Rain of Hope.. (Had Scribbled some 5 years back)

I had just got down from my company bus and looked up into the sky with a sigh.

I could see the approaching dark clouds and lightening around. Before, I could think of my escape it had started to rain...

I skipped across the small puddles and took a shelter under the roof of a closed shop. As soon as, I managed to get a standing space I could see a sudden cloud burst and it started pouring as if there is no end to this torrent.

The darkness had started gobbling up the bleak rays of setting sun, until It completely resembled a pitch dark moment filled with thunder and lightning. I was shivering with the cold wet breeze and sudden uproar by the thunders would send a horrendous expression on my pale face. Standing there for more than 20mins, I got used to the lashing rain and the deafening thunders beating every second.
It seemed dark than usual and I could see a lamp across the street struggling to wake up and would go on and off giving itself away under the force of nature.

Under this flickering dim light, I could see people walking by. Some under the crooked umbrella, some completely drenched and some struggling to manage their cell phone trying to exchange some romantic pleasantries with their loved ones.

This rainstorm did not seem to end and various thoughts started pouring into my mind. Standing alone, I wished I had one wonderful companion to spend this moment with me. Life has been like this sudden outburst; very much unexpected and uncertain.

I could see the mini-waterfalls falling from the corner of the roofs down to the streets with a force enough to crumble a mini mountain. I was watching the forcing water washing away the pile of mud stuck hard onto the ground until the last grain helplessly gave up and lost itself into the streams of water flowing in front of me.

I wished these were my grains of sorrows instead and I would have been so happy to see them go away.
Why it never rains in this way in our life to help us out from this mess –

The mess of losing one’s identity to this corporate world.
The mess of learning the art of living alone.
The mess of pushing yourself and challenging your healthy body clock.
The mess of mixing your work with the existing relationships.
The mess of getting such thoughts and failing to resolve them.
The mess of…

The thoughts were unstoppable but the deluge had finally given up and I could see the surface to walk across and reach my den - My den of solace, My home :)

As I was trotting across, I was still unfazed my those thoughts as they kept lingering in my mind.

I reached my home and jumped onto my bed to doze off.

The gentle breezing peeking through my half-open window had led me into a peaceful slumber getting rid of those messy thoughts;
just to wake me up the next day and give me another chance to complete my above list.

Life in a..Metro

Bangalore - India's Silicon City. The City driven with Intellect and a complete Tech Savvy attitude.." :D This is what people see and Believe...

Even i had the same belief and i thought mayb my this DC and City would be Rocking and would be Cool. But, it definitely gave me disappointments in terms of Personal Life.

People here are more like Robots followin the routines and a complete proces - O - holic :D It was same when i came here..

Jus after my Mysore trainings, evrythn came down. My best group got shattered and i was left alone to strive in b'lore. My parents too din wanted me to come Pune (Mumbai - My Home). My career can be better driven in B'lre (this is wat they believed.. )

Being in Mumbai,Pune etc.. it ws a complete new experience for me. Even Mysore wid no night life n clubbin scene, it was like heaven wid ur close frnds arnd!! The Beginning 5-6mnths was jus like office to home and weknds to keep thnkn abt my old times and memories.. It was for sure dat i would not have any good memories from B'lore.

Here, i felt was jus to make ur professional life and be practical , leavin aside all ur family/friends. Life to Earn and lose out the most important time of ur Life.
People even here..in my IBU are reserved and have their own gang.
So, it was more of lonely brkfast, lunch ..etc. And at nite, it was my Ipod and myslf staring outside the window thnkn abt the time and future.. till the last jerk near by stop.

Go home , hav my dinner and sleep off like havnt slept for ages, only to get up in the mrn'g and seeing myslf before my monitor.. This is the routine.. and it has followd until i keep waiting for some breaks during my weeknds, if my frnds drop-in from Pune,hyd or chennai..etc

But,this is what is Life.. in a Metro ( In dino.. hmm ) Still.. i feel this is what teaches you.. and i hav stoppd cribbin abt my loneliness.. and hav started moving.. Things seem better now.. Wil take time , but u'l finally end up being satsified..
This is what Life..is Compromise & Understanding..

Welcome to B'lore-The Metro .. Hoping to get even better.. :)

"Wish i could.... "

Sometimes... We are lost and just thnk - "Wish i could make this.. " or "Let this wish come true.."

These two words wil always be there for all types of people we meet and who exist in the world... People at all point in life ..use these two words. Be it Ambani's or the one who sits across the street begging for his day's living..
Be it u or myself, who can nevr live without these two words..Nevr in this world, one can be satisfied, and would keep wishing for somethng or the other to happen..

Desires are like those creepers which will nevrr stop growin and wil keep winding around u all ur life..

We should never be disheartened becoz the wishes u are having will b fulfilled only to make u ready for a new wish .. :)

This is Life.. Wishes gettn fulfilled depnds upon the Time and your Destiny.. This is the intricacy of Life whch will keep us guessing until we realize that what has happened, had happened for the Best..

Its all how we see... Smile at it and u wil see the difference.. :)

SO.. Whatz the wish for today ??

Intoduction

Hi all,
Well, this is my first blog and was just waiting for this one to happen after ofcourse, when i saw my friends blogging and the excitement you get to see over these posts.

Life's Like that - was choosen on the Experiences i have undergone and seen through life which has made me quite aware of how things go about ..but still there are situations when i feel ,"Will i ever be able to understand this completely - my present or my coming future..?? "

Things are sometimes out-of-control, but still you realise that what has happened was bound to happen and what is happening is all happening for a reason and what is going to happen will surely happen for the sake to bring the changes in you or to make you realise something which you may never would have bothered to understand..

Well.. this is Life and my Blogs would be all about it.. The way you see and interpret would be different, but the things which has happened will always show you something which you would have never expected.

Thanks to my friend Kritika, who had initiated and made me create my blogger's account. And, here i go with my blogs to show up the facts of Life.
Life - with a added Spice and rosy touch , brings along the lessons to remember :)

Thanks - raj
