WONDERS OF NATURE

Nature! Not a single sight to quetch from where I stand;
Along the riverside, my feet on cold rocks;
Following the river, it took me to bliss.
Flowers, trees, leaves,
How quietly and wonderfully it transmute;
How air and current of air balance,
Creating melody to every ears;
And a breeze to take away worries.
I am astonished to see how trees grow silently,
How rock, sand, soil has different textures but find a common ground,
How the grass loves to retain on grass though every living being step on them,
And how it finds a way to grow every opportunity it gets.
How leaves do nothing but produces joy,
How rivers and streams always find a path and flows day and night;
Without a break it flows to reach its destination.
How a lake is contended with itself and remains still.
These magic always keeps me wondering,
Perhaps these wonders shall never end.

Movie Review (Arraignment of men)

Mary Kom is a movie based on real story of a professional boxer called MC Mary Kom. It shows about the struggle and less privilege a women should go through just because of gender. The hardship she faced not only from society but also from her family based on the typical mentality that women as sportsperson is not regarded in the society brought her to the lowest level.She didn't get support from family especially from her father but she didn't quit for the world. Only with disappointment and hatred she rose to the top. Today she is a five time world amateur boxing champion and the only woman boxer to have won a medal in each of the six world championships and also the only Indian woman boxer to get a gold medal in the Asian Olympics.I would be wrong to say that she is not respected today for her achievements and hard work. But is her hard work really paid off? Is the society regarding her for what she has patriotically done for the nation? Is she given maximum credits for what she deserve? Well, forget about the illiterate people of the country. Even many young intellects of the country who brakes about sports doesn't even know who Mary Kom is or what she has done in bringing good name to the nation. I should say many Indians is still ignorant to the works she's contributing in inspiring today's youth as a professional sportsperson.  .

This movie sets a feminist statement as it gives a message to the world that women too have a respectable place in a society.They can make their own decision and take charge of their lives.

Red wheel Barrow

After school, the street would be filled with drooling faces of children. Well I was one of them. The much anticipated bell would ring far from the street. The man with the Red wheel barrow also popularly known as the "Ice-cream Man" would come to save the day with his cold ice creams every afternoon. Days were good and we had joy in everything that we did and these cheap ice creams were the luxury for the day. I still see the old "Ice cream man" with his old rugged and faded companion "The red wheel barrow". Though he has lost his fame to the overwhelming force of time, still he rings the bell and come to save the day persistently. Children now are smarter and brilliant and they have the technology that provides them every bit of pleasure and luxury instantly without having the need to move their muscles. The once famed "Ice cream man" to them is just a ragged old man with prehistoric wooden cart. They do not know about the world where technologies had least conquered. The cramps in our muscles, the sweats in our body and the chill of the ice cream down our guts on a hot sunny day, how would they know about it when they live in a world confined in a square box of bricks and concrete with sets of devices. How would they know about a man who had seen the smiles of little faces of many generations. He had saved our days in the past and now I buy from him to save his day. Indeed the world is changing faster than ever but it is sad to see the former things withering away and disappearing right in front of my eyes who had first-hand experience in that tradition.

Total overdose

I just had an amazing friday like I do everyweek. I sneak out after dinner and just like old good days some high school buddies turned up for a meet. Besides the busy schedule in college, surprisingly all the invited buddies turned up. It was no other than some douche from old school.Besides they are my best buddies and will always be. It was a hell of a night. We started to reminence how we use to roll in our old days and tried to relive it for the night by doing all the crazy things. I was known as 'beer tank' in my past and just like that I was forced to do beer compilation. Just to uphold my reputation I accepted the challenge. My squad seems so happy but slowly everybody got drunk. The last scene I could remember was having some shots of John barleycorn.Well, magically I found myself in my bed the moment I got back from my sense. As peaceful as death I went to sleep. Clock ticking vibrantly and I woke up suddenly because of the barking dogs outside.Suddenly I heard someone jumping in the fence.Everything became pin drop silent and my heart beat started to raise when I hear someone walking towards my door. The moment the person started knocking my door I got a chill allover my body and I remained froze for a moment. I reach out for my phone to see the time and it was sharp 2 O'clock. I was so helpless until when I saw a bottle of Jack Daniels lying in the floor of my room. I took some heavy shots to make my body warm. I took a cricket bat and walked slowly toward the door. As soon as I open the door, a cold hand tried to touch my feet and as I was about to freak out he started to calm me down. It was none other than my younger brother. I was confused of him showing up at that hour but before I could even utter a word he hushed me and reach out for his bag. I was so overwhelmed and relieved after seeing a case of Calsberg beer and pizza  and a warm whisper to my ears, Bro! It's Ufc night.
The night just got EPIC.

Our love for nature

Our love for nature, has its roots,
It offers life, it offers fruits.
Not just beauty, it's way beyond,
A peaceful lake or just a pond.
Our love for nature, keeps us close,
Rocks erode, as the river flows.
From a hilltop, to the sea,
Towards the sky, grows a tree.
Our love for nature, gives us peace,
Seasons change, flying geese.
Nature shall thrive, if we combine,
Your love for it, along with mine.

The Mirror

Monday, 25.05.2012, the clock was striking 12; it was the beginning of another day. After a long tiring day of school, I finally set off to bed to rest my head. I felt so much relieved to stretch out on bed. I thought I could sleep for ages. Nothing could possibly wake me up, I was sure. The last thing I remember was me rolling myself into sleep. Then there it came, “the knock”.

It took me another 15 minutes to open my eyes. It was dark, but somehow i made my way to the door. I opened the door and found nobody there. Annoyed, I made my way back to the bed. I was trying to get back to my sleep and then I hear it again, the knock, it came in threes. I realised it wasn’t from the door. I got up and followed the sound and there I stood, in front of the mirror. The room was completely dark, lit by no light. But the mirror, it showed me,” My Reflection”.

I knew it was against all principles of nature. I was not supposed to believe what I was seeing. But i just wanted to live the moment, for it was magical! It was not that I had never seen myself in mirror before but it was different? I went to take a closer look. No, It wasn’t me, I said to myself. We both gazed into each other’s eyes. I couldn’t stop myself from touching it. Slowly, I reached my hand to its.  To my surprise I could feel the hand. Then i could feel myself pulled into the mirror. For some reason i don’t know, i didn’t stop myself.  When i opened my eyes, I found myself in a place where i had never been. And the there stood beside me, “My Reflection”.

Yes, it was beside me, my own reflection standing beside me in person. I could not take my eyes off it. I did not question its existence neither did I feel it was a dream. I stood there just looking at it. It was flawless. It looked like something I had always wanted to be. Then we started talking to each other. It said how badly it wanted me to be in its world. It would wake up every morning to see me sleeping.The Mirror was the only obstruction between us. That day however it made up its mind to wake me up. It took me all around it world and showed how things were. Things were exactly how i wanted it to be in my world. It kept saying to me that I was not supposed to be in there and was very nervous. Then i heard a screeching sound of a door and looked back. It said “Dont...”. The next second, there I stood in front of the Mirror where it all started.
