Train - A mock bigger journey

Train journey is always exciting
It teaches you a lot of things
Both things to do and to avoid also
The place resembles a war zone during peak time
And a deserted coffee shop during other times
People push each other in an effort to reach their destination on time
They do it in their individual stress
They use it as a place to vent out their frustrations
They push and pull to get a small place in the train
It reminds me of the challenges we have every day
To gain a small place in this competitive world
They sometimes fight for other people also
How much actually get this chance
Or do it in our lives
They stand for each other with the same intensity of fighting
We might do this only for our closed ones
But for complete strangers is a no go
Some people keep staring and grumbling whatever happens
Some people are calm and smiling
Different people , Different emotions
Yet all stick together till the end of their journey
It reminds me of life and the bigger journey
Yet 20 minutes of journey teaches me
The valuable lessons of life
Fight for you right
Yet be calm and enjoy life
Life might get suffocated and crowded at times
But it will blow away soon

And we will reach our destination on time

It does not happen with a single person or with a single incidence. The conversation process is continuous and can happen till our last breath. We get better and better with age and experience. I have never managed to understand when a person reaches his best. Maybe the level is unattainable. Still changes, both ups and downs happen throughout our lives. I remember an innocent hyper girl who wore sensitivity on her sleeve. The smallest spark was enough to set her on fire. She was on the extreme of emotions. The emotions can range from Happiness, sorrow, loneliness and anger. Still the emotions controlled her and stole her sleep many nights. ...

Digital India - A shortcut to Safer India

Digital India – A vision by the government, An expectation by the youth, A mystery for the public What does digital India mean? This question which pops into everyone’s mind and heart when they hear the term. It may also seem as an unattainable fruit to some. This is true to some extent. But this will definitely create a great change in the life of every individual. More than anything, I see this as stepping stone towards a safer nation. Safe nation is slowly becoming a distant dream. Some blame the women. Some blame the men. But maybe both and to some extent the nation as a whole is also responsible. Men harass women because they think they are helpless and vulnerable. Women allow this because they think men are stronger. Indians are not heartless enough to allow a crime happen right in front of their nose. Sometimes they become worried about the consequences of helping others. Thanks to the laws and corruption. I have always wondered what would be the hope and thought of a ...
