I was on a seashore waiting for waves to hit me right on my face so that I could bring myself back to life and to reality. Meanwhile I lost my sanity. I stood there, staring at the huge, large ocean gazing at me and unspokenly conveying my insignificance in life. I wondered, what would I do if it got me out of my land and made me strive! The fear of ocean was making unwanted noises in my head! Oh! poor me! What if this and what if that?! I started looking at the ocean with anguish and dredd! The waves then came to hit me and made me wet! The violence was similar to a flower bed! I realised, half of the pain that was there in my head would be dealt with a minor intellect! Like the ocean, life seems to be an unending entity that causes fear in my heart! The fear of losing, the fear of falling apart! I closed my eyes and took a deep breath! I felt the positivity behind the harsh fate and envisaged it as a beautiful wreath! ~Ayushi

Kuch waqt se dil iss khayal mein mubtala hai ki vo bachpan ki numaish se dil bharta nahi tha par ab inn shehron ki har din ki numaishon ne dilon ko bezaar kar dia hai.  Mera ek sawaal hamesha se raha tha unse jo tasveron se ya apne zubaan se apne aas paas ke logon ko ehsaas-e-kamtari ka shikaar bana dete hain ki kya tumhe iss baat se khauf nahi ata ki Jo bhi iss duniya mein ata Kiya Gaya hai vo vapis bhi liya ja sakta hai..ya fir agar vo sab ata kia gaya hai toh uska maksad mazloomon ki madad karna bhi ho sakta hai naaki zamaane mein numaish lagane ke liye. Shayad isiliye guroor ko sabse bada aib mana gaya hai...kyunki guroor hi insaan ko sahi-galat aur jayaz-nazayaz sochne ke kaabil nahi chorta. Insaan zarre ke jitni zindagi ko bhi inhi bebuniyaad baaton se aur dikhave ki dewaaro se dhak kar uski khoobsoorti ko kho deta hai.. Insaan toh fir insaan hi hai na!!
