The Exhibitionist Eventide

General, Picture Talk 47 Comments

Hello my fabulous readers. A marvelous day to you all. I am back with yet another sit-on-your-hand content. Just a while ago, while browsing through my photos gallery, I saw many pics of clouds and in the next few minutes I came across the meme saying that we all turn into professional photographers whenever we see clouds. It instantly kicked me and I lollygagged with my blog and penned down this article, “Cloud Exists, Photu Photu“. Today the same thing happened. I saw that I have many sunset photographs, and here is my content.

Who does not want to be Opacarophile? What happens to you when you see the effulgence of a pink sunset? It is ineluctable to avoid such a majestic view. But what if I say that, the pink sunset or “afterglow” is caused due to pollution, dust and smoke in the atmosphere. Well, It’s not what it seems. It’s an irony of life saying, all magic always comes with a price.

Kristen Butler said this line, “Sunsets are proof that no matter what happens, every day can end beautifully”. Well, beautifully said. When the sun is on the verge of setting, it gives an immense pleasure and it really feels like the problem will also set in this beautiful way. But what we see is the darkness that follows the sunset. But don’t forget that before sunset, the sun is unbearable to our eyes. But still the sun sets in an astonishing way. That means, the endings are beautiful. Yes, the darkness follows. But after every darkness, there is a light i.e. sunrise. This whole process provides a salve for our guilt. 

A perfect sunset has the power to stop anyone. It literally makes people forget what important work they were doing. Such an attention seeker right? But this attention seeker helps us to flush out all our toxic energy and makes us believe in love at first sight. Even if we are fighting with someone, then this attention seeker will not only stop our fight but also enhance our mood and our conversation automatically goes lighter. A sunset is nirvana to all.

The last ray of sun, while setting down, is a perfect example of “Not to give up”. It rejuvenates us. Every sunset is different from the previous day. We are always ready to capture this moment with our lense. But if you are a professional photographer and if you have a professional camera, then only you will get a perfect pic. Not all cameras capture the perfect sunset. But yet it’s photogenic.  

What do you do right after sunset? I always search for the star. The first star, Venus. And then suddenly, you will be an astrophile. In that, if a full moon appears then Selenophile. and if not, and if electricity goes away, then you will be a combination of nyctophile and astrophile.

As it is said, the sun sets to rise again. Same way, take a break from your hectic busy days so that you can start fresh. Meanwhile enjoy some more pics of sunset, along with the sunset video. Also try to solve the different names of the Sun’s name.

Hello my fabulous readers. A very good day to you all. After a long time, I decided to pen down a horror story and so today I am a ghost writer. To begin with, my favorite disclaimer. This story is fictional. The characters in this story are fictional and it has nothing to do with the real world. This story is nothing but just my imagination. So just read and forget. and blah blah.

6 friends; Neeta, Suhana, Lavita, Sharad, Aman and Vicky, went to a cozy destination. All were very excited as they met after many years. But there was one more friend, Dhiraj,  who had recently died due to illness. So they had to leave that emotion behind and decided not to stress themselves and enjoy this vacation. After visiting nearby sightseeings, they all decide to go back to the hotel, by walking. But the driver was requesting them not to walk. Because he had just heard about Diraj’s death. and he was a little superstitious. Still the friends decided to walk.

After walking for a few minutes, there was silence. One of them took Dhiraj’s name. Upon taking his name, one-by-one starting recollecting all memories attached with Dhiraj. But Neeta started talking negatively about him. Neeta claimed that Dhiraj was not at all a good guy and she is very happy about his death. Others were not so happy with the remarks given by this girl. Neeta didn’t go into detail and they all continued to walk. They reached the hotel room. All were upset and continuously thinking about Neeta’s remark.

Neeta, upon reaching her room, took a quick shower and decided to watch TV. She opened the drawer for the TV’s remote control. In that drawer, there was one envelope, with her name written on it. When she opened the envelope, there was blank paper. She was confused. “What’s this? Why is my name written on it? And why is this blank?”. She kept on thinking about it. She didn’t have a peaceful sleep.

Next day, Neeta was thinking whether to share this incident with her friends or not. Since Neeta had already spread negativity last night, and hence she didn’t want to spoil her friend’s mood again. She decided not to share things. But Aman came shouting at her. Neeta was clueless. After sometime, Vicky also came shouting at her. Upon asking they said that Neeta knocked the door, middle of the night, left one envelope on the door. The envelope had their name, with a note saying “From, Neeta”. 

“I have not done that? Why would I do that? And even if I pranked, why would I write my own name? What kind of prank is this? Then, what did you do after receiving this envelope?”, asked Neeta.
“I came to your room, I knocked on the door many times. Even called you. But you neither opened the door nor you picked up the call”, said Vicky.
Neeta –  “No phone calls from you dear. Please stop this nonsense. And I was awake almost the whole night. No sign of knocking the door. You must have knocked someone else’s door.”
Vicky – “This is your number, right? check your phone”.
Neeta – “See, no calls. Aman, what did you do after receiving the envelope?”
Aman – “What an idiot you are Neeta, I came to your room. I was in your room the whole night. Infact In morning, I left your room. We had a chat about Dhiraj. You told me the whole truth about Dhiraj.”

Neeta was perplexed. She didn’t understand what was going on.
Neeta – “Aman. What rubbish Aman. I was alone in my room. And you were not around. In fact I too received an envelope. But it was in drawver. But my note is empty. I decided not to discuss this with you all because yesterday I had spoken enough. I didn’t want to spoil this trip. I seriously don’t know what’s going on. I didn’t write any letters to you. I didn’t knock on your door. My door was not knocked. I didn’t get Vicky’s call and I was not with you, Aman. What’s going on?”

They all were silenced. Sharad suggested a handwriting match. But it was typewritten.
Neeta – “See, this is typewritten. Where the hell will I find a computer or typewriter to write this nonsense?”

After all this mess, they decided to leave the matter and go sightseeing. All were waiting in the lobby. But Suhana was late. She said she will take some time because her stomach is upset. Lavita decided to stay with Suhana. and the rest all went to play indoor games. After some time, Lavita came crying.
Lavita – “Where is suhana? I was in her room. She was in the bathroom. So I didn’t disturb her. But she took too long. I went to check on her. When I knocked on the bathroom door, she didn’t respond. Upon knocking and pushing the door hard, the door opened. But no one was inside. Where is Suhana? She is not in her room. She is not in the bathroom. “

Everyone rushed to Suhana’s room. She was not there. They all checked the hotel. Tried her cell phone. but she didn’t pick. No sign of Suhana. Police were called to check the whole hotel. Now, it is more than 24 hrs. No sign of Suhana. She is still missing. All friends were in the lobby, waiting and trying her cell phone. Next day, Suhana shows up for breakfast. They all panicked.

Suhana – “What happened? Why are you asking such questions? You all forgot kya? We had a night stay at that campfire? Morning 5am we all came back.”
Lavita = “We all? Who we all? We all were here in the hotel. Didn’t went anywhere. We all were searching for you. Even filed a complaint in the police station. With whom did you go to campfire?”
Suhana – “What rubbish? of course you all were there. Ask the driver.”

Police did a detailed investigation. Suhana kept on saying that they all were at a campfire and came back in the morning, 5am. Even the driver confirmed the same. But all other friends were denying it. Police went to the campfire site and they said, no one came except one girl with her driver. Suhana was in shock. but instead of the driver, they pointed at Sharad and said, “Suhana was here with her driver Sharad”.

How come Sharad will be at 2 places at the same time? Everyone was scared as shit. Even the Police were confused now what to do. No one’s statement was matching with the other’s. They all were scared as hell and decided to come back to their hometown.

On the day of checkout, Aman got a phone call from the police. Police said they have found Sharad’s body. Aman was scared as hell. Because Sharad was right in front of him. If Sharad is dead, then who is this boy in front of him? And  if he is alive then whose body did the police find? Aman ran from the room. Sharad was confused and he too started running behind him. Aman shouting like hell. All the other friends came out of the room. Aman explained what happened in the room. Sharad started laughing.
Sharad – “You idiot. I am alive and I am not a ghost. Police must have found someone else’s body. Or the police must have dialed the wrong number. Let’s all go to the police station and check.”

They all went to the police station. The police were shocked to see Sharad alive. and they all were shocked to see Sharad’s look-a-like dead body. As if Sharad had a twin brother. Police and friends were clueless. “Is this real?”.Many questions were unanswered. Police decided to check everything from the start. They were told each and everything in detail but got nothing in hand.

Main Plot:
Dhiraj and Neeta were caring and Neeta was serious about the relationship. She wanted marriage. But Dhiraj denied and they had a breakup. Neeta was very angry at him. But their relationship was private. and hence nobody knew about their affair. Neeta wanted to tell this to everyone but soon Dhiraj died due to illness. Now, even if Neeta tells everyone about their relationship, nobody will believe her. Day and night, Neeta became more upset and she wanted peace. When on vacation, Neeta tried to tell everyone but her fear came true and nobody believed her. And soon a series of incidents happened.

If this is Dhiraj’s soul then why is he harassing Neeta? Actually, Dhiraj didn’t wanted to harass Neeta. He just wanted to communicate with her and wanted to tell her that he is a good guy. He didn’t marry her just because he knew that he would die soon. But Aman knew about Dhiraj’s health condition and also about the relationship with Neeta. And hence Dhiraj decided to communicate with Aman so that through Aman, Neeta’s all questions will get answered. So was the envelope scene. That night, Aman had actually gone to Neeta’s room and they had a discussion the whole night. But Aman played here. Aman didn’t say anything good about Dhiraj. In fact, Aman lied and in that he won Neeta’s attention. Dhiraj was scattered to see this. And hence he played the envelope game with Vicky as well. Just to scare Aman, Vicky and Neeta. Neeta, on the other hand, lied the next day and said that she was alone in the room and was awake the whole night.

After the Night scene with Neeta, when Aman left her room in the morning, he got caught by Suhana. But Suhana chose to keep quiet about the new relationship with Neeta. Dhiraj was mad like hell. He decided to teach her a lesson. So the next day Suhana went to a campfire with everyone. But everyone was at the hotel. and in Campfire’s management eyesight only Suhan and Sharad were there. Suhana will never get her answer with whom she went to campfire? Why all are denying, etc.

After coming out from Neeta’s room, and after getting caught by Suhana, Aman went to Sharad’s room. Aman grossly talks about Neeta. He revealed everything to him. To which Sharad also decided to play dirty with Neeta.  Dhiraj cried in hell. Neeta was not at all in safe hands. So he created an image of Sharad’s dead body. Now, Sharad has many questions. “Whose dead body was that? Who went to a campfire with Suhana? etc”.

After all the investigation, everyone found it a little weird. But Neeta understood about this paranormal activity. She went to her room, sat quietly and thought of Dhiraj. She understood each and every play. She felt very bad for Lavita and Vicky, because they had to go through this unnecessarily. Still Neeta has few complaints. When Dhiraj loved her so much then why didn’t he tell her the truth about his illness. If Dhiraj wanted the relationship to be private, Neeta would have kept it private and she would have agreed to all his terms and conditions. If Dhiraj would have spoken truth to Neeta beforehand, then Neeta would have not fallen for Aman and spoil her future and also Lavita and Vicky would be stress free.

Life is short. Keep it simple. If you know your future, at least inform your loved ones. So that you enjoy every moment with them. Don’t depend on a third person to do that. You never know who and when the person will change. Do your best in that moment, and God will do the rest.

Hello my fabulous readers. A very fantastic day to you all. Recently, I came across this series called  ‘Mental Hood’ starring Karisma Kapoor, Dino Morea, Sanjay Suri and others on zee5. It’s a good series and there were two best things I liked about that series. One was the role of Dino Morea, a single father in mother’s friend circle and second was Karisma Kapoor’s blog. Every night she used to write very short and sweet blogs on kids and parenthood and what she learned today as a parent. And hence, it came in my mind to write about the same, parenthood. 

Parenting is actually an easy task. But we make it laborious and demanding because what we see is our neighborhood. We judge our own child, because we have seen other children speaking very well. Here we don’t see any other factor. For example, if the child speaks well but might be the child’s behaviour must not be good at home or the child must not be good at eating or the child must be not good in studies, etc. We all don’t see those factors. What we saw was just his speaking skills and hence we ourselves made the parenting task difficult.

Kids need your own help. He or she doesn’t need any experts. Kids are very friendly and open only with their own parents. All you have to do is just be with them all the time. But what we follow is the rules of society. As such there are no rules, still we womens make these nonsense rules. Rule no 1; as a mother I am allowed to make only mothers as friends. I can’t make a non-mother as my friend. I mean, why this rule? Why can’t I make my own friend circle? why it has to be a mother group only. So here, just because we want to know how other kids behave and what their solutions are. And then we try to implement the same on our kids. I am not saying that the solutions are bad but every child is different. Some kids understand in one sentence, and some need a complete story. We mothers make other mothers as our friends, just because our kids get company. But aren’t we forcing them to make friends as per our wish? here, we are not allowing them to make their own friends.

Like adults, kids have their own ego. They might also not like other kids. So in such a case, as a mother what you will do? Just remove that mother from the friend circle. Right na? Whose loss? Kids have their own world. Let them discover their own friends. Let them choose their own friend.

Whether it is about behaviour or explaining to kids about the menstruation cycle, we mothers always end up asking for solutions and suggestions from other mothers. But we also request teenage girls to look after our kids. Means, we trust them to be a parent to our child, but don’t trust them as their mentor. Try asking them once, I am sure, they definitely will have a perfect solution or suggestion for this. But unfortunately that teenage girl will not be in my friend circle. Obviously, because of some rules. Try keeping kids in different age groups. Let them learn some things from kids who are older than them and some things from the kids who are younger than them. Don’t restrict your kid to be in the same age group.

One thing, I will definitely say this, never teach your kids that “It’s ok”. No, It’s not ok. Teach them to fight back. Teach them to increase their voice if it’s against their wish. If some kid is unnecessarily harassing your kid, then teach your kid to harass them back or else teach them to say “No”  in a loud voice. But we teach them not to say “fuck”, not to show middle finger, etc. Dear parents, if “fuck” is bad word then “Kiss”, “hug” is also bad word. If “fuck you” is a bad sentence, then “kiss you”, “hug you” are also a bad sentences. Like “Fuck”, even “kiss”, “hug” involves body parts and please our whole body is private, not just few parts. Same way, we use the middle finger for some other work also. Like, sometimes, I use my middle finger just to press elevator buttons or sometimes I use my middle finger just to rub my eyes. But that doesn’t mean that I am showing my middle finger to everyone. So if you want to teach all these “bad” things to kids, then please teach them completely and in a proper way. Incomplete knowledge will lead to unnecessary fights between kids and kids will end up giving incomplete-knowledge-complaints to parents. Just imagine, kid crying and pointing at you and complaining that you showed them middle finger, but in reality you where just pointing out something. and that parent will take those incomplete-knowledge-complaints seriously.

I had been to this function, where I was making my child eat with my hands. This lady (not a mother) pounced on me and started giving me lectures that my daughter should know how to eat by herself. She should know her own work etc etc. The thing is, my daughter knows how to eat by herself. But yes, not only in that function but in every function, I make her eat by my hands because in such functions kids are hyperactive and they want to play, play and just play. They forget to eat. and even if we force them then they will have very small quantities. Hence I made this rule for my daughter and i.e. you play, but when it’s food time, you eat properly and then play again. Obviously, my daughter doesn’t listen and hence I make her eat by myself. In this way, even I am satisfied and tension free. I know kids should do at least their own work, but what’s wrong if we give priority to their importance first.  Functions don’t happened everyday.

Let the kids be kids. Don’t try to make them adult. Teach kids only what is necessary, no need to teach them everything. To be very honest, if you are watching TV in front of your kid, and then teaching them not to use “Fuck” word, is absolutely nonsense. Instead, stop watching such TV shows in front of kids. Even knowingly-unknowingly, cartoons portray wrong things. Remember, “Popeye The Sailor Man ” cartoon. We laughed a lot while watching that cartoon, even enacted like Popeye and Spinach became every kids favorite vegetable. But actually that cartoon used to show harassment against women, everyday. So that means, even cartoons are not that safe for kids. You have to watch each and every episode that your kids are watching on tv /mobile. and hence teach them everything in detail, or don’t teach them at all. but don’t give half knowledge to them.

Teaching and learning must be fun. Some parents go for a second child just to teach “what is responsibility?” to the first child. This is at most nonsense. Yes, this mentality still persists. Overnight, you can’t order your first child to grow up. This can lead to jealousy. You can’t say this line to your first child, “Don’t watch TV. I want to cook food, keep an eye on your younger one”.

Kids have their own way of expressing their feelings. Some say in clear sentences, some just prefer to keep quiet. Talking to them in a very soft tone is the only solution. Loud tones will make it more scary. If talking doesn’t help  then go for mobile and tv. Show some moral stories on youtube and then ask them what happened. Definitely they will answer. Going digital, in order to teach your kids, is not at  all bad. In fact this generation is the digital generation and kids learn in a practical way rather than in a theoretical way.

So lets kids be kids. Parenting skills are in everyone. Even teenagers will do better parenting than us. It’s all in our head how we look at our kid. To judge them how they are, or to judge them how others are. Happy Parenting. Hope you all enjoy reading this post. Do like and comment. Pingbacks will be appreciated.
