I Don't Own My Smile! Neither Do u!!

" Sir, smile please!!" said the photographer  trying to take a pic of the guy.
" I cant..whenever i try to smile it doesnt look good" said he too much fed up.

"Sir, just widen your lips n shrink ur eyes,,, u r smiling :)"  said the photographer.
"Had it been that simple, no one would ever have a sad face dude.
Smile means more than just an expression on your face, its feeling man."

Smile, a beautiful expression u don't own. You give it to others, u are just paid back :)


The best smile you get, with the satisfaction that you made someone happy!

There, in a dense forest, lived a clan of people, just like all of us. Just one difference that these people dont have an elbow. Means their hands are always stretched straight, and they can't bend it!!

Now wonder what?? the most important thing..how will they eat?!!??
It kinda landed a curse on these people...in a lush green forest with almost everything to eat but none can eat.
This clan became sad, lean, hungry but could eat nothing.

One day, they met people of another clan.So happy, fat, healthy ....suprised bcoz their hands too dint have an elbow. Then how come they eat??? how are they so happy?? n healthy!!!

The reason they said was astonishingly superb. They said, " We dont have elbow, so we cant feed ourselves but we can feed others!!! thats what we do :) we feed each other!!"

When you make others happy no wonder, unknowingly you get that smile on your face!!! That happiness you deserve for the favour of happiness u do!!!

Make others happy, thats the way to be happy!!!

Raksha---A Promise Made!!!

Festive mood all around, energy all around. It wasn't deevali, neither holi, not even valentine's day!!!
Its Raksha Bandhan!!!

  Guys with hand full of colored ropes, proudly displaying it...as if they had won an Olympic cup.A proud feeling that they own so many sisters. A few looking out with eager eyes if anyone would tie them a rakhi. There are a still few running away and girls chasing them to tie a rakhi...the most funniest thing dat happens.

 

  In a most festive way, girl applies tilak on the brother's forehead, ties a rakhi on the wrist of her brother, feeds him with a few sweets and in return the brother acknowledges her with a gift.

   In Hindi,  "Raksha" means "protection" and " Bandhan" means "Bond"; "Raksha Bandhan" a bondage of protection. A girl ties a rakhi to her brother and in return the brother bestows blessings on his sister and a promise to protect her dignity, protect her from all the problems and difficulties.

  Its become a fantasy that girl ties a rakhi, the guy becomes a brother. This festive is no relation making, like tying a marriage knot around a girl's neck and she becomes a wife. Rakhi is a bond so sacred that promises protection and honor.


And in return for a rakhi, demanding a gift is another fantasy ;) just like a dowry in a marriage!!!

The best relation a girl can have, a feelings on top of the world...when she knows she has all the protection she needs. A way to express her love and care for her brother...and inturn when brother promises it all!!!





Happy Raksha Bandhan Brothers!!!
Am already feeling on the top of the world!!!

Lucky sister i am :D

Destination Destined!! Yet Journey Unknown!!!

A morning just like any other day but it wasn't so for the young boy who was woken up by his dad saying
" hay get up, results will be out in an hour...n u r still sleeping????"

He woke up so lazed out. No expectations or eagerness for the results to come. So calm was his mind but for the more expecting criticism outside.

Just like any other mom, the most loving n caring person on earth so faithfully believing and praying for her son's future was another eager person waiting.

In an hour his results were out. Dad read him out his score and wasn't so happy about it. Nothing much happened about his results until something hard struck them.

"Hay wats ur score man??" asked criticism. He replied, "Not much dude. Scored less".
"Ahh.. i told people you weren't studious...not u proved it. So last time when u scored it wasn't your hardwork but some crooked work and some help!!!!" said criticism too happy to know his fall down.

Astonished by the  words he looked at his dad, his eyes wide open, more astonished than he was...speechless he stood as though some vampire struck lashes at him.

His dad walked into his room. Not a word again, as he stood wondering what was going on.
He just closed his eyes in a flash he recalled those days.

A bright, hardworking, calm guy with only aspiration to study well and rise high. His intentions known by all yet jealousy criticized  often and would bring him down. But he would raise against all odds his spirits soared high.

It was the day when his secondary exams results had come. His hardwork was answered. His joys rejoicing.
Expectations met, prayers fulfilled, spirits rewarded. Yet the criticism had his role to play.

"Hay they say you got district second coz ur school helped you illegally  in getting so, so that its name would roar high!!! Is it??"

Now how could a reward be proved when its hardwork itself was doubted??? 


Those words struck him like the rain of spikes yet pain not revealed for his patience had still got its tuffness too hard to  be defeated.

"I will let the way my life leads me. My hardwork will prevail and i ll complain not my fate!!!" said he opening his eyes with a hard reality ahead.

A sudden knock at the door. He opened the door just expecting not any more such surprises dat pull him down when it was just changed by a smile on his face.

"Hay dude, how r u? Its been a long time since we met. Come in...am soo happy to see u" said he smiling like a baby at the sight of candy.

" Am fine man. I heard about ur results. Was shocked by the way people talked abt it. How come you scored less?? " asked his eager frnd, the only gud companion on earth who knew him well amidst all those criticisms.

He sadly replied, " What do i say, change of school...different environments..adaptation problem..unstable mind.....i thought i will write my exams the next year. But somehow my teachers made me write it this year.
I wasn't prepared enough to write them this year. I had already given up when i was suddenly asked to take them up. Whatever its all over now!!!"

"Ohh never mind man...it happens sometimes. So what planning to do next??" asked his friend.

"Joined B.Sc  man..." said he in a mild tone as though his strength was total exhausted.

His exclaimed frnd asked  "Y man??? R u crazy??? Ur scores are low but got a gud cutoff... you will get a gud clg in engineering...Dude thats your dream, don't let it down. People talks are just like mother- in- laws....finding faults in everything...this shouldn't drift u down. Go join engineering and live your dream!!!" 

He applied for engineering but continued to do his B.Sc. He got a seat in an  esteemed engg college.
But still people criticized of the course he chose.

Unaware was he.... of his destiny. The journey he was going through...the path too hard to climb.
Like climbing through the thorns....to reach the roses!!!

A confused he..aimless of what's happening...hardly could he see through the mist of his tangled mind.
Yet kept up his hardwork.....eagerness to do something...his faith in himself and spirits kept high as always.
Just waiting in patience, for the right time to show the world wat he s worth of.

He waited for four years, when it was time he proved himself of all odds, against all criticisms.
It was time for his placements.
Criticism again... how could it miss this moment...it's been a part of his life now.
It said, "Your course doesn't offer a gud placement...you are going to be jobless like the many others out there. "

Now that he was already used to all these...it din't sound any worse this time but just put it on his faith so hard to work out through it.

A month later...he was walking his way to the market with his dad.

A guy stopped him on his way and with foxy eyes asked him " Hay...u seem to be jobless like i told you.
I know u cant make it any good. You realised it too late now. You are now doing the household chores...hahahaa".

His dad now had to repay the past debt, he said, "He is now placed in an MNC and is not as jobless as you are son. He is just living his dreams now!!!"

The guys was just "!!????!!!!?!?!?!" and looked at him...as he stood with a pleasant smile.
Pleasant smile is wat it was ...but for that guy...it was like the wind that struck him so hard of the reality..
shook  him of his senses. Bestowed on the every pain he suffered when he was criticized.

Now he proved himself...not by his words...but by the very smile that was long lost into the sea of pain, of sufferings unexplainable.

He, the sandalwood in a forest where snakes surround...
That now lay in a castle with admirers around!!!
