Letter to 2014

                                                                                                                                           31/12/2014

Dear 2014,
With a heavy heart i bid u farewell,for u have been a great Support for all 365 days.When i go back to January First and Compare it to today, 31st December,i am filled with Tears of Joy and Sadness.You were the Twenty Third Year of My Life and The Roller Coaster Ride of this Year was indeed full of Struggle,but today when i turn my head to look behind,i smile of Contentment and feel Blessed to Live My Year Successfully.May be i did not have Big fat celebrations,but i Learnt to Create Happiness,You Taught me to Seek Joy and Enjoy Life even in Despair.I am very Grateful to you,because your Each Day,Reminded me of an Omnipresent Power of the Almighty that Strengthened my Trust on Faith.You hold a Special Significance in My Life because this Year my Mother got Cured of an Illness she was struggling with since Past three Years.My Mom's illness gave me the Lesson's to understand the Fineness of Life and you were like a helpful Supervisor while i was giving the Biggest Test of my Life.
I made a number of Mistakes,You rectified it with Passing Days.Whenever i Lost Hope you shined the Next Day full of Lessons and Guided my Every Step.You Made Me More Mature,More Responsible and Much more Practical.
I am filled with Gratitude for all the Opportunities you provided me to Climb the ladder of my Career.You made me Realize that Never Leave any Stone Unturned,Because what He plans for us is Way Better than what we think.I am not here to Narrate all my experiences.But All I want to Say is,It was a Wonderful Year,i end it with Contentment and i am Ready to Welcome a New One with Loads of Optimism And Challenges.
                                                                                                                       Lots of Gratitude,
                                                                                                                                Saima

Staring in Space.

Years back,It was a Usual College day,when like always a Sudden Unplanned Outing was decided by a group of us.As it was Monsoon days,the Climate was friendly,Clouds had gathered around the Sun,Shielding the Land from Scorching Heat and thus only a few Parallel rays came down to add a tinge of Gold to the Blue Weather.We fFiends decided to spend the rest of the time at Sea Face.It was Early Evening hour when we were found Dangling our Legs on the Rocks facing the hard hitting Waves to one another at Worli Sea face.The Pleasant Climate with a Wonderful Company was  a Perfect Monsoon Evening.We Laughed to being Insane and ate loads of stuff we could find around.Soon i got a call to which i excused myself at a little distance facing the sea side.I kept talking for a while until call got disconnected.Well,i have a faint Memory of the set of events but yes i remember waiting there for another ten Minutes.May be i was expecting to get back on line or whatever,but for a while i was Hypnotized to the Sound of the Waves.
My Eyes was Fixed far off in the Space and i was staring at nothing rather Staring in Space.The Fresh Breeze of Sea Side blew Across Carving a Smile on My Face.The Chaos of World was Behind my Back and the Fineness of Life in Front.Soon i Closed my Eyes,to feel the Breeze and listen to the Silence within me.My Heart was beating to the Sound of the Rushing waves.My Mind was Light and for an instant i felt to be Away From Mumbai.In no time,this Elated feeling was interrupted by a call,"kya kar rahi hai"and i just nodded my Head "kuch nai" and made a Move.Although it was a few Minutes of Meditation but it filled me with an Energy that i have no words to Define.That was the first time i got a Glimpse of the Power of Meditation.
Since then i love to Sit Quietly and Listen to the Silence.And that's the Reason of Me Being a a Close Admirer of Nature.It Gives an Opportunity to Take care of My Mind,to Clean it with Positivity when it is Dust Laden.

We are so Busy Hunting for the Bigger Pleasures of Life that we Overlook the Little Joys.Our Need for More makes us Forget all that we Owe.In the Rat race,We Leave behind our Real Self because we are Customizing and Fabricating ourselves to the wishes of others,carrying an Artificial Self around.

But,Meditation helps to Draw our Attention to the Undiscovered Paths of Happiness.
Meditation in any form is the Best Exercise for the well Being.It Helps Mind to Transcend,Expand Consciousness,Ignite Acceptance,Discover Strength and Strengthen Talents.The Positive Energy that is Hidden in Each of us gets a Way to Breathe Out.

Although,The Chaos that surrounds us leaves little time to enjoy being Self.But a few Minutes of Early Morning Meditation will surely Improve the Quality of Our Life.It has been a Great Help to Me,being my Catharsis through the thick and thin.

P.S:My Most Preferred Stress Reliever,Sit Besides the Sea Side and Stare out in Space and Meditate to the Sound of Gushing Waves.I Feel Each one Should try that.It Works!

The Little Coffins



The Blooming Flowers of Someones House and the only Candle of Happiness for many, were charred to Darkness by the Heartless Animals of Earth.The Merciless Attack by Taliban in the City of Peshawar,Pakistan has once again proved that their blood is infested by the Poisonous Insects of Inhumanity which is reflected in their Every Action.
                Taliban's have once Again Proved their Cowardliness by Attacking a Militant School killing Hundreds of Innocent Lives.The Souls of these children and Many others across the Globe will Haunt them Even after they Die.They will Drown in the Deepest Wave of Fire and Rot in Hell until their Every Part of Body Curses them for such Inhuman Crimes.

Their Act of Barbarism in the Name of Religion needs to be Collectively Spitted on.Their Stoned Heart Needs to be Stoned to Death.

Time Passes but the Wounds Remain Afresh.Whether it is 26/11 or 11/9.The Pain of Lost Dreams,Broken Hearts,Innocent Lives puts forward just one Question, "Akhir Kab tak "?The Terror Attack Wanders Around Each One of us,We Never know if we are the next victim.Today i am writing an article to condemn the Gruesome Act of the Terror face but i am unsure if tomorrow someone else will be Typing a RIP for Me.

Such incidences Evokes a Strong Feeling of Disgust and Anger ,We come together and Condemn,light Candles to Protest,Post Messages on Social networking Sites and then after a week,we are busy in Our Routines.May be We have Accepted to Live with these Beasts who are the Dirt of Our Planet.And this Acceptance of Ours has Given Birth to IS,ISIS and Many More who are budding from them.
Its Time to Clean the Dirt otherwise one day Humanity Will be Cleaned From Earth.Its Time when UN becomes more Transparent.We are not interested in knowing the Tweets of President's and PM's neither are we interested in watching their Statements.All We want is Result.Its High Time When US and other Super Powers Realize that they need to stop Playing the Politics of Being a Double-Edged Sword,else one End of The knife is soon going to slit their own throat forever.

BUT UNFORTUNATELY.....Those who have lost Someone Close will drown in the Sea of Sadness Forever and the Ones Who Haven't will Live Under the fear of Being the Next One.And Rest Of the Things Will Remain Same or Worsen...(and we all know what are those things :/.We Will Fight Amongst Each Other and they will Rage a War Against Us.

Somewhere in the Meanwhile,The Little Coffins of Today are calling for Justice.


P.S:My Heart Extends to all the Families of Blast or any kind of Terror Attack Victims Across the Globe!May their Soul Rest in Peace and their Loved Ones get the Patience and Strength to face their Difficult Time.Amen. Al Ajal Ya Imam a.t.f.s :(
