The Ripples

                                       Brown and beautiful    Does your daughter have fair complexion?? This is what every Indian parents ask before asking someone daughter hand for marraige. If any girl have fair complexion people appreciate her beauty and raise a common question to her, Which cream or beauty products do you apply to look fair? These are the questions with which every Indian girl is familiar with. For sometime we get speechless as what to reply or how to react? We get confused as was is this a compliment or not?

Being a girl this word has a differen...

Hope you felt the thoughts that went inside me, after listening to you. Those thoughts which definitely touched my heart but broke it. Those thoughts which were meant to make me feel comfortable after listening to your voice, suddenly asked me, "Is this what you longing for?" Should I answer.

Not hoping you to understand but yes loosing hopes. These thoughts hitting her as stones, she tried hard to sleep. An finally she succeeded in something! Getting herself a sleep and a break from the thoughts.

She looked like a piece of art in the sun with her auburn hair swinging with the cool breeze. There was no worry in the world with him on her side. He was a little taller than her and had just crossed his teen; she was still young and innocent. They sat by the lake often and he read her stories, every day a new one. He was tall and handsome like the way a young man is supposed to be. He had big ambitions and a high will to achieve them all. “She was a beautiful lady in her early twenties”, he says and begins to narrate a new tale. “She had a family with a loving father, a beautiful mother and a handsome elder brother.

Her only dream was to get married to her Prince Charming and live happily ever after. Every u...
