A story behind making of a brochure

I dont know when you were born
I dont know who caused your beginning
I dont know the reason behind your birth
I did not even know you before a year
I never ever expected you to know you
Nor to like you so much
I never knew you will become so important to me or maybe us
You were just like anyother thing in the beginning
You were just a bunch of items put together
I never understood the purpose
Nor could decipher the meaning
I felt like you were a tradition passed over to us
We even forgot about you
In the chaos of work
You were just a part of the weekly report and the occasional joke
There were times we thought you were never going to happen
You were just a part of the multitude of papers
Suddenly, one fine day
You came to life
With vigour and enegry
When questions were raised about you
We realized how clueless we were
When deadlines were given
We got into mindless and aimless working
And managed to finish you on time
Before we could breathe
Came the biggest blow in the form
In a flow of questions
Who is the target audience
Little did we know that it was the beginning
On the many questions or editions to come
Or should i say version V1.infinity
We were beaten up
We were questioned

We were given repeated deadlines
We were put to test
We were tried beyond our strength
We were mocked at
You made us fight among ourselves
you made us stand for each other
You actually grew on us
 There were times when everything seemed hopeless
There were times when you made me feel
That you were unattainable
We thought you were a five year plan
And we were just passers by
Everyone in their limit put a barrier in your path
Be it small or big
Suddenly everything fell in place
Like magic everything became right
After a big war, We fought
Smaller ones were cake walk
Be it a cost or font
We pulled it through
When I first saw your sample book I was in estacy
I am still speechless
We are super excited also
Many people have worked for this
Lots of brain stroming
Lots of creativity
Lots of designing
Lots of team work
Few laughs, some tears and much more
Have gone into you
The last straw was the 48 hours check
With lot of scribbling in the sample
We managed to get to approved
Awaiting the printed version yet

You are definitely a acheivement
Atleast from my view
Every book has a story
But this is a A story behind making of a brochure

Rock to Sculpture

Every person we meet creates an impact on us. The way the impact works is quite surprising. Sometimes the impact created by a stranger is more than the impact by a close friend. I always consider life as a block of coal or a big piece of rock. The journey from Coal to diamond or Rock to sculpture takes a lot of time and can also be painful. 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 ...

Foot Prints on Time

Is age just a number? I wonder within myself Or it could have been aloud I can no longer tell My ears are sharp, but my mind is preoccupied I try recalling the past But it seems like a distant memory Everything is a blur of multiple emotions I wish I could see through them At least relive a few; forget many But life does not work that way I feel weary in my bones I wish I could rest But the journey is still not over I hope it is not long as before Almost half is what I can do My knees tremble as I gaze behind My eyesight dims as the distance increases I have come a long way Through different phases and even eras I look at the age Is it just a number? Did I ask myself this before? Is my work done? Can I do anything else? The questions keep adding. Was it memorable? It was interesting Was I happy? I forgot to tick the box. Am I mature? Only time will tell The age might not be just a number anymore It is a reminder to let go It is a reminder to cherish the small things It is a reminder to...
