the colorful night..

The sun was setting in...

The skies got ready to spread its blanket of darkness..the September night was still cool..sending gentle breeze occasionally...making the evening even more beautiful...

The lane was deserted..and dark..except for the dim light from nearby shops and the brightly lit full moon...

Men and buildings alike were reduced to mere black silhouettes....

The color was missing...

Everything was black n grey...

Amidst the calm and eeriness, two hearts created a flutter...

For the first time..black seemed colorful....

They were walking along..silence forming a barrier between the two. neither knew wot to say...

The trees swayed happily...as if welcoming them...

He looked at her..as she shoved the tufts of hair falling on her face...

She looked beautiful...

He felt so lucky to have her beside him..

She blushed deep red..as if reading his mind., a sweet curve appearing on her lips..
"AAaah! this was the smile dat bowled me over! " he smiled to himself...

Only their minds talked...

Nothing happened for a while...


Then his hand brushed hers..and a torrent of emotions ran thru them..

Her heart skipped a beat...

While he was thinking how to silence the silence..she was engulfed ..with fear,confusion,some sort of happiness, exhilaration.....it was all mixed...

She looked at him from the corner of her eyes...

He was handsome. she was so fond of him...she had been eagerly waiting for this day.And when it finally did arrive,she was tensed...A fury of thoughts paralysed her " Am i doin right?? Will this hav a happy ending? Is this true...??"

He ventured...

"you dint answer my question"

"which question??",she feigned ignorance...

hmm..

He took her hand in his...

"what are u doin??" she exclaimed..aghast!

"I want to hold your hand...life long.."

She looked at him affectionately. His eyes reflected deep love..his earnest face showed how much he wanted her...his broad shoulders promised her protection..and strong arms effused warmth...

Her hand was still in his...

"U dint answer me..i am waiting " he reminded her..

"Do i still hav to answer u?? " she replied..sweetly...

He clasped her hand even more tightly..lest she would change her mind.

Their shadows merged..and they melted into darkness...

pursuit of happiness...

Good things often come in small packages.small things make simple moments greater n sweeter.A sweet smile, a gentle touch,a discrete wink....all these hardly last for a second ,but the happiness n warmth they spread around r simply matchless.
The way u look at things decides how happy u r.If u vie 4 things which u dont have or u cannot have,u can never b happy.

I lead a happy n contended life.I might not have enjoyed the flamboyant freshers' party,but i cherish the moment all our family members got together 4 dinner. even the arduous bus journey brings a moment of delight.It may annoy me,disgust me 4 a while, but when i ultimately alight from the bus,I feel happy that its over.
My joy knows no bounds when my 3-yr old neighbour flashes her scintillating smile.I sense some kind of overwhelming "apnaapan"( i culdnt get the right word)spurging from inside when she comes trotting 2 me...these may seem insignificant,but surely they transform 2 bcome abstract artifacts n remain afresh up to eternity...just like a word of gratitude ,a warm handshake, an affectionate pat......

One maynot find a pool of water interesting,but one can always experience the magicof the mystic dewdrops on leaflets.

the few hrs i spend with my cousins...those splendid times when i pulled my friends' legs,regaling them with jokes....my father's absent-minded theatrics(n also mine),my granny's dal chawal,n of course eating panipuri on the roadside...all these form my fun-filled happier moments.I never yearned 4 a better life.

of course there r challenges,in every body's lives. life is like a rose. u will meet thorns along the way,but if u have faith and courage ,u will eventually move beyond the thorns into the glory of the flower...there is a brighter side 2 the darkest situation.Only u should have the courage 2 look 4 it.

When u r contended, even the smallest of small things make u happy.

Dont let life bypass u in your pursuit of goals...live ur life....
i am living mine ....

keep smiling......

hyd to kurnool

I was waiting with dad for the train to arrive.
everything was planned. I was to join Meena and her family at malakpet station. She wud tell me where they wer seated as soon as they settled down at kachiguda so that i cud catch them easily.

but...life is wot happens when u are busy making plans....
dat day..all hell broke loose...

" Hi Sampu! we are in the third bogie re..make it fast! !"

the train had started frm kachiguda.I had to hurry...
but..where's dad??
oh shit...where the hell is he??
"ok saab! theek hai...."
aaaah ! der he was..chattering away happily in his dabba mobile....

"DAAaaad!!!come sooon..chalooo!!! "
by the time he gathered why i was acting hysterically...the train thundered past us! at full speed!

i grabbed my dad's hand and we ran ..at top speed!!
the whole platform was in a frenzy. the train would stop for only 2 min and that was enough to put people on their toes.


we worked our way through the crowd ..puffing and panting! had a hard time dodging people...sometimes bumping into them , inviting stern glares.
we kept running...the engine kept evading us...the more we ran,the more serpentine the train seemed. everybody was running! it was jus lik a marathon!!

poor dad!

then the horn sounded!!
After a hurried "bye" , i got into a coach ,wid a big bag giving me company..phew!
i moved ahead...hoping to get into the adjacent coach.but as luck wud have it..der was no connecting door!Damn it!

This stupid bag! y is this soo big ! i am unable to carry myself in this crowd and this addition to my grievances..
the train hadnt started yet.....
shall i get down and get into the next bogie? will i be able to make it?? I had to act fast!!
I got down..my heart beating faster...
i hopped into the next compartment...

thank god! der was the connecting door!

i moved ahead...clumsily...constantly worried that my bag would hit some unfortunate head. i trotted till i came to an end.

i stood near the door..the cool breeze providing me relief.i was too lazy to find a place for myself.
TRING !! TRING!! my mobile rang.
"Beta ! how r u?? u are safe na! have u met ur friend?? sorry beta..all this because i insisted on going to malakpet instead of kachiguda"
"keep quiet dad ! its so thrilling! i should actually thank you :) "


quite a few guys wer standing...sum of them students. They were a pleasant sight to watch ..so handsome..so enthralling.

ting! ting! SMS!!
"wot dng?? got seat aa? "
it was meena...
"No re..at no cost i am going to miss a treat to my eyes! "
"ha ha..bechare" was the non-chalant reply i got. hmm..jealous..hehe

time passed off peacefully....except for the two more bogie jumpings i had to do before i finally caught up wid them.

the train halted at yet another station..

A pair of feet and a pair of eyes were searching frantically for someone..ya ya..they were mine.
Der they wer!!!
ha hahaaaa!!!

it was so cramped!!..meena was actually crouching on the upper berth.half bent..with luggages all around her!!
Around 20 people shared the same compartment!!

i smiled to myself..
my position was better....
