You will Stand Alone.



True when I hear that “You come alone in this world and go alone from this world”. And there is something else in between of this arrival and departure and that is “Staying”. I am surrounded by masses of people some phony and some real good souls (I feel they are good). In spite of bordered with good souls I feel a person is all alone at the end of the day. There were times when I needed a hand to hold me and I got several hands to hold me but when I wanted those hands to walk with me, none of them did. Every individual has his/her own limitations in walking along with the hands they hold saying that “they are with us”. But actually it is just a piece of word. Hands can hold us, lift us but they never come and walk with us. Each and every errand from top to bottom is to be done by us all alone. I have encountered and realized huge difference in our so called well-wishers saying and doing. A lot is said and nothing is done BUT it has given me something. It has given me a LESSON, a lesson which says that “An individual is one single identity and is alone in this big world”. At times I suspect that do I really need those hands and most of the times I get an answer “NO”. I believe in packing bags and walking towards my set Goal without looking for a hand to help me achieve it. And what is the need of a third hand when we have two of our own. :-)

Now I agree when my lord says “though a person is encircled by innumerable relations, he is still alone in this world to realize his destiny”. Even our own shadow leaves us sometimes. The early we understand this the early we will become mature to understand Life.

Every single moment is teaching a lesson which I feel is a blessing of lord giving immense satisfaction.

Change but for what?


I always hear people saying or rather complaining that change is the law of nature. I am saying here “complaining” because I believe that they keep chanting this mantra but somehow somewhere inside it takes hell out of them to accept this. Change profession and that is justified, why? because it is bringing in growth, advancement and few extra pounds too. Change your place of abode and that is justified, why? because it is a way in for sophisticated and erudite folks. Change your hair style, change your way of your attire, change your vehicle to a super hot S.U.V., change your mobile phones to some extra good looking sets. Change any acquisitive thing for good. But one thing a human should not change is “Soul”. When one changes his soul, he has changed his nature, he has changed his love for others and ultimately his relationships, his relationship with God and with his loved ones, who are always there standing behind him lending out arms of love. This change draws one apart from his people and one day it leaves him alone in this colossal world. And what good can one encounter by changing his heart for people?? What good can one encounter by leaving behind his nearest and dearest ones?? What good can one come across by leaving his family and staying all alone??

I believe in change but Change of materialistic things and not of pious feelings or our earnest desire. I pray to my lord Sai to bring in a change in me to be more humble, grounded, generous, peaceful and most of all Loving my valued relationships.
