The Garden of Dreams


The Garden of Dreams

Ever gone through a situation where you saw your dreams shattered on the floor?

All of us have dreams and we want to live those dreams. Let's start from the beginning.
A desire develops in our hearts. With time that desire, that wish becomes so strong that we want to fulfill it. We are ready to do anything to fulfill that wish which has now become a dream. We plant that dream in our heart. 
What is a dream?
“Dream is not what you see in sleep. Dream is something which doesn't let you sleep". This definition was given by our former President Late Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam. 
My version is a bit emotional one- 
"Dream ia a seed when sown in our hearts develop into a plant and then tree. Once it is fully developed it starts giving fruits and flowers which make our lives beautiful".
What is heart?
The heart is a muscular organ which pumps blood through our body." This was the biological definition of heart. But there's one more definition which is not given in books.
"Our heart is a garden of emotions. When we love someone we give them a place in our hearts. When someone betrays us the heart goes through the consequences. When we see a dream it is automatically planted into our hearts."
The heart nourishes the dreams with emotions. We start imagining ourselves in a life where our dreams have come true. We are ready to do all the possible (sometimes even the impossible) efforts to make our dream come true. We get an aim in life. We are happy making all the efforts for our dreams. Everything looks like a disney movie.
But ...but...but... the time for a new entry in our story. Till now the characters of our dreams were - we, our heart and our dreams but now someone is knocking on the door. We open the door and a new character enters- reality.
What is reality?
"Reality is an important part of life, rather say life and reality are the same things. The reality of life is it never goes according to you."
Reality is not what is shown in our movies but the exact opposite of it. After the entry of this character everything changes. We try to convince ourselves that "life is still a Disney movie...life is still a Disney movie...life is..." but then reality hits us hard and wins the battle by making us realize "Life is NOT a Disney movie". 
Our garden (the Heart) which was till now nourishing and protecting our dreams is hit hard by a storm. It tries really hard to protect the plants which are still not grown into trees but fails. The storm is gone and the leaves of the plant are shattered. The heart keeps those leaves safe in a belief that one day those leaves will grow into a tree, the garden will be restored and become beautiful again. But there are only a few leaves which can grow into trees, or else their fate is to be hidden in our hearts forever.

Respect Durga

Respect Durga   Durga puja is the festival of respecting and worshiping Durga. Generally, we forget to respect her and end up only worshiping her.  I saw a girl of 13-14 years near a puja pandal. And mind it she was wearing a kurti with leggings. She was happy, it was evident from her face that it was her favorite festival. The place was congested but her eyes found their way to look at Durga’s idol and admire her. Durga, a female which everyone of us worship. She has a trishul in one of her hands. She is believed to be serene and composed until and unless someone tries to lay hands on her dignity. She uses her trishool to protect the world. While the girl expressed admiration for Durga, she felt someone trying to lay hands on her self-esteem. She was too afraid to turn back and face what was happening, so she chose to move ahead with her mother.  She again sensed a touch which felt like a thorn. This time she turned back hoping he’ll be shamefaced of what he did to a girl who must be

The Desolated Soul

  The Desolated Soul You know it's hurting when the smile has abandoned your way; You know it’s hurting when you don’t have words to say. You know it’s hurting when you spend all day sleeping; You know it’s hurting when you can’t put an end to weeping. It is the chapter of our lives which some of us have left behind; It is the chapter of our lives which some of us are still writing. Isn't this an ordinary depiction of normal human survival which some of us have left behind and some are still trying? Hurting is a part of life like gaiety. The only difference is the first one comes effortlessly and refuses to pass. You have to endeavor to heal and still there will be a trigger point which may ruin all your efforts. The second one is arduous to bring off and goes within a blink of an eye. How does pain feel like? It feels cold even if you have swaddled yourself with a duvet. It does not let you sleep even after shutting your eyes for an eternity.  When you find yourself hurting, y
