Missing the days, the beautiful old days

Was really missing my school days today! And then, I just penned down few lines. Sharing with you all, hope you like them:

Missing the days, the beautiful old days,
When life was a wonderful maze...
The days when I just had no fear,
Only dad’s scolding used to bring me to tears...
The days when I used to be the richest person, that’s not a lie,
My boats swam in waters and my planes touched the sky...
The days when I needed no reason to smile,
Without purpose it used to go for many a mile...
The days when disappointment was a word so rare,
For worldly things, I used to hardly care...
The days when I had time to lay down under the stars,
In my world, I was Hitler, I was Mussolini and I was The Czar...
The days when I used to wait for helicopters to fly in the sky,
So that I could leap and jump and bid them bye...
The days when words like hatred and vengeance were unknown,
Smile, love, laughter, care: only they existed in my perfect zone...
The days when school bag, dolls and dreams were my only possession,
I had the courage to do anything without any fear of regression...
The days when nothing was shallow and hollow,
It was just my heart which I used to follow...
The days when my only dream was to fly high in the sky,
Wished to have wings, through the clouds I could fly...
The days when I made excuses to skip my meals,
How badly I wish the time to roll back, if it had wheels...
The days when mom’s arms used to hug me,
To get to this life, I had to pay that as a fee...
Missing the days, the beautiful old days,
When life was a wonderful maze!

Keep smiling and stay blessed:)

Dear Myntra and Flipkart, thanks for snatching away my freedom!

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”  ―  Charlotte Bront├л ,  Jane Eyre I am an avid Shopaholic, a compulsive one! At times, I feel this is some kind of a disorder I am going through. The moment my salary is credited into my account, I start shopping! And within the first week, I am broke, I am left with no bones! And the rest of the month goes in waiting for the next salary! Its like my wallet has a hole. I guess it has... Anyways, boom of the online shopping sites have actually galvanised this disorder, much to my disdain. The moment I get little time in office, at home or for that matter anywhere on this planet, I just open my laptop and start browsing, drooling over the thousands and thousands of pretty shoes, dresses, accessories, just craving to see them in my wardrobe! I just always open these sites with an idea, rather a very clear one of 'window shopping' but then, in the middle I don't know wh...

The transformation of an arranged marriage to a love one!

“If I get married, I want to be very married.”  ― Audrey Hepburn Arranged marriages: Lets look at what wikipedia says about it: Arranged marriage is a type of marital union where the bride and groom are selected by a third party rather than by each other. It was common worldwide until the 18th century. Wait a second, does that say '18th century'. Yes, it indeed does. The world has moved on, and we, Indians are stuck, stuck in between a combat. A fight of deciding where to go, which side to choose and whom to follow: our old traditional culture or the west.  Anyways, arranged marriages still accounts for an overwhelming majority of marriages that happens on our land. Though we do celebrate love, but only in movies and we are doing that since last 4 decades, but when it comes to applying it literally, it suddenly becomes a stigma! Love marriages are still considered a taboo in major parts of our society. Anyways, I am definitely not here to mak...

Can you? Will you?

“People don’t like love, they like that flittery flirty feeling. They don’t love love - love is sacrificial, love is ferocious, it’s not emotive. Our culture doesn’t love love, it loves the idea of love. It wants the emotion without paying anything for it." ―  Matt Chandler Probably this is true and I actually believe in it very strongly. It's not love what people look out for - its jus that infatuation, those butterflies in the stomach, that excitement, that thrill, that desperation, that anticipation. Actually more than half of the love stories meet an unpleasant and terrible end, the moment all this enthusiasm and drama is gone from a relationship. Sad! but true. We no more (not generalizing), have those 'forever' happy afters. We no more have those relationships with the promise of being together for 7 births.  We don't even understand this word we use so frequently, called ‘Love’... its just not an emotion, its just not a feeling. It's beyond t...
