Adjustment's : a daily part of our life


“Adjust” this is one word that ever Indian relates to. When a kid is born in an Indian family one thing the parents will for sure teach the kid is "beta adjust kar lo" When my parents told me this I never knew that this word would become a part of my FOREVER.... Be it as a kid when we where taught things which didn't make sense (ps: the sun rises in the east and set in the west..duh the sun never sets but things were different when we where kid's) Be it the hot summer afternoon's when going to school in that much heat was an achievement, each day when we have to breathe all kinds of unhealthy gases that cars release, day’s where for a single ticket you have to stand for hour's in huge Que ,day's where you are nothing but surprised when the local  train's are on time ... All these years each day we have all done one thing daily and that is ADJUST..people in India adjust with everything be it when people with influence get their work done faster in a government office or at times when you have scored high percentage still you can't get admission in a particular college cause someone else is given preference cause he belongs to the student quota for that college. If you ask me which adjustment I like the most it has to be adjusting oneself on the fourth seat of the local train which technically is made for just three people but what to do "this much at least we should adjust"  .Frankly speaking NO I wouldn't want the further generation to be like us,people who are willing to adjust even when they know its wrong. I want a generation that can question every wrong thing and stand for their rights who can realize Adjustment is a choice and not a Compulsion. People say India is a developing country and yes indeed it is but are we all walking on the path of development is a question we should ask our self and work together for building an adjustment free India.

Treat Others As You Want To Be Treated

My motto has always been when in doubt write it out, I have been thinking about this for a really long time and I think I have finally  found the words.  You got to do something for me, think about the last time you bumped into someone or someone by mistake hit your hand. I doubt you can recall this instance now think of the time when someone said something to you which made you feel really small or miserable. I am sure you could think of at least one or two. Look at it this way when someone bumped into you it must have hurt you that time may be it even left your skin red, got a few reactions out of you. On the other hand when someone said something to you, randomly used a few words which left no physical scar on you it is this instance that you clearly remember, you know why because it is the way they made you feel.  The sad fact is that we have all done this, we have become the generation th...

Airport Romance- Chapter three

This is the moment I know I should say something to her something that would make her feel better, but I am out of words. It is so refreshing to see someone who is so in touch with her emotions. “God, here I am telling you my life story and I don’t even know anything about you. So what are you running from?” saying this her switch has worked again, there is a massive smile on her face and the spark is coming back. “I am running from my work, same old boring story.” “It cannot be that bad, what do you work as?” “ I am an actor.” “An actor, I haven’t met one before, are you any good.” “ Decent, I have a few fans here and there.” “Give me you phone.” “Oh okay, here you go.” I am not sure what she is looking for, but I can see her trying to google something. “You call yourself decent? God how many awards have you won?” “I have  a long way to go trust me.” There it is again she knows I am an actor and just like everyone else she is going to act all weird now. ...
