What is Love?

Its been a long time since I wrote last. Recent events have really made me stronger than I thought... I had expected otherwise. For couple of days, I felt weak. But just one long weekend full of activities placed everything righteously.

However, I must admit that these events have set my thoughts in some direction...

For quite sometime, I was following a illusion... It was said to be love. Today, I really have a big question, What is LOVE?

Is love powerful than anything else in this world? Does it really conquer all?

What should you choose, love or self respect? Dignity or insults in the name of love?

I was brought up to understand that love will help you grow as a human, it helps you to overcome your shortcomings, it protects and saves and never dies and it understands anger.

But my experiences have shown me a exactly opposite picture.
"I don't want to be with you cause you get angry!" I have heard this so many times that I started thinking getting angry is abnormal.

People don't hesitate to insult you because you are different than them. And I was carried an impression that to love it to respect the differences.

How would it be to be loved back for what you are? The musics can be different, The colors can be different, the hobbies can be different. But you definitely need to have same goals... Rather one goal to be happy with each other.

If you are looking for love to make you feel nice for yourself, probably you are looking for a compromise at other end. You have to feel nice about yourself, no one else can do that for you.

Few people are obsessed with the idea of being in love. They hardly love anyone, they just love the idea of being in love. They will go round the town telling that they are in love with someone and at the same time will see numerous flaws in the one they say they love.

It is said that treat others the way you want to be treated. So love others the way you want be love also would stand true.

Riki - The dog and Me -the Human

A promise that will last forever...  It was third week of November 2003. I was recovering from relapsed Malaria and pneumonia and had returned to my parent’s place from Navi Mumbai. My then husband turned up one early evening and surprised me with a gift. The gift was a cute little black Labrador retriever puppy of less than 3 months of age. (November 20, 2003) I always wanted a dog but my parent’s understanding of responsibility had always denied acceptance of a dog. We had fish and birds but a dog was too much. I had dreamt that when I will grow up I will get myself a German shepherd and my ex-husband always had dreamt of having a black lab. So obviously he picked up a black lab. When the puppy came home, my first reaction was, "ohh my baby is here!" Day one On day one, this pup sat near the chair which was like ten times his size, six months later he found that the space beneath this chair can be his hideout when a bath is called upon, and a year lat...

How got Leh'd Part Three (10 August - 12 August 2014)

10th August:  It was a good morning as it I could get up leisurely and get ready. We packed all luggages and kept in the guest house’s cloak room. (There were barely two big backpacks technically.) Today, I was well prepared with motion sickness tablet. We set ourselves in the SUV and picked up 2 Austrian girls Viktoria and Christa. They were on long vacation to India. We withdrew some money as we did not have any bookings made at the Nubra Valley. Our driver Dorje was a middle aged man, who claimed to be an ex-army. Jolly good fellow. He was fun to chat and seemed to be experienced as he knew how to handle 4 girls. Khardung La is barely 40 km from Leh. And most of the road to Khardung La overlooks Leh city. Shanti Stupa looked glorious in soft sunlight. Now, we were gaining altitude rapidly and I was haunted by the memories of Kargil war and Formula One car at Khardung La. Every time, we drove past the Army Officers, a feeling of regret, shame and pride kept revolving in my...

In search of footsteps of the Great Shivaji Maharaj - Umbarkhind

February 1661: It was 2nd of February and the Mughal Army was marching fast towards the Konkan region from Pune. The army consisted of Horses, Bulls, Elephants, small canons and men. They were equipped for a full fledged war anytime. Their head, Kartalab Khan, was a fierce Uzbek warrior. Trusted by the Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb, he was sent to the Pune region to assist Shahista Khan to wage war against the Great Shivaji. Kartalab Khan was assisted by Kachhap, Jasawant Kokate, and the lady sardar RaiBaghan. The army had reached Lohgad and Khan had decided to take the pass between Lohgad and Visapur to enter Konkan. The spies informed Kartlab Khan that the Great Shivaji was resting at Kuruwande Village, roughly 4 miles west to the Lohgad. Khan instantly jumped at the opportunity to siege the Great Shivaji and gain higher ranks at the courts of the Emperor. Thus, the army changed its course and turned towards to Kuruwande. As they reached Kuruwande, they found that the informers ...
