Morning Coffee



Woke up on time still I was running late

Almost skipped the breakfast but couldn't skip my coffee! Rushed to the kitchen, made a cup of coffee "Too hot to drink right away" I thought.


So I moved to drawing area, to polish my shoes, then to my room to tie my hair. Now I just wanted to have my coffee. I went back to grab it but wait, "did I pack my lunch and what about tank, is it full?" I again left it unattainded!


The coffee waited, when it wasn't ready,  when it was ready and when it lost its essence. It just waited. The moment I hold the coffee mug I knew,  I made it wait for too long. 


Disappointments don't turn into new hopes everyday. So better we should not let ourselves wait for what matters. You can't put anything first and value that the least and then regret. Right time isn't about the perfect timing. Perfect timing occurs when things are done timely.

सैनिक

तुम कठिन अभ्यास करते हो, हम गर्व कर लेते हैं तुम सरहदों की रक्षा करते हो, हम गर्व कर लेते हैं  हर त्यौहार, घर-परिवार भूल कर,  तुम प्रतिपल संघर्ष करते हो, हम गर्व कर लेते हैं  कब किस गोली पर लिखा हो नाम  तुम्हारा ,  तुम बिन परवाह किए,  धुप, बारिश, तूफान में  माँ भारत का सजदा करते हो, हम गर्व कर लेते हैं    शहादत पर तुम्हारी हम परवाह करें ना करें, पर हम गर्व कर लेते हैं  संतुष्ट कर लेते हैं हम खुद को, जो दोगुने सैनिक दुश्मन के मारे जाए  शर्मिंदा हैं हम, कैसे जीवन की कीमत तुम्हारी कम कर देते हैं  कुछ और शायद कर नहीं सकते, इसलिए हम गर्व कर लेते हैं!

The Guilt I didn't earn

It wasn’t the perfect friendship. It went through all the ups & downs. But it was old like an old photograph of childhood, it may be blurred, dirty & even ugly but it’s precious & when it’s lost it’s always painful.  We have been friends from the third grade. We never even allowed anyone else sit beside us in school. From the gossip of school to the heartbreaks, from the craziest fantasy to the deepest insecurity, every blunder we made with tiniest detail, we had shared everything. We were a rare bond of two people who could actually understand each other with no judgments. We had lived almost two decades with each other. We had witnessed each other’s hard work & experienced the journey of two silly girls turning into the women with ambitions. We often had something to complain about each-other just like normal human beings, but it never been enough to give up on our friendship. Years passed and our bond became precious to us. We both got so occupied with the ch...

Uninvited Hopes

It was a day of july, heavy rain was expected, the sky was covered with black clouds & it was no longer a sunny day.  The shops were closing, the hawkers were wrapping their stuff, people were returning to their homes & I was headed to meet you. Unaware of my destiny I left home with a bag, water bottle, umbrella & a scarf.  After standing for 15 minutes on bus stops in heavy rain & irresistible wind I realized that I had expected too much from the bus service. But I couldn't go back to home without submitting my form for the admission.  Being a procrastinator, it wasn't new for me to rush at the very last moment but this time I actually thought I won't be able to make it.  I finally got on the bus & reached to the stop you told me and you called me at the very right moment saying; "Where are you? Would you be able to reach on time? Okay just follow the directions"  Running towards the building, all with my wet clothes and wet shoes I almost ...
