Here I am..

Well! After months of travelling and going back and forth between Chennai, Bhilai, Pune and Bhopal I finally settle down...here..in a village called Tilonia at Rajasthan. Away from the buzz of the city, rush of the traffic, and the glare of materialistic life, when the pitch dark nights in the lone village reveal all the stars etched in its sky, hiding none unlike the city custom, I don't regret a bit to have made my choice of living here..away from my comfort zone...
I guess Its time to fill 'TheTilonia diary' with stories of its people!

Rajasthan!

Thorny shrubs and bushes, cactus and dry vegetation, women clad in colorful ghagras, men with their big pagdis of dignity and tiny me, looking out for a great experience in a small village of Rajasthan! A royal land of colors, culture, and tradition :)

Coming soon..
The Tilonia Diary....Stories of simplicity, struggle, achievements, intellectualism, and togetherness..

Utter Crap!

Whistles, kites, paper boats, butterflies,
Yes I am crazy
Sandwiches, apples, biscuits, candies,
Yes I am a foodie
I like seeing buffaloes flying in the sky
I like singing out loud in an empty room
I like writing that doesn’t make any sense
Tra la la la la la la
I am happy
And happiness doesn’t need any sequence, any definition
It just flows
Freshens the air around you
Fills up the emptiness
Music, writing, food, craziness
The cells that I am made up of
Let it grow more n multiply
I don’t care what you think abt me
Cuz this is me
RANDOMNESS!!!!!!!!!! :D :D

Is it the research project thats doing all this????????

Never did it happen but today, when i stood outside my locked door, I wished why cant I have someone who waits for me and opens the door ! Never did it happen but today, when I sat on my couch, I wished why cant I have someone who talks to me over the cup of coffee. Never did it happen but today, when I made my dinner, I wished why cant I have someone to share it with. Never did it happen but today when I wished I had someone to say good night to before going to bed! Never did it happen but i missed you today!!
Sounds weird but yeah!!

The broken piece!!

I saw! I saw! A broken piece of horror!
Loitering around and sometimes hiding in the corner..
In no time he became quite popular with the crowd.
As people got a new free show to watch and discuss out loud.
A constant search though always surrounded his thoughts.
Bringing all the piece together to stand again, he fought and fought.

The Bride..

Indian Woman, often portrayed as complete, responsible, caring who builds up a family. But has anybody pondered upon the phase of her life which transforms her from a care free girl to a responsible women?
The Bride....
At one level, she feels eternally happy and wants to embrace the new journey which is going to begin, but at another level she remains ambiguous and anxious about getting tied to this knot of relationship. Various question, fear, apprehensions continue to surround her thoughts. How is she going to survive in a new surrounding? Will she be able to adjust in the new set up? Will she be able to live up to the family's expectations? Or what are the chances that it will work out in the way she has imagined?
Amidst  all this, she still manages to convince herself to take up the most daring step of her life. She dares to leave her family, her loved ones to accept someone completely new.She dreams to build a new house of her own out of love. She breaks open all her fear and strives to achieve what looks completely bizarre in the beginning. 
Yet she takes up this big step! 
I salute you.. You are indeed the Indian woman who deserves the best!

Belief.....


I am your belief. 
Bounded yet pure.
Complicated yet clean.
I strive to breathe into this new world.
With years, months, and days rolling by,
I try to untangle the narrow knots.
Seeking to figure out a new course.
Away from the conventions of ancient ages.

But thoughts hold me back.
Fear blurs my vision ahead
I don’t know why,
The mind likes to keep me subjugated.
Shackled and tied on this side of the boundary.
Burdened under the shallow layers of rituals.

I still hope
To unlock the hidden values of tradition.
To erase the edges of worthless rules.
To beckon to the call of time.

I feed on the colors of life.
Don’t block the sunshine entering my soul.
Let me sprout under the spell of rain.
Grow richer under the shelter of this modern sky.
I need your trust to carry this change.
Give me freedom to assess.
Give me your will to accept.
I shall paint a new world of new ideas.
Colors is all I need.
And colors is all I have,
To transform you into a better being.
                             The colors of change!
