The unconditional love


It was a hot summer day of May 2010,  I had just finished swimming, dried myself, pulled on my jeans and tee. Then I got myself an ice cream from the pool canteen. While my brothers were getting something for themselves to eat , I started walking towards the parking lot, tired of rigorous swimming I was literally swaying towards my car, and on my way I saw her. She was the best thing I had ever seen, In the bright hot summer sun she sparkled like a diamond, her perfect finish and aerodynamic curves made my knees go weak. she was nothing like anything I had seen before. Yes! it was love at first sight for me!. I went nearer curiously to see her more closely and I saw the letters "ZMR" written in red and white on it. She was a beast, capable of producing torque like no other Indian two wheeled machine could.  She'd won my heart.

ZMR-Above all.

    Exactly after a month I had the same bike standing in my garage, it was a dream come true for me.
   One of the best two wheeled machines that any indian motor company has ever built.She handles like a dream.Gives her rider the feeling of being invincible and an adrenaline rush to take your breath away.Yes! she is the best thing that's ever happened to me.I call her 'My Baby', others call it 'The ZMR' .

Peace Out

Ever since I started understanding the ways of this world, I've seen this world worked only on one principle - "Survival of the fittest", Although I was never interested in competing against my own kind, I had to, it was like we were conditioned to do so ever since we were young, we made made to write exams and run races, we were told it was to make us a better person. But I never really saw any good in it. It was more like we were taught to fight among ourselves, only in a more dignified way.

Now everytime I walk out of my house its like I'm walking into a battle field, where I constantly have to prove myself. Show to this world why I deserve to be where I am now. I hate to admit it, but i am too a part of this circle, where i'm constantly trying to prove my superiority over others, everyone is, one way or the other.

Do you ever wonder why you're competing?


 Life is one pretty looking bitch!

Growing up



                           As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt.                                                                   

                            Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out,  dance in the pouring rain, shout out loud, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.
                        
                           And ultimately when you are on your death bed awaiting your end, you'll look back at your life contented, because you always did what your heart wanted. Your face will have a smile when you leave this world.


Always follow your heart.

You live only once.  Make something worthy out of yourself but NEVER forget to enjoy your life.

Everyone has their fight


Now I know you're wondering what I mean by "Everyone has their fight". To fight is to stand up for something that you believe in. To fight is to stand against something that you don't believe in. To fight is to kill your inner demons.


And if you think you have no reason to fight, then take a second closer look at your life, you will find a hundred reasons to fight for. Some fight for love, some for forgiveness, some for family, some for education, Heck! some fight for their lives!, the only reason that a cancer patient fights is for his life. Everyone has their fight. 


'To fight' has a very broad meaning it starts from the struggle that a homemaker does to the wars between nations. It doesn't matter if your fight is big or small, what actually matters is whether you fight or give up. When you are in a fight, you have a hundred reasons to give up, but you gotta find that one reason that keeps you going every time, that one reason that will get you back in your fight. Giving up, that's easy, staying and fighting the fight is tough. Win or lose doesn't matter, your effort and heart matters, and in the end only those who don't give in or give up triumph and come out victorious in life.


Sometimes life can be a bitch.  Everyone has a fighter within, you just have to bring it out. Show that bitch what you're worth and claim your happiness back.


What are you fighting for?

Lets do the unthinkable. Lets live for a purpose. Lets fight for what we believe in.

Making others happy = feeling priceless


The other day, I was waiting for the green light at a traffic signal on my bike. This of many signals in the city had the longest waiting time, while I looked at the signal, waiting, longing badly for it to go green, as i was getting late for my exam, a bike stopped next to mine, a school boy of around 12 years i guess was sitting on it, behind his father who was riding the bike. His father was scolding him for not getting ready on time for school. The boy took out a doughnut from his bag, it looked really tasty with chocolate and vanilla cream on it, seeing this I reckoned he dint have his breakfast too. Just as the boy was about to take the first bite of this really delicious looking doughnut, he stopped and looked on his right side, he saw a small boy of almost his age begging on the signal, and as he looked on, the small boy came up to him and started begging him for some change, while begging the pauper boy stared at the doughnut with his red and tired eyes, between all of this I suddenly realized I had an exam and glanced on the signal timer which had just 10 seconds to go green, as I shuffled my eyes between the signal timer and this school boy, I saw the school boy looking at his doughnut, then at the pauper boy, at that moment I thought he would give this beggar some change and get rid of him. But the boy smiled at the beggar and offered him the doughnut. Just then the green signal hit, and I raced my bike away. I was already getting late for my exam, but as I raced off away from the signal I turned back to look at the pauper boy, he was eating the doughnut with a smile on his face and his eyes full of gratitude. Seeing what the school boy had done, considering his age, sent chills down my spine, I smiled all my way to the exam centre.

That night as I lay on my bed, listening to 'payphone' from the 'maroon 5', looking at the starry sky out of the window I wondered what could have made the school boy do what he did. Then i realized that the boy did it without any reason, simply wanting to help the other boy, someone of his same age, someone who would never get to go to school like him, or someone who would never enjoy what he enjoyed in life, It was not the matter of a doughnut, it was much much deeper and intensified,  he put a smile on the pauper boy's face, and i bet it was the best feeling he had, making someone smile. This amazing and rare quality is usually seen in children.

Why is it that in the course of growing up we tend to lose this quality?  or should it be called growing down?
as it makes us bad and mean. As we grow up we tend to place ourselves before everything in life often don't  think how it would affect others around us. Its not that we have to sacrifice really big things in our lives to make others happy, Even the smallest of our actions can spread a smile across many faces, Like what the school boy did.

I'm not trying to give a miss universe speech :P all i'm trying to say is

" Spreading a smile  is worth more than all the riches on this earth "
        ( yes!! this is my quote, My original quote :D)

Smile and keep spreading smiles 
Do your part in making others happy, it feels awesome! Make earth a better place to live.

My purpose on earth

One question that has always been on my mind, which with time got louder and louder inside me was
"what is my purpose on this earth?"

When i ran my eyes around me i saw a number of people. There were people who existed without giving their existence a thought, just living their lives, doing what was necessary to live-earning their bread, all of these people, once had dreams which were somewhere in the daily chores of their lives lost, got faded or had been killed.
But among these people also lived those who did not let go off their dreams, people who embraced greatness and immortality. This journey which they took wasn't an easy one. It was full of obstacles and people who wanted these men to fall face first. Yet still out of their determination, hardwork and courage, they made themselves a place in history.

I often stand in front of the mirror and wonder "will i make it big in life?", "will i fulfill my dreams?"
Many people told me you can only let time answer that.....

But i told myself  "I aint one of those people who let "time" decide the fate of their lives.....Maybe I WILL work my heart out to win what i want in my life......Maybe I WILL fight my way up in life......Maybe I WILL be one hell of a man when i grow up"




"I'm in pursuit of greatness....are you?"
