About Me

No not their fault For hard, they have always tried But such an iceberg I am.Alas! Only one-tenth of me can be seen Even that is deterring rough and hard Forget the ninth-tenth under the sea

TRUST

Once upon a time there were three brothers viz.Certain,Sure and Definite.They were the proud descendents of one of the most famous royal families of Trust.
Certain was a doting husband to Certainty and Sure was the soulmate of Surety.Definite being the youngest was still in search of his ladylove. He was the most pampered and loved one.

With mutual understanding and cooperation they were doing well and had a nice reputation among people.A mention of anyone of their names would bring smile to people's face and they would brim with assurance.Such was their repertoire.And thus they were thriving well and bringing honour to their ancestors.

But then time never allows anything else to be consistent except itself and success is always accompanied by rivals and enemies. So while this Trust family was busy in their family business of providing assurance to people and happy in the family bliss...the world around them had changed and clouds of doom have surrounded them.The first one who came into the clutches of devil was the youngest and the most loved one..Definite.He was,for quite sometime,ignoring the ominous presence of his envious arch rival, Indefinite,may be out of pride and overconfidence. So Indefinite knowing this first exploited Definite's weakness for flattery and with other contritions lured him into bad company Definite fell prey to the charms of easy life ,left his home,totally distanced himself from his brothers so much so as to rechristened himself as Most Probable.He lost even this name and was disgraced to Maybe.His conditions so deteriorated that people started calling him God knows...and finally he became a servant to Indefinite.

While Definite was going through all this deterioration even his brothers were not spared. Stressed and burdened by work Certain felt his life had become monotonous and thats when this enchanting woman Uncrtainty came into his life.She was eyeing him since he married Certainty because she was her archrival .So Uncertainty lured Certain into cheap pleasures of disgraced life and under her bewitched charms he threw Certainty out of his house.Disgraced and dejected she went into obscurity and now no one knows her whereabouts.Certain lost all his sheen and respect but it was too late when he realised how meaningless he was without Certainty. Now he is just a shaodw of himself and Uncertainty rules over him.

Now the onus of continuing the family business fell on Sure and he got too busy to even return home for many many days.Surety was dismal without him.She tried hard to keep pace with her husband's life but was completely laid back...even Sure started getting irritated with her wife's bothering for he was too engrossed in work.So dejected and lonely Surety fell into bouts of depression, fever,frenzy etc. But there was no one to take care of her.Some strange kind of disease took over her mental state and she lost her mental balance.Sure was so busy that it was through people that he came to know that Surety isn't the same anymore but it was too late and he had lost her to lunacy . Overwhelmed with grief Sure renounced all work and till date is trying to bring Surety back to health.

So that is how the debacle of Trust family took place and so the world is so full of deceit,uncertainty and distrust.Its tragic but its fact that relationships are devoid of trust and assurance of faithfulness. At present Definite lives as God knows and is a servant of Indefinite,Certain is without Certainty,Sure's Surety is lunatic and he cannot be trusted again.So trust at your own risk.

Road and I


Road and I

When I started,
The road challenged me,
The length of it, rebuked me.

Yet I started,
And the road wasn't pleased.
Its length, my strength, never ceased.

It's time, I started.
Though I haven't reached,
But a comraderie, with Road I'ave achieved.

Bhojpur trip

Yesterday i along with five friends of mine had gone to Bhojpur.......It is around 28 Km from BHEL township Bhopal...straight on Hoshngabad road. Its famous for the highest shivlinga.....that is 22 ft high......We had gone on our bikes and the journey to the temple was wonderful..we passed through farms...then there were short hills by our side......the ups and downs of the roads.....the sights of the country side.....and all this in pleasant sunlight....was a mesmerising journey. Through all this fun we reached the famous Bhojpur temple....photography wasnt allowed inside the premises so we took some pics from far away that captures the view of temple...But then its not enough to imagine the grandeur and magnificence of the 22 ft high shivling....it seems the real indicator of the valour and power of lord shiva...one needs to go and see it onself.....and fill it in ones eyes....to live with it forever. We sat for long in the peaceful premises for the temple and then moved to search for the caves of goddess Parvati near and carried on our phots shoots of the natural scenery available in abundance...
On the way we found certain areas enclosed in fence but couldnt figure out why it was so...looked at them for a long time but still nothing came out from diff guesses..well we went on further to reach a small brook..See the bird's view of it


The voice of water flowing was so appealing we ran down to splash and have fun in the lovely river that seemed full of fun and glee flowing at its own will calm and quite somtimes then suddenly with a force as if bursting out with laughter while playing with the rocks in its way....It was lovely and refreshing...rejuvenating all of us.....we found appropriate rocks to sit on and spend around 2 hours playing with the water before taking the boat to cross the river for the cave temple of goddess Parvati

we visited the temple and while returning saw a rare flower there, its called passion flower.....there we spent some time having tea and then finally returned back to the brook......the brook was calling us again but then we had already surpassed the time limit we had planned so with a thought that we will come back again, left for Bhopal.....Yet before leaving we managed to find out that those enclosed region were the places where the map of Bhojpur temple was drawn in the rocks first...we managed to see some lines too.....Before I end up do have a look at the passion flower....



Now that we have returned back it feels still so much is left to be seen....want to move out again....i wish I could live like a wanderer exploring the world and sitting in wherever i find peace.....Journey will continue

You can see only what I'll show

You can see only whatI'll show
Yet people claim they know me inside
What if I've told all lies
And never showed you my dark side
Will you still be there
To see me through thick and thin
Will you still walk with me
When you'll know 'am rotten in
Will you still talk to me
When I wont be able to hear
Will you still listen to me
When my voice wont reach your ear
Even amongst loved ones
I've always feared such apprehensions
You may answer yes to all these
Still they remain unanswered questions
