Anecdotes from life. Some tales are a figment of my imagination and some are simply an observation.

thats how he said...
“Only once in
your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world
around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and
they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes
for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never
achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something
wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will
share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are
hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt
your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they
build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and
even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a
quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about
what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that
seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become
invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of
your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young
again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily
life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two
during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a
smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous
conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby.
Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know
they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this
person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to
mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon.
You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and
in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed
possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to
feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing
you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the
end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope
and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”

wo ashnaa. . .
*****
Kiya hai pyaar jise, Humne zindagi ki tarah,
Woh aashna bhi mila humse, ajnabee ki tarah. . .
Kise khabar thi badhegi, kuch aur tareki,
Chupega woh kisi badli mein, chandni ki tarah…
Badhaa ke pyaas meri, usne haath chod diya,
Woh kar raha tha, murravat dillagi ki tarah. . .
Sitam to yeh hai ki, woh bhi na ban saka apna,
Kubool humne kiye jiske gum, khushi ki tarah. . .
Kabhi na socha na tha, humein kateel uske liye,
Karega humpe sitam, woh bhi har kisi ki tarah. . .
Woh ashna bhi na mila humse, ajnabee ki tarah. . .

10.8.11
aaj jaane ki zidd na karo...
aaj pehli dafaa tumko payaa hai yoon
nazdeek se bhi kareeb tu ayaa hai yoon
palako ke ishaare … jaan-e-jaan
dhadkano ko samajh bhi to lo…
aaj jaane ki zidd na karo…
kisko bolu main ye nigaahon se pilate ho tum
na bhi dekhoon tumhe to yaad aate ho tum
nashe me inki mujhe … jaan-e-jaan
baaz-u-on me fanaa to karo…
aaj jaane ki zidd na karo
beautiful lines by - Sudarshan Faakir (one of my favourite... just felt like sharing)
Agar hum kahen aur vo muskuraa de
Hum unke liye zindagaanii luTaa de
Har ek moD par ham Gamon ko sazaa de
Chalo zindagii ko muhabbat banaa de
Agar Khud ko bhuule to kuchh bhii na bhuule
Ke chaahat men unakii Khudaa ko bhulaa de
Kabhii Gam kii aaNdhii jinhen chhuu na paaye
Wafaao ke hum woh nasheman banaa de
Qayaamat ke diiwaane kahate hain humse
Chalo unake chehare se pardaa haTaa de
Sazaa de silaa de, banaa de miTaa de
Magar vo koii faisalaa to sunaa de
ye kuch aise lafz hai jinhe jitni baar padha jaaye ya suna jaaye utni baar kaan ko ye naye se lagte hai...ek naya sa wada karte hai..jeene ki nayi wajah si de jaate hai...fir us purani mohabbat ko...ek baar fir naya ehsaas dila jaate hai....usi nadaan umar me fir wapas pahucha jaate hai...

uske honthon pe...
aate aate mera naam sa reh gya…
uske honthon pe kuch kaamptaa reh gya..
wo mere saamne hi gaya aur main
raaste ki tarah dekhta reh gya…
jhooth wale kahin se kahin badh gye
aur main tha ki sach bolta reh gya
aandhiyon ke iraade to achche the
ye diya kaisa jalta hua reh gya..
