If I had a time machine....

A close friend approached me to compose a short poem for her four year old little girl's school competition. She gave me a choice between 4 topics and I chose to write on this

 " If I had a time machine..."

The challenge in writing this piece was that I had to write it from the mind of a 4 year old kid....How she will think,,,what all she will have in mind....at the end I thought why not experience it myself.....so I sat on the time machine in my brain and  took a reverse in my memories and reached to my childhood when I was 4 ....then what followed is here.......

                          If I had a time machine  

"If I had a time machine, I will go back to yesterday 

Where I am sleeping like a princess, and yes it is a Sunday .

I am lying on my bed, don't want to wake up,

Not worrying about getting late, as today there is no school bus.

See there is Tom and Jerry my favorite cartoon coming on the TV screen

I am watching it sitting on the sofa and eating Choco  ice cream..

Here comes the time for homework, that I am not in a mood to do,

I do it on a promise from mommy, that she will take me to the zoo.

My friends call me to come down to the park to play

I have been waiting for the evening as it is very hot during the day...

I am back home tired and hungry after an hours' play

Had my dinner and with daddy now I play 

Now time for bed and mommy's bed time stories

and I am in sleep now dreaming of fairies....

The alarm clock raises the alarm ,mommy wakes me up 

i hear her voice saying  "get ready baby you will get late for the school bus "

I so wish I had the time machine..."

HAVING YOU AS A SISTER

                                                     On this day my heart just sings,
                                                     A sister like you is truly a blessing.

She protects you and holds you so tight,

And stops you from doing what is not
right.

Takes care of everything that you like,

Whether it is a dress, a movie or a joy ride.

Becomes a mother when the parents are out,
Can find you even when you are hiding amidst the crowd.


She comforts you in the best way she can,
She is the one on whome you always depend   

Thank you GOD for blessing me with two

They are the best and their love so true

My sisters are my joy and my source of inspiration

I look upto them and they encourage me with motivation

It is great to have sisters and experiencing sisterhood is amazing .In a sister you finds a friend, a companion to a lonely soul, a mother, a teacher, a guide and a confidante. You can go and watch a movie with her, you can shop and fight over clothes with her and you can pull her legs also. I mean you can share almost anything with your Sister.

My elder sister is now married for almost three years but we still share every secret, clothes and likes and dislikes with each other. She is still the same. She is far though but we never feel the distance as we are constantly in touch. It was her birthday yesterday and a day to celebrate and yet another idea for my blog post..my loving tribute to my sisters.My younger one fights with me, bullies me but loves me a lot.

I am sure all of you will be having a sister who cares for you, fights for you and with you, shop and walk with you and most importantly listens to you and guides you. There is a saying “What's the good of news if you haven't a sister to share it? “

When sisters stand shoulder shoulder, who stands a chance against us?

HUMSE PANGA MAT LENA…..GO SAY THANK YOU AND LOVE YOUR SISTER AND BUY HER A GIFT SHE WOULD LOVE…..

The Black Wednesday - a day every India would never forget

On this INDEPENDENCE DAY this is my tribute to all the victims of Terrorism ....maytheir souls rest in peace

The Black WEDNESDAY

(26/11/08)

The recent terror strike in Mumbai has left many questions unfolded,

Will India take some action against terrorism or still want to be aloof and remain haunted.

Many more attacks, many more deaths and many more losses,

The loss that is not restricted to a class but which has effects on the masses.

There are emergency meetings and everybody plays a blame game,

Nothing constructive happens; the situation still remains the same.

terrorists have no religion and know no relation,

The one sole aim in their mind is mass destruction.

The Taj Hotel, The Oberoi and The Nariman House are Mumbai’s Pride,

Now standing witnessing the terror of that ghostly dark night

 

.

It will be remembered in the History of India as Black Wednesday,

As It brought death to many innocent; it was certainly a cursed day.

A Three day ordeal ended with blood all over and loss of many lives

Many are left alone without their children or their wives.

Their grief and sorrow is far behind our imagination,

But we can console them by taking some immediate action.

The time has come to open our eyes,

And to hear all those deadly cries.

‘God almighty’ will give us the strength to fight

Against those who are behind such ghostly nights.

Dedicated to Mumbai attack victims

TO LOVE IS TO LIVE........

To Love is to Live and to beleive that love is the most amazing feeling that makes us the person we are....      

"We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. Where every sense is heightened, every emotion is magnified, our everyday reality is shattered and we are flying into the heavens. It may only last a moment, and hour, an afternoon. But that doesn't diminish its value. Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives."


The cupid can stuck anyone anytime and blesses two souls chosen to be in love..you will not know as to why you fell in love but after experiencing love you will never want to know..you will wish to be in love till the last breath.

A beautiful Thought......

If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn’t choose to rest in the other person’s heart.

If you find someone else in love with you and you don’t love him/her, feel honored that love came and called at your door, but gently refuse the gift you cannot return. Do not take advantage, do not cause pain.


How you deal with love is how you deal with you, and all our hearts feel the same pains and joys, even if our lives and ways are different.


If you fall in love with another, and he/she falls in love with you, and then love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or to assess blame, let it go. There is a reason and there is a meaning. You will know in time.


Remember that you don’t choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life.

Feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit. Give it to the world around you in any way you can.


That is where many lovers go wrong. Having been so long without love, they understand love only as a need. They see their hearts as empty places that will be filled by love, and they begin to look at love as something that flows to them rather than from them.


The first blush of new love is filled to overflowing, but as their love cools, they revert to seeing their love as need. They cease to be someone who generates love and instead become someone who seeks love. They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift, and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away.


Remember this, and keep it to your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and its own reason for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it or reason it into staying.

You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do.

Love always has been and always will be a mystery. Be glad that it came into your life, even if only for a moment.

So LOVE and LIVE..:):)     .................BECAUSE IT WILL TAKE YOU TO HEAVEN....  KEEP LOVING....

....LIFE IN A METRO.....

The day started as usual with my journey to office .It started from Home to metro station and then to bus and finally my workplace.It was more crowded in metro today than normal days making it unusual for a weekend...I was wondering what the hell is happening,,,i was standing amidst the crowd waiting to board the already stuffed metro .I was not willing to board this one but the crowd took me inside the metro and got me out of it..i made no effort but the public did....

...OFFICE...

Office was hectic as always on thursdays and Fridays (being production days),but the thought that  have to go late tomorrow was pushing me ahead...It was more hot and humid today ...thanks to rain god who is not showing his benevolence to Delhites...we are still waiting for heavy rains and MONSOON....come soon...

The day ended with routine office work and  boarded my chartered bus back to home..thankfully it started drizzling by the time i reached home...but to no use to us..it has made the weather more humid and hard to bear...

While i am writing this i m also feeling good to see so many comments on my first post on my own blog...
thanks to all loved ones for appreciating my effort....

"HAVE A NICE WEEKEND AND ENJOY AND SLEEP WELL"

Masti ki pathshaala...yaroon ye dosti badi hi haseen hai....

COLLEGE MEMORIES

                                    Today when I recollect the memories of the college,

Comes in my mind that building with two different passages.

The very first day in the college, a whole new world to enter,

I still remember that amphitheatre in the center

.A class divided into two alphabetically, separating us into two sections,

The Economic Times that used to give us a lot of tension.

                                     Those professors and lecturers who use to teach us,

The morning journey that used to begin with 978 bus.

How to forget two best places, the canteen and the ground,

Like a hustling, bustling street full of sound.

Those mass bunks, which used to end up watching a movie

Oh----the joy of those days I miss truly.

Those studious friends of mine, with attendance that counts up to 99

All the faculty members and staff who were so nice and kind.

               My Gang had divya, saurabh and me…. we three were always seen together,

Out of us saurabh was the most naughty, I was a bit reserved and sincere,

Divya had all the fun and always use to cheer.

Those events, conferences and corporate days on Saturday,

“Come!! Attendance is compulsory”-everyone use to say.

                                      The trimester pattern of exam was the worst part,

A trimester use to finish before it starts.

                                         Amidst the assignments, tests and case studies,

The summer training got over and came the time of worries.


First year went with all the fun and lessons,

We entered in our second year and the next session.


 It was the crucial one,

As we had to chose our area of specialization.

                                                   By the end of it everyone got placed,

All of us got jobs and get engaged to busy days.

                                        Two years of My Post Graduation went too fast,

Now I am working and it was the tale of my past.

                                                  Though those days are no more here,

But the memories of them will last forever.

SO guys and gals live and njoy each moment of life fully as this time will fly but memories of those beautiful moments will always stay  in your hearts......"LIVE AS IF YOU ARE GOING TO DIE TOMMOROW"
