Ja Divya ja... Jee Le Apni Zindagi!

Ja Divya, Jee Le Apni Zindagi — Aur Maine Sach Mein Jeena Shuru Kar Diya

Kabhi socha tha,
ek din aisa bhi aayega…

jab lagega —
mera ek sapna toh jaise poora sa ho gaya…

Life mein jis cheez ko dil se chaha,
wo bas milti chali gayi —
kabhi jaldi, kabhi der se…
But mili zaroor.
Shayad isi liye kehte hain —
sabka waqt aata hai… bas sahi waqt pe.

Mere dreams kabhi bade nahi the,
na tab, na ab…
choti choti khushiyon mein hi
main apni happiness dhoond leti hoon.

Aur aaj jab sochti hoon,
toh lagta hai —
Itna sab kaise mil gaya?

Phir dil kehta hai —
yeh sab unki blessings se hi ho raha hai.

Bade logon ka ashirvaad…
parents and in-laws —
meri mummy aur maa jaisi meri saas ka pyaar,
aur papaon ka saath…
unki blessings hi toh hain
jo har raasta aasan bana deti hain.

Aapke apne log —
chahe wo rishtedaar ho, friends ya sisters…
unka saath hi zindagi ko
Sabse strong pillar aur asli strength deta hai.

Unke lectures,
unka bina condition wala support,
unka har waqt saath rehna —
yeh sab milkar zindagi ko
aur bhi khoobsurat bana deta hai.

Aur upar se
God’s blessings —
jo har pal mehsoos hoti hain.

Aajkal mera favourite song bhi
meri life jaisa hi lagta hai —

“Mera aapki kripa se, sab kaam ho raha hai…”

Aur sach mein,
Sab kuch waise hi ho raha hai.

Apna ghar…
pehle bhi tha,
but this time…
It feels different.

Har eenth apni pasand ki,
har kone mein apni kahani —
aur is baar…
mental peace at its peak hai.

Bas…
jo mann kare wo karo,
Jaisa jeena hai waisa jiyo.

Kabhi kabhi lagta hai
jaise koi keh raha ho —

“Ja Divya, ja… jee le apni zindagi.”

Aur main bas dil se feel karti hoon —
haan… ab sach mein jee rahi hoon.

Perfect life shayad hoti nahi,
but aaj…
I am genuinely happy.

Aur phir…
mera chhota sa world —
hum teen — main, mere husband aur meri beti…

aur un dono ka bond itna pyaara hai
ki kabhi kabhi thodi si jealousy bhi ho jaati hai —
par shayad wahi toh asli pyaar hai.

Hum teenon ki ab
ek alag hi duniya ban rahi hai —
Jahan zyada waqt hai,
quality time hai,
better understanding hai,
aur sabse important —
ek doosre ka strong support hai.

Seekh jaayenge…
Shayad kuch galtiyan bhi karenge,
kyunki kabhi alag rehna seekha nahi…
par yeh bhi toh zindagi hi hai —
jo dheere dheere sab sikha deti hai.

Aur end mein…
bas itni si dua —

God bless everyone.
Khushiyan mile sabko —
chahe kam ho ya zyada…

par har kisi ke paas
Contentment zaroor ho.

Kyuki jab yeh aa jaata hai,
tab dil kehta hai —

“Haan… ab sab theek hai.”

Bas… thoda ruk kar jeena seekhiye. ✨

Live my Dreams!

I wish I can...
I wish I can also....
Live my dreams!

Why only born of a son is celebrated and most demanding?
Why only girls are trained in the kitchen and household work?
Why only boys are allowed to go out for trips?
Why only girls are expected to be wise and sacrificing?
Why only boys are considered to the ghar ka chirag and take over the business?
Why only girls are asked to leave their parents and family after marriage?
Why only boys are allowed to come late after work and live their dreams?

and this WHY... will go ON and ON....

I want to live my dreams but...
I want to take additional responsibilities but..
I want to grow in my career but...
I want to live with my family too but...
I want to be free with formalities and do what I want to do from my own wish but...
I want Equality but...

Who will look after all these rituals, culture, society, work life balance, household work, kitchen, inlaws, old traditions, family, kids, men chauvinism etc. ?

I wish I can change it and now expect our new generation to do the needful!

After 10 years, when I will read this blog - I should be proud of!

Note: "I have full support from my husband but current society and thought process in general is a big problem for most of the women specially the ones who are living with their inlaws."

Let me know if you can relate this story to some extent.

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Naa......

Just wondering… we are social being. We do not live for ourselves alone. We want somebody to share our pleasure and sorrow of life. They are called FRIENDS. A friend is a channel of love and affection. It grows after understanding and considerable interactions and sharing of feelings, where both understand each other, share each other’s agony freely and then an attachment grows.

Love is also based on the same criteria of friendship where they do the commitments to each other. Love does not rise to surface suddenly from anywhere.

I believe that true love does not lie on beauty alone. It is something more. Love grows after knowing each other, sharing feelings, caring and mutual understanding. The prominent elements in love are confidence and trust between the two.

The reason behind all this philosophy is that “”M IN LOVE “” lolz ...

Yeah!! "To be in love is the best way to see the life at its BEST.....""

My most memorable and the happiest day has come in my life which is like a dream come true for me...

It’s unbelievable for me ‘too’ that I am engaged with the one with whom I had fallen in love for the first time in my life and who is bestum se bhi jyda my “ BEST FRIEND”…

Well!! This “too”- represents majority of my friends who knows me very well … All were shocked that Divu has fallen in love and she is going for a love marriage?? In my college time- nobody ever imagined I will be involved in luv shuv!!! Those were the days when I was totally against love marriages and never believed in such type of relationships…

I never had such a feeling for anyone which I have for him… “My heart beats in his heart and his in mines” hahahahaha… Isn’t it filmy?? Every tiny miny thing had started bothering me and my heart!!

I have loads of friends in my life but he has taken that special place which every gal must have set for in their life … I took lot of time to make myself realize that I have fallen in love. Maybe our common friends would have recognized that some daal is gulling btw us but I was like very rigid and stiff to my thought and decision that neither can I fall in love with anyone nor will I let myself do so…

To start with our love story- I joined HCL in Feb’07 and there I met with Varun... On the very first day only there was some attractiveness from both the sides but obviously not realized anything being unknown to each other. As a fresher, I was in my ego and so is he… so we hardly spoke with each other, saying just hi n hellos or finding the reason to talk else we’ll not … (so funny!!)

Since there was only 1 gal in hcl- gurneet so I used to share a lot with her. Fortunately Gurneet’s best pal was Varun and Arun and so we 4 became very gud friends. We had gr8 FUN – watched movie in our office hours (goli dekar boss ko :P), had Maggie @ mother dairy in Sector-19.. , freak out in gurgaon or masti @ our favorite Spice food court. But since arun and gurneet had a gud tuning with each other so varun left for me.. Slowly and gradually, I and varun became very gud and best friends and after gurneet and arun left hcl, then he was my ekmaatra sahara !!

We did lot of calls together (to be more precise – calls mean visiting customers) and he was the one who helped me out how to manage myself in sales profile. Being new to this city, he was like a guide for me :P who was always there whenever I required any help professionally or personally. In today’s date, wherever I am working, he plays a very important role behind it. As I struggled for my job a lot but he was the one who always motivated me and gave the best possible solution.

And so we became more than a friend. Mango people had started talking about us thinkin that something is wrong but I was very firm on my decision that he is just a very gud friend and nothing else. “Let people say whatever they want, I just damn care”. Since we both had a very good understanding so we never let people say anything in front of us. Our common friends knew that he liked me but due to my rigid behaviour, he never confess anything and always tried to control his feelings…

But his extreme love and care made me fall in love with him finallyyyyy…..

On 29th April’09, I got a mail from Varun in the morning which was a formal love letter… at that time I didn’t take it on a serious note and was surprised that y he confessed?? But late nite .. when we were chatting via msg- msg, our feelings came out suddenly and we both confessed. Oh God!! In the morning I realized and from then our love story BEGINSss…….

Finally this beginning ends with a good start and we both got engaged on 20th September’10 which is the most happiest and memorable day of my life…

I am really thankful to my Jee , Jeju ,her in laws and my GOD for all the help they gave to make this happened ..

D CUBE !!!!

You all must b thinkin whatz D CUBE?? Well chek this out:- “Dancing is the loftiest, the most moving, the most beautiful of the arts, because it is not mere translation or abstraction from life; it is life itself.” Yes DANCE is my passion, zeal, joy, sorrow; I would say it is anything and everything for me…. Dance = Life= Deevoo…. I love watching dance shows, always want to reach state level !! But unfortunately I cudn’t ... Sounds funnyyy!! But true….. :P I love to spend my time dancing on any song in front of the mirror or cooler !! – be it any SAD song: D I remember the days of my MBA semester exams when I and Gari used to study together… (study kam- khate aur masti jyda karte ….) And I cherished myself by doing funny dance in front of gari after having that pg wala lunch … Since childhood, my mom made me learn dance from some or the other dance master or institute.. (BIG thanks to her)- I, Jee, Suchi and Sakshi- We first learnt the basic steps of dance… As I am really fond of dance so I continued learning some or the other forms of dance till my 11th standard… and there I got a chance to learn and perform Kathak in lucknow @ Doordarshan channel but at that time going out from Agra was a BIG BIG challenge for us ... so just dropped the idea !!… Finally Jee and I learnt SALSA and HIP HOP in Noida (YO!!!) when we both were in our job- - it was damn gooood…. Entirely different feeling WAOHH!!!... But that happened for just 3-4 months !!! I was always jealous from the ones who do better dancing than me and which I can’t do. …. Although I knew that they are actually good dancers.. but DIL to BACHhaa hai G :P When I was chhhotii… I never accepted the fact that anybody can dance better than me … .. At that time- I always thot- I AM THE BEST !! which is actually good,,, one should always think like that :D Well I am glad that I got a chance to give some dance performances on stage ………. in my school times, graduation or MBA time. Really Miss those dayzz….. . . . Slowly and progressively, I realized the truth… FINALYY…. Now I just love to STARE the good dancers and try their steps ;) (I wud rather say COPY) … “Better late than never” and enjoy my dance …. I believe – one should always dance wenave get time- it will really help to release your tensions….. And will make you feel happy forever ……… JUST TRY !!! So any guesses?? Whtz D CUBE !!!!

Missin Jee.....eeee..........

We used to fight a lot! And I was totally dependent on whatever she said, bought, decide….or anything for that matter. For me…she was the BOSSs……s…s... . . . YES I am talking abt my Jeee…. Urrff Jeee…..eee… Dulari (Papa’s laadli). I do miss her a lot… Never ever thot of … but yes I do ……. I MiSs our ladai… for each and everything which we did…. Be it related to bathroom, kapde, cleanliness, cumin late in my pg and freaking out with ma frndzz…. I Miss Alll her chik chik for small-2 reason…. “Sach kahu to smtms I feel very lonely …. Altho all pg gals r very caring and cooperative but nobdy can fill up her space”” Jase aadat si ho gae the muje uske sath rehne ki…… I had hardly spent time with her but still I knew that she was alwaz there with me. I don’t have words to write … (Hey jee - u knw very well!!!) From last year specially, meri jee ne mujse ladna kam kar dia tha and she had started treating me like a small kid and took loads of care …. (alwaz gave an apple and pomegranate properly packed when I was in a hurry), she knew that I wud b tired cumin from either my field job or from gurgaon- so she kept the room neat and clean…. I don’t have to even clean my bed bcz she had the habit to clean both the beds….. JJ Never ever I felt that I don’t have clothes which I wanted… bcz she was shopaholic and alwaz bought clothes for evry1 even if she was tired( Uski Sehat ka raaazZ :P) If we have to go Agra, then I had no tension……. Bcz I knew she wud b dr who wud do all the packing and take care which clothes needs to be shared with saks, no tension for even booking the tickets and unpack the bag when v r bak….  I alwaz used to ask her first for my tiny miny doubts…. (b it related going to official party or matching of my kapde ) But since she got married, I realized what all I have to do on my own……… wo har ek chote-2 kaam which I m forced to do myself and take care of everything to do on time. I remember the day when she came Noida for the first time and blackmailed papa for me to stay with her in Noida (I left my hostel )…. I was very angry but she is v. scchhheeeyaaaannneee – akhir mana hi lia, from then I bcm used to of my jeeee…….. Jo UNIVERSAL JEEEE b ban gae ………. :P MISS U A LOT ……. …..
