A walk down the memory lane.

Past couple of days have been an incredible time for me. I got a rare chance of going back in time and reliving the moments I had cherished in my past. Whether it was hanging out with friends and their families or visiting the places which had deep roots in my life, it was all amazing. I was repeating the moments from past days in my head and it was then that I realised the  importance of these couple of days for me. I never wanted to relive my past days. I only wanted to go back to the old places to see for myself, one more time, that those days and moments which have had such strong impressions on my mind had actually occurred. They were really existing. I am not unhappy with my present. I have everything I wanted in my past. Visiting those places only made it more real. I  don't think anyone wants to live the way they were doing in the past. The need for moving forward is so great that we hardly actually look behind. But one pause and a look around shows how much things have

Let it go...

With 2015 nearing its end...I have found myself standing on the threshold of an ending and a beginning. Nothing from my past has remained the same today and nothing from my present will remain the same in future. The need to hang onto the the present can be termed as emotionally desperate.  But no one wants change.  No one wants to grow up. The simple amateur ways were a bliss. The maturity only makes things complex. I have so many emotions towards my past...some are good others are not that great. And wouldn't you like to just go back once and alter a minor detail here and there??? I would... But since you can't...the only way is your heart's way. And all I ask my heart today is to be an amateur in every moment. I want it to let go of its pain and embrace life in its reality. Hopefully in the coming year everyone will find the courage to let go of their heart's pain and understand... it was never meant to be taken seriously. The key was and always will be to let it g

Adam (Introduction)

Have you ever believed in a supreme power? Do you think there is someone greater than all of this? That you are just a part of a great plan. If you haven't... then why? If you have... Then what if I say you are right. What if I say, "there is a supreme power which is greater than you" . There is a great plan. There is someone who is not only greater than you but is so powerful that he created you and everything around you. You know him as your father. You know him as your protector. You know him as GOD! But you really don't know him. He never  shows himself. Yet he never ceases to exist. Every step ahead in your life is an intangible realization of his powers. Or is it all just a feeling? The world was created thousands of years ago. And you might be amazed to know that it was not planned but a string of coincidences that created it. And that the creator was infact just playing around at the time when he accidentally created it. The Genesis. Episode 1 :

I am good at heart.

Its really strange how fast world around you changes. People who were once your heartthrob seem so strange. Not because there is a change of opinion or thought process but because you have both drifted  apart with time.Maybe that's the part of growing up. You move on with change and move on from everybody else. I wonder what our forefathers fought for. Was it for a community full of beings who would learn to survive for their own-self or was it for everybody to grow as a community. I have witnessed such events throughout my life where not the strangers but so called people who designate themselves as relatives would come to you with world full of love and affection just so they can gain from you. But the moment its time to return the favour they become cold and indifferent. At that moment its not even the blood or family name we share.There is nothing except for a cold, harsh reality that they never cared enough for anyone but themselves. All they always cared was this selfish int

Cherry & Berry

5/10/2015 Our family welcomed two newest members in the family. Cherry & Berry. They are the cutest puppies I have seen so far. But being born and raised for 30 days in a farm had given them all kind of fleas and parasites imaginable. So the first task for us when they entered our house was to get them clean. We started with cleaning them in water with dettol and  pulling the parasites out with bare hands only to find later that they are not the right way to do things. On their fourth day they visited their vet along with me, my mother and brother in a taxi cab. The vet declared them healthy and prevented, much to their delight,their bath for the next two months. So dry clean them and put an anti-flea talc and they were good to go. Also we found that they were not pure breeds. For some people it could be a let down.After all who likes mixed breed.Their puppies don't even make for a good sale. So I decided, upon the vet's advise, that to prevent their hormonal imbalan

The Absent mind

The absent mind is looking for a reason to believe,that the reason it is so naive,lies in the boundaries unknown.It has created a portrait where the different colours of life are not making sense to even itself. From the centre to its edge, it is wandering aimlessly,creating ripples,also where they  are not meant to be created.Distorting everything on its way,its moving,sometimes as slow as smoke and sometimes as fast as light.It believes that when everything will settle eventually, there would be a picture that would make sense.It will have a reason for everything around it,every colour that is in there will have a purpose,it will all make sense like a map for a treasure hunt.The uncertainty lies in the fact that whether or not what hides as treasure is meaningful for it or not.It could so happen that the ultimate reason behind creating ripples is to keep a picture from being created.The fear of finding out an unmeaning treasure is far more greater than the familiarity of an unfounde

Being content

It is crucial to understand, in order to be happy, that being content with small things in life is much more important than dreaming of being content with dreams we want to achieve in future.

The Zero Hour

Date: 30th Aug 2015 Writer: Stuti Sharma                                                                                                           The Zero Hour It was a warm evening in Mumbai. Dr. Ashok was deeply occupied in his work when the door of the lab opened. He looked up to see his daughter enter the labs. “So what is an astrophysicist doing in the labs of nuclear research? “He asked his daughter smiling. “A daughter is looking for her old father actually”, She said teasingly to him. He chuckled without moving eyes from his work. “Papa, Lets go. I am starving.” “One minute dear. I am nearly done.” “Okay…” Ashmin started to look around his office. It was like any other researcher’s office. His equipment covered most of the part. The walls were covered with formulas and flow charts for chemical compounds. Most of his work was complete except for the one in the middle of the wall. It was an equation which was incomplete. She went near it

Ilaa

Date:30 th   July 2015 Writer: Stuti Sharma                                                                              Ilaa Close to the city of Paithan, in a small village called Sauviragram, which lay along the banks of the great river Godavari, lived a woman named Ilaa. Being cotton farmers, her family was well to do, but not among the richest in their area. It was the harvest season, and cotton had to be picked from the plants. The wholesalers and traders from Paithan would be arriving in just a few weeks, carrying gold and goods for barter. They would exchange what they carried for the cotton that the farmers grew. The bales of cotton had to be ready in time! Work was at its peak! But Ilaa was not to be found in the fields. She wasn't working. Instead, she was sitting by the banks of the great river Godavari. 'I am sick of this!' she grunted loudly. There was a cold breeze blowing. Winter was near. It is a time when everything is in a bit of

Time

With a time elapse of around ten months since I quit my job one would finally understand what they want to do in their life.I was sure that the decision of quitting my job and taking the time off to decide on the things I really want to do in life was a wise decision. I knew what I wanted to do and I was completely sure that it was going to work out.So today when I meet an old friend I run to the opposite direction lest they see my face and recognize me. You will think why? I mean why should you run from a friend? That's so stupid. Well its not if you are terrified to answer their most important and "who you actually are" going to define question , "so,what are you doing these days?" The moment I hear it, the person in front of me is no more visible. All I can see is myself doing something I quit my job for...

A chapter...

Lately I have come to an understanding that nobody really knows what happened in the past.The history books that we have been reading for so long are not accurate. They might have been tampered with and maybe not showing the complete picture. So maybe everything that we read and write are not completely true.And if that is the case then why are we so eager to know about the truth that upon learning it, sometimes, we are eager to twist it to fit the general notions. What is the truth? Is it our present? Is it our past? It's certainly not our future. Then what? I have always wondered what is my part in this world? Am I an important person? Or am I important only for those who I call family and friends? Then again am I really that important in life of my friends? People who will go on without me. I don't know. But I know this... I can be weak,I can be imperfect but I won;t be lost. People who knew me and still know me will alwa
