Before It's Too Late..!

He saw the other boy from the balcony in envy.Though he was dressed in much better clothes than him,had the big room to himself and was served sweet everyday on the 12 chaired dining table.He had the dining table too all for himself,on the other hand the boy he was looking at didnt had a dining time at home but would eat his meals with his parents,siblings.

The only difference between them were of Class,people said. But there was a lot more, One was allowed to play with the kids the other one had to be under security all the time.
The security guards could never match up with being friends for him.
He would go to school in expensive car and would watch the other boy ride a cycle,enjoying the fresh air morning has!

Feelings of Jealousy were mutual here..
One thought the other one was lucky because of the luxuries he was provided in life and the other one always considered playing hide and seek with friends in the park luxurious.

The only thing common between them were that they both were children and had dreams to become one another,they would be happy otherwise but upon seeing each other would crave for what they dont have.

Life is a lot like this for everyone,people often want what they see on someone else's body or in someone else's house eccetera eccetera.
Envy tends to be a negative emotion,why can't we be happy in what we have?
Because we forget what we have in that very moment,we forget how lucky we are if we have two legs,hands,get food even if we sleep on the floor..we have the floor atleast.

Just about 2 weeks back,I saw someone dumping a litre of milk because it was stale,the lady of the house was pretty normal as if nothing happend but the househelp saw the whole scenario with great interest and could only say in the end
"She is throwing up the milk i have not even purchased a litre of it ever,i have to manage with 250 grams of it daily.
As normal it was for the Lady,the other one knew the equal importance of it,because she didnt had it.
Why wait for something to have an absence of itself before we realise the importance of it?
Why do someone has to die before we can go and say to him "you mean a lot"?
Why does extinction has to be the root cause of realisation!?
Can't we just love the moment, live In the moment and be happy about it!?

                                                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...

Barbie Dolls

Back in the days what ten year olds used to do was eat, play, climb the trees, run while having no sense of what to wear and how. What then was appreciable was a smile decorated on their souls. The simpler times, the “us” times.. not just “me or you” times. Why am I saying like that? A few days ago I was alone and bored at the Airport and desired to jog around the gate numbers solely for the entertainment purpose. I witnessed many brands side lined that costs you a bomb. While crossing a jewel shop I saw a bunch of small girls standing near the newspaper stand and whispering something to each other. I gave a quick smile to them, thought to myself “ kids, what an amazing life they have!..” and moved forward . Or should I say tried to move on because I was keen to know what childish talks they were clinging onto. And luck supported me as whole heartedly as the tassel of my stole got stuck among the jarring lines of the same stand. 5 Minutes or Close Later… I am moving ...

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...
