A Nine-gated Palace

Oct 2012 Festive season is here again ! Lots of holidays, shopping, decorations and loads of fun. Days start running when this season of the year comes or it seems natural due to some movements in space and days become short and nights longer. Whatever it may be, things become special and enchanting. Markets display all their products with lots of specialties and heavy discounts. But God only knows if they give genuine cut in prices or its fake to lure the customers. Shopping bags become double in numbers and money vanishes from the purses. During the same period when once I was spending/wasting my husband's wallet in one of the up class markets of metro city I met with a strange incident.  Moving from one shop to the another I was feeling really good, as I purchased few accessories and clothes for myself. Of course ! What do you think? shopping begins with lady of the house and also ends at her fancy. Well ! I also bought some beautiful caricatures and art pieces for my h...

"Find someone who isn't afraid to admit that they miss you. Someone who knows that you’re not perfect, but treats you as if you are. Someone whose biggest fear is losing you. One who gives their heart completely. Someone who says I love you and means it. Last but not the least, find someone you wouldn't mind waking up with you in the morning, seeing your wrinkles and your grey hair but still falls in love with you all over again."

मीठापन जो लाया था मैं गाँव से कुछ दिन शहर रहा अब कड़वी ककड़ी है। तब तो नंगे पाँव धूप में ठंडे थे अब जूतों में रहकर भी जल जाते हैं तब आया करती थी महक पसीने से आज इत्र भी कपड़ों को छल जाते हैं मुक्त हँसी जो लाया था मैं गाँव से अब अनाम जंजीरों ने आ जकड़ी है। तालाबों में झाँक,सँवर जाते थे हम अब दर्पण भी हमको नहीं सजा पाते हाथों में लेकर जो फूल चले थे हम शहरों में आते ही बने बहीखाते नन्हा तिल जो लाया था मैं गाँव से चेहरे पर अब जाल-पूरती मकड़ी है। तब गाली भी लोकगीत-सी लगती थी अब यक़ीन भी धोखेबाज़ नज़र आया ! तब तो घूँघट तक का मौन समझते थे अब न शोर भी अपना अर्थ बता पाया ! सिंह-गर्जना लाया था मैं गाँव से अब वह केवल पत्ते -चबाती बकरी है।

Iss dill ne jo chaha woh hamesha paya hai par tujhe na paane ka dard kahin iss dill mein ठहर  sa gaya hai बुझती  hue कोयले  ppar jo roshni bache hai wahee bahut hote hai umeed kayam rakhne ke liye Pata hai woh बुझ   jayege jaldi he Par woh ek mashaal se kum nahi hai aaj Par kyonचिता  ki ladki ki rakh  par sardi mein haath sekne ka mann hai Par kyon uss ka sardअहसास  aaj bhi garam mahsoos hota hai Is dill ne jo chaha woh hamesha paya hai ! Par क्यों  yeh दिल  aaj bhi wahin ruka hai  जहाँ se tum chale gaye they chup chap... ज़िन्दगी guzar jayege yuun he.... Par woh pal nahi छूटेगा  samay se सदियां beetजायेगा  na hum honge na tum.... magar woh pal wahin hoga खामोश ! chup chaap ! बेआवाज़ !

Warm welcome to all those who are visiting this page. Well its been more than a month I could not write anything. I could not write when negative thoughts of past or bad deeds done in past capture my mind. Well, I am a Buddhism practitioner and these thoughts should not come to my mind. I was reading newspaper today morning, and whenever I see an advertisement I get this burning desire to purchase. There indiatimes.com were selling a very nice wine serving set. I really think of buying it. Saw indiatimes is offering good products n interesting packages Shopping has become a totally different kinda experience now. there were times when once a week or once in 15 days we used to go to shopping to a nice conjusted market with mummy or papa and used to shop lesser what was required. But now its vice versa we shop almost every where and all the time. And shop much much more than what is actual requirement. We can shop online, offline, sales people also come at door step, then there ar...

The fog was awesome today. I have always cherished winters with lots of fog and fragrance of the cold breeze. Trees were at their glorious best. Overall atmosphere was beautiful in the literally sense. While writing this I could realize that I should thank GOD for giving me eyes, nose, ears, legs, arms & heart to cherish all these things which some unfortunate ones are not privileged to enjoy. They are indeed especially able, definitely nature inspires me to work for them and others who are less privileged. This inspires me to write an interesting experience. We always buy a papaya & a Nariyal paani while coming back from the walk. Today while standing nearby Papaya seller, my White Blackberry fell down off my hand and I quickly picked it up. Reflex action, of course. Papita walla bhaiya asked me "Is this is a Blackberry?" We are pleasantly surprised on his question. I said, "Yes." He then said "Yeh phone sabse mahnga hai aur apne gira diya....

A journey called Life ! No matter what, I shall make the difference! 27 th April 2003 Life has its ups and downs. Everyone has. My life is a rollercoaster ride since I married my boyfriend in 2003. We shared the togetherness at every moment and love which I missed pre marriage days. Fortunately or unfortunately he was my only boy friend and then graduated to become my husband. We saw places with each other and all kinds of ups and downs were there in our lives. We went to celebrate our togetherness after marriage without planning it. It was more of an adventure trip rather than romantic  honeymoon. Now we think it was so unsafe to do so. I think when you have kids you become more cautious in everything you do. We went to Railway station without any reservation in the evening of 29 April 2003. On our way we purchased a new photo reel, at that time digital cams were not common. We reached New delhi railway station and boarded the train to Kalka. We reached Kalka which i...
