I am still waiting?


Yesterday I was convinced that I would be the chosen one. The place I was hoping for was just not the ordinary one. It was one which would define the forthcoming alignment of the system that is getting newly formed.

Lot of thoughts were passing by the ridges of my mind. In fact everyone might be going through the same at some point of time and I am no exception. Although many subdued thoughts were drilling down, there were few of them which were just tickling my ribs.

“A new start with a fresh state of mind would be my new venture”, I thought. “I would want to instate the process which I had been longing to implement. It won’t be a dominated one and I would take along everyone with me. After all that’s what I had done all my life. This was one of the opportunities that I waited for eternity”. The thoughts elated me so much that I was almost ready to go ahead. And the time came too when the actual conversation happened. Everything was just falling into place.

Surprisingly few ideas were exchanged about how we would be taking ahead the deal and that made me feel more as a part of the system already. The discussion slowly moved towards a very much obvious section. “How my service would be valued”. They already knew how I expected it to be and they were quite sure about it. Even I felt happy and contended when we both settled with a near win-win situation. After all, who would make fuzz out of it when everything is going smooth. Or that’s what it seemed.

The course of the dialect was about to end on a happy note when I was asked for the final 5 minutes so as a prominent decision takes place. The only stuff that clicked that even after such a discussion, how something can be decided in just 5 minutes. However, the thought kept on rolling as 5 minutes turned to 15. Finally, after half an hour, It started feeling that the necessity is really high and that people are seriously considering for what I feel I was worth. It was just 10 more minutes after that, I was asked to wait till next day as they told that they are seriously thinking on as now how much they can value my induction into the system.

My white part was feeling how great these people are who took pain to inform me, but on the other hand, my other half with horns was wickedly smiling. It gave me creeps, for it would have felt that I was getting fooled again. But as always the guy with the ring on the head was more dominant and I finally agreed upon waiting for the next day for which they would need more time.

Still when I am writing this it’s more than 25 hours till time which I was asked to wait and am still waiting!!!

Compassion - the way to be Happy



Man doesn't believe whatever happens to him for the first instance if it happens unexpectedly. However mere acceptance decides whether the outcome will sooth or scratch. Who would want to design such a route which would ultimately lead the person to be at content. Its none other than self who would judge that.

Many people say I live for others. It is true. But what matters is the extent to which the statement stays correct. I work for my family to get better living standards. I work hard because I want my nearones to enjoy the comforts which tend to add to their lifestyle. I slog all day to buy more cushions so that they sleep peacefully. I want to earn more cause my John uncle has more wealth and I want him to go down against my family. Few of these reasons might be logical, few might be irrational. But the truth is that they all stand correct from the perspective of an individual. And there's nothing wrong in it cause these are the objectives for almost every individual who just wants to do something for someone.

But how is that one does something for others. It is said," If you want others to be happy, practice compassion." The height of compassion will determine the level of slogging one would do for making others happy. A wonderful idea ain't it. Still few things involved are not visible when one does something for others. It takes no time when compassion turns into obsession which at times proves to be harmful for others. Thus OTHERS does not only include the near and dear ones but also who are around whose life might be affected. Its just that to whatever extent one does something for someone with all the obsession or passion, it doesn't have to hurt any other. The consideration for others feelings as our would determine the same.


"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion"

Significance of Achievements

A SONNET - "the pespiration determines the significance of ACHIEVEMENTS"

The title "SIGNIFICANCE of ACHIEVEMENTS" may sound more content that people always want to go for.. But the word that states is not the only reason why people run after the same every moment in their life. Some do not understand the significance of it after achieving it and some just fail to understand the significance before attaining it. The definitions always vary from a situation to the acceptance of the outcome. Some treat it as the luck that followed and some just name it as the destiny that was due.

Its not just limited to those who determine it as the path of the wake..After all the wake cannot be formed untill there is a movement in the water. A specific speed, a specific direction also determines it. The considerable amount of height gained determines the beauty at which it shows up. Maybe !

The wake, the applaud doesn't stay for long. To continue the sight of being a reason of such a phenomenon the boat has to be in constant motion for the wake to stay alive. The flow is merely the driving force which again motivates to attain more and more. The addiction is so huge that nobody want to loose the track the taste of the tongue. Who says its bad. But its only if its self centric. Many just tend to eliminate the thought of an achievment that might be hurting some other heart which might be even close.

But who cares. And why should one. Afterall I live for my ownself. These statements often take prime position for the reason to achieve, for some to live. The mere moments of joy and sharing eventually turns to be a trauma or disgust for others.

However, the fact that still prevail is that the success or achievement is more or less directed towards ownself. Its the route that decides the quality.

The outcome may hurt or may elate, but is it significant without the knowing value for which it was achieved?
