When it's time, you know !

As if I know everything about Life...

Life is always a "age range bracketed" race, at certain age we compete and run along others to get something, when we were 10, we wanted the same toys/games like our friends got, at 15 we were into marks and percentage race, who gets admission where, at nearly 22- career race, who gets employed where & how much..here race slows a bit down (some people stop & think) or some moves even faster, then settlement, house/flat, who got how big flat, where and how much..then obviously comes marriage. Within few years you are expected to have children, after this stage, seats changed, we are almost halfway done, the doer so far now becomes seeker & again same drama repeats.

Those who stay away from this..are often suspected or ridiculed.:D

just a passing thought. no personal offense, i'm also part of it :)

  tera shehar jo peechhe chhut raha
kuch andar andar tut raha
hairaan hai mere do naina
yeh jharna kahaan se phut raha

...jab jab chaha tune rajj ke rulaya
jab jab chaha tune khul ke hasaya
jab jab chaha tune khud mein milaya
ik tu hi tu hi tu hi tu hi......."

Is there any difference...

Date: 1 September 2011
Time: 9:45 A.M.
Venue: Hadapsar
Setting: Ganesh Chaturthi. Ganesha festival starting from today, heavy traffic, slight rain, lots of people on road, lots of stalls.
What I was doing: Rushing to office on the bike for the 10 A.M. standup.


When we were kids we saw elders telling us not to be affectionate with the clay dolls,
Today I saw elders bare feet, holding the clay dolls close to there heart so that no raindrops touches it.

We were told not to talk rubbish while playing with clay dolls, rather they were amused and called it child's play. 
Now for 10 days even the elders will talk for hours with there clay dolls, they may not talk openly but from within they are telling everything to these dolls.

We were crying when those dolls broke, elders were consoling us to buy a new one.
Exactly after 10 days, on 10th Sep, these elder and younger eyes will be filled with tears as there clay dolls will be taken away. While doing so, they will console themselves & only say.
"Ganpati Bappa Morya, Pudhchya Varshi lavkar ya "

Time: 9:50 A.M.

Venue: Hadapsar

Setting: Ganesh Chaturthi. Ganesha festival starting from today, heavy traffic, slight rain, lots of people on road, lots of stalls.

What I was doing: Calmed down, the shades were wet both outside & inside, was observing the elders and younger alike. The joy was evident on there face, drums beating around as they carried there idols to home, wanted to be part of them, the next 5 minute I was not different from that crowd, I was part of them.

Life is an expression of joy, innocence, heartfelt emotions...
