Before it starts ...


Yeah ... time’s up finally ! Break of almost 3 months, doing nothing, an uncertain future just a surety that I was to enter a new phase of my life. A new life, where all what I had done till date are just going to be the memories I will cherish all my life, A time now to build something tangible out of it,   C5JA5USXBN6F a time to show the world what all I am about, time to realise what just used to come out of my mouth when anyone used to ask me “Beta, kya karna chahti ho life mei?”, a time to put in what all I have learnt till today, time that could no longer help me blame my wrongs on my innocence, on my childish sulkiness ...

So, in short everybody is scared to take on something new, deal with the new challenges, and I ai’nt no exception to it.  But still just thinking about the times when “responsibility lena seekho” would start being another tacit thing makes me nauseated.

Time to bid bye to those when all that proved my identity was my school identity card, time to enter into a horizon of relationships, more like responsibilities  Yee-haaww I am going be another earning member of my family. Time to change drastically from who I was and become who I am going to.
This all may sound like the sms that has been floating around in the friends’ circle. I am sure everybody would have had chance to read it, but its no joke now. It all now feels kinda real.

Trifecta : Rain that saved her ! - Episode 3

It was a Saturday, a normal day-off for everybody else that she had gone to the office with the dying hope of her project meeting its deadline, that they actually met. Both have been working in the same offices for quite some time, more like a couple of years, even sitting in the adjacent cubicles but they had barely interacted; except from the occasional hi’s and the good mornings’. There was always a reluctance, a sheer hesitation in his eyes even when they would rise in order to wish her the same. To everybody, he was just another workaholic who would move out of his cubicle, make a beeline to the pantry, take coffee, and make another beeline back to his place. So, that day, just for company’s sake over lunch, she asked Vishal to join her. And since then, everything had started falling out of place. She had expected it to be a sour company, a dull conversation if at-all. Out of courtesy,they offered each other, Vidya offering him her self-made  matar-paneer  an...

My life in the box

I live in a box. My world may seem strange to you. But, it’s not as bad as you think. It does have holes in it which lends me some fresh air from time-to-time. You may think I must be scared of the big-burly cat living on the outside but I am not. We are kind of best friends. I can listen to all the chatter from outside.  But now I can close my ears whenever I want to without anyone seeing. The holes, I must reveal now, ain’t my best friends either. They complicate things for me because I can’t feel the total darkness here because of them. Just when I am about to, rays of sun from these holes try to illuminate it down here for me as if I am some impotent chap, not capable of doing that on my own. They just don’t get it! So if they are not going to stop playing this naïve game, they are going to get a worthy opponent in me. And so in retrospect, I plastered few of them with black paper. But now, right this moment, I want to live out in the open again, enjoy the warmth...

Trifecta: Dream Dream, come again !

He had dreams. Many of them! Everytime he’d fail he’d spawn few more. But he had jotted them all down so when he achieves his first he could say, “Life was worth it!” ________________________________________________________________________ Link to Trifecta Homepage:  http://www.trifectawritingchallenge.com/ This is my submission for this weekend’s  Trifextra challenge . We had to write exactly 33 of our own words inspired by the following quote from the book we could win in the WBN  giveaway.
