You are my sunshine.....my only sunshine!

 Have you been intimidated by a confident face, with a honeyed smile and a sanguine walk, across genders?


Well, that's what I was! Yes, when I first saw him. He got down from his car and yes, the sanguine walk, the honeyed smile and confidence on his face. Not that he wanted to intimidate me, not that I was scared. But that kind of intimidation, you know, where you feel, Woah! he's out of my league.


I fell for him then and there, but talking to him, was the big dilemma.


Itni shiddat se maine tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai, ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saazish ki hai....something of that sort happened and we both fell in love.


From intimidation to getting smittened to loving to being together, sums up our journey. And as if in Norway, where the sun doesn't set, the luminescence of Northern lights is set upon me, since!





Yes, he is my sunshine...my only sunshine. He makes me happy even when the skies are grey. He makes me laugh on silliest of his jokes. By now I can predict his jokes too, yet he manages to get out that chuckle.


He doesn't shower me with gifts every now and then, but he surprises me with unexpected little things that he does. He would buy me a jasmine gajra on a random day. He would order my favourite food, not because I am annoyed after a fight or something, but just like that. We never say sorry to each other. We quarrel, we take our own time to calm down, we converse, we sort it out and we patch up.


We could be running our rat races on individual front but when together, we take our own time to complete the marathon, hand in hand.


When I am feeling low, it's not always that he asks me What's the matter? He would give me some space, for me to heal and even then if he finds me in blues, he will colour me pink, with his love.

I love to be his white canvas, wherein he fills me up with multitudes of tints, brights and pastels, tinctures and tones of his personality colliding with mine, making a unique masterpiece.


When he gets angry, well, this sun rarely heats up, but when he does, he makes it loud and clear. Similar to the clouds thundering in monsoons. But just like one shower of rains cools down the earth, his anger vanishes when I kiss him gently or for that matter, even if I cook his favourite food item....



The way to a man's heart is through his stomach....right? Yes, precisely!


On darker nights, when visibility gets blur and my life's ship is imperiled, he leads me on like a light house. His encouraging words give strength to overcome the high tides, his willingness to subdue the waves of hardships, makes us sail through.


I wish this boat of ours remains afloat, filled with love, trust and understanding, basking in the beams of sunshine!


#Fiction


I have tried to gather all applausable qualities of men around, be it my husband or husbands of my friends, and poured it in one, to make a complete man, every woman would want him to be by her side...and make him, her sunshine!

Diary 2024

  And 2024 ends..... What a roller coaster ride!  Every year passes by and the new year comes afore, leaving you with something and making you leave something.  It would be quite odd if time doesn't indoctrinate our minds. This year taught me so much, like the previous one and the prior ones too! I have learnt valuable lessons thanks to 2024. The year was challenging, demanding yet gratifying.  What I grasped this year would be exemplar for rest of my life!  The fear of losing your close ones, leaves you petrified. While the close ones are battling, struggling with all their mights, you feel helpless even when you have honest intentions of support. Mental support, yes that can be given in abundance, there's no ceiling to it. But the one you intend to support is going through so much that sometimes just being there, showing up is also helpful.  Sleepless nights, nightmares haunted me for days. But then when you see them valiantly striving and vanquishing the...

Moira : Bound to happen! Chapter - 1.

She was sitting on the bench under the huge tree. Its extensive branches covered few more benches around. The park was a hangout place for teenagers. It was a playground for children and a perfect site for the exercise enthusiasts. People jogged, wearing headphones, determined to shed those extra kilos and be fitter, sticking to their new year resolutions, was a familiar sight here.  Yuga wasn't feeling the vibe today. She had left home as usual, early in the morning, in her tracks and tee to run a few miles, but after three rounds she just sat down on the bench. She saw an old lady taking rounds, walking slowly, but with vigour. The tree was shedding it's aged golden leaves. One such tanned foliole fell beside Yuga on the bench. She picked it up and let it descend on the ground. She switched off the songs playing on her phone. With air pods in her ears, she sat inert on the bench. She closed her eyes and could hear the birds chirping. "They are so happy even at the break ...

What's your plan?

 "You've to score good grades at school!" "You've to do your Olympiads!" "You need to have a co-curricular activity or some sports activity!" "You should be able to dance or sing or play a musical instrument!" Oh my my! So much pressure on these little one's learning to adapt and traverse the lanes and by lanes of this complicated world. "But its a rat race! He/she needs to figure it out sooner. Studies, career, universities, the stress builds up as they advance into their grades (classes), isn't it?" Yes, true. It's a tough task for the coming generations. Population is ever increasing. Even though the colleges and courses are increasing in numbers but we have no say on the quality of education they impart. Also the leading universities and colleges are always the first priority, obviously. So the newbies are looked down upon. Also the reservations hinder the paths of many. Well, so what score is a good enough score...
