Inch by Inch..

A man near my neighborhood would go on walks early in the mornings,as early as 4

He had developed a liking towards stones that would resemble a certain shape,a certain design, a certain character.
He would come back by 6 and show the stone to everyone in the family and also to the neighbours at times. 
He developed an intense passion for collecting the stones and highlighting with paint brush on them, what he would see. 
Maybe a Bird, a flag or something.


One day,I could hear him calling out for people to help him push a huge rock inside his house,when asked he told them this rock has an image of Sai embarked in it. 

People called him stupid and several names ,but ultimately helped him push the rock forward.

He was pretty satisfied seeing the rock inside the Veranda of his house.

His elder son asked him how did he managed to push forward the rock till the front of their house alone,the man told him that he used to push it forward inch by inch everyday,when he used to go to his morning walks and after 3 months he is able to bring it till his house! 


Though not impressed with the rock having Sai on it,the thing that needs to be marked with a marker here is that he tried every day  inch by inch to push that rock forward,Having faith that it would reach its destination someday! 

Its the same about our ownself..Pushing the limits inch by inch to reach where we see ourselves standing.

                                                Pani Puri  On a Wednesday evening i went with my husband to have pani puri, i wasn't much in the mood to have it but the husband wanted to and as he says i am the sarthi to him. We drove off in our WagonR and reached about 5 km away from our place near Birhana Road to have pani puri...oh so delicious pani puri, as my husband would call it. Now as I told you already I was in no mood to have it but I accompanied my husband so as I was standing near the thela of the gorgeous looking Pani Puri instantly my eyes went onto the gigantic hoarding of the marvellous Sonam Kapoor hoarding a necklace worth of crores and beneath that was a women standing in shattered clothes holding her frail daughter. There were at least 10 people gathered near the thela and eating the oh-so-lip-smacking puris but no one cared about that poor mo...

Chetan Bhagat To Local Train.

Before starting to blog,a very important question that demands an answer is,Who Am I?.To start off,my name is Pankhuri Nigam hailing from Kanpur,Uttar Pradesh.Have done a decent amount of education and still doing it.. Well,I was in Mumbai for the year,2017.The city of dreams,the city of wishes.Honestly Speaking,it taught me a lot..i have heard it never sleeps..witnessed it too..things that signify Mumbai are Local trains and Rains,Believe you me,you get your half of the stories either in trains or rains. Or sometimes..both. And very recently While travelling from Kandivali to Dadar i discovered that maybe i could write!,So i got down into Dadar purchased a very classy diary which says "Everyday is an Adventure" Pretty fancy,right? Just by looking at this diary,i felt as if Chetan Bhagat had entered into my body. Yes,imagination ka level!! So,the very night i sit down to write something it was 10:15pm,half an hour later the page was still blank and the eyes...

Meethi si Saheli

Rasgullo ki chaashni si, Dahi bhallo ki chatni si, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Bin baat ke hasne waali, Baat baat pe sisakne waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Angrezi me ladne wali, Dil ki baat maatrabhasha me karne waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Ghunghraale baalo me apne pal pal nakhun phasane waali, Hothon ke niche ke til par itraati ithlaane waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Shah Rukh Khan ki deewani wo, Mohobbatein si mohobbat karne waali, End Result me dhoka khake, Devdas si Dev banne waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Dibbe se Sheher me band, Sapne udaano ke bharne wali, Koshishe naakaam ho jaane par bhi, Saahas se ladne waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Practical me panne bharte hue khud ki yaad dilane waali, Exam room me zor zor se mera naam chillane waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. College ke baahar ki laiya chap chap karke khane waali, Ghar par Maggi utne hi pyaar se makkhan daalke banane waali, Meri ek meethi si Saheli.. Mujhe kuch ...
