The Aider

Throughout her childhood
She was the prettiest child
For her mother,
In the whole wide world.

Her every wish was granted,
Not to forget the everlasting pampering
And why not, because
She was the only child.

Then as she grew up,
She met people.
Had severe affection towards
A person who didn't deserve!

The mother saw the danger
That was lying ahead.
Because the people who love
Know when you went crying to bed.

She rang the alarm bells
But it was of no use
Her soul was set on fire, the person
At any cost she won't loose.

But have you ever heard that
Once when the hunter caught the stork.
And fed it to make it fat
But the stork believed he loved him.

When the priest from the monastery
Purchased the storks to
set them free, they flew
Back to the hunter impassionately!

The mother's efforts went in vain
Couldn't describe how she felt.
Hurting herself try and explain,
But there are some people you can't help!

What Not to do on Trips

Recently I went on a trip to Mumbai for over a week. I had a friend with me a few other people in the group. So the company you have might play a very important role in how your trip goes. So this friend of mine along with one other girl took the luggage and we settled in one of the hostel rooms. There were total 22 girls and total 4 rooms were given to us, so we had to adjust a lot. We had this advantage that my friend was such a bully that no one wanted to share the room with us. So we 3 people comfortably rested in our room while in some rooms 9 people had to adjust. But never mind.

This trip was long waited and I wanted to make the most out of it. But on the first the first day itself I lost my booklet for the fest, which was kind of passport for the campus and tickets to the concert. Say, the only thing we had to keep most safely with us. This was not a shock as I had lost my pendrive and 4k rupees in my Kolkata trip. I expect such kind of things always. Pretty glad I didn't loose any money this time, felt like trauma for some time. Last year I lost 8k rupees in total. So I thought this could be kind of new year resolution, but I have no control over it.

Moving on, I wanted to visit so many places, I had a list prepared. But as I said company plays an important role I had to go where the group wanted. Maybe we should have planned and synchronized our respective lists! But we had fun anyways, maybe sometimes unplanned things are the best( not every time XD).

Then in the rest of trip, I was with my flatmates. We traveled in local trains, buses, cabs, everything economical yet comfortable. We planned to visit Delhi next time as it is connected by metros which makes traveling more convenient. Totally unexpected things started happening when we reached Lonavla. We had new friends who took us to the most beautiful places one could visit there.

Driving any moped in hill stations is itself a thrilling experience. So that's how I enjoyed this trip, all sober! When I lived in Nainital I was a small kid. Visiting Lonavla made me want to live in the hills again. Cause now we can visit a place and feel the ambience, absorb it.

P.s.- If you can drive in the hills without falling, declare yourself a pro!

Just..

It's remarkable how everyone is successful in being busy, to avoid feeling lonely to feel how they actually feel. Some of the people get affection from so many others. But some are starving, emotionally. Sometimes it feels like no one is there to ask how you actually feel.

I have found ways to keep myself busy too. It's kinda dilemma. How should we lead our life. Ignore the things that hurt and absorb the happy aura around happy things. Or should we feel every moment, that occurs. To think and learn, or to just pass by thick and thin quickly.

Today is one of the days where I'm feeling low without a cause. Overthinking. Though last year has been one of the best years for me. But maybe that's because I ignored everything ugly that came my way. And accepted the love which came by. Kept myself busy in traveling, studying, socializing and some times killing time anyhow.

Things have turned out to be how they were supposed to be. So maybe that's the way of living. The less you let things affect you, the less you give attention to anything, less annoyed you'll be with yourself and life. Wish I was like that always.
