At Some Point

She finally decided to talk to him. They had neither met nor talked for a week already. He had called her many times for first two days but she had not received any calls. He was enjoying the company of another girl anyway and she somewhat had guessed that. She headed over to his flat, to clear all the matters and declare the official breakup. She unlocked the main door with the key, which she had taken earlier from his key ring; he hadn’t asked to return because he had his own piece of key. How thoughtful it was of him to let the door of his bedroom remain unlocked thinking nobody would come to his so-called private chamber at the noon and that main door was locked anyway. She caught him dating a different girl in his house, well, more than just a dating; their half-naked bodies were stuck together strongly as if a large amount of fevicol was used in between. Well, that surely was not any fevicol. She was only slightly shocked but much disgusted and so yelled, cursed some f-word...

When do you think you’ve gained some weight and realize those kilos plus in your body? I do when I see my stomach becoming a sphere crossing the line drawn from head to toe. And when it becomes a bit hard to button up my pants! You know what I mean.  I’d be happy if the extra kilos were muscles but not fat. This was bound to happen when all I’m doing for few months now is eating, sitting and sleeping! It literally became the right-on process of gaining kilos, and how I've been totally into it! Fat can be burnt and toned into muscles, I know, right? but I am lazy as hell to workout. I might not be alone in it! I don’t think any young man with relatively average or lean body looks good with this. Not a single t-shirt or shirt can hide that pretty round belly’s fat. I mean no offense to people with little more weight, believe me - you guys are handsome. I’m saying that if it has to be fat, it should be nice kinda fat, i.e. thoroughly distributed over all parts, not just th...

Why are a majority of women in our country backward? Is it because there is a male-dominated society in Nepal? Yes, to some extent. But so is the world overall. And whilst world is suffering from the problem, have we thought deeply about the issue and its causes and solutions? The current time is transition phase all over the world when there comes the question of gender equality. It definitely takes quite a time to eradicate the gender discrimination completely but to let time carry all the duties on its shoulder is a big no-no. Change must come first in us and in our way of thinking. Change must start from the home. This problem might seem lesser in frequency or priority in developed nations but in the developing countries like ours, it is the most serious social problem, from ages back to the moment now. So, are we really behaving like a human or just showing off our humane words on social networking sites? People are more educated and literate now. Media is much more powerfu...

Look at the fingers playing across the strings of guitar And them synchronizing with the lips over the flute And holding and juggling the bow on violin or fiddle And the fingers dancing on the keys of a piano The tunes, the melody, the music it resonates I can sense a skill, magic, art and song of its greatness. I see a diver diving into the river and floating on it Playing with the tides, flapping the hands and the feet To go with a flow and reach the other end, a skill required And in all this, there is an art and the glory of it. A potter’s hands and its movements with the smell of clay A footballer or cricketer or any player as they play An artists’ pencil or a painter’s brush Into the canvas, follows their hands’ playful way The sun and the moon, the time and the nature Their ritual of ending a night and calling upon a day Everything has a form and a structure of its own Anything golden or silver and the blues or grey Life's an art there, from a birth to ...

Many people in love often take a vow to live together and die together. May be it’s the influence of movies and love songs! Of course, they can live together but not all of them get lucky enough to die together. May be not anyone! I have seen such things in movies only. However, passing so many years together is really admirable. Sharing joys and grieves with each other, taking care of one another for a long time without getting love fade away might be a tough task but not impossible. Seeing old couples reminds me so. May be this very experience becomes the perks of being old when you reach that stage in your life. Looking into my own life, I have very loving grandparents who are now in their sixties and obviously, the natural rituals of oldness have been covering them for long time now. Whenever they are about to visit the hospital, my grandmother says, “ it is difficult for him to go alone, he cannot see properly; if I go with him, it will be easy to take care of him .”And I th...

You arrive at a theater and decide to watch a movie alone. You've a full day free and there are not one but three or four nice movies playing but you're aware that you've got money for just one movie ticket. Now, if it is said that not any one of them has your favorite actor or actress, and that you cannot walk away without watching movie what will you do? May be you go random. Or how will you pick up one?  You are buying a shirt. Same case, you are stuck between two or three really nice shirts but you've got a budget for only one. Nice colors, nice prints, nice designs, nice fit. How will you choose one? Dilemma, we call it, right? As far as I have come across some situations, I call it illusion. A Big One. When you get one, many other options appear at the same time but when you have not got one, not a single one pops out. Either nothing or everything! It creates confusion. Its like too much light creating a large glow making you unable to see properly.  ...

I just came across this beautiful video. This is amazing, heart-warming and true. As it says, child's future is worth every sacrifice. Isn't this the same thing our parents do? for us? Life is beautiful, folks. Even in the darkness, life does not loose its beauty, but it keeps on shining. Perceive, as you want, in your own way. For me, this short movie is brilliant. And very real. P.S. That little girl is very cute.
