Daily Prompt: Breakdown

pad2015-s1.png (308×60)

Tell us a habit you’d like to break. Is there any way it can play a positive role in your life?

My problem in my life has always been “Procrastination” I could not give up this habit, did not matter how hard I tried. I always relied on  ‘tomorrow’, I will do it then, many tomorrows passed I either missed the deadline or I gave up myself.

Then came a time when I registered myself for an online course. I inquired if I’d be allowed to procrastinate. The reply was for a certain period after that I’d be dropped. This information woke me up. I made up my mind to do the tasks right away, to avoid being dropped.

I succeeded in getting my work done since 2011. I feel better I can get my work done at once and not leave it for the next day. 🙂

365 Writing prompts:Eat,drink and be merry

— for tomorrow we die. The world is ending tomorrow! Tell us about your last dinner–the food, your dining companions,the setting, the conversation.

I have no idea how others will react, if they know the world is ending tomorrow! Who will think about food it’s something I do not think I’ll think about. It’s a scary thought.

This is what I will do, I’ll get all my family members, discuss how we treated each other, talk about things  we did wrong, ask forgiveness and for once sit together and talk only about times we enjoyed being with each other.

If we gather together food would be something we’ll eat but it’s not going to be the main attraction, there’ll be no special setting,  we’ll eat simple foods and apologize to each other for all the things that went wrong because we were stubborn and did not care.

The most important thing to do would be to pray that we do not suffer,that death comes without pain!

NaBloPoMo Nov.6 song “Humko Humise chura lo”translation by ranu https://sabethville.wordpress.com

Humko humise churalo–Steal me from myself

dil mein kahin tum chhupalo— Hide me somewhere in your heart.

Hum akele kho na jaaye—- I might be lost if  alone.

door tumsay ho na jaaye — I might be far away from you.

Paas Aao galey sey lagalo—- Come closer and hug me.

Humko humise chura lo—- steal me from myself.

dil mein kahin tum chhupa lo— Hide me somewhere in your heart.

hum akele kho na jaaye— I might be lost if  alone.

door tumsey ho na jaaye—– I might be far away  from you.

paas Aao gale sey laga lo— come closer and hug me.

Yeh dil dhadka do—       Make my heart beat faster.

Zulfen bikhra doh—- let your hair loose.

Sharmake apna —- Bashfully

Aanchal lehra doh— wave the edge of your garment.

Hum zulfen toh bikhra dey, I can let my hair loose but

Din mein raat na ho jaaye— the day might turn into night.

Hum aanchal toh lehra dey—  I may wave the edge of my garment

par barsaat na ho jaaye—      but it might begin to rain.

honay do barsatein    —– let it rain

karni hain kuch batein—- I have to talk to you.

Humko humise chura lo—-steal me from myself.

dil mein kahin tum chhupa lo— hide me in your heart.

hum akele kho na jaaye—I might be lost if  alone.

Door tum sey ho na jaaye  — I might be far away from you.

Paas Aao galey say laga lo—- come closer and hug me.

Tumpe marte hain—     I will die without you.

hum mar jayenge—I will die

Yeh sab kehte hain—- they all say this.

Hum kar jayenge—-I will actually do it.

chutki bhar sindoor sey tum— with a pinch of the red powder,

ab yeh maang zara bhar doh—fill my parting hair.

kal kya ho kisney dekha— who knows what tomorrow brings.

sab kuch aaj abhi kar do— do everything right now.

paas aao gale sey laga lo— Come closer and hug me

hona ho sab raazi—- everyone agrees or not

dil raazi,rab raazi— my heart and God agrees.

Paas Aao gale sey laga lo—-come closer and hug me!

humko humise chura lo—- steal me from myself.

dil mein kahin tum chhupa lo— hide me somewhere in your heart.

hum akele kho na jaaye— I might be lost alone

door tumsey ho na jaaye—I might be far away from you.

Paas Aao gale sey laga lo—- come closer and hug me.

I was unable to find anyone to discuss what they are thinking about. What I was thinking was why is the water from the tap orange.The answer was they were cleaning the valve and it will take couple of hours to get clear water.Since I was supposed to take a shower and will have to wait.I called my friend in Montreal to find out what she was thinking about.

 

The following is the dialogue between Ranu,that’s me and Dilruba my friend:

 

Ranu : How are you?

 

 

Dilruba :  I am fine,I am thinking what will I cook for supper.

 

Ranu: Are you having guests?

 

Dilruba:  No my kids are coming for lunch tomorrow,I want to cook some food so they can take home.

 

Ranu: What do they like,that they don’t have time to cook?

 

Dilruba : They all love chicken,I am thinking of cooking some more dishes,it will help because they can eat the whole week without cooking.

 

Ranu: I might come to see you,hopefully in August,if you are free.

 

Dilruba: I always love to see you,come any time.

 

Ranu: I think I’ll book my flight for August,it was nice talking to you.Take care and goodbye.
