Andhere ki parchaiyaan

An Urdu book titled "Dard ka ehsaas" is lying in front of me on my table, ideally for the last couple of hours, I have tried several times to hold that and atleast go through the preface but of no use..not because the book is in Urdu language nor because I am having no time to go through it, but because of its cover page.
"Dard ka ehsaas", is a thought which require indepth feelings and emotions. The cover page is having a tree made on it with almost no leaves, but the tree is still standing tall and the sun made by the artist is looking caught up in pain of doom. Every stem of leaf-less tree is boldly narrating its strenght that it will remain intact and will continue blocking the rays of sun, no matter how deep and dark the shadow may be. No matter the trunk get burns and no matter it get peeled off by those uncanny rays.

I have also felt the same many times. I believe that the real fun of life lies in testing your potential. I like head on collision with life. Greater the challenge, greater the fun. This also leads to self knowledge or if I add weight to my sentence and put it in a word I would say WISDOM. I believe “Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength. I am a radio jockey and if I get an opportunity to take the interview of this little tree I would love to ask her how dose she feel after winning the battles and wars of life? Trust me the answer would be mesmerizing. she would not even know what battles are we talking about.
