Wink

Image
A simple action, that got my attention and made me think Was this a casual one or had a reason for this blink Unable to decode, what is the link I kept on wondering, why did she wink? This simple wink may have hundreds of stories untold Mind being fertile add many variations to suit ones mould Cooking situations, sharing amongst friends being bold Becomes a matter of pride, as if you are a winner of gold A simple wink and you feel over the moon Not a single word was spoken, just having a wish to meet soon Her single act made my actions as funny as a cartoon It was night time, you are day-dreaming about her since noon My link completed the work and shared the findings of the incident The anxiety levels were too high to understand the truth being patient The grounds were altogether different levels, as it was a mere accident The dust in the air made her wink and I got it altogether different Such accidents may happen with almost everyone The most important aspect is how to handle this fu

Sixty

Image
Some say life starts after forty and this has its own logic But experience says life starts after sixty as it has its own magic Whereat forty, the person needs to balance the needs of his parents, wife, and children At Sixty, the challenges are killing time, managing finance, and grandchildren Reaching sixty gives the significance of a different kind Looking behind gives a sense of achievement in the mind That age makes one bid adieu to work and position Also gives the time to spend with the family with a renewed vision This is the most important turning point of life Where every relationship gets redefined except the wife To add to the strength of bonding between the spouses'  There are different rituals followed at different houses A beautiful ritual in South India is the 'Sasthiapthapoorthi' celebration Where re-marriage of the couple strengthens the bond of toleration In modern times, when families find reasons for a reunion and enjoy This is a moment to witness two sou

Virus

The birth of a Virus is either natural or many times man-made A scholar of microbiology explained to students of tenth grade He explained the growth of the reach of humans in research aplomb Almost equalling Almighty for destroying life through this human bomb Though the virus created under legal restrictions harms no one Once it reaches the wrong hands, there can be a menace for everyone The innovation of destructive virus is a problem prime The scientist at the laboratory has to work against time The vaccine to kill the virus needs to be developed to protect future This keeps the scientist on toes as the virus has a contagious nature Humankind has faced an attack of virus or bacteria every 100 years Whilst many of them survived, they paid the cost of near and dears This generation faced the worst of the attacks last November The entire world is reeling under its pressure for almost a year The origin of this virus seems to be done with malafide intention The creators knew about the ef

Imagine a life without me Even this thought is weird, so it be Your mornings and your evenings, I can feel Even many of you use me after every meal You gave me the best friend of life We live and enjoy like husband and wife You also made me meet with 32 friends together Cleaning them everyday is a joy altogether I understand though I'm replaceable after some time The best part of this short life, I remain your need prime I continue living in the cabinet for few more years  The day when all my hairs get worn off, i feel the tears Its time to bid adieu to this owner & everyone  My rebirth is confirmed with recycling and be with someone #Mindspeak 11/10/2020 Toothbrush_biography

The 'Fish' story

Image
The school times were beautiful for many reasons Everyone attended the school in all the seasons Later, the lectures and teachers are missed by all The recess time is missed more for the play and fall During recess, the lunch boxes were opened without hesitation Variety of delicacies served together did not need any invitation Some even did not knew the tiffin he carried that day For it would be emptied, if even for a moment he looked away Once, a 'fish' rice brought was mistakenly served to a  vegetarian boy This put off the mood in the camp as the boy thought it was ploy He cried profusely and his entire day was wasted Others laughed and made him feel guilty for the 'fish' he tasted One smart boy counselled & suggested to forget and bury the incident He convinced it was a unintended mistake, happened by accident Thanx to that small counselling, the friendship continues even today The boys hang out around without any guilt for what happened that day Problems arise

The 'fish'erman's Story

Image
Alibaug is a coastal belt approximately 100 kms away from Mumbai, which mumbaikars visit for relaxation. Alibaug is slow compared to activities of our buzzling city. People are more contented with what they have and lead a good quality life. Nathu was one such resident of Alibaug city Once a learned teacher of Economics from Mumbai went on a stroll beach early morning and saw Nathu selling fishes which was 'fresh'. The teacher purchased the entire lot from Nathu and was happy to see the smile on the face of Nathu (for obvious reasons). Teacher appreciated the quality of fish he sold and that made Nathu feel more happier. Before Nathu set out to leave, the teacher asked him about his daily chores Nathu was a bit reluctant initially but since the entire day was relatively free for him and the teacher seemed harmless,  he narrated his story. He said, before dawn, he set out on his small boat to the sea to get his catch and whatever fishes he got, he kept some in the house and brou

Angry

 The major reasons for someone's anger Generally is either the person's Ego or Hunger The former reason (Ego) applies for all Irrespective of the person, big or small It takes several years to build a relationship Ego invokes anger which sinks even a sailing ship People know and acknowledge, being angry is bad When in anger, they tend to empty their mind which is sad Anger flares up when someone's stomach is empty and starving  But today hunger has crossed all limits for satisfying one's craving A man is slowly turning into animal from where he originated Academic qualification is merely a degree on paper designated The virtues of today's man is lost which taught him lessons of ground Though he acts properly in crowd, he loses his control with no one around He has become more brutal, ruthless, rude, foul and full of hate Resulting Rape, Dacoity, Theft - all crimes increasing at an alarming rate Not only the occurrence of crimes has increased alarmingly without shame

You are one whom I respected the most as a freedom fighter You are the one who inspired me to stand up during situations tighter You are the one who knew education is important with perseverance You are one who knew revolution was important for independence I have read your stories so many times to know you and your vision Yet I feel it needs to be read many more times to know your every mission You had decided to join freedom struggle at such a tender age The genes running within did not let you rest and enjoy your teenage You knew Revolution was very important for freedom of this nation Hence, you proposed formation of Hindustan Socialist Republican Association You knew the entire system needs a thorough change the equation Else the Browns (Indians) would replace the Whites and continue exploitation The Babugiri system would remain and become a new tradition This prediction was so correct as even today we face this complication Hats off to your knowledge of history of India and every

Nothing

A Child uses this word to avoid Cane  A Dad uses it to shield his everyday pain  A person in trance gives this as an answer to everyone For he does not like to share his piece of mind to anyone This is the answer to many questions of this world It is observed tears often flow, after uttering this word There is a strong obsession attached to 'Nothing' For there is a huge world within this word existing Strong emotions exhibited by many causing mental trauma This is the start point of delivering emotional drama There is a different world too which co-exists in 'Nothing' All meditation therapies involves doing 'nothing' for relaxing  In this fast moving world of digitalisation and automation A man is moving continuously for more and more innovation He feels doing 'nothing' is a crime by many in this society As moving hands of Clock increases his palpitation and anxiety Seldom does he understand that he is on the wrong track of life Even though his growth is

Pupil (Student)

 Rama was a teacher who used to be in the Pupil's Pupil always.  He says you find pupil in all sizes, categories and genres - You name it and you have it. This is his collection of Pupil. Rajendra was a notorious student and 'Out'standing one for almost all the lectures in the school. Rama was well aware of Rajendra's behaviours and his record too. That year, Rama was Class teacher of Rajendra. The very first day, there was a complaint against Rajendra by one student and he was asked by the subject teacher to meet principal. Rama sir intervened and took Rajendra's side saying "He believed that Rajendra was a good boy and would not have indulged in the bullying activity as per complaint". Rajendra was flattered and highly impressed by this class teacher. He smiled and escaped a routine Principal punishment. This was the first master stroke of Ramasir.  Next, Rama called Rajendra near him one day and asked him, whether he would like to become 'Prefect

 Rakhi came back home from school with a wide smile  She had ran the entire distance, which was about a mile Such moments of happiness come far in between and are rare She had promised to herself to better in this personal dare She was a contender for this position since last few years When she did not achieve it, she was sometimes in tears Rakhi topped in school during her first Unit test of SSC Desperate was she to handover her marksheet for parents to see Jumping and smiling, she flashed her marksheet, with expectation What happened next was beyond anybody's imagination Her father actually exclaimed, why were you in such a hurry? Realising his instant reaction, he apologized and said "I'm sorry" His  father was her "in-house" critic as well as her best friend She knew his reaction was an important lesson he wanted to send He said "Peaking early" could be recipe for disaster in the making It may put off the fire burning deep within and stop one i

IKIGAI (Book Review)

Image
IKIGAI - A Japanese Secret to Long and Happy Life by Hector Gracia & Fancesc Miralles (translated by Heather Cleary) A very small but an effective book which shows the way for living a long life. The authors have not only stated the definition and other features of the word "IKIGAI" but took pains to travel to the actual place and interview the "CENTENERIANS" and many such stories are published in this book.The entire narrative is simple to understand for an average reader and tips to implement the same is also given. Hailing from the West, the authors have made comparative study of various practices on similar lines and how "IKIGAI" helps people of the Island OKINAWA survive for longer years is put up beautifully. The travel to a smaller village within the island - OGIMI - called as the Village of Longetivity is penned up wonderfully that the reader can actually have a sense of belonging. IKIGAI in English roughly translates to "the happiness of

The Best (Poem)

One must pass through the test Perform better than the rest To be called as the "Best" Many things are at stake in this game Money, time, respect, ego and even fame For being the Best, the urge is always the Same The difference is always a thin margin A micro second decides whose out and  whose in One person loses and the other person win The results of this race are always subjective  What matters is not only the efforts you give Its important to focus on goal and achieve The Mind needs to be trained with adequate rest For the Competitor will put his abilities to test You have to sacrifice the luxuries in your nest And on the d-day perform better than your best A simple word of caution amidst this preparation There is always a life beyond Competition The  most important aspect is active Participation Your presence inculcating fear and Perspiration Give your best and emerge a Winner In the process, do not be a Sinner Its important have peaceful sleep and good Dinn

 He Came, He Conquered, He Left!!! Millions of Fans all over the World!!! An Awesome Cricketing Brain!!! Huge Risk Taker!!! Believer in No.7!!! The most successful Indian Captain!!! (Captain Cool) The BEST!!!     - Yeah you guessed it right - Mr.  Mahendra Singh Dhoni!!! (Mahii) "When you die, you die. You don't think which is a better way to die" This reply of Dhoni speaks volume about his character and mettle. It was in a press release when he was asked which was more hurting - The England 2011 Whitewash or The Whitewash in Australia.Not only the meida tears you apart after a losing foreign tour but the burden of expectation of 1.3 billion Indians is too tough to meet. Being the Captain of the Indian Cricket Team is probably the most difficult job in India. Even though no captain leaves any stone unturned to bring out the best in the team, failures are part of the sports but Indians can never digest the same and immediately react to the same negatively. Even stalwart li
