Think twice before....

As the title of the post itself conveys the matter in question i need not prepare a background for the things i want to share. Being judgmental is no crime. In fact, its your own analysis and verdict about every YES-NO or  To Be-Not To Be situations which makes you fit for survival. After all, who else can decide better for us. By god's grace each of us is gifted with a grey matter complementing five primary senses and their usage is set in motion as time pass by. So we all have the right of thinking and deciding the best for us. Even though these facts are known and accepted by all, it's used superficially. We have somehow failed to appreciate the fact that our bodies are biologically same provided for some variations for determining sex. Apart from that we all posses Brain and Five basic senses. 




I am often inquisitive of stupendous judgement people pronounce on the account of their experience, better analytic skills, reasoning, fruitful efforts in some XYZ situation, social service instincts and what not. Look around once and you'll find many doing this to you. They come to you as an guardian angel and in no time will make you handicapped. Mind you, they wont stop at this, very soon you ll listen to glorious stories of how dumb you are and how remarkably they have saved you. And by then it would be too late to advocate yourself. Sharing what all we already know is not bad until it suppress receiver's own assessment and right of decision making. A mouthful of wisdom is good to go but try not to overshadow other's thought process. Remember, helping a caterpillar coming out of shell makes an ugly butterfly. Not every lesson could be learned, heard. 


Similarly there are few who don't mind labeling each and every creation of almighty. Thank god for creating such light houses for our enlightenment. There are n no. of peeping eyes itchy to "Name" you at the very first look. Even if i leave significant and obvious points of weighing someone, there are so many to be taken care of while you are scanned. 

- Eeeuuuu she keeps a yellow bag...didn't you noticed her silver dress, so gaudy i tell u. 
- He takes his pup out daily in evening. I think something is going on between him and daughter of Mr. Z.
- X's sister's DIL asked for a divorce. Poor girl. Even X looks cunning, must be like her sister only. Who will   give their daughter to X knowing all this.
- I heard S resigned from her job. Who knows she resigned or was thrown out. My daughter told me             she always remains busy with her phone. Which employer tolerates this.
- She doesn't eat dosa with a fork...how tacky
- He asked for the leftover food to get packed...sucha miser i tell you..want worth of his each penny



C'on give them a break. Do what is best for you and be merciful to rest of the world. Fundamental rights are available to all without fail. Do not dictate just because they cant sue you for depriving them of their own rights. Its good to mind your own business and to accept and respect others like the way they are. If you can't keep your figures down please avoid putting and pressing it above all. You may be an exemplar of all virtues but you should agree with the fact that furnishing not-so-required advice is absolutely not cool. Not everybody's way of committing sin could be same.

New Nursery rhyme

What if the sun does some over time
If a creeper tries and just can not climb

rain come sneezing at every thunder
And a dear practices to be a good hunter

When Gchat can read everyone’s mind
And Mouse and my cat together dines

Whatsapp goes to an unknown land
Harry keep searching for his missing wand

When Carrot says no to a knife
And moon arrives at my window twice

Touch-me-not gets ready for a fight
And Tower of pisa get straight upright

All written above is an insanity sign
Spare me friends,empty mind is the partner-in-crime

55 words fiction - It remained Empty



"Itz a long way to go" he murmured. Kavya, lost in her growing anxiety failed to took notice of what he did few minutes back.

Arriving at the fringe of valley, she looked around in haste. Her Blank eyes is what he could see last. "My love was never enough for you" echoed in mountains.

Over and Above all

There are so many things, events, actions we see around which are over and above the intentions for which they are done or carried out. These things are somehow triggered by one's own values or is done to satisfy the heap of society expectations. There are many unwritten rules and guidelines which are to unnecessarily followed just for the sake of itz been done in the same way from ages ago. And since nobody dares breaching the established law we ends up mere puppets acting as per their modulations. And now the hold is so grave that we just can't let it go. It needs ample of spirit and fearlessness and sorry to say we are still slaves of "Log Kya Kahenge...."

One of the examples of such an event which we are fond of is - Marriage. Forget about the cruel cases of dowry or where are women considered dust of a male's feet. Lets talk about a decent indian wedding. Yeah, decent still exists and in aam-aadmi's established and recognized protocol it means - Searching for a family which doesn't demand - car, cash, house, gold, 3* wedding venue, caterers of their choice, who are educated and let their daughter work etc etc. So, a decent shaadi constitues (Bride-side version) - some gold for your daughter, gifts for groom, his family & extended families, renting a fancy hall for the shaadi (since they have not explicitly asked for it but who doesn't want), gold ornaments for parents of groom (again, they have not asked for it), small car lets say an alto, wagaon R (after all.....they didn't demand), enough cash to display (same reason as above), gifts for there own family & extended family (after all, they will be giving something for Kanyadaan), sangeet night in not-so-fancy-hall etc etc. And at the end they shield it behind "We are the lucky that they didn't demand anything. But that doesn't mean we do not do anything to maintain their honor. Every one expects, who doesn't. What if they would have asked for something at the last moment. We didn't give them any scope to complain or demand. Daamad ji is engineer after all. He chose our daughter in spite of attractive dowry packages offered."

I am a Rajasthani and has been a spectator to all listed above. Honestly speaking, before it all started in my family i too enjoyed going in marriages, loading myself with tons of calories, tasting and throwing away - of course being a guest itz my birth right. If not an active participant of bad-mouth group, i would't mind listening to that. Now being a part of the system or lets put it this way that now when it has come to my family funds i am awakening to a new "Real world" coming with a cost of several bylaws at a discounted rate. What to do, how to do, when to do is considered daily, in the background of it's agreement with :

The choice of Groom's family

Standards of society


and what are their own choices, forgotten some where or are lost enough to make any.

I, by default, become a part and parcel of such frequent instances. When subjected to it, I do not surrender by merely listening and waiting for a new showbiz of the biggest social drama. Though, i have come to a pact with the fact that even if i scream or threaten them to run away, this glossy sequence will go at its own pace. Helpless but won't spare an effort against it. In a rush to get everything perfect for those, attending for the sake of relishing a lavish dinner for free and dancing at the tunes of band, two angelic-innocent faces are buried who just look around with confusion albeit meekly smiling at times reminding themselves that "Itz their Day".

Do not come any other day...

It happened a week ago. I took no time to realize the swift move. Yes, it was quick this time unlike the usual slothful advance it makes. "Shit, she has come mamma"- i almost cried while all i could get in sympathy was her smirk. Well, knowing that the most i could do to escape is just to prepare myself i submitted myself to the grave tragedy. Grumbling, i followed my rescue plan. Evaluating the force i decided to make it hard for her this time. "You see this time i wont let you subdue me" i muttered, cursing for what all she did to me last time.

If you are still wondering as to whom i fear the most, its none other than nature's yet another gift for helpless human - Winters. Its early arrival in all its pink has already left me with blue, white, yellow, green and every other possible color of hankies. No rewards for guessing that i have already been down with a severe cold while people  my mamma says its a start. Yeah and that is what making me 10 times more scared that if its first and lets-be-ready Blow can bestow a week long cold what will......see, i just cannot go up the ladder of severity. Few more pangs of cough & cold, cruel sleepless nights coz of ice-cold feet, no late night walks, more than half of wardrobe getting useless, increased oil content in daily diet (of course mamma cant discount me for paratha, halwa n laddoos).....these are just few to mention. 

People do love winters in fact they look up to its arrival. After all they wait so long to have countless cups of tea while gossiping around their house boundaries and of course a bowl full of pakoda, plate of chikki, gajak are not to be forgotten. I look at their endless capacity to gulp down our very own indian chocolates smeared in sugar/sugar syrup and pray for an early end to this fun fiesta. Every time i stand on a weighing machine in winters my rolling eyes pops out at the result. "Make it 5 kgs less baby and look at the jacket you are wearing" - I sigh of relief.

What if i cant go whhirrrllllllll over a snow sheet, there are so many other fascinating vacations options available. And let me remind you that coffee is not to be associated with winters. Trying to hold a cup with shivering hands and saving it from spilling is not my idea of winter adventure. Coffee tastes equally good rather better in rains.

I have always longed for a year devoid of winters but the wish is still waiting for the magic touch. These three months of chill are always spent in misery complaining every other moment. Fingers crossed i am still waiting for a full proof relocating plan where i could bare my waxed hands and legs throughout the year :P. Finally few words for aunties attending winter weddings - Oh Holy Spirit, please bless me with an everlasting endurance to display best of designer wears, tons of gold and oodles of diamonds with a quivering spine.

PS - Global warming please speed up. Provided the events going on i'm sure to get rid of winters soon.

55 Words fiction-Thirsty no more..

"May i come in teacher" - her sweet voice chimed in when i was at the verge of losing. I have seen her for last six months. Blissful she appears just like the big purple flowers on her dress.

Fangs thrusts up, terror appeared in her eyes while mine, bleed. Red all over. Quenched i leave.

Tangled ends

Are there some tangled ends ??
yes, some are there for sure friends
which i see, i feel and try to escape
you are the lucky ones who are not at bay

i get deceived at every route taken
senses get puzzled, blurred are notions
the grasp is strong and stronger it gets
force is at its best, taking me in its arrest

aloof i stay ringed in the web
sulk and despair fails to ebb
its better to bide my time and let me low
coz some times demands a forego
