Destined to Sojourn

Destined to Sojourn


And I know you will leave..
For you are destined to sojourn


The dark tunnel that I travel,
With inmates that I wander,
Sullen rubrics all over the the wall.


And I feel you

Like the fresh breeze,
In the summer afternoon.

Like a guiding light,
In the dusky bridge.

Like a known,
In unknown.

Some odd day,
I wonder
I seek
I beseech
To unravel you.
And I quit

I quit
to unravel you.
I embrace to cherish,
Your ephemerality.

Beautiful is not always stable… Beautiful and as I say this word, something must strike your mind. Be it nature, love, family and friends. what makes these things beautiful are that they are forever. Beauty as I thought is pleasing, soothing, mesmerizing and of course stable.  As I try and delve this feeling of beautiful. I find myself hanging in the sky. All things I thought to be beautiful have changed. I remember how badly I wanted some things in my life to stay just the same forever, but it changed. Everything changed. All the time I connected these two words beauty and stability, I thought this is it! ooh such a naive I was! Stability is a lie. Nothing is stable. I am changing, the syllabus in my school is changing, relationship status is changing, and even the mountains are shifting. Perhaps no body is at rest. Confused, I realized only change is constant.  This acceptance was hard!  For a girl, who has changed her school every 5 years, making new frien

My experiment with Rs5.                                            By Prerna Mishra                        (written in college 5th sem, 2013) In last 31 years, they have only asked for your 2 minutes, now as an added topping with just Rs5 in your pocket.  In the interiors of Jharkhand, a true Indian village lacking in almost everything, where survival is with bare minimum resources, Life goes on because it has to. A few government schools established under “Sarva Siksha Abhiyan” shabby building, teacher sits outside the classroom with hand-fan. I saw Students having their cherished meal. A big bus carrying thousands of packets, parked outside the school. Yes it was Maggi; these children were having and of course free of cost. Mid-day meals have perhaps become very boring for these children! They too deserve the fun, which city children enjoy out of Maggi.    An initiative taken by Nestle to feed thousands of school going children in villages spread across the country.

Girl, Go & Grow

Girl, Go & Grow She chose the burning road, the different air, the puzzle that no one dares! I hear the reason they throw at you- “girls can’t”, “get back home”, “time up”. I know the reason you tell yourself. I don’t feel your pain but your passion roars telling its story. She crawls, walks, runs, falls, but refuses to stop. She embraces the pain. That girl goes and grows through pain. Friends, she doesn’t have them. she knew it would be a deserted path. Ordinary girl, no extraordinary skill set, but dreams. She runs forward, detaching herself from this breed. Breaking the chains, she reaches out to new horizon. Through that sceptic glasses, the world would never see the real her. Of all the persons, I met on earth. She is the craziest of the bunch. She is restless and persistent She is weak and strong She is frightened and is fighting. I watch her on battle field, to find whose reason will win, to know how long hope kept her heart beating, to feel he
