Smartphones have been around a while but it's only recently that I gave in to my whim and finally purchased one. I guess you could call me a procrastinator, although I'd like to think of myself more as a late bloomer. For some phone junkies out there, smartphones may have gotten boring and dull, but I think they're the most fascinating tech around. My smartphone has become a particular source of wonder to me as of late. If like me, you're not very technical and getting acquainted with your new phone is taking a little longer than normal, then check out these amazing things you may not know your phone can do.

To take a tincture of drugs is an option.To smoke and feel the rush in blood is also an option.To drink a drink which lowers the intensity of struggle you feel in side your head is still another option you choose. But what about an option you never made?What about the illusions and delusions you faced because of this option? She stands in front of this mirror.He stands in front of that mirror.Both are keenly gazing at their reflections.It's 20th year of their life.Both look from up to down..up to down.Both talks inside their head.It's just one year ..one year!. But suddenly ! She starts crying.She shouts ," I never wanted to wake up from this dream".But he whispers , "it's for good,it's good to wake up from dreams which makes you illogical". Cards of emotions were piled up when they were 16 .Emotions were on high .Reality was farce.Some chemicals inside their body used to play.They were like forced drugs injected in their body.But as you know th

If  there is one thing which benefits you most is a book... Ask a book if it's intelligent than the book kept on that table.What would it say? well..it will rarely reply or the chances might be nill.But the one who has never read it ,will be  certainly having an opinion for it. But as we say never judge a book by it's cover. It's been 20 years now on this earth and one who has accompanied me throughout are these books(ofcourse!sparing initial 4 years ).There are few things related to books which still baffles me.But before that let's take a quick recap of "how these books at or most of the times dominated our li fe or became more important than maa and paa". Ahh!that tender age of 4.. Ok! While we were busy tearing the pages of a blank copy..we were told to write something on it,then write more ..more and more.Then there was a 1 book..2 book ..3 book and so on. That kho-kho playground.. Now! As we grew up into an eight year child..we were busy doing kh

Cracked walls give a mini- heartattack .It reminds me of cracked moments.I ,somehow , could not paste them . Last time when I knocked at the door ,there was a wall.It shouted at me  .I did not care and  became deaf for that moment. Then,stared continously at the wall.I observed  it keenly.There were patches and holes.They reminded of the scars on my body.I tried to cover those patches with my fingers .But  wind didn't stop.It kept on blowing through those tiny holes. It reminded of my own mistakes.I cannot ever get through them.But then,there were few holes on the wall.A streak of light travelled through those holes.It reminded of my timid nature.I have never tried  to shake  hands with anonymous.These 40 years of my life was always surrounded by known faces.I was mistaken.I will let the light pass through the patches and holes of my heart.I will live now!
