At the coffee shop

Had a coffee with my friend Kiran, We had a little chat for a while &  at the end, we added something more to it with the paper cups and stuffs before it goes to the trash.
Just like a human life - To stand for something with all you got before thrown out.

Chasing Dreams....

A running scooter at the pit stop

Varun at his mid 30's never stepped out for a morning walk since 2003. He sat down on a wooden beach after a long walk in the park. He felt so relaxed, he was completely on that moment, feeling the rays of the morning sun touching his face through the mildest layer of sweat over the skin, breathing with his eyes closed and lips smiling like a man who is free from everything. He touched his medium sided belly and recollected when was the last time he tried to do a workout, It was 6 years back - exactly a month before his marriage and the workout didn't even lasted to the next day. He just laughed at himself.

The laugh, which made him to recollect his past life, a busy running metro life which started right from first day he joined a job. The day he started losing himself into the word so called reality, threatened by psychologically structured corporate words. The clock kept going, so does his scooter. Burden kept growing, so does his scooter.  He couldn't just believe himself that he is not on his scooter alone anymore, coz there is someone who is there to hold his shoulder and a little girl holding the handle bar standing right in front ( Varun should look her before taking every turn). Things went worse that the running scooter cannot take anymore, Throughout the year Varun spoke only about work pressures to his wife and  his summer went busy thinking about appraisal  instead of playing with his little daughter. He just lost himself completely, controlled like a chess coin whose steps are classified. Things kept going the same way until a day.

The day his scooter gave him the wake up call. The day he fell from it while he was rushing to office. He knew that he missed death by inches. He couldn't figure out his injury until someone from the crowd said that "Its just few scratches here and there". He remembered something and made a phone call despite the pain. The call connected, It took a second for him to fight the pain and say hello but a voice shouted, an usual shout starting from 'highly disappointed' to 'will be fired', a shout which meant a lot for Varun that day and call disconnected without hearing a word back. Varun looked at his  phone screen, Boss : 0.34 secs. The call ended, There was a pause for few seconds. He cried looking at the mobile screen, the picture of his smiling wife and daughter as the wallpaper. it took some time under the scorching sun to settle his mind. He sat on the road side with a questing mark which was trying to erupt, a plain symbol  "?" which made every other things blank. He looked at the scooter which ran along with him, he stood with the broken indicator lights and scratches. He smiled thinking about himself.

That night, with his wife sitting next to him, his daughter sleeping on his lap, he spoke, he spoke what ever he missed to say her over years. he said that will quit the job and start of a new beginning, a new life with happiness and asked for her opinion. She didn't replied, instead she leaned her face on his shoulder holding his arm, like she is going it hold it forever.

A brand new beginning,. oops sorry. a new beginning, back to the park.He had no idea what to start with his little saving but he know how he is going to lead his life.

The phone ringed, an usual call from wife to the husband to buy some groceries when he leaves out for an early walk. He smiled and walked back home, may be with a little dream, with a little routine life,  or something. but life, its going to be happy forever.....

Reaching a dream

A dream keeps your day alive, It gives a purpose for life. Well everyone have dreams some way or the other, People name it different, a dream to become something,to do something. It is mentally referred to be a place which brings you happiness once it is achieved. but that's where people struggle in their way, some give up when they find their dream so hard and so far.

A dream is something that always appears to be in the future. People see it as a goal, a destination to be reached. Its obviously true but the path is more important, It lies in the present. When someone finds happiness in his present, satisfaction with what he did every day, Then the path appears beautiful. No matter how big or far the dream is, every day gives you hope and every moment looks beautiful. You will still find your dream somewhere tomorrow. but today, it appears great than you ever imagine,slowly you are building yourself and your dream.

Night ?

Night, It appears calm for a poet, long for a girl in love, nightmare for a baby in fear,its all dark and still dark for every one. It make no difference. Its all about what you think of yourself. Its just a reflection of you and your mind. You grow up and you still find that baby one night, a poet on another night and it goes on. Its the matter of belief. That night doesn't show you new things. It show you what you really are, What you really are.  

World beyond you.

I was brought up with expectations about this beautiful world where my mom taught love and my teachers taught good manners. It led me to dream a world where I would live in the future, where one can see happiness inside every heart, where peace spread like the wind and people live with the nature with complete freedom, where every one treat others like their own and share everything from their heart, where words like hate and war be seen only on books and not inside humans, A world where every one wakes with a hope and sleep with complete fulfillment in their mind . 

But when I grew. Things where not the same. The World was far different from what I have imagined. It looked like that dream would always be a dream. 

Then it reminded me some thing. I cant change the world. But I had hope that some day it would. All I decided was let me live a life what I wish. A life with love. From then on, Things changed slowly the way I wished to see this world. 

Irreversible life

Life is irreversible, Every one would have made lot many mistakes. I have done a lot. Mistakes that we always wanted to go back with time, make it right to make a perfect life and become a perfect man. But the truth is, no one can be perfect.

I sat down one day and started recollecting my memories right from my childhood. Obviously there were lot of mistakes but as my thinking process went deep, I realized that the time has given me lot of good memories with people around me.

My dad used to take me to a nearby beach on a borrowed bicycle when I was a kid. The day I took my new born baby sister on my hands and looked at my mom who was smiling at me lying on the hospital bed. Memories with many friends who played a major role in my life and plenty little memories that made me smile whenever I think.

Now I am happy that life is irreversible. It can never take me all the good things that happened, those special people who came across and along with my life. I can now accept my mistakes with no regrets and move along happily with this beautiful life.

Despite many hard happenings,  your life would have a collection of sweet memories with sweet people which can never be taken back.

Dreams

I was dreaming big right from my childhood. Don't know how and why?  I dreamed.  It was always about my tomorrow giving me hope to achieve.  Now what I see is today where it makes me feel that I have every thing that universe has. Not more nor less. Love from every one and love form the nature .  It keeps my mind healthy.

The ocean is not so far and i am flowing with the river, Working with my beautiful present for a better tomorrow where dreams are achieved beyond just words. 

Thanks for reading, Have a great day.
