Diwali 2013

Here comes another Diwali. Another day of celebrations, excitements, noise, light and joy. A lot has been changed over last one year in my life and my family's life. These changes are long lasting impact. This Diwali set a tone for coming life or better say we are entering in new phase of our life.
Office Celebrations
I am getting married on Nov 18th and my brother is getting married on Nov 30th. So Papa has got some relief that his sons are normal and they like girls only. Start of this year has brought lot of tensions, discussions, and other unrealistic situation in life. For the complete years tension clouds kept us in grey light. There were problems, discussion, problems, and discussion. But solution were not so near.

Sweet flowers.
But now all the solutions are there and me and my whole family is going to step into the new phase of life.

Hope every Diwali bring such JOY and HAPPINESS to each and every family in the world.

The Rangoli@Office
I wish all of you a great happy Diwali.

Sunset and Sunrise

We two were sitting on rock. Our hearts were pounding and were heard to one another but distance between these two hearts was zillions light years away. Our shadows were long and 2 inches distance was increased to couple of feet by the setting sun. There were not any words between us. We were just staring at something or nothing. Passion and love between us were washed away by mistrust and usual fights

Sunset view at Chandrashila Peak
There was chirping of birds, sound of wind and trill of grass but there was not any humane intervention. It was dusk and sun was going to disappear in some time. Radiance of its light has made the blue sky look reddish. It's rays were keeping the wind warm but mountains were trying to shiver the body. Everything was clear and visible. There was not any noise, there was not any pollution and there was not any person except we two with gloominess in hearts and invisible tears in eyes. Everything was serene but silent and heart breaking. There was not any respite for us in Himalayas as well

A “Sorry” echoed. I was still staring at the setting sun but she looked at me. Though the sun was gloomy but it wanted to tell me something. Though there was silence but it brought storm of thoughts. Though it was cold but it multiplied the warmth for my wife at that very moment.

She stared hard and tried to say something but she choked and sobbed. I saw tears rolling down from her eyes. I heard her crying. I stretched and took her into my arms.

We two were on our last trip before divorce. We were in love for last 10 years but a misunderstanding had brought us on the verge of separation. Amidst all this chaos, we planned a trip to Himalayas and planned to travel to Tungnath. At this very moment, we were sitting at Chadrashila peak which was 13500 feet above sea level and were kissing each other passionately. She was trying to say something but everything was said and told by overflowing stream of tears.

Apart from one and only “Sorry” nothing was said and told. There were not any questions, answers and clarifications. We climbed down the peak holding each other's hands. Sun had already gone behind the mountains leaving darkness to us and after thanking god, doors of our room were closed whereas doors of our hearts re-opened for each other. The complete night was spent in passion.

Sun began to unravel its brightness and We started climbing the peak to see the radiance and brightness of the new sun. It was coming up slowly but every next moment it was more beautiful, brighter and happier. Every next moment, its rays were covering more ground. Within some time it cherished the earth with rays and it cherished us with joy, happiness and light.
Sunrise View at Chandrashila
We sat there on the peak, keeping her shoulder on my shoulder and holding her hands in my hands, without speaking any words. From a far distant I heard voice of singing maestro Mohammad Rafi singing “Oh Sathi Re Tere Bina Bhi Kya Jeena…”. We remained silent and enjoyed the fading voice.

Thank You Sir

As soon as I wake up on a working day; two questions pop into my mind. First is "When will maid arrive?" and another is "Will there be huge traffic at under pass?" Maid does not concern me much but traffic chaos@underpass is a big pain in ass.

Under pass, what is this under pass and why is it so crucial on weekdays?

As name suggests it is a way, under National Highway 24, which connects Indirapuram society Ghaziabad and Noida Sector 62. Day by day sky scrapping are inaugurating, no of flats are increasing, more people are moving, and prosperity in the area is booming. With each wealthy individual a four wheeler vehicle is adding to the huge list of already existing vehicles. So in the morning number of vehicles, traveling to Noida Sector 62, is huge and this number is increasing day by day.


The concerned Underpass is barely enough to provide comfortable pass for two vehicles at a time and the road is filled with digs. Bumpy and small road makes life troublesome for people. So this pass works as a nerve which dampens the blood flow and increases the chances of heart attack i.e. traffic Jam.

The complete problem is not the underpass, but the impatience of individuals living in the locality. In general, to cross the pass, people create a line which keeps things in order. But there are people (XXX i.e. lot of slang to them), who do not understand the moral responsibility and instead of following the unforced but moral rules, break self imposed regulations to initiate the problem. These stupid people do not even act stupidly but also they provoke people who were following the order and it becomes chaos within few minutes. Few individuals get advantage from their heinous act but rest other people have to face the consequences. Sometime it takes 25-30 minutes of time to cross 500 meters.

People need guidance, a law, a regulator or a helper to demonstrate them the right path. This pass found one volunteer. One guy, who neither belongs to any law enforcement department nor any social group nor travels from this underpass, regulates the stupid people from initiating the chaos, He slaps an auto Driver, he shouts at Rickshaw driver, he guides the four wheeler driver to the correct lane, and sometime he routes stupid folks to NH24. Police, standing there, enjoy the intelligence and determination of this volunteer but their intellectual lack the capabilities of managing the underpass in such an efficient manner. This guy, with whole lot of muscles, mustaches and body fit sleeveless T-Shirt, looks like an army man. Once people see him standing in front of pass they themselves understand the order.

He shouts and Suggests people to behave as a human instead cattle.
He has earned a respect, an admiration and a lot of thanks from each selfish individual. Everyday people hope to see him at underpass. If he is not there it means you lost 20 minutes of your time to solve the Underpass riddle.

I do not know his name, his designation. I do not know where he stays. I do not know what he does for earning. I do not know where he disappears on some specific days. I do not know why he is doing all this for society. But I appreciate his work every day while passing the underpass.

I never got guts to ask him his name, designation, place of living. I never got guts to step down from my auto and tell him we all are very thankful for his work, time and charity. I found this platform i.e. my blog(Read by least number of people on earth) much safer and less humiliating to acknowledge the work of an individual to whole Indirapuram locality. He must feel proud and twist his mustache looking into one's eye to tell his role in the lives of others.

Hats off to you sir. Once again thank you very much for managing the underpass and saving our asses from our bosses.

Update: Based on the comment posted, His name is Sanjeev Trehan. He's 52 and a catering firm owner. Thank you very much sir.
