Make them Smile a Little More.!!

A random park..two stranger kids come in front of each other..

Kid 1: Hey you don't have you ball to play?

Kid 2 : We have, it is with my brothers over there.

Kid 1 : Ohh.. you share your ball with your brothers? I would never do that.. I have my own.

Kid 2: We all brothers share all our toys.We are one big family.

Kid 1: Why are your cloths so clumsy?

Kid 2 : Maybe because i have played more than you outside the house.

Kid 1 : Perhaps you should ask your family to get you new wardrobe.

Kid 2 : We all share each others clothes. SO basically we get to wear new clothes often. Plus it is fun sharing stuff.

Kid 1 : Which is your school?

Kid 2 : Shardashram school. What about you?

Kid 1 : I go to Ryan International.

Kid 2 : I have heard they have a really big playground? and many computers and school buses too.

Kid 1 : Yes they do. Hey why dont you come to my place? We can play video games together.

Kid 2 : Wow. You do have video game. Even my family is planning to get a Television. We all brothers will watch cartoons. We are going to have fun.
I have to go now..brothers are waiting.

Kid 1 : Ok. bye


Kid 2 runs back to the group of other few kids and starts playing with them.
Kid 1 looks at him and asks his father who are these kids..are they all brothers?
His father replied,
"Son, they are not brothers by blood but they are brothers by their love for each other. They are from "Ashalaya - The orphanage". 

These kids do not have their parents staying with them.
They live with each other, eat together, play together, share food, share stuff and thus they are so happy having each other".

I went to Ashalaya today. My family had sponsored the dinner for them. It was my first time to go there. All the kids had gathered for dinner. Staff made them sit in rows.
They chanted the prayers and food was served. It was their favourite biryani. Now this was a moment of happiness. I was touched just by looking at their little faces.
The smallest thing we did which brought smiles to their faces.
The smallest act made their eyes shine more.
I appreciate the way these kids adjust with each other despite their differences like brothers and sisters. Sharing whatever you have is the most basic yet oh so important lesson of life is taught in there and is imprinted on their mind.

No sequence or number of words can appreciate the work people are doing at Ashalaya.
The underprivileged kids need help. Ashalaya's staff needs help too. It could be monetary, in person, clothing, food, school uniforms etc.
Tiniest act by you can play a bigger part in some kid's life. 

Disclaimer : I am not directly or indirectly connected with Ashalaya. I am just playing my little part in making their efforts reach more people who are willing to help.

This is one of those incidents that touched my heart , hence this post. Sharing the website link of Ashalaya.

Our story..

When it all started,
we were not aware,
what we were destined to,
and it will take us where..

We met,we became mates,
and there was nothing in between,
but my heart had told me,
that you are only its queen..

You didn't know what was going on,
and why was i like that,
as a caring and nice friend,
but it was not a fact..

Inside of my head,
you were already my girl,
it was just about telling you,
that you are my world..

I dared, i stared,
i told you all my thoughts,
but you were still so scared,
and you had your own doubts..

As the time went,
i poured out my heart,
and even you came to know,
that we just can't be apart..

I promise you baby,
you will always be in my heart,
the bond that we will make,
even god won't be able to break..

5 AM thoughts..

I am missing you a lot,
It is neither a night nor a day,
There is something wrong with now,
That is why I am awake this way..

My mind is running through past memories,
Moments when you were close to my heart,
Even I could feel your heartbeats,
The time when no one could make us apart..

The times when we sat for hours together,
Your fingers entangled with mine,
Words were never necessary,
We just used to talk with eyes..

When we walked on the rainy evening,
Getting wet still enjoying it,
Each moment was worth a million,
As if it was fairyland and not just a simple street..

When we hugged like no one to care,
Like no one to stare, like no one around,
I am really wondering now,
Had you listened to my inside’s sound..

Even the time when I touched your lips with mine,
They tasted nothing but the heaven,
There was high tide of blood inside my heart,
Believe me I was completely shaken..

The only wish and only desire,
To live with you and to die in your arms,
No matter how painful it will be,
For me it will be one of the charms..

In the morning when you will read this all..
I am sure it will sound very funny,
But I know how I spent last night,
Waiting for it to become sunny..

Freedom..

How do you think,
You can stop me from flying,
By locking in the cage,
Can you prevent me from dying?

God has given me wings,
I have power  in them,
To fly above the clouds,
But you should feel some shame..

It is just that your power is more,
And you are given a more brain,
But still I feel  pity for you,
Because there is nothing you have gained..

This is just a simple cage,
There is much more I am destined to,
But I won’t cry like you,
Cause I am capable of making it through..

Though my own freedom is lost,
I am happy for my friends,
Praying that they shouldn’t get the cage,
Till their last breath,till their life ends..

You will never get to taste,
The happiness of dying in freedom,
Last moments under the sky,
With no wish left undone..

Open this door once,
And you will know what I can do,
Your physical power will be negligible,
Because God will be on my side too..

Life has changed in an amazing way..

I was the king, but had no kingdom,
I was a bird, but had no wings,
I used to sing , but wasn’t a singer
I was a liar, with all those sins..

I used to think that I was happy,
I used to think that I was strong ,
But the day when we knew each other,
 I came to know that I was wrong..

Pairs are made in Heaven,
That is what all the people say,
Since when I met you baby,
Life has changed in an amazing way..

Your smile,your laughter,
Every little thing in your life,
has become so important for me,
that I can go for the edge of knife..

Emotions are damn true,
Feelings are so pure,
Now I am so sure that ,
This sweet disease has no cure..

I don’t want to get out of this now,
You are a potter and I am your clay,
Since when I met you baby,
Life has changed in an amazing way..

I still remember , that first kiss,
First time your head on my chest,
First time you completely in my arms,
Oh god, this is what that called is best..

The road ahead of our love,
Will lead us to destination,
I won’t leave your hand,
Let there be any complication..

You are mine and I am yours,
I am here, come what may,
Since when I met you baby,
Life has changed in an amazing way..

No complaints, and  I am loving it in this way,
You have changed my life in this amazing way….


 
[ This post is dedicated to a very special person, on a very special day.]

Before i die....

One thing i want to share
which remained untold
throughout my life
i guess its time to unfold..


There was no fear as such 
and doubts were none
but would you take me wrong?
after hearing this one..


I have been a pauper
and you were like a queen
so the fragrance of your innocence
could never meet my sin..

These are my last moments 
where breathing is too hard
the only face that i would love to see
is yours with that shining eyes..


Before my heart stops beating
before all my insides turn to ash
before the hell takes me to its lungs
let me tell you how important you are..


Now when i am going
to give myself all the pains
no point in hiding the fact
that i have always loved you Ms Rains....

Promise..

You asked me,
to break the habit,
which is bad for me,
to which i am addict..


With which i may get the pain,
without which i will get you,
but still i don't know why?
i can't promise what you asked me to..


So i am here, lying in between,
trying to balance, trying not to look awry,
I don't know whether i will be able to make,
the promise that i cant keep, which cant even deny..


I am standing here,
one feet on one stone,
hold my hand,hug me baby,
help me to calm these storms,


Surely i will come out of this,
we both will have the new dawn,
because i just need some time,
to save myself from getting drowned..




So i am here, lying in between,
your world and my world,
I don't know whether i should promise or not,
because i may or may not be able to keep my word....
