The Growing Bud

Growing Bud


"She was like a mirror, too fragile to handle but still helps to reflect till her last shattered piece mixes with sand dust!"


Yes, you read it right. She was too fragile to handle. But she was the one who was around me during all the tough times. Maybe we belong to a different community or culture but she understood me more than the one who classifies under the same banner as 'I'. She was someone special!
No, not a lover she was. She was the one who always cared the most. A kind of true friend.The one you find in a lifetime or more. Maybe she was confused with someone else but a true 'girl   friend' she is. See, I left a space between that word and I really meant that. Space I left here, ain't a stereotype but a space that is to be filled when I gonna realise that finally, I could pay her debt. The debt for being so supportive and caring towards me.A kind of best protagonist type from a happy ending Bollywood movie where good triumphs over evil. It's not that being a human she has no flaws but it was like one or two ain't the ones that are gonna affect me. For me, someone like her is judged by her goodness and really I am thankful to her for being the way she is!
Once in our lifetime, we always meet a person like her/him. She can be the one with pretty eyes or he can be the one with perfect abs. All that's gonna matter is how well you were to accept them and how much importance you gave to them. Maybe I realised this sooner or later; I don't know: but truly, it feels too great to accept this: Someone was with me all these years and played an important role along with other well-wishers to lead me at a point where I am happy. They are the special kind of family, a source of strength; a kind of mirror looking at which you always get the reflection of your very own self.
P.S: Hey mate, if you read this do remember-: It ain't even a kind of thing that could pay 1% of the debt I owe but still I wanna thank you for being so good.

    Every person that i met in my life actually taught me something. Some left a mark of love and happiness others just bitterness and rivalry (in general)..happy i am to meet these souls coz they shaped me into what i am today so a friend for me is both good and evil ...and i will call everyone a friend who teaches me a lesson be it the hard or the soft way around.. so in all a friend for me is everyone and i would love to be a friend to them or even more just as they desire any time :)

"Bruises of Love"

Covered in the thread of dark colored clothes,  I could see a smile on her face!  Her make-up was minimal,  Hairstyle on point! A not so common shade of nude lipstick,  Complimented black Kohl in her eyes! ... A galaxy of intellectuals have gathered to mark her existence,  And just like others even I was stunned looking at her innocent face!  I don't know what was written in her faith,  But it would have been certainly better if I wasn't there at that place. ... Yes, Yes, I'm aware,  I've compared certainty with faith here,  but there are things that outlaws the idea of right doing or wrong doing and all we have is that particular state!  This was one of those peculiar moments;  It's not like this was my " first-time " But with her, yes it was!  She pointed at me and winked,  and signalled me to follow her.  I hesitated for...

Art of Judging People V/S Fear of Getting Judged

Do you ever stop yourself from doing something just because of “ log kya kahenge ”? I do! In fact, I’ve judged myself more than anyone else ever has. There are days when we judge others, but the harshest judgment often comes from within. My own vision shackled me with invisible chains.  A constant fear that kept me from being myself: Fear of dancing in public. Fear of getting clicked (what if I look old, not good enough?). Fear of wasting potential, of not living up to “standards.” The Weight of Opinions Over time, these fears weren’t even mine. They were borrowed from the world around me: Too much affection in public? "Wrong. Don't do it!" Getting drunk? “Good people, don’t do that.” Dating someone? “Weren’t you supposed to make it big, first?" Our society writes invisible rules, and we live inside that 10x10 room of opinions. The walls keep closing in, until one day people say, “ Aadmi acha tha, potential bohot tha, bura hua! ” The Circle of Judgement The circle o...
