To live a life to its fullest is an art, especially a hard one..it takes every ounce of your power to stand tall even though the ground you are standing on is slipping away. Brick by brick! So, don't expect from me to be brave, everytime. I find it harsh. Tell me that if the last brick collapses, you'll be there to help me fly! I know you can, just tell me you will.

He was my corner, the relaxing one! There always was a light in that corner. Whenever I felt sad, annoyed or happy, I used to sit in that corner. He used to carry me to safety. He used to save me from drowning in those feelings.

This one time, just like that the corner turned into a dark place. It turned quite..oh, so quite. I guess that was inevitable. His leaving was long overdue.

And now I'm drowning again in the sadness. I am tired of being annoyed with everything and I am almost never happy.

I miss my corner!

I saw her once, she was deep in LOVE but not quite happy.

I saw her once again after sometime, and this time she was full of Self-LOVE, laughter and growth!

The point is, love is suppose to make you go crazy, love is somthing that makes you beam with joy.

Love doesn't need you to cry.
Love is something you want to live by.

धर्मनिरपेक्ष भारत !!!

42nd Amendment of Indian Constitution asserts that India is a SECULAR Country.

Today, as I am sitting in my room, watching videos over videos as to how some self declare vigilanties of HINDUISM has taken the law, the system in their hands. How they are attacking people, abusing people asking to chant "Jai Shri Ram" , " Jai Hanuman. " How it has been a normal routine for them to beat someone or to even lynch someone.

And I'm Scared. As a Muslim, I am terrified.
And I want to ask them:-

Do you really think that us chanting "Jai Shri Ram" , " Jai Hanuman " is going to make us any less Muslim and you any more Hindu?

Do you think us chanting "Jai Shri Ram" , " Jai Hanuman" will make all the things that are wrong in this country, right at once?

Don't you think it's about time that the word SECULAR be removed from our Constitution as it clearly has lost its true meaning?

You are on your own. So might as well rock it.

सपनों का मरकज़ ऊंचा रख
खवाबों को अपने ज़िंदा रख,

है वक़्त बुरा,मायूस न हो
राहों को तू रख्शनदा रख।

तुम मंज़िल हो और मैं उस मंज़िल का कारवां।
तुम ज़िद हो और मैं उस ज़िद को पूरा करने का हौसला।
तुम रात हो और मैं वो बात जिस के साए में ये हसीन रात गुज़रेगी।
तुम आंधियों का शोर हो और मैं खामोशी का एहसास।
कितने अलग हैं ना हम?
पर कितने ज़रूरी भी?
तो चलो मैं, मैं ना रहूं और तुम, तुम ना रहो, हम बन जाते हैं।
अधूरी ज़िन्दगी छोड़ कर एक मुकममल जहां बनाते हैं।

Family, people say, is POWER. Family is EVERYTHING. Nobody says it otherwise. But in reality, no one wants to address the elephant in the room. Nobody wants to tell you that family is just another way to bleed. They are the hardest to cut off. It takes a great deal of courage to walk away from that toxicity.

सुनो,
वो जो हम थे ना, किसी लॉकर के combination की तरह थे, वो कॉम्बिनेशन जो हम हमेशा भूल जाते हैं, वो जिसका पासवर्ड हमने किसिका birthday रखा था, पर किसका? ये याद नहीं। और याद रखना कुछ ज़रूरी भी नहीं लगा क्यों के कुछ important नहीं रखा था हमने उसमे।

वो जो हम थे ना, किसी किताब के उस पन्ने की तरह थे जो हमने आखरी बार पढ़ा था पर बुकमार्क लगाना भूल गए। हमने कोशिश नहीं की उस पन्ने को दुबारा ढूंढने में और एक नया chapter शुरू कर दिया।

मसलन, मै ऐसी थी जैसे जब तुम सामने थे तो आंखो और ज़हन में बस तुम्हीं थे, पर जो अब आदत छूट सी गई है तुम्हारी, यूं कह लो उस कॉम्बिनेशन और बुकमार्क की जरूरत नहीं रही अब।

एक नया सा ताला लेकर हमने अपने दिल को लॉक कर लिया है और एक नई सी किताब से दिल लगा लिया है हमने।

सुनो, ये जो नया कॉम्बिनेशन है ना, बहुत ही मुश्किल सा है, पर अब डरती नहीं हूं मैं, जो भूल भी गई, एक कोशिश करूंगी दुबारा याद करने की।

Aaj ek khwab dekha Maine.

Main thi, tum the aur ek veeran, sunsan sa Rasta tha.
Pattharon se bhara hua.
Kafi mushkil tha un par chalna par hum chle ja rhe the.

Kucu Ikhtilaaf tha hmare beech shayad.
Main apne haathon ko baandhe chal rhi thi, tumne bhi mujhse kuch faasla kar rakha tha.

Achanak ek patthar pr Mere pair pden,
Main girne ko thi...
Tumne mujhe dekha aur Maine tumhe.
Par Maine apne bandhe haath nhi khole, na hi tumne un faaslon ko kam kia.
Main giri to nhi, par...

Ikhtilaaf jeet gya. Muhabbat haar gai.

Aaj ek khwab dekha Maine.
