Faces

Faces in a coffee shop:

There's a girl who is sitting in a corner table like me, engrossed in the mobile like me....And...aaahh, she finally got a call from someone she was expecting it seems. Her smile says it all.

The table beside me has a group of people who are arguing about something very serious in a frolicking manner. I overheard the word investment and startup. May be they are finally pitching in a business idea and moving on from the job which was sucking out the life from inside them.

Then there is the typical corner table where a couple is all mushy in their discussion.
They don't interest me. So moving on.....

A group of friends arguing about who will pay the bill and eventually everyone is contributing.
.....Problem solve?!!
Not exactly....Because now they are arguing about who will get up to place the order.....
..Hmmmm...
I know the feeling :)

And there's a gentleman with the same cup of tea as mine with a Agatha Christie novel. He seems like someone I can smile at....
........................... :)

He smiled back :D

Suppressing my excitement......and taking the last sip.....
 ....I think it's enough for today. 
All those happy faces will get me through the rest of the day....

OneOfTheGroggyDays

There are good days when you like everything and everyone. And there are bad days when you don't even like yourself and realize that you need a good cup of darjeeling tea even if you are sitting in a "coffee" shop.
And the day eventually brightens when you sip on it and feels like you can see the undulating lush green monsoon landscape in front of your eyes, even if you are several kilometers away from it.
It certainly feels like home!

OddAlways

Don't try to fit in when you are meant to stand out in the crowd and be unique. 
The one's who matters won't mind and the one's who mind doesn't matter. 

Tradition has nothing to do with what you wear or how you dress. It is the fact that how one values another person inspite of their difference in opinion. 

The term being traditional has been misused far too long for people to understand that it's not something to show off, but something that should be inside. 

It is better to respect people and be yourself, rather than being politically correct in front and bitch about them at their back. 
It is better to offend someone by your true self than fighting within yourself everytime you face them. 

There's always two options in life. 
The right one and the easy one. 
Choose wisely!

No one is going to stand for your belief. Be your own knight.

Sleepless

Scientific and pseudo scientific communities have given so many reasons when you can't sleep.
Where is one when you need it?!

Mind is a weird place. It does what it's train to do best. What comes easy to it. Rebel and be itself.  
While other parts of you do what they are rationalized to do. 
This tug of war is  calmed by music. For a short period of time. 

Happy sleeping to the other side of the world and Goodmorning to the rest.  :)

MidnightMonsoon

Untiring white noise of the rain over the weekend kept me awake,
The whistling of the winds moving across the trees made me realize that I was not the only one to be wide awake in that ghostly hour. 
If you listen very carefully to the stillness of the night, the silence holds as much chaos as one witnesses on a crowded street.
The monsoon is very head strong this year, it seems that it has something to prove.
Apparently, it is bringing joy and a sense of peace to everyone around, everyone who depends on it; when I looked intently, I saw nothing but a sense of haste to exhaust its vigor so that all can be over soon, and it is relieved of all the expectations that have been put in it.

When the world was enjoying the cozy hug of the slumber, I interacted with the crisp drops for a long time. My phone kept on pinging.
May be someone somewhere had things to share, like me..
Yet unlike me, caffeine was not the reason for doing the same..

I did nothing!
I stared at the drops and felt their desperation to come to an end, on my face
I did nothing!
..and someone rightly said that, sometimes doing nothing can be the hardest thing you can do!
...and I did nothing!

The same balcony which was soaking last night, is sun-kissed today.
The rain had their peace at last. Some seem satisfied while some can never be satisfied, even if you exhaust yourself.....
...but today it's not their turn to worry about...
The blue sky with cotton clouds took over the world today....

GiveToGet

If you know the feeling of not getting,
Give someone who is longing...
If you know the feeling of leaving
Stay for the person who loves you...
If you know hunger
Give someone the happiness of food...
If you know the feeling of unloved
Give love to someone who's worthy....
If you know the feeling of getting abondoned
Pamper someone who looks upto you...
If you didn't find the person you are looking for in your life
Be that person yourself instead...

Life is too short to wait for your turn..
Instead, be there for someone to end their wait....
Everyone is fighting their own battle,
If you couldn't find a safe ground for yourself, 
Be one for someone else.....

I strive to be someone I can be proud of.
I intend to be someone whose memory can calm people and bring smile to their faces rather than making them restless. 
....And the effort will continue till my soul gets tired and give up on me. 
...Hope I can make it on time!

Soul_searching!

More than tiring body parts and chronic diseases, I think people die because their souls get exhausted.
Throughout our lives, we learn to invest our souls through emotions, in people, in work, in expectations.
Not everything turns out the way we plan.
People leave, work gets disrupted, expectations not met....
With every incomplete actions, a part our soul gets worn away.
That wrenching pain inside our chest, is nothing but the wounds of our souls,  experienced when things doesn't go our way.

Still people hope and invest. Smile.

Sitting in a hospital and witnessing pain around pushes one to think how fragile life is.
You will never know when the soul will get tired of trying...and will give up.
Live each day....
..Because you have something, someone else is craving for...
Time!....Use the most of it to build a better version of your life.

রবি ঠাকুরের জন্য (for~Rabindranath Tagore)

আকাশের মুখ ভার। আজ চলে গেছিলে তুমি নিজের ভিতরের সব টুকু দিয়ে।
যা দিয়ে গেলে তাই দিয়ে এখনো বছর ঘোরে আমাদের। আজও তোমার লেখা দিয়েই নিজের না বলা কথা গুলো সবার সামনে আনি।

যা দিয়ে গেলে তার যে শেষ নেই।

বাইশে শ্রাবণ

তমার জন্য
