Woh din...


Aaj bahut dino ke baad..
Aaye hain woh din yaad..
Jino dino hum masoom the...
Aur jindagi thi aabaad

Duniya thi apni mutthi mein
Sab log apne hote the..
Bas sochne ki deri thi
Sab sapne sacche lagte the

Masoom se dil ki baatein
Dil se hi main bhi sochti thi
Kisi ka bura sochne ka
Na mann tha na hi zaroorat thi..

Phir aaya ek woh daur
Jisne sab kuch badal diya
Dil ko dimaag ne aur Jabaan ko
Samajhdaari ne nigal liya

Ab kuch bhi kehne se pehle
Dimaag aur dil ladte hain
Doosro ki soch pe kya karu vishwaas
Jab khud ke kadam behekte hain

Dil kehta hai sab theek hi hoga
Bas karne ki hi deri hain
Dimaag lekin hansta hai
Ye kaisi nasamjhi hain

Samajh saath hi rehti hai
Phir kyo dil khaali lagta hai
Kuch badalega jaldi hi
kyo ye ummeed sa karta hai

Kya aayega ek din woh bhi
Jab dil dimaag phir ek honge
Jis bhi taraf main jaoongi
Ujaale aur sacche sapne honge

Tab tak bas aise hi chalega
ye kashmakash zindagi aur sapno ka
Jab bhi mauka milega mujhe
Jeeongi ek-ek pal jindagi ka!!

Starting Over...

In life, beginings and ends form such a crucial part of living - never have i realised it more than in the last month or so. Both personally and professionally - too many things are ending and too many new ones are beginning. Its very easy to get nostalgic about whats ended - easier still to forget that it was us who wanted that stage to end ourselves. All because somewhere or the other in our heart - we're scared of the next stage... scared of not being sure... maybe of not having the comfort of belonging - like how we did earlier. Leaving aside the personal changes - professionally, after working for 14 years non-stop, i quit. To the world - i've taken a 'break'. No plans, No hidden cards (yes i got told that by quite a few), No waiting-by-the-side offers... just needed to not feel fatigued in life and figured that it IS after all, MY OWN LIFE... so i can do what feels right to me... without guilt, or feeling irresponsible, or even just guilt of being lazy!! Its my go...

Its Father's Day today...

Its quite strange that for a society like ours which thrives and survives on family values - we never had these 'days' as a part of our culture. not that it means that we dont value these relations - just that i would have loved to have more days to celebrate these lovely relations! its the same as having a birthday - its not that you dont love that person the rest of the 364 days - but that day makes him/her feel extra special!! and what's life if not a collection of these small moments of feeling 'special' to someone... so am all for all these 'days' - tho' pls i do draw a line at celebrating 'boss day'!!! :-) Anyways - back to the topic "My Daddy Strongest!!" - this line never failed to make me smile everytime i saw it on TV... Its always strange for me to describe my relation with my dad... am the youngest of 3... dad was 38 when i was born... busy struggling to keep a roof over the family's head having left his family business ...

Chauvinism rears its head again...

Maybe had just got spoilt with the lull on this front ... but when faced with an in-ur-face display of chauvinism happened, i was yet again caught by surprise! why do i keep getting surprised still after so many years, i dont know... maybe am just too slow in my head!! ;-) in my head - an educated, corporate professional who's been in existence in this current world scenario - when asked 'do your sisters work?' DOES NOT reply with an 'of course not!' in my head - the above described person DOES NOT insist on 'homely' (read : non-working) as a pre-requisite for his life-partner! in my head - the above described person is fictional!! :o) but no - with my luck - trust me to run into this person... and since i firmly believe that there's always a reason why anything happens in life... i shall aim to look for reasons here as well... 1. had to remember the lessons learnt in body language (limp handshake = limp mind and who knows limp what else!!) he he!! 2. h...
