Butterfly

The power above us watches out for us always.  Even during the darkest times, he gives us the strength and willpower to battle all odds. He sends messages and secrets in various forms to assure his presence. The messenger differs for each person and can be even more than one.

In the deepest dark, filled with sorrow and pain
The vacuum engulfed the place
The air was thick, and breath seemed like an action
It was forced and irregular
I tried stopping it many times
But the wind filled my lungs
And forced itself out
My eyes ran out of tears
And the gasp was audible
Pain sliced and wriggled through me
My heart bled out, and it was down to the last drop
I gave up all hope
Even a wisp of air seemed far away
My faith swayed amidst the cry of loneliness
I never knew what to ask
Was it a peaceful everlasting sleep?
Or a happy life?
A flutter caressed me softly
The colours hued my dark world
As I lost my self in its beauty
A gentle breezed embraced me
A soft whisper reassured me
Invisible hands held me tightly
As I began breathing and hoping again
The messenger moved on

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 ...
