The apple of the eye.

" The realism of our existence has been overshadowed by the curtain of the need to exist"
 
The sun rises and sets in, and in between them a day has passed, this continues on and on and a week passes, this week in turn now changes to months and to years. Thus a percent of our mere existence is gone.
Hearing the alarm our day starts, watching the hands tick, it slogs and ends in a mechanical flow of the pendulum. This is what, is the meaning of life to many, I am not saying all but most... 


You might remember that during our initial times, the days when we were all kids, we had interests, we liked certain things and practised them amidst our busy schedule, and that is what kept us from slogging off. 
Each interest used to be different from the other, each unique in their own way. 

I remember, my interest was in collecting pen refills ( though used) ,I know it's not that cool, as to collecting stamps or insects, but still .. I had a variety of refills- gel, dot, parker, German and many more .First I used to count them but then gradually lost that count.. I know you must be wondering " What's there in a refill, to collect" but I honestly don't know the answer, I only can tell that I used to have a really happy feeling while I collected those .And then as usual life happened , and gradually that hobby got lost somewhere in the depts of time. 


The other day, while cleaning, I found some remnants of my long lost interest, that's the reason I took to this post.. Well I am sure some of you must have been in the same situation.. 


So why not start a fresh.. and start to live those interests once again amongst our busy schedule.Why not live those long lost hobby again that were once " The Apple of our Eye".

Live and let live

" They tell you to be yourself and then they judge you" It was just a few days back that while scrolling down the pages of my social media feeds, I came across a post, where a mother staying in Toronto, wrote about how her son became the prey of school bullyism ,which even got his life. The post was in fact a request which she had made to the school authorities regarding their cooperation.  The school authorities hadn't cooperated as they thought it might degrade their reputation..such was their attitude towards a student who studied at their school..  You must have heard about the story of " Thirteen reasons why" ( though there's no offence in not knowing about it). It's not a story of only Hannah Baker or of some high school student but its way more than that. Its a story of how the present society works. It's a story that says: " They tell you to be yourself and then they judge you". "Bullyism" The word seems so lucid to spell,...

Lets not forget, before its too late!!!

As we move on with life, we find many people surrounding us, accompanying us as we trudge on the belts of the treadmill.  Some of these people may be with you or may be reaching out to you, through different means. - but that's not important. What's important is the relationship that we share with them.  As we start our day, we see them performing their own duties. It may be the man selling milk or newspaper to our doors, or the house maid doing all the odd chores or  our nearby neighbour playing his idiotic loud music..or maybe our roommate, which whom we sometimes end quarreling. They can be anyone, who has an effect to our lives, and here lies the irony , having them we get so much carried away that we become completely ignorant of their existence and get used to, we sometimes completely neglect their importance, and I guess that's natural, after we all have a very complicated life to handle and as one says " Life happens " - it does really happen, ways cross ...
