Baby your special!!!

I seriously don’t know where to start from because I have many things to talk about. Okay I’ll start writing with this…

Sola saal phele (just wanted to add some drama to the article:-P) a very cute looking, always smiling innocent baby was introduced to me. I didn’t know how to react on seeing someone so delicate and the first thing I did was pulling him out from mumma’s hands for which I got screamed at and was warned to be careful. I was being watched over everytime I wanted to even take a look at you or  try talking to you, which I hated the most. Finally when I had learnt how to be your elder sister and take care of you, was when we were left with ourselves to do what we wanted to do.

To tell you honestly, at the beginning I  hated the attention you would get from everybody in the house and I had become their second preference and then I would sit and crib about it and yell at everyone (basically do fultoo drama) to get the attention. I was used to everyone’s attention for 7 years and then you took over, receiving that special treatment. You know sometimes to get mom’s attention I would pinch you real hard till you cry and then act like I am trying to pamper you and being the nice elder sister ;-). Sorry for that baby. Slowly slowly I had realised that you are really young and need to be taken care of. Although then I didn’t act like I was looking after you,  I genuinely did. (Chal ab say thank you :-*)

You being around has always filled me with positivity and happiness and every time I carried you, you looked at me with love in your eyes and a smile on your face making me feel so special and nice. As days quickly passed by, you  were able to walk and talk and baap re!, you were really a naughty kid. Throwing things was you favourite pastime and everytime you threw something you would burst into splits of laughter. (Half of my childhood has gone in picking up things you threw and giving them back to you so that it could be thrown again !!  Hmpf!!!) But those were real fun times that we spent together. Thankyou for that. :)

The time has now changed as that cute little baby boy who could fit into my lap has grown up to be a handsome boy who is now capable of handling everything all by himself. That little kid who would love to be carried around, today can carry me and god I just can’t think of doing that at all. I knew that Mahir had grown tall but it was a shocker when I was combing my hair in front of the mirror one day and he came and stood in front of me covering me from all sides. “Wow I'm  really short "was the thought that appeared in my head to which Mahir actually  replied “Nahi Didi you are not short - I have become tall.”. Anyway I have crazy amount of stuff to write which is a never ending story but  I have to end this write up. So in the end all I am going to say is…

“Mahir baby irrespective of how tall you grown or how old you become you will always be my special baby brother. The bond that we share has gotten strong and deeper with time and it’ll remain just the way it has been forever. You have been, you are and you always will be my priority in life.”

"Baby I wish you all the happiness in the world and may your dreams come true… Lots and lots of love, hugs and kisses :-* 

Feelings

What to write and what to not? How to start and end? Would it sound good, how would it be read? Certainly these were the questions running in my head. Then popped up a thought that to me said "Why not write something on what I felt !! Hence I started typing and realised my fingers were dancing on the keyboard. I didn't need to stress on if things were making sense, all I did was write what I exactly felt.

The first thing that hit me was my nervousness which has always been there when I start something fresh. Setting my courage in takes time but once it was set, I pulled up my socks and continued from where I had left. Then appeared the feeling of anxiety, which was because I was thinking about the response I would get. This was followed by a change and I felt like this was exactly where I was meant to be and that made me feel happy not only from the outside but from within.

My thoughts were now not just appearing in my head but were playing like a  melodious song and all my feelings were dancing on its tune. The way I now felt was a mixture of every emotion as though my senses were rewinding and playing every special moment again. This was the first time I was clueless as to how would I be able to describe what I felt and I finally found the right word to express myself which was  the word "Incredible".

Cheti Chand

Cheti Chand is an important festival celebrated as New Year's Day by Sindhi people all over the world. According to the the Hindu calendar, it is the second day of the month chaitra (i.e. a day after Ugadi and Gudi Padwa), known as Chet in the Sindhi language. Hence it is known as Chet-i-Chand. It is celebrated in honour in the birth of Ishtadeva Uderolal, popularly known as Jhulelal, the patron saint 

of the Sindhis. This day is considered to be very auspicious and therefore it is celebrated in a very grand manner.

The festival of Cheti Chand occurred on the 24^th of March this year. The day began with puja of Jhulelal in the Gurudwara which was followed by a traditional meal called “Langer” a term mostly used by North Indians. It is not only treated as lunch but is considered to be a “Prasad” that is first offered to deity and then consumed. “I love having the Langer there as it is not only with family but with so many other Sindhis present” was told by Rohit Bajaj

Continuing in the celebrations a mela is organised either on the same evening or the next day. It is a large gathering where Sindhis from all over come together with their families and friends to celebrate this great day. “Celebrating Cheti Chand is one big event for us as all the Sindhis meet here under the same roof, taking time out from their busy schedules” was told by Neha Lulla. Just like an exhibition there are different stalls put up where people display their collection of clothes, food, jewellery, hand crafted items, home accessories etc., to help raise funds that are used for charitable purposes. It also has cultural activities for children like dancing, singing, painting etc. Also for entertainment purpose discotheques, magic shows, tambola and different games are put up. Aakansha stated “I really have fun here and I like the arrangements.” All in all it’s a day where people come to celebrate with laughter, fun and entertainment. “I won a mobile phone while playing tambola” said Akash. Prize distribution happens after every event to encourage more and more participation. 

Cartwheel to Cayenne

Humans have possessed knowledge of the wheel for several thousand years and carts have been mentioned in literature as far back as the second millennium B.C. In some sense, the earliest fore runners of the car date back to the earliest mists of our pre history. The wagon existed in its animal-drawn form for thousands of years before it was possible to make it self-propelled, literally an "auto-mobile."

Ironically, this ‘technological toy’ was invented by a Flemish missionary named Ferdinand Verbiest as a toy for the Chinese emperor. Considering this is over 200 years before the construction of what's generally considered the first modern automobile, this was a remarkable achievement, yet we are not sure if this was an actual invention or a figment of Verbiest’s own imagination. What we can be assured of is this- Although Steam technology was still in its infancy at the time, Verbiest’s rudimentary, ball-shaped boiler, which then forced steam towards a turbine that could turn the back wheels, was effectively one of the earliest scale models of an automobile. 

At the end of the seventeenth century, existing vehicular technology was more than adequate to meet the demands of society. In the age of absolute monarchs, it was more important to solve other engineering challenges that were difficult or impossible to achieve with conventional energy sources. While no one was really tackling this subject directly, the legendary Dutch scientist Christian Huygens did take a crucial step towards the car in 1673, one year after Verbiest reputedly began work on his ‘technological’ toy for the emperor of China. The 1700’s were dominated by various inventors trying to perfect the steam engine.

From Karl Benz’s automobile production being the first in the 18^th century to the 20^th century where the automobile industry started spreading its wings in various parts of the world, cars have certainly evolved in terms of technological 

The Fever Returns: IPL

The Night That Went On...

 This week saw a lot of happenings in the city. While 10D’s retro night saw party goers dancing to old classical music and spending their Friday night, another club had Hip Hop Ryde as their theme for the night. With IPL fever that has taken over the city the page 3 PYT’s chose different spots to party and watch the match with their friends and family. Owing to the new Hyderabad team the 'Sun Risers' playing their debut match against 'Pune Warriors India' the party spirit in the public was a whole lot higher than the usual. ]This saw a lot of people heading towards their favourite clubs to cheer for the team. The party goers of the city were seen having a gala time while watching the match and dancing to the tunes of the DJ.

“I chose to go to Chiran fort to watch the match and had an amazing time with friends while watching it. Later when SRH won we went to BnC to celebrate the victory and party.” said Pavan Shikhar, a digital analyst. Mitika Vazir an Interior Designer said, “At 10D I enjoyed the classical music as it was pretty groovy and the crowd was fun and decent. It was a best place to spend a good Friday night, the match victory being the icing on the cake.” “All I wanted to do was to have fun, dance and party for which my friends and I decided to go to Kismet. I spent a really good time there.” quoted Simran Kotak, a Cartoonist. Ravi Khanna a store manager mentioned, “The IPL season has always been a time when most of my friends take a break from their busy schedule and meet to watch the match together. It was a great night with them and it

was delightful that we won.”

The page 3 party goers need a reason to party and the IPL is perhaps the best reason. This is the time when most of the page 3 PYT’s are seen heading to clubs to cheer for their teams along with having a good time partying.

CARVED MY OWN WAY

To a new beginning…

“Age is just a number” goes a famous saying. A lot of young entrepreneurs have been an example of this saying as they turn their passion into a business at an early age. At the age of 17-18 when teenagers usually party hard, have fun in their lives and do a lot of other stuff that is related to entertainment their also are people who work hard. They are the ones who start early and earn their own living doing what they love doing.

Living their dream is not the only motto of these entrepreneurs but they also make it a means to earn their livelihood out of it and contribute their share to the Indian economy. “In 2010 I was a fresh pass out with a B.TECH degree and was offered a well paid job, but that was not something that I was looking forward to. I wanted to do something in which my passion was. Hence I got together with a group of like minded friends and we started our own ad agency and today are happy and satisfied with our choices.” says Ranjith Kumar the director of Vinoothna Geetha Media Pvt Ltd.

Rohan Gaggar who owns a restaurant says, “Working with my Father was how I entered in the business world but later I realized that my passion lies in cooking, something that I have loved since childhood. I took a step further and converted my passion into a profitable business venture.” “Music is the field where my passion lies that’s why I am into artist management. This makes me happy and also gets in good bucks.” speaks Pratik Tilwani a well known Artist Manager in the city.

Muzayna Naqeeb a student of St. Francis quotes, “Anything related to beauty is where my passion lies and this is what made me come up with a blog as a way of interacting with people across the world sharing the same interest. This passion slowly changed into a profession when I was approached by companies to write for beauty content or to review their products and now with the help of advertisements I manage to earn money from home.”

In conclusion, when passion is converted to business it results in satisfaction and changes one’s whole out look to the idea of work. This not only gives the owner of the venture pleasure in working but provides them with an open platform to connect with the whole wide world. 

How Safe is Safe

February 21st, 2013 rocked the city of the nawabs with the twin blasts that took place in dilsukhnagar. This blast has broken the peace and harmony the citizens were living in and caused a sense of fear in their minds. An alarming high alert was activated in the state capital and the police are carrying out checking and frisking operations. 

With the security of the city in question everybody is expecting that a strong safety order will be taken for further protection. The question now being asked is “How safe is safe?” When asked the people in city about how safe they feel after the blast every individual had a different take on it. While some agreed to feeling safe the other set didn’t seem to be very happy with the measures taken in regards to security and safety. 

Preeti Gera a software designer expressed that, “I feel relaxed seeing men in uniform stand at bus stops and take notice of what’s going on around them. This gives me a feel of being safe in this city.” “Patrolling in the night has increased which is a good step taken towards the security of the city.” was the opinion of Mohan Krishna, a vegetable vendor. Madeeha Naqeeb a student of St. Francis College for women quoted, “I do feel more safe knowing that there are policemen stationed at various places.” 

“The checking that happens in the malls is sometimes very lenient and that makes targeting a mall an easy place.” said Rohit Kumar an art designer. Rohini Gupta a photographer tells, “The area I live in is pretty deserted and I don’t really find any security guard there making me feel unsafe to travel during any time of the hour.” “Charminar being the main hub of the city makes me feel unsafe as the security guards stationed are least bothered of what’s going on and even if they react in a situation their reaction is always late.” said Monica a student of Loyola College.

Being safe in one’s habitat is an important factor for every individual and with attacks taking place this sense of feeling is long gone and to make people feel comfortable the government has to take necessary steps to ensure the safety of the public in every area.

From 2G to 3G

Phones: The ‘Phone’, ever since its launch in the 1870’s by Alexander Graham Bell, has undergone several changes. These days it has become a very important part of life for us. One of the important products of ICT are ‘Phones’.


I got my first phone when I was 16. It was a 2G network phone. Although it was a colour phone with internet access and many other facilities, I still felt like something was missing. Every time I used my phone to access the internet, I would click on the link, stare at it for at least 5 minutes and wait until the link opened. Downloading was an extremely painful process as the internet speed was very slow and usually I would avoid doing it.

Then finally, along came a new dimension to my life with a new smart phone with - 3G network connection. Now surfing the internet and downloading has become a very fast and quick process.  These days I am completely hooked on to my phone. Whenever I get even a minute’s break I use my phone, that's how crazy my addiction to it is. What was once dull and slow has now become fast and happening.  Applications like Angry Birds, Temple Run, Google maps, Voice talks, Fruit slice, etc., are all available on it and much more. The process of clicking on the link and waiting for it to open has now turned into clicking, downloading and using immediately. It has changed my notion of using a phone completely.  

Phones as an ICT product has actually become very essential especially because of the 3G network today. 2G is fast, but 3G is faster. Such a quick and growing development is certainly reducing the so called "digital divide", in one way or the other.

Neend ne aaj humara daman choda hua hai,

sapno ne aaj apna rukh moda hua hai.

Hoton pe sajhi yeh hasi dur jaane lagi,

tanhayion mein yeh zindagi jaise kho jaane lagi.

Heere jawarat se sajhi imarat bhi kaam na aye,
agar nafarat palti ho uske andar,
wahi chotasa mitti ka ghar har aandhi toofan paar kar jaye,
jo pyaar hai wahan par.

Beech raah mein woh tanha hume chod gaye,
sahara dene waale hume besahaara chod gaye,
wajah thi bus yehi,
kisi gaire ke liye apno se woh muh mod gaye.

Khushi hai tu,
manzil bhi tu,
duao mein meri shamil hai tu,
dil hua tera,
main hui teri,
dhunde nazere jise woh saathi hai tu.

For daddy dearest

Thamke haat aapka maine chalna seekha hai,
zindagi ki mushkilon se ladna seekha hai,
papa aap ho toh sab kuch hai,
aap se hi toh maine gir kar sambhalna seekha hai.

Muskurahat tumhari sabdhon mein bayan nahi kari jaa sakti,
khubsurati tumhari likhawat mein nahi samjhai jaa sakti,
sharma gaya aaina bhi aur uske sharmane ki wajah yuhi nahi batai jaa sakti.

Enslaved.

Are You?

The English Dictionary defines the word Enslavement as a synonym of addiction. In simpler terms addiction means a persistent, compulsive dependence on behaviour or a substance. Unlike the olden days, humans are no longer enslaves of the other humans or the elite class. Trends have changed where enslavement to others is taken over by enslavement to gadgets. In fact the addiction to gadgets is to such an extent that it has been compared to addiction of drugs. Withdrawal symptoms experienced by people deprived of gadgets and technology is compared to those felt by drug addicts or smokers going “cold turkey.”

With the advancement in technology there are umpteen numbers of gadgets available in the market.  You name it and they are there. Be it latest models of phones, laptops, wrist watches, vehicles, cameras, play stations, I pads, I pods etc… the list is endless. ‘Gadgaholism’ is a term described to such addicts. One can get addicted to the gadgets due to the various features they come with. Technologies in these gadgets are so advanced that they have made working easy and everything is just a click away. Today, we have everything we need to make our life simpler. To travel one has all kinds of vehicles from cycles to luxury cars that cover’s distances in half the time.

“I am addicted to my car a bit too much and this is due to the comfort it provides plus I can charge my phone, listen to music while travelling to my destination at the same time,” says Nikhil Arora a Visual Developer. Aakanksha Chawla an analyst in Deloitte says, “I don’t think I can stay away from my laptop for a day as I am constantly checking my mails or doing something on it.” “I am addicted to my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as it helps me with my work and its HD screen gives a terrific experience to videos, games and reading. Its improved stylus and S Note app aids productivity,” says Mayur a Software Engineer.

People these days spend more time with their gadgets than with others. In short gadgets have actually replaced human beings. “Even when one decides to meet their friends, they are seen engrossed in their phones rather than spending time with others,” says Mitika Vazir an Interior Designer. If this is the impact of gadgets in the 20^th century then we wonder what follows next.

 

Mommy for you

Tere deedaar se meri subh khil jaati hai,
mere har gum mein tu hi muskurane ki wajah ban jaati hai,
jis godh mein chain ki neend aaye,
maa woh godh teri hi toh kehelati hai.

Inked!!!

A Trend or a Belief?

An Om, a Dragon, a Winged Angel, a Skull, Zodiac Signs etc…Wonder what’s common amongst them? They are all seen in the form of Tattoos. Tattoo Art- at its inception it was the trend amongst the cream of the crop People as a symbol of their status and as a value of their culture. It was then known as ‘a badge of honor’, which, today has been replaced with being a fashion statement. Another interesting fact to note is that in olden days, tattoos were used as a form of punishment and a medium to discriminate slaves from their authoritative rulers. The question is however the same- is tattooing just a trend, a fashion statement or is it something that one believes in?

Going back to history, we could say that there was a noticeable shift in the perception of being inked- from Bikers, Gangbangers and Music Junkies to the common youth of today. Nowadays, the type of people getting inked has branched out, certainly not restricted to groups. Every custom, when observed intricately has a reason for its existence which is not necessarily negative although it is sometimes judged as absurd and irrational. For most people who getting inked is a belief, a symbolic representation of a deep connection to a person, a thing or anything else that is very important in their life.

Funnily, at one point tattoos were considered as taboo and a subject that was unmentionable and secretive. They were a sign that denoted something immoral or unclean, where the people who used to get them done were the ones associated with Black magic or Witch craft. This belief has completely changed over the time and has carved a whole new identity for itself. Now anybody and everybody gets tattooed, not just the ones associated with dark elevation of life.

Donna Munshi, a Photographer by profession says, “I got three tattoos inked on myself for they mean and represent something that I have deep connection with and will cherish forever.” Rachna Chabria, a Knowledge analyst at Deloitte- “For me getting a tattoo done on my nape was a very emotional and conscious choice that I made, as it symbolizes my grandfather and the tattoo is now my identity as well as a memory of him, reminding me he is always watching my back.” Says Karan Jain, an Assistant Manager for a Software firm “I got inked as it means a lot to me and I wanted it on my body as it is a complete opposite of what I had in life.” However, keeping in sync with the trend of tattooing, Kunal Vazir, an MD of a popular Retail brand says “I got a tattoo done for the reason that I liked the design and it made feel good about myself”.

Some believe that tattoos are a permanent and a beautiful ancient art which looks good only if adorned on our body for the right reasons. When seen as a belief, it is argued that getting a tattoo done for the concept of being ‘cool’ is the last reason one should get inked. But others say it is rapidly spreading as a trend, primarily due to peer pressure and the fact that getting a tattoo will set them a class apart from others. The debate continues; tattooing still remains a belief and a trend, running on two parallel lines.

There are tons of different explanations as to how societies now perceive tattoos due to its wide exposure. However, the one point that cannot be negated is that the increased popularity of tattoos points at society’s acceptance of tattooing as a Social norm.

Bosco a tattoo artist speaks “We get a lot of costumers to get inked and when asked, most say that they have a deep connection with the design, while others who get inked, do so because it is being followed by a lot of people around them. Our job is to just prepare them as it a tough procedure and a permanent thing.” Nonetheless, the fact still remains; the art of tattooing, either a belief or a trend, in the end is purely a matter of one’s choice…

“Courtesy and Common Sense”

Definitely missing on the road.

Turn left or turn right, take a U turn or a roundabout all one can see is traffic everywhere. If one has to picture travelling to their destination they can only imagine themselves stuck in a swamp of vehicles where people are honking and screaming all the time. If given a chance one would definitely try and avoid travelling in such situations. Where once travelling to schools, colleges or work places was done with a fresh and peaceful mind has now become a boring and frustrating process which seems as if it is forced on the commuters.

Gone are those days when we could travel on an empty road listening to soothing music and feeling nice. Courtesy and common sense are now missing. All people want to do is rush pass the others and not wait for the right time to move. Jumping signals, accidents, driving in the wrong lane etc is a common sight these days. Even crossing a simple zebra crossing has now become next to impossible.

Basic rules of traffic have been amended by travellers in their own way. To turn left people turn from the extreme right causing trouble to the other commuters. They drive slow in a fast lane and fast in a slow lane without even noticing the disturbances they are causing. Irrespective of cameras installed, speed limit sign boards put up and traffic police present on the sight there is nothing that is really helping to solve the traffic issues. Taking longer routes, trying as hard as possible to not travel during peak hours, using local trains etc are some of the means people use these days. Though these means help those avoiding jams but it also steals away the fun related to travelling in their own vehicles.

Cell phones are mostly blamed for accidents caused but another reason for traffic confusion can be the dearth of signage. Common sense of usage of indications is completely lacking in the drivers today. Very few actually use indications and signs while driving. Signaling of a turn or to move from left to right in the same lane is a very basic but the most important rule which is almost forgotten in today’s world.

Rajath Kaur, a digital analyst says, “I was on my way to work and I had to stop at the Paradise signal to go straight when all of sudden a rash bus driver who had to turn right took a turn from the extreme left almost causing an accident.” Annu Narang a housewife says, “I normally end up honking a lot after getting frustrated. If given a chance I would give the driver a piece of my mind and if he is absolutely rash and seems to be fatal then I'm left with no option, I would take the number of his vehicle and call the police.” “Bus driver’s acts like Auto drivers and vice versa, they must mind their size on the road and not act as if they own it”, says Mona Sirwani a Graphic designer and trainer at 3di digital arts.

Pedestrians are no less for adding to chaos as they don’t prefer walking on the footpath anymore and cross just at the wrong time disturbing the normal flow of the traffic. They then blame the riders for accidents. “Pedestrians are worse as they do not prefer the footpath or the zebra crossing and cross the road during the signal that is on for the vehicles. There should be different signals for them which will help us solve at least a few troubles”, says Mohit Chotrani a retail associate. “Foot over bridges or sky walkers were constructed to solve issues of pedestrians crossing but then they are not built in the places where there is a need of it, forcing these pedestrians to cross from the main road itself”, says Rohit Raheja a young entrepreneur.

With the lack of common sense on the road and with people no longer being courteous to one other accidents are bound to happen. The issues related to traffic can be solved if the rules are taken seriously by the commuters and the government officials.  

  

THE YOUTH TODAY

WHAT IS IT TURNING INTO???

Where heading to discos and clubs was once the fancy of the rich and sophisticated older lot, it is a common sight to see young 15 and 17-year-old juveniles filling up instead. Having fun is acceptable but, to what extent? A serious question to ask is what the youth of today is turning into? Sadly, Gen Y does not even realize where they are heading. Their thoughts are limited and views confined. They are a personification of being lost, confused and misguided.

The concept of westernisation has taken on a whole new meaning. Addiction to booze, drugs and clubbing has now become rampant among teenagers. The situation is worsening each day. The number of teenage suicide and pregnancies is on the rise; the figures startling. Morals, ethics and the traditional values imbibed in us seem non-existent. In an attempt to act their age, they often don’t realize that they act foolish and irrational. It's scary how quickly youngsters are growing up these days.

Upbringing plays a vital role in the development of any individual. Seldom do parents realize that confining a child to a limited environment would only lead to the birth of a rebellion. At the age when they are just growing up, the right exposure with the right knowledge and enough freedom is important. A level of mutual understanding has to be achieved. On the other hand, parental differences destroy a child as a whole. Most victims of drug abuse and the likes are kids of divorced or single parents who neglect their children, too busy concentrating on their own personal lives. “The traumatic experiences I have faced in my family have left a deep mark on me, no matter what, I can never be the same again” recalls an 18 yr old. “Such children are unfortunate. Issues like this need to be seriously dealt with,” adds a concerned parent.

In some cases, parents can't be blamed for this type of behaviour  No matter what parents teach their children, they will always mimic their friends and peers. The greatest influence in a teenager's life is the media- television, movies and music. The simple theory of ‘what they see is what they adapt’. Content, the kind that is meant only for adults attracts their attention and exposes them to an entirely different world. The rest, as they say, is outdated.

Peer pressure is another reason.  The urge to look, dress and behave ‘cool’ leads these young minds on the wrong path. For instance, the ‘size zero figure’ trend led to a lot of youngsters succumbing to drugs and medicines that almost cost their life. Ouch!!

Education plays a major role too. Replacing a pen with a laptop, outdoor games for video games, etc. does more harm than good. The fast paced lifestyle engulfing our lives has blinded the generation. Bitten by the glamorous lifestyles of many around, working and earning in the fast track is a preferred option rather than studying further. Most school and college drop-outs look for easier alternatives not realizing the futility of such endeavours. Donna Munshi, a well known personality says, “Teens nowadays, are very impulsive and immature. They lack focus and guidance”. Difference in ideology or the ‘generation gap’ is a perfect excuse for depreciating responsibility. “You will never understand!” or statements like “ I'm not a kid any more.” are most heard around.

A careless attitude is observed amongst the majority today. They do not realize the basic values of time and money. “As long as they realize their responsibilities and enjoy while staying in their limits, there is no harm done.” says Gagandeep Chawla, a student of Hamstech Institute of Design.

The question here to ask is that can we blame the youth? Agreed, that they take the repercussions of their actions in life for granted, but is it really their fault? The analysis above hopefully gives space for ample thought. “With great freedom comes great responsibility.” goes a famous saying; it just needs to be abided by. All we can do is hope and guide these little young birds - the beauty of a productive life - not letting them get carried away by its superficiality. “This life so full of care, but we have no time to stand and stare.” - High time we started thinking about it.                                                                                                                            

Shabdon mein lapet kar aaj hum yeh bayan karte hai,

 yeh zindagi hum tumhare naam karte hai,

jo kabhi na kaha aaj woh baat hum khule aam khete hai,

haan hum tumse bheintaha pyaar karte hai.

Teri har aahat ko main pehechanti hoon,

tere har sparsh ko mehesus karna jaanti hoon,

hume baaten karne ke liye shabdon ki zaroorat nahi,

teri khamoshi ko main samjhna jaanti hoon.

Shabd kum pad jate hai jab teri baat karni hoti hai,

mand mand muskurahat hoton pe saji hoti hai,

beete hue din yaad kar mann mein kushiyan khilti hai, tujhse hi toh yeh zindagi ki shuruwat hoti hai.

 Mera saya toh hai par humsaya koi nahi,

hum toh sabke apne the par humara tha koi nahi,

din toh ye dhal gaya par raat thi jo dhali nahi,

lau jalai thi roshni ke liye par andhera tha jo mita nahi.
