A Mighty Heart...

They say, when it rains it pours. I was wondering why it was torrenting and tormenting my hapless heart. The day’s horoscope was equally befuddling, " Thanks to the Mercury’s continued support to Moon, you will be on the crest of a wave of great possibilities." Hell to kayaking on the waves of great possibilities, I am already neck deep in the troubled waters, flooded by the mundane of things. The ever-calling Boss and Never calling Girlfriend, an ever-ringing Cell Phone and Never inviting Neighbor, Never ending Sas-Bahu Melodrama and Ever Exposing ‘Breaking’ News Channels….. This list seems to ever increase these ingredients to put me in the Soup, so detasteful and nauseating. And you just can’t even wish them away.

Somehow, I had found my own way to not let me screwed by these great possibilities unraveling every day in my life. I started reading a big fat Book by a Best selling Management Guru. After grinding through those 800 tortuous pages, I got a inkling what that Guru was trying hard to tell me, " Be a Man of your own destiny.". I made a promise to myself to be a different Man from then onwards. Super Stuff was flowing inside me. But Destiny had other plans in store for me. My resolve vanished into thin air the very next day when I went to my corner Kirana Store to buy a Mosquito Repellant. Shopkeeper showed me variants of mosquito repellants- Malaria, Dengue, Chickenguniya … there was one variant for AIDS too. Heavens! Do I really have any choice to be Man of my own Destiny. I can’t decide on the things as lousy as Mosquito repellant.
Is there any way to find solace for my Mighty Heart? May be it needs a sod little excuse to smile and enjoy. Forget global warming. El Nino or fickle westerly disturbances, I was praying to Rain God for the early showers of Monsoon. Let it rain, pour and invigorate new seeds of hope in my Barren Heart.
Come and Join me in welcoming the Monsoons…FOR SAKE OF MY ALONE MIGHT HEART.
