FINAL RENDEZVOUS.....

Alone 

and lonely....

I just stop by,

To say 'Goodbye',

To none else

But to me.......

Heart full of words,

Eyes full of tears 

Facing for the last time..

None else

But only me.....

Devoid of colors
Drained of love
Little is left 
of my Soul..
  
Drenched in the rain
Burnt in the sun!


I cry out 
and Howl..

But.. 
no one to hear my pain,
No one to embrace me hard..


So here, I walk alone..

Saying 'Goodbye'
for the very last Time


To none
But to Me.......

A BEAUTIFUL DREAM.........

You are here, very near
to my heart and me.

A beautiful smile
on ur lips
And your face
full of bliss

Hands stretched forward
only to reach me.


You took my hand in yours
You looked into my eyes

Your warm breath
on my hair
Your soft murmur
in my ear.....


You wiped the tears
from my face
You curled me
in your caring embrace.

You lulled me into sleep
Your voice, so intense and deep.


Is this real,
or a dream of mine?
So vivid, so natural, so divine!

RELATIONSHIP SIMPLIFIED................<3<3....................!!

RELATIONSHIP... A word with a simple definition... Yet a complicated meaning it holds in our lives...... There is hardly any person who can claim to understand the complete meaning of this word..... And maintaining a relationship perfectly, or rather to say ideally, is a distant dream in everybody's life..

Most of us fail to understand the core ingredients of a perfect relationship... Be it the affection filled father-daughter relation, or the romantic relation of two love-birds, or the evergreen 'will stand by your side' relationship between two buddies..... Each of them has something in common, fueling the very need of the relationship.. Any imbalance of these factors and, WHOOSH!!!!!!!!......... A straightaway deterioration in your relationship with your loved ones.......




If we try and explore the main factors which may lead to a PERFECT RELATIONSHIP, all will come up with different views... So without going in any such controversial details, lets try and explore the reasons which may be the main players behind any unsuccessful relationship..

First of all, comes the DEVIL-est of all, that is DECEPTION... This perhaps, has the most devastating effect on any relationship.. Then comes, not so innocent, EGO.. When ego gets involved in a relationship, there are actually four people, instead of two, trying hard to maintain their ends..... POSSESSIVENESS is yet another factor leading to consequences like OBSESSION, SUSPICION and MISUNDERSTANDINGS, which further aggravate a relationship... Then there are miniature factors like lack of adjustment, lack of quality time given towards a relationship, contradicting views on different issues etc. which may look as MINIATURE, but are actually far worse than the above mentioned reasons..!




So, IN BRIEF, for a relationship to be successful, the main focus should be on how one can stick together... TRUST and HONESTY are the keywords behind this!! None can be selfless enough, but yes, getting rid of your ego, will certainly make your base stronger in a relationship... And in order to do complete justice to any relation, one should be open enough to accept the other with his mindset, even if it takes a little compromise from either ends...

All these will definitely lead to a HAPPY RELATIONSHIP, if not a perfect one!........................ :)

NEED VOICES AGAINST INJUSTICE...........

Let me share with you the most bitter experience of my life till date,which I faced yesterday......

A sudden increase in our hostel fees recently, has led many of the hostelites like me to search for accomodation outside the college. Our search was for a good and secure place to live and that should be affordable. Eventually it seemed that my search has ended when I found a good house for accomodation, though at a slightly higher price, Rs.1700 per month. Everything seemed fine. I and my room-mate promised the landlady to pay the advance, Rs.6800 on the very next day and also let her have a conversation with my mother over phone. As promised, I went to their home next day with the money. But then the actual drama started. The landlord started showing many of their extra expenses and asked for 100 rupees more. As I was not ready for that, he promised to give me back my advance money for rent, if my parents, after meeting them do not find the rent affordable. Meanwhile, on that day, I got to know about another house at a much affordable price, Rs.800 only, and also at a safer place.

Next day of these events, that is yesterday, my parents came and confirmed the second house for accomodation as it was a better option. So, as promised by the first landlord, I went to his home to get my money back. But instead of giving it back, he started abusing me with all sorts of offensive languages. He also denied that he promised to give me back my money if I was not willing to stay their. He insulted me in all possible manners and called me names. Also he insulted me on the name and standard of my college. I was asked to leave their house immediately and come back with my mother to get back the money. After an hour, when I again went there with my mother for the money, we were not allowed inside the house for quite a long time, and were made to stand under the scorching sun. Then the landlord came with another person of his society and asked us to come in. He started narrating everything to that person in his own modulated version. And in the middle of his talks, see the audacity of the person, he was constantly using abusive languages against my mother and my family!!!! He didn't return even a single penny and insulted us in all possible manners. We were forced to leave his place empty-handed, losing our hard-earned 6800rupees.

Now, it is my question to all my friends of BCET, being insulted by a so-called educated localite, that too on false grounds, and being denied of my own money, should I keep silent just because I am a student and he is a local person of this place???
What would you do if you were in my place??????
As one can't fight for these sort of things alone, how much support can I expect from you in this matter????

If voices are not raised against these kind of things right now, in near future, there can be many BCETians like me who will be harassed in one or the other way, by these kind of people, and will have to suffer injustice just because they are students and are not localites of this place.....

Common Indian Women : The other name of dynamism

INDIAN WOMAN - portrayed as the NATURAL HOMEMAKER. But lets stop and ponder over one question. Does she play any other roles beyond being homemaker? The answer is a big YES. Perhaps the best synonyms that can be given to womanhood are versatility and dynamism. Today's Indian woman acts as a multiplayer, playing a variety of roles, at home or outside. Even the women from the past, who got opportunities to prove themselves, were seen coming up with flying colours, be it Laxmibai, Sarojini Naidu, Junko Tabei, Indira Gandhi and so on.

Woman has always been the chief architect of her home, which she nurtures from a scratch. She tries to redefine not only the home in which she lives, but also the world that surrounds her. A woman cares for her children as a loving MOTHER, for her parents as an obedient DAUGHTER, for her husband as a dutiful WIFE, for her friends as a COMFORTER and SYMPATHISER, for her colleagues as a fellow CO-WORKER, and for everybody else surrounding her. She never complaints about the versatile personality that she has to bear. But it often happens that the multi-tasking facet of a woman goes unnoticed. She rarely gets any credit for the dynamic roles that she plays throughout her life. In India specially, this is a pretty big problem, prevailing in almost every nook and corner of the country, be it in a small village of Pondicherry or in a metro like Kolkata.

Every year we celebrate WOMEN'S DAY on 8th of March at an international level. But does this celebration in our country signify anything? Is it worth it's name?

We often end up here hyping for the upcoming female enterpreneurs, actors, sportsperson or political leaders and idolise them as a part of Women's Day celebration. But what about the rest of the women of Indian society, hailing from typical middle class families and lower income groups? What about the women who toil day and night to arrange food for her family? What about the women who daily sacrifice their comforts and face hardships, only to bring smile to the faces of her loved ones? Their efforts and sacrifices are seldom recognised. A housewife who works hard to manage her home and keep everything in order, is almost as competent as a lady working in a multinational firm as an HR Executive. But the housewife, despite of being almost equally capable, does not get that much importance as the HR Executive. She is simply taken for granted, who is meant to work for her family fulfil her duties silently. A father from a middle class family is often with a view of getting his daughter married to a wealthy and prosperous groom, and devote very little time, thinking about her basic education and higher studies.

Though the scenario in our country is changing presently (thanks to the NGOs and non-profit organisations), but there is a long way to go. The Indian society will have to break its orthodox conception about women, especially those belonging to lower and middle class of the society. It's high time to give recognition to their dedicated efforts. The Indian people will have to understand that supporting feminism and celebrating Women's Day does not merely mean encouraging and hyping for the elite class ladies, but also motivating and supporting the efforts of the common women from all strata of the Indian society. And it is the responsibility of those women to prove themselves, to achieve success in whatever role they play and to make themselves worthwhile of this recognition. Then it will call for the real celebration of WOMANHOOD in India.
