One fine day, Bird leaves the nest !!!

Few months / years back, my Dad's kids were inseparable. Talking school / college gossip, office nuisance, technical talks, philosophy diggings, self made theories, analysis, conclusions, everything was routine. Whole day chit chat and my Mom was like 'How much you guys have to talk?'

That time probably we never thought of being apart. Even our Dad dreamt of a big house where we 3 will be together forever (no joking, seriously !!!).

But as they say - Only permanence in universe, is Change.

As Wheels of Time rolled to add number of greys, we grew up in our careers, got better opportunities for better growth; money and things kept moving. And, now when I look back, we three are at three difference places, busy in our own new daily routine, We still do all the talking / gossiping, but far less than how it was earlier. We probably could have never imagined that, we would survive with this less talking to each other.

However, as the saying goes, a Bird will always leave the Nest. That's the Nature.

Everyone has to their own part to play and contribute. However, important is, we are still inseparable even after being apart.

Point is - Distance doesn't make or break a bond / relation. Even when someone is away, that wouldn't diminish the relationship, nor being close by would better a relationship. It is up to us, how we enrich ourselves from feeling of togetherness.

We leave school, college; switch jobs; change houses, premises, because this is how life takes us for ride.

Leaving is part of life, while being together is a choice.
We have no choice but to ride wheels of time alone, still we always have an option not to loose touch.
Nothing or no one  is permanent in life, except yourself.  
Live for what and who matter today.

Losing the sense of self to find myself again

6 months since my girl is gone and I still dread that night. I don't know if I dread or still can't believe how 2 hours can topple your life equations. I thought it was just the usual summer heat, gave her curd, and water; took her on my lap, making her drink some more water. And suddenly she had hiccups or some shocks, and stool came out. We rushed to the hospital, and I held her. She weighed 17-20 kg. Not a lot compared to my Doberman. While taking her through the elevator, I could feel her getting heavier, and my heart sinking deeper with that weight.  Just so much heaviness, and madness at that moment. I forgot my phone, Akshar picked up my sister's car key. Her husband was coming with us. While we were just leaving, she came running with her 2-year-old, saying the door got closed and Coffee (my Doberman) was inside. And all of us forgot the house keys. We left, while her husband stayed to figure out how to open the door. We were driving to Aundh Crown Hospital, and Aks...

Distorted Reality

It's been a while and finally this is getting out of my head.  J I borrow this title from  'S teve Jobs' by  Walter Isaacson , because M anipulation sounded RUDE  L  and I have already been sitting over this topic for months. It is making me restless. Once my brother told me that as we grow up, we lose our innocence and start manipulating people to believe in our own ideals. I have been thinking over this for quite sometime. Does it come with age or this is our natural instinct? In our eco-system, many animals play dead or  camouflage  etc. (Zoology doesn't like me  L ). They are manipulating others to believe in their fake identity. I don't think they ever take classes for it. It comes naturally to them as part of their survival instinct. After all we as well are social animals. Although our survival needs are different, but instinct is probably same. Talk about innocence in Kids . Ummm?!!? They know how to ...

#MeToo embarrassed, ashamed, and Strong #MumbaiGirls

Those were the initial days when I had started travelling alone. For the first time in 15 years, I was travelling alone by Bus. I was anxious, worried if I will get down at correct stop or not. I would have asked almost 5 times to people if Ghatkopar station came, got down and I had no clue which way is station. Finally, I reach other side of the station and take another Bus, reach college. Wow! It is not so difficult Amrita. You can get used to it! I was wearing a fitted Sky Blue Salwar Kameez which was one of my favorites. While returning, Buses were not as empty as in the morning and I have no idea how to get into that. 4 Buses gone. Alright, need to get into that now, looked at people and next bus I’m in that crowded Bus. I’m in that fully packed Bus and touched everywhere, can’t say if it is space or intention. Ignore and keep moving! Now it is routine and everyday new story. Someone touching bottom, someone front. I can keep my Bag either front or back. I decide, it is ...
