An Open Letter

The Open letter that my granny wrote to her 'Disease' -

Dear Disease,

It's true that you made me weak. You made me feel terrible in inside of me. You even made me think that it's gonna be my end. But DANG IT! Look at me now. I'm alright! Yes. You may scare me. You may make me cry. But remember one thing. You can never ever make me stop!
I will resist!
I will rebel!
You can't slay me!
Yes, you are strong. But remember that my heart is stronger. And a human with a strong heart is never less than a grenade. You may win over me one day. But for this time, victory belongs to me.
Well,  thank you for teaching me how to treat any obstacle like a unskillful warrior and win over them like a King!
Thank you.
With lots of love,
Your Defeater.

LIFE

No matter how hard you try, Sometimes it's better to be  in silence than cry. The stormy  clouds will soon pass away And you will of course find a better way. All you got to do is work hard day and night One day you will be proud to see yourself at greater height. The  wind of success is so  sweet That the ones who ignored will now greet Life is something which everyone can't understand. But the ones who do are the ones who outstand .                                                         

As I Pray...

With moon hung by our shoulder, we were seated in the varanda feeling the slightly cold breeze pass by us. We got startled by the unappealing sound of the ambulance siren. I gave a sigh of relief and turned back to take a look at my granny. I got confounded by what I saw. The paled hands of her with wrinkles like that of a cotton shirt that had been left unironed for decades, came together, prepping for a prayer. Her eyes shut down instantly and I could see her lips which were pulled inside, mumbling something. There was this strange tranquilness in the air for a second and then she opened her eyes and continued reading Ramayana. Driven by my anxious mind, I asked her what was it all about. She passed this pleasing smile and started talking," This world we live in is quite a selfish one. We make wishes for ourselves hoping God will listen and make them come true. But that's not how it works." I was listening but I couldn't help but notice that her voice was not quive

A Note of Happiness

Well, well, lemme tell you something. Here in Copper(my home town), we celebrate our Republic Day with Parade competition and ya some dance programmes. Then there would be a mela to cherish the morning of the  Republic Day. Every year there would be so many people gathering in the Nehru Ground, where the programmes are usually held. And every year I and my sister along with some of our friends race to the mela to buy things we adore. And every year, Papa would leave to office saying "I've kept the money in the shelf". It has been so since years. He never forgets to keep the money, no matter what. But this morning, since I was asleep I didn't hear him saying anything. So as I woke up, I was a lil confused if he forgot about it or what. With hope I approached the shelf. Dhk Dhk *heart beats* Huh. There it was. A note of  Rs.200. I held it in my hand with a smile. And as I looked up there was kunju(sister)  standing there smiling at me. We both shared no words but

How To Paint The River Back To Blue?

Lately, I was travelling in metro. It's way too fasinating you know to fly above the city skipping all those traffic and noise, enjoying the incredible view that the city has to offer. So that day, there was a young boy and his mother sitting right beside me. Probably, they climbed on metro for the first time. As the metro was about to reach the bridge over the river, the boy climed on his seat to have a proper look at the river. "Beta, it's Yamuna" his mom said. After staring at the river for few seconds, the boy questioned "But mom, aren't rivers blue? Why is Yamuna black? The lady explained "It is like that beta!". Wait. What? Really? Was it like that before? wasn't it blue once? Wasn't it's colour  changing like most of the rivers in India? Haven't we humans painted it in black with the brushes of plastic? Well whom to blame when its always about blaming  others. We humans talk about pollution with cigarettes  in our

What Did She Scribble?

Last wednesday was so hectic. We all were super tired as we just got back from Jaipur. Now tiredness has a very devasting effect on me. I think about all my problems and issues in one go and sadness hit me hard like a huge truck carrying 100 elephants. So as usual, I cried and cried and cried till my eyes refused to spare anymore drop of tear. My nose just turns red when I cry.  So Kunju, my lil sis took pics of me to show everyone that I looked similar to a rotten tomato when I cried. But to be honest, I was so down. So I grabbed my blanket and covered myself as if it could help me fight my anxities. Anyways, it helped me hide my rotten tomato like face though. Then I heard my mom giggling. I peeped out to see what was she laughing at. And I knew the cause when I saw kunju standing near her with the mobile in one hand. "Mummy!!" I yelled frowing at her. " Ya, now that makes a perfect tomato there" she said winking at me. Then she pulled the blanket off me and grab

The King Soul

Never saw him weak. Never saw him weep. He has power in his voice. And his soul is a king. When he fold his arms with a smirk, His eyes glitter through the dark. Touch him, you will freeze. Mess with him, you will not be in ease. Don't dare him. He always plays your game better! In those dusty winds,  When all of us closed our eyes He kept it Open So that he could lead us to somewhere safe! No matter, what came as obstacle He would be there like a shield,  And we wouldn't get even a glare. Don't know If all those Super Heroes exist or not. But there's one, whom I know. The person whom I call 'Daddy'!

One Woman Army

On life's harsh roads, She wobbled and she slipped. But she never fell. And, that made her a Warrior! She got roses with thorns. She got apples with worms. But she never refused. And, that made her a Warrior! At times, she was torn and sad. She got cuts and she bled. But she was never afraid. And, that made her a Warrior! There was no love. There was no sympathy. But she survived everything with her dignity. And, that made her a Warrior! She was not a born Warrior. Life made her.

'This Moment '

It's 11:00 pm,  December 31,2017 . I'm on my bed as usual with the blankets on.  I've got pen in my hand,  book on my lap and every sort of thing a student would require to study except for the presence of mind. My mind is just wandering about the stuff going on earth.  I was thinking about 'this moment ' of people all around the world.  Well,  for me though it's quite boring but it need not to be the same for someone right next to me.  For instance,  my lil sister is playing game in the phone.  She might be having a good time.  There would be someone under the sun who might be thrilling out. Where as for some ' this moment ' would be quite pathetic.  Like,  it varies for every single person.  At  this moment,  someone would be taking his last breath , while someone would've taken his first breath. There would be someone shedding tears of joy while there would be someone who is shedding tears of gloom.  Like,  same actions with different meanings in

Wings you didn't know about

Climb up the highest place you know. Stand at the edge and listen to the wind. It's singing a song for you. Let your hair open and let them flow 'cause you are a queen and the world must know. Open them, your eyes and look at all those wonderful things around you, 'cause it's only one life that we've got and we must live it! For a moment get all those things out of your mind. Let them say what they want, let them do what they want for they are in search of a happy life that you are living already. Scream your lungs out. Say those words they say you shouldn't be knowing, do those things they say you shouldn't be doing 'cause now, right now, right here, it's you and it's your life. And you know what? You can do whatever you wish to do. Forget those rules, they aren't for you. You've got no time to follow them for you have got much better things to follow. Forget that grief for there's an ocean of things for you to feel happy
