परिस्थिती चांगली म्हणावं तर तसही नाही आणि वाईट म्हणावं असाही नाही. घरची ओढ, आणि नोकरी ह्याच्या मध्ये अडकलेली ही अवस्था. Work From Home हे शब्द ऐकले की काय आठवत आपल्याला? कोरोना? लॅपटॉप? की आरामात बसून केलेलं काम? विचार करायला खूप सोपी पण अमलात आणायला थोडी शी किचकट संकल्पना आहे ना ही. बघणाऱ्याला थोडं सोपं वाटेल, सहज वाटेल पण मुळात जो जगतो त्यासाठी कदाचित अवघड असेल. आणि त्यात  family सोबत नसाल तर थोडं अजून कष्टाच असेल. रोज सकाळी उठणं, आवरून meeting attend करणं. Meeting होता होताच 12 वाजतात मग स्वयंपाकाला लागणं. (हो माझाही हातभार असतो बनवण्यात😉) करून झालं की जेवायचं आणि मग परत कामावर बसायचं. एवढं सगळं होईपर्यंत २ वाजलेले असतात. आणि अर्धा दिवस संपलेला देखील असतो. आणि ह्या सगळ्यात शेजारी राहणार कुटुंबात रोज काहीतरी चमचमीत बनत आणि आमच्या नाकाला उगाचच त्रास देऊन जात. माझं गाऱ्हाणं सांगत नाही फक्त परिस्थिती सांगतोय. ह्या कोरोना मूळ खूप काही शिकायला मिळालं. स्वयंपाक ही फक्त एक बाजू. घराला संभाळण्यापासून अगदी भाजी आणणे, किराणा सामान भरणे आणि महत्वाचं म्हणजे जेवढं गरजेचं आहे तेवढं आणि तेच वा...

One day ends and another starts! One day ends full of sadness and the next starts with a smile on your face! One day you work hard and the next you chill out like a school holiday! One day you stress about the future and you know, the next day is the future! You hope everything will be alright, One day ends with hope, and next starts with another hope, and the loop continues! One day you enjoy a lot and the other you sit in a corner of your room watching sad status on Facebook! One day you miss something and the next you get something extra! One day you get what you hoped for and the next you wish you would have better than this! The days go on and life continues! You don't stop hoping and dreaming  even if these are the hardest times of your life. The story between that one day and the next day is for eternity,  you exist or not!

Writing has always been my dream! But above it one thing I used to tell myself from my childhood that, I'm in this world to do something revolutionary! And to my luck, I'm born with such genes! It's difficult to interpret your thoughts into words so that others can feel them just by reading them! So I just thought why don't I just share my thoughts with you guys! Suppose you go on a social media page, read a post/quote and think that whoa the incident happened with me as well! I could have written it too! It's damn easy! Well, wait!! Yes, it happens with everyone that's why you are able to relate it but it's not easy! That writer, need to put his heart out and think about the subject which he wants to share. Then he needs to convert them into simple words and sentences so that you can really understand it and feel it! But, it's not that difficult as well.  You might have often heard, 'listen before you speak'. Let me modify that for you, 'Re...

The days you remember? Those summer days? Bright and shiny, free and funny? Those beautiful days! Plans to play, remember those? Ice cream, kulfi and mangoes very juicy? Those summer days! Meeting cousins, house full happiness! Nobody scolds for our laziness! Fan on full speed and beloved sugarcanes, Do you recall the days? Hot sweaty afternoons,  Then cool water splashes,  Well, river, swimming pools, full in similar ways,  Summer days?  Lost in time,  Forgotten with smile!  Those beautiful summer days!  Summer Days!

It’s hard when you stop understanding your own feelings! People expect you to show some act of maturity and you fail them. People expect you to be sensible at every moment and you fail in that too. When you have a crush on someone and the person comes to talk to you and after a time you realize the person doesn’t feel the same way. Sometimes you love someone for a very long time and after that ‘long time,’ you realize that you don’t have enough courage to say it to that someone. Sometimes you are good at something (really good) and still make mistakes while doing it, of course not purposely but it happens. You meet people every day, now and then and you call them friends but sometimes they are just colleagues who are acting friendly (Over friendly sometimes) But some of them can be real friends (even if they don’t show that) You don’t understand the difference between either. Sometimes you expect people to behave how you like them to behave but you know (from inside) that you can’t co...
