Rains During travel can be so refreshing!!



Somebody truly said, “Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass... It’s about learning to dance in the rains!!” So, true!! Rain can be termed as a real touch from God!! It could heal you physically or emotionally or both. Therefore, the best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain & enjoy every single drop pouring on oneself.

Yep, I had been a diehard fan of God’s one of the greatest ways of showering blessings to us. Yes, I am talking about rains!! And when rains pour during a long journey, the journey just becomes worth appreciating & enjoying. I experienced this charisma of the lovely combo of travel plus rains recently, while my visit to Rajasthan. Known for its deserts, Rajasthan hardly sees enough showers during rainy season. But, you call it my good luck or God’s gift that my travel was blessed with beautiful rain showers right from the commencement.

Even the normal green trees look lush green in rains. The drops on the tips of the leaves can be so soothing to your eyes. The clouds in the sky seem as if they are smiling to bless us with the beautiful rains showers. The breeze is so serene that it touches your soul. Above all, while you are on the move, you can witness the beauty of varied parts of the land & nature, thus appreciating it to the full. The land becomes greener and the aroma of the soil just adds to the flavour.

Such was the experience during my sojourn. I was glued to the window seat with my eyes fully focused on the thunder showers pouring outside. Striking light effects in the sky, followed by loud roar of clouds made it evident that light travels faster than sound. But surpassing my scientific knowledge, I just let go my feelings flow freely. I couldn’t help but smile all the way till I fall asleep, only the drops to make my face even prettier. I was feeling as if I could fly, had I wings to do so.

As if the train journey wasn’t enough as a gift that God decided to unwrap more surprises for me. The parts of land that usually experience scanty rains at Rajasthan were blessed with rains, during my road trip too. It was so refreshing to feel the drops on my cheeks and to feel the breeze on myself. Rains are fun, I always knew that. But Rains during travel can be so much relaxing and rejuvenating, I discovered during the journey. I am still mesmerised by the beautiful sceneries of nature, which just added to my faith of loving rains. I thank God for blessing us with such a beautiful gift of rains.

What’s your take on rains?

Psssshhhh.... What’s in there???


Hey, did you see that..? Oye, do you know I read her messages secretly..? Boss, I got a chance to broke in to his mail box & got to know he has got a job offer!! Do you know I got to know that she had a fight with her boy-friend, I heard it secretly..!! Bla Bla Bla Bla...!! Surprised? Confused? Scratching your head? Welcome to the world of CORPORATE GOSSIPS..!!

The best job profile in today’s corporate world is that of an “Office Gossiper!!” After all, they enjoy what they do because of being born & brought up in such an ambiance. Moreover, they are getting paid for it, too. But, what about the main stream of work for which ACTUALLY they were being hired?? Aaaaah... How does it matter, yaar..!!! All they need to do is just secretly broke in to somebody’s laptop, mobile phone or get oneself involved in to eavesdropping & there you are..!! You’ve everybody’s secrets at your kitty..!! Spread, use & become famous..!!

All the above mentioned instances would definitely boil blood of any matured human being. Today’s corporate world is over stuffed with such “termites,” whose sole purpose of coming to office is to gossip. While doing so, they not only encroach our personal space, but also disrespect the corporate ethics, rules & policies. Personal life is something which one would like to share it with very few near & dear ones. Even “termites” know this, but God knows what kind of family produces such people, who aren’t matured enough to think that ways!! So, what’s the solution to deal with such “termites?”

What do you do with “real termites?” Relax..!!! No need to finish them, physically. After all, you can’t stoop to their level, just to deal with them? The simple solution is “Modern Gandhigiri.”  We all have seen “Lagey Raho Munnabhai,” just like that “beemar hotey hain aisey log!!” We should help them to get well soon. Counsel them once or twice & tell them about their “sickness!!” Tell them it has got a lot of after-effects (like getting beaten up publicly at times, getting socially boycotted or even might end up losing job). See, it’s so simple & you don’t even need to treat them inhumanly ways!! In short, show them the real mirror that they might have to face, as a part of the consequences of their “sickness.”

After all, “termites” also do have their own personal lives. So, they would be able to understand, relate or at least can learn to respect (which is doubtful) personal spaces of their colleagues, friends, bosses and off-course their subordinates too. Just in case, any “termite” reading this blog of mine, I wish that you get well soon & start respecting personal spaces of people at offices too. You are hired for a particular profile & please do justice to at least that profile (if not to your own existence!!).

There might be many people who are in real life affected by such “termite attack.” Please, feel free to share any such experiences & if you had dealt with them in any other way, do share here with us. Feel free to comment, suggest, advice or criticize on the posts, friends!!
