PRICE TAG !

Streets of Ahmedabad..i walked by and got into a showroom where i wanted to pick some good stuff for myself..While seeing the clothes I definately had to keep an eye on the price tag and pick something budget friendly for myself as it was the month end..I saw a lady trying to wear a salwar kameez probably for the first time..She felt little awkward wearing and checking out herself everytime she tried out a new one ,and secondly when finally she decided to buy for herself first time,the price tag was a problem..I noticed her inconvinience and also the charm on her face fade away while seeing the tag..She left the dress and walked towards exit..

I quickly rushed to check the price of her dress.It was Rs 500.A sudden thought came in my mind..I changed the tag telling the helper there to exchange our tags.(OFCOURSE AFTER I GAVE A COMMITMENT M GOING TO PAY THE REST AMOUNT)The helper walked by to the lady and asked her if she wanted to buy the dress..The lady said thats its probably out of my budget Later the helper said her that she forgot to put the discount tag and it costed only Rs 250(i.e price tag of my shirt) and if she was interested and showed her of her choice of colour and size.The lady smiled and chose a colour of her choice and when i walked in near trial room to check her expression,i found her with a big smile and while walking out she asked me ," can u suggest me something?does this suit me ? i am wearing it first time ..will my husband like it ? ".I smiled and said ,"u look gorgeous and your husband would love it " :)

Wants Vs Needs !!












I lived somewhat a life much more peaceful and lavish than most of people in this country .As every kid I too valued it but never noticed or realised the "need " for it .I lived most of my life in the campus where I am showered with lots of comfort zone .I live like a princess.I shifted to Ahmedabad and there the story began to understand the journey of " wants and needs ".I realised slowly how difficult it is for one to struggle to take a penny off the pockets from morning tea till the dinner .
I faced the journey of "survival for the fittest " by earning every drop of water i had to my bread of the day !

Its so difficult to strive for water,food,to tie up ones self dignity in the ocean of life where you find everything at place than truth,dignity,easy living ,emotional values ,morals and ethics.I am glad I maintained it to one level.

We all are part of this journey,lets help each other and start putting a hand forward to help the needy!Above picture touched my heart and I realised the distance between " wants and needs" They are in "NEED" and probably all of us in one or the other way !

Help calling !! Please keep a step forward !
Its never too late to "realise"!!

A hidden Soul !!












I find a hidden wish,I find a hidden dream;
Helpless soul wandering !


I find a lonely self,I find an ambition behind;
Scattered hope dispersing !


I find an endless need,I find a hand to reach;
Wishing you are hearing !


I find a peak so high,I find a hope to reach the sky;
Believing you are supporting !


I find a confident self,I find a light within;
Thinking you are motivating !


Come and reach me ,
I wanna  grow ,
I wanna shine ,
I wanna be the true self of "mine"

When I saw this picture it kept me busy thinking all time at the back of my mind,just thinking about it,I tried to pen down few immediate thoughts that came in my mind .I hope I did little justice to something we see behind the walls.
Will get back with something more in somewhile :)

Only mine !

Thinking of you makes the starry night bright.

Dreaming of you makes my everything so delight .

Wishing secretly you were mine,only mine.

This heart skips a beat thinking you'l be mine ,only mine .

Coffee memories !!










Empty cup besides mine ,reminds me our cup share

The curtains flow,reminds me your times I shared

Today an empty window and an empty cup
Just thinking when we'll make it up

Stars in the sky say you are here
But I console self you'l surely be here

Lifes so fucked ,make it right
Lets work it up for a perfect sight

Together is 'u' and 'me';
Where are you,when its me here,
Where you lost ,when I am here

Thinking of you every night ,
Makes my day bright and light

Come back to me,we can work it right
Empty cup besides mine reminds me our cup share.
