THIS WORLD....

This world is an INN

People come and go

who stays here for long,

pays the HEAVIEST BILL.


This world is a RENTED HOUSE

HE MAKES US REALIZE

THAT NOW its time TO GO.



The world is a bouquet of flowers

with different fragrances and hues

which are also not permanent as ur life , dear YOU

THIS WORLD IS TRANSIENT

remember this and never forget, dear YOU.

BEAUTY CREAMS FOR MEN

I WAS CHALLENGED BY ONE OF MY FRIENDS..HE WANTED TO SEE WHETHER I CAN WRITE ON THIS TOPIC OR  NOT..SO HERE I AM



When this concept of beauty creams for men came up...it was something unusual..but once I read an interview by Shehnaz Hussain who was the first one to launch this product for men. She said she only started up the fairness cream for men because many men wrote to her that when she is launching products for beauty care for women ..why not men?????????
And then men's fairness cream came out in the market..and the number of sales shoooted up....really true..men started using it and still they are...from college going to adults..and what is wrong in it? 
When women have the right to look good and feel good..then why not men? The film actors, models use it and we have the answer from the them...its their job to look good and FAIR!!!
and I say the commoners also have the right to look good or to say have a fair colour..If the female gender is applying hundreds of face packs, fairness creams, sunscreen lotions to protect their skin and look fair and good.. I say why not men? They also want to look good. Some say that men using fairness creams...it sounds funny..Some say they are obsessed with their looks. Some say they want to  impress the fairer sex..
The point is, it is not funny..because many use fairness creams because sometimes they get the feeling I wish I was fair..and this feeling comes because of the bias based on the colour of skin.So why will they not use fairness creams then?...they do and they will..and the product sales are still high..
So men using fairness creams..not a bad thing..you have the right to look the way u want.. but do not be ashamed of your skin colour..beacuse the colour is not so important.
Remember "beauty lies within."

THE WORLD OF EXPERIENCE

We take birth in this world which seems to be beautiful but when born then only we cry n sulking in our mother's lap very soon realize that this world is not a happy one!
I wanted to become a good human being, a good friend , a good confidante and wanted to earn many 'good' positions for myself..but I found myself aloof in this world which I call the world of experience! The opposite is happening with me all my virtues are turning vices.
I am scared I don't want to be punished by God and earn the SEVEN DEADLY SINS - (wrath, pride, envy, avarice, gluttony, lust, sloth.)
But this world of experience is a selfish world, everyone has become selfish, greedy and we all are running to earn the seven deadly sins..sad but true we are making a hell on heaven and the paradise earth as some may call it has become the world of sufferings and we all are becoming negative even if we try to remain positive and humane.
I don't blame anyone and its the story of everyone who reads my blog..Think over it.

A PLEA FOR SEX WORKERS

Well Iam penning down my views and reflection of my thoughts when I dwell on the plight of sex workers. The title is quite suggestive that I am supporting sex workers. Neither am I sympathizing nor showing pity for someone, but I just want people to see the magnitude of the problem with eyes wide open. Thousands of women were barred in jails from the bars in mumbai n nearby places. These women are now homeless, jobless, and the indian judiciary is not even executing any plans for their support. Nobody is thinking how these women will earn their bread? How will they run their families?
Most of the women are forced and indulge in this sex trade only for money as there is no one to run the house or the male members are drunkards or just want money. Thus, there is no way out left for women.
Films like Chandni Bar and Chameli really make us think about women who go through this life. The situations may be varied, but we should see the gravity of the problem and that is to provide a backup.
Either the government should legalize the bar dancers getting into the sex trade because closing bars is not at all a solution.
This trade is going on behind the walls. Girls are kidnapped, they are forcefully dragged into this dirty world. Pimps make them do this dirty job, serving men with their bodies. It is a disastrous problem and the government, people and every educated citizen should give it a thought and atleast give some solution to this menace.
P.S. - Do not be biased or orthodox in your thinking. It is a reality and we all have to face it so when ever one comes across anything related to this issue, one should be practical and rational bacause we live in a democracy and democracy runs by the people, for the people and of the people.

MY DREAM

FOR THE FIRST TIME

I SAW YOU IN MY DREAM ;

I SPOKE TO YOU

IN MY DREAM ;

I CONFESSED YOU

FOR ALL THE MISTAKES,

IN MY DREAM ;

YOU HELD YOUR HAND AND BLESSED ME,

IN MY DREAM ;

THE WORLD IS AT YOUR FEET

OH ! MY LORD !

I WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN

I PROMISED , ALL MIGHTY !

IN MY DREAM ;

SO , THIS WAS MY SPECIAL EXPERIENCE WITH LORD

AS I SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL

AND I CALL IT MY SWEET DREAM.

IF I HAD WINGS OF MY OWN!

I wish I would fly,

To the earth where

Love and peace prevails;

I wish I would fly,

To the sky where

The flowers of brotherhood blossom;

I wish I would fly,

To the heaven where

The clouds of serenity and divinity roam around;

I wish I would dive,

Into the ocean where

The spontaneity of water lies!

The day I was born

Was it December or January?

Was it Sunday or Monday?

Was it the evening or morning?

when I the Great was born.

My tweenie – weenie dresses were sewn by my grandma.

Will it be a girl or a boy?

These were the confusions and predictions made by my uncles and aunts

when I the Great was born.

Everybody was praying and waiting for the cute little healthy baby;

Then the moment of excitement, thrill and joy entered the hearts of all

As I the Great was born.

So , it was the morning of Monday and 30th of January;

WHEN I THE GREAT WAS BORN!
