In times of ....


Albert Einstein most profoundly said "How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose we know not, though sometimes sense it. But we know from daily life that we exist for other people, first of all for whose smiles and well- being our own happiness depends." ..
This quote quote has always made me reflective on my life and the people for whom I exist....
Life does seems worth living when I see a smile on the face of my mother ...Sometimes when we are distressed and in a pensive mood a reassuring smile does make us feel light..And sometimes there are people in your life who are really affected by your grief and they help you overcome it or stand by you during that difficult time..They maybe your parents,or your grand parents,your friends,maybe your sibling,or the person you love..Those people are really special,not because they love you but because you are a significant part of there lives..They are not only there in times of your happiness but they are also affected by your anguish..
In my life the person who is most affected by my problems,my failures,my lows,my disappointments and all my misfortunes is my Mom...
I am affected by some very important people in my life and my Mom sure tops the list..
I clearly remember one such significant incident in my life when my sister's board results had come out and she had got 86% I was so happy for her,I bragged about it as if that was my board result!!!!
Another incident when Riko had got 48 out of 50 in Maths and I was so happy for her that I declared it to the whole class and i still remember how happy she was that day...
There are many such incidents in life when we find that our happiness actually does depend on other people..People who add a meaning to every moment of your life,people who not only support you in your sorrow but also stand by you during that time..
These people do make your life seem easy....
Cheers to them...

Monday blues..!

Today while coming out of my Biology tuition I slipped but then I somehow regained my balance.!! Yes I slipped again..!!A year back on my 16th birthday I slipped and fractured my ankle!!Actually it's my fault only there are two staircases in my biology tuition both leading to the exit, one is the normal kinda stairs which we generally have and the other one is a spiral staircase which opens outwards (yes you can even see the sky from it's broken corners!) but it doesnot even have a railing in some places and it's extremely narrow(exactly the size of my foot!!yes I did measure it!!) and steep!! So as you may have guessed by now I regularly use the spiral staircase!!Girls in my tuition can't even think of using that staircase and I don't know why even guys don't use it!!(maybe they are scared!!).. I really don't understand why I love those 'danger stairs' (yes my friends call it that) so much but I actually do..I remember once when I was about four or

Retreating back..

Today is Dashami the last day of Durga puja when Ma Durga is immersed into the Ganges..And like every bengali I too have a heavy heart on this day.. When I was small I used to go to see  the Bisarjan (or the immersing of the idol of Ma Durga) in a lake in Behala with my cousins in the evening...Wide eyed with wonder i would watch as scores of idols from tiny to tall made their way on the shoulders of devotees down to the final immersion place.. The immersion place would be filled by devotees dancing to the dhaak beats and the smoke from the dhunuchi... And I would silently shed tears (like a silly girl) seeing Ma Durga gradually sink into the water ..And if anybody noticed(which they hardly did) I would say uff eto dhoa (The smoke of the dhunuchi is unbearable)!! My cousins would happily witness the noise,the colour and the grandeur with our newly bought balloons and ice creams as I kept getting sadder and sadder.. And while walking back home from there(the lake is at walking distanc

Just As long as we are together

This is a poem i had written when i was in the 6th standard and our group nearly broke.....I admit This poem has lots of flaws and abstractions but for me this poem really means a lot..... I remember the time we were standing with our faces to the sun.. Picturing our times to come Many a clouds have passed by since we stood under the same sky Talking in the summer sights.. Howling at the city lights I still remember the time that passed.. Pulling pranks just for fun Summer vacations were such a blast the kind of memories that will always last.. Growing up in future seemed such a thing We thought we knew what it would bring.. The stars seemed so clear from our domain.. I sure could handle some of those good times again.. Even if our dreams still seem far away.. Our friendship is always here to stay.. Until we are all gone.. The roads between us will never be too long...... I have been putting this off for quite sometime now, thinking I’d write this post “later” but I figured there is no
