You DON'T Have to be Poor to become Famous!!

Ola!

We have heard of so many stories, of less fortunate people, struggling and fighting through life. and they become famous and stars. Their stories are shared everywhere as a motivational tool. Okay! I agree..they did have to work hard, and they did accomplish something worthwhile. Shahrukh Khan, Amitabh Bacchan, Steve Jobs and many more are in the same league.

Then comes another category of people, who were born fortunate and did not have to run behind their passions. They got a kickstart. Kareena Kapoor, Mukesh Ambani, Jamsetji Tata are in this league. They did get a kick start, but their success is their own, else they would have ended like Abhishek Bacchan.

Then their is yet another category of people, the middle class..the struggling yet fortunate. Born in a family of passions, but different kind. Deepika Padukone, Agatha Christie, Shakespeare are in this league..These people follow their passions, and succeed, in spite of the resistance from their family. Though they do have a safety cushion in place.

I feel, that these people are more prone to failures..They need more motivation!! How?? Any Suggestions?

Ghazal

rawan dawan hai ye kaarwan kaisa,
chala ja raha hai ye musafir kaisa..

jab manzil ki nahin hai khabar,
to phir raahon ka fasana kaisa..

khatm hona hai safar maut ke darwaaze par,
phir chain-o-sukun ko lutana kaisa..

bikhri hai khushbu phulon ki manind,
yahi hai tamanna to phir ghabrana kaisa..

kisi chalte hue bacche se poochiye,
gir k uthne mein hai maza kaisa..

chala gaya hai ahmad wo tujhe chodh kar..
to usey yaad kar, ye aansu bahana kaisa..

Be A Hunky Girl!!

So for past few days, I have been observing the world around me..Yes! The world where women are still suppressed..

The world where male domination still means "physical domination"..may be rape, domestic abuse, or other kinds of sexual abuses.

This male domination is not just about sexual assaults..its also that men over power women by using physical pressure. May it be your parent or husband or a stranger.

Men know..to hit right across the cheek to over power a woman.

Since now, they cant supress you with their intellect anymore..that era is long gone. So this is the "New Domination"

The only way to get through this era..is to get physically strong..Be a Hunk. Train yourself to bear physical pain( coz hey..emotionally we are way stronger)!!

"Simple Maths"

When we die..our soul leaves our body..and instead of being a person we become "a body" or "mayyat" or "mitti"..

If you do simple maths..it means..that we are not our body..we are what our soul is..

So, by that definition..Nashee is not fat or thin..she cant be beautiful or ugly..she is not tall or short..

She may be happy or sad..she may be tired..frustrated..satisfied..

But she cant be dark or fair..she juz cant be..

its simple Maths!!!

ज़िन्दगी की भाग दौड़ में..अक्सर हम खुद को कहीं पीछे छोड़ आते हैं।
अपनी ख्वाहिशो क पीछे भागते भागते हम अपने आप को ग़ायब कर लेते हैं। ना...दुनिया की नजरो से नहीं..खुद की नरज़ो से ओझल हो जाते हैं हम..
हम ये भूल जाते हैं..की ऊपर कोई है..सर्वशक्तिमान..जो हमारी कहानी लिख रहा है..फिर क्यों हम अंधाधुंध भागते जाते हैं..
क्यों किसी और को सजा देने क बहाने..हम खुद को ही सजा सुना देते हैं..ग़लतियो पे ग़लतिया करते जाते हैं..और फिर उन ग़लतियो को सुधरने न पाने की वजह से..अपने आप से नफरत करने लगते हैं।
सफ़र कोई भी हो..ख़त्म होता है। मंज़िल मिलती ही है..चाहे जितना समय लग जाये। फिर हम क्यों बेसब्रो की तरह, उल्टा दौड़ते हैं।
काश क हम में इतना सब्र होता।काश क हम ऊपर वाले के निर्णय का इंतज़ार करते।
तब हमारी कहानी..बचपन वाली राजकुमारी जैसे होती।
काश।

Throw back!

I looked out the window. The sky was blue and beautiful. People were enjoying the weather. I looked at the sky, felt like it would rain. And then a cold breeze flew through my hair. It felt awesome. It felt like monsoon crossing your whole body. I closed my eyes..and felt the air pass through me. I breathed it in. I could feel the cold in me..
She enjoyed the rain..she really did..no one knew how to embrace the weather more than her..she would dance in d rain..enjoy the wind..and winter..and summer..she was so full of life..
I picked up my mobile phone..and played that song..the song that reminded me so much of her..we watched it together..that movie...aah.... wat a beautiful day..what a beautiful movie..Love Aaj Kal..to this day i can imagine the whole time i was with her every time I listened to that song..
I plucked the earphones in my ear..and played that song...Aaj Din Chadhya..and closed my eyes.............

Mirage of Life!

Have you noticed how you feel more hungry, when there are people eating food around you.
Have you noticed, how you feel overweight, when you are with the slimmest, sexiest people..or vice versa ;)
Have you noticed how you feel ugly, when on an outing with beautiful people.

The point is..that you feel deprived, when you are around people, who have things that you want, or may be, just dont have.

You see your friend getting married and suddenly, you want to get married too.

You see poeple relying on materialistic things, you suddenly start craving for that over priced gown you saw on the dummy.

But is it OK to feel that?? Or is it, yet another mirage of life.

"A common girl"

It was the darkest phase of her life. The soul mate whom she waited for..for a long time was not "The one" any more. She felt aloof..consumed from within, she was afraid of her deepest darkest desires. She wanted to ruin "her" day. Her mind planned on strategies to destroy "her".

She was jealous,
jealous that "she" took her place.
jealous of all the attention "she" was getting, although, in her mind, she deserved it.
jealous, that "she" was getting "her" life settled, before she could even begin.
Jealous that "she" was wanted by them.

Jealous that even though she was in love, "she" was the one marrying the love of "her" life.

Jealous that "she" was happy. and afraid that she might never get her happy ending.

She prayed..prayed for solace and peace of mind, but nothing helped.

she had good heart, good humor, she cared. she loved. she laughed. she made others laugh.She was good with everyone. She had awesome friends. people loved her. She had warm nature and lovely smile.
She was amazing with her family too.

What went wrong???
NOTHING..
.its just that she was a COMMON GIRL.

The Rape Survivor!

She got up..perhaps she never slept..she lukd at the sky outside..beautiful and dark..sun was about to rise..bright in the sky..she smiled at the first light of the sun..something lit up..in her heart..a ray of hope..It was a new day!
She freshened up..made some breakfast..tea..went out to her job..as she entered the office..all faces turned towards her..she felt the gazes on her back..but she chosed to ignore them..instead she smiled..and exchanged pleasantries..she sat on her desk..and saw the newspaper..something broke in her heart..
She ran to the rest room..tried to control her tears..she succeeded!
The day passed by..she finished all her work..and went back home..she opened the door to an empty house..no voices..silence all around..she took a deep breath..trying to control her tears again..and succeeded again..she made some pasta..watched TV..den she went to bed..
All alone..she realised..no one to share her feelings..no one to tell the days stories..life was difficult..she cried herself to sleep..

She got up again..the shining rays of sun..gave her hope..again..and she went to work!

She was NOT a rape VICTIM..
She was a rape SURVIVOR!

Gender Equality!

They all talk about gender equality..do we have gender equality?? Is it equality, if the girls are allowed to do what dey wish to..i dont thnk so..

In my opinion, equality will not be achieved..untill the movies start promoting men in vest and underwear, rather than women.

Equality will only be achieved, when men get scared of walking alone at night.

It will only be achieved, when men walk in their vests on the road and girls whistle at them..when men wear their underwears and girls stare at their "thing"

It will only be achieved when, strip clubs hire men..and women pay to get a lap dance..

It will be achieved when these so called "comedy movies" stop portraying women as fools..instead they do it to men..and project them as sex objects..

That is when we can really say, that equality is bring achieved!!

Acceptance and Tolerance..

Dey say we are hindu or we are muslims..did you know that all religion preach one sermon..some might say "the sermon of love", perhaps true, but dats not what dis is about..today i write something different.. Something that will make us believe the true sanctity of our prayers..

I DARE the muslims to say OM, in the proper way, in the way dats its meant to be said..deep breaths and from.the bottom of your neck..in deep and loud voice..and eyes closed...wat do u feel??dis u feel an energy inside you??did you feel, as you breathed in, dat all your negativ energies, all your carbondioxides are coming out..and after sayng it..did u feel energised?? Well u did..if u said it in proper way..why do u thnk dat is?? You dnt belive in that..u r a muslim..............

Now as for my hindu frenz..i DARE u to do sajdah..in a proper way..the way its meant to be..and breath while u r in sajdah..n thnk about ur problems..ponder on it..find an easy way to get thru it..wat did u feel?? Did u feel relaxed..and patient..were u able to clear ur head??did sajdah help u reach a clarity..well it did..if u did ut d ryte way..why do u thnk dat is?? U dnt belive in dat..u r a hindu.........

The reason is that both the methods of praying are meant to help.the people gain satisfaction and patience..

Now ask urself..y dis discrimination???y this hatred..juz bcz i do sajdah n u say om..duznt make me ryte n u wrng..or vice versa..

Spread Acceptance and Tolerance..

Pyaar, Ishq aur Mohabbat!!

Did you know the difference between Pyaar, Ishq aur Mohabbat..

Well, philosophers have argued and argued and never came to a unanimous decision. So here is something, I came up with...

Say the above three words, slowly (like a slow motion shot in movies)..
Wat do you notice??
While saying Pyaar and Mohabbat..your lips touch each other, even though for a short while..Do u know y??well..its because, for these two u need a partner..you need someone else..its a two person emotion..needs to be reverted back, if not... IT DIES!

While Ishq is above all this..you just adore someone or something...no returns..no expectations...you need any result..and u dnt need to prove it...it shows..in your eyes..and it LIVES forever!

Friends & Foes

Coins have two sides, we have learnt this since we were kids. Nobody told us, people do too..
We were so innocent as kids, we saw things black and white. There was no grey..but now there are like 50 shades of grey..
We saw people as good and bad, as friends and as foes. Now there are friends who are foes and foes who are friends.
There were cunning and cheats, now there are diplomats and double faced.
Tired of seeing diplomacy all around me.
Tired of people pretending to like each other, when they actually hate.
Tired of watching people put there watsapp status and fb posts, pretending that they care and like..while as soon as they turn around, they would do anything to bash their friends.

nahin khabar mere humsafar,ye raaste le jaayen kahan
abhi jo saath hain chal rahe,shaam ko theher jaayen kahan..
aa yun hi saath chal ke, zindagi guzar len
kal jo bichad gaye hum, phir mile jaane kahan..
ye jo ishq hai ajeeb hai, milwa de khuda se bhi
aur jo akela kar de ye, phir na jaane le jaaye kahan..
na paa saka tujhe ahmad magar,
juda kar de hamein, aisa koi insaan kahan..

Sirf tum!

कभी कभी मैं सोचती हूँ, क्यों ज़िन्दगी इतनी मुशकील सी हो गयी है। तम्हारे साथ गुज़ारे लम्हे क्यों मुझे परेशां करते हैं। सोचते सोचते ट्रेन का वो सफ़र याद आता है जिसमें मैं और तुम हसते हस्ते रो पड़े थे। जिसमें वो ग़ज़ल सुनते सुनते हमारा सफ़र कब कटा पता ही नहीं चला।
अजीब सी ख्वाहिशें हैं, हर करवट बदल सी जाती हैं। कभी तुम्हारा साथ, कभी तुम्हारी बातें और कभी तुम।
मौसम की तरह तुम्हारा बदलना, हस्ते हस्ते गुस्सा हो जाना, अपनी बातों से खुद ही पलट जाना, इन सब बातों की आदत से हो गयी है।
तनहा चलते चलते पलट जाती हु मैं जैसे तुमने आवाज़ दी हो, पलट के देखती हु तो सिर्फ तन्हाई दिखती है।
क्यों, आखिर क्यों ज़िन्दगी इतनी खली हो गयी है। और क्यों कोई तुम जैसा नहीं मिलता?

हाँ। आज मान लिया मैंने, मोहब्बत ही गयी है तुमसे..सिर्फ तुमसे :)

The end of The Road

Journey of life, starts at one end and ends at another end. And the traveller can see the end provided he/she keeps his/her eyes open.

But we tend to just see the crowd, the people, the disturbances, the small kaccha roads that are actually cuts, that juz make the journey longer. And we forget, that no matter what road we take, no matter how much we try to prolomg our journey, the end is certain and decided. We dont prolong our journey, we just take a even shorter road.

And when you realise that, that is when you actually bow down to God. You pray for success, not juz on this road, but the road hereafter. You pray for your fellow travellers. You pray for your loved ones. You pray for those who have already crossed the line from here to the after world. You pray for those who will come after you.

And that is when you actually prolomg your journey. That is when you find solace.
That is when you see the end of the road!

Scared!

You have scared me. From the first day we have been together, all you have done is scare me.
You scared me, when you asked me out.
You scared me, when you called me and asked me to come on my balcony, and you had a rose in your hand.
You scared me, when we sat on the stairs of our canteen, and you left that last piece of tikki for me.
You scared me, when you held my hand for the first time in college corridors.
You scared me, when we went for that pizza I was craving for.
You scared me, when just to make me smile, you pretended that you didnt know how to use fork and knife.
You scared me, when you kissed me on my nose, and told me I had a small nose ;)
You scared me, when you were persistent about having me in your life, even when I wanted to leave you.
You scared me, when you tolerated all my tantrums and mood swings.
You scared me to death when you said you loved me. And you have scared me everyday since.
You scared me, when you said I was beautiful, on my worst days.
And last night, when you asked me to marry you, i was scared the most.

Never would hav anyone loved being scared that much.
But

I DO!

Dark Love!

"The moment I saw you, I knew you were mine. The way you bent your head, when you talked to me. The way your eyes were piercing my heart and mind. I knew, in that moment, that I can be no one's but yours."

"And you are mine. Every breath, every smile, hell...Every DNA of yours is mine. And dont you dare think or say or imply otherwise. I LoVE YoU with all my heart. I have given you every thing of my life. I have written your name, on each breath I take. I am wholly yours. And i intend to make you mine. Each drop of my blood is for you. Dont you dare doubt me. Because I will prove it to you. I will drain my body of blood, untill you see..untill you believe me. And untill you say yes to marry me. And untill you spend the end of eternity with me. We will be togeder forever."- She said.

He laughed and turned around, and went away.
Next morning, he read it in newspaper.

The Science of Love!

What is Love?
When we meet someone, our brain sends out signals, hormones, and we decide that we like that person.
But are we really sure that its d person, that causes the hormonal rush?
We fall in love many times in our short life. Sometimes it goes thru, sometimes it duznt.
How is it that many people cause the same rush?
Is it an individual thing? Or is it an idea?
I personally feel love for someone, at various times. I may feel detached to the same person, and in just another moment, I might feel love for that person. So, its perhaps an idea in my mind. Whenever and whoever fits my imagination of the perfect Love. I feel love, for that person.

Research suggests that, we tend to be in relationship with those who fit more than 70% into our mind's criteria.
Crazy isnt it?
But beautiful and hopeful at the same time.

HE doesnt love you back..dnt worry, someone else will fit into the criteria you have subconciously set for yourself.

Juz keep your mind open!
