कधी वाटते....


कधी वाटते उडून जावे दूर देशी,
जिथे असेल आनंद दाही दिशी. 
 कधी वाटते हरवावे गरदीत तरी, 
 हळूच लपवत डोळ्यातल्या सरी.
 कधी वाटते असावे जवळी कोणी आपले,
 ज्याच्या मिठीत  वाटेल दुःख सारे संपले.
 कधी वाटते रहावे एकटे, नको भावना!
 सोबती असून ही कोणी, नको त्या वेदना!

The Charity Ride



The Wikipedia meaning of charity “The practice of charity means the voluntary giving of help to those in need, as a humanitarian act. The word humanitarian is important. Means showing ethics of kindness, benevolence and sympathy towards another human.


A week ago I took an auto riskshaw to my office like I do every day. As soon as I sat inside I immediately felt the difference. The passenger seat and the driver seat were divided by a transparent sheet with compartments on it. And what I saw was a big print out saying “Social library”. It had 9 compartments which had newspapers for the passengers to read while they reach their destination. I was stunned. To add to my surprise there was a Limca Book of Records Certificate” hanging which said “Santosh Gaikwad, has been awarded by the Limca Book of records for providing  free rides to more than 20,000 physically challenged commuters in his vehicle since 2004”. I couldn’t believe what my eyes were reading. I thought of picking up a newspaper for myself and then realized that there were some more quotes saying “Quit Alcohol”, “Save the girl child”, “Quit smoking” and “Stop HIV Aids”.


I was lost in thoughts .I thought if an Auto driver can think and do so much for the society then why can’t other people? People like me and other working professionals who earn much better and also who lead a good life.  

Soon after reaching office I started researching about the Auto driver. His inspiration to help people was his grandmother’s cancer. He saw the struggle she faced when her leg was cut off by a surgical operation due to her disease.


Here is the link of Mr. Santosh Gaikwad’s story.

My Mom The Strongest



Mom, she is an inspiration to the hundreds and thousands of students she has taught till date and would continue inspiring more and more youngsters. She is truly an Inspiration for all the single mothers, women who feel they can’t do great in big cities coming from small towns. She is my icon. She has immense word power that can melt one’s heart. Splendid with enormous skills she has proven to galvanize my life with the principles she wants me to inhale.


My life support, my mom. She is the one whom I consider the toughest person in this world. She hails from a small village named Karajgoan, Maharashtra. But she works no less than a super model or any big entrepreneur. The dedication towards family and her work is stupendous. She is a dreamer… a dreamer who achieves them all. She has inculcated the same things in me and my brother. She is a learner who doesn’t stop or give up at any situation. She is the strong base of our family yet never has been a demanding person. She has been a giver for her entire life and that’s what gives her happiness. She has always taught us to give and accept people and things as they come.


Her life story comes with countless sacrifices and middle grounds. She has been working her life with a mission. Mission, to see her children mold into beautiful humans. Even today she is on a mission where numerous children consider her their teacher and guide for the righteous path. She has always devoted herself for her family and children. She is melting down like a candle with each passing day shedding her youth and beauty to create beautiful human beings. With all the grey shades of life she has evolved into a person who takes life’s spin as a joy ride.


Every mother is special and unique in her own ways.  Mom, you have given me the best life ever. I want to be exactly like you. The way you dress up, the way you smile at all times and the way you love me and brother. This is just a small note about my icon…. my life… my Mom.
A latest Picture of me and Mom.


I want you to be with me, forever and ever, guiding me always and letting me know that no one can love and care for me like the way you do.

HEARTACHE





 Your heart is about to break
                                                    When you know things aren’t so great

                                                     Even if suffering is too much to take
                                                  Yet you make an effort to stand straight


                                               Fight and stand for yourself, to do your best

                                                This is the time for your own people to test

                                                   For they surely will leave you in stress
                                       As it’s only you who can fade away the HEARTACHE.
