The Broken Clay :( :(

The Broken Clay... :( :(

This broken Clay gave me the moment to think our life on different perception. We fall in Love with our closed one, We care them and Sometime we wish them to be in our life for rest of the moment. But as time and tide waits for no one, a wrong time can make us stumble and can bifurcate our dreams, love, emotions and relation. Yes, a bad time and everything can be in pieces, like that broken clay.

Let me tell you more about this broken clay first

Two weeks back as one of the winner in Mouthshut weekend contest, Mouthshut.com had send me one t-shirt and coffee mug. It was a beautiful white color mug packed in a very careful manner. At a first glance itself, I felt in Love with this Cup.

Since I returned back from home this vacation in July End, I was thinking to buy a Coffee Mug, but I was always lazy to go to market. So in other way, getting this Cup fulfilled one of my need, One more reason to fall in Love.

Most of my hostel friends know I write on Mouthshut.com as @mouthshut celebrity (It feels as if I am in cloud nine when I say this to them, you know!) and few of them have signed up also. When my friends asked me about the cup I had said them, " Mouthshut gifted me". I can see envy on them for me.

But a week back, a small mistake and that cup happened to fell down to break into 5 pieces. The sound that was produced at that moment is still fresh in my mind. It left me shattered without knowing what to do next?

Initially I threw them in a dustbin, but Later I changed my mind. I collected them, washed it and kept it safely in one box hoping I will try to fix it someday again. This was a gift to me by Mouthshut and I wanted to keep it till longer time, At least for few years....

So few days back, I fixed it up with a feviquick. To keep it safe, I also used cello tape. (You can see it in picture). I restored it, just to notice it had one small ho-le at the bottom of the cup. I conclude, I won’t be able to drink coffee through this mug ever again.



This broken Clay gave me the moment to think our life on different perception. We fall in Love with our closed one, We care them and Sometime we wish them to be in our life for rest of the moment. But as time and tide waits for no one, a wrong time can make us stumble and can bifurcate our dreams, love, emotions and relation. Yes, a bad time and everything can be in pieces, like that broken clay.

Somebody have faced this situation doesn’t mean they had had chosen wrong people in their life. It can also happen because of any of wrong decision. Sometime even two very good people, two best friends fail in their relationship, Sometime two beautiful heart who had understood emotions of world fail to understand each other while sometime person who hated most in some bygone days form a perfect example of true relations. Amazing, but still true.

A friend cum sister in my University said me, ’Relation is not about how well you understand the world, It is about how you understand the person’. I then give a deep thought to it, True, It never matters how well we are linked with world, It doesn’t matter how many people Love us beyond this compartment of relationship.( Had it been so, We wouldn’t have heard the break up and new marriages of celebrity and stars who are well-acclaimed by world. ) So It all mattered is how well we can understand that single person with whom we have taken (or will be taking) a covenant to stay for life. It is more or less about the passion and understanding, this is how love Revolves around us and will be revolving even after our departure.

The Bible states ’Marriage’ as one of those 3 acts (Other two are Baptism and Holy Communion) which can’t be abandon once we take it. Still, We see many break up, divorces re-marriage and again conflicts in relationship. In this act, Doesn’t our heart break? Will all person be able to come across this nightmare?

People who are courageous enough are able to bring life back to track sooner or later, for few they chose to stay around this miserable phase for longer time, while some have even ended their life at particular time itself. Whatever be the case, it is a reality, once broken heart can never be restored in its earlier position. Just like that broken clay, Our heart will keep remembering this bad-mark, may be with more of careful steps in coming days to live our life.

If the sound of broken clay is so dread, I wonder how would be the sound; had our heart produced when broken. And how big it would be when we can see numerous relationship being broken around the world in mini-seconds. Thanks God, they are muted!!

I brought another coffee mug after the day it got broken, because Life has to move on and I have always kept saying, ’Life is not only about single promise, Life is not only about a little smile...."

Keep Smiling and Enjoy the bond of covenant with your soul-mate, not with an obligation but with a passion, Love and Care.

~Love and Regards~
