..!" She's that close to me. My Mentor- My BFF (Best Friend Forever) for sure..!! 

These are the people we forget in our daily lives. Friends we should realize that nobody can be a better friend than our parents or mentors, who may already have lost many of their ‘close friends’ in course of upbringing their children or upbringing an institute in case of a mentor. If we shun close bond with our parents or mentor, loneliness will become a part of their life. Surely they will accept it as fate. 

How many of us know what is up with our parents, the same way that we know what is going on with our friends are up to? How many of us has that one person in life other than parents who taught us how to live? And when we start enjoying our life how many of us go back and tell that Mentor thanks for teaching us the same? A piece of paper – a resignation – an air ticket – all these should not make us forget what they did for us. Are we aware How they are feeling? What makes them happy, angry, annoyed or frustrated? Unfortunately, we do not know our parents or mentors as much as we know our friends. Did we ever ask them what their friends were like? What was their perspective about friendship when they were kids or our age?

When we give preference for our ‘personal life’ over relationship with our parents and mentors we should realize that they too had a personal life before our birth or when heard our catharsis for hours in case of mentor. But did they care about their personal life at that time? Infact they made us their priority.. Then how can we treat them as an option..??? Are we that cruel???

We should talk to our parents and mentors more often; we should hang out with them once in a while, take them out for a coffee or lunch or dinner and get to know them. We will find that this will not only give us a new perspective on their parenting or mentorship, but it will instill a new found mutual respect in us for them and in them for us, and it will also create and strengthen a connection that should last a life time - that of friendship.

Since last 10 years I have been celebrating Friendship’s day and Valentine’s Day with my Parents. However this year, this year I would like to spend some time with my mentor too ( incase she's free from her busy schedule) and know her perspective on friendship. Because for me she is Morrie and I always say I wish I had Tuesdays or Sundays or Any days with her...(P.S. -Those who dint understand.. Read the book -"Tuesdays with Morrie".. and u will get to know what does the word MENTOR mean) ... I want to know their experiences and want their teachings to consume me soooo much that this can be the most memorable friendship’s day of my life…!! 

Happy Friendship's Day to all of U with a Cuppa Coffee...!!

Live to the Fullest, Jst Dont Exist...!!





Oscar Wilde said - "To Live is the Rarest thing in the World, Most people Exist, That is All...!!" 
Now a days people eke out a living, improve their living conditions or keep their high standard of living,  but They Forget to Live...! Infact, People don't Live, but They Survive Each day, for they are too Busy, too Tired, too Stressed and too Worried to really enjoy the pleasures of life. 


Here are the 15 ways To Live and Not Just Exist...:-


1. Appreciate the People & Things in Your Life: 
Appreciate the People in Ur Life Now. You have No Way of Knowing How Long They'll be there. Show Ur Love Now before Someone has been taken away Tomorrow. Cherish those who Love U and Appreciate them today. Appreciate Small Things n Gestures in Life.. It may be a Hug.. It may be a Helping Hand.. It may be a Good Morning Wish.. It may be a Smile...These are small things that can give Big Joys...!! 


2. Ignore other People's Negativity:
Never debate with Negative People. Be Empathetic. Help them to Address their Emotions, the Solutions will automatically will come to them. Converse only on light topics like New movies, Daily occurrences, Common friends, Jokes, etc. that can lighten their mood. Praise the person for Positive things. If possible, reduce the contact gradually. 


3. Forgive those who Hurt U:
Forgiveness is the attribute of Strong People. Weak can just take revenge. Always Remember Forgiveness Warms the Heart and Cools the Sting thereby Maintains the Thermal Equilibrium of our Emotions. Forgive those who Hurt U but Never Forget what it Taught U...!!


4. Never Lose Ur Individuality:
Never Lose Ur Individuality or Identity. Once u Lose that, U just become one more face in the Crowd. Those who Love u will never ask u to give up Ur individuality. They will Love U for what u are, what u were and what U are yet to be.. Those who Mind Ur Individuality Don't Matter and those who Matter just Don't Mind..!!


5. Listen to Ur Inner Voice:
Listen to Ur Inner Voice. Trust Ur Instincts n Intuitions. Don't blindfoldly trust what others say. Take some time out before U go to bed and talk with yourself. Jot down Ur thoughts. Go through it once in a while. U will get all the answers by yourself. Believe in Urself. 


6. Embrace Change and Enjoy Ur Life as it Unfolds:
Don't be Resistant to Changes. Infact embrace it with Open Arms. Let the Life Unfold itself. U never know Life has its own Surprises. Some may be Pleasant, and Few may be Unpleasant. But then every cloud has a silver lining. Think Positive about the changes. Don't stagnate urself. Keep moving. Always remember that it is Darkest just right before the Dawn...!! 


7. Choose Ur Relationships Wisely:
A man is known by the company he keeps. So choose ur relationships wisely. Be only with those who give u reasons to Smile and not those who try to Bring u Down. Relationships play the most important role in helping you Live the Life. Be with People who know Ur Worth. U don't need the whole team to be Happy coz of U.. U just need a handful of them who appreciate for who U are..  


8. Recognize those who Love U:
Its so said that - "Its Not ur fault if U cant judge the Eyes that Ditch You.. But its Definitely Ur Fault if U can't judge the Eyes that Love U." Those who love you will never leave u for ur Mistakes, when u r Broken or when u Lie or when u r Ugly. Infact they are the ones who Accept ur Mistakes, Give U Moral Support when u r Broken, Accept ur Excuses and who knows ur Inner Beauty. They are the ones who will show U why life  is Beautiful and y is it mandatory to Live it..!! Those who love u will love u unconditionally.. without  any expectations in return...!! Identify them and Cherish them....!! 






9. Love Urself:
If U want to actually Live n Not just Exist.. This is the main key.. Love Urself... Hug Urself every morning when u wake up.. and say - "I Love myself for Being me"...!! Always remember... Only if U Love Urself, only then  U can expect Someone Else to Love U...!! 


10. Do things Ur Future Self will Thank U For:
Do something Now that will make U Proud of Ur Ownself in Ur Later years. Do something that gives u contentment permanently. Touch a life. Enlighten a Soul. Enrich with your Love n Care. 


11. Be Thankful for all the Troubles U Don't  Have:
I have seen many of us cribbing for very small things. Like My mom didnt cook my favourite dish well.. My mentor didn't answer my call back. My dad dint lend me the car today to drive. At the same times, what about those who don't have food to eat. Those who have celebrities as their role models and cant meet them for lifetime. Because this one is accessible it doesnt mean they have to reciprocate every single thing. What about those who walk on foot daily to save their expenses. Be grateful for whatever u have got. God knows and gifts U whateva u Deserve and Not what u Desire. And the only Key to it is Don't Expect... Let every little thing be surprise and see how it makes u Happy.  Be unconditional. 


12. Leave Enough Time for Fun:
Do things that make u happy and in which u experience fun. Like I love to care and love n surprise my nearest n dearest ones... I love music.. I love being on Swing.... I love talks over Coffee... Anything...!! Do what gives u pleasure and u will actually enjoy living ur life every moment... 


13. Enjoy the Little Things in Life:
Enjoy and Appreciate Little things in Life.. We wish to earn loads of money but we have the best of times only when we just discover just 10 bucks in pocket surprisingly... We wish to wear high brands but we feel most comfortable in track pants and night suits...We wish to Sit in Taj and Marriot with elite people but the fun is in having Pani-Puri at a roadside Lorry with closest friends...Sometimes A Small walk to Remember with Dear ones is much better than Long Drives.... Sometimes sitting with someone and having no conversation is much better than having 2 hours long talk.... Take note of small gestures n small things so when u achieve bigger ones, u can smile n say - "I have lived it all"....!!!


14. Accept the fact that Past is Not Today:
Past is a Nice Place to Visit .. But Definitely Not a Good Place to Stay or Reside... Accept that whats gone is gone... And for thing that is gone, U cant ruin the current Moment... which is called "Present" - A gift...Just learn to live at the moment and that too to the fullest...!!  


15. Let Go when U must: 
Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure. The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that that situation is over, you cannot move forward....!!!


So lets just not Exist for the sake of the Existence... Lets b Fit and Live to the Fullest..... Coz at the end its the Survival of the Fittest.... and that Can only be Possible if U Live ur Life to the Fullest....!!! 


Stop Trying to Fit in... When u were already Born to Stand Out...!!

Butterfly Kiss of the Raindrops..!!





As it Rains and the Heaven showers its Raindrops.. and while I am Sunk in my Regular Routine Work,.. I soooooo very much feel like Enjoying the Pitter-Patter Outside...!!  The weather's chilling and am feeling sooooo lousy.. However its Impossible to Sleep Again Once U wake up to the Alarm in Ur Mobile..!! ( Even after Snoozing it Thrice...LOL... )


Rains make me Happy and Wistful. I wonder about something. No matter of what Age, but still Each one of US likes reaching out the hand to Touch N Feel the Raindrops..!! It seems as if its Caressing my Roly-Poly Cheeks, and the Cold Breeze Accompanied with it Fondling my Long Straight Hair...!! Although We Can Smell the Beautiful Aroma of the Mother Earth and Visualize the Beauty of Nature and Rain, still There is a different Exuberance in Feeling N Touching d Raindrops...!!! 


This makes me wonder --> How would "Helen Keller" have felt when she touched d Raindrops for the 1st time.. without even visualizing the beauty of it... Anyways...!! Certain things are Better Felt than Viewed...! Thats the reason when we Want to feel something we close our eyes.... !! 


Here I am Sitting on the Bean Bag on the Porch... Listening to Some Melodious Numbers... Headphones in and Ignore the World...!!  Well..Well.. The Number going on in my I-pod is "Jab Koi Baat Bigad Jaaye"... Quite Romantic Naa...!! Reading a Novel - "A feeling Beyond Forever... " and still admiring the Beauty of the Rain and the Surroundings... Looking at the birds and squirrels enjoying the showers....!! Nothing bothers me at the moment ...Everything seems sooooo Pleasant n Perfect...!! Its strange when few ppl say that "They love walking in Rain so no1 can see their tears...".. How can someone be soooo pessimistic in such a heavenly weather...!! (P.S. - I also lyk Rain coz it means my Name too....!! LOL) 


At this time I feel.. Can this beauty be felt in the same way and Can it stir the same emotions if it was a blog or a pic or a poem on Fb or any other social site...??? What say my Ravishing Readers??? 


I certainly Support Open Dialogue and the Freedom of Individual Choices but I also believe that Internet is not the place to Dialogue about the major issues regarding the Most Important People in our lives. When we do this, we miss out on some of the most Elemental Aspects of - Communication and Connection...!!  The Relations just dependent on Internet or Mails or Sms...that can just be Viewed n Not Felt .. become Frigid and Apathetic..


Take more Time to Seek out Face to Face Encounters with Ur Near n Dear Ones. Pick up d Phone N Listen to what others want to say.... Listen to their Meaningful Silence and Understand it too... Make some Eye Contact this Week N Assure that Ur Dear ones are Not Alone....  We could all afford to be a Little More Real with each other. This is hard to do with a computer screen in a way...!!


I myself am feeling an Urge to just contact my Few Forgotten Near n Dear Ones...And All it will Take is a Cup of Steaming Hot Coffee snuggled between the palm of my Hands, its Warmth seeping in, the Cool Breeze caressing my face and a deep breath to begin....!! 


It would be such a Perfect Time to share Feelings. A lot of Feelings and Emotions in our lives take our Breath Away and with it comes a Burst of Loving Comfort. It may Last. It may Not Last. I do not know that. When it rains, it feels like anything may Work or Not Work but should an Opportunity arise I would not want to miss a chance to feel the things I feel right now....!!! 


Get Real... Be Rational.....  Communicate and Connect...!!!

Express....Before its Too Late..!!






Love and Care... These are those four-letter words that can be the antidotes to almost anything and everything. They can motivate U - To be Healthier, To do Better n Be better. But the opposite is also true.


A Lack of these "Emotions" can explain --> Y Ur Relative is often called a Curmudgeon..?? Y Ur Neighbor is constantly Criticizing U....???? Y Ur Co-Worker is always busy Talking Behind your Back...???


It’s the biggest secret we never talk about. The reason "Why Difficult People are So Difficult is that -- They Only want to be Loved n Cared....!!"  So if Someone is Giving U a Hard Time, or may be Bothering U or Jst being Plain Mean...Consider that it might Just be a Plea for Love n Care...!!


These are the Emotions that are always warmly welcomed with open hands although not reciprocated at times... It can be from Mother to Her child, A Lover to Beloved, A Friend to a Friend, A Granddaughter to a GrandPa, A disciple to a Mentor....Anywhere and for Anyone...! Shower it Unconditionally on Anyone and see the difference...!!! There are No Terms n Conditions Applied to these Antidotes... Be kind..!!


Express Ur Love n Care to the Fullest and that too Ryt Now...coz Whats Today Myt Not B there Tmrw Coz Change is the only Constant thing in Universe... I strongly believe -  "Life is too short to keep the important Words Unsaid.."...!! So Speak it Loud, Express it Loud and Live Life to the Fullest without Hesitations and Limitations..!! 


I too do the same...!!  Strangely... Most of the times I too have been insisted to suppress them... I have also been addressed 'Crazy' by many...'Emotional Fool' by Zillions...and 'Over-Expressive' by the most...!! I have heard My mentor and Few Elders telling me - "Its better to lock up certain Emotions into a trunk and Put it Aside...!!"... I was soooo puzzled on hearing that.... I remained speechless but all I could sense is ... "Emotions in the trunk directly indicates Emotions are Being Coffined....!!" And All i could do is shed tears so that those emotions rest in Peace..!! 


I still feel.. Y do u need to suppress what U feel...??? And for whom??? The World... ??? The Society..?? And what if in the mean process of pleasing the world, the society, the working place,....what if u lose ur loved ones.. ur dear ones .. ur near ones...forever...!! U want to scream and say them u love them... U want to just rush and hug them... U want to pat their back.. U want to yell at them.. U want to hold them and never let them go... U want to jst be beside them when they are weeping.. U wanna reciprocate Every Emotion that they gave u.. Every thing that they gesticulated... U wanna thank them.. Feel sorry for not Reciprocating the same.. But then are they to there to Listen U????? The answer is a - 'BIG NO'.. its already late by then..!!


I feel - " Any1 of us would prefer a Single Rose and a Kind Word Ryt Now than a Truck load of Flowers and Garlands after we are Gone Foreva.."


A dear friend of mine always had clashes with her dad... She always thought her dad is over-protective putting too many restrictions... Always misjudged his care as Interference and at times was harsh to him...But her dad continued to care and love in the same way with every broken piece of his heart...!! Finally  a day when she woke up she found his body numb and still...She lost him forever and then she wanted to scream...say sorry... say thank u... say how much she loved him .. but could she???? No... 


Most of us think... What is d hurry... ??? I will ask her health tmrw.... I will call him up later... I will msg her later.. I will unwrap the gifts later... I will show my emotions later... I will pick up her call later... I will express my love and care later.... leave it to the time.....!!! What if we come to know that, that person is no longer in jst a fraction of second... and u dint ask health... call him up..ans her msg... unwrap gifts and ... show emotions...etc... Do it now Coz Life is Uncertain.. and thats the only Certainty...!


Understand that Time Waits for Nothing So no point Leaving to it..!! The only Time is "NOW" ..!! Express the Emotions to the Fullest with the thought -- "Later is Now"...!! 

Don't Hesitate..!! Neva let go emotions in ur lyf such that in Future, when U r sitting idle with ur Cuppa Coffee... all u have to say is  - "I wish i could... I wish I would have... !"... Fulfill ur Wishes Today...!! Express it today..before its too late...!!

Swing Brings Zing..!!



Each one of us has some or the other memory associated with the swing..!!
Swing- My Most Favourite Place at Home....!! 
Swing- Symbol which shows Togetherness and Love of Radha-Krishna...!!
Swing- A Game in Childhood, A Friend in Adulthood and A Company in Old Age..!!

As a Kid, We have loved to play on the Swing... No matter How Scary it was...
It gave us the hallucination of Touching the Sky and at times Beyond....
Parents at times swinging us to and fro Just to see a Smile on our face...
And to make us Fearless when Time and Life Swings Us in the Same Way Between Pleasures n Pains...!!

As a Teenager, We have sat with our Friends, Chit-Chatting for Hours... Sharing our Pranks..
At times Studying for the Exams on the same Swing,
Where the Frequency of the Swings was Directly proportional to the Tension of our Exams.. 
Often Going to Sleep in Mother's Lap - The Paradise - On the Same Swing..!! 

As an Adult, We talk for Hours and Sms 1000 texts to our Beloved Ones Sitting on the Swing..
Getting Wet during the Rains on the Swing....Feeling the Love in the Air....Oops! Rains...!! 
Crying Alone in the Nights - Starry or Cloudy - For the Downfalls in Life and Relations...
Sharing the Loneliness and Tears with the Same Swing...!!

In the Late Age, Our Morning would start with the Cuppa Coffee on the same Swing...
The Headlines of the Newspaper will be read on the Same Swing...
The Evenings of Retired Life on d Same Swing Recalling Every Cherishable Memory of Past...
Thinking What We Achieved in Life and How far have we Come....
Regretting and Asking for Forgiveness from God for Any Mistake in the Past... With a Quiet Tear Rolling down the Wrinkled Cheeks..!
Praying God to bless Every Near n Dear one with Happiness n Good Health on the Same Swing....!!

Life May be Too Short but its the 'SAME SWING' that has experienced Every Single Emotion of Us which even our Closest Ones Might Not Know...!! 

Spread Ur Arms, Reach out to Ur Closest Ones...Forget the Grudges if Any, Hug them and Spend The Most Cherishable time with Them on the Swing with Just a CUPPA COFFEE.....!! 


P.S.- This post is for the contest Indiblogeshwaris - "The Tuesday Thingy-Sepia Tones"...!! :)
