Standing at a traffic square..

A friend of mine and I were riding on a bike today noon.

Standing at a traffic square in the heat I stared on the right side.

Glanced for a while longer and SIGH!!

I asked my friend, “Yaar ladko ko girlfriend mil kaise jati hai re?” [“How do guys get a girl friend?”*in a frustrated manner*]

He was not listening and then turned his head to me and said,

“Tere ko pata hai, main yahi baat tujhe puchne wala tha” [“You know what, I was thinking of asking the same question to you”]

And then I saw why did he say that?

On his left side,there were 3 couples riding in different two-wheeler.

And on my right side, there were 2 such couple 😉

It’s obvious that all the 5 may or may not be couples but still they were in the presence of girls 😀

And then the traffic signal turned green and we raced onward as usual.

These kind of frustration comes at rocket speed and goes at a pace of a tortoise 😉

What’s your arrival and departure speed of frustration? And if you are never frustrated, then YOU’RE AWESOME! 😀

P.S. : Today is Ganesh Chaturthi in India. We celebrate this day in the honor of Lord Ganesha.

P.P.S. : Today’s choice for the song is Classic by MKTO. This song was first recommended by a friend of mine 😉

Frequency of inspiration..

Read about an atomic nucleus?
It has protons
And electrons and neutrons
I don’t know about
Any recent discovery made
So each nucleus is the replica
Of our big, humongous universe
You agree?
Great! Thank you!
Similarly, we ourselves
are replicas of God
Or the super power
We believe in
Because we got
IMMENSE power within ourselves
Wanna know how?
Think about your heart ache
Think about the demise of your close one
Think about the injury you suffered
Think about the frustration
Think about the anger
Think about the irritation
And also the solitude
And still you are here
You are alive
You faced it
You SURVIVED!
Did anyone help you?
Yes, of course
Who?
Friends, families
Books, smiles
Strangers even
But don’t forget
You helped yourself
You inspired yourself
This feeling came from within
From that heart
From that soul
Which is like a nucleus
A very small part
Of this big, humongous world
But still a replica
And irrespective of the size
All are tuned to the same frequency
Frequency of inspiration
We don’t know who is being inspired
By seeing the smile on our faces
By seeing how we are facing dire situations
Still we are leaving impact
These impacts
Gives rise to inspiration
But you need to have it from within
To see it
To feel it
To match the frequency
To replicate it
To spread it
To evolve yourself
And also the others
Difficult? I know
Impossible? C’mon!
I never thought, I would be writing something
And people would be reading my work
But here we are
I never thought, 400 people would be following me
But here we are
I never thought, I would be Who I am
But here we are
So, accept who you are
And inspire others
And automatically, you will be inspired
You will be evolved
You will be You
Who you ALWAYS wanted to be
Also satisfied by what you become 🙂

I WAS GIVEN THE TOPIC: “REFLECTION”

Stressed

Bumped

Nothing coming to mind

Not regarding the topic given

Or any othet topic

And this is what I wanted

Numnbess in my mind

STOP!!

Blank

Not even a single hiss

Dark Silence

Go home

Change in environment

Can I ever show my true face

How I feel at a moment??

In office, no I cant show frustration

At home, no I cant show tension

All I gotta do is

Show a good smiling face

Which really looks good

And is appreciated by others

But do I appreciate it?

Isnt there no onw

Who can read what my eyes reflect?

I have heard

that eyes are the window to our Soul

So somebody or anybody can see

the reflection of my

Scared fearful soul

But why cant they see?

I ask myself,

Then this Dark Silence

comes & whispers to me

That becasue they are also

Waiting for someone to

See the reflection

Of their haunting soul

And then I understand

That Someone undersntads you

IFF you try to understand them

And so this reflection

Can be understood

If the other person

Really wants to know

The happenings of your life..

IFF = If & only If

Time- 7:30

Now your topic: “Life without WordPress”

I hope you enjoy completing this challenge, as I did. Good day!

It all came down on me at once..

It was raining when I left office

Had a stressed day

Was in an arguement with my senior

But then apologised and patched things up

But still, I shouldn’t had yelled at him

There I was in the bus

All wet from the rain

Sudden rainfall and you’re heavy

Thankfully got seat in the bus

And that too window was not being closed

And that was the last available empty seat

Rested my ass and exhaled

Closing my eyes and reminiscing the happenings of today

I have to control my tongue

Anger was correct I know that

And it was more irritation and frustration

And so and so

Went down the memory lane looking at the rain outside

How I have reached here, drenched and frustrated

And there it was, everything right in front of me

All the good days, bad days, ugly days

And time just flew away all in a flash

One blink of an eye and I was deserted

As if I was left behind, far behind

And all others, everyone have gone forward at lightning speed

It not only made me sad and devastated but also happy for all

As atleast they are doing good with their lives

I was left staring at my own reflection on the window glass

Which was dirty, misty and that blurred reflection said it all

Just then a drop of tear fell from my eye

And in the window reflection, I saw it’s course down my cheek to edge of the lip to the chin

And pretended(mostly to myself) that something entered my eye

Due to this windy raining evening

And when I saw if someone caught me shedding that one tear

I saw that no on was there for me or atleast looking at me

All were occupied with their own troubles or the temporary phase of happiness

And then I reached my stop

Gathered my bag, excused myself till the exit

And was down again in the rain and all drenched.
