Drop Some Words

...I simply kept staring at him. What did he mean? We were neither in the midst of any war…nor under threat of any kind of natural calamities. Then what did he mean? I wanted an explanation, so I asked him. He looked at me and shrugged his shoulders; then slowly; as if he was about to reveal a secret to me; he said ‘you deserve to die’. The world will kill you soon…because you don’t know how to survive. Not expecting this kind of behavior from him, I almost felt like a lost child. My eyes moist, my legs trembling, and my heart beating faster…I ran out of his house. He is my friend, my heart kept repeating… Three years later, one evening I sat in front of the window of my rented one room flat, and reflected through the moments of my life. I have searched a lot for that ‘good post’ that I deserved, but never found it. They offered me some chance but with my dignity I could not accept them. The result was that neither could I marry nor take care of my parents…I noticed two boys walking ...

And why did I stop writing? I was busy... busy at searching myself. I wanted to find what could be best for me. In this world, where we all need good pay-scale jobs, I was looking for one of those. It was challenging, since I have no experience... no back-ups. I needed help. But there was no one to help me. I looked everywhere for you. But only to realize that you are no more a part of my life. I don't blame him. He had to leave because that offer he got was worth taking. He had to move forward in life and I couldn’t become a burden on him. But I could not teach my heart this truth, and believe me it suffered a lot. 'Life has to go on' is the basic truth, so I started looking around for inspiration. I found it in the form of a spider, who tried hard to reach the top of the ceiling, but after failing four times it, did not give up and at the end a lizard came and ate it up. I knew this was the real story of life. So I decided not to give up; because I already know my fut...

It was my final year; and I was prepared for my future. Everything was perfectly planned and it was a matter of only a few more months... Tick-tick-tick-tick... the time didn't stop. And soon it was my birthday. Yes, its always the same...birthday means you expect family, friends and loads of good wishes and presents. But last year something was different (and i felt it right in the morning). My parents were out of station, and though my friends wished me via calls, yet no one was free to visit me.(And my boyfriend was so damn busy that he actually forgot my birthday!!!) I wished that I could be with him but that wasn't possible as he was in another city; so i decided to spend that day with myself. Me, alone. The day went fine and in the evening I went for a stroll in the park. The weather was really good and I kept walking till I realized that someone was following me. I looked at the shadow with the corner of my eyes, moving my head a little towards left. Yes there he was...

It was strange; I was still thinking about him? It had been three days since I met the man, but still his thoughts were fresh in my mind. Who was he...(of course I knew that he was a beggar!). He was starving on the road-side, I was passing by in my air-conditioned car. What could I do? It was a signal... it wasn't possible to get down and give him some money...or was it? How would I know; I never did that before. "What about you?" My friends didn't answer; one of them smiled. "What's wrong?" I asked again. "You are crazy. Why are you still thinking about him?" She looked straight into my eyes. I couldn't answer her. I kept thinking about it for several days later on; until the day when i passed by that street again. He was right there, surrounded by passers-by. I tried to look through the crowd but it was almost impossible. I asked my driver to park the car and gave him a rupees fifty note to buy food for the man. The driver returned af...
