Why time is so important?
Past defines our future, and future defines our present,
So, is everything controlled by the past?
What is the past?
Every single moment passing in the present?!
Perhaps, hence it is said,
Today is the Day.
But what if you couldn’t grab the opportunity
Or sense the importance?
Once it is a past, always a past.
And then we are left with what if…
Which story would you like to share
What if… or how? The choice is yours.
Running away from reality
Does it really help to run away from reality?
Or it simply increases the complexity?
The complex universe, with complex human nature
What does it take to make humans mature?
Why people can’t have the clarity in their mind
The clarity that could help to define priority in their life
Past, Present, Future repeat
Every time we are set to compete
Compete with whom? With you, society, nation, continent?
Suddenly someday, there might appear an alien
How quickly can we change our boundaries and widen the definition?
Only if we know that we have changing conceptions
With time, people and surroundings; you will change
But can you change the heart before it turns out to be strange?
You Grow Up
You grow up the day you realise this world is not fair and equal
You grow up when you stop explaining yourself
The only person, you feel you are answerable to is you
And you feel that no one can understand what it is like to be you
You grow up when you orient yourself towards the larger goals
And that day you successfully escape yourself from the cage of souls
The day you will realise this might be any day in your life
But indeed that day you would have solved the part of your mysterious life
Oh! This mystery,
This mystery is the fuel to your engine of life
Who would be happy to act their whole life?
But sometimes the engine runs out of fuel
And sometimes even the fuel can’t make the engine run
That day you realise that you have grown up
Trying to leave the engine and to climb the ladder up
Hope your cells be with you till the last moment
Who knows, one day you might achieve the Everest
It's all up there in the mind
It seems like a flickering light,
Catching the attention of the wandering mind
All that is stable will remain stable,
And things in motion may go perpetual
So the stable part goes unnoticed,
And the uncertain one gathers the attention
Here is the trap, playing with the mind,
After all, the mind decides what to mind
It’s a kind of loop, which one shouldn’t overlook,
Cause the key lies there, providing access to the safe door
Add, edit, and erase; use these functions timely,
The prominent example of mind acting wisely
World of Assumptions
People form opinions about you,
Some of which are totally opposite to the real you
When they tell you those things right in front of you
(At least that is one good thing here )
You might actually start thinking about those too
But wait, does it really worth it?
To ask your brain to lose its energy, to analyze and to come up with a clarification…
Particularly, when the world loves to believe in its own assumption
The wiser you become, the lesser questions you ask and the shorter explanations you give
After all, you cannot understand a person completely, having interactions a few
Well, I am going to try it to the best of my capacity
Feel free to do so as per your ability
Suggestion leads to Creation
Whatever you can imagine, you can make it possible
It comes later to think whether it is feasible
Small or big; things are relative
Factor that matters is how much you are creative
Some critical things are genuinely tender
Your one suggestion can create a wonder
Flourish your ideas and do present them
Who knows the whole world is looking for the same
Well, we all know the laws of inertia and energy
Let them flow, modify and shape rather than worry
Thousand failed experiments do not guarantee you the next
However, the one that succeeds will compensate for the rest
Beautiful world is waiting for you
Theory of relativity is a gift to us,
Not only because of its science but also because of its relevance
Being grateful for every small thing is an amazing feeling
It is only lack of something make you able that seeing
Sharing those experiences with others is not that easy
It requires strength, courage, and environment that is cosy
The more you practice it becomes your habit
Who knows whether it’s yours or someone else’s tactic?
I know it’s difficult to erase those imprints and start a new fresh
But one needs to do it to come out of that mesh
To identify the properties of substance we do experiments
So experimenting isn’t bad, what important is what you learn from them
Rebel is not easy, never easy it has been
You are the example to show the world what it means
It’s difficult to accept things which are not meant to happen
But once they occur do we have another option?
Giving happiness is more blissful than gaining it
Only when you do that you will realize this
Anything different is always challenging
It depends on your capacity to believe in
The more you experience the wiser you become
But don’t be so hard on yourself because something else is yet to come
Nurture your Nature
It’s a never ending process..
Calculating the statistics
Forecasting the weather
Figuring out patterns
Guessing the next ones
No matter how much
I read the information
Study the cases
Do the experiments
You never fail to surprise me
That calm surface of water hiding a whirlpool
Mundane tides resulting into Tsunami
Stable land cracking into parts
Breezing air leading to cyclone
All of these are vivid indicators
You are simply unpredictable
With patterns, nature, results and so on
Riding everywhere with surprise mode on
And here I am, still keeping the hope alive
Wishing that someday I will get them right
Calculations, patterns, guesses and probabilities
And will take care of everything in vicinities
Nurture your Nature
Around and surround
Leaves of tree
Leaves of life
World Mental Health Day
Do we really live or we play roles?
Do we really breath or we just inhale and exhale the oxygen?
Well, everyone knows the answer.
Some live for someone/ for something/ for “people”
And a few manage to live for themselves.
The only difference is that ‘themselves’ play their roles unknowingly
While others do the same knowingly.
Acting is an art to be mastered.
Only the Masters know that it’s an art to live.
Everyone has a different strategy for portraying their characters.
Algorithm of which changes often by the chapter.
Some manage to create a masterpiece.
Some just think of making it.
Some are so unfortunate that they don’t even think of it.
And no one knows what the rest ones do with it.
Ensure that you won’t forget yourself while trying so hard to play the role
Give yourself time to come out of that and live your life solely for soul.
Reactants and People
I have found an analogy between reactants of chemical reactions and people.
Suppose primary reactant as a person and other reactants as surroundings.
One reactant has to come in contact with the other, under certain conditions, then only the reaction happens and products get generated. Similarly, a person can change himself or herself if he or she interacts with the surroundings. If a person doesn’t do anything or doesn’t let the environment impact her then perhaps she will never change. This might results in positive or in negative way.
If we just place the reactant in the vicinity of others but never let them get mixed with each other then nothing will happen. Same applies in real life scenario, if we have a particular exposure but if we don’t make any use of it then nothing will change.
Everything is internal. It has to come from within.
While saying so, I am aware of the fact that if catalysts are present there, they will help to speed up the processes, in both the cases. But the rest depends on the primary reactant and the person himself.
React. Interact. Create Wonders.
Pendulum and Emotions
When you are a science lover as well as a student of emotional behavior, you find something such as ‘Correlation between ‘Pendulum and Emotions’.
So here we go…
This theory suggests that in our childhood we have extreme emotions, both positive and negative. As we grow up we get to know their many forms and different intensity levels. So, as time goes by our extremities get reduced and we try to become more stable. (This does not at all mean that we celebrate our life less than we used to do before but it just means that we become more aware of ups and downs.)
One side of pendulum swing represents positive emotions and the other one showcases the negative emotions. Potential energy of pendulum depicts the nature of oneself while the kinetic energy represents external factors. (Here, PE and KE are metaphoric concepts, however they are not supposed to be interlinked literally.)
And when one reaches to the last breath there remains no positive or negative emotion but a neutral one.
Conversation
How could one know, what do you want
When you don’t say, what do you chant
Directly or indirectly, but you should say
Through which we can find the way
How does one can know, when you don’t show
What are you going through, and why do you bow
There should be some dialogue or even a monologue will work
Because the conversation will help you to quirk
Believe in it and be strong
Don’t worry, if at all it goes wrong
After all, life is all about taking risks
Without actions, will there exist winners list?
Everyone is Emotional
Deep down there everyone is emotional
It just disappears when you stop responding to your emotions
Except few, there is a limit for everything
When it gets crossed then the void starts appearing
When you are sensitive to the outside world
Please don’t forget to nurture your inside world
I know it’s not easy, however not impossible too
Especially when you have a lot of things to do
Each individual has different elasticity
Stretched beyond that leaves permanent deformity
Be aware of your limit & your elasticity
After all, your strength is your responsibility.
My Dear Mathematics
Who said mathematics is rarely used in day to day life
When Permutation and Combination play vital role in our life
It is important, whom do we meet and in which sequence
That defines our path among the numerous out there at fence
Certain Set of thoughts having different Subsets changes many equations
Who knows which ‘Inclusive’ and which ‘Exclusive’ will change the situation
After all, Probability and Ratio help us in making decisions
Where ‘Componendo’ and ‘Dividendo’ aid in calculations
Once you borrow something, you can never return it with same rate
Even if you apply interest, the time has shifted
Binary, Decimal, Octal and Hexa; they all say the same in different languages
Isn’t it similar when it comes to understanding people who speak different languages?
Discipline
It’s all about discipline
Discipline of your nature
Discipline of your principles
Discipline of your values
No matter how far you are from your destination
Discipline is something on which you can rely on
No matter how hard it seems to appear
Discipline is something which will make it easier
Temptations will always try to drive you in different directions
Discipline will help you to keep yourself on track
There might be some shortcuts to reach to your destination
But remember, shortcuts exist for short time
There is a difference between hard work and smart work
However the work is inevitable in both cases
Peace: Everyone's Responsibility
Some are thinking about and planning their future
While some don’t even have the idea of what will happen the next moment
What kind of uncertainty is to be worried and prioritized
Relations, Job, Health or Life?
In few parts of the world people are safe, secured and enjoying their lives
While in few parts, people are concerned about their own lives
What kind of trauma they might be going through when they have to face life threatening situations day in and day out
Do they have any future to plan out?
What I wonder is, the people who create such situations
Don’t they belong to the same world which we all care?
Who gives them right to take away lives
Haven’t they learnt in the school that never take away which you can’t give back?
This needs to be stopped
Peace needs to be maintained
It is responsibility of all of us
Peace Peace Peace
What is true?
I heard that people change over the time,
So do the situations & so do the emotions
Sometimes few days seem like a year
And sometimes an entire year seems like few days
Sometimes situations don’t allow us to express our emotions
And sometimes emotions hold us back from altering the situations
Still some situations help us to let the emotions flow
And emotions help us to transform the situations
Some people will never change and some will,
Like every now & then
Improving self is one thing
And being adamant is another wing
So finally what is true
People, Time, Situations or Emotions?
Life is like a treasure hunt
Life is like a treasure hunt
With the hidden places of WH questions
What, when, why, how, where and who
Whole life revolves around these, then & now
It is easy to find something outside
If you have found the one who is inside
The journey is different for each & every individual
And the path seems to be not so casual
May all of us gather the strength to travel this path
With the same innocence with which we start
Hope everyone will win this game
In the history of the world they will carve their names

The journey started towards AP from all around the world
With adventurous, hopeful and beautiful souls
Beginning with the quiet sessions which bring in reflections
We were slowly moving towards more constructive transformations
As we proceed to understand self and others
We took into consideration responsibilities & expectations
Theories, models, stories, and examples
Expanded our knowledge beyond the horizons
Our ideal, theoretical, practical & conceptual world
Intensive simulations revealed the ‘Real’ world
To come out of something we need to pass through it
Trauma healing sessions channelized it
Building peace is more complex than it seems
And still, go for it because that’s how it is
Good or bad, every story has an end
The Sun is always waiting for us on the other end
Share the words, share the knowledge
Together we can achieve beyond our courage
Never forget the grounds, where you have come from
Help others to bring their dreams to a real form
Building the trust, caring for others; learning it through drama
Sometimes in life, we need to put a comma
No matter how much we wish, time never stops
I think it’s a great example that the show must go on
Now I know, why are you so
Now I know, why are you so
Knowing the background, the history, and the context
Now I can understand the way you behave
Values which are inculcated & imbibed in your childhood
Come out as reflection when you are turning to an adulthood
The emotions, the feelings and the affection you have experienced
Are the gateways of your personality you have nurtured
It doesn’t matter, physical or mental
Boundaries often bound the people,
Transcend the boundaries, travel around the world
You will get to know that being human is bold
Enjoy this journey you are assigned to
No one knows when & where you will get to meet to
Love, Respect, Honesty, Hope
With the help of these, everything we can cope
Long Distance Friendship
You will never know until you experience it
You will never know unless you go through it
Displacement matters more than distance in science
And the same is true with the human conscience
No matter how long it takes to meet the person
It just feels like yesterday, in memories accordance
Vivid impressions of the little things that we do together
Secure the distinct place in my mind palace forever
Collecting the gifts all the year and finally giving those to you when you are here
It’s like delivering a song of which music pieces are played on a synthesizer
These music pieces possess the potential to make a beautiful song
Because I know we share the special bond
I know, you will hold me back & correct me whenever I go wrong
It doesn’t matter how frequently and how much we talk
We know that we are and will always be there for each other whenever we want
Memories spread different colours on the horizon reflecting a rainbow
I pray that in a similar way, every day, our friendship will grow
It's not so easy, its not so difficult
It’s not so easy, it’s not so difficult
Dwelling in dilemmas
Dreaming about goals
Dying to pursue passion
Dealing with difficulties
Disciplined to follow rules
Dedicated towards work

Accepting the reality
Analysing the situations
Admitting the truth
Administrating the system
It’s not so easy, it’s not so difficult

To live a content life
To be the best version of you
To enjoy each moment
