Har Kalam kuch kehti hai!!

Kehte hain ke barso se itihas badalti hai kalam

yaad hai mujhe aaj bhi jab farmaan likhe jaate the

ek sheher se dusre sheher paigaam likhe jaate the

bahut si unn yaadon ki gawaahi deti hai kalam

jab satyug me ramaayan thi ya dwaapar me mahabharat

unn sabhi mahaan granthon ki daastan likhti hai kalam

punah niramaan jab hua bharat ka wo sone ki chidiya kehlaya

jal uthe padosi desh sare aur angrezon ne jaal failaya

phut daalo aur raaj karo aisi neeti thi jo banayi

sone ki is chidiya ne phir gehri chot thi khayi

jage log aur jagaya sabko kaha ye desh hamara hai

kal angrezon ne ispr raaj kiya tha pr ab samay hamara hai

phir ek naya josh jaga kyuki aazadi thi payi

ye kissa bhi kalam ne likha kyunki mann hi mann thi wo bhi muskayi

phir sarkarein bani jantantra aaya mera bharat phir muskaya

kaha kalam ne chupke se ki ab to naye niyam honge

aisa desh banayenge jisme main ya tu nahi bas hum honge

koi bhed nahi hoga insaano me dharm ko lekr

yaha ishwar allah aur ishumasih alag hokr bhi ek honge

sabhi dharmo ki alag hai bhasha par iraade to nek hai

niyam sau banalo phir bhi kalam ki syahi to ek hai

samay jaise badha tha aage niyam ki kitab ne dhool khayi

kalam ne dekhi iski haalat aur thodi si wo ghabrayi

kya socha tha kya hua ye soch kr wo pachhtayi

insaan tha khud ko bhula aankho par thi lalach ki patti lagayi

kalam ko phir dhyan me aaya ki ye to kalyug hai bhai

jahaan na hai nari ki izzat na hi hai badon ka sammaan

sanskaro ko kuchal kr aise hi aage badh raha insaan 

vyavharik ban raha ye kehkar apni hi dhun me hai

samjhao koi is naadaan ko ki thehar jaye

kyuki asli maza nashe me nahin jeewan me hai

kalam ka to kaam hai ki wo likhti jaye 

kal bhi likha tha aaj bhi likh rahi aur kal bhi likhegi

aise hi kisso ko anjaam deti hai kalam

kehte hain ki barso se itihas badalti hai kalam

All you need is CONFIDENCE

 In a board meeting of hundred people, suddenly a voice came loud and clear "I will do it", and board members took a decision of giving this opportunity to this person, who confidently accepted it. Like this person we also have this "confidence" within all of us. We only need to understand it and use it at the right time, so that we can get the satisfactory results and can lead a successful and happy life. So why is it that some people get the success in their early stages of life and some people get success in their later stages of life? It is because these people have confidence in themselves. They have courage to do something different than others. They question everything that they don't understand. They think that they can achieve everything, that they want to achieve. Also they know how to deal with every situation. So, How is this happening? How these people are getting this much confidence? Well actually we know the answer to it, and the answer is "COURAGE". If you have the courage, you can achieve everything. But sometimes only courage will not work, you will need support of your colleagues, friends and family. I work in an IT firm where men and women are looked as an equal, we constantly need to work hard and update ourselves with everything that our profession needs. We are constantly taken up to learn new things, to achieve new goals. And if because of some reason we are unable to achieve it, this constant thing makes a mental pressure, that sometimes leads to lack of courage and we lose confidence in ourselves. I think this is a very negative thought and a person should not stay with this idea for long, because it reduces his work and his interest in working. Now the question is how to deal with this situation? So first thing first we need to manage our time. We should know how much time we should give to work so that we can enjoy the rest of our time with doing other things that makes us feel better and second we need to discipline ourselves to do the priority things first so that at the last moment we don't end-up finish things in hurry. And when we accomplish these two goals we will feel confident in ourselves.

The Pendent

 It was a fine Saturday morning. I can clearly hear some birds chirping outside the window of my bedroom. Also the sound of the municipality garbage collector truck with the annoying swacchata abhiyan song. And suddenly I heard a loud and clear voice of my mother "Shilpa!! yaha suraj sar par chadh aaya hai aur tu ab tak so rahi hai". I then slowly uncover myself to see outside the window, It was very clear and beautiful. I thanked god for another beautiful morning and answered my mother saying "uth gayi hu main..". I came out of my room and saw some old papers, newspapers and magazines scattered on the ground and my father sitting on a chair sipping his morning tea and reading today's newspaper. I then asked him "Why all these papers are on the ground..?", He looked at me through his round black thick frame eye glasses and said "Tumhari mom aaj swacchata abhiyan chala rahi hai.." and started reading his newspaper again. Then my mother entered there hand me the cup of tea, and asked me to help her with the household work starting with the cleaning of these scattered papers and I nodded "YES..". I turned on the radio and tuned into the famous morning show "bhule bisre geet" of vividh bharti, this song was playing there "Tere mere sapne ab ek rang hai..." from the movie guide. I started muttering the song with the cleaning of the scattered papers, Then I saw a piece of paper lying there and when I picked it up and read it, it turned out that it was not a simple piece of paper but a letter. Letter he wrote to me. And suddenly all the memories were again revealed to the eyes, I smiled and kept the letter with me. After cleaning the papers I went to my room and read the letter again, In this letter, he wrote a poem for me. We were just 9 or 10 years old, but there were emotions and innocence in this letter. I couldn't think of anything but just smiling and suddenly I saw a lemon tree in the garden of my house on which many birds were sitting and seeing this, I started thinking about those old days when we were together, We were happy we didn't have any worries the days were passing as Hakuna Matata. Then one thing came to my notice that I have a memory of that time with me, a thread. To say this was just a thread in which the initials of his name were there, but when he gave it to me 20 years ago, for me it was not just a thread but a necklace. I still remember when my family was going to my cousin's wedding, I was wearing this necklace and was telling everyone that my best friend gave me this necklace. The friend who loves me the most in the whole world and then everyone was calling it my childish temperament. I started looking for that necklace in my room. I looked everywhere on my old study table in the drawer in my cupboard, but that necklace was not found anywhere. I sat down on my bed feeling depressed and started thinking about every place where the necklace could be. Then I heard my mother's voice telling me to go for a bath. I got up from my bed with a sad heart and started preparing to go for a bath. I was still able to listen to the radio songs and this time the song that was playing was completely settling down on my situation, "Jaaneja dhundhti pheer rahi hun tumhe raat din main yahaa se wahaa". And while humming this song, I went to take a bath. Due to the absence of that necklace, I left the water tap open and lost in my own thoughts. Then came the voice of the mother "Shilpa!! balti bhar gayi hogi tum kis duniya me khoyi ho nal band karo pani khatam ho jaega", and I quickly closed the tap. After some time we sat down for lunch and mother started talking about cleaning some other places. I was so sad that I told my mother that I will not do any cleaning now. Then the mother said okay, but after that she said something that encouraged me to do the cleaning and I said that I will clean the place, mother laughed at this strange behavior of mine and said ok you do it. Now I had a new passion about cleaning because now I was going to clean the place where I would get that necklace. That place was nowhere else but our old room, in which my mother had kept all my old things in a box. And I was right after all, I found that necklace, yes its thread was broken and some dust had settled on that initial pendant, but the emotions associated with that necklace were still the same. Don't know why, but a tear fell from my eyes, maybe with that pendant my old feelings and old memories and that naivety had returned. I took that pendant and kept it in my pocket to never lose it again.

Curtains

Curtains!! Ever wonder why we even need this piece of cloth? Well, actually we don't really need this, because if it's not there it makes no change. But as humans, we have a tendency to hide everything or something from everyone or someone in this place called life. From my childhood till now I have learnt so many things, including hiding my feelings... I remember as a child, I used to hide chocolates/candies from my siblings, but somehow they get to know about it and at the end I need to share it with everyone. But how is it happening? Who told them about my chocolates and candies that I saved for myself. It was my mother, who knows every move of mine and she let's us share the chocolates/candies. Now, as I am an adult I understand why she did so. She was a curtain between three of her children's, and as curtains play the role in our life so as my mother did. She keeps the secret of each child of her to herself, but she knows where to swing the curtain so that all of her children get the equal amount of happiness. And that's one of the best lesson of my life that I learnt from her, and so I learnt the need of curtains in our life or in human life. Curtains lets you be yourself, helps you to keep your secret to yourself. But for the sake of sharing your happiness you need to swing the curtain and share your life with everyone.
