My Paradise

I was travelling by bus, busy playing game on mobile when a drop fell on my cheeks.. startled I looked through the window to find it was drizzling! A thought echoed in my mind "In this fast pace life and super busy schedule we often forget to even admire the beauty of nature".  The sky looked so beautiful..loaded with clouds -at some place dark black, at some other part grey, other sides white with a tinge of orange in it. As the rain gained momentum the scene outside also changed. Some people rushed to find a shade, some roadside kids jumped and played in rain, a few couples walked on the pavement holding hands.they seemed so irrespective and unaware of the changing situation around and I inside the bus held my hands and face out to feel the rain drops. The air filled up with the sweet fragrance of wet mud..It was pure bliss !!!  Nature truly has immense pleasure to offer it only depends on us whether we find time to experience these tiny drop of joy!

You are the person who first experienced my heartbeat ! Bared the excessive pain with a smile to bring me into this world ! Understood my wordless expressions ! Helped me with my first step & first word ! Ran behind me for hours to make me eat ! Patiently listened to my crazy ideas ! Nursed me during my illness ! Guided me to differentiate right from wrong ! Encouraged me to discover my talents ! Motivated me to deliver my best ! Protected me from all odds ! Loved me selflessly for whatever I am ! You make me feel like a princess MA On this Mother's Day I Thank You for Everything ! I feel blessed to be your daughter You and Baba mean the world to me ! I hope and pray I can serve you both as selflessly as you  both have always...

Our maid was terribly unhappy today. While working she constantly blamed God and her sister's misfortune. On asking the reason she burst out "My sister already has two female child and today she delivered the 3rd..She and her damn luck..The husband and her in-laws are very angry..They are planning to leave the child in hospital itself" I was still in bed when her painful shriek reached my ears.. & her statement made me immovable.. My heart pained for the little child who was barely some hours old....innocent & unaware of the world she has landed into.. The people who have brought her to this world wish to abandon her within hours  merely b'coz of the reason that she is a GIRL !!!!!! Where is a girl lagging behind nowadays???? She is excelling in education, competing on same platform with the "So-called superior" men to get job and excelling there as well.. They are managing work with home.. Giving birth to new life and fighting every se

Moral Science classes of childhood and teachings of elders all are becoming meaningless with passage of time..  Life gradually is becoming a game of Chess, where each step has to be taken very cautiously.. Coz U never know your steps may be supervised and some people might be just waiting to find your wrong move to play their turn .. only with the intention of hurting you.. and having fun in the process.. Strange people with their extremely strange thoughts!!!!! these situations puzzles me with a few questions Did we learn those values in order to obtain marks and  forget with passage of time?  How does the innocent minds of yesterday get transformed into devilish minds of today? Why is following path of honesty so difficult ? Why can't people stop interfering in others life? Why are people jealous of a person's progress and happiness? But above all ---- Am I Over -Reacting??????    I don't know whether I am over-reacting or not, but I strongly symp

15th August 1947, a date remembered, cherished and celebrated as a day of independence from British rule. The day is marked by flag hoisting, parades, singing national anthem and playing patriotic songs over all parts of India. This year during Independence day I was lucky enough to be a part and witness the celebration in Kolkata. The Red road was decade in Tri-colours , the whole ambiance was enough to give me goosebumps. The celebration began with hoisting of flag and singing national anthem. After which began the parade, motor bike formation, tableaux display and performance by students of various schools on different patriotic song.  The effort of each and every person to make the celebration worthy was revealed by their performance but, I personally feel its a very small tribute that we can pay to the sacrifice made by the brave sons and daughters of Mother India. Those courageous souls tho didn't think once before sacrificing their life just for the sake that their next ge
