Make it a happy ending...
 |
| The Leela's Beach, Goa |
Doesn't matter whether good or bad, everything that has a start will have to have an end. Key is to cherish it when it's good and learn when it's not that pleasant. Even the mighty sun has to set at the end of the day. But as they say, every end is a new beginning, so don't stop, not now, not here, you got a lot to do.
"Aayu, what happened? Looks like you are lost somewhere." asked my mom, entering the circle of my thoughts. Yes I went to Goa with my family, you can make fun of it, but trust me that was awesome.
"Nothing mom, just thinking, how lovely this trip is, and why this has to end? I guess good thing ends pretty soon."
"Not just good thing sweetie, the bad ends as well."
I gave her a puzzled look.
"Try to remember every important event since your childhood. Do you find everything pleasing?"
I thought for a while and said "No maa."
"But it ended, right?"
I smiled in a nod. "So maa, when one day, when this life will end, will people remember me?"
"Aayu, just stay focused on your good work and leave the rest to Him." She kissed my forehead and left me again with my thoughts. I spend few more minutes at the beach and then came back to the resort.
Now when I look at this picture, I don't just see myself indulged deep in thoughts but I try to perceive the message I understood then. I see the ocean, the mighty ocean, who must be very proud of it's power, that God has bestowed it with. Strong enough to sink anything that goes against it's current, yet gentle enough to give shelter to millions of species in it's heart. May be someday even this vast ocean will end, till then it's continuously doing it's job. So does everything else. The wind, the water, the trees, everyone. Do they expect anything in return? They don't have an actual heart yet doing everything with full of heart. Then why do we humans always expects something in return all the time. Why can't be follow the most valuable lesson that our holy book has taught, "karma karo fal ki chinta mat kro".
Like the ocean, nature has given power to all of us, it could be your ability to make someone smile or to create a huge change in someone's life. But most of us are so busy in our own miseries that we are absolutely blind to others'.
This is one of my favourite quote, "The life that you are living now, is also a dream of millions" and it's completely true. This picture urges me to get up and face whatever is standing in between me and my dreams, which is to bring a change, a better change. If I'll be able to make a single life better, I'll happily say, I have done my job. Cause when it will end one day, I'll make sure it's a happy ending. :)

एक अन्तरावलोकन...!
हर वो घटना जो एक नारी के सम्मान को ठेस पहुंचती है, पूरे देश में आक्रोश और बदलाव की मांग, की एक लहर उठा देती है | हम धरने करते हैं, नारे लगते हैं, सरकार से सख़्त कानूनों की मांग करते हैं, सरकारें एक दुसरे पर दोषारोपण करती हैं, कुछ झूठे वादे किये जाते हैं, और क्यूंकि यह इक्कीसवीं सदी है तो इन सब के साथ-साथ अपने बेटों को और बेहतर इंसान बनाने की बातें करते हैं | पर क्या इतने वर्षों में हम यह सीख पाए हैं कि अपनी बेटियों की परवरिश कैसे करें ? क्या बचपन में हमने अपनी बेटियों की यह सिखाया गया था कि कोई गलत तरह से छुए तो चिल्ला-चिल्ला कर सकबो बताना है ? या फिर यह कि बस चुप-चाप उसे भूल जाना है ? उससे इस बारे में कभी कोई बात करी या नहीं ? पर बात तो हमसे भी किसी ने नहीं करी, हम भी तो भूलना सीख गए | हाँ बात ना करना ही बेहतर है, वरना अजीब हो जायेगा ना थोड़ा ? विदाई के वक़्त आज भी लड़की को यही बोलते हैं क्या के आज से ससुराल ही तेरा घर है ? क्या अपने अपनी बेटी को ये बोला था कि आज से तेरे दो घर हैं ? है ना दो घर ? अच्छा ये सब ना सही पर शादी के बाद उसकी गलती ना होने पर भी उसे झुक जाने को तो नहीं बोला
कुछ सुनाई दिया?
सुनो ! ज़रा गौर से सुनो कुछ सुनाई दिया? कुछ कहना है इन्हे कुछ बातें बतानी हैं ज़्यादा नहीं, बस एक आधा कहानी सुननी हैं इसलिए सुनो ! ज़रा गौर से सुनो कुछ सुनाई दिया? सिर्फ पथ्थरों से टकराने या रेट में मिल जाने इन्होने समंदर नहीं लांघा खुद में ना जाने कितने किस्से समेटे बचते बचाते छुपते छुपाते ये तुम तक आई हैं इसलिए सुनो ! ज़रा गौर से सुनो कुछ सुनाई दिया? कुछ आंसू घुले हैं इनमे कुछ फुर्सत के पल हर कहानी अलग है हर लहर में अगल हलचल ये किस्से उस पार के हैं किसी दूर देश के मालूम नहीं वहां किसी ने इन्हे सुना या नहीं इसलिए सुनो ! ज़रा गौर से सुनो कुछ सुनाई दिया? क्षितिज़ के उस पार भी इन लहरों को कोई सुनता होगा या इनमे छुपी कहानियां समझने की कोशिश तो करता होगा वैसे दुनिया के दो छोर इतने भी अलग नहीं वही कुछ आंसू यहाँ भी हैं वही कुछ फुर्सत के पल इसलिए सुनो ! ज़रा गौर से सुनो कुछ सुनाई दिया? जो किसी दिन इन्हे समझ जाओ उस परदेश के किस्से सुन पाओ तो पल दो पल जोड़कर एक शाम यहाँ बैठ जाना एक छोटी सी लहर चुपके से तुम्हारी थकान मिटा देगी और ये छप छप की आवाज़ दिल
Why Coherent Rambling...huh?
After eight long years since I started this blog in 2012, a pal called to inform me that my blog was the first result when she googled " coherent rambling. " I should be thrilled, correct? Well, it didn't surprise me. There's only my blog named with these words. I already knew it's unique (considerably). I created it. Allow me to explain why. In 2012, this blog had a different name, which I'm not going to tell. Cause I was in college, I didn't put much thought into it and opted for two words I heard most. Still not telling you. Then one day, I can't recall the day or even the year, my conscience rose and laughed at me for naming the blog so naively. Yeah, still not telling. Anyways, I sat down to find a new name. But how? or where? or what should I look? Those days I was reading a lot and was fascinated with oxymorons. They sound morons but are clever and amusing. Oxymorons are the group of contradicting or opposite words used together. Like Open sec
I loved the depth of this post and the mention of transience of life. Thank you for reflecting Ayushi!
