A Christmas Wish

Dear Santa,
What should I write to you…When you know everything.And if you know everything then why is there so much disappointment?So much pain and so much hurt everywhere around.Why aren’t there smilling and cheerful faces like you around?How can you smile when there is so much wrong going around everywhere.Are you smiling at the irony of it?Or at the foolishness of us humans?

Are the material gifts you give enough to make us forget about everything?For how long do you expect us to be just kids who are happy with toys.Who are unconcerned about the greater realities of life.I can’t do that anymore.I am aware of what’s happening around and I am not content with it.There is this rage,restlessness and bitterness concerning all what is there which should not be.Can you gift me a world where man is not the biggest enemy of another man.Where people understand each other and respect each other,can you take back your gifts of jealousy,hatred and selfishness from mankind?This Christmas can you just make me a small promise that you will make sure that everybody has two times meal to eat ?Just this much dear Santa.
Yours lovingly,
Priya

Being a twenty something ain't easy

Yes,life will change.All your friends ,the group will not be together.Forever would become a delusionary word,one of those hollow words which loses its significance when reality befalls.Life will never be the same.Love and relationships is what will seem the hottest topic to be discussed around the corner.Marriage would be the word you would dread off and want too.If all this is true you definitely are about to be 25 and more to follow.You would wish that the time should become still and you can live forever the life you have been living.Long STD phone calls and memoirs of the past is what you will be left with.You would frequently receive news from friends getting engaged or married and every conversation with any age group will end up in asking you the most dreaded question:So when are you getting married?As if it’s the latest fashion trend and you are left out and don’t have any idea about it.People will lecture you on being more responsible and you are left wondering haven’t living alone far from home since so many years proves that I am responsible and independent and can take good care of myself.If you can relate to all this then welcome to the elite group of adult and responsible people,yess you are no longer a kid though you still love to do kiddish things at many a times.
