A little on the philosophical side...


This one's gonna be long..
When it comes to reading anything philosophical I don't, I find it rather boring. On the contrary I'll do a lot of philosophical talking! I like it I guess, my way, not others'. Weird.

 Anyway moving on, personally I feel there is no such thing as luck. There's fate. Fate decides how you are born and how you will die. Everything in the middle, that we call 'life' is up to us. We can make the best use of it, we can make little use of it, or we can make no use of it at all. The two extremities are unlikely to happen in a normal person's life.(I am a normal person!) Some people believe in luck a lot, because you see, luck works for them. It does't for me, the way it does for them.

 I was born in this amazing colony and I lived my life comfortably for the first 15 years. But it was after my 10th grade that our family(out of everyone else's) was to be shifted to a new place. That wasn't luck, that was merely an incident meant to happen. My dad has a Govt. job. Transfers happen, you need to bear with them. Only I resented it because I had the most memorable, cherishable, the happiest, the saddest moments ever in that environment. Well everyone who has lived there and left the colony at some point of time, do miss it, but you can't stay there forever! Only I moved on a little earlier than the others. In my last few months in the colony, I still kept my hopes up to see some miracle happen that would postpone our transfer or cancel it entirely, but well it never did. So we shifted to this new place, and had a hard time adjusting in the new environment, but eventually did. Life is all about adjusting anyway! There were days when I used to regret coming here badly and there were days I used to accept it and be happy about it.

 Coming here did one thing that the colony didn't, our entire family relationship improved(not that it wasn't good before, but better once we came here). We got to know a lot about each other that we didn't know before(of course mum knew everything over there too but I got to know a lot about her). We became stronger as a family(even though my sister did't stay with us, we talked to each other on the phone thrice a day! Without fail!).

 So I just want to say that change happens in everyone's life. Life changes every single day, every passing hour. Accept the change and move on, because well you have to! Change is good! :)

 Sorry for the boring post but I really had to write it down somewhere...

Someone...

I may not be as smart as you, Or as brilliant as you. I may not be the leader you expect me to be, Nor can I inspire the world like you do. I may not earn the respect that you found, Or the success that your elder daughter reaped. I may never reach that zenith of dedication, I may not be what you expected of me. But why sugar coat? Perhaps, I am none of these things. Not smart enough. Not dedicated enough. Not successful enough. I am none of these things. But I choose to believe, I am more than them. I am someone who endures all that is thrown at her. Someone who has actually seen failure. Someone who has fell. Someone, who has herself learnt to get up. Someone who cries herself to sleep, Only to wake up the next day and help you smile. Someone who longs to see your eyes full of pride, Even when you refuse to look at her. I am someone who has found light in the shadows. I reach beyond the confines of your expectations. I am more t...

The Girl Next Door

They were best friends since kindergarten, Playing with mud and dogs in the garden, He pulled her hair and tripped her everywhere, She just stood there and stared; Her wide button like eyes, Trying to figure out his mischievous guise, His round chubby hands, Working out his new plans. She would help him with homework and lend him notes, He would tease her all day until he got bored, Then a day came by, When he looked her in the eye, And told her why, He had fallen high, For a girl he couldn’t deny. And as her eyes glittered with joy, She found him turn around and coy, Not to the smile that stood in front of him, But the one that three rows apart shimmed. He confessed his love and made her swore, The best friend remained true to her core, She just remained, The Girl Next Door.

Diwali in Mandi!

This was a complete unplanned trip! We got around 4-5 days off for Diwali and most of us girls decided to stay and sulk in hostel, except the ones staying in Himachal. Friday morning, Vidisha shakes me up from my sleep and says, " Pack your bags! We are going to Mandi!" I was half asleep when she dragged me down to the office to get the outpass form( I didn't even brush!) We came back, did all the morning chores, and started packing. Our bus left at 12:30. We reached just in time, one minute late and we would have missed it. And what a journey it was! It took 5 hours to reach Mandi, with me gasping the entire time seeing the picturesque hills and valleys. The step(or terrace) farming they do in hilly terrains look so beautiful, you just can't take your eyes off them! view on the way to Mandi Mandi is situated in a valley through which the river Beas flows. The town in situated on either side of the peaceful river. Mandi has 81 temples which also gives it anoth...
