We could better be human!!


Not so long ago, when human beings - the darest living species on planet Earth - grew a world that made the lives of the entire world beautiful. This may be heartening for the 7billionth child born last year as now she sees only the world that could be far away in her wildest dreams. The biggest question is what happened between the first human being born and the 7billionth one? That is planet Earth all about! It may just take a single line to post a question like this, but the enormity of damage that was witnessed by the total living species all these years is better than the worst! We fail to see life as a gift; 'we' here refers to the so-called human beings including the writer. We misunderstand life! The theme of a purposeful life has been completely vanished! The character of compassion, kindness, benevolence and truthfulness is hard to seek and find! It is better to be playing the child-games than be on the competitive race starting from mid-20s to early 60s. Everyone who has seen this world with a narrow-minded thought has disappeared like the sand dunes in deserts. All great men who are still remembered are just because they lived a life with a human feeling. The feeling of oneness and humanity was in their blood and thus, they are here amidst us as statues, inspirational figures, currency notes, postal stamps, offices and still in the hearts of some men. Nowadays, the common man is more like a machine. He runs behind money; he runs for fame; he runs for settling his life; he keeps running; but finally forgets that the run never ends and that the run for settling life is still a run! The world is full of doubts and inconsistency. The aspect of being betrayed by the fellow beings is inevitable. Nobody in this world is sure of what they need to do and how. The questions are plenty but answers are less. The seekers are more but solvers dry in this vast sand-ocean. We have got achievers but they even aren't content. As said always, god has betrayed. He gave everything that one needs to find themselves happy but he failed to give the quality of 'contentment'! The seekers keep seeking until the seek becomes sick. The world would be empty. If there are no buyers, who will be the sellers? Similarly, a common man would soon be deprived of everything a child born on this planet has to ask for - food, water, shelter! Where are we going ahead? Sorry, ahead is contradictory here. Yes, even we are not sure whether we are moving ahead or not. It’s an utter useless life if we fail to give back something useful to the nature which has till now brought us up. Further, we are human beings and are written on our forehead to leave this great earth one day. None knows when the D-day is. So what is there in living a meaningful life within that 'life' period? What is there in sharing love, smiling at people, admiring nature, adoring calmness, authenticating calmness, adobing your colors of happiness on the life's portraits? It's not work. It's a process. It's not justification. It's mere acceptance! He who lives life to the most is considered god! We needn't be gods; let’s just be the children of them! Love your neighbors. Share your good thoughts with friends. Keep your family together. Make your workplace as heaven. If you are a leader, make your followers praise you. Be good to them and they'll repose their likeness on you through faith and hard work. There is nothing bigger than forgiving. There is nothing worse than betraying. Forgive and forget the worst; target and treasure the best! Let’s be the ambassadors of goodwill and the ghost-riders of bad! Let’s be the promoters of peace and Prometheus of terror. At least if not for others, let’s be true to our ourselves. Let’s accept that everyone born on the planet is meant for a purpose. Let’s believe nature is our friend and we are their brothers - because even before man was born, trees came into existence - and not foe. Let’s appreciate ourselves and give the world of confidence. Life is beautiful and we are blessed to the best of possibility to be born with six senses. Even species with a single sense goes with the nature, why aren't we? The answer lies within, search for it! Live life; years are rolling! Time never stops; tide never stops! Spread the cheer; sky is constant; earth is constant; air is constant; truth is constant. We could better be human!!

Cruel Roses!

----- An ode to friendship!! -----


What’d have the world been without disgust?
A world only with happiness and prosperity!?
A world featuring transparency and tranquility!?
No, it’s a world filled with friends and family.

A cruel rose binds people selflessly and taxingly!
It sets the hearts to fire rather rapidly!!
Once some force brings its cruelty out;
The thorns of the roses show their way out…

The intensity of that cruelty is hard to explain;
The curiosity of people hurted gets out of terrain…
I owe my fate to myself only, as who sows the seeds
Reaps; gets everything and if present too, its weeds!

Nevertheless, one needs to understand that happiness
Is not only the way to express the willingness!!
It’s also the medium telling the close ones,
How much we care them in spite of proneness?!

Our world is too small to ignore that smallest news,
So it made me up to see you as the very good harness;
It leads to my end of time and I begin from there,
As a nation’s solitary soldier to wage a warfare!

Given up the need that I go in search of good;
Far across the world through nation and wood;
I found you surprisingly rather wittingly
And it transformed my life beautifully…

Life at its outset is a bed of roses and phrases!
It starts with a group of happy-makers and pauses;
And transfers to a world of freshness and gives
Us the way our life has to be learnt and taught!

Taken in the grittiness of one’s heart forms their core,
Your pleasing face alone made me to spring roar!
I’m indeed blessed to have what many others don’t,
And in this limited space I’m a witless ant than rot!

I have the gift of making things together easier;
I have the blessing of getting friends sweeter;
In spite of featuring all those exceptional talent,
I’m still waiting for the sun to set in this unknown planet!

Lot of people has said it’s better to be praying!
Than blessing; it’s better to be preying than giving;
But mind everyone, there is no good in doing bad;
There is no god in the place of guilt and people sad!

All I had done is only for you, whatever!
I wonder why it takes so much time, whatsoever!
For you to understand me and come back
To the place you lived happily heaven-like!!

We talked for hours like none have ever done so,
We grew our lives together always happily oh!
We were the ambassadors of goodwill from heaven!
There were not many people with such haven!

You spelt my name the most wonderfully!!
I had leapt leaps and bounds blissfully;
Though the penchant for repeated interests grew;
The alter came to effect with liabilities all new…

Out of all the things you told only the promises
Still dominate in me; those are real treasures
Embarked in my armory and a line leads ever,
You said, ‘hope our friendship lives forever’!!

Remember those days dear; we were happier than gods;
Even making them jealous! Richer in pleasure than the kings;
Planting greediness in them over us!! Your countless words,
Only mean my countless days I’d be happy on these herds!

Come back friend, there is no other escape route to cheer;
I just need your friendship and not any other thing, you hear!
There is nothing more than you in me which is so full of life;
Your sole word of forgiveness would give my life a rebirth hype…
