The one last call…

In this life, we so easily take moments and people for granted, assuming they’ll always be there tomorrow. But the truth is, everything we love carries an unseen goodbye. So when your loved one calls, don’t silence the ring — answer it, listen, speak. Because you never know when that familiar voice might fall silent forever. And if that call was their last, you’ll carry the weight of wishing you’d picked up, just once more, to say all the things that now live only in your heart.

Chasing a dream is like walking an endless road, burdened by the echoes of the past. As we move forward, we unknowingly leave behind pieces of ourselves—moments, people, and memories that once meant everything. And when we finally pause, we realize how far we've come, yet how much we've lost. The path back is never the same, and caught between the pursuit of dreams and the weight of what we've left behind, we grow.

"Human relationships are like boats sailing across the ocean.”

Some boats leave the shore, disappear beyond the horizon, and are never seen again—just like the countless people we cross paths with once and never meet again. But some boats we board and sail with. These are the people we live with, experience life's storms and calm seas alongside. With them, we feel the rise and fall of waves—the highs and lows of life. Yet, if we stay the course, we eventually reach a destination together. Nature reflects our journey in countless ways; we just have to start observing it."

घर से निकले और भीड़ हो गए हम ।
और फिर सपनो की दौड़ में मशगूल हो गये हम ।

When we were children, there was a tree in the courtyard of our village house. It wasn’t just a tree—it was a treasure trove of memories. We played games under its shade, listened to the elders laughing and discussing politics over a hookah, and slept beneath the stars with cousins, the sky so clear. But as we moved into modern high-rise apartments, we lost the peaceful essence that the tree in the courtyard once gave us.

When we were children, from high places, we would gaze at distant horizons where the earth seemed to meet the sky, dreaming of reaching that faraway spot one day. But as we grew older, we realized that such a place never truly existed. Similarly, many people chase after endless dreams, one after another, never fully achieving them. Eventually, you come to understand that it's more important to appreciate what you have, rather than constantly longing for what you don't.

Home is more than just a building made of bricks and mortar; it’s an entire ecosystem that includes family, friends, neighbors, and even familiar faces like the local shopkeeper. It’s made up of the people you know—relatives, classmates, colleagues, and others who form the fabric of your everyday life. When we leave our hometowns in search of work, we don’t just leave a house; we leave behind this entire ecosystem. Recreating that sense of community elsewhere is difficult, which is why people often feel the need to return home, even if only for a short time.

घर रच बस गया है यादो में कुछ इस तरह ।
एक लम्हा गुज़रता नहीं और घर याद आ जाता है ।

बहुत कुछ रह जाता है अंधेरे में गुमनाम कहीं
और ज़िन्दगी निकल जाती है उजालो की तलाश में

The roads we travel often tell the story of our lives and memories. The first time you see a road, it might seem scary and unfamiliar, but as you travel it more, especially with loved ones, it becomes familiar. As you grew older, you began taking an auto-rickshaw, and the road started to feel more familiar. By the time you reached middle or high school, you were riding your bicycle with friends, exploring the shops along the way. When school ended, you said goodbye to that road and rarely visited it again, repeating the cycle with new roads in college and at work.

So, when you find yourself on a road that holds pieces of your memories, take a moment to pause—it’s sure to bring a smile to your face.
