CHASING ADVENTURE...

Its not that we hadn't been to Alibaug before. This wasn't the first time that we were visiting that place. However something that we didn't do before and did it for the first was to start our journey on bikes at around 2 am. Sunil, Anand and I. We started our journey with a clear goal of viewing the sunrise at Kashit Beach. We reached Lonavla and halted to sip a few cups of Tea. I was the happiest traveler as it wasn't me who was riding either of the bikes. We thought we were getting late and thus hurried. They again started riding. I pleasantly started dosing and enjoying all the privileges of a Pillion rider. I dared to do that coz I was pretty confident of the way Anand rides a bike. By the time we reached Alibaug we realized that the twilight had started making its way for his royal highness - the sun. We sped our bikes to an extent that for a moment it seemed as if we are out to save the world, struggling with our lives to ensure that we don't miss that alluring scene. We reached. We were a bit late. To our surprise we realized that it had been four hours and we have been fooling ourselves. How was it possible for the Sun to rise at the Arabian Sea? We giggled, screamed and laughed.... And then there was a time when we started adoring the silence, the beauty of the sea, the whispers of the waves, the coolness of atmosphere, the soothing effect of the environment, the feeling of togetherness.... We enjoyed playing and drenching into the sea's lap, relaxed and then decided to have a bath nearby. With great confidence Anand had got us to this beach saying that there are localites who provide space and water for bathing at a minimal cost of Rs. 15 - 20 per head. We searched and inquired at many places but all efforts in vain. And then ... ended up bathing at the road side hand pump. Nevertheless, this one incident added the missing spice to our adventure and we returned back in the afternoon celebrating the boldness of the bravery that was show cased at the roadside. Another day added in the kitty of memories to cherish.... Love you my Friends! (*Please notice the life saver bottle in the photograph without which we would have died....)

Leading Your Life

Liberty is what each one us looks for in our lives. No matter what, life becomes meaningless after a certain point of time if unnecessarily garbed and tagged with not so good societal norms. Why should I be told of how to behave, how to react or how to respond? It is me who will decide whom I should be with or what should I do. Why do people even attempt to induce senseless sentiments into me when they know I won't react? And that too at this point of time when I am clear about issues, about what I need in life. why are my thoughts being hindered? Why are my plans being challenged? I want to do what I want to do. If I don't want to meet or talk to someone, I am pretty clear that I don't want to. It is not me who started breaking the bonds... Now I don't expect rather don't want to regain belief. Had I been given a chance to choose I would have chosen Liberty! Yes. Freedom. Freedom from every thing that stops me from taking my own decisions, freedom from every thing that stops me from living my own life. I don't like people controlling my life. I guess no one does.

Enough is Enough!

I am Provoked. I am instigated. It is not me who start it all the time. Many a times I am provoked to react absurdly, utter those pricky sentences. It is not that my vocal chords are poisoned but it is something that comes out impulsively. I am blamed of being insensitive. But time and again it is me who have been listening and respecting. Hence forth I won't alterate my plans. I won't behave or do what people want me to. If people want their self esteem to be honored, they should first learn to reciprocate the same. I don't want to be a victim of their fights, misunderstandings coz it was not me who created it. They talk about equilibrium. They should first learn to maintain some. Enough is Enough!

MISSING YOU !

I went apart, all on my own; No one to run with me, feeling alone. No one to chat, no one to share; no one to giggle and no one to care. I walk accross the road, with heart in pain; I try to comfort myself, but all efforts in vain. I think of coming back, can't take it more; I wear my coat and reach the door. I stop, I cry in plight; I kneel down and think of ending the fight. Without you I am feeling blue; Every moment I am thinking of you, Missing You!!!

BOREDOM

It happens with time, place and circumstances that boredom starts crawling slowly into our lives. No matter how much you love to do a specific work it finds its way steadily and firmly.. Enthusiasm is its first victim. Like a serial killer it starts wiping out every thing that keeps you active, enthusiastic and charged up. Over a period of time life seems to have lost its charm and that pleasant flavour which gives you a reason to live, a reason to smile, a reason to socialize, a reason to face the hardships & challenges and a reason to spread the aura of happiness around you. It kills the urge to do something new. it kills the urge to grow and prosper. However as said, "Every cloud has a silver lining", it instigates you to think of the alternatives that you can use to get rid of it. I guess it teaches us the way we should live in every phase of life. Yes this is what it is....Boredom!

CRISIS

Crisis is when you can't say : Let's forget everything.....
