When stars thought to take a walk on this planet

Standing next to the vast lake,
Flying into my world of dreams...
When the sun is about to go to sleep,
Bidding a good night to all...
When the moon got up from a long nap,
Wishing a good morning to everyone...
I look at the dazzling buildings across,
Surrounding the lake from all the sides...
The lights glittering from the structures around,
The lights peeking from the windows all over...
I feel like all the stars have come down on this planet,
Perhaps they got bored out there in the sky...
And they thought to take a walk on this earth,
And they are all here making the whole planet glitter...
Making the whole earth shimmer and dazzle,
What an astonishing view it is...
What an amazing experience it is,
To witness all the stars twinkling in front of your eyes...
And then I was bought back to my real world suddenly,
By the unpleasant sounds the hustle bustle behind somewhere...
All the stars suddenly went back to the sky safe to their homes,
And the tall building again started glittering far away across the lake...
I begged my heart and mind to drag me to that world again,
But how could they? how could they do that?..
How could they ignore those furious sounds around,
How could they let go with the unpleasant noise all over...
I wish I could somehow ignore all that was going around,
And get transferred to my own world of imagination again...

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...
