THE RAINS ARE FINALLY HERE..................

As i there across my window i felt the little drizzle drops gently touch my face , it was so warm and soothing to just sit there and let the rain caress you in all its tenderness ,to just sit there and stare at the beautiful forked lighting change from deep purple to sliver and set the whole night sky ablaze was heavenly and listening to awful roar of thunder,the beat of the raindrops i was totally so awed by mother nature and her exquisite beauty.
my thoughts were interrupted when i saw these kids screaming for joy , running around enjoying the showers they were busy enjoying their little game of football, across the street the "bhutta" vendor was making brisk business,people simply walking down the street enjoying the lovely weather funny isnt it just a few hours ago this street was sunbaked and not a soul around but now its so full of life . Indeed the rains are finally here , and i went on to enjoying the rains sipping my garam coffee and welcoming mother nature in my own little way.

MUMBAI MERI JAAAAAAAAN....

Was barely a forthnight that i left my little city that I was despartely yearning to come back . The choatic lifestyle,the hustle-bustle of totally maddening city ,the rush hour traffic ,the noise, the crowds, the trains and most of all the people I seemed to be missing all of it.Sunddenly I was no longer travelling by trains it all was really quiet and peaceful no crowds nothing it was as though my otherwise crazy lifestyle had come to a complete standstill and all of sundden I had all the time in the world .
But werid as it may sound I still didn't enjoy myself (as I had imagined myself to), sunddenly all the peculiar sights and sounds of my city which otherwise would constantly crib about was something i was really looking forward to seeing once again yes ! indeed i was waiting to see the maddness,grime,chaos,vadapav/bhelpuri/panipuri wallas(that i would otherwise compeletly detest).
Funny isn't it even when i had the most beautiful beaches(that were really clean) ,a more serene and calm atmosphere and a very laidback relaxed lifestyle(all of which i always thought make an ideal holiday and something that I looked forward to) I still yearned for MUMBAI ,
and when was back in MUMBAI i constantly cribbed about its flaws well seriously" THIS IS MUMBAI YOU CAN'T LIVE WITH IT , AND YOU DEFINETLY CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT OUT"

CRYSTAL WATERS.......

as i sat watching the reflection of setting sun in the water , seeing darkness gently set in intially its the lighter hues that gradually becoming darker. The water as still as ever , indeed for a moment i felt it was the reflection of the current happenings of my life , that had filled it it with complete darkness &yes i had given up all hope . I didnt see a way out i felt so lost just then my thoughts were interrupted when i saw the water sparkling (due to the streetlights around), it was so beautiful and it had such a soothing effect on me, its then that i realised even through the darkest hour one cannot give up so easily afterall like another things this to shall pass its only momentary .as i walked back home that night i felt strangely less burdened , also suprisingly it didnt take me long to stand up tackle my problems .I didnt feel so helpless any more it helped take some of the decisions which proably i wouldnt have done other wise , all i now know that i am at peace something that ceased to be with me for so long finally i can say its the end to a very long day indeed
