It sounds funny!!!!

It was already dark and I was returning from Pune. Hell lot of tired of driving at a stretch, but fully awake. I was crossing Lonavala, there is a strange thing happens in a section, it’s about 500 meters stretch and you will face that the speed of the car starts dropping down, even though you press your accelerators, but nothing happens , the speed drops quickly, even though it’s not a climb, it’s a straight road. I haven’t got the clue of this. But never mind, this is not what I want to share.

There is a high accident prone area in the Ghats and you will notice, an accident happens every second day in that road. But surprisingly most of the accidents happen in a particular section of the road only. I noticed an accident on that stretch on Wednesday night while coming from PUNE and something weird happened with me on Thursday night in the same section.

While I was driving slowly in the line of other cars, I was drained out in myself with full day’s of meeting and work. But it’s not that, I was hallucinating because of that. I could clearly remember that, I was alone in my car and suddenly, I saw a man sitting in my back seat. I now also I can remember his face. He was a average looking guy, clean shaven, wearing white shirt, smiling at me. I saw him from my real window and smiled at him. I was surprised, thinking that when I didn’t stop my car anywhere, neither given anyone a lift, then how come someone can enter the car. I felt that something was wrong, and when I saw again, there was no one. Still I am not getting the whole situation or incident which happened to me.

But then it was not over, I was coming out of this, and then suddenly I saw the same man, running parallel to my car. I got a shock, that how come cars behind me are not blowing horns to him? He came here my front door window and again smiled at me, but this time, I was freezed. It was so much shocking that I forgot that I was driving the car. But fortunately, I recollected what I was doing and got a hold of it.

Although, I have a unique interest of reading and experimenting whole lot of paranormal stuffs, but to understand this and give a explanation of such incident is hard for me.

Can anyone explain this?

When I look back!!!

I was born in a middle class family, with lot of enthusiasm and eagerness to grow, living in Kolkata (Calcutta). I had everything which a child should get at that age. Relatives used to surround me every time and I used to get, whatever I wanted. I thought life would be like this only.

I started my first level schooling there in Kolkata and I can remember that, I used to travel to school every morning in a closed door rickshaw. The experience of travelling, I used to enjoy a lot. I made lot of friends, but didn’t knew that, I will be losing them soon.  Life went by smoothly till the day came, when I was brought to Mumbai (Bombay).

It was an entirely new world for me and leaving all the loved ones was very much difficult for me. I was made to realize that, I have to stay here all my life and grow between these people. But who are those people? I didn’t knew them. My mind would fly back every time, when I used to be alone. But as it says, “Time is the best healer”, things started shaping beautifully for me and I was enjoying the Mumbai excitement.

Coming from a family, where studies were always kept on the highest priority, I never pushed myself more into studies. I always loved to take things in a light manner. I never wanted to take the same typical career path for me, which everyone took. I faced really a hard time, in convincing this to my parents, but ultimately succeeded. From childhood, I had very composed and limited demands. I never demanded toys, but felt in my heart, that I should also get good toys to play, which everyone had.

I simply knew that, even I demanded, I would not get. So better don’t do that only. My school days were the best days of my life; I was having a big gang to roam around. Although, I was always an average student, but there was something, which people liked and appreciated. 12 yrs of schooling just passed away, and still I miss those precious moments in my life. I often see the old pictures, which takes me to those times, when we never thought, whether we will get a job or not? Realization to that level is not expected from teens.

Whole life changed from the last day of graduation. College was a fun place; love was around each and every day. I still remember, we used to bunk classes and spent the most of our time in canteen. We felt living life king size. We were very much famous in the college and everyone wanted to be in our gang. But it was like, taking membership of a premium club. We pampered our self to the fullest and cherished every bit of being famous.

Now it’s being almost 3 decades for me living in Mumbai and I feel the same passion which I used to feel in those college days. But the memories of my childhood days are still fresh in my mind. After having almost a perfect life, I still want to rewind the time and re-live those days, which are more or less perfect for me to enjoy.  So, when I look back now, I realize the quantum of journey I made and what transformation has happened as a person in me.

Life & Surprises

Surprises are the essence of life. I believe that without any surprises, lives will be tasteless and monotonous. But, the question is, how much are we ready for the surprises? Every human on this earth always runs behind the happiness in a life, but forgets that, nothing comes as free.

People are not ready to take the credit of the failures and start blaming on the environment, where he is interacting with.

I am also not an exception to those classes of people who often expects best surprises from their life, work and from every small or big thing they do in this life. These people are so used to win that they forget that things are not the same every time. I used to believe, that I am and will be always best in whatever effort I put in and this confidence ended up in over confidence and for every failure I faced in my life, I started blaming others who helped in my good times.

I forgot the basic survival theory of life that one who conquers the failures, reaches to the level of satisfaction. Being satisfied is not being always RIGHT, to say “SORRY!!! I was WRONG!!”. Satisfaction is in building a comfortable web around you, where people get attracted in spending time with you.

I lately understood that, you can expect many things from life and no doubt, life will fulfill your expectations, if you can fulfill life’s expectations from you. It’s a give and take relationship, where life can also blame you for your mistakes like we blame life for our mistakes.
