Never stop...

Never stop trying as we cant pretend what may be served on our palate the very next moment! I completely understand that we try and try but sometimes it feels that our goal is still far, and we tend to quit! But why cant we think that yeah, now its the climax and try once more?! Who knows trying once more might actually lead you to the open doors😃👍🏻🍷 #Stay Motivated! Self motivation is the best one of all! 

There stood the jamun tree - Hrishikesh J C

There stood the Jamun tree.

Its true that we should not cling to the past. Because no matter how tightly we hold, it has already gone. But some memories from are childhood, from the golden days have an forever impression over our brain. One such impression on my brain was created by a Jamun tree.

It was just a normal tree for others but for me it was like my grandfather, who had seen my father since his birth, who had seen my grandfather from the day he bought that house and who had also seen me, not only seen me but had blessed me with the cool shade in summer, had provided me with delightful sweet berries and also soothing cool gusts of wind. 

I was a child who lived in my own fantasised world. 

I preferred to role play instead of going among the other people. The day i tasted its berries for the first time i fell deeply in love with that tree, and the taste of those berries. 

The tree was not in my property, it was on the other side of the road but i always considered it as my own property, only the tree. 

After my grandfather passed away, i was busy playing in the fields and the mountains all alone as my grandma used to be busy doing household works. 

When i had been there in the summer after my first grade, i observed something unusual. As always i went to pick up the fallen berries, when i went under the tree it shaded its leaves over me and along with them fell fresh berries, exclusive and sweet. I got scared and ran quickly to hide in the house. After narrating the unusual experience, my grandma said its your grandpa, who then stayed on the tree to take care of me. It was an absolute illogical thing but my innocent mind had a deep impact of thst sentence. 

I started to dare and go near the tree. The same thing happened each time. But my fear reduced eventually and i started talking with the tree.

I used to take a bucket of water daily while visiting the tree and pour it on its roots. I felt satisfied. That was the way to prove my friendship i thought.

I sat under the tree, resting in the cool shade. Todays air conditioner wont give that satisfaction which that cool gusts of winds gave.

In the fall, the tree would shed its leaves and there used to be heaps of leaves under it. It gave deep pleasure to jump and roll over the heaps of dried leaves. 

When the spring season was about to end, it bared flowers which used to spread the aroma in the air. It had an exclusive taste, so kids from the village used to see them while passing by and throw stones over it to make the berries fall, that did hurt the tree. Once i saw them throwing stones snd giggling, i dragged the huge air gun which i wasn't able to even lift at that time and it was even more than the height i was. But i dragged it all the way to the gate and shouted at them. Seeing the gun they ran away. 

I sometimes tried to think and discuss with the tree as from how many years it was there. I even searched for my grandpa and the trees eyes. 

I never ever found them. But my time did pass with pleasure and i enjoyed each moment spent near my jamun tree. 

As i went in the higher grades, i reduced going to the village. With the increasing burden of studies, the memories of jamun tree started to fade, until when i visited a few years ago after long time and was shocked to see the place vacant where my tree used to stand like a giant old aged grandpa, with the wrinkles of experience gained over the generations on its trunk. 

Unfortunately, as it had grew too huge and was obstacle for the lighting wires, it was cut down completely. Seeing its remnants, i had no words to say but the droplet of tear from my eye exclaimed it all. The memories floated in front of my eyes and remained forever as one of the good times. Still when i think of the exquisite taste of its berries and the eye catching beauty of the tree, it brings a smile on my lips. 

I have not seen the future, but i did one thing that day. I saw dried berries fallen on the ground in the heaps of the leaves. 

I planted it in my property this time so maybe in further times to come my future generations could have a memory of their own.

A sting of wisdom!

A sting of wisdom!

Last summer when i was disturbed and highly becoming obsessed with all the material pleasures i had. Some people had left me already, which resulted in my obsession for those things. 

I was always a gods kid and close to him no matter what situation i faced ever. So it was not like this that i dint knew this thing earlier but the agony in my heart had suppressed the true feelings somewhere.

That was the same lame night, i was on a walk with my father arguing over topic of the material things. He never agreed on what i had to say, well he was always right.

It was dark and i was walking looking at the sky, thinking of te future with the material things, when accidentally i put my leg over a poor scorpion. But natural in his reflex he sting my thumb of left leg. 

That was the most worst physical pain i ever experienced in my life. I just screamed once and my dad hit the scorpion but he dint die.

I ran home, for a moment i thought "its over now, time has come to leave the body" and i wanted that thing. 

I started breathing heavily and stayed calm, the pain was immense and very bad but i started viewing the pictures of lord Rama and chant is name, as i was seeing a path to reach to him. 

That night i felt him with me, sharing my pain. I did not yelled after that, i did not wasted a single tear for that immense pain i was experiencing. I just stayed quite chanting his name.

My mother had tied the knot wrongly to stop the poison, so instead the poison was almost reached above my belly. My legs were cold and blue. 

I was brought to the hospital for the first time in my life. The doctor quickly pierced the needle in my veins and started a saline. I was weak and started seeing the light.

Doc warned me not to close eyes no matter what. It will be fine. But i was becoming weaker and weaker.

Everyone was puzzled as i was silent and did not confess my pain and also they were scared as what will happen. 

I was constantly visualising my god. They had arranged an oxygen mask in the room. 

At that moment when my blood pressure was almost reached to 200 and i was on that near to death bed, i thought over. What was the use of all that material things i possessed? I loved my bike, my phone, laptop but all those things were going to be here itself. I wasn't even able to take my body with me. It was just the real me that is my soul who is forever was going to go to god. 

All the regrets and mistakes of life floated in front of my eyes. I realised the importance  of time, spirituality and also i realised that it was very foolish to love the material pleasures over my life. 

Many things i realised on that bed. Eventually after 3 salines entering in my body. I started feeling better. 

But before i die i thought of apologising my two friends whom i had hurt a year ago. I typed the messages and sent them. 

But with gods grace i was almost fine the next day when, i got a reply from my one friend. He was worried and came to meet me the next day, we talked for a while and everything was back to normal. 

I got discharged in 3 days, three real long days. For the first time i had been admitted in the hospital and for the first time i experiences a total seven salines and twelve injections. 

So i had a lot of time to think over and god gifted me the desired wisdom that day or he just brought the hidden wisdom to my vision. 

I felt god that day. When i was out of the hospital, it was a total different me. 

Thats why i call it a sting of wisdom.

And dad dint killed that scorpion, he was there beside my bed in a bag whole night fainted, the next day when he woke up, he was left free, but far from my house😁

She is a girl of my dreams

She is the dream girl!

They say that daydreams always stay in mind but there are some dreams which make an impression over the brain so deep that it's impossible to forget them or erase them. Its the story of one such dream! 

I gulped a glass of water, layed on the bed and closed my eyes, to open again in the world of dream.

I felt lighter and heard the sound of Seagels and sea waves clashing on the rocks by the shore. 

I slowly opened my eyes, i was on some long lost shore but a pleasent shore. There was no one up till my eye sight reached. I walked on the gleaming hot sand bare footed. And i saw a walking track, so i climbed on it. 

I was looking here and there when,

"Hrishikesh!" She called me;

I turned around just to be mesmerised by that person.

"You?!" I stood flabbergasted. 

"Come have a seat, theres a vacant place beside me" she smiled;

"The whole beach is vacant" i said and setteled down, "just like my heart" i added.

"But i am present at both the places" she said having a sip of coffee. 

I gazed at her. 

"Are you real?" I asked her;

"Absolutely not, its just a dream! Here have this coffee, your favourite coffee" she smiled;

We sat quite, feeling each sip of coffee on that vacant beach

"I still feel, you are not supposed to be in my dream, i don't know what kind of person i am, i just cant pretend to be someone who i can never be"

"Were you pretending up till now?"

"No that was completely me!"

"Thats it! When i accept your good also i do the flaws. Don't worry i will find out the best of you." 

"You will?"

"Yes i will"

"But what about the diseases?" 

"If anything happens to me, will you abandon me?" 

"Never"

"Same is the thing with me"

I was stunned, she was about to pinch me.

"Please don't, let me feel this, hold on... Hold just a little longer - i want this dream to go on and never to end, cause its real sad when you love immensely a person you cant marry... Let me live this moment at least in my dreams cause i am afraid this cant turn into reality."

"Please stay positive & eventually things will workout"

"Our skies don't correlate" 

"They will, will make them"

"Yes we will - someday" 

The alarm started ringing and there seemed to rise an earthquake. 

"Always there for you" the wind whispered in my ears and she wasn't there.

Cause i was wide awake to switch off the alarm. 

Sometimes some night dreams don't let us sleep again. She was such a dream, the girl of my dreams.

She is the girl of my dreams!

She is the Dream Girl.

They say that daydreams always stay in mind but there are some dreams which make an impression over the brain so deep that it's impossible to forget them or erase them. Its the story of one such dream! 

I gulped a glass of water, lied on the bed and closed my eyes, to open again in the world of dream.

I felt lighter and heard the sound of Seagels and sea waves clashing on the rocks by the shore. 

I slowly opened my eyes, i was on some long lost shore but a pleasent shore. There was no one up till my eye sight reached. I walked on the gleaming hot sand bare footed. And i saw a walking track, so i climbed on it.

"Are you real?" I asked her;

"Absolutely not, its just a dream! Here have this coffee, your favourite coffee" she smiled;

We sat quite, feeling each sip of coffee on that vacant beach. 

"Wow... Inspirational scenario - i feel to write something... Something silly." I said;

"Then go ahead, here write down what you want, am there to appraise your work." She said;

"You there? But i can be irritating and write quite lengthy " i confessed;

"No problem for me, go ahead" she said with a supporting smile, on her lips.

Suddenly there was a very high tide and the salty water splashed some sand on my face.

"Oh now my face will get dull!" I said;

"Dont worry, have this tissue and anyways i dont bother about the looks" she said wiping the sand over my face.

I started to believe.

" are you hungry hrishikesh? I have some spaghetti packed in." She asked

"No, i am on a diet, if you could have some juice i would have" i said;

"Oh common its just a dream" she said;

"Alright but that will increase my weight" i frowned.

"I said right , i don't bother about looks"

We shared the spaghetti.

 "Have wrote this, hows it?" I asked;

She took the note and read it egerly with all her interest.

"Entirely good, just some flaws in language, i am marking the corrections ok" she said;

"Yeah definitely, i wish if someone hd corrected me earlier my life would have been different"

"At Least  forget your past in your dream! And am there right. To correct you!" She said;

"Indeed, with you by my side i will go a long way."

"I hope you do"

"I hope too"

"I still feel, you are not supposed to be in my dream, i don't know what kind of person i am, i just cant pretend to be someone who i can never be"

"Were you pretending up till now?"

"No that was completely me!"

"Thats it! When i accept your good also i do the flaws. Don't worry i will find out the best of you."

A Rose & Kiss

A Rose & A Kiss!

The beatific red rose glittered in the shiny morning rays of the sun. He was standing in the rose gardens. Monitoring each rose carefully and appreciating the beauty of each rose individually, he caressed each petal of each rose. It was very hard for him to decide which rose to prick and cherish it forever. It was in fact hard to even prick a rose. They seemed so divine and full of bliss. 

Thinking over and over he sat under an oak tree, resting in the meadows.The cool gusts of wind made him close his eyes. But after an eye blinking moment, his ears were notified with a sound that he heard, from the garden of those gleaming roses.   

As a warrior by nature, his hands reached the sword on his belt. A swashing  sound of the sharp edged sword was whispered in the air. And he walked with heavy footsteps to the direction of sound, that was the west direction. 

He bowed slightly to left, at first he saw nothing, so he turned back but then before a blink of an eye he realised there was someone more gleaming than the roses standing near by.

He turned to look at that pretty lady, by seeing her aesthetic smile, his sword was slipped from his hand and he stood flabbergasted gazing at that pretty girl. When she smiled it seemed as if the red gleaming roses turned green with envy.

He was engaged in her by seeing the prepossessing inexplicable beauty she was gifted with. Butterflies were flying over her hands, but it seemed as if they were right in his heart. His heart fluttered with high pace. 

He walked towards her. He as a soldier also had a small amount of boyish charm gifted. She too looked at him with somewhat same expressions. 

"Hello pretty lady, your beauty is inexplicable" he said to her in a velvet voice;

She blushed and did downcast her eyes.

"Thank You" she bowed to him slightly, with the blush on her cheeks and said in her nightingale voice.

"Would you like to tap feet along with me, on this sound of nature?" He proposed a dance;

She couldn't say no.

And they danced. The roses peeped while the heavenly pair danced in the meadows. Even the clouds set aside so that sun could see them dancing. Birds began to sing and the wind blew more melodiously. 

After a ball dance of a few moments, both of them stood still  and gazed into each others eyes. Her eyes sparkled like pearls and he was able to resist the shine. 

Slowly their lips came closer and it was a divine moment when a lifetime memory was created. It was hard to understand but it was a love among two souls.

She blushed and stood with her eyes casting down. He turned aside snd pricked the most beautiful rose that gleamed and slightly pushed her chin upward and gazing into her eyes said, "My lady, this is the rose i need you to cherish always as a souvenir of my love. I am a warrior and will have to abide by the duty. But promise to return this way, just for you. When i return i promise to stay forever with you." 

"Oh charming warrior, i am the fairy of this meadow. And as per thee said i shall loose my beauty if i relate with a human." She said sadly;

He thought over.

"My lady, beauty is not what it looks outside, it needs to come from within.

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within"

Listening to this she smiled again.

"Just cherish this rose and i shall cherish the kiss and i promise to return this way, just be there with the rose no matter how you would be." He said with his back straight;

He looked in her eyes for one more time, he whistled and called over the horse and rode with full energy to fight the enemies and return back to her.

As promised he returned to her, deeply wounded.

There was an ugly women standing folding her hands back.

"Miss have you seen my lady anywhere?" He asked gently;

He was suffering with the pain of his wounds of war.

The women blushed and showed him the rose. At first he was stunned but then he remembered that divine moment spent with her and his promise.

He smiled, embraced her with the same love filled in his heart and kissed her forehead.

Suddenly there was bright light from above and winds blew with very high pace. The vision became blurred and he could soon see nothing. To prevent his eyes from getting hurt from the storm which started soon, he closed them. He felt the storm very hard but did not leave her hand. And soon it was at rest. 

He slowly opened his eyes to see he was amused to see no wounds on his body and the same young fairy by his side. She smiled and just embraced him. He held the rose along with her and kissed her and promised to stay by her side, as it was u folded what had happened. And they lived in the meadows forever with a rose and a kiss cherished always.

Like the one dream!

Sometimes fellas, it happens that you are uncertain about something but yet you tend to think about that thing over and over. At such times the uncertainty becomes a certainty in the dream you see. 

Each one of us might have had experienced such dream or will for sure, but that is the dream which makes us feel that we shouldn't wake up ever so that the dream goes on and on. 

But then the alarm rings and keeps your dream shattered into pieces and those pieces are lost so far in some deepest corners of mind that its really hard to join them again and feel that dream again.

But what remains with us is just a memory and a dream, to feel that dream again. Somethings happen only once, like that one dream.

I will be there...

"On some fine day, if you're walking on the street and suddenly it starts raining, then know that I will be in the droplets of rain; if in winter the breeze troubles you, blowing your tendrils of hair, then it will be me. I will always and forever be in your life. Even death can't part us. I promise. I just want you to have little faith in me and all our troubles will seem tiny."

Stained window!

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.

A simple smile!

Time comes when you are irritated, feel dejected, feel like its the dooms day but as i said earlier life is not easy so you will have to keep calm. I used to be the same earlier to but some situations change us totally, some big storm comes our way drags us apart and if we survive we reach the other side but wiser than earlier and a thorough knowledge of people. So what i do now is, yes indeed situations arise like that, but i immediately try to give a genuine broad smile remembring some most idiotic thing i desire to do. That makes me laugh in worst of the situations. To quite is very easy, to frown is easier but it requires a big heart to gulp the disrespect, the abasement, the insult and give a genune smile right from the bottom of the heart. Dont smile to showoff to someone pretending you are very happy, be the same in every situation and watch the dance of the reacting mokeys which you will meet in every different phase of your life. What i am saying is that dont bother of others, be true to yourself and smile for yourself. Laugh out loud from the heart, it will reduce the stress and give you the power to fight back! If you can give a genuine smile in worst of your situations, believ me you can do any bloody thing! Self motivation is the best motivation.

Thoughts are free but action must be cuffed.

Learn to fight back!

The people who say life is easy are loosers. If life is easy then we can think what efforts they have done because without hardships there is no success. Life is not a joke dont play with it. Now days i have seen a lot of incidents that youth generation commit suicide because of bullshit reasons. I dont care how serious the reason might be but one should not commit suicide. Yes we get life a thousand time but not always we get the same body, theres a chance that you might be a cockroach in next life, so the point is it is better to enjoy a humans life as you have got it. In whose life there arent hardships, look at the crippled people, look at the people who live in slums, look at the people who are handicapped, it they can fight then damn why cant we. Just think for a second when a mother is giving birth to a child what pain she passes from, it is the worst i guess worse than a scorpion stinge, if she fights so hard to get you out in the world then bloddy hell who the hell are you to decide what to do of your life?! Is it why your mother suffers so mich pain to bring you in this world so that she could see you loosing and commit suicide just vecause a damn girl rejected you in an age which even isnt  appropriate. Not at all, no matter what problems you might be facing in your life,  no matter however times you might fall, get up and have faith in god, keep fighting and one fine day i promise you will win and so finally you can sleep on your death bed with no worries in your mind, and you can say you lived your life. 

Fight back!

When some one hurts you!

When people hurt you don't break relations with them instead be there to show off your achievements. - #HrishikeshJC #Quotes 

Its morning already!

Sometimes you sit idle listening to some music which calms your mind. You cant sleep sometimes, you just sit and explore the cavities of your mind and heart. You see a lot of faces in their, a lot of memories good and bad, you are so busy in this journey that we even don't come to know that the suns come up, and the darkness has over. Then you look flabbergasted at the pleasant  morning and the rising sun. Like that one night is life, we are so busy in peeping into our past or thinking about future that we forget to respect the value of the present moment, we frown over the moment which can be better for something that cannot be changed. And by the time we realise this its already morning! So better to explore the ennumorous possibilities of spending the present moment in hand valuably and making some memories out of it, some real good memories!
