Best of the Two Worlds

A phrase that's totally fake and meaningless 
that one can get best of the two worlds,
has caught my fancy.
How's that plausible?
How's that possible?
If serenity, liberty and equality were feasible in one world why would anyone drift towards the other?
If there is starvation, unquenchable thirst , deprivation and confinement  
why would the other world that's free from all pessimism let its door open for the  queer inhabitant carrying the burden of negativity of that first world?
If one world is life itself,
other is absolutely lifeless.
If one world is paradise,
other is no doubt inferno.
If one world is a heavenly orchard,
other one is no doubt a desert where only cactus can grow.
If one world Is a cherished blessing ,
the other one is a sureshot unavoidable curse.
If the first one is zenith, 
The second one is nadir.
Between them there is no horizon,
there is no  concrete bridge available to make it practical to be in the best of two worlds. 
The  stifled soul that's bound to the first world due to the back breaking burden of limitations and liabilities, 
can only dream see, yearn, want and need from a far to be in the other world which is inviting apparently but  has in reality no place for the  cursed creed.
Though, as mentioned it was the other world which was once inviting,
Yet, blame is on the ill fated soul that it wants the best of the two worlds.
Of course,  the dream, desire,  destination and want of the soul is the second world in which it will wish and pray to merge one day.
But, when on this earth all dreams come true?

Papa

One more year has slipped by Of course, now there are no more audible cries. Yet, the pain of your departure is still acutely strong, Nothing can be done to rectify twenty two years old wrong, When you were quiet aware of the chiming of your death gong. And decided to suddenly without any prior intimation to be forever gone. And those final twenty four hours seemed to be so heavy and long, when from human form you were turned into ashes who was once so strong. Alas! that day,  It wasn't you who were solely  gutted in that so called holy fire, So much more was turned into coal and tar, Your younger ones' innocence and elder ones' desires were with you for a while gone. With you gone, Suddenly the warm gusts of this dreary world were chasing your progeny. But law of life is to keep going, Day or night, Dawn or dusk, Alone or with people around, With or without you, Life moved on and is still moving. But though physically missing  Yet, you haven't been completely forlorn....

Tribute to Father

TRIBUTE TO FATHER IS AN EFFORT TO GIVE WORDS TO ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES IN DAV (ONCE MY HAPPY WORKPLACE), JASWINDER SIR'S FEELINGS WHO OF COURSE, ACKNOWLEDGES A MOTHER'S CONTRIBUTION BUT WISHED A FATHER MUST ALSO GET HIS DUE IN HIS CHILDREN'S UPBRINGING. I HOPE JUSTICE HAS BEEN DONE THROUGH  THIS SMALL EFFORT.  At times ,cold as ice yet comforting and balming, hard as coconut but sweetest at core that's a father's pretenceless heart, sturdy as a mountain an unshakeable support, rough and rugged as a road that for sure leads to  the beautiful resorts, Such is the beauty of a father's love. Love that makes no audible noise, That mostly abstains from public display of affection, But round the clock makes sure that the fire beneath the hearth of his home shouldn't ever extinguish, Works like  an ox, Doesn't mind what it takes blood, sweat or tears Every price for his little ones' smiles he is willing to pay.  Often misunderstood,  often underestimated,  oft...

Mom

Motherhood is the most beautiful and satiating moment of every woman's life. The mammoth task of rearing a child becomes the sole driving force behind every woman once she attains motherhood.One of the most beautiful moments of my life was also undoubtedly when l had 21 years ago seen the face of my first born for the first time and another was when the Almighty had blessed me with my younger born 19 years back. Since then the centre of my life became the two children born to me. Day in and day out a silent prayer for their health and well-being goes on in my conscience, and that's what every mother does. My profession the sublimest one i.e teaching has mostly female staff who have a strong motherly instinct and are thus able to relish strong bond with the students. Present day teaching demands rigorous in-service trainings. The teachers like me attended various workshops from time to time in order to enhance their skills. During these workshops we got to interact with the teac...
