अनसुनी चीख

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 14:19:00 +0000

जननी का दर्जा दिया मुझे फिर बहन बना पुचकारा।
बेटी बन विदा किया मुझे पत्नी पर तनमन वारा॥

जाने क्यूँ समय पलट गया क्यूँ दृष्टि बदल गई नर की।
मुझको ही अपमानित करके अपनी ही समझ मलिन कर दी॥

आँचल के अन्दर कौन छुपा है निर्जीव मशीन जब बोली।
सबके मुख पर छा गई गर्मी सबकी हालत पतली हो ली॥

भिन्न-भिन्न औजारों से काटा, कुचला और रौंदा गया।
खिलने से पहले ही कली को तिल-तिल करके कौंदा गया॥

अनदेखे हाथों ने बरबस मांगी जीवन की भीख कभी।
बंद होंठों से निकली थी अनसुनी अन्दर की चीख कभी॥

दया न आई दानव को क्षत-विक्षत करके फ़ेंक दिया।
जीवन को जीवन से पहले धरती माँ के अधीन किया॥

बहन-बेटी के रिश्ते को बनने से पहले ही तोड़ दिया।
अजन्मी बेबस अबला को प्रभु के घर में ही छोड़ दिया॥

Make your importance

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 16:08:00 +0000

To let someone realize your importance,
Try to stay away so that they miss you.
But don't stay away for such a long time,
That they learn to live without you.

Never regret, Enjoy always!

We grow old filled with regrets...
For things not done,
For words not said,
For love not shown.
Life is too short,
Do what makes you happy today!

उम्मीद का आशियाँ...

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 13:35:00 +0000

उम्मीद का आशियाँ दिल में बना रखा है,
सपनो का संसार सजा रखा है।

जाने कब ये सपने हकीकत बनेंगे,
और हमारे दामन में खुशियों के फूल खिलेंगे।

दिल करता है आसमान छु लें,
धरती से बहुत ऊपर उड़ान भर लें।

मगर कैसे ये सब मुमकिन होगा,
सपने तो आख़िर सपने हैं,
उनमें रंग कौन भरेगा?

ये जानते हैं की मजबूर हैं,
फिर भी उम्मीद का आशियाँ दिल में बनाये हुए हैं,

जाने कब ये सपने हकीकत बन जायें,
और हमारे दामन में खुशियों के फूल खिल जायें।

Pinhole Glasses

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 18:45:00 +0000

I am a computer addict and I spend my whole day sitting in front of the computer. Recently, I was having some problem in my eyes. I was experiencing eye strain and headache. So, I consulted an eye surgeon and the doctor told me that I am suffering from Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). He suggested me Pinhole Glasses. Pinhole glasses are also known as stenopeic glasses. These are the eyeglasses which contain an opaque sheet of plastic with a series of pinhole sized perforations instead of the glasses. Each perforation allows only a narrow beam of light to pass through it and thus reduces the circle of confusion on the retina and increases the depth of field.

Pinhole eyeglasses help to improve vision clarity and resolution, increases object brightness, and reduces the eye stress. It can be used by anyone suffering from myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, astigmatism, computer vision syndrome or cataracts. Many companies have claimed that pinhole glasses can help to improve eyesight permanently. It can be used by anyone suffering from near or far-sightedness.

Pinhole eyeglasses are lightweight, durable, suits all situations (working on computer, studying, watching TV, and sewing), have attractive design, and are very affordable. I am going to buy one pair for myself tomorrow. You too must go and purchase one for yourself. And the greatest benefit is that you don’t even need a prescription to buy pinhole glasses. It is a perfect solution to eye complaints and an alternative to prescription eyeglasses.

Let’s hope I will be fine soon and will be able to spend more time working on a computer without facing any eye problems and will be able to entertain you much more through my blog.

You can get more information about it here: Pinhole eyeglasses.

Wish you a good and cheerful health!

तुम जो आज मिल जाओ

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 17:48:00 +0000

Hi Everyone!

Sorry for not posting anything since a long time. I was stuck up in my work all these days. But today I got inspired by some of my friends and I wrote something instantly. Don't know wheather you will like it or not, so wanna know your comments. Do post a comment - good or bad. :) Thanks!

तुम जो आज मिल जाओ,
तो ज़िन्दगी रोशन हो जाए,
मैं ख़ुद को भुला दूँ,
और तुम में ही समां जाओं
इस लम्हे से कह दो,
की यहीं थम जाए,
तुम मेरे हो जाओ,
मैं तुम्हारी हो जाओं
सदियों की दूरी अब,
मीलों के फासले,
सब मिट जायें,
सिर्फ़ मैं और तुम,
और एक नई ज़िन्दगी की शुरवात हो जाए
तुम जो आज मिल जाओ,
तो ज़िन्दगी रोशन हो जाए

Impossible says 'I M Possible'

Impossible doesn't mean that it is not possible,
It actually means that nobody has done it so far,
And we are born to break the limits.

Is this Modern Life!

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 15:35:00 +0000

Today we have bigger houses, but small families.
More degrees, less common sense.
Advanced medicines, but poor health.
Touched moon, but no contact with neighbours.
High income, yet less peace of mind.
We say it's MODERN LIFE.

Apologizing strengthens Relationship

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 12:09:00 +0000

Apologizing doesn't mean that you are wrong and the other person is right.
It only means that you value relationship much more than your ego.

Think it!

Chandigarh Blogger's Meet Review

noreply@blogger.com (Preeti) — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 14:29:00 +0000

Hi Guys!

So here I am with a quick review of the blogger’s meet for all those who couldn’t make it for the event. It was a very nice and learning experience to meet all those 11 people who are so passionate about their own fields and of course blogging. It really showed the interest youth is having in blogosphere. Here we discussed how each one of us started blogging and what all difficulties we have faced.

The initiator of this event, Mr. Gaurav, is the owner of http://gaufire.blogspot.com/. Firstly, I congratulate him for taking this step and bringing together, although in small number, but all of us, the bloggers. And now as we all came to know each other, we will definitely take these kinds of meetings ahead and will help in bringing more of the bloggers.

In future we will be organizing meetings on a large scale and will get it sponsored by Microsoft. Some of the top bloggers from India may be our guests so that they can share their experiences with us and prove to be a helping hand for the new bloggers. We are also planning to emphasize some of the current issues of society and for that we can have some shows or workshops for spreading awareness about blogging. So in the place as Chandigarh, which is going to be the technology center in coming years, the bloggers meet will be an added advantage for the people who want to know anything about blogging.

Mr. Shanker Bakshi who owns the blog http://www.shankerbakshi.com, is again a very multi dimensional guy with lots of experience. He knows every aspect of promoting a blog and making money through it. So, anyone who wants to learn how to make money from blog should visit his blog.

Mr. Rakesh who although is very new to this field had a great contribution. He came up with the Id-cards for all of us and helped in organizing the event.

Mr. Abhinav, a great guy with lots of energy and an inspiration for all. He was in his full spirits with his blog http://www.inspiritblog.com. He is really a very talented person.

Mr. Jasdeep has a blog on poetry where he publishes the punjabi poems of his friends. This guy had struggled a lot in his life but is very passionate about anything he does. I really liked your enthusiasm. Keep it up!

If you have any kind of issues regarding software, hardware, programming, designing, anything, Mr.Mohit Aneja can help you out. His blog http://www.mohitaneja.com gives solutions to your many problems. He had been the best solution provider on yahoo questions and answers. This guy is really fabulous and a true lover of Google :P and one most important topic which lasted for around an hour was…in contrast to Shanker, who believes in making money from blogging, Mohit do not believe in making money from blogs, especially from google adsense. He came up with his wife, Mrs. Reet Aneja, who too is really interested in blogging and helps Mohit in all aspects.

Mr. Sameer through his blog http://threecheersindia.com/blog/ wants to showcase the developments and problems faced by India since Independence. He, in Stepping Stones School (Chandigarh), had organized a workshop to teach students about blogging and the advantages one can gain from it.

Mr. Abhishek who is into corporate blogging alongwith Sameer had started their own company. I wish them All the Best for it.

Mr. Saurabh, who is a PHP developer owns the blog http://teenmoolah.blogspot.com/.

Miss. Sukhbir Kaur, shared her experiences about blogging and had a good learning experience.

And lastly myself, Preeti, owner of blog http://entertainment-n-humour.blogspot.com/ had learnt a lot from this meeting. I am thankful to all of you with whom I got in contact with and will remain in contact in future too.

So, all those who had not attended Bloggers Meet this time, do get in touch with me anytime to know about our future events. In a month or 2 we will be having our next meet. We will soon launch a website for Chandigarh bloggers where you can get to know about the upcoming events and reviews of meetings.

We had got our media coverage from Hindustan (the hindi newspaper by Hindustan times), you can read an article in it within a day or 2.

Will post some snaps too as soon as I will get them.

Thanks to all of you and all the best for your future. See you all in the next meet.

Keep in touch.

Chao!
