Nothing Remains Constant And The Page Will Turn...

This post has been published by me as a part of the Blog-a-Ton 46; the forty-sixth edition of the online marathon of Bloggers; where we decide and we write. To be part of the next edition, visit and start following Blog-a-Ton.
Many months inside her and finally the baby was born…
Her son was crying but she never felt so adorned.
Tears of happiness rolling down her eyes …
She looked at her beautiful son and thanked the skies.
She had no family and her husband was also gone…
He left her in agony but she survived all alone.
Till yesterday she felt that it's better to be dead…
And now she was ready to see the positives ahead.
She was happy and sure that everything would go well…
But her fate had totally different stories to tell.
This is Life, and she had many more lessons to learn…
Because nothing remains constant and the page will eventually turn.

Her education wasn't enough to get her any stunning vocation…
Meager wages and constant approach of men raised her bar of frustration.
 But she was a survivor and never stopped fighting…
Her baby boy was with her and that was abundantly inspiring.
She believed in facing her problem rather than just to run…
And remained hopeful that the page will eventually turn.

Couple of years passed and she continued to survive…
Each new day teaching her a different lesson of life.
She managed to find a better job and a place to stay…
And sent her son to a decent school to learn and play.
Time rolled on and prospects were looking better…
She became complacent and thought the worst was all over.
But life is harsh and she had few more lessons to learn…
Change remains constant and the page will eventually turn.

The College Life...

We sat in a corner recollecting memories of school...
Reminiscing the moments when we thought we were so cool.
We wondered if at all we would get friends like those...
Who mesmerized us with their smile and became so close.
This totally new world was cutting us all like a knife...
But we kept on jotting notes on the first day of our college life.
Finally when the feeling became unbearable and enormous...
We looked up to see them already gazing at us.
They were the strangers we never encountered earlier...
But in some corner of our hearts they looked familiar.
Their eyes were friendly and warm...
And face had an affectionate charm.
They smiled and we felt our insides lighter...
We smiled in return and our face turned a lot brighter.

A year passed by and we hardly spoke...
But the smile remained constant and a bonding evoke.
We couldn't muster enough strength to converse...
And then we went out for a trip which eliminated the fuss.
A simple hello was added to the ever pleasing smile...
This evolved into never ending talks and chats in a while.

Life Is To Live And Not Just To Survive...

There was a time when I was in pain...
Time when everything was filled with disdain.
When the hardship of life proved too much to carry...
And the scenery of my life looked eerie.
When everything was covered in thorn...
And beautiful flowers were long gone.
Times when I was exceedingly depressed...
And the tears became impossible to suppress.

I stared at the ghastly dark at nights...
Imagining how far is the bright light.
Light that would sincerely shine upon me...
Making this gruesome dark to flee.
I crossed my fingers and hoped for a miracle...
Which would make my world tolerable.
I waited and waited but was left with pain...
And that was the moment when you came.

The second chance...

"She had blue skin.
And so did he.
He kept it hid,
And so did she.
They searched for blue,
Their whole life through.
Then passed right by,
And never knew."


"If at all you would have said this earlier "(Tears rolling down her cheeks)

"I know, but I couldn't  muster enough strength Sneha"

"I loved you Gaurav...I waited for two long years"

"I know, M sorry...I had to leave...but I am back for you"

"Its too late...we cannot be together anymore"

"I love you Sneha...please don't say that!"

*Sneha's heart skipped a beat hearing those three words. Gaurav was all she ever wanted, she craved for love, craved for a beautiful life with him. You have to decide...now..she thought.*

"Please Gaurav...Can we be friends?"

"I cannot"

"But its not possible now"

*He was left with no other choice but to set her free, If only he could express his love in time. He realized it was too late...There was never a second chance...He came closer and looked deep into her moist eyes*

"I will never forget you"

He wiped her eyes gently, and cupped her cute face. There was a brief moment of silence, only in the agony of parting do we look into the depths of love...he whispered more to himself. Finally, he loosened his grip. He turned and started walking away. She wanted to scream and stop him but couldn't. She realized it was the best for both of them. Tears rolled down their faces as they parted each other... for the second and final time in their life.

Why a desperate need to sleep?

There is a fact "Sleep deprivation can kill you faster than food deprivation"

Time is 0030 hours and although i still have a lot of things to do, i cannot control the movement of my eyelids trying to cover my eyes, forcing me to get a good night sleep. so here I am washing my face, terminating my work for sometime and writing a random post to refresh myself *yawning*

We can resist almost any temptation but can never resist a temptation to sleep, when your head feels heavy and your brain automatically stop processing, you have to shut those eyes and say hello to your nightmares. Now has the thought ever cropped among you guys that Why our body is desperate to sleep after a days work? Is it just for the purpose of rejuvenation or saving energy? I think not! Because while we are sleeping, we spend only a meager 10 percent less energy than we are wide awake. 

So whats the main purpose behind your conscious brain shutting down to get some sleep? Well the answer to that is our brain contains a large network of thread like wiring called Neurons. These neurons passes all the signals between your body and brain through a mechanism of electrical and chemical feeds. Now all this requires a lot of energy, which is provided by the energy filled ATP tissues. And during all these transactions of signals and data processing by brain, a lot of Adenosine is produced as a by-product. When the level of this by-product increases, our brain is forced to terminate itself in order to clean up the mess. Without this cleaning up mechanism inside our brain we can even go to coma and eventually die. 

Transfer of neuro-signals through neurons
So for those, who are tired of their lives and are searching for an option to end it, i recommend being awake for long enough time to receive a peaceful salvation. Keep thinking about my idea, while i go grab some sleep. Good night. *Already Snoring*

The Wolf-pack !! \m/

Hi there to all the amazing people out there! Just finished my chunk of holidays and i am live again...

Sometimes the bar of frustration gets so high that we all try to find an escape from life. We run for peace, for silence, becomes self-obsessed and introvert. We conceal so much that we completely forget that its not very difficult to get relieved...that a life line is always present...

I face the same problems as all of you and have the same life line... My Friends...The Wolf-pack...who can say the most disgusting thing in the most humorous manner, recite the most hackneyed statement in the most astonishing manner and transform the most monotonous moments into the most exciting memories...

A star that is older than Universe!

Science and technology has proliferated a lot in past years. Through careful observations and calculations, we can not only get details of anything that is present on our planet but way beyond that. Astrophysicists, with their amazing telescopes and heavenly space stations have calculated the age of almost all the stars present in the universe which is so freaking cool! But these calculations can sometimes go bizarre.

HD 140283 nicknamed Methuselah star, was first discovered in the year 2000 and after studying various factors like luminosity, composition, velocity and position was estimated to be 16 Billion years old. Wait WHAT?!! I remember reading somewhere that the estimated age of Universe is 13.7 Billion years. Is that even possible? Or is it that all the facts that we studied about big bang theory, age of universe and every experiment related to it was just one big error?

But hey don't worry, age of Universe is supposedly right. It has been said that the age of Methuselah star is conflicting because of collision of our galaxy with an adjacent galaxy some 12 Billion years ago which made this controversial star to bounce into our system. This star is very rare and has a completely different composition and velocity than the stars of our galaxy which caused the errors in the readings and calculations of its age. With careful observations recently its age has been brought down to 14 Billion years, which brings it closer to the age of universe itself. Researches are still going on and scientists are hopeful to provide solid answers within few years.

Methuselah star may not be older than the universe itself but being 'the oldest star' is still a very cool superlative.
