Walk With Soul

Hustle- bustle of the monotonous world had stealthily taken hold of the grim conscience. 
The days broke mechanically, 
The nights desended mechanically, 
Mechanical were all chores,
Mechanical were all moves.
The wheel of time moved with a dull but constant speed,
Duties were performed in time,
Responsibilities were accomplished in time. 
Everything  was as if in super control and with in time,
On surface Everything was so perfect and superbly fine.
 Almost for decades , as if the uproar the sound of sobs of soul was buried too deep in the earthly gorge ,too deep to reach even the soul itself. 
The saddened soul was yearning hard to liberate itself from the shackles that had crippled it for so long.
The soul was in quest of itself,
Uptill the dawn of the day when it went for a stroll with itself. 
For a while, it was deaf to the world, 
For a while , it was blind to the world.
For a while, in decades it was just itself.
For a while, after ages it was dancing in a matchless frenzy , 
Nothing earthly could hinder or hamper the blissful  walk that the soul had ventured out for itself.
The invincible circumference of condemnation, criticism, evaluation or judgment by the world around had lost all significance, it had then no power, no control over the bold soul's edict.
That day though for a short while the soul had the awakening though it was late
That the soul itself is its true soul mate.
Alas! Outing of the soul with itself was short-lived, 
Since, stark reality of realization was back in its full swing and spree to snatch it away from the sublime self centered path that was then its only bidding.
Yet, it was holding on to the thin hope to again behold that dawn to walk one more time with itself to say what was left unsaid,
To dive deep into its own eyes and to grasp longer, tighter and forever its own hand as nothing is more heavenly than being contended with the one's own self.

    1. You have beautifully penned down the eternal struggle of life which is always conflicted with worldly expectations and hearts desires, Of responsibilities Vs dreams ,Of reality Vs fantasies. Life if lived outwards is always a struggle which will generate friction and conflicts ,Only if we learn to look inwards and be at peace with ourselves it will generate Virtue, peace ,harmony and contentment and help find what soul yearns for.

Working Mom

  The title of this write-up may make no sense and might seem whimsical to some. Yet, I couldn't think of any other, though I did try to run the horses of my mind for hours to replace it with a better one. Anyhow, its content, I hope, is worth reading. This may sound contrary to me,a language teacher who always guided  pupils to choose eye-catching and gripping titles for their work. Yesterday, a phone call from my twenty-one-year-old daughter led to a discussion  about the parents’ rights over children. I, being a mother, feel that a mother—being the carrier of her baby in the womb for nine long months and then bringing the baby into this world with unimaginable pain has rights to advocate. I told her about how difficult it is for a mother to stay away from her children, especially toddlers. I shared with her the hardest choice I had to make when she was just one and a half years old and my elder child was  three. It was one of the toughest years of my marriage....

When Skill Meets Determination:A Salon, A Story and a Salute

Since time immemorial, both men and women have wished, ventured, and craved to look good, better, and sometimes the best. In every nook and corner of the world, whether in a bustling city, a quiet suburb, or a small village, salons and beauty parlours stand as testimony to this universal desire. With each generation, the dependence on such services has grown, shortcuts have become acceptable, and professional grooming has turned into a necessity rather than a luxury. This observation isn’t a conclusion drawn from research; it is born from personal experience with my twenty-one-year-old daughter. Having recently begun to manage her life independently, she is particular about her appearance and outlook. For the past three years, she has been living abroad and returns home every December for a month. During this time, she sweetly wishes to be pampered in every possible way. One such indulgence is getting her hair washed and blow-dried at a salon so that her curtain bangs remai...

Silence

Silence is serene. Silence is solace. In several ways, silence saves the savage soul. Silence is static, strong, like sky-kissing mountains circling a sleepy hill town. Silence is somber when it stems from sadness. Silence strives to sleep over sickening strategies. Silence confers the childlike sleep upon the soulful, while it steals the peace of the soulless. Silence smiles and silences all conjectures. For a few, silence is a sweet remedy; for others, silence is a malady. For some, silence is a question impossible to crack. For others, silence is the answer to every crux. For some, silence is a shield. For others, the sharpest knife, the searing scythe. Most times, aparently silence saves bonds. At times, it breaks them into forms unrecognizable. Silence wears the face of a silent sage, yet stands indisputed as  a symbol of untamed rage. Life screams. Death silences. silence is a voice in itself, raising walls too high for unwanted noise to climb. Silence is a misunderstood path...
