Escape

You remember the the school lunch breaks? the times, when you would finish your tiffin ASAP so that you could find more time to play. I miss those days. But the thing I miss even more is the feeling I used to get 10 minutes before the break. The feeling you get, when you know something good is about to happen. The feeling you get, when you are about to Escape.

Escape? how do we define such a complex concept? It need not to be a big hotshot trip, it could be very simple. Like, a hot cup of tea when you are drenched in the rain is an Escape. Calling home after a heavy day is an Escape. Listening to soothing classical music in a noisy city is an Escape. Reading a book to explore an unknown world is an Escape. Getting the Idea?


So what's the occasion for me to write on this subject? Simple, I'm having my Escape from my routine, where words help me express my thoughts, where I communicate to strangers(one sided though, LoL), and try to find tiny bit of happiness(I feel that once the post is complete).  Writing is my Escape, and I know it.

And that's the thing I would like to share with everyone who will come across this post. Life is like school. You gotta perform well, achieve great heights and doing many more things, but along the way don't forget to have the little Escapes. Know the Escapes which suits you, and soothes you too. Cause these Escapes make you unique, they recharge you and more than that, they make you happy. 

So Happy Escaping!

The Book Thief

There are stories. There are good stories. And then there are stories which touch your soul. One such story is written by Markus Zusak, named as The Book thief. Narrated by the death itself, it's a story of a kid from Nazi Germany. Her name is Liesel. Living in a foster home, with her new Papa and Mama. But life is not fair with her. She has memories of a brother, she lost on a train. Her new mother is awful cook and pretty tough on her. She has nightmares every night. As she starts to live this new life on a place called Himmel Street, stuff keeps happening. She makes a best friend Rudy, who's has crush on her. Her father teaches her the art of reading from a book she has stolen from grave yard. And hence the title, the book thief. And then there's another important character, called Max. Who is a Jew in a Nazi Germany, who is given shelter in her basement. You go on a journey from a train, to a football match on street, to stealing apples and bread. From playing accordion...

The Good, The Bad and The Corporate

I have often heard that, people don’t come in Black and White; they are always in the shades of grey. Confused? Let me explain. Like the old good Hindi movies, there is no absolute goodwill hero or absolute evil villain. Everyone belong in between, the scale which connects the absolute good and pure evil. But that’s something you already know, don’t you? Of course you do, because at times we behave good and bit evil as well. And this evil doesn’t mean being a bad person, it just means “Not waiting for the signal to turn green”, or “Throwing the garbage on the road” (Cause there was no dustbin around, so lame reason, Lol). My point being, everybody is bad sometime and vice a versa. So that covers the good and the bad, but what’s the corporate ha? Now these are the strangest but the smartest people on the earth (at least they think so,Lol). So being in corporate life for almost two years, I observed many people. People of my age, little bit seniors and highly seniors as well. And ...

Someone

They say memories are like curse. They make you feel the pain, again and again. And that's partially true. A sweet moment happened in past, makes you smile, but the realization that it won't happen again makes you sad as well. Its like that cup of tea which is half filled. So I have this memory. Not memory exactly, rather a feeling. A feeling, which makes me happy. This feeling appears on my doorstep, when it is about to rain. So when the sky is darkly clouded, the heat is cooling down, and no one is missing the sun. I miss that 'Beep' sound on my phone. Cause it used to beep continuously at such times. I miss that crazy screaming on call, when first few drops from sky took a dive. How can I forget the never ending wish to eat ice cream during rain.   The timeless calls at window, the nigh chats, and the promises. The Promise to be forever, the promise to have faith, the promise to never betray, the promise no never go away. Those rains were witnesses. That at...
