God an Me

Na jaane kitni baar woh Ishwar khud ko prove karta hai


Phir bhi mera mann nahin bharta hai


Zara si mushkil aati hai


To kehti hun kahan hai tu dikha mujhe


Aisa nahin lagta ki mera kuch khayal hai tujhe


 


Bhool jaati hun ki har baar meri kashti ko wohi paar lagata hai


Mujh jaise aalsi insaan ko roz subha wohi to neend se jagata hai


Aur kehta hai ki chal aaj phir ek koshish kar


 


Main har baar shayad sirf 1% koshish karti hun ,


Aur who mujhe 100% result deta hai


 


Phir bhi jab bhi mushkil aati hai to


Main phir ek baar phir uske astitva par question mark lagati hun


Aur kehti hun ki ab fir prove kar ki teri list mein main bhi aati hoon

Just some random thoughts

My mom always taught me to continuously strive for making life better and worthier.


I am trying to do that till date, although I am lazy and laid back as always.


But even then I am trying to do whatever I can, life is just not yielding to my efforts, It becomes tough and severe whenever it chooses to be, but then I always believe it could have been tougher, still God is kind to us more than what we deserve (This is something we do put it in words, but we actually aren't this humble to accept it.)


 


Life is too bossy I feel it just expects you to flow with it, no matter what pops up when, it doesn't expect to question it, just like an Indian husband!!!!!!


One is just supposed to follow the flow, be na鴳e and obedient (Just like what is expected out of an ideal "Bahu").It trifles your identity , your efforts , your planning ,your thoughts and this list goes on and still expects you to be with it as if you and life are the most amiable companions , the best pals ever. Even if it becomes gracious enough to allow you to have the cake, it will let you eat it only when it has become stale and its colour has changed from pink to green (because of bacterial some reaction!!!!).If you wanna have a pizza, it will find you a shop selling "poori 'aloo" and expect you to savour it without an itch.


 


I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS IT UPTO AND SINCE IT HAS CHOSEN TO ANSWER ME ONLY WHEN IT PLEASES, OUT OF NO OPTION


I CHOOSE TO LET IT PLAY WITH ME.


 


In the meanwhile I shall continue to make efforts to please life in the hope one day


it will let me steer it , till then I shall try to flow with it , smile with it , cry with it , be a game for it (for which even if I don't agree it shall make me one).

Something Instant

Socha tha bahut age barungi


Bahut kuch karungi


Par itne traffic signal hain har mor par


Ki kya aage barungi or kya karungi


 


Phir sochti hun jab signal aye


To thora aaram karlun


Uske baad ki 100 ki speed ke liye energy bharlun


Aise bhi chalti hai zindagi to chal jaye


Ruk ruk kar hi sahi aage barne ko to mil jaye


 


Mumma kehti hain 每﹛jo bhi ho aage baro


Situation kitni bhi against ho, jo ban pare woh karo


Na ummeed hona maine tumhe sikhaya nahin


Nirash kal ka sapna kabhi dikhaya nahin


Isliye Itni khuli rahein bhi mil jayein to samjo treat hai


Tumse kabil bhi bahut aise hain, jinke naseeb mein sirf street hain


 


Kyonki mujhe bhi ummeed ko zinda rakhne ki lust hain


To isliye aage barne ki koshish karna to must hain


 


So getting back to the hope which is


Kabhi to hum par bhi nazar jayegi


Kamyabi ki raah humein khud hi kheechkar le jayegi


Aisa din bhi ayega ki jo kehtein ki tum kuch bhi nahin


Wohi kahenge 每 tumhare siwa aur koi bhi nahin!!!!


 


P.S ﹝Its been so many days since I blogged, But I hope u all like this one. This I wrote today morning


When I entered in my office just to find once again there was hardly any qualitative work for me to do ,

I was just trying to find a match between my ambitions and my current professional growth, so I wrote this.

Just like that

Its so strange that while choosing something as big as a life partner , the first thing which is asked for is about the physical appearance of the person.All the newspaper add would be saying “Wanted slim , fair , tall etc etc” .no one ever writes someone whose wise , good at heart , interesting , I mean theres actually so much to look for and ask for rather than just a Barbie Doll. Then next thing maybe what is the qualification of the perspective of bride or groom , how much he or she earns . I dont denigh that these aspects are not important , of course they are . Practically aspects like financial stability of the spouse is definitely of vital importance. But then what kind of a person is he or she , weather we will be compatible or not , weather we will have good time together or not , no one is just bothered about. I mean this is the last thing in most of  the cases , especially conventional arranged marriages. No one is damn bothered about the inner content of the perspective partner , even if  young people try and talk about compatibilty , most of the guy’s moms will come running and say “oh beta , see her snaps , she looks so beautiful n naive, I am sure she will be good wife , she can cook well also , she is polite in talking also ” .Oh ‘common , how can we decide about our life partners on such criterion.
Especially with girls , a little dark skin or a little flab on the waist are enough good reasons for a “no to marriage” ,no matter how intellegent she is , how good she is at heart. These all things are not worth of a bargain of getting a wife or daugther in law ,whose wait size might be more that her would be husband. Even a big and a beautiful heart is dumped for a slim waist line !!! 
This really call for a toast!!!!!

I am back home

Hi everyone , 
 
This blog of mine is different from the earlier ones ia a way that the Internet connection is very much Indian. Well to say it simply , that I am back in Delhi , back home , after being away for almost 6 months.
So I havnt been able to blog anything since a long time due to the reason  that there were so many things to be done before coming back.
Anyhow one of the best things which happened during these 6 months of being alone n away is nothing else but REDIFF-ILAND . Get introduced to this world has given me a new dimesion in the form of people whom I am connected to basically through thoughts which is so fulfilling . I cant thank u all enough for being there in my world and let me share yours for a while. 

Will blog something soon , till then keep smiling no matter what n yes dont dare to forget me.

Us shikhar mein hissa

 

Yeh vishwass hai mujhe ki yeh rasta sahi hai

Par kyun pehla kadam rakhte hi

patthar mile saath nahin

To laga ki kuch galat to nahin hai

 

Par nahin yahi woh rasta hai ,

Jo sahi hai aur shikhar tak jata hai

Phir samajh mein aya ki

Jin logon ne patthar mara  hai

Woh wahi hai jo kehtein hai

Us shikhar pe haque sirf humara  hai

 

Par mujhe iccha sirf mere shikhar ki hai

Unki bulandiyon se mera koi wasta nahin

Phir bhi jab main us unchayi ki taraf ungli ki aur kaha - woh raha

To kyun unhone us ungli ko morna chaha

 

Khair itna samajhti hun

Ki ungli shayad mur jayegi

Par kadam nahin ,

Iishwar saath hai , yeh janti hun

Khud par bharosa hai yeh manti hun

Kisi ko peeche chorne ka nahin par khud ko aage le jaane ka hai suroor

Isliye patthar pare to bhi aage barungi zaroor

Us shikar per mere liye bhi jagah hai

Isliye apni name plate lagaongi zaroor.

Too much of it

Why the hell are we so supposed to be so much bothered about Abhishek and Aishwarya’s marriage ? Its really frustrating to see such a headline about them, what a damn thing is this , they dont have anything to do with our lives , they dont do any good to us or anyone , accept entertaining us(that also aishwarya is pathetic act)  for that job they get whopping amount most of the times undiserved. What more than that they want , why do they have to peep into everyday’s headlines. Here and there they keep making and breaking even nuptial promises , why I am supposed to keep an account of each n every damn story of theirs . But yes I wont mind reading the news right from  when Aishwarya smiled at Abhishek first till which shaving cream is Abhishek going to use on his Wedding day “if and o nly if they pay me for reading such crap.”.

Is it God or us?

Is it GOD or us?

 

Being here in Tokyo , I come across questions about religion and God  very often .

All of a sudden what I realized is that India boosts of being one of the most religious countries of this cosmos. Well that means in addition to human abilities we have the power of religion, divine faith etc etc. But unfortunately next what knocked my mind was the fact that even in this 21st century we are nowhere near to being a developed country. Forget development half of us are unsure about even about getting the next meal.

 

So who do we blame for this , comparing ourselves from the better nations of the world ,

We arenft short of any natural resources , we have ample of vegetation , smart human brains and that too more than we have asked for .In addition to this  we have gGODh existing for us in all shapes colours and sizes. BUT  we are not even near to comfortable nations like US ,JAPAN , GERMANY , UK , ——————- this is an unending list. So that means our religion has stopped from growing, from asking for better lives for all our selves.

 

Well I guess we have left too much on destiny and God and have been under estimating our own human strengths or may be this way leaving things on God and destiny, is an escape route from working hard. Maybe  we have entrusted too much on him , rather than slogging our way to whatever we want .Why have we forgotten gGod helps those only  who help themselvesh . Why donft we realize that he has empowered us with an intelligence and physical strength to get what we want, rather than merely going to temples and pleading him to grant our wishes? Why its easier for us to fold hands before him than to use those two hands to write an additional report or to make an additional software or to plough another piece of land etc etc.

 

Another thing is of course that isnft it that we spend too much of our time in religious practices .Has God mentioned this is his terms and conditions anywhere . Isnt sincere hard work a better way of praying to God or thanking him. Why is it that taking bath in Ganga can purify us but we cannot help an old person cross a road? We visit the temple twice but we arenft honest to the very next human being. Arenft we gOFF THE MOTIVEh somewhere?

 

I GUESS WE HAVE EVEN LET DOWN GOD!!

HERE COMES 2007

All you Re- landers

So finally Mr.2007 will joining us in a few hours .As all the previous Mr.Years ,Mr.2007 has also make us set our minds  to refresh hopes .
All the dreams n hopes which Mr.2006 did not bother to look at , wishing that Mr.2007 takes good care of them and show them the light of the day as soon as possible. (The reason I used “Mr.” for years is just like men they are also good making and breaking promises , n the worst part is we all still pin hopes to a new year just like any female ,I hope you understand what I am trying to say (Men are funny but women can be funnier )).
Specially for the buddies for whom 2006 was tough n trying i hope 2007 will be smooth and smiling .
For whom 2006 was a blessing ,hope 2007 continues the tradition.


The beginning of a year is important for us only for the reason that infuses a new energy into us , to once again hope for good times ,  to start working even harder ,to look at things from a new angle , to try and recondition our way of thinking , to open doors for new thougts n idea , to challenge challenges in a new manner, to replenish our eneries and get going man , party hard to welcome the new year and then aim higher ,slog harder n yes no matter even if you loose the game , dont loose ur spirit since Mr.2008 is there just the next turn of the road.


(I thought of writing something good to convey my wishes for new year to all of you , But somehow i landed up at a funny buffet of words , I feel .So in case you loose your patience reading the above stuff , read this last “APOLOGETIC PARAGRAPH”.)

Anyways Happy 2007 (in simple words)
