Birthday

What is birthday?
With the growing age I learnt different definitions of it.
When I was a kid,
I learnt this day is for relatives, guests, and gifts.
After some years I learnt,
This day is for friends, restaurants, foods, and gifts.
When in college,
It was a day for friends, and movies.
After some more years,
When everybody got busy with their own life,
I realized that it is like any other day.
Nothing special about it,
Except, you were born on this day,
And Facebook!
The social network
That tries to make your day special
By reminding others
About your birthday
your birthday.

Breakthrough

Stuck in a timeline, an event. it came like a turbulence, and went away like a past. We the injured party, still hanging like a pendulum  between  yesterday, today and tomorrow. it took away everything, except the life. Yet asked us to live gracefully. But wait... as legends say...what goes around, comes around. Life never disappoints you, rather, it teaches you lessons. It repeats itself till the lesson is learnt. Today here I am standing,  as strong as I can. With my head held high and even higher.   Life isn't so hard that it could not be understood, it just needs right perspective and patience to be comprehended.

Womanhood

Why can't people behave with me as a woman, that I am. An individual who is experiencing this world in every possible way, as it is. Why I am always judged via the relationship I share? According to my observation, usually people do forget that before sharing any relationship, I am an individual; a woman. this thought of me urged me to conclude that we really don't know how to behave with an individual, because we were never taught to.  Since childhood we were taught to behave with our grand mother, aunt, sister, mother and who not; but an individual. May be that is one of the reasons that women are not safe on the streets.  why meeting random people on streets confuses us.'coz there we are meeting an individual. who is not related to us in any manner, that somehow confuses us because we were never taught/trained to see people as who they are.
