Greetings


It's that time of the year again. The cycle of 365 days got over and a new cycle started.
Happy new Year to everyone reading and also to those not reading.
For some this year will bring opportunities and successes, planning ahead in their lives and how to reach new goals again make fresh resolutions or renew the previous ones and for some....well some are just glad they could make this far.

The year 2016 was very important to me for a variety of reasons. No...I didn't accomplish any university degree like the previous one but the education was not the bookish one this year.
Being able to stand for myself and being able to speak for myself and face the core problems or obstacles in my life was a major inner achievement. However I have a long road to go on that sphere but this year was a start to that journey.
This year gave me an insight on some people whom I dearly held close and also brought me close to people who I felt were mere strangers!

Sometimes growing up makes me sad, to see and understand how complex human emotions could be and how much intricately they are bound with each other and yet they fight. It was much simpler when we were children.

Some say its better to forgive who did wrong to you. Forgiving makes the heart bigger and lighter. It brings a sense of peculiar peace in the inner soul. I am not a forgiving person. I am still unable to be one. However I am a "forgetting" person. I can't forgive you for what you did to me. But I can surely forget what you did to me. I can- no more think of the things and lock the memories far away in the memory chamber and never unlock it again.
Does that make my heart heavier or smaller?
Well, I don't think so cause it beats the same!

No, I don't have any grievances or any regrets. I am blessed with amazing parents and the most entertaining and mischievous sibling. I still have a small group of friends however the number have increased and they are the most supporting people I have known. I have meet some great personalities and I will adore them for the rest of my life. Some experiences have taught me great deal this year and some experiences made me wiser!

I hope the events in this new year makes my life simpler in the coming years!

A very Happy New year to all or a New Year that brings happiness to all.

    What is meant to happen will happen. That's just Murphy's law. On a second thought, you should write more often.

Constant Change

Do you really get what you want? Or do you get what you deserve? The faith in you to reach there The finishing line, can you ever touch? The race gets to you at some point  And you start running in circles to catch the feather hanging at an arm's distance But don't you know, that chord is attached to you? The faster you run yet you cannot reach it and still run in circles! Look around you, all the moving wheels and the circles round and about  around you....rotating and changing Change is the only constant they say but what is the change? our body shapes our habits our environment our feelings our hormones our movements our ideas our ideologies our goals our love US? You? Yes you, the one reading this.....and also writing this You have also changed You are no more the same, from the one ten years back you don't care about the world, and don't wear makeup to hide the scar of that fall  you don't care about others' validation and don't wear to impress but to u...

My City

Kolkata on postcard Kolkata Postcards photographs by Nemai Ghosh published by Starmark True to its title, the City of Joy as coined by the French author Dominique Lapierre, knows how to celebrate every victory, every win, even daily life. All my years in this city, it has taught me to LLC (Love, Live and Care).  There was a time when I wanted to leave. All my friends used to keep complaining about the faults of this city and they still do. Giving the idea that all this city did was to make you knock door for work and yet no opportunity came knocking on the door. I was influenced and I also wanted to leave.  On such an odd tiring day, after coming back home, my grandfather called me in his study. As I entered, the whole room was spread with the prints of photographs of his City taken by him. As I carefully positioned my stepping through the room, I fell in love with his City. So much known yet so unknown.  Later his idea got transformed into the 'Kolkata' Coffee Table Book...

Wake Up

Wake up. Its early in the morning. I can see the sky through the bedroom window, changing colours. So many colours blended together so well. The darkness of the night is slowly turning into the brightness of the day. The silence of the night I can hear no more, are the birds waking up? or are they chirping to wake us up? The earth smells fresh The air feels fresh so I should freshen up and get ready for the day. Sipping on my green tea trying to recollect what unfinished work I had yesterday, I suddenly recollected my last night's dream. Dream of being big. Dream of achieving all my wishes one day. Dream of getting real. Dream that always brings a smile to my face. Dreams shouldn't be shared,everyone says, they don't come true then! So I kept the dream to myself. The day went on in its own pace. Every turn I take hitting hard on the dream I dreamt. Pushing me back into the reality of life, getting their joys from hammering on my dream. The ...
