Donate Blood...Save Life...Make a Difference...!!!

Have you ever thought that you can help in saving a life. Yes, you can really be a saviour for someone counting breaths. Doesn't this sound something miraculous. Many of you must have been donating blood from time to time or as required. But I still feel we need to spread the awareness among the lot. This reminds me of a saying - 'Be a blood and organ donor. All it costs is a little love'. What if we can spread some kindness, which in turn can make a difference in some one's life. Believe me, the feeling is marvelous, a deed done totally out of generosity and goodness, for the welfare of others. I experienced the same recently, though for the very first time. Found that, have really missed something. Just reciprocating my feelings and perception over here. All you need to be hale and hearty, and must thank the mighty for blessing you with supreme health. Let's make an attempt to gift a life to some one who is solely striving for it.Believe me the feeling of giving is different within itself, so why deprived from such a benevolent act. Give a thought..:)
Stay Healthy. Save Life..!

and information momentous it encloses
Bridging the gap between miles,

Ongoing action of composing and receiving,
running round the clock,checking from time to time
Xeroxing or scribbling, Creativity to compass,
articulating thoughts new , wait n hope keep it alive..!

An Attempt to Make a Difference, A Desire to bring smile...

An Attempt to Make a Difference, A Desire to bring smile... Yes, this was the mere thought that drove me towards the program - 'U-CARE Friendship Program'. Much Thanks to my organization for giving me such a striking opportunity, a scope to enlighten few hearts , a chance to meet few kids from 'Vidya' - a NGO School. All it required is to charge those naive faces with the spark of confidence, with the wings of courage..to nourish their dreams , to up bring their desires..!
Every fortnight, how I urge to get an hour out of my monotonous work schedule, to meet those faces, to mentor those tiny tots. Can't express the smile they bear, the innocence they outburst with. It gives me a feeling of immense satisfaction, an sense of doing something, by putting in bare minimum efforts though. Believe me, these kids have enough in them, the talent to outburst, the only thing they need is to show them a ray of hope, an illusion of right direction.
To showcase, I've an instance. How the loud voiced ambitious learners demanded every one's attention , the words are still dancing in my head, enough they had to share about their experience, with us so far. Leaving behind the hesitation, each one could stand to address the class.
"I love this place. My knowledge has increased .I've learnt tenses, mmm gk, and states. My didi name is Madhu didi. She teach us very well. She makes sure we understand everything. never scolded us. I love to study."
Wow. I feel so glad to hear those words from one of the 6th grade trio of my group.Earning those words is superb, but trust me nothing I have done is out of the world.no struggle, no sweat.
Anything you dislike about this place : "hmmm..yes 1 thing . (ceegrate peena.. what it is called ? ..smoking,I replied). When we came i saw few people near gate smoking. it looks very bad."
Just imagine, how sharp they are to sense the fact.
Can we say something to every one..the chorus blew up: "We wish you and your family a very happy Diwali. We love you all".
Lost was the stumbling and so was the shyness.

Love you little kids..!!!
Proud to be associated with you all..!!!
Keep going and God bless...!!!

All we need is to infuse more spirit and spread more smiles. To touch few hearts and to shower the kindness.To teach in few and to learn a lot. A minute effort to make a difference, an utmost desire to inspire some one dream high.

Let us come together and do something to Make some difference.
Reiterate the great words by Mahatma -
"Be the change you want to see in the world"

Let us spread the aura of love and compassion all around.
Reminds me of lines by Hannah Moore
"Love never reasons but profusely gives; gives, like a thoughtless prodigal,
its all, and trembles lest it has done too little."

So, why not we can make a an effort to give something to our society , a bit of what we have achieved.A sense of giving is something that soothes us at the end of the day, isn't it?

SBT City Walk..An Experience to quote..!!!

Have you ever thought of walking down across the streets of Delhi and that too in an early hour of Sunday morning. Yes we were wide awake, to experience the break of dawn. The purpose was to cherish the rising dreams visible in the eyes of a young street boy, the dreams as vibrant as those city lanes he took us to. The walk was supposed to be led by the guide of the day -Ajay alias Max-as he loves to be called as. The journey started through the backstreets of Delhi, followed by his experiences, his attachment with the place as couple of his childhood years were spent on the same streets. What bought him there, how he'd spent his life , what odds he'd faced, how and what led to transformation in his life, were some tit-bits of instances being shared by him. So it was more of a walk towards the memory lane for him, 'Walking the past in the present'.

Ajay was one among those thousands who chose railway station as a mere shelter for them, having no clue of home or family. Drug addiction, starvation, pick-pocketing were something that came as part and parcel for Max during that period of life. As it's well said that 'every dog has it's day', there came a turning point in his life. His face shone with glitter of pride as he mentioned how SBT discovered him. Max continued by telling about his transformation from a drug addict then, to a chocolate lover now, from bullying around then to spending his hours in learning now. Yes, he is entirely transformed, a change leading to betterment of society, a change which could be felt. Ajay has a strong mission now, the power to chase his dreams. He has left behind his past and moving forward, not only earning today but studying and learning foreign languages as well, which was highly remarkable and solely motivating for us. A clear vision could be seen in his eyes when he told his dream to become a train driver, owing to his deep attachment for providing him roof. His deterministic attitude while sharing his future plan to go abroad for higher studies, is something worth mentioning. His words were an eye-opener for us, his story was a spark enough to ignite us. The way he expressed, the confidence he carried, the smile throughout on his face was enough to leave a strong imprint on everyone's heart.

Followed by few more streets, railway station of course, he took us to one of SBT's shelter homes for small children. It was an awful experience, seeing such small children over there, those innocent faces, all clueless and homeless, surely insisted us to think about the cruelty of life. It was a totally incomparable experience, spending some time with those 'bundle of joys' who splashed the aura with their talents.

SBT, you deserve an applause for restoring the world of childhood, taking them from a dark end towards the brightness of new learning, showing a ray of new hope.This is indeed a marvelous effort.!!!

P.S. - 'Salam Balak Trust' City Walk is a program that aims at making us aware about the street life through the stories of street children who'd lived their lives through these streets, and thus it's a unique way of providing an insight into the lives of these children and an opportunity for them to improve their communication and speaking skills.

Ethics

Inculcated morals
build upon trust,respect and integrity
Reflecting self, conscience speaking
Leading to a win in life's race..!!!

My sleep is what I miss..!!!

Couching on my velvet chair,
Feeling restless,lost elsewhere,
Amidst all snoring hiss,
My sleep is what I miss.

Shaping my castle of dreams,
Building my thoughts on themes,
Yearning to rise in bliss,
My sleep is what I miss.

Draining out the clutter from mind,
Thinking of words to bind,
Ignoring the airy kiss,
My Sleep is what I miss.

Silent night,wandering through the globe,
Wearing the gloomy robe,
Awful is this remiss,
My sleep is what I miss...!!!

Opportunity..!!!

Every strike on the door,
envisaged as a golden opportunity,
arriving from heaven's pathway,
adorning the alluring dreams,
enriching the glitter in vision,
demanding a strong seize..!!!

Single Talks..:)

Wings of freedom,
embracing the leisure of loose,
grooving upon the solace,
enchanting with myself..!!!

Happy Birthday .... To me

Turn a Blind Eye

Trashed to survive
Unborn feeble life
Ripples of dreams
Naked all breached

Attacked to death

Blind, you beast
Lurking from law
Inhuman,you human
Nerd,provoking bane
Daughter is boon

Elicit all compassion
Yield her life
Escort to birth

Wintry Sparks..;)

Frosty Chill, and
Freezing shiver
Oh ,this winter severe,
is hard to beat.

Waves of quiver,
Thunder blast,and
cloudburst of rain,
wintry terror has
much to shower.

Cozy comfy blanket
to cuddle, and
hot sip to sup,
until this chilly breeze,
brisks away with drift.

Frozen hands,and stiff fingers,
couching words,losing trigger,
but my utmost desire,
giving them shape,
I wish to be a poetic sage..:)

VOICES

Vocal lingual expression
Often heard aloud
Immeasurable softness filled
Cracking at times
Ears to reach
Sound of self

Give me some sunshine..Give me some Rain..Give me another chance,I wanna grow up Once Again..!!!

The world around is peacefully snoring, and me non stop listening to this number (don't have a count though),because just thoughts don't let me go.A bit aloof, somewhat distressed, restless, losing patience,posing temper, oh..my god, isn't it too much of negative vibes surrounding, do these really define me?? I wasn't like this ever,believe me. But, then what is causing this all of a sudden, or it's a gradual effect.Whatever.. But, the main concern is why, the life is seeming so off track, or is it me only moving in the wrong direction. We dream big, even work for them, but are we able to meet our dreams.We think high, but are those positive thoughts radiated back? Trying my hard to power my thoughts, but is it a worthy task, having a control over our mind? I feel, one single wish if granted, one single direction if shown, one single chance if given, I'll be what life desires from me.But, then when will I get that chance or rather how can I get it? You may say, by putting endless efforts, and labor, but even then,is a right direction not needed? A focus should be there, but the area to focus should be one's priority, isn't it? Am, totally lost in this song, trying to subdue my emotions, but still want to ask you, do life offer us another chance, can we get an opportunity to amend our mistakes, what if I realize it now, What if I wish to start again, Is there some one to show me new direction, will I be able to knock any opportunity? Is this song reflecting a part of my life, do I need another chance, do I wish to grow again, do I wish to live life on my own terms,Well, considering the scenario right at the moment it's showing a positive sign.But then, again huge list of when,how ,where quenches me.I wish,it's just a passing phase, and I might get back soon, discovering my answers, moving with a firm pace,living my Life..Hope, He is having an eye over my thoughts, after all He has to listen..!!!

Maa Tujhe Salaam..!!!

Heyy friends..I know, you must be sensing the presence of my absence, After a long time,I'm returning,and I've a list of excuses for that.Living with a state of mind, entirely bewildered, and longing for something righteous to happen.Losing clutch on my obsession, is something which is really bothering me at the moment.Amidst all this, a sincere thanks goes to few of my friends for always raising my spirits, just love the quality moments spent with you.I've been wasting my time over some silly social networking amusements,now I'll try to stay away before the addiction hits me.Last but not least,the freezing winters am living in, do play some role in drifting me away from my space, just lazying around in the chill, ample to learn from the people around, but i fail.In this shivery season, where frost seems to be at it's peak,I see one person running around just for the sake of her family.Before, the dawn breaks, she can be noticed commencing the habitual routine, as if matching the pace with the tick of clock.Dedicating the whole of her life in just serving us, meeting our endless demands.A question, strikes me here, does the winter chill don't bites her, can't she lay off with any excuse, but still my self loves to be so reluctant, i feel helpless.Devoting, the huge percentage of the day in standing in front of the stove, serving with varieties, innumerable and the unmatched delicacy, without expecting a word of praise. A bit of vex in my life,and I can feel the crease of tense and worry burdening her, what shall I pay for this admiring concern? Whenever.I'd been in any suffering, a healing hand I've always felt near me, A soft caress,I've never missed, but what about her ailments, she never grumbled,or I was least concerned. A Life of compromises engrossed with adjustments, facing and sacrificing at every step, is it so easy to live?Whatever dearth, she is in, she could never let you feel any scarcity, always have seen her showering the oceans of love and care.A quest soars often in my mind, if God has created her merely for meeting our demands, listen to all our whines, without a single ray of rage, encasing always with the warmth of her cuddle.Yes,that's a mother, a sanctified lady indeed. An impassive soul like me can draw such emotions, but all in vague, What minute efforts do I make, to meet her unsaid expectations? A heartiest salute, to my mother, her unconditional love is beyond any expression,Describing your supportive and understanding nature is virtually impossible.Thanks for making me Me, for courage to face the world, for lessons I've learnt from you and still have in abundance to learn.Again,I salute you..!!!

Another Year..!!!

Yeah..so all set to enter another year..?? A new year, or just another day, with what to honor it, is basically my dilemma, this time..but why am I in such a disoriented state of mind..? Hankering around for a vision, running for a purpose, my brain is just not enough for accumulating all those hefty thoughts, just awaiting to drain them out ,don't want to be preoccupied by any such thoughts and feelings..When, the people around are busy in celebrations, with full enthusiasm in welcoming the new year, am couching without any excitement, as if it would be just another passing day.When I look back, I could feel many arrears, logged into my account, I wish,I could take the life,the other way around, but as we all know, Life is not about looking back,instead Life is all about moving ahead , and as far change is concerned, yes, it begins from self, rather to blame the world around.Sometimes, I feel, if I could have a catch hold on the eloping time, but even that is next to impossible, so I really need to work for my perception, with confidence and an attitude of optimism, yes, this is what I've learnt from a life changing book, but ironically, not able to implement.but, yeah, am going to try this out, better late than never..and I just dream to reach my aspirations following the right direction.This is all, I need to perceive.So,just need to see,where I land up..My dear friends,hope,I've note bored you much with my thought factory.:)
Oh..how can I forget to Wish you all a very bright and joy filled Happy New Year.May the year ahead, mark it's prior importance in your lives.So,here,Wishing that you all might have a rocking year ahead..Happy 2010..!!!
