What is it to live?

We keep running for no real purpose
We battle live hard for almost nothing
Sometimes I forgot even to breathe
And keep stressing
Something hit me hard
And it made me realise
Life has so much joy and surprises around us
Do we notice it
Or are we busy immersed in ourselves
The weather was mild and I was impatiently waiting in a queue
And I did not have the pandora box with me
I just looked around with nothing much to think or do
She came flying down and looked for something to bite
She did not gulp the first food she saw
She waited and selected her favourite
She slowly tore pieces of it and ate it slowly
She took so much joy and relish in the task she did
She was ignorant of the people around her
Her world was just her and her meal
She walked towards the water
And sipped it elegantly
After she was satisfied , she took the remaining food
And flew away to share.
Her world was calm and bliss
It is not easy
But she is living her life
Every second of it
Unlike me

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 ...
