Let ur life be a river,
Confluenced by diverse thoughts..
Where pebbles and stones, small and big
Jostling for space to be part of u..
While u march ahead conquering different terrains,
Ur roots are glued to the originating name...
Making new friends along the way,
But keeping old by ur side..
One day u have to merge with the ocean,
But maintaining the distinct identity of urself along the way..

I had written this while going for my exam in a train.. Hope u understand the essence of my emotions at that moment!!.. 
I have written it on the spot
(not literally!.. as the train was moving!.. lol!!.. 
) and left it unedited as i feel tampering with it would change its intrinsic characteristics. so please bear with me if there is any dulplication of thoughts.
7:00 PM
Started my journey from the pune station.
Travelling in a train full of humanity, I was soon beseiged by the unending cries of laughter and shouting, swearing and screeching Voices flowing in all possible direction. Admist all this hullabaloo i still felt like a lonely boy searching for answers for the unknown questions from the surrounding. Like a rush of adrenaline to learn something new, his quest to find some exciting thing.
The Mountains and the trees, grass and shrubs diminishing by the seconds and felling into obscurity and haze due to the shearing pace of train. Everything that was clear some moments ago- in stillness- becomes vague in ruffled commotion. Same with the human mind i guess. When the mind is clear of any pre-conceived notion about a thing or a personality then the all things look hunky dory and good. But as soon as we clog our mind by uneasiness and hatred those same things become bad and unenduring.
Meanwhile, I m sitting at the window-alone-looking out thinking. A rush of different time frames, different thoughts, eclectic personalities soon engulfs my mind. Thinking about the past and the present, the laughter i shared, the pain i endured, retrospecting all the past grumbles and quarrels. lively chats, friendly masti, confused and undecisive action. The issues which were so big at that time suddenly seemed so silly and trivial. Trying to learn from it. Not to make that same mistakes again. Not to grumble about the trivial and not-so-important matters. To Become less complaining and more soft at heart.
A flurry of amazing thought occurs to me at that moment of aloofness which is very interesting still mystical. Why is that when we are alone or surrounded by unknown persons, we remember the persons whom we admire n like the most??.. Like the friends with whom we shared that small talk and laughter. Those tiniest of moments bring a sparkle in our eyes and laughter on our lips. Well most of us feel like that if i m not wrong. wat ur mind says??..These lonliest of moments when we r with ourselves and no one else, those close to our heart brings a cheerful feeling to our soul, are with us with their memories and those silliest and cutest face that come in front of our eyes which only our eyes can metamorphise it. They r Like Shadows, refusing to leave us and r connected always.
Moments like these make me realize how important it is to appreciate the people who gives us all the love & warmth of thier heart without expecting anything in return.That's the time i start loving them more than i ever did before. Its really strange in a sense that our deepest feelings which are hidden somewhere deep down is awekened when we r alone, When we see things from a different perspective, just by cutting all the other mundane worldly task we do for our survival.
7:30 PM
Got a message from someone, who is very dear friend of mind and whose simplicity i admire the most, Wishing me luck for my exam. A sudden chain of thoughts erupts in my mind about that person, the things we discussed, the laugh we shared, the crap we talked, the small beautiful moments of friendship, each other's company, dissecting our lives in front of each other. Its all connected!!... Mind suddenly links all the experiences related to a person or thing when we think about that person and present our whole connected life in front of our eyes to relive this moments again. so Exhilarating!!..
It is all because i take some part of them while interacting with them from their interesting and electic and diverse personalities which helps me become a better person than i m right now!!..
Heading away to my destination not knowing my fate 2morrow,
But i m confident and unafraid of the path ahead.. 
Signing off!!...
7:40 PM
Pune- Mumbai Express!!..

I had written this speech for the alumni meet in our college which was on 31st Jan '09. But due to the circumstances, (u know how rowdy these get-2gether are!!... :)) , coudnt deliver it!!... Dil ke armaan dil main hi rah gaye!.. ;)
Still thought of putting the transcripts of the speech, so that those who know the situational humour in this could Enjoy it!!.. :)
I]
Firstly, I thank the organizers for putting together such a wonderful event & inviting me for the occasion (that’s the main part! ). Thank you for your warmth and affection and I say this on behalf of everyone present here.
Let’s start.
Well it’s a written speech. What? Everybody now-a-days reads a written speech, from Presidents to Actors. So it’s ok with u I assume! But there is a difference also. I m my own speech-writer, anyways who could afford them now, their charges are ridiculously high!
II]
Anyways...Jokes apart
Starting off… First a disclaimer!
A Disclaimer! You may think that hmm… another shahrukh khan movie types emotional stuff!
Don’t be afraid, it won’t be a run-off-the-mill Hindi picture full of rona dhona and emotional atyachar but is short and fast like screenplay of “A Wednesday”. I assure u that!
That doesn’t mean u can bomb me at the end!
Huh...Where I was..Haan the disclaimer…ok
“The events and characters described here are all real and any resemblances to the living or dead,umm I will change it to suit the occasion,Present or absent is purely intentional. Each and every word spoken is mine, to the best of my knowledge atleast, and not plagiarized. Do not get offended by any off color joke. I know u all r very Sporty!”
III]
Ok...Now the real part!!...
Here I am,
After a year & half’s sabbatical,
Standing before u all,
At the very place where we were recruited to leave…
(Well, yes it was the same hall, Where I still vividly remember, We sitting at the back side(our usual place!) Where one by one everybody was going to the podium—Goosebumps in my stomach waiting for my fate. That time it didn’t occurred that we were going to leave this college once and for all, entering into a different world called corporate world.)
At the same podium where I gave my farewell speech…
(Not many of u remembers that I know, n please don’t remember it.)
Overlooking the same people, who has the courage to hear me twice.
(well…at least some of u!)
IV]
In these very surroundings,
I entered (quite reluctantly & after so many hassles)
I learned (well I can pretend to do so!)
I excelled (a little…NO? ok I will strike it off!)
I unlearned (Many things had to be erased from my mind!)
I enjoyed (A hell-of-a-lot actually. Esp. bunking out when the classes were ON was the most memorable and thrilling part. – Never mind that we got an earful after we returned.)
My four years of roller-coaster ride called “The gr8 Engg. Ride”
V]
Those were the days,
When I was first a little hesitated and quiet… (Literally an introvert if I may say so...esp. to girls!)
Had unclear notions and goals.
Little less mature.
Entering into a new world and a new city with unknown mysteries and challenges!
VI]
Now After these many years of my courtship with college
(With the usual differences of course..Else all would be dull and uninteresting. )
I learned to look things differently
I matured a little
Learned what to do n what not to do (This is important...what not to do!)
Made lifetime friends! (I think so! don’t believe me?? Raise ur hand guys! Hooting will also do!!)
Met amazing teachers(Right from first year to the fourth)
Honed my logical and managerial skills… (PINNACLE ’06…remember.kyun secretary?)
Learnt to be a prankster (That’s classified) & PJ-ite (In the comp. of Gaurav and tanmay)
Became a chatter-box (Well u can see...No need to explain that!)
Played dumb-charades on result days! (Our idea of stress-buster)
And what NOT!
VII]
Everything you see in me today, is due to my four years of extended holiday in this scenic and beautiful college ( Natural beauty as well as intellectual beauty!) and over and above due to the love and affection, support and guidance of my teachers and Friends, Scholars and pranksters!..N everybody I come to think of and know of!
There’s a bit of everybody in me apart from my own individual self confluence into a one single river of thoughts!
Thank You all for such wonderful memories
I wish, from the bottom of my heart, that I could be in college again…
I could be in college again!!....

Life is busy as hell…
Moments occupied with trivial matters…
Not finding enuf time to pursue ur dreams..
Is it not the time to pause(for Yourself!)?
Home away from home…
Pre-occupied with the sundry mundane things..
Not finding enuf time to be in touch with ur dear ones..
Is it not the time to pause(for ur family!)?
Silent for days together…
Not even a trace of the melodious voice…
Not finding enuf time for the people who care n adore u..
Is it not the time to pause(for ur friends!)?
Speedin away irrespective of not wanted(red signal!.)..
Not heeding the common rule of conduct..
Not finding enuf time to reflect upon one’s conscience..
Is it not the time to pause(for ur society)?
Blood soaked day n night…
Bunch of madmen taking nation hostage..
Not finding enuf soul to mourn the losses..
Is it not the time to STAND-UP(for the nation)?
