इश्क का घरौंदा|

-
इश्क करना इतना आसान भी नहीं,
बह उठती है दर्द की सरिता चित्त मे कहीं। 

ज़ुल्म तो देखिए इस प्रपंच का, 
आंखों का पानी भी यहीं, होठों की मुस्कान भी यहीं।
बेचैनी दी इस इश्क ने, नींद का सुकून भी यहीं ।

क्या बताये बात इस अनूठे की, 
अनभिज्ञता और बुद्धिमत्ता का हमारी, अलंकार भी यहीं। 

लगा था कि पाहुना है, इसका पर घरौंदा अब यहीं। 
नजर की इसकी अब भेंट हम भी।

The Illusion of Love I Learned… from Movies…

Ever since I was a child, I watched movies where a perfectly ambitious, self-dependent woman would get married and almost instantly dissolve her identity into a good wife, a good DIL, a good mother, a good daughter --- everything… except herself. She would stop relying on herself and become dependent on her husband. And it seems nobody cares, not even she herself. How ironic!  She is not the only one losing herself in this arrangement. He is too. Two things happens with him also, almost instantly: 1. The man, who is ambitious, settles into being a “family man” and somewhere along the way,  forgets what he truly wanted.  2. The one who could barely understand his own emotions is now expected to carry hers too, manage them and live around them for the rest of his life. How ironic!  If she can become a GOOD mother, wife, daughter-in-law, daughter, yet fail to be GOOD AND KIND to herself,  And he can become a GOOD husband, father, brother, son-in-law, yet fail ...

कहानी एक मजदूर की

आया था शहर ये सोचकर,  दे सकूंगा अपने बच्चो को दो वक़्त की रोटी मेहनत कर। रूखी सूखी जुगाड कर चला रहा था काम अपना, अब भटक रहा हूं दर बदर। बहुत दूर है गांव मेरा, पहुंचूं अब वहां क्या कर। चल तो पड़ा हूं परिवार लेकर, खाता हूं ठोकर पर मै दिन भर। छोटे छोटे पांव मेरे बच्चो के, दिन भर चल के थक जाते है। कंधे पर लेने लगु, हम ठीक है कह कर ना जाने इतनी हिम्मत कहां से लाते है। सुना है विदेश से एक वायरस आया, जिसने है हमारा भविष्य खाया। काम ख़त्म हो गया,  इससे पहले कुछ समझ आया। शहर का रहा , ना गांव का रहा, मालिक का रहा , ना सरकार का रहा। बच्चो को मेरे अब रोटी कैसे खिलाऊं, मैं अब घर कैसे जाऊं? वायरस का पता नहीं, पर भूखमरी मार देगी, अपने ही देश में ये बेकद्री मार देगी। दिया है वोट उम्मीदों से, सुन लो ए सरकार। मैं वही मजदूर हूं, जिसके घर कल तुम वादे ले कर आए थे, भूला दूंगा सब गिले शिकवे, आज बस दे दो रोटी, जाने दो घर।

The mind tricks they play!

Some time back, I brought Horlicks for my son, and with it came a free pack of "Avengers Infinity Wars- Super Hero cards'. I and my son loved playing the cards game. The cards looked like this: (Src: https://www.reddit.com/r/marvelstudios/comments/b6ijhm/my_infinity_war_not_so_limited_edition_trading/ ) Each playing card has certain characteristics. They are (in order): Height, Intelligence, Strength, Speed, Super-Power. A number was assigned in front of each attribute on each card.  Let us take a close look at one of the cards: This card game made my lockdown life a little easier as I could keep my child engaged for about an hour in a day. Thank you,  Horlicks  for rolling out these cards as without even watching any movie my child became an Avengers fan. Although this game is fun to play with,  it has made my child believe that Thanos is unbeatable . Here is the card: This is how  mind tricks  are played on the public by successful advertisers. The method...
