दो दिन की ज़िन्दगी !

ये करे और वो करे, ऐसा करे, वैसा करे,
ज़िन्दगी दो दिन की हैं,
दो दिन में हम क्या क्या करे ?
क्या करे , क्या न करे ...

ಈ ಜೀವನನೆ ಇಷ್ಟು ... ಏನ್ ಮಾಡಬೇಕೋ ಏನ್ ಮಾಡ ಬಾರದೋ...
ಇದೆ ಯೋಚನೆ ಅಲ್ಲೇ ಜೀವನ ಮುಗುಧೋಗುತ್ತೆ ....

Graveyards I pass by everyday...

Everyday i pass by the graveyards of Hindu, Muslim and Christians, while am on my way to office. In the beginning i used to feel scared of these places and lot of negative thoughts used to haunt me. Even today these thoughts haunt my mind.

The other day while i was on my way back to home, i received a call from my hubby .

My Husband- "where are you?"
Me - "Harishchandra Ghat"

As my cab was just passing by Harishchandra Ghat, a Hindu burial place.

My Husband - Are you kidding?
Me - No, am serious.

I guess he might have felt something strange, as we a fight last night. And i was depressed as usual.
I keep thinking that what if I die the next moment?
Feel shocked and feel that I haven't lived my complete life yet!
But then I also feel prepared for my death anytime.

Me - What if am dead very soon?

My Husband - Silent! says if you are talking such rubbish things, then please don't. Gives a sad look to me.

Me - I feel kind of happy that he has concern for me and going to miss me. Though not sure that he is gonna stay single after my gone.


I fear to lose my loved ones, but feel that everybody has to die one or the other day. These graveyards scare me because I do not want to lose my loved ones, instead prefer go first from this world.

Earlier graveyards used to be outside the city. Now they are at the center of the city. We can imagine how the population is exponentially growing. The death rates have gone down due to advanced medication.

Some times i feel that where all humans are chasing themselves to? why all these fights and differences? why this jealousy? When everything is so short lived on this earth.

Why do we care for our skin and looks so much, which is finally going to be destroyed into ashes one day!

But still there are so many products in the market to make oneself beautiful... huh.. everything seems meaningless to me.

So people may say that as long as we are alive we need to look good feel good... yes i agree but not be always thinking and working towards it and waste our precious time as well.

And now are the days, I feel that these are the most safest places on the earth, with full of peace and silence...

I feel that life is so short... and our desires are endless... the people i saw last year, month or day are not there today. Where all of them are gone? I keep wondering. In this cycle of life and death everything is so temporary!

There is a kannada song i remember "allide namma mane, illige bandevu summane" ( Our Home is up somewhere in the sky, and we have come here just like that to visit) sounds so very true indeed!

All such thoughts pass by as i pass by these graveyards, every single day! huh... these thoughts are haunting me, rather than the spirits of these graveyards.

a big sigh.......!
