Skepticism is good. In order to know the answer , you need to question. Our sages in the Vedic period were great skeptic and so they spend their lifetime in search of knowledge, light or truth and achieved a lot. That is how we got our country’s name Bharat ( India) in hindi meaning- the […]

Positives of 2020

Well, for most of us year 2020 is the worst year of our lives and I can’t agree more with them .
We saw so many of them lost their loved ones because of this deadly pandemic and many dreams shattered with the crumbling economy around the world. 2020 brought tears of loss more than happiness.
But we humans are very hopeful creatures. We can be very greedy too but we can never stop ourselves from being hopeful even the world is going to end tomorrow. We can hold onto little moments of joy when we are with family and friends and simply love to get lost in those tiny moments.
And yes, we got hell lot of time with our families this year, thanks to lockdown.
We focused on cooking food, washing utensils, cleaning our houses more than making our bosses happy in the professional environment. At the same time the nature which had been exploited by us got time to heal to some extent.
Well we have to do more in order to heal this planet .Our vulnerability this year became a golden moment for nature to heal. Our loss became mother Earth’s gain. So are we the villains on this planet ? Well, it depends on us, how much we care for others, how much we care for our planet !
Year 2020 stopped us , made us to think of our actions, taught us a lesson and gave us an opportunity to correct ourselves. There is life out there in the wild , the real life we should look for , the life beyond money, power and greed ! There, truly our happiness lies.
Happiness is real when shared. Let’s share our happiness with nature by protecting it, preserving it and helping it to grow with us !
A Glimpse of Hope

Standing on the edge
Witnessing grief, frustration
Then a glimpse of Hope!

Burning Embers

Towering inferno
Encapsulated the bushes
The world became red
From the blazing fire
The bushes choked
With the suffocating smoke
Creatures charred
And animals screamed
Man, It’s all your greed
Grief of nature
Will never be silenced
So here we are
Facing the revenge
Wrath of the dead
Anger of the bushes
It’s weapon is Corona
And the man
Is running for cover
Mother nature had enough to retaliate. Recently we witnessed bushfires in Australia that killed so many animals and creatures that horrified so many of us.
It’s all because of us, Global warming is our deed that is resulting in such disasters. But mother nature is not weak, it has It’s own mechanism to teach us a lesson. We are now facing Corona Virus pandemic, wrath of nature.
I hope we all recover from this and also learn from our mistakes. This should open our eyes and change our attitude towards mother nature.
Our fight is on, stay safe people!
The Diary of an old man
Got wet in the Mist of time
The pages became yellow
Flipping through the phases of life
All Soaked in emotions
Love, Loss and Passion

Darkness blinds the good
Darkness enhances the light

Being Pessimistic

Years of failure
No reward to show
Hopelessness rules it all
There’s no chance to grow
Pessimist believe
The world is nasty
Either you are condemned
Or you fail to understand
Pessimism might save you
By taking precautions
But it might hinder
The growth you want often.
The world wants both
Pessimists and optimists
As the world desires
Growth with some precautions

Alive

Never dig into
Your old wounds
Might hurt you more
As if you are doomed
Past is just
An unimportant reserve
Cherish the good ones
Ignore what you never deserved
Fears and failures
Can cripple your life
Live every moment
Tomorrow you may not be alive

What is Patriotism?
Patriotism is the devotion
Of the soldier in the front
Patriotism is the integrity
Of the citizens upfront.
Patriotism seeps through
An honest hardworking man
Patriotism is the respect
For every human
Patriotism is the devotion
Towards your people and nation
Patriotism unites generation
It is the fight against discrimination
A beautiful day in the woods

Drenched in the dirt
Of corrupted society
Suffocated in the smoke
Of polluted city
I longed nothing but
To get out of my anxiety
Far away in the mountains
I walked with the river
Swam with the icy breeze
Felt my life, my sunrise
With the sun shining
Through the misty pines
And snowy peaks.
