SoulfulUnsobriety

Bored and nothing to do, I was randomly checking my Facebook account, when I got a notification of a school friend ‘liking’ my profile picture. I check her display pic from the notification and could see that she has put on some weight; curious, I check her   account and saw that she has indeed put on a lot of weight and her face had heavy make-up. I scroll down to check more pictures and saw an album where her husband is kissing her beautiful baby bump and I had a twirl of emotions inside my heart. Indeed, I was delighted to see that my school friend is expecting a baby! I check few more photos and saw how happy she looks! And suddenly, I was lost in the reverie of memories. Few years ago, when we were in school and later in high school, I still remember, they were one of the cutest couple I had seen. Holding hands, kissing in empty lab room, stealing glances across classroom, and those little fights! Later when the girl and I were in same degree college, s...

It was unusually sunny at 7 am in the morning. Sujata and myself we were ready on the said time and waiting in the hotel lobby for everyone else to come, to start the exiting journey! However, the waiting seemed like forever, as people were taking their own slow time to get ready and come downstairs. Some bikers were getting ready with their gears, a few people taking photos, while Manav was hustling around, making sure everything is all set for the journey. While I and Sujata were sleepy and getting a little annoyed for no one was on time and were already running late from our decided time, I saw a young boy, a sardar , of course, looking a little lost and fidgeting with his bag. I examined the bag on the hotel entrance steps – a brown coloured, medium sized, leather bag pack with camera and lenses. “Oh, this must be that photographer, Manav was talking about” I wondered, a little too loud for my friend, Sujata to hear. She looked into the direction of my gaze and...

It doesn't always take 1 moment or 1 incident or 1 instance to break a relationship; it's a build up of many such moments or incidents or instances! I say this because at first we ignore, then we choose to give that person a chance. This is followed by another chance. Then, we start making observations and taking notes, mentally, of such things. Slowly, little by little a part of us starts pulling away from that person, a part of our heart dies. And then, it's only a dead plant! You can't uproot it; something you cannot do because you are the nice person in the relationship with a golden heart. You don't water it either, because no matter how much water or care you put it, it is dead! All relationships are like plants - you sow a seed. You water it. Then slowly it starts growing into a tender plant. You put in more efforts and care and love and it starts getting stronger! Over a period of years, the small fragile plant grows into a grown tree; it has ...

When she compromised her time To watch over her child, Is the time to realise That a woman loves her man. When she finds the rainbow in the rain Lets nobody find her in pain, Be it anytime anyday; She loves him everyday. Stays up late to watch him sleep Reminds him what to eat It is something that she cares When a woman loves a man. And even when he has his flaws But she never dims her love Finding him back to where she stand Because he's her special man. She came here as a child Growing up; not being wild Let him in her heart stay Gave birth, bore the pain Loved the offspring, a bit too mild Hair's grey; she retired But still with him she stands Because that woman loved her man.
