In the Times of Postman

Remember the times when letters were the best way to connect with relatives, cousins or friends!
The Airmail, Inland letters or envelopes were perhaps the most awaited posts in every home!

They would be the always welcomed visitor in any locality!
Clad in the brown khadi uniform, riding on a bicycle or even by walk!

They could be seen carrying a Gandhian style sling cloth bag full of neatly arranged deliverables!
He definitely basked in a lot of blessings as every letter carried abundance of emotions!

Any news and every news of a family traveled miles and weeks, finally to the address by this amazing gentlemen!
At times they would also read out the content to the elderly people who would have tears of joy brimming in the eyes !

The times when pen friends we're trending, they would make a child smile by shouting out about their letter from a distance!
Festival times meant the busiest times as their bag would be full of cards and gifts from across the country!

They would take a break during those times as people would treat them with kindness served via tea and snacks!
Any pleasant news to any house would guarantee a share in kind and cash that epitomized sincere gratitude to him!

Some of them were extremely knowledgeable and given a chance, would discuss about any topic under the Sun!
I remember the smile of the postman who visited our colony, once in two weeks!

Even though the trend of hand written letters has become outdated with electronic mails and social media connecting people across the globe, within seconds and often taken for granted!
The immense joy while receiving a letter from our dear ones, as a surprise through the earnest postmen, was much more than words can express!

The Tiny Cherubs

They are bestowed with the purest form of energy that is devoid of apprehensions.

They are quick in connecting with people who have a high quotient of love and compassion.

They strike a chord of familiarity with an irresistible smile that remains for a while.

They do not follow the hardwired baseless rules of the society to make friends.

They are themselves unfettered by the shade of the skin or the holy books of worship defining religion.

They are like the gentle breeze and enjoy their carefree life filled with oodles of happiness.

They can melt any heart when seen indulging in the process of relishing ice cream or chocolate.

They have a charm that for sure spreads kindred virtues in one world beyond their designated roots seeding preconceived notions in one society.

They are healers in disguise as their touch can create an aura of absolute calm, joy and peace.

They are excellent in dramatics without even having a professional degree or training.

They are smart problem solvers are they have their own interpretations to lighten up any situation.

They are honest in their expressions of love and the concept of detachment when radiating love.

They become adorable best friends, with those who shower selfless love, in their joyful journey of life with grace.

They are the magic, a blessing and a true gift of the Divine, to bind humans with unconditional love to be grateful for.

A love that is as natural as the stream of fresh water from a mountain range, touching and enlivening anything on the way with the language of pure love.

Warriors in White Coat with Angelic Hands

They are the ones who hold us first and smile, the moment you come to the world,

They are the angels who welcome us with a smile of compassion and care,

While we are nestled safely and growing gradually inside a sacred womb,

They gently watch us from the outside and keep a close check on our slightest sign of movement,

They always remember us in their silent prayers as they know that we are the most precious token of love from the Supreme Creator,

They are dutiful as they detach and handle every obstacle coming our way with a strong faith in their years of knowledge and expertise,

They are the ones in who rejoice wholeheartedly seeing our first cry-n-smile and when you are taken away for a reason unexplained by the Supreme, they cry-n-dry,

They are always there for us, anywhere and everywhere helping us heal with a positive zeal,

They devote their entire life in serving the society, selflessly and tirelessly,

They base their religion on humanity and offer their service on practicality,

They are the warriors in white coat teaming up to fight the threat to human race and rise high with our towering trust,

They are indeed, the divine healers who lend their angelic hands to protect and save every life on earth as they know we are precious.

I am thankful to doctors, nurses and every medical representative working all day, all night, to render their highest service to mankind across the globe in association with the invisible power of the divine.

Naysayers , thank you!

While we look at admiring the good in the people who are good to us,

We also ought to understand that there are those with indifferent of opinion who tend to rule the society,

They have their self conceived notion about caste, creed, color and everything under the Sun,

Much with the intent of portraying others in frame of the misfits,

They are the ignorant and self -bragging class whose ignorance outshines every quality leading to wishing for 

well-being of human race,

Mostly they are wonderful examples for their acquired habits of their upbringing in the dogmatic society,

They definitely stand as a positive challenge for those who walk the talk of pragmatic virtues,

Well they do deserve a bit of gratitude and sympathy, but no respect or kindness,

It is for them that we see that people rise up from the hollowing fears infused by the naysayers,

To emerge as self- reliant, confident, inspiring individuals who defy anything that is against humanity,

To lead an honest life based on being good to oneself and to others in thoughts, words and action,

Coz kindness has an eternal presence and it only grows stronger even when the cynics aim to rule the masses,

It is a big world and thanks to the naysayers, humanity always wins hearts and gifts altruistic citizens of highest honor.

Teachers Matter in Every Child's Life

The journey of learning, begins with a teacher, is meaningful through their words of wisdom and the best foundation,

A foundation, where every fear in our subconscious mind is removed through their distinct quality of love and empathy,

Empathy that is embellished in the fine art of recognizing the best in each pupil's talent hub,

Talent that is guided to attain perfection through years of dedicated practice and faith,

Faith of every child as they epitomize their teachers as their true guide, friend and mentor,

A mentor who has a gifted heart that is impartial, forever loving and always positive,

Positive about delivering the right knowledge through their excellent subject matter expertise that is upgraded with time,

Time that teachers make the fullest use of with proper planning and implementation,

Implementation of new ways of teachers makes them unleash their own creativity,

Creativity in their profession that comes to them naturally and effortlessly as they are the warriors

 who only win,

Win because every child's process is their personal responsibility and they invest the precious hours in giving the best shine to every diamond,

Diamonds that stand unique and united as they are processed and chiseled to radiate the best shine,

A shine that is bestowed by the supreme powerhouse of education who ignite the seed of knowledge through ancient wisdom, resilience during present times and humanitarian virtues to flourish

for the lifetime,

A lifetime that seems not enough to thank every teacher for their altruist ways to deliver the best version of a child, thus being rightly respected and loved, next to the parent,

Parents do everything to see their child happy while teachers identify the right string of a child's ability to help them realize the to strike the right chord with the best qualities to lead a happy life.

I am thankful to every teacher in my life who have helped me in every way, to become the best version of me in everything I choose to do.
