I still remember....

"I still remember...
Sitting with mom in kitchen to have those sweets,acting like a good boy..
Going out with dad , just coz I wanted a new toy..

I still remember...
hiding myself under the table, to bunk the school..
my stupid face when school friends made me a fool...

I still remember...
studying really hard when there is exam on the very next day...
feeling proud when I first made god out of the clay...

I still remember...
Hanging out with friends late night...
my foul attempts to please dad after coming home with a bad fight...

I still remember...
when I first saw her with that sudden wave going through my mind...
When we first kissed, making the world around us momentarily blind...

I still remember...
On airport,my mom with her smile and hiding those tears..
her happy voice on the phone, saying "Son,you always are in my prayers"..

I still remember...
meeting an unknown person with a big questionmark...
and then that feel of relief thinking "There is light,it's not always dark"....

I still remember..
each and everything, its just that time is going so fast....
the place and people will be forgotten, but the moments created...they will everlast..."

Connect...it...


I have to admit it...I have been thinking about this topic for a long time now..but never had guts to write on it..now that my dear friend has suggested me to write on it..I m finally penning down my take on Relationships...


I know it doesn't sound that dangerous as it is in reality. When I look at it...I see all kinds and not just a girl and boy relation. "Relations"..Daniel calls it "connections"..I feel its the most appropriate word one can describe relationships with. You need to connect with the other person to build a relation. You need give yourself to get something..and also its a test for your patience. now it sounds dangerous. No I don't want to make this a funny thing..coz its really a damn serious business..


For me, each and every relation I build is important. May be that is the reason I m so curious to know how the other person doing. Some like it, most find it as an interference...but for me..they are important and our relation is important and not their personal life..One thing I have understood is it is equally challenging and difficult to make and sustain a good relation. You can easily predict if there is connection happening or not..and thats the time you have to decide to go ahead with it or let it go. I have always been fascinated by people...there is so much good a person has to offer you and you can give..you just need to know your call and listen to your conscience. Of course each relation has its side effects.. Sometimes you get fooled, sometimes betrayed and most of the times hurt. And it really hurts...but over the time you need to learn to let it go..coz if you sit and calculate, the amount of joy and good values other person gave you still count more than the pain..


What I keep always with me are the good memories. And when you look back or spend time with your own self..they automatically bring a smile. I am still not convinced by this saying that "every relation comes with an expiry date." NO..I don't agree..There are relations which say its wrong..relation with your own self,with your parents, your best friends, and the person you spend your life with...So what if the person dies..you never forget him/her...never forget the moments you have spent..never break the connection, you once made..so how can you say your relationship ended..and then above all these there is a relationship...with god...the most ultimate relation..


Trust me...this is one thing which you constantly do...build connections..sometimes knowingly..sometimes unknowingly...and this whole process makes you the person you are..whatever you do in your life..how big shot person you become..finally what counts are the successful connections you made throughout...its the same thing which is as delicate as a bubble..and at the same time as strong and precious as diamond...so its your call..you wish to have a bubble or a diamond...coz it all depends on you..you need to "connect it.."
