Holi: Is it absolutely needed to celebrate?

By
Holi Hai!! Holi!! Holi!!! Happy Holi… Bura naa Maano Holi hai…Rang Barse… Balam Pichkari….

And a lot many more. A thousand phrases to celebrate the joy of the festival of colors seem to have overpowered everyone. The day is impending, and I know, each and every one would be out there to paint another one, with colors pink, blue and green. Each and every one seem to enjoy this festival which symbolically represents the importance of colors in our lives. We instigate the fact in our lives that colors are essential to paint the canvas called life. Similarly, on higher levels, if we think, we will find that each feeling which we feel, is representative of some or the other color. Some are bright and warm, while others are dull and cold.
But what if someone is an addict to just dull sides of life. Even if he is pushed in a bright and lively world, he feels the pressure to be attracted back to the darker confines of his/her personality. Here, it is not his/her fault. It is just the fault of the world, who is never ready to accept that not everyone in this world can be the same as you. No one can enjoy a day like you. It is completely fine if someone do not like some festival, you do not need to question his/her mental stability. It is just a matter of choice and liking. And in life too, not the whole population is meant to be happy and not everyone likes being happy for long. I know it is human tendency to hope for happiness, but some are meant to take stress and stay dull even when everything is in their favor. This is because they are meant to be so. The world is a complex maze of personalities, who differ from each other in many respect, and the world or nature do not questions someone, or do not snatch the right to live from him.
So, why do people tend to question and make someone feel inferior when he/she do not enjoy happiness more than gloom. Why someone is questioned when his likes and dislikes do not match the majority? Why do people tend to make others feel smaller, who do not like socializing with others.
The world is meant to accommodate diversity and variety. It is high time for us all to understand that too and learn to respect everyone, irrespective of his/her nature, likes, dislikes and orientations. If someone do not want to get wet and soaked in colors, its fine. Make him feel comfortable. Make him feel alive. Have you ever seen the nature pestering one species because it looks ugly or frugal than others? Same should be the case with human beings too.

Experiencing the joy of laughing, on-the-go

By
Fun is an element which can be found practically anywhere. It is there on the streets and it is found in the smiles we experience when we find the latest episode of our favorite serial being telecasted on the television. I am not a television freak, and I do not prefer watching television most of the times due to impending deadlines at work, but am always eager to savor the tales it has to show as per my convenience and schedule. I used a lot of android apps to get hold of one of my favorite light comedy show on Sab TV. But, due to the busy routine, I often had to skip the telecasts because of the time slot restrictions.  For months, I had to skip the episodes, and then try to find old videos of the same. It was just recently that I found the latest Tata Sky+ Transfer set top box, and it came like a blessing in disguise. I am a huge fan of the hilarious tales of Jetha Lal and his neighborhood, but only Tata Sky+ Transfer gave me the power to enjoy the same as per my sch...

Gore haathon me mehandi ka rang hai gehra.... Laage hai ab pyar karne waalon ka aane wala hai waqt sunahara... Ek ek pal ab lagne laga hai thehara thehera.... Ab to bas saanson par hai ek bas yaar ke naam ka pehra... Aa jaye bas ab wo pal jab milein pyar karne waale do dil.... Waqt ko bhagao jaldi kaho yar ko ab jaldi se aa mil Aane ko hi ab hai raat milan ki... Khatam hone ko hi hain ab ghadiyaan sabar ki... Aayega jab yaar tab aayegi suhaani bahaar Milega aakhirkaar tootkar chaha hua wo pyar Jeewan mein fir ek naya savera hoga Khushiyon ka subah shaam fir zindagi mein basera hoga... -Anmol

My Expert My Mummy

By
It has been long since I had seen her, but her memories continue to be fresh in my mind. I wish I could see her once again, I wish she was with me here each single day. Where am I? I am away in some foreign city, away from the home where my mother cared for me, but I know her blessings are always with me. She is away too from the same home for totally different reason, on which neither I neither anyone has any control. She is away from this world leaving me alone here, and resting in peace somewhere while not forgetting to shower her blessing on me every single day. It is rightly said that there is heaven under the feet of mother. And I believe she is somewhere above me and I am constantly in heaven because she is always above me. I have a plenty of memories to share to tell my mom though not being literate enough was much more educated than anyone present in the world. She was not worldly wise. She might not appear logical enough, but all she had in mind was well-being f...
