Bad Mother

Bad mother

She yells, she screams,

she has job no other,

Look she is a bad mother....

She cleans up the mess ten times a day

Mopping and sweeping the floor all the way

Once a while, she looses her cool

Calls her child, oh! You fool

There and then, they pass a judgment

Learn to stay calm make some adjustment

The moments of your patience, no one would bother

They'd all just repeat look, she is a bad mother

No matter, whatever you sacrifice,

You're a mother you have to pay a price,

You will always be tagged,

For the things that are lagged,

They don't see you cry,

They just keep asking why?

When would they know you're just tired and not a loather

When will they stop saying

Look, she is a bad mother!

Emotional Cancer

Image
Today world is remembering today's day as World Cancer Day. Most of you who are reading about this must be having some emotional connection or someone you know who is or was fighting cancer at some point in life. For me it was a transformational journey. I suffered emotional cancer.  I know, medical science identifies no diease as such, but when cancer has taken over someone beloved you are affected by it.  I was! My world turned upside down.    I was working in Ahmedabad, my first job and first time that I was away from home. My mother was the force behind my lone survival in the new city. In would often call her and say, "you don't love me, that's why you have just let me be here alone." I accused her for my initial hiccups to adjust in a new place. Calm and composed like always she never got angry at me. She never lost her faith, she knew it was just matter of time that I'd adjust in the new city and things will get rolling. And so it was. I blended with ne...

बिना किसी मंजिल.....

बिना किसी मंज़िल,  खाली रास्तों पर चल कर तो देखो कुदरत ने किस्मत के डब्बे मे क्या छिपा रखा है  कभी ज़रा खोल कर तो देखो।  भीड़ लगी जिन रास्तो पर,  दौड़ जहा सारे लगा रहे उन रास्तो से  कभी यू टर्न लेकर तो देखो।  मीलों बिछी उन सड़कों की कहानी कभी सुनो,  उन पर बिखरे अनुभव के मोती तो चुनो।  कहेंगी तुमसे ये हजारो दास्ताने, ध्यान लगाकर, कभी ज़रा सुनकर तो देखो,  बिना किसी मंज़िल,  खाली रास्तों पर चल कर तो देखो । मंजिल को पाने के जुनून मे,  जो भूल जाते हो सफर का लुत्फ उठाना!  कभी इस बस्ते को एक तरफ रख, सड़क किनारे बैठ कर तो देखो।  दर्शक बन, वहां से  कभी गुज़रते मुसाफिरों की टोली भी देखो।  उनकी विविधता मैं,  उनके लक्ष्य की एकता को देखों।  बिना किसी मंज़िल खाली रास्तों पर चल कर तो देखो । क्या कभी लहराते पेड़ों की,  मदमस्त चाल देख पाये हो? वो चिड़िया क्या धुन गुनगुनाती है, क्या कभी समझ पाये हो?  अपनी उलझनों का पिटारा छोड़कर,  प्रकृति के इस चमत्कार को तो देखो।  बिना किसी मंज़िल  खाली रास्तों ...

The Gutters on the way

Image
You have just purchased a lovely bouquet of flowers and are decked up to attend a birthday party.  You park your vehicle at a distance and walk a few meters towards your destination. On your way, lays a gutter with no lid and venting the stinky smell of the dump it stores within.  It irritates your olfactory senses and you are irritated. What would you do?  Most of us will say we'd walk away from that place real quick, and we'd immediately hunt our bags and pockets for any perfumes we might be carrying. Lastly we'd have the flower bouquet that will come to the rescue.  Such are the negative situations, of life. They are full of opinions, judgements, perceptions, toxicity, gossip making them stinky. Whenever you cross roads with such situations they are bound to bother you, but most of us instead of walking away towards positivity, sit over this negative gutter and inhale it and get further irritated.  We were destined to meet the gutter, the handling of the situ...
