Just thoughts...

    'All Indians are my Brothers and Sisters..' these words repeated with their own added modifications in our school days during the mandatory pledge at assemblies mean much more than what meets the eye. The mandates and definitions that these mere words bring along can span many a tomes of literature. 193 years ago an Indian captivated an audience consisting of people from a multitude of races and ethnicities by addressing them as 'Sisters and Brothers...' . The purity of emotions that come along with this bond is incomparable to any other. The primary reason to address our fellow countrymen as brothers and sisters was somewhere lost in translation from heart to papers and then on to the first page of every textbook printed for a school kid.    The inherent sense of affinity for the people we live with irrespective of any prejudices which history has brought along is the way ahead. Shedding aside the glasses of pre-conceived notions about the people we m...

        The tricolour will fly high once again or shine in their miniature versions on the lapels of our fellow countrymen. Long years ago we truly made a tryst with destiny. And our destiny to this day awaits as a forlorn lover to make good on the word we gave it sixty nine long years ago. Every passing moment we reach out in leaps and bounds in some fields and yet take a beating in the other. Some demoralised, lose themselves to the fate of acceptance. Some react with a hatred towards the system which runs us today. Some simply don't give a damn. And amongst these many 'somes' there are the handpicked few who not just believe but dare to act in the face of adversity. The blame game stops the very moment a person charges right into the niches of action from the sidelines of mediocrity. The faith bundled with a will to make a difference in this ocean where despair reigns high and mighty. Not the unending wait for a messiah to deliver them from the blunders and c...

The importance of being in the company of thoughts that inspire you, keep you at peace and push you towards being a better version of you each day, can never be overestimated.. here are a few reasons to keep the good clock ticking forever.. 1.Positivity is attractive: The best asset you can own in this world is a bundle of good thoughts to carry along with you. No one likes a frown or a person with the forever cynical attitude towards life. Try this for a week and you will find people being at peace and even wanting to be in your company. 2.Its not just utopia: Contrary to a common belief that positive thoughts just add a layer of pretence over the current situation, it is only when you try things yourselves and take initiative to take charge of your live you realise the practicality of keeping a positive frame of mind. 3.A light in the dark: There are times when no one understands your situation. The times of despair when all seems lost and you are dejected to the core. ...

The trees still the same stood upright,  Leaves swaying hiding nooks from plain sight.. Lush green whispering secrets to none, Calmly herding all below be it rain or the sun.. A path meanders its ways through around, Marked by footsteps etched forever safe and sound.. Generations of men come and go in their time, Leaving behind memories more than their hoarded dime.. Thoughts of worry of the future and the past, A thing to learn from the timeless odes firmly cast.. Odes of valour and the good deeds of some, Recounted to this day and for the many to come.. Chose what you do in the present with utmost care, For a moment lost is lost forever, harsh yet truly very fair.. Glimpses through the window of solitude here, Out into the world full of love and a petty kind of fear.. The fear of losing, to be overcome from within, To realise the ounce of courage that is hidden in the din.. At last to end the day with a smile on your face, Mingling with the melo...
