An ode to thyself

Broken heart,still beating
Teary-eyed,still blinking
Lifeless life,still leading
All for the life's meaning.

Shattered dreams,still dreaming
Society taunted,still living
Loneliness haunted,still struggling
All for the life's meaning.

Expectations high,still keeping
Constraints many,still fighting
Failures hit,still moving
All for the life's meaning.

All for the life's meaning
'Cause life is a painting
 With you easel-facing
 Portraying the picturing.
                                                                                                    

Thinking out loud LOL

Namaste!

     
      One of the most mysterious replies we often receive is "lol". It seriously takes me a minute to decipher the real essence of the received "lol". So here are some cases (yeah,I've done some serious analysis),wherein "lol" must have saved you.
                                    

• Case 1 : A friend sends you a meme and you don't get the meme*a bad situation though,sigh*- You know what would be the best reply in such cases,yeah, a "lol" and insert a tears-from-your-eyes emoji. Job done!

• Case 2 :  You are in the middle of a heated argument and your mind reminds you *tring,tring*- time to put an end to this- The best way to end this would be a "lol" because the essence of "lol" can never be completely deciphered,so,you neither win nor lose.Mission complete!

• Case 3 :  A group conversation and you don't know what on earth is going on -post a "lol" and you have grabbed more attention than Trump had grabbed(or 'is grabbing' :P).  A "lol" and either you would get trolled badly or receive a thunderous applause. *TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK*

• Case 4 : The best way to irritate someone *no,no,I'm not suggesting you* is to keep replying "lol" for every text you receive in any situation . Isn't this pretty irritating? *A victim here*

• Case 5 :  The smartest usage of "lol" *give me a cookie* is to put your point but not to sound offensive. *yeah,typically,putting down with grace*

   PS : Based on true incidents :P

   PPS : Thanks to my annoying best friend(Case-4) for making me analyse "lol" :P

Rock(y)abye

"Yayyyyy!",she exclaimed. Every time she exclaimed ,my heart skipped a beat. Every time she exclaimed ,I felt important. I've been waiting for her touch since long and now the wait's over. Oh my,oh my,she's coming towards me,closer,closer,closer and here she is.Ah,the warm touch of her hand after a long wait.Finally,I've been pulled out of the closet. She's my Juliet who pulls me out of the closet and I'm her Romeo,Rocky,the Suitcase who stays in the closet.

*THE TRIP*

*THE PACKING* Dress 1,in; Dress 2,in; Dress 3,in; Dress 4,in; Dress 5,in,out,in again; Dress 6 in,out,in,out,finally in; Dress 7,in; passport,in ; books,in  and other essentials in,in,in.

And I'm all set to roll!

*THE DAY* She woke up early and so did I,we've got a flight to catch in a couple of hours.She does a quick re-check - passport?- yes,  phone?- yes,  keys? -yes and after a series of "Yes(s)",now we are ready.We get into the car.I always let her drive as I love watching her drive. Vroommm,vroommm!

*AT THE AIRPORT* We've finally reached the airport surpassing the honking and ponking of the horns*the traffic,grr*. Now,here's a test for me,the ultimate baggage screening. She gently lifts me up and places me on the conveyor belt. In I go as she waits (eagerly) for me. Yay,I've cleared the test and she gives me a promising smile, "I knew you would clear this!". Next,we head to grab a quick bite.Then,the check-in. Pain engulfs me as she hands me over to the luggage hold. I see her for one last time before I'm thrown into my world of rolling stuff. She disappeared.

*THE DESTINATION* Ouch,my back badly hurts,what an awful journey it was! Wait,I see her,I see her coming for me. Her magical touch makes me forget all the pain. The trip begins! 

*THE RETURN* It's time to head back to our place,sigh! I see her as she packs her stuff back into me and this time the dresses have gone up to 12 and I find some new stuff *She loves to shop* and we head to the airport.

*BACK TO THE CLOSET* The last 2 days have been the best days of my life - watching her stress-free,happy and free. With all those memories she engraved in my heart,I happily(no,sadly) return to my closet. Now all I've to do is to wait for Juliet to pull me from here again and until then I would keep cherishing the memories made. With a heavy heart, I bid her a goodbye,Goodbye Juliet!

Cheaper thrills ft. Sia

Namaste!

Sia was right,"I don't need no money,as long as I keep dancing!".Little things definitely make a big difference.Here are some cheaper thrills,let's vroommmmmm!

•  A hot,sultry day with Mr.Sun at his best and a cool zephr of air gushes at your face,ah,wouldn't that be divine?Experienced this a lot,but u must have not noticed it.Do notice this the next time. :)
• If you find your keys in the morning where you left them last night,trust me,you are already successful(I'm not successful :p). But the thrill in finding your lost(or presumed to be lost) things is- priceless.
• A bad day at work,you find yourselves in a mess and then,a hug from your best friend,mess has been half-sorted.
• A pat on your back from your dad,the happiest gesture ever.Make him proud!
• Hunger pangs,hunger pangs!*enter roomie with a bowl of Maggi in his hand*Tadaaa,isn't he your savior? :p
• A night under the stars humming your favourite song*city of stars,are you shining just for me?,this was just a situational hum though :p* ,imagine imagine,wouldn't this be the best feeling ever?                                            
• Meeting your long-distance best friend after a long long time,don't you find yourself complete?
• Petrichor,the earthly smell produced when rain falls on dry ground,I don't need money,as long as I keep smelling it. :p
• This is the best of the lot,knowing that it's weekend time,a time to laze around, snuggle up with a book,chai by the side,ah,bliss!

Done with your cup of chai? Hope these were as refreshing as your chai :)
