Those days when I was usually lost in thought Forever smiling and happy with what I got Mom was my charm, my strength and she still is Dad told stories of courage that today I truly miss Not a single day I'd go without fighting with my brother His absence now kills and makes me helplessly bother Dolls and teddies were all that I wanted But suddenly all vanished and I was daunted! Daunted with new dreams, new aspirations Struggling to make a mark, seeking inspirations I went to college and learnt new stuff Trudging paths which were smooth and sometimes tough Slowly and steadily the leisure just vanished Me-time with random hobbies was totally banished Bed time stories were replaced by midnight calls Gardens and park visits found no place amidst the malls I grew up and I grew up too fast Future would bother and scary looked the past In this hasty living one day I did realize How I gave up on the real present to see unreal dreams materialize And then I simply vowed to never forget b...

Everything is life is nothing but a long wait. Look around each and every object waits to do something, reach somewhere or become someone. I find it very interesting to wait for the sun to rise or the earth to take a position where the sun-rays begin to kiss it slowly. The birds wait to pick the best worm however early or late they make it to their marketplace. The plants wait for some sun and water to help them sustain life. Almost the entire rhythm of nature dances to the tunes of the ‘right’ time Coming to us, the mortals wait for success, fortune, marriage, love and enlightenment in rare cases. Life resonates the sound of a clock ticking and all wait to live that moment of joy, fame, achievement or contentment that they have long desired. We are also taught by the epics and scriptures that nothing happens before the right time arrives. Be it life or death, we are too feeble to decide the course of our lives as the omnipotent entity called time rules everything While in ...

As he speaks, she skips a beat, She loves to travel, he lives to eat They are a small gang,maybe an army too, Miss each other but hate being called the 'perfect two' She lives in a palace of illusions,  He is too realistic to be ruled by emotions She dreams & strives to make it real, He brings her to the ground declaring her words are surreal It's more of a Tom &  Jerry  couple, Their goals are the same, but approaches are a trouble She initiates & he'll complete, In person their thoughts do meet She'll whistle & he'll innocently wink, That's best friends in love, don't you think?

It's a long journey, there is not enough time to cheer; Laugh, love and live....enjoy the present when it's here. When you'll be gone, vanished in the sands of time one day, There'll be no time for being crazy, so say what you wanna say, If you love someone, let them know now it's better than dying with regrets somehow. Break rules, do what is not supposed to be done Be careful you never disrespect or unknowingly hurt anyone.. Go clubbing, drink loads, dance like mad, Ask your crushes out, confess these flings to mom and dad. Don't control your actions, let them speak loud and clear Live don't just survive...it's a beautiful life you've got in here Aliens die to be earthlings they don't get the chance And whilst you're here, in the art of loving and living you must freelance. Earn loads of money, save a little but spend it too, You earned it for the family which also includes YOU. Forget and forgive, get over cranky things, Pamper yourself w...

Dear Super Boss,             You already know what i am gonna say,  Calm down... I'll pen it down anyway. Let me take you to the time we first met,  lovely conversation i remember, you bet!!!  I was at my desk, rushing with work with no time to waste,  you came and offered me some sweet stuff to taste. They say sweets bring luck, i don't care actually,  but it introduced me to you, so it was lucky, factually. We went on to share some random laughs and stories thereafter, Awestruck by your aura I could express my fondness just with my naughty laughter. Don't know if you got the cue, I waited back sometimes to leave with you, I was committed when we met, couldn't figure why the fondness but knew it was true. You guided me with work, ideas and the corporate processes I admired you for being there and rescuing me out of my random messes. You knew i was worried n how i had wished...

 Crush...Infatuation...Attraction...call it by any name...I would still refer to it as puppy love or puppy 'like' to be precise (Love is beyond us..mortals atleast at 22). We meet numerous people, interact with them, are in regular talks with them for work or friendship or just company...and gradually we get into a 'habit' of being with them. We start growing fond of them and eventually 'like' them that way ;) Poor little heart! Little does it know, that we fall for people at the drop of a hat...However,that's what makes us dynamic and youthful...So here i narrate to you the story of Aisha Sen, a lifestyle magazine journalist...full of life and 'like' for random nice ppl she comes across...absolutely clumsy yet beautiful...silly yet intelligent...gullible yet decisive...she is irony personified! Women love attention and applause..they love to be praised and complimented..the very fact that they sometimes strive to look tomboyish reiterates the ma...

You knew my inhibitions, you knew my fears, you knew of my smiles, you knew my tears I confided in you, in you alone. my closest confidant in you i have known I don't hate you for parting ways, I adore you still in so many ways. No regrets, no blame games, no complaints, to err is human, we ain't no saints! You've given me grief, but happiness too, I became prettier when i belonged to you. There were times i'd stroll in the happy past and soon realize that it's not gonna last. Thank you for everything,for becoming 'the one', for smiles, for tears, for lessons n the fun Not everything ends with 'a happily ever after', but we could definitely catch up over coffee and some laughter...

Tears in my eyes as I sit to write this, There’s something important that I really did miss! Ma, just want to say this to you, I love you so much, I really do. A woman of substance you have always been, Given me strength & support umpteen, I grew up listening to your lovely laughter, You made me a worthy daughter. You sacrifice always to give me what I need, You taught me how to live, m lucky indeed! You never dominated or bossed around,  In you, my closest friend, I found! A companion when I had no one with me,  A playmate to play around with glee! My teacher, my guide you have always been,  Even in the worst of times, in you, a light I have seen. There were times I woke up not wanting to fight anymore,  You gave me your hand and I felt so strong, like never before! I stood up again and you taught me how to walk,  I learned to believe in myself, and from a cipher to cheerfully balk! You understood me when I refus...

I Love You...*silence....a long soothing silence*... A sense of bewilderment, of wonder, of joy and of course excitement...you tend to miss a beat....The most amazing emotion in a mortal's life is Love...Any kind of love... be it a mother, your family, a friend or your lover.... The bond is a rather strong one once it involves unwavering trust, staunch support and unparalleled understanding. Nothing and no one impacts your life as much as the person you love does. The world might be hating you or demotivating you or giving you mammoth reasons to cry but that one person who loves you is good enough a reason to hold on and keep trying until you reach the desired goal. Here's a story of naive innocent first love...Aisha fell in love with this guy early last April, it was a prolonged crush which finally culminated into an official commitment over a year. It was her first ever relationship, scared that she was of losing him, made a point to listen to him come what may. He was ...

The summer of 2011...just out of college...hopeful eyes...full of dreams...no clue of what to do, where to go, how to do...just a tiny belief that I can and I will...so trusting, so gullible, so unaware and yet optimistic...Google came to the rescue as usual... Random job applications...over dozens of interviews...all in vain...when out of the blue...got into a bank as a sales consultant....Overjoyed as I was unaware of what it meant to sell insurance...*facepalm*...rather a short stint there...which lasted a little more than the training period as i moved on to public relations... Google again to the rescue...i asked..'PR Firms in Mumbai'...bang came the list of a no. of firms....so here i was sending resumes across firms in Mumbai....got a random call from CMCG India...had liked the firm not because of the amazing client portfolio which is the logical way of liking a company but coz of it's amazing name...Communications Management Consulting Group India...sounds heavy n...
