A nostalgic moment

It's a laid back Sunday morning. I look at my phone and the time shows 11 a.m. I open my laptop thinking of spending my good time watching some web series. The search engine opens and with that my mind changes within a fraction of second. Then I turn to YouTube and the home page opens up and my eyes fall on the right side where it's written Akbar Birbal stories and something like that. 

That takes me back to the time when I was a child and I would love reading stories related to Akbar Birbal during summer break. I would exhaust my eyes until my stomach felt like bursting up as I would laugh and enjoy all the stories along the way. It was such a beautiful time. I wish now, I could rewind all the memories attached to it. 



The best part about these stories were, you could learn a great deal from them. Every story would have a moral at the end that would make you learn something from it. Interestingly, all the stories were about how local people or anyone respectable would show up with their own problems at Akbar's court and how Birbal, unfailingly impressed the royal emperor with his solutions. Those were the stories that could help you in a lot of ways, especially dealing with reality in the workplace or any area of your life.

Unfortunately, as I came back from my nostalgic moment, I realized that I no more had the book which I would lovingly keep it on my desk table. The book is lost, however, I could cherish some stories through the video.

Unfailing Outlook

While you have dreams in your vision to fulfill them,you also see on the other hand how people are living their life. The kind of life you too are dreaming at the moment. Someone's a doctor, musician, singer, astronaut, engineer, architect etc.Perhaps every individual lives up to their dreams as without dreams reality hits us hard.   To live your dream you need to have an ambition,an aim,strength to resist trials and tribulations,undivided focus and hard work.  And all this comes with a cost - Time! Time which keeps ticking at every mini second Time that doesn't stop Time which is the present Time that guides you to make or break your life. Like the wrist watch on your hand completes your style,the same way the time is a constant reminder to you to walk on the pedestal or you'll get hit by a car. But at times,we fail,we feel let down due to circumstances and sometimes hard luck. Whatever the issue of concern may be but it's really important to ha...

When did I say you were fooling around" I chuckled The innocent look on his face made me laugh harder.I couldn't resist that moment and pulled his cheeks.He was taken aback by my sudden response. "What are you doing? It hurts!" He said " Is it so ? Then forget it, from now on wards I 'll never pull your cheeks" I mocked "Hey!

I knew he was about to speak something urgent. "Jokes apart" "Naina,their is something I want you to know" he prompt...

The Idyllic Love

Everyone in today's world is searching for their partner who is supposedly meant to be there in their lives forever. Well, don't you think it is? Somewhere, Sometimes we all are inclined to think that yes, maybe our soulmate is out there somewhere waiting for us. And why shouldn't we think as it pleases our mind? This "Idyllic love" or the ideal love we are in the hunt for makes us crazy to an extent that either we go to depression or question the thought itself.  Questions which we introspect on, "Does true love really exist ?" "Do fairy tale love exist?" "Will I ever find my soulmate?" "What if I never find one?" "What if I remain single?" "what if I never get married?" "Am I living in an illusion?" "look at that couple how madly in love they are and still going strong and look at me I couldn't find one for myself!" Dude, Relax! You'll find one! Soon...
