100$

A good branded watch (a long time dream)…an amount equivalent to a part of a monthly savings back in INDIA…repaying someone’s kindness….which one of these should I choose is what was going thru my mind that day when I left my first accommodation in US to go ahead with one near to my office…and I chose the last option. Cause for me, a friendly face, a welcome note and a homely attitude meant a lot more than 100$. I was the one who backed out and told that I won’t be able to stay there as my office was far and he was the one who supported me in my decision. So did it really matter to me that I made him accept 100$ for staying there just for 4 days when the actual amount was even less than 50$, NO. He was completely denying taking anything but I dint want to be known as someone who came, lived and just walked away breaking his word. I don’t live by what other’s think…but I don’t even like someone pointing a finger at me. And at that point of time I believed my word valued much more than a 100$ note. At least for those 4 days I lived as if I was in my own house…and that is what made the difference…and am happy about it.

thats wen u realise...

पहली बार इस बात का एहसास हुआ....के अकेलापन क्या होता है... When u land at Chicago O'Hare airport...and u r stranded for 1.5 hours....u have money but u dont know how to call a cab...and u know the cab u can call is too costly...thts wen u realise that u are alone....Wen u arrive at a stranger's place for accomodation...u talk to him just because u have to talk 2 cause people dont talk 2 strangers out here, thats wen u realise what it means to listen to someone who wanted to talk...when u have to cook and even though the mashed potato has a bit less salt and u still relish it, thats wen u realise the value of that "kal ka khaana" that u complained about back home...wen u have to prepare the breakfast,eat it, wear ur shoes and run to take the cab, thats wen u realise wot all ur mother did 2 make ur "good mornings" really good....wen u have to be careful for each and every step u take, thats wen u realise wot all ur father did to make u feel secure...wen u have to do everything urselves, thats wen u realise wot all ur brother did for u because u r stilla "kid brother" to him...wen u miss someone but u still cant talk 2 the person because there is no facility, u realise how important it is to kip in touch with our near and dear ones....wen its so cold that even ur tears are afraid of coming out,thats wen u realise the warmth of someone's hug...wen u shake a lot of hands but miss that loving touch,thats wen u realise the importance of a caring hand....
Life is strange...not all lessons are taught in school books...some are learnt as we grow up. We forget the value of many things as we grow up...there are many things that i have mentioned here...many things that are priceless...invaluable...i understood the value of most of them...and have understood the value of many in just 3 days in US...i dont know whom to thank for the lesson...but ITS HIGH TIME WE REALISED...

I was a fan of this song for quite sometime....its been long that i heard this song, but the lyrics still bring out a smile on my face। So here it goes,

हम जो चले तुम भी चलो साथ
फिर क्या ख़बर की दिन हे की रात

हम जो चले तुम भी चलो साथ
फिर क्या ख़बर की दिन हे की रात

बस में y S रहेंगे जज़्बात
तुम जो सनम हमारे चलो साथ
हम जो चले...

सुर से सजी गीतों सी तेरी याद
तुझ बिन सनम भये न कोई बात
कैसे कहो अकेले चलूँ आज
तुम आओ सनम सुने हैं दिल के साज़

कैसी भी राहें हो कैसी डगर हो
कोई भी रास्ता हो कोई सफर हो
चलते रहें हम जो दूर हमसफ़र हो
हम जो चले...

दिन यह कहे भीतो हमारे पास
आओ इधर इशारा करे रात
हम को मगर चाहिए वही शाम
जिस पे सनम लिखा हो तेरा नाम

चांदनी रातें या घिरती सहर हो
चाहे दिन का वोह कोई पहर हो
चलते रहें हम जो दूर हमसफ़र हो

हम जो चले तुम भी चलो साथ
फिर क्या ख़बर की दिन हे की रात

बस
में नहीं रहेंगे जज़्बात
तुम जो सनम हमारे चलो साथ

गलियों मई फिरता है बंजारा दिल ये
तुझ को ही दूंगेगा आवारा दिल ये
करता है जाने इशारे क्या दिल ये

गलियों मई फिरता है बंजारा दिल ये
तुझ को ही दूंगेगा आवारा दिल ये
करता है जाने इशारे क्या दिल ये

गलियों मई फिरता है बंजारा दिल ये
तुझ को ही दूंगेगा आवारा दिल ये
करता है जाने इशारा क्या दिल ये

गलियों मई फिरता है बंजारा दिल ये
तुझ को ही दूंगेगा आवारा दिल ये
करता है जाने इशारा क्या दिल ये

हम जो चले तोह तुम भी चलो साथ
...
