Life beyond body

A cage without a bird is empty. We look at it either in anticipation to see a bird or in the disappointment of the bird that has flown away from us. Coma as known in science or medical term is one that state, where we define one's existence, by an electronic beep of sound to mark their presence and absence. I asked myself whether that state of mind in a coma is alive; are they listening to all the hustle and bustle of the doctors, nurses and loved one around? Or its a delusion of oneself belonging physically there but left the world long ago. It's a helpless feeling to see your loved and near one to let go right in front of you slowly, every day. You want to hold them as tightly you can so that they don't leave you. No one in this universe can hold or control life. My experience to witness life and death so closely has broken me, I sit for hours and think about how this has happened and why it happened. Clueless and helpless I'm still in denial of this whole science

It is never too late to run

Waiting to run in this free world today. Morning is not same as it's used to be, want to run and catch the dreams that I have carefully wrapped in dark nights. Those dark nights which we all face, those nasty nights stop us from believing in ourselves. But, we need those unpredictable winter shower to clear those dark nights and a new bright day to open the wrappers from our dream. I'm not the same, echo my heart again and again. Love to be what I'm today. I'm thankful to all those dark nights that came my way. If I haven't seen those nights, I won't understand meaning of brightness. So, ladies and beautiful never stop believing in yourself. We all have it and can do, we don't need to be prepared, just do what you like to do, and love and nurture your dream as your baby. Its never too late and never too early, its right when you think. So, start believing in yourselves and unwrap those nights to find those dreams. To my friend Avi, Love you sweetheart.

Dusk to Dawn

It's been more than 2 years that I have not blogged. As I sat down blogging today I have butterflies fluttering in my stomach. Interesting isn't it! It's the same feeling which as a child, you might have experienced on the very first day of the school or before any of your exam or job interview. So the reason of my disappearance for this brief period is what "  Dusk to Dawn" is all about. A story which every young working mom can relate to. Life can't be better and worth, without this experience which we call as "Motherhood". Though it looked like yesterday when I conceived and delivered a life. My son is going to be three soon, but everything looks so fresh as if he was born just yesterday. Life has changed and so do me. Daughter, wife and now mother, wearing all these hats once seems as if I'm a juggler in a circus. But with each commencing  day I have become more confident and efficient, and changing hats doesn't seem difficult. I chang

45 minutes

Mostly, we people learn from our experiences ,circumstances .But the very next day we forget about that and get busy in our own world.Last night those 45 minutes has taught me another aspect of life.And i am not surprised if in this fast moving world,i forget that learning.But before it vanishes from my mind ,i just wanna share this with you all . I was busy filling my cart with veggies,juices,etc and suddenly there was darkness and silence in that crowed grocery store.As if the whole world has come to a pause.Everything has stopped,i finally left my cart as it is in the store,as the store person cannot check-out without electricity.So,I made my way to the parking and carefully drove my car through the dark roads,which were unusually silent on that Saturday night.And there was another surprise waiting for me at the door.As everything is electronic controlled i cannot open the front gate of my apartment.So,finally i have to park my car on the road and as i dont have candle at home,s

Lets act rather than debate.........................

Whole nation was in siege for last 3 days and every Indian was a mumbaikar.Lets all fight together against this mayhem rather than debate; on who is wrong or who should be punished.Yes we are angry and shattered,but is this is enough.No we need to change it ,we just cannot blame and blame the government.We live in democratic nation and it is we the people who choose the government.

Review on Fasting,Feasting

Fasting, Feasting is a cross-cultural blend of Indian and western culture, by Anita Desai. Though very few Indian writers are internationally acclaimed, but this book was able to mark its presence in the finalist at booker prize. Fasting, Feasting is set in two entirely different and extreme backdrops. First part takes you through a life of a young Girl Uma , from a small town middleclass family in India . She is always overruled by her conservative father from her childhood to adulthood and also by her so called fate. Her feelings are beautifully portrayed by the writer, through characters like, her widow Mira Massi or her alcoholic cousin Ramu .Writer has brilliantly used these characters to display the inner conscious and desire of Uma. While Aruna and their neighbor display the mindset of a girl, who wants freedom and power. Thus first-part talks about Uma’s life and second part takes you far in America, where Arun, the younger brother of Uma, who is also the epicenter of her famil
