State of Mind

 "Confused and overburdened mind,

Spoil the charm of day in every kind

The solution....If you cannot find

The time will take charge to grind."

This is the situation, I was going through within last few weeks. It's true that time is not always with you. It keeps on changing, knowingly or unknowingly. It's like the wave of a sea. You are standing at a point of beach and waiting for the big wave to drench you, but it is not coming.  But you can see big waves just around you in left and right side. Where you are standing to get it and feel it, not happening

Our life is similar to this. We plan a lots of things together for family, friends and for ourselves, but all the plans always never work. That's why the proverb is perfect- "Man proposes, God disposes.

Since few days, I can feel the writer's block and burden of work, board exam of son- all these were making me confused and overburdened. Tried to help myself by yoga and meditation, but still not happy from within. It felt like time is just slipping from my palms. I want to do many things, but time is less. It felt like- about to die, but want to live eagerly. So it's like a dilemmatic situation for me.

Sometimes the work flow is good and convenient with time. But sometimes it's too hard to cope up. If we ignore a very tiny part, it may create a huge difference and mistake too. I went through this situation. It was hard to digest for me , "how can I do this? How can I ignore this?" That happened with me, but one thing I realised that, we can overcome any problem, if we have faith.

Take a long breathe, take a break

Pray to God for help in whole mind

Keep patience in your heart

And wait for the magic to happen

As I believe in one more thing, if you think positive inspite of all odds, you can win over the odd situation. Have faith in God and yourself. Give your best shot and move on.

My Hindi poetry Solobooks

  ये दास्तां मेरे एहसासों की, मुझे जीने की राह दिखाए,

अनकहे अनसुने लफ़्ज़ों को होठों की दहलीज़ पर लाए।

औरत की तस्वीर से छलकती है यूँ हक़ीक़त की खुशबू,

इन दोनों से दोस्ती, मेरी जिंदगी की नई पहचान बनाए ।

My two solobooks are now on Amazon and thank you Notion press and Ink Zone publication for giving me this opportunity. 

Another important fact is, both paintings are done by me ( cover page and back page  of both the books ).

Thank you YQ to give me a platform to write more and better than before, helping me in improving my writing skills.    

Peer pressure...Bane or Boon

 //Peer pressure- bane or boon //

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

Pressurising one or influence one with or without the consent, by different groups of people around personal level or social media is the peer pressure. This is now predominant in our society, mainly in the age group of 13 to 15 yrs. Than boys, girls are in peer pressure in accordance with clothing, behavioral and speaking skills. Boys are pressurised with self-confidence, ego and self-reliance in relation to brands, games etc. This is common in our society now. We are pressurised to show ourselves great and better than others.This peer pressure can be individual or in group. 

Yes, I have been in the same situation. During my school days, I was kept introvert. My friends were confident in speaking and communicating, but I was scared as I was told not to speak much. So I didn't know when, what to speak. The judgement of friends was scary for me. Gradually, during graduation, I started talking to people confidently and then I started overcoming this peer pressure with the help of good peers only.

It is now prevalent in our society. So, we have to teach our children to be self-reliant and to keep faith in themselves. The good and bad sides of everything should be discussed with them, mainly with adolescent kids. They need cognitive guidance and support a lot than any other age groups. Be a peer, to erase the peer pressure. 

The negative impact will be like drinking, smoking, drugs and many more, as negative things attract fast. So without any hesitation, we can teach everything about peer pressure, our financial and family situations. This will help them to make decisions, whether it is bane or boon. Lastly, we are with them as parents always.

Food for feast

 

P.C - Lopamudra Pal 

15th Birthday party of Rick @Pune

🍔🍔Impact of Food....Food for Feast🍔🍔

Food..... Fundamental Obsession Of Diminishing hunger.

This is an integral and must requirement of each and every living organisms.

" Nothing can bring everyone together than good food." 

This unavoidable  need gives smile on face, cools down the stomach and fills the heart with calmness and peace. Many people, many thoughts regarding food. Few says " food is important, if we stop eating we will die." Few says " As we are alive, we can have food as food is not necessary or important than life." 

Food is the best way of hospitality and the respectful way of relationship. There are many importance of food, as we all know. This is the vital part of life and lifestyle.

Food helps us to grow physically with lots of nutritional values, but socially it has more impact on our life. In our life, from birth to death we celebrate many occasions. We invite our near and dear ones to be a part of our happiness or in sorrows. When we greet people to our place, we offer water, juice, snacks, main course in form of lunch and dinner. These are the minimum etiquettes we have learnt from childhood. But we forget or neglect the impact of food on our daily life or on special days. 

When a child is born, the happiness is shared with sweets, then rituals like naming ceremony, first rice feeding, birthdays etc.. Consecutively these are the steps moving forwarded with age.

When naming ceremony is organised, the food is associated with different forms like prasad, having lunch or dinner with many delicious food. The prepared menu may be vegetarian or non-vegetarian, but food arrangement is must.

If the guest have the food properly in tummy full and peace in heart, the host is satisfied heartily.

It impacts on our daily life, in terms of tiffins to office, school etc. This food is nothing a bonding between the host and the guest. The satisfaction of host can be felt with the smile on the face of guest. This brings them together and boring gets more stronger. This creates good memory that lasts long. 

In the same case, when anybody dies, during eleventh or twelfth day the feast is arranged for peace of the departed soul. Guests show sympathy and it creates bonding between the two persons and the family members too. 

The impact of food in form of needs and feast are always powerful with great aesthetic essence. 

" FEED GOOD FOOD, 

CREATE GOOD MOOD."

This must be the essence. I believe in feeding with pure heart and soul, makes a person happy. The strong bond between human beings ever and ever.

Mind Election against Addiction

✨✨Mind Election against Addiction✨✨

Often I ask myself, 

what should I do, what should not I do!

During the questionnaire session

Heart says to quit,

Mind opposes it but slight.

In the dust and dawn,

I find the beautiful sun,

Going to and fro, help the world to run.

The heart asks me,

"Why cant you quit?

Be like the immortal sun,

Don't be too stubborn."

They realisation Jar of mind

Now became very kind,

But heart said something now,

It does not matching with the mind.

I tried to quit my long-run addiction,

But I failed many times, as it didn't

satisfy my expectations.

Tried harder and harder

and said to myself again,

" I will not touch cigarette from tomorrow",

But alas! With the rising sun, 

every resolution went in vain.

With the love and care from my partner,

I thought of my beautiful life

just now and then,

But after trying many times,

everything and every time,

The Beautiful Addiction Love came to me again.

I found myself in a dilemmatic situation,

Why I started it years ago,

Now in the trap of this habit of smoking cigarettes ,

Just hitting me and my So called Ego.

I tried not to look at it or think of this addiction,

But after some hours,

Felt dizziness and lack of concentration.

The addiction was the part of my working lifestyle now,

I try to quit for my better health,

But can't get the way of "how".

Still I do, what I don't want to do,

But I will quit my addiction 

in few days or in months too.

I will play with my mind and heart

and start observing the addiction lit, 

If I will be stubborn enough with my thoughts,

I can deal with the addiction kit.

Let me make my brain the 

strong opposition party,

Let's play the election game, 

for quiting addiction dignity.

Hope the day will come soon,

I will too say,

I do, what I think to do,

I don't do, what I don't want to do.

So use the brainpower,

make it more stronger,

Get rid of addictions,

From then, now and never.

Rest with zest

 

 

Rest with zest

Keep yourself calm and cool,

Take s break from your schedule

Don't be like old school.

Work will be completed

with all its glorious parts,

Help your mind with little zest

and think about your heart.

Just chill and take rest and 

give time to take test.

When heart,body and mind 

balance is done,

Soul shows its ecstatic shades.

REST, A simple word,but very complicated. It has many meanings with prefixes and suffixes.But the REST means to keep your time for yourself, maintain body and mind balance. ME time that fixes the problem and rejuvenate you, is the perfect time for resting body and testing mind for creating new ideas. We in our daily lives don't take out time for ourselves and then starts blame-game. Sometimes we indulge into the problems so badly that we cannot realise what we are getting and what we are losing. We try to satisfy each and every one, professionally and personally. But it's not always possible. Still we try harder and harder to get it done. We get really tired of being perfect. Perfection and being perfect is good,but not always. 

We as human beings, gets frustrated and take wrong steps. We can go on verge of breaking relationship too. But we don't realise the main problem. We don't look at the angle,that we actually need a break and want to take rest with zest.We need to get a break from everything we do,we think, we plan,we cook,we read,we write... everything. "Just be with me", that should be the essence of being in rest. 

The heart is a very small thing,but very precious. It undertands all the feelings, situations, emotions, good,bad ... everything. Resting the heart means rejuvinating it with more good and positive thoughts. The longevity increases. Now, everyone is overloaded with work and the pressure is burdened with bad impact on heart and mind. It affects family members, other relations as well. Keeping yourself cool for all situations is the only solution. It can be taken by taking a break for resting. Divide the works among family members and spread equality. Work is a never ending thread. It's s continuous process. We need to take rest for making the future bonding strong enough to handle all the odds. 

"Stop overthinking. 

You cannot control or change everything. 

Let the things go with the flow."

An understanding heart is always a tired one. It takes out positivity from negativity.

It too gets tired.It too needs rest for a while. But actually we don't take. We should go for the break for our heart, mind, body and soul. Close your eyes, think nothing. Leave the worries behind. Keep your mind cool with low volume soothing music. Take long breathe, exhale and inhale. Feel the power of heart and brain syncing together. Then your nerves of brains will run in a supersonic way. 

Taking a break in any way,is to get yourself in a Restart Mode. Sit in the balcony and look around the nature with a deep breath. Feel serenity and calmness within . That's the result of  rest with zest.

Shades of relation(poem)

 SHADES OF RELATIONS

The journey of life is twists and turns with full of delight,
Reach out the destination with lots of care and little fight.

Make new relationship with the the drop of commitment,
Responsibility is huge, maintain it with low temperament.

All the relations are based on pile of modesty and dignity,
Most importantly be loyal to yourself and shine with loyalty.

Compile everything into one and only You, with a smile,
All the relations will be flowing like a river mile after mile.

Keep the treasure of life as a gift with all the happiness,
Commit to the relations, to fulfill its beauty and the essence.
