Slay the Kingslayer.

Howling ghost they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a queen and I'm a lion-heart.
And in the sea that's painted black,
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a queen and I'm a lion-heart.
And as the world comes to an end 
I'll be here to hold your hand
'Cause you're my queen and I'm your lion-heart.

I am no lion-heart. But this defeat, which is the most terrible thing that has happened to me, will make me strong. Now I know why not to trust blindly, why not to take decisions with your heart and why not to expect great things from people just because you can do those things for them. Learned men say that the heart has nothing to do with the emotions and it is all up there in your head. But when you get that sinking feeling from where you think only about giving yourself away, you feel the pain in the center of your body. It is called heart break. Probably there is where the soul is. 
Someone told me that failures teach you the most important lessons in your life. Hope that is true.
All great things require sacrifice. No sacrifice is bigger than love. You are bound to succeed.  I'll be back.

The born night

The magic happened at 9 PM on a Tuesday in June'25. There was waiting, then cries and shivering. But the process had started around 8.30 in the morning. The water broke as she sat in the living room. Sakshi had wondered how she would know whether it was a water break or a false alarm. But coming out of the loo, she could confidently say that her water was broken. Almost everything was packed, yet a few items were to be put in. By 9.30 AM, we were at the hospital.  Yes indeed, the water had broken. All forms have been filled out and now a waiting period. Of what? Pain!! Who wants pain, yet at that time, pain was the only thing Sakshi desired. But the baby had other plans; she slept peacefully in the womb. While wearing her surgical gloves, Dr Rituparna Bera Sarkar asked Sakshi which gender she favoured. She said, slightly inclined towards a girl, the doctor passed a smile. Five minutes later, an assistant chirped, Doctor has fulfilled your wish. Siya touched her mother and started s...

The Night Blue Sky

And I look and look but find nothing, It's like staring into a clear blue sky, You see the vast indefinite space, Wonder what's behind that, Wonder if it is just a veil hiding some secrets behind, You wait and wait for the shield to lift, But it's just a clear blue sky. But you keep looking up above the world so high , Hold her hands and try to fly, The grass is green below, and slippers by the side, Feel the breeze and the Chords hit the tide, Lie till the sun sets down, and the stars occupy, It's not just a clear blue sky. -SJ

Moving towards De-Globalization?

Even the Leave campaign supporters woke up to the shock that they had won. Brexit was finally here. It was so crude that the National Democratic Party of Britain had to admit the fact, within hours, that the 350m Pound it had promised to bring back into the National Health System was a lie. Another point they admitted was that migration would not be stopped. The remain campaign also had their fair share of lies. But sadly, they did not get a chance to admit them. But everyone loves a big fat lie. It is so juicy and unmistakably truthless that you have to believe the sheer (dis)honesty it is mentioned with. The Brexit campaign was a social experiment of lying and an opportunity to create phantom stories, to be tested in this 24x7 technology and media world. The result? No matter how much free information you have, nobody questions a lie if told with utter confidence. Left and the Right can be ideologically divided, but in this campaign they came together, albeit with different rea...
