Never say Never : This year's resolution

And now we entered in 2012, a new year. Someone might think that 1st January is just another day, what is the need to celebrate?
In his own thinking he might be correct but just think this way, We need to refuel ourselves in order to work properly; We need to feel something new to keep our hope up, We need to believe that anything wrong happened in the past will not repeat in future; We need to give ourselves a second chance that Yeah! I can do it this year; We can make resolutions to make ourselves better personalities; We can surely believe that this year will bring us joy and success; We can hope.
And yeah! this is the reason why 1st January is so important.

I'm not sure, exactly why did I write such a lengthy poem? Actually I wrote this poem in several parts in several forms of poetry. But yes I do know the reason why I started writing it. I was actually worried about some of my closed ones, who were feeling so low that they were not able to think the right way. By low, I mean "Negative". What I learned from life is, come what may never lose your hope, never lose your smile for some unworthy doubts, never lose your cool for some unworthy calamities. Just stand still and face the challenges, face them bravely. I'm not sure if many of you will like this poem, though if you like it please pass this message and pat the back of your loved ones, who are feeling low too.

Lets hope, in this year we won't look back; we won't lose our hopes and we won't quit fighting back our "little" problems.

 

She said there is no more hope now,
I kept asking myself she is saying this, but how?
I always laugh for a single ray of hope
But she negates me saying now she can't cope

All the way long, I looked into the past
Who am I? Till when am I gonna last?
And then something struck me so hard
Do good, be positive and be the same bard

Why are you serious? Why can you not smile?
Reasons can keep pushing on already high pile.
Its your vision how you look around
Don't bury yourself under the stressful mound

Just look around again, a lot of flowers out there
They are all for you, nature certainly is a wonderful player
It provided us with all the things that we might need
Now its upto us what we do and how we lead?

Don't let yourself down anytime
Actually I don't know how to rhyme
Trust yourself, keep your hope up
You'll see soon success in your cup [:D]

Why to worry? Why to fear and Why to blame?
But don't give excuses that are actually lame
Sun sets daily, but we wait till the dawn
This is the hope, otherwise everything will be gone

Never give up, keep doing your task
You got the talent buddy, why can't you bask?
Now get up and never look back
There is nothing you ever lack

Even you are inferior, why to worry and why to shout?
Nothing is impossible, you can easily work it out.
Never fear of hard work, never fear of physical pain
Improve yourself,its said "if no pain then no gain"

Things might go wrong, you might still lose
Hope must never die, you ain't any goose

Even your dreams seem to be fade
Never give up the fight
You won't ever lose
Just hang on tight

Never give up on you buddy
Never forget who you are
There is nothing you can't do
you're a shining star

You are a king within yourself
And a "will" that can never be broken
Your "will" can't be defeated anyhow
This much I know for the angels in Heaven have spoken

Life is complex
Never happens anything assumed
No one knows who is next
in the line to be doomed

Remember you’ll survive whatever life brings
And your spirit will shine so bright
Cause hard work is its key
And hope is tower of the light

Even in the worst condition,
There isn't a lot you can do
to change the scene, to change the pain
You can do a little
and a little at a time
eventually makes a big difference

p.s. - This poem might bore you, but I want you to take the essence and that is "Never Give Up, Keep smiling and Don't afraid of hard work"

Making "The Day"

A compliment to sweeper, who just made the floor shine, will surely make his day. Just few words from heart "Chamka diya apne to ise! Mast!"
 
A compliment to the gardener, who planted some beautiful flower plants a few weeks ago and whose hard work turned out in form of beauty of colorful roses, will surely make his day. Just few words from heart "Badhiya gulab lagaye hain bhaiya!"

A compliment to garbage collector from the street, who just cleaned your surroundings, will surely make his day. Just few words from heart "Achcha kam kiya bhaiya!"

An applause when someone shows an act of honesty; being not active for the act would have benefited that person, yet he did it. Just few words from heart "Thank you! Just be the same forever! You are a true human being." We should follow such persons, who are really honest. 

A comment to your student, who could not do good in his exams, will surely make his day. Just few words from heart "Koi nai, exams to chalte rahte hain, agli bar aur achche se mehnat karna." This will encourage him, not to worry about the past but to eye for a bigger goal in future.

For a person, support from a fellow, when he is fumbled in his presentation, will surely make his day. Just few words from heart "Hang on buddy! Have confidence in yourself." (I witnessed this happening with me and some other friends too.)

A compliment to a social activist, going to start his new project, will surely make his day. Just few words from heart "Badhiya hai! Tum aage badho, hum tumhare sath hain."

 
There can be a lot more examples from our daily life, which many times we don't even care and life just goes on & on. We must think "Where are we leading to?"

Many times people just say "This is their duty. They are doing this because they have to do", but the point is "Are they doing enthusiastically?" or "Just doing their job because they have to do it." Everybody needs some amount of pampering, sometimes a single line will do. 

All the above said statements can be exchanged among any kind of persons, irrespective of their social status. Its a moral support. You need not to move your big body but tongue; your words will be more effective than anything else. Even many times a smile will do.

In this fast forward life, we have forgotten all the emotions. We are forgetting all our social duties. We are human after all, we need to learn to encourage the people around us to make this society a better place to live.

These were only few examples of possible conversation among "Human beings", there occur a lot of moments where you can show some gratitude or respect. Somehow these are "Gratitude from human to human", "Applause from a human to another", "Respect from one human being to other one". What is the big deal?

Just few words from heart can be magical.

Any person can be on other side of table so quickly, please think through that once "How much these compliments will matter to you after you are on the opposite end".

In true sense, this is life- "Sharing your feelings, showing some gratitude, receiving respect for your generous acts, in total "Being Human"."

Can't we stop suicides, that occur due to mental frustration? Can't we remove stress from our fellow passenger's life? Actually we are losing the actual meaning of life. We need to wake up now, Why can't we spend sometime in clapping for others? Why can't we pat someone's back? Why can't we bear someone's progress? Can't we share few good words? Can't we pass a happy smile to others? On a serious note, we must learn before it all turn to debris.


p.s. - "Few compliments/comments on the post by a blogger, who writes from his heart, will surely make his day [:D][:D]" (you know what I meant!)

p.p.s. - This post is inspired after I co-related my wishes to gardener who planted a lot of beautiful roses of different colors in our hostel, though a government body and "Jadu ki Jhappi by Sanjay Dutt to a sweeper in film - Munna Bhai M.B.B.S."

p.p.p.s. - I'm in learning phase of English, so please let me know about any blunder I've made in any of the post. 

A Labyrinth called LIFE

Hey people!! here comes my first post..the content of the post was written some time back...with me was my sombre mood, a pile of my failed efforts, fear of disappointing some important people in my life...so it flowed out instantaneously and effortlessly out of my perplexed thoughts...

I wish life could turn out the way I wanted

at every step it could show me what I had already foreseen...

but then life questioned me..how I could be so mean

and not let my soul experience the adventure of the unseen...

I told life I get bored of you so fast..

everyday I want to celebrate a brand new success..

everyday I want to have a new blast.

life retorted back...I am worried how long will you actually last.

I told life I didn't accept the way it hit me on the face

when i thought the world was mine..

life said it wanted to teach me patience

and the fact that eventually everything falls in line.

I asked life why it created for someone inexplicable love in my heart

when the thought of parting felt like a piercing dart.

when the day he is not mine..I feel like the end of this world divine..

life said all answers I cant give you.

what you say might be absolutely true..

but let some mysteries remain..

or God's purpose of creating the world would be in vain....

My First IndiBlogger Meet @ Delhi

Finally I could attend IndiBlogger meet @ Delhi, apart from few facts like "Delhi is 200 miles from my city" and my father asked me not go as this "reading and writing" is not suitable for my age. :) Ofcourse he is worried "Beta faltu ke kaamo mein na pad jaye" :D

I reached Connaught Place before scheduled time of meet, around 12:45 PM after 5 hours of journey and found out that Jantar Mantar is in front of The Park Hotel, where a symbolic strike and a debate on Lokpal was organized by Team Anna. I bought an Anna Topi and get my cheek painted in Tri Color, wandered around Jantar Mantar for some time and then finally reached my destination.

I attracted a lot of bloggers due to my Tri Color tattoo and Anna Topi

The ambiance was mind boggling. I was pretty excited to meet all the faces behind those legendary words, which I read daily. So the blogger meet started with a presentation from HP and then there was 30 seconds introduction by every blogger. There were almost 200 of bloggers.

Before moving on, let me tell you one incident on facebook, after I posted that I'll be attending the IndiBlogger meet:

My Status: "This Sunday @ IndiBlogger Meet at The Park, Connaught Place, New Delhi"

My Friends' Comments:

1: "Sare zeher ka badla liya jaega wahaan is bar"

2: "Free ka khana khane ja rahe ho"

3: "Bahut dasa hai hame ab fasega wahaan jakar"
4: "Dasai ki machine"

[FYI- In my college, there is little low tradition of writing and specially when you talk about Philosophy, it is called "Dasai" as no one is interested in that and from "Dasai" comes the "Zeher"] 

But I was not scared at all as I knew "Mujhse bhi bade dassu aaenge wahaan to :P" [Don't mind :D :)]

Glass is half full

Doubts, Questions, Criticism they somehow become parts of initiation step of any process. Main point is how you tackle them & the answer is you just need to stay focused and optimistic for your aim. Come what may, don't ever let any distraction touch you.

Questions just arise from nowhere and yet they have a deep impact in heart to make it worried for no "Actual reason". Don't let these monsters hurt your sacred goal. Just check once for the credibility of the source and you'll see that you're going on the right way. Questions never stop popping, although they're as big or small as you make them in your head. Joys or sorrows don't come by as often, but it's still upto us how big or small they become, and how much we make them mean.

Doubts, just like hurt or pain, feel like those omnipresent entities who stay at the background all the time, and rush to the surface at the slightest opening or invitation. Don't let them enter in your vision, they are big distractions, sometimes cause delay yet sometime they just turn the whole plan into debris. 

Don't ever let any such thing happen to you. Just see around you, Life moves on. Sometimes bad things happen, very bad things, that is time for you to trust yourself, your capabilities since Good is always there somewhere also. Any day is full of experiences, just learn from them.

Now its upto you what you wanna pick, there are all types of possibilities in this world. You can either say "Glass is half empty" or you can emphasize on "Glass is half full". Before making up your mind and just think for atleast once, is it worth giving away all your energy to one doubt? Is it worth to give away all your enthusiasm to one damn irrelevant question?

Let your Glass always half full.

The very first thought!

Whenever you see an unclaimed property, what is the first thought in you mind [If you noticed that item and if the thing is nice :D]  "Who left this here?" and certainly you want to look around for the probable owner. Somehow there is a joy if nobody is likely to be the one :D. Now the next thing is the courage of touching it. You slowly move towards it and at the last moment two persons pop out of your head "Evil" and "Angel"
So what does Evil say [his words are precise and will not confuse you in any sense] "If that person does not care then why do you, come on! come on! take it"
And now the Angel one starts murmuring in its defense "You are not the real owner, this thing does not belong to you. Don't touch it!"
Evil insists and give a logic - "Now-a-days no one cares about anyone else, if you were the owner it would have gone by now, go on pick it up you fool. If you won't, then some one else would."
Angel now touches a nerve - "You would be sad if your precious thing had lost in such a way, so don't do such thing which you don't expect for yourself, so don't take it."

And it goes on, now you need to decide which side you want to be on and somehow it matters how early you choose your side.

So the very first thought matters a lot.

What I stated as Evil might not be the "Evil" in many cases and hence it makes the differences.
Somehow even if you don't pick that object yet the time taken in deciding matters. Many times your actions are not everything that represents you, self satisfaction matters.
