A HOLY PRAYAAS..

It was holi as usual once again..another year..another holi
Something was knocking deep inside…hey!! Wasup?? Wat r the holi plans…….i peeped inside….and the reply came back…nay man..nothing special this time around too…floundering on the roads..chasing some slicky gals..and then a visit to FUN CITY or YORKS like other holies.
t was a week ago when one mah frens ,Puneet came to me and proposed to do something special on this holi.

Finally a Visit to PRAYAAS ,a school for mentally challenged kids was organized . we took along with ourselves BDAY caps..though iot was holi but the caps helped to create the atmosphere to build up the spirit…peepnis—the small honk sound producing gadget ;), created the euphoria that we were almost the part of those special kids…{I remember last time I bought that peepni was when I was in 5th standard and my dad took me to the dussehra ground for watching the spectacle of burning of effigies of evils…so thanks.. hey u kids…..u gave my childhood back to me :) }

holi famous Gujjias were distributed among the kids and the staff of PRAYAAS along with 5 STARS chocolates and bananas…..it was more looking like a bday party rather than a HOLI celebration. Indeed it was a special occasion … Special for me and special for all of us…more than those kids of PRAYAAS..coz m not sure whether we made a difference in their lives,,but they have certainly made a difference to our lives…by making this holi one of the most memorable one.

We went there to make this holi special for them but I realized that perhaps they have something to offer to us…a gap filling in our busy lives by understanding these special and lovely kids..and a pause to realize that there are people around us who need us and who need our affection and love more than nothing else!

Celebrating holi with GOD’s own children was an experience of its own kind….wish u cud be there folks..!! :)

THANKS TO THE KIDS AND THE STAFF AT PRAYAAS FOR GRANTING THIS OPPORTUNITY TO US! LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE OCCASIONS LIKE THIS!

Bezuba ab hum hain…

Ekpal koste hain khud ko
Anjaane mein tujhe yeh kya keh diya

Doosre pal sochte hain
Ki Kabul kar “haan , chahte hain tumhe” apne dil ka raaz khol diya


Khayalo mey to bas tum hi thi,
Tumhare khyalo mein koi aur tha

Gilaa karte to kya karte
Kisiki wafaa par na kisi ka zor tha


Jo tha mere man mein use chhudayaa sabne milkar
Kabhi sochte hain kya gunah kiya unse bolkar

Kehne ko to aur bohat kuch tha
Par bezuba ab hum hain unse chand lafz bolkar..

कुछ खोने को है ...

आए थे यहाँ सब अनजान ,
आलम ये है की आज तुझमें मेरी और मुझमें बस्ती है तेरी जान .
आए थे यहाँ खाली हाथ आज कुछ होने को है
लगता है डर क्यूकि कुछ खोने को है


देखा करते थे कॉलेज में जिनको
अब यादों में हे याद करेंगे और भूलने न देंगे कभी उनको
मिलना चाहते हैं पर बहाने कम हैं
लगता है डर क्यूकि कुछ खोने को है



तुम्हारे बिना ये कॉलेज की बातें अधूरी सी
तुम्हारे बिना ये कॉलेज की यादें अधूरी सी
उनसब पलों में तुम हो पर वो पल सोने को हैं
लगता है डर क्यूकि कुछ खोने को है


और हर साँस है सहमी हुई सी धड़कन को एक डर
तुम्हारे जाने के बाद कैसे कटेगा ज़िंदगी का ये सफर
ये पल भी अब जाने को है
इसलिए लगता है डर क्यूकि कुछ खोने को है ….!
