Night




All the normal species prefer to have a peaceful sleep at that time and all those who like to do private stuff do it that time(It can be anything).
For me it is the most beautiful part of the day.
The dark clouds, moonlight, stars(Only if you live in a less polluted place), empty roads, silence, subtle soothing breeze makes it a real beauty!
Maximum of my non-materialistic and best memories belong to night.
The late night movies with friends, late night gossips and bitching, remembering old stuff with new friends and telling them stories, listening your favorite music, going through old pictures, trying your ass off to study hard for the exam and ending up talking. Man there are so many..
My best ones are the starting of relationships and ending of them. Those conversations were dramatic, painful, memorable, sweet, lovely, torturing and I can really go on with a list of adjectives but yes the major stuff of my life happened at night!
When I was in high school it all happened when I used to sit on the corner of the bed looking outside the window and now when I stay as a paying guest it all happens on the terrace. All the secret smiling laughing, crying, cursing, abusing, fighting, blaming. All of them happens at night.
And I guess many people of my age belong to this category only.
The night has brought so many precious moments in my life which makes me fall in love with it every time  It has changed so many things in the past few years and it will keep doing it till the next few years.
It does bring solitude at times but it is beautiful as the early morning's sun rays.
Parents and all adults say it is the time when you give rest to yourself but actually it is the time when brain works the most and we take the major decisions of our life.
I look forward to have more such memorable nights which will make keep me falling in love with it again and again.






Expectations


Do we really take the conventional meaning of the word or we have moved beyond it?
Expectations are something which we expect from every single creature on this planet. They can be our  parents, siblings, friends, lovers, etc.
We expect things from others and we are expected to do something for others but then the question arises, Are we expecting too much?
Does the expectation level has increased?
Well in my case yes it has increased in some cases and in some cases it has come to nil.
Our parents expect us to do good academically and they want us to be good citizens and we expect them to lower their expectations and keep our bank accounts filled with enough money and yes treat us like adults but also like little babies when we want to be treated like that.
Siblings are the worst enemies and the best friends. No matter how old we grow,they are always there either as enemies or as friends.
Friends are our non-biological family whom we never feel shy to approach. They give us shelter, food, money, love, booze and every single damn thing they can give to keep us happy. They give us the best and worst moments of our life but yes worst are very few or none if you are really lucky.
Lovers? Do we have sexpectations or expectations?
Well we have both.
Gone is the time when people lived miles and miles away, met each other once in 100 years, loved each other with all of their heart,planned to get married in the start of the relationship and blah blah blah. GONE. So people, specially girls who still live in that dream need to wash their face and have a strong tea or coffee.
Nothing is static and same way the feelings, emotions, people, relationships, jobs, salaries, nothing is static. And with all these changes, our expectations changes.
All we can do is to move with the time without getting the feeling that pehle toh aisa nahi hota tha ab kyu hota hai and the answer is quite simple pehle time bhi toh alag tha na.
The more you grow mentally the more you learn.the more you make mistakes the more you become strong and the more you become less-reliable on others the less you EXPECT!!

All I want to say is we really need to lower our level of expectations.It is right that it is a natural phenomenon as it arises when emotions are involved but at the end of the day everything is in our hands.only we can handle what to give and what to take.
Just move with the time and enjoy the most beautiful gift given to us by our parents ‘LIFE’ because you never know what is going to happen next because IT IS very unpredictable.So stop taking out the flaws in the present and look at the better side and yes EXPECT LESS !!
