 The Universe in verse

There were parts of me that withered away as the loved ones drifted apart. 
Parts of me that were engulfed in conflict as the shore seemed far from sight. 
Parts of me that were tormented as I shaked hands with the devil in disguise. 
Parts of me that were too scared to even contact an eye. 

Parts of me that puzzled the mind as the pieces were not aligned. 
Parts of me that seeked shelter not in the four walls but the cosmic shrine. 
Parts of me had no choice but pull the cords to reinvent the tune. 
Parts of me became whole as they merged with the light. 

Parts of me realised they were never the parts they believed themselves to be. 
They were the little universes expressing themselves as tiny particles.
Parts of me were delighted, parts of me were united. 
As the parts became whole, so did the destiny.

THE POISON IN OUR BONES

  Disha Gahlot July 8, 2015  ·(Reposting from the older blog)  THE POISON IN OUR BONES By Disha Gahlot While the lecture on Toxicology was going on in our Forensic Medicine class,our professor asked us if there is anything in this world which we wouldn't call as poison? Meanwhile, some minds were pondering over the substances which would be totally harmless, to no avail. Nevertheless, he explained that if we drink water in excess, even that would be treated as a poison!! (Such profound words I swear!) Does it mean that our life hangs on the balancing tripod where excess or deficiency of something would be fatal? Shockingly yes!! As it goes, if you go to the extremes, even love kills! Well known, well searched and well gulped poisons like alcohol and drugs surely give a temporary high-out-of-the-world feeling but there are few less known poisons which the human race has embraced since ancient times (exaggeration is why spices were discovered!) Here it goes: 1) The HAT-wear...
What is it? By Disha Gahlot Ever heard about the unsung heroes in your life? Of course not, hence unsung! Not-so-similarly, a lot happens under the ground and it doesn't meet the eye even through your magnifying glasses! We have volcano, tornado, katrina and tsunami inside of us; it's just a matter of time when it chooses to be not-so-dormant at a certain point which manifests in the form of tragedies that we encounter during that phase. You see smiling faces, oh! you  see laughing faces, cheers!  you see a lot of faces, but do you see it?! One of those faces lost their mother last month, the second one broke up with his long-term girlfriend, the third one lost his job three days back, the fourth one got diagnosed with AIDS about two months back, the fifth one is just sitting in the corner wondering if he should live or commit suicide and the sixth one is getting married next month. Aha! Finally something to smile for, right? Well, he's getting married for the thi...

Are we women less than human?

                            Are we women less than human?   By DISHA GAHLOT A Part of me rebels, A part of me goes in denial mode, A part of me surrenders, while a part of me dies every time I witness a case of violence against women. Women, in different phases of the society, are being tortured for no reason. Are women personified as a pitiable figure? Is it the society's curse for women to be objectified, to be blamed, to be bullied, to be humiliated, to be molested, to be raped,.....to be.....,to be treated less than a human or is it the ignorance of the people of the society who sit and 'watch news in their free time' and fail to do anything about it? If just being aware about what's happening around the world makes you a wise person, then Congratulations,you deserve a noble prize for the surplus knowledge you have in your head about who raped who, when that murder case happened,where that wom...
