Isn't it just a NUMBER!!!

Age? Have I heard it right? I would want to give this age stuff  a food for thought. What is the fuss all about?
It seems to be all normal and happy going with the number twenty. Come thirty and there starts the slight panic button and forty-all hell breaks loose. May be it works differently for both the genders. For men, life can start at forty and for women it can either start or cease.

In today’s times, looking at the way things have changed everyone is into tricking their bodies to look young and hide that age. As if, it is a taboo or maybe a concept of looking young forever. This age thing too is tweaked and has its side of hypocrisy.

This so-called age does not come in the way when one gets into a relationship or has to achieve goals in life or starts to live life all over again. It becomes a number and nothing more than that. This age becomes an inspiration and an example for others to follow. It becomes a source of positive and courage. 
On the other side, it fails when one has to come to terms with the same number and reveal it. There is so much denial. There is a race to hide it, rather reverse it.

With so much help and methods available in today’s world, it seems to be more evident and a must factor to look young rather than feel young. There comes the rescue...age reversal materials available that makes one look younger from the outside.

Maybe age is starting to understand all of this and is getting to behave the human way. No soon does it get in touch with the personal self it starts looking out to hide and not come up openly. May be it knows it will perish someday or does not want to encounter the D-day. It knows for sure the clock is ticking and wants to keep others at bay from getting closer. It wants to hide from the entire universe escape the universal clock. It wants to reverse the clock somehow.

Nevertheless, how about the inner age? A known fact is-To be young is a gift. It is more so when one feels young in heart and soul. The inner age grows in number day by day and one cannot dupe it. It will go wiser and older in time and will know the worth. It knows the time to come and the ones cherished and lost

The inner self-age knows it all and comes as a true saviour of the show-off age. It taps the outer one, and gently reminds of the changing times and how one has grown with it. The manner it has groomed to have its own individuality with unmatched thoughts and ideas. The growth starts to mature. The timed age starts growing gracefully.


Then, there comes a phase, wherein the age on the outside puts an end to all the glitter around. It finally stays stop... Let us re-live and breathe. At such a phase, it just seems like a number and nothing more than that. In addition, when one encounters it, accepts it with open arms by all means, one just says -WOW... isn’t it just a NUMBER!

I am You AND You are Me!

Have you ever thought about comparison? Something that is so easy to do but is highly complex in its form? As a Child and a growing adult, I detested being compared with anyone. I did not understand the reason.  I kept thinking, how can one be compared with another? It is often executed as if it does not matter and is done as a matter of fact! I never understood why it is even done... One thing I knew was how it made me feel. What implications it can have. Comparison is a mighty Tool. It often breaks one but at times builds the Craziest ones. The ones it builds end up repeating the "Compare cycle game" Comparison is not saying, you are not doing or studying or performing like the other person but it is also trying and striving to be like a "PARTICULAR PERSON"  Why do you want to be someone else? Be a Photocopy? Why not be YOU? I was often asked, "Who is your Idol? Whom do You follow?" My all-time answer would be "NONE". I say that because there i...

M-M-U-M-B-B-A-I

A city full of opportunities or a city full of dreams…some fulfilled and some unfulfilled. A city that give one so much but takes a lot away from one self.. A place where one will find living souls in numbers but yet so lonely…. A city which is so much close to the heart but yet so distant… A Small universe in itself that would drive anyone crazy…. A place where you find stars glittering on earth… The only city in the country that is always wide awake and no sleep. A rush that wherein one can easily be lost forever and never found. A maddening crowd that always has a smile but eyes ever in search of something…. Eyes that are longing for unknown,the lost dreams,saddening and weary…. A city which is ever helpful in need like a true friend at the same time is a complete stranger…. A metropolitan wHere one has time for everything but still no time for oneself….. This is the Mumbai that i saw and felt through my eyes and soul… At such times is when i remember …. YE DIL HAI MUSHKIL JEE...

WOMAN-THY NAME.....

Strong as a rock, emotions running deep as the ocean, patience of a saint, sweet as nectar, innocence that of a child, Mysterious like the universe, thoughtful and wise like a preacher, at the same time furious like the fire, anger like the volcano but above all someone who stands against all odds...This is no one but a WOMAN. As I was passing by I heard someone ask. Do we really need a special Day to celebrate for Women? I t can be taken in 2 ways. One—Maybe because she is special always OR in a note so positive form—Like Why do we need a special day for her? Don’t we already have so many days to celebrate?? Well, my take is...we have valentine’s day for people to express love –rather people who love each other, we have mother’s day, father’s day, May day so on and so forth. But, they are categorized for either a section of people OR for certain relationships.  I feel, Woman's day is a day that acknowledges the female gender, as a whole, irrespective of age, nation...
