A GLASS OF TIME...

By: Romi Singh




Time doesn't wait for u
nor for me..
Days pass and years go by..
we miss our loved ones.
we move away from our close ones.


As our life changes so do our dreams and priorities. Friends change ..people and places do get changed.But those red and blue moments are still twinkling in our hearts .Making us happy in sad times ..and sometimes sad in happy times.As we all know that the wheel of life is tied with so many strings from friends to family..from child games to school hours from college days to work hours and as of a trend of this modern world yours girlfriend silly long talks and frequent fights...Personal space is somewhere a bit lost isn't it?


I find my hours and days too short too explore the world and discover its glory..to short to seize my golden moments with my close ones..to short to walk and touch the glittering dreams of my life.


I am not so grown up and nor so wise enough but yet can watch and hear the TIME marching in its own rhythm. My MOTHER NATURE losing its greenery day by day and the empty spaces filling up with black and white cattle .The world loosing its glory and each day crime coming up with a new story..Bonds and emotion in all hearts and soul have gone dried fetching for just love and trust to quench their thirst .Words have turn into swords and people ready to play with each other blood just for foolish ego and revenge have gone so wild and behaving like a silly child.


If i my whisper is loud enough and if i am able to touch all my readers wandering thoughts all i wanna say is that life is too short to be wasted on unworthy matters . Discover your own self and get yourself free from this tug of war of time..Don't get so much trapped in this materialistic noisy world that you are not even able to see the shadow of thou's walk of life..Wait ..Watch and Enjoy ..before the glass of time gets empty from your life.

Oldest Memory - A Remedy  

Posted in

Do you ever feel low and due to lack of guidance feel sick and stuck? I know most of us do. And if you don’t, then sir, I tag you awesome ... you need not read further.

But the ones, who do feel that way, shouldn’t worry. It’s human. We all have our bad moments/phases in life. We commit mistakes, we fall, we get up again and life keeps rolling like that. Isn’t it? I’m discussing this with you today because my that phase is on. Yes, that phase when you cry ugly rivers of tears cursing your life, yourself and everyone around you asking - can life be anymore worse?

I know it’s a common thought. Most of us tell/ask ourselves all these things. But, do we all get our answers? I don’t. I never did. In 19 years of my age, I dunno how many such low-down-sulking moments I have faced but conclusion? I’m nowhere near that word. Why though? May be because I’m not looking for it? May be because there isn’t any?
Guys, we all are like those bunnies in wheels. Running full circle. Getting confused, taking wrong decisions, regretting, falling, trying to correct and repeating. And trust me, stopping this ritual, is kinda hard. Not that I’m trying to tell you that your life is always going to suck like that, but there is nothing wrong in it. It’s a part of growing up. It depends on you how you deal with it. Degree of depression depends on your mindset. Losing a pet, say a dog, can depress me to the core, but to someone like Atul, probably won’t even affect! And that is exactly why you shouldn’t run around searching for generalized answers or advices. Because there is no one on earth who knows you better than you do.

So what is it that you should do to get over this phase if not seeking others advice or help?

Do you! (No pun intended)

If you haven’t already understood what I meant by that then let me tell you a little more specifically. In such phases/moments of dilemma, in spite of looking around the world for answers, search yourself. And if you don’t know what to look for, within (which most of us don’t) go figure, idiot!

Anything that gives you peace of mind is your answer! In my case, the answer I found out wasn’t even related to my problem, but it still helped. Provided me respite from thinking crap about me and the world.
Want to know what I did? I was trying to cry, last night, because I was really frustrated. But tears won’t come! I was shocked, cuz I am a person who cries too often and very easily. And then I noticed something, which was obvious but I cared to look deeper.

Change.

I am changing. Venting your frustration out through crying was MY method earlier. Now it’s not. Since when? There are changes taking place in me and I’m not even aware of it? Disgraceful!

So what do I resolve to now, in order to take my frustration out? How do I take it out ... what did I do the last time I was this frustrated? And in the process of finding answer to that, what I did was an intense scan through myself.

I sat and started thinking of the last such memory. I didn’t want to get stuck in reverse, so one after one I went back to all the major incidents of my life. With this, memories that I didn’t intend to recall too flashed in my mind. Which made me curious and I suddenly forgot my problems and started looking for my first/oldest memory. It took me time, but I finally managed to discover my oldest memory.

It’s with my Dad and my first cousin; I was one and a half year old, then.In order to reach here, to my first/oldest memory, I unfolded SO many chapters of my life. Some of those were full of awesomeness, some of those were sad, some of those were total waste of time, but all of them carried an encrypted message within them. And so now I know that, the moment I decipher each and every message these chapters of my memory carry, that moment I’d learn how to break this full circle of agony I keep running into.

After doing this, my problems didn’t solve, neither did I feel content, but I have a remedy now. I have a treatment to fill in this cavity. That first memory. It makes me smile, fills me with joy, calms me down, refuels my thoughts and energizes my body. In simpler words, makes me feel alright on my own.

So Amitians, the next time you are sulking, don’t open www.google.com and read your horoscope/tarrots or get drunk and call up your friends or do any such horrible thing (I know almost everyone of us has done things like this or things even more stupid, haha) Just find out that one thing (relevant or irrelevant) that will help you making your peace.


Btw, ever wondered which is your oldest memory? Try it ... it’s fun! xD
