Thoughts - Sweet and Sour

By Sanjeev Kumar

The anthology is a compilation of thoughts, both sweet and sour that often come to us in the given social and an individual ambit. The present volume is the first in its series for I feel that the thoughts carry an universal appeal simply because many of us do mirror ourselves while going through them and thus conclude at one or the other stage of what we are is an exclusive outcome of our bitter and sweet experiences we have had in the given circumstances. I believe that the readers will enjoy going through them and also would find them bit relieved of the pain they must have felt for not ever been able to pen them down but had they been able to do it, they would have been more or less on these lines.

Preface

The book in hand would never have seen the light of the day had the long felt desire to pen down the thoughts that often came out of the association with the world around I had been a part of, were there.

The notions may serve a few lessons especially to those who never take things seriously and ultimately realize that it is too late now for the time cycle is simply irreversible. The thoughts are deliberately not arranged but appear as and when they came to me. Some may agree or disagree with them but let me be true enough for they had been my sole experiences. The idea to put the experiences both sweet and sour was long felt like the journey other's was never very smooth.

But to me, the important is that I could pen them down in the form before you and feel indebted to all had been in the association. With these words, I welcome you all to enter the world of the outlet of emotions in writing.

Love your enemy for they remain till the last.

One can only be devoted to One.

If heart has started bleeding, it should only serve as an 'eye opener' for already enough has been listened to it and therefore, it is time to move up towards your 'head' now.

Those who protect you for your evil deeds, in fact shield theirs.

'Distances' trigger, the moment a confidant concludes, that you are there not for compromise but to impel.

Undeserved position leave 'some',
