How far would you go?

 How far would you go to get something you always wanted?
Have you ever been so blinded by your desires that you fail to see what it will turn you into? 

If only I could speak..

I wish there was no language barrier so I could tell you that I really didn’t know my nails hurt you or that I was biting too hard. I am sorry my bark startled you, I just wanted to play. I cant say “food please” when I am hungry and so I had to follow you and tug you. Also, it was just this bad tummy bug that made me growl because it was hurting so much. If only I could tell you in words , “ It’s paining.”

I followed you through the gates because I couldn’t find my family and I was scared to be alone. I had just lost my sibling to another speeding car. I understand you can’t take each one of us in, your allergies could bother you or we make your family uncomfortable, that’s ok. I will find shelter in that old garage or maybe just this huge tree tonight and there should be food in the black bag you keep around, but please don’t shoo me away. 

I promise to guard and protect you until my last breath, I will even chase the mice and the giant lizard that scares you. I promise to let you know of stranger danger too, just let me be around. 

You can be mad at me, I will still snuggle up next to you. You can be your true self with me, I will never judge. If only I could speak , I would tell you all I need is for you to smile. I don’t demand fancy toys, expensive beds or royal meals, but can you just pet me a little or play? 

Please tell your two legged friends to not hate us, we mean no harm. It’s one pretty world if we coexist, you will see we need no words to communicate. 

I wag my tail and offer my paw to all your friends who feed us come rain or shine, some take us home too. Thankyou for being with us in sickness and in health. Thankyou for communicating on our behalf. 

A request from one kind soul to another, they have been working too hard but can’t always keep up, since we are so many. Please leave a message on this post if you can help in anyway too.

Love,

Four legged community..

A New Beginning

It was the end of a journey or the start of a new one?

---

She didn’t know and neither was there a way she could be certain. A thousand questions unanswered and many more seeking answers. With each passing day, she felt trapped and guilty, thinking she were the reason for it all.

Until, the pattern became evident and the mask wore off. She could finally see him for who he truly was and the world for what is. A relief, she was not to be blamed after all, for some things are just not meant to be.

A prisoner of her own emotions, only she could set her self free. Blinded by duties and responsibilities, and the fear of being judged and tagged, she hoped for it all to fall in place. Little did she realise there’s only so much she could do before losing herself. 

It was the tears on her pillow and staring aimlessly for hours at the empty walls that told her it’s now or never.

And that’s how..

A new chapter began….

A thought..

She thought he was her world,

never did she knew the dark side of him

sugar coated ever word

honey battered every action

And there she was, caught in a web of lies

Being blind to it all, 

Love was all she could see and believe

"It's just a phase", the constant thought

"Ups and downs are part of life", that's what she was taught

She thought she is strong,

could fight the world if need be

Yet, never did she know

This is where she would lose it all...

Dear Comrade,

 A strong belief I had, never again to take that road.

The journey would be beautiful, I knew.

It's Time..

 Life keeps on changing. People around you change, the environment you want is what you can't always have. We often grow up with a mindset, come what may, certain things will never change. Things that sets up apart as an individual, things that define who we truly are. 

Then...comes the time that brings out a new you, the side that you never knew existed. A constant battle of acceptance of who you are now. 

For over 20 years, a girl is brought up in an environment that never prepares her for what's about to come when it's time for her to leave that comfort zone. She isn't taught how to be or what to be when one day she wakes up in a house never known to her before, around people unknown. Yes, at a certain age, she starts getting the pep talk of how she has to get married one day and her partner will be her companion for good and for worse. Although, they forget to mentally prepare us about how hard it is going to be to let go of your father's hand, how difficult it will be to not have him at your back and end. They forget to tell us how hard it will be not to be able to cry on his shoulder, to hug him when you are happy/sad. The worst thing they forget to prepare us for not being able to see him around constantly. 

Changes are good, we get to progress in life. Yet, its the phase of accepting the changes that makes or breaks a person. 

Always a maybe.

We often get stuck in dilemmas. The choice isn't always between the right and the wrong, more often than we know its about picking the lesser wrong/ right.💭

YOU.

To all the hopeless romantics out there..

You are the reason for all the strength I have gathered yet you are my biggest weakness.

Rise to Love.

Is it really necessary to give people a taste of their own medicine? 

Criticized by all, yet lived to rise above her own expectations of being a better version of herself. 

Words Matter..

Society tags people as good or bad. Any of you ever took a second to think that the person was not born bad, maybe she just learnt things the hard way, maybe somebody never told her about the societal norms of acceptance, maybe she had no one to correct her when she made bad choices. Yet, today she has the world to criticize her choices.

My encounter with an Honey Badger

No he was not the mammal honey badger. 
More realistic, His actions spoke for him.He never cared and he never will yet I believe someday he will. My faith in him blinds me of the reality. His words sound more truthful than what they are. Even when he speaks his mind for real and spells it out for me "I couldn't care less if you don't talk", I choose to believe otherwise.

Oh such a Liar..

                                        "Lying is bad." 

That's what they preach to inculcate good values since childhood. Yet, every now and then, child or adult, small or big lies, they all say it. I don't disagree to this preaching however, no one said a word about white-lies. On the other hand, we are taught to come up with such lies. White-lies are harmless they say.

Black is Beautiful.

In the same vein of the title, I would say "Different is Beautiful".

Our society isn't very delighted to accept those who are a little different.

A girl with specs.

Standing amidst the road not knowing her way around the unknown city, strangers all around, the girl with her spectacles on reached out for a helping kind hand. She found none.

Relationship? Rate Importance.

Does every relationship count?

When we look back, we find that we have had encounters with thousands of people, who have not made it to our present. Most have been passing relationships. Perhaps we interacted with them for a while, but they did not contribute in any way to the real purpose of our lives. Hence, they came and they went without causing so much as a ripple.

Sushant Divgikar - Interview.

                                   

Yaaaayieeee!! I finally managed to interview the diva Sushant Divgikar in the heart of wee hours and he politely answered all the questions I have been waiting to ask him for a while now.

My Bucket List

                                 

I always had ideas floating around in my head but never really wrote them down. The idea of a bucket list may seem morbid and silly to some, ideas may be laughable to some, but who cares?

Falling in love...

Falling in love is such an easy thing to do, but staying is hard. 

Falling head over heels for someone is so easy. Pay attention to the glitter in them and there infatuation will also feel like love to you.

Words of the darker side of the society

"Prostitution still is not legal. I don't think there will be lot lost by considering the ordinance void." - Susan Burke.

This is the day where I get disappointed by the fact that there's only so much you could do as a person. But then at least a few eyes will be opened by this post.

Treat love?

       Every-thing is fair in love and war!
The common societal notion says love is blind. If a simple girl marries a criminal, they say love is blind. When people from two different communities or castes or classes for that matter want to be with each other , they say love is blind.
