Let there be Peace, Please!

Wishing all a very Happy & Prosperous New Year ahead. May 2013 be far better than 2012!!!

And as the whole world was expecting the End of the World didn't happen. Or did it? A different kind of end it is, if not the physical one.

Going through the recent occurrences of violence to humanity, especially to women, it's time that we hide our faces underground as a community. A society where women are raped, assaulted, will not progress in any way. Laws, statistics of criminal records, justice being delivered, all such things speak of it. The question we must all confront is - Where are we heading to?

Whatever the methods of control be - restrictions, new laws, change in mannerisms - those are not going to help. The change has to come in the Mindset. Unless and until that changes, we can be rest assured, nothing else is going to. No night time capping, no stricter laws. People who treat others in a manner which demotes the whole humanity - they have to be afraid. Afraid of the consequences, not for the system of law and policing, but from the consequences of the Society.

Once I read, that the end of the world in 2012 would be a change, not literally The End, as everyone expected. People, who constitute society, are undergoing a significant change. A change which should have been brought about years ago. A change of conscience, which they feel has been lingering for long. A change for the betterment of humanity. People are witnessing the atrocities in the world - and reacting towards it. That is for good!

With all these thoughts, let's aspire for a better world in the coming times. We are all humans of equal stature in morality. Don't destroy that. And until that is achieved, spread the message!

Let there be Peace!

Congratulations to Sachin!

And after a wait of 369 days, the day has finally come! March 16, 2012 will go down in the history books as the day when the Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar reached the almost unrepeatable milestone of 100 International Centuries in the Game of Cricket. This particular century had garnered a lot of attention, especially since it was the 100th one. And also because it took such a long time. Possibly the most Sachin has taken between centuries before. But as we say, all good things come with a wait, Sachin also had to sweat it out for 33 innings and then came this much-awaited century. It hasn't been easy for him at all, it's not that you by-default get a 100 if you reach a particular point. He had to strive for each and every run, even for the single after the 99. That's how the game is. Just merely because he is an expert in the game, doesn't make his work easy. It just makes others to consider it as easy for him. For him, each and every match, each and every inn...

Questions of Sanity

Through those steps of solace Rise the moments of despair Speaking of one unanswered question "Why?" When the nights blind away With those chirps of silent pray From the crickets humming their way "Why?" For, those dark corners Seldom return a face to mark The happiness reveals with a big "Why?" And under the lights We picture our doomed agony Like shadows in perceptions of "Why?" Often, we turn around and look Behind our steps of grace To picture the realm of safety "Why?" Fear, the detestation from reality For those who keep onto it Often keep repeating endlessly "Why?" The time of redemption arises With moments of glory in dreams A glimpse of light again, a change "Why not?"

The Hollow Inside

They say it's okay The silence, is normal For it doesn't hurt anyone Lest it shall trouble none. The doldrums of time Keep beating itself, as one Never ending rhythm of Deep thoughts and tunes Our friend, the mirror Tells us stories of laughter In the silence, which shadows The storm inside us. We are for ever, by them They are, for themselves In the darkness of loneliness We are all one. The greenery, feels black The sunshine, dims dark The night is our dear friend Yet the darkness, doesn't help If help us, you possibly can't Understand us, you at least shall We live with our silences, in Our own mute wind chimes It's hard, to go by Smiling, yet burning inside Cause no one knows, that you're Living, yet dying inside. -- P.S: An inspiration and dedication to the very recently watched movie - Joker - enacted exceptionally by Joaquin Phoenix, and a marvellous story. More than the comic character, it's a great lot amount on ...
