Celebrate today and enjoy today

जो बीत गया पल वो गुज़रा हुआ कल है 
जो आज है ,अभी है ,वो ही जीवन का सच है ।

क्यूँ याद कर गुज़रे पलों को
तिल तिल मरते हो
यूँ ही अंदर अंदर तुम जलते हो
कल की बात है पुरानी
आज लिखो एक नई कहानी
आज , एक नया कलेवर , एक नई रवानी ।

क्यूँ बेकार ही कोशिश करते हो
गुज़रा वक़्त बदलने की
याद कर पुरानी बातों को
नम अपनी आंखे करते हो
कल के दर्द भरे ज़ख्मों पर
आज का मरहम लगाओ
आज, एक नया जशन ,नई लहर ।

क्यूँ कल की आग मे
आज का पल स्वाहा करते हो
कल के सवालों को
आज के जवाबों मे खोजते हो
कल का पाठ अब कहाँ काम आना है
आज, एक नया प्रशन ,एक नई मिसाल ।

क्यूँ वक़्त बे वक़्त कल का राग अलापते हो
फ़िर उसमे ही खो जाते हो
लाख जतन कर भी
कुछ ना बदल पाते हो
मन तुम्हारा बीते कल पर खामख़ा ठहरा है
आज गाओ एक नया ताराना
आज ,एक नया गीत,एक नई ताल ।

जो हुआ वो अच्छा हुआ
जो होगा वो और भी अच्छा होगा
लेकिन जो आज है,इस पल है ,वो सबसे अच्छा है
बीता कल काली रात का साया है
आज एक नया सवेरा लाया है
जहाँ नई उमँगों का डेरा है
बाकी सब वक़्त का फेरा है ।

जो बीत गया पल वो गुज़रा हुआ कल है
जो आज है ,अभी है ,वो ही एकमात्र सच है ।।

JUG of my LIFE..MY LIFELINE😊

MY JUG😊😘

Friends are the family we get to choose.And you are lucky if you have one
such friend in your life who is family to you and means World to you.True
friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils,adds the happiness
and subtracts the sorrows from our life.Friendship is a bond that goes beyond
mere give-and-take.Friendship is an overlapping of Life.

"A single rose can be my garden... a single friend,my world..."

This quote probably says all that I want to express about my JUG.
Some people come into our lives and barely leave a trace,others leave a string of footprints
etched upon our hearts,letting us know that they are with us every step we take.
I don't know how and from where to start it but yes one person whose
picture flashed up immediately into my mind after I read about the post
to blog about 'YOUR JUG' is Diksha. My best friend since childhood or I should
better say my soulmate in disguise.I mean who says Love is the business of
lovers only, a special friend can be a worth more than a lover.It is often
said 'Relations are made in Heaven and executed on Earth.' And our friendship
is one such relation in my life that is definitely made in Heaven and executed by us
here on Earth.The 'Made for Each Other Jodi.'

I don't who are to be called as friends?How they look like? What characterstics a friend should possess? Or probably What is the meaning of friend and friendship?But one thing which I know very clearly is A friend should be like Diksha and her qualities should be set as the standards of friendship and all those who claim to be a friend should idealize her.
So For me,Diksha is the answer to all these questions.She is the meaning of friend and friendship for me.She is the definition of 'FRIEND' to me😊
A friend in all my needs and deeds.A friend who knows me inside and out,yet associates with me anyway.A friend whom I share all my secrets with.A friend who is partner in all my crimes.A friend who laughs with me in my happiness.A friend who cries double with me in my sorrows.A friend who offers me a shoulder to lean upon and shed my tears when I am upset.A friend who sticks through thick and thin.A friend who understands me better than me.A friend who knows me even better.A friend with whom even silence seems meaningful and comfortable.A friend who prays for my success.A friend who motivates during failures.A friend who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.A friend who patiently bears up with all my drama.A friends to listens all my pointless talks and cribs.A friends who strengthens me during tough times.A friend who embarrasses me and laughs out crazily.A friend who favourite job is pulling my leg.A friend who teases me on my crushes.A friend who does not utters a single word when I freak upon her.A friend who found me perfect with all my flaws.A friend who resides in my heart and is familiar to every emotions present there.A friend who is my world.A friend I love to the moon and back.
That friend is YOU,Diksha.

For a moment I have so much to say and the other moment I fall short of words as how to express what you and this bond of ours means to me.Sometimes words fail to express the height of emotions leaving you speechless.I faced it many times while writing this post.
I am happy that our bond of friendship has become 9 years happier and older now.I am taken back to our school days where I met you and our friendship was born and gradually bloomed into the best relationships of our lives.A place where Shivani and Diksha became synonyms.Remember,We only required a seat in the corner and each other's company and thats all.Every other activity taking place in background didn't attract us.We were often found lost in our endless and probably all useless talks leaving every one around us wondering and surprised as to how much and what do we talk about all the time.
Our teacher's used to call us SANTA and BANTA and DEVIS etc.HA HA HA HA:-D 😂Perhaps every guy who had crushes on us felt jealous.:-P But we were stubborn
we only and only wanted and enjoyed each other's sweet company.Nothing else seemed more important and precious to us.I am so happy that from then to now from school to college to workplaces things have changed,circumstances differ,surroundings are changed but on thing that remain unchanged is our friendship,our love for each other and so does our attraction.Even today a corner allures us and we cherish sitting in each others company just like before.
Everything between us is so much similar.From being toppers to possessing same handwriting. From being Salman Khan fans to gol-gappa lovers.From being lover of nature to being philosophical.
From being big dreamers to being achievers.From being simple to being emotional.No wonder people are left amazed when they get to know about us and our friendship.One thing I would like to share Do you all know Our Parents tease us and they really asked us if we would like to marry each other. HAHAHAHAHA!!!😂No match could be any better than this one.Yes, they did.And if I had liked girls in this context,Diksha I would have married you. HEHEHEHEHE 😂But hardluck I can't.
You stood by me whenever I was weak.You were there by my side when I met that accident two years ago.You supported me through this tough phase of life.You strengthened me and made me believe that I can come out of it and everything's gonna be okay. You probably passed each and every examinations that crossed our way of friendship in this life and that to with flying colours.

We have walked so far,laughed so hard and cried a sea of tears together.We have climbed each other's highest peaks,and travelled through the darkest of valleys.
You raised me up when life had beat me to the ground.Together we are stronger,braver and happier.Thank you for being a true friend.Thank you for making me understand what a real friend is all about.Thank you for always sticking by me.Thank you for letting my heart pour out.Thank you for not judging me in any of the situations.My life wouldn't be  the same without you.
With you by my side the world is a better place.The sun shines a little brighter,my smile grows a little bit wider,my problems seems smaller with your support.
You are the most beautiful person on this Earth I have ever met.You are selfless,compassionate and women with a golden heart.I could not thank God enough for bestowing
my life with your company,for bringing you into my life.I can't be any luckier than this.Now I don't to how to end this post or probably I don't want to stop.I want tosing this melody of your goodness endlessly.:-)But one thing I want to say to you is 'Thank you for Staying Constant in a world that changes every single second.

तेरे जैसा यार कहां..
कहां ऐसा याराना..
याद करेगी दुनिया तेरा मेरा अफसाना..😉😊

In the end,I thank Blog Adda and Dear Zindagi Contest from the bottom of my heart for giving me this opportunity to write a blog on "MY JUG" and allowing me to share the true essence of our friendship.You gave me a platform to present my gratitude to "My Jug"
This is perhaps the best feeling that I experience in my blogging journey.

“I am writing about Jug in my life for the #DearZindagi activity at BlogAdda“.

थोड़ा धीर तुम रखना

थोड़ा धीर तुम रखना
बस चलते जाना
ये रास्ते ही तुमको मंज़िल तक ले जायेंगें
बस तुम थक मत जाना ।

तो क्या हुआ अगर तुम लड़खड़ा गए
हिम्मत ना हारना
जो कहीं डगमगा गए
याद रखना
गिरना एक आम बात है
गिर कर उठना ही तुम्हारी पेहचान है
मत घबराना
बस थोड़ा धीर तुम रखना
और चलते जाना ।

सफलता की राह कठिन ही सही
पर तुम्हारे प्रयास भी कम तो नही
बस थोड़ा धीर तुम रखना
निरंतर प्रयास करते जाना ।

अंधकार में इतना दम कहाँ
तुम्हारे इरादों का तेज हो जहाँ
असफलता कितनी देर ठहरेगी वहाँ
बस थोड़ा धीर तुम रखना
इरादा मज़बूत रखना ।

हौसलें बुलंद जो है तुम्हारे
सफलता एक दिन कदम चुमेगी प्यारे
बस थोड़ा सा धीर तुम रखना
हौंसला बनाये रखना ।

मन जो दृढ़ है तुम्हारा
चमकेगा एक दिन तेरा भी सीतारा
संघर्ष जीत का हिस्सा  है
हार तो सिर्फ एक छोटा सा किस्सा है
बस थोड़ा सा धीर तुम रखना
संघर्ष से ना डरना ।


एक दिन ऐसी सुबह आयेगी
सार्थक सब प्रयास कर जायेगी
तुम्हारी सुनेहरी जीत की किरणें
चारों ओर बिख़र जायेगी
बस तुम थोड़ा धीर रखना
और चलते जाना ।।


My first ever blog in Hindi and what can be better  than a short, positive poem.
Please drop by.Encouragement needed!:-)

Diwali with a difference

Diwali has arrived.Diwali,the festival of lights,is the much anticipated festival of the year.This is the day on which everything around us gets brighten up with  colourful lights marking
the symbolic welcome of the light of new hope,prosperity and happiness
into our lives.Be it the houses,the streets,the city,the country each and everything  bathes with the shimmers and glimmers.

Diwali,gets its name from diyas.The diyas are the symbol of the new light,
new energy of hope and prosperity in our lives.The flame of the diya,
or the lamp,reminds us that light will ultimately triumph over darkness.
Diwali is all about Weeks of preparation, the fun of
decoration, the excitement of exchanging presents & sweets and finally doing Pooja,bursting crackers.I mean its more about pomp and show.We focus on spending too much on materialistic sources of happiness.It seems showcasing the wealth,spending unneccesary and celebrating the festival with worldly items is all of ours propaganda.

So what are you doing this diwali?Anything special?Anything different?Are you just going to wake up and wait till the sun sets and bring out the big box full of crackers and then light the fireworks and enjoy?Are you just planning to relish the food that your mother cooks for you on the occasion of Diwali?Lets make a difference this Diwali and celebrate this day DIL SE..Lets begin the celebration of life, its enjoyment, its goodness and sharing the same with one and
 all.
So this Diwali lets change a bit
and go by the real meaning of
the festival, let’s brighten up some
lives and illuminate faces with brilliant acts of sharing and kindness.Experience the Joy ofGIVING,SHARING,CARING on this Day..

I want to make a difference this diwali.We light up hundreds up diyas and lamps in our houses to devour the misery out of the house and welcome the  happiness.Lets light up a diya of love,compassion and sharing in our hearts for those thousands of under-priviledged people who don't celebrate Diwali with all pomp and grandeur as we do.There are thousands of people whose day of Diwali is no different than an ordinary day.Their lives are chained in povery, misery, lonliness and illness.Why not help them to light up some diyas of happiness and
togetherness in their lives.Lets share our lights with the less-privileged people and bring a smile on their faces.A bit of charity amidst merriment.

Lets redefine lights,noise and flavour this diwali with 

Sparks of BEAUTY

Instead of the sparks of crackers and fireworks,let your inner beauty sparkle

this time.Be beautiful at heart.Lets get out of our homes and reach out to the

people who live in shelter homes,slums,old age homes, orphanages or the beggars on the streets and offer them some gifts and presents or do anything that makes

a difference to their diwali.

Explosion of FLAVOURS

This time there should be explosion of flavours.Flavours of joy and sharing.

Reaching out to people who are alone or suffering from illness or living in

povery and adding flavours of togetherness,help and care in their lives through our small steps and a little charity.Offer them sweets and sweeten their lives with flavour of compassion.

Burst of COLOURS

Bursting crackers isn't a good idea this Diwali.Let there be burst of colours

of merry-making and joy by spreading colours of giving,colours of sharing,colours of love,

colours of caring all around you.Donating money instead of spending it on crackers which eventually lead to sound and air pollution,sharing the food made in your house with the less-privileged

Resonance of LAUGHTER

Laugh and make others laugh with you.No more echos of noisy patakas, let the lauhgter and jolliness resonate in each and everyone's life.

Make someone smile.While we spend thousands of rupees on crackers, there are children in the same city as we live whocannot even buy a candle which costs nothing more than Rs. 5/- 

How about you go and help the poor section of the society? One person cannot make a difference but still, we can just make a few people smile on the occasion of Diwali. Can’t we?

Spend some times with people who are in need celebrate your diwali and make them laugh a little more.

I would say your little deeds and efforts could bring a big difference to 

someomes's Diwali this time.So don't hesitate and inspite of the fumes of

fireworks in the air let there be the fumes of charity in the air.Lets do our

bits. It does not matter if you cannot touch the lives of many on that one day, but let us do something to touch the life of one person through the year, to make him or her a little more  happy. 

It may be like a drop in the ocean but is’nt the ocean made up of a lot of drops?

Wishing you all a very HAPPY,SAFE & PROSPEROUS DEEPAVALI..

" TRUST "

Trust
a pristine soul
never returns,once gone.

Trust
a myriad emotion
years to build,
only a fraction to break.

Trust
a priceless present
yet so expensive,
no wealth isn't enough to buy it.

Trust
a boat of strength
helps you sail through the toughest
and stand the roughest.

Trust
a bird of desire
flies you to the moon
and sings a melodious tune.

Trust
a light of faith
keeps you gleaming
even in the darkest hour.

but remember

Everyone can be trusted with something
but No one can be trusted with everything..
