I had dreams of entering into a foreign land, a dream to take a long flight journey, a dream to escape from the stressing books, a dream to go on a long vacation, a dream to travel alone, a dream to go away from the much expecting world…..I wouldn’t call it a dream any more because it has become reality…it was more than a surprise to me when few of my long timed dreams had become a reality very soon!
The countdown began few months back, it started shrinking into weeks, then into days, and then into hours…finally the day arrived, the Day for which I was yearning for years…with excitement and eagerness I took my first flight to my destination…a long journey it was which lasted for almost 18 hours…!!
It felt so good, it felt so great…as I recollect the words of A.P.J Abdul Kalam the former president of India to dream, now I realize how inspiring where his words…if I wouldn’t have dream t of all these…I don’t think I would have found a need to achieve them…on this note I remember all the people who were the reason behind my endeavors…!

It was a bright day, as usual I hurry up doing my last minute revisions, I gulp my glass of orange juice and rush to the bus stand. I stand in the stand with my book in my hand with people surrounding me. Every time a bus passes by I take my head from the book but to my dismay it wasn’t the bus in which I travel. My watch is ticking and I wait there impatiently to board the bus, finally it arrives to relieve us. We rush towards the bus. I some how manage to find a window seat for me still having my book in my hand. While I recollect whatever I have read the previous day I hear noise from the other side of the bus. There was a young woman who was fighting for her seat with a middle aged man who seemed really exhausted carrying three bags of his goods. She again started, “Ladies seat…….” followed by divine words which made way through her mouth. I started wondering what Ladies seat actually meant. This reminded me of the other day when I was returning home back from school very tired and fully exhausted after the long day. I boarded the bus only to find it fully packed but to my dismay there was were 6 young women occupying the seats which were meant for us. There were around 7 gents including myself and an old aged man standing in the bus. But nothing moved these females to stand up from the seats. Now I end up if we would have fought for our seats that day they would have surely created a scene so we avoided it…..But today I see a young lady fighting for her seat though she could see that he is exhausted and tired, he stands up with his bags very heavy ones indeed and gives the seat…..Now where is the modesty of this man and that of this women?????……then I continue with my revision.

As I settle down on the couch to watch my favorite movie, the phone rings, I wonder who could it be at 11 in the night, with my own expectations and doubts I pick up the call. I hear a male voice who asks about me and introduces himself to me. Frankly speaking I didn’t have any idea who he was, he then continued that he was from my school, still not convinced I ask him a few questions then with his answers I recollected his face. He studies in XII standard in my school. Now the question in my mind is what does he want at this hour for I study in class XI.
He then begins his story, the first thing he says is that he is in ”LOVE”, and continued that she is in my class. Then I start wondering who would it be, I come up with a few names and finally I guess it right. I am immersed with my thoughts what he wants from me and why he is telling all this to me….he continued that he lost both of his parents and has no one to talk to or express himself expect a few friends, ” I cant live without her, she disturbs me, I feel like dying…..” and here I interrupt. Having an idea of what he is undergoing I decided to help. I then try to convince him, “Studies is more important than anything else and there will be many girls who you will be meeting in your life….and somebody better and much understandable is waiting for you…..” and I continue for almost 2 solid hours, finally having convinced him and he having promised me to concentrate on studies and not to distract himself, I bid goodbye to him and kept the phone down, that night while I was trying to sleep I wonder what is this LOVE??? Is this a four letter word which starts with ‘L’ and ends with ‘E’, with ‘O’ and ‘V’ in the middle or a word which is full of beautiful emotions or a word on which most of movies are based on or a word which is fully commercialized, however it is being called or the whatever it may mean I selpt with a satisfaction of having guided someone to the right path!

There were many to whom I told My story,
But no one could console Me,
Rather made fun of Me,
I was uncontrollable.
I felt sad.
You just saw Me and understood the whole story,
What a surprise???
It might have been a few words You spoke to Me,
But those really made the Change.
You made Me Understand the Facts,
You boosted up My Confidence,
You prepared me to face those Challenges,
You are the Best that I cant dream of ’nother one!!!
Believe Me or not You are THE BEST!!!!!!!!!

Isnt this world simply hilarious,
With betrayers,
Between the understanding ones.
Isnt this world simply ridiculous,
With much expecting parents,
Between the concerned ones.
Isnt this world simply selfish,
With people worried about themselves,
Between the loved ones.
Doesnt this world make me go mad???
Making me run around,
With oppurtunities open to a few,
Wont this world let me enjoy my life,
Wont this world let me free.
Isnt this world simply dominating,
Wont this world let me to think,
Wont this world let me to act,
I wanna tell something to this world…….
“Let Me Be Me”!!!!
