How are you?


Why is it "I'm fine :)" escapes my lips regardless of the situation I'm in, the person who's asking and the context he/she is referring to?

Why is it that this question makes me want to sit and ponder, even when superficially I feel quite alright?

Why is it that I rush to my best friends, wanting to think aloud and talk it through, but at the same time afraid that they'll think it's another one of my crazy, sad days?

Why is it that half the thoughts in my mind are left unsaid only because of the fear that the person will feel overburdened by my seemingly insignificant problems?

Why is it that this fear is much greater when the said person is a dear, dear friend, whose opinion matters more to me than that of an acquaintances'?

Why is it that these 3 words send me in a spiral maze of emotions I can not make any sense of?

But this year, I would simply like to sit back and marvel over our country and its citizens. And especially, salute the true leaders and fighters of our country. India is one country with a plethora of religions and languages. We say we be...

The lost days.......

 Where did my childhood go? It went to some forgotten place, That is hidden in an infant’s face, That’s all I know.                                                                                       -          Marcus Natten I know i am not 25 or something and i havent really "lost" my childhood but i am trying to imply something else over here.  When we were small kids, like really small, it wasnt a crime holding a boy's hand. It wasnt a disgrace to walk or sit with your guy friends. When we were small kids, we could talk to anyone and everyone endlessly. On any topic. At that time we didn't stop to think whether we were offending someone or not. All were our friends....no hatred....no enemies..... Whe...
