21 to 41

Yes, 41 is a magical number for me as I have almost doubled up my blog posts as compared to last year’s 21. Well, even the name has changed from ‘Little Joys of Life’ to ‘Adding a – of Creativity to Life.’ This year had a lot of happenings in my life. The experiences doubled, the visits doubled and a new phase of life started, but among all these the most important change that came is a new style of writing. Literature became my friend for life as I found a shelter below it to know many interesting things of life. I came to know even there’s something that the birds have to say as they chirp, even the trees have to express their joy when they receive the season’s first rain and express their grief during summers.

I came to know that even sitting idle and alone in a coffee shop can make you write a story. Even a chill wintry night can take your imagination to a new level and you can weave a creative piece of your own. It has been a wonderful blogging year for me. Many interesting posts are yet to come.

Happy New Year 2016 to everybody and my fellow bloggers.

Dear Santa,

    Why You Never Come?

I have been wondering since my childhood. My grandma used to tell me that you come every winter riding on the deers, but I haven’t seen you ever. I have seen you smiling all these years carrying your valise in the red robe, but the urge to meet with you never went away. Even my friends and cousins have been expecting to see you.

Thank you for all the happiness you showered on us in the form of gifts, chocolates and what not. Do you know that we spend an entire day in your memory? We dance and make merry as we eat the fudge cake with a cherry.

I will wait for you and hope you will come someday.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              With Love,

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           A Santa Lover

A Timely 2015

 

 

 

I had a roller coaster ride with time this year and that’s why I want to sum up 2015 in one term – TIME. So, the year started with a full working day on 1^st JANUARY as I along with my colleagues made n number of trips to the various departments of Ministries trying to collect the data from all the super confused IAS officers. The next month went as usual without a valentine, followed by a colorless MARCH as all the friends flew to their hometown to celebrate the festival of colors.

APRIL started a new beginning in my life thus introducing a sweet valentine for the rest of februaries of my life. Her sweet and tender voice helped me to find the romantic me and I found a new meaning to life. MAY opened the door to happiness as I finally met with her, breaking the boundaries of distance. Is the wait so exciting? Is this what happens in love? I found the answers as I have been searching for them since the last 27 years. I witnessed TIME running for the first time bringing a fresh feeling of happiness in life. Oh! Time I wish you could replay you as I returned to the workplace with all sweet memories and a little pain in my heart, the pain of missing her.

JULY and AUGUST proved to be the most strenuous. ‘Hey! Wait wait time I cannot catch you. Is this day or night? When did the sun rise and when did it go down?’ Sorry man, I am caught in the midst of files in a Govt. department proofreading financial documents with no end time and short deadlines.

‘Ready, steady, Po!’ Time came and shouted in my ears as I woke up one fine morning In OCTOBER with the message of ‘It’s time to tie the knot,’ the next thought? No, it’s was not a thought, it was the title song of Bhaag Milkha Bhaag that constantly played in my head. It was not about tying the knot, but tying up everything as I was about to shift to my hometown leaving the city where I had spent 5 glorious years.  I was happy and emotional, but couldn’t help it as time again knocked me hard at my back.

However, it didn’t remain for long as I got hitched with a wonderful person. NOVEMBER started well as again in no TIME, I appeared for many interviews and even got a job in the City of Joys. Since then, how TIME is flying by I have no idea.  Now that DECEMBER is here I am spending a wonderful time with my family.

Thank You TIME for making 2015 full of surprises. I will cherish the moments forever………..

 

The Star Power is With You Now, so #AwakenYourForce

You wake up to the sound of a fighter plane that just rushed past you. There is silence in your dark room.You see Darth Vader standing in front of you. Your eyes fall on his hand, as he holds a 39.62cm square sized thing that is glowing with red backlit keys. The dark side graphics of that thing create an inner force inside you and you move forward.

Vader leaps forward and attacks you with his lightsaber. You, do a backflip and escape the stealth attack. An inner force wakes you up with vengeance and you discover that square sized thing as the all new HP StarWars Special Edition Notebook in Vader’s other hand.

You hit Vader on his left foot, place a mean punch on his head. Vader loses his focus for a second and you get hold of the special edition notebook. The anti-glare WLED-backlit blur the eyes of Vader and he puts down his foot infront of you saying, ‘Bravo! You have #AwakenYourForce,’ and hence the HP StarWars Special Edition Notebook is now yours. 

The Great Woes of the Shoes

A long queue of shoes is waiting at the bus stand. A few minutes later, the bus arrives. The queue breaks and the feet struggle to get the first seat. While few of them rest comfortably, most of them struggle to find a seat and then starts the woes of the shoes.

S1: Move, move. I can’t breath

S2: What to do? Tell him, it’s not my wish

S1: Gosh! He has lost his senses and doesn’t know where to stand?

S2: Here comes another. It’s dirty and stinky man

S1: And doesn’t know where to stand

S2: I came all polished and shiny. Now look at me. I’m all dirty

S1: Never mind bro. This is our everyday woe.

S2: Hey! Did you see that curvy one that just got up now

S1: Ya man! She is damn……….

S2: Woooo she is coming near us

S1: Move! Move! am still stain free and clear off the dust

S1: But that dirty and stinky one is approaching towards me faster than her. Wait man I need to impress her first. Err!!!!!! You dirty fool, you made my day bad

S2: Hahaha! She didn’t even give a damn to you and went passed without giving a sigh

S1: You were right bro. We should never mind. This is our everyday woe.

Who’s She?

The Porche arrives

With the Chauffer all dressed

In crisp white Girgio Armani

She steps outside, pretentiously

Who’s She?

Zara covers her up

Prada lifts her up

She flaunts Gucci on her left hand

As she looks behind her Oakleys with content  

Who’s She?

 Avon marks her lips hot

Mac glows her face

Versace spreads the fragrance

Adding a grandeur to her grace

Who’s She?

iPhone, iPad and Air Pad

She keeps on scrolling

The chats and updating status

On social media

And many other chats

Who’s She?

She’s all in brands

Who thinks all these make her look grand
