One of the best picture ever!



it was yesterday when I and my roomies went to see the Cherry Blossom Festival in Tidal Basin, Washington DC. It was such a good day as we took a lot of pictures ;-)
I liked one picture in particular, so thought of asking concept of the picture:
Swarup: (The guy in the center)...you know ashutosh, right now i wouldn't be able to explain you, cuz' I have been working on a research paper and I am sick of it ...but I think in this picture three of us are showing our ass to the camera-man and encouraging him to take our picture and post it on some web-site.. .lol...
now it's Karun (The guy in the right) turn ...
Karun: In this picture we are standing together and looking at Washington Monument, it is kinda indication of thinking big, now you tell us what do you like so special about the picture that you are bugging both of us ..
Me: well friends, I can formulate a story out of this picture ...which i would like to share with both of you ...this is a story of three guyz, who belongs to three different parts of a holy country ...three of them are standing in different direction but focusing on the same object...their aim, their destiny ...all of them have different thoughts/plans in their mind (as shown in the picture), its kinda hard to tell about their emotions (whether they are happy, depressed, enthusiastic etc)..since the picture is not showing their faces ....they want to reach some where but the hurdles are everywhere ....river is stopping them to cross through, road is also not visible anywhere ....and it has started turning dark.
...but the white flowers (cherry blosooms) are indication of new hopes for them, new dawn ....may be a revolution ... the three faces are up and thinking beyond the normal human being's expectation, and they are thinking to finding a new way to get there ...it's neither by crossing the river nor through the road ...no one but they know about it!!!!

Phir Ghalib!!

"Bhid se alag dikhne pardes chala tha ghalib,
chand paise kamane aur kuch naam karne ke liye sir-per chala tha ghalib,
kaal ke chakra main aur paredes ki hawa main kuch is kadar khoya,
ki bhid se alag dikhna to dur, bhid main jaane layak bhi na raha paya ghalib"


---------------------------

This shayri is composed by me and it is tributed to Galib. This is specially for people who come abrod with big dreams and ignore values of little things ... but when life starting acting on them ...they start appreciating the beauty of their home, their people, their country

... ghalib expresses here that they can get better visibility even staying in their own country ...as long as they understand human values and contribute towards it...
