Being in Bengaluru and not experiencing traffic would be like getting a deserved hike every year, obviously, none of it is real. We, the proud owners of two-wheelers are here to share our story. We are like the water in the river, no matter how many stones block us, we still flow through the crevices. And yes, that does make the big stones a.k.a the four-wheelers to hate us more than ever. We do not stop for anybody, actually no, we do! We stop for the bright red light in the middle of a junction, our biggest enemy to be frank, and the lame cows and buffaloes who think that the roads belong to them! We also give way to ambulances by throwing ear splitting honks, also, we are the same people who follow the ambulances to get a clear way ahead. In the most crowded roads, we find a route just for us and you will find an alternate route thanks to us. Back in the old days, cows and goats would graze through the hills and form a clear-cut path for the humans to walk. I can say we perfor

Majestic were the mountains of Kashmir.. The weather had got harsher this winter.Cold wind blew right through the ears and tickled the life out of you.A lean girl struggled with her baggy clothes.She pulled them closer to get more warmth. Anikka! Anikka had forgotten what she was called, for she had traveled longer than she knew.She was alone in her life, and travel and tourist were her friends.This time she wanted to explore the ice caves of Himalayas. Anikka stepped into  the  cold ice.Cold traveled quickly through her spine.She chose the most lonely cave,maybe it reflected her.The beauty marveled her.The foggy sunlight crept through tiny holes of the ice cave, which made the ice sparkle like diamonds.At that very moment she felt satisfaction for the journey she made.She wanted to freeze the moment in her memories forever.The cave got larger as she explored, and darker at times.Ice caves exploration is one of the most dangerous tourist activities in the world.A tiny slip a

Away from the noise Away from the crowd Alone in the nights Safely tucked in his arms Steadily breathing Fingers entwined Peace in eyes Worries overthrown A wish appears On top of many To steal the moment And frame it forever For all we have In this busy world Is a moment or two Where she finds you

A large house with comfortable furniture, a home  theater , a six seater dining table, two balconies, three bedrooms and a tiny kitchen where the coffee was brewing. The perfect view of setting sun through an elongated diwan placed at the corner of a balcony. Life sounds so safe through these materials! The house walls were filled with pictures of kids and grandkids , their stages of growth recorded so beautiful right from their baby steps to their school uniforms!  The pictures look happy with two couples smiling with their kids, the phrase “Family” inscribed on the corner! The refrigerator had too many magnets stuck, with miniature worlds in it. In the center of all the magnets lied the naughty smile of a 1-year-old! On the corner was a wooden heart stuck with a quote "I love you Mom”. The bedrooms had neatly made beds, waiting forever!  Yet, not a speck of dust was seen anywhere. The kitchen had a limited number of vessels, for the sake of just two. The T.V had a

A hundred channels to watch, a hundred websites to shop on, a hundred fonts to decorate! The list itself is endless. In this limitless world with so many options, we still end up, unsatisfied with all the possible options. What we all lack is that personal satisfaction, be it as simple as 1 round of Panipuri. When you gulp that last golgappa in your wide open mouth, all you want to feel is,"It was worth it! worth the cravings!" So why are we so unsatisfied all the time? why can't we just choose and be happy with it. Why do we have to go through the rigorous selection process just to make sure that whatever we chose is the right one. Humans survived by the sole law of "Survival of the fittest" . So its in our genes to choose the best. It goes beyond the survival instincts. But the same instinct has made us so needy. Our endless needs and the thirst for satisfaction puts us in a difficult situation. Inner peace is not so easy as those swishy Kung-fu moves
