White दर्द ने सिखाया खुद से मिलना, राहों में खो जाने से पहले, ख़ुद को जानना ज़रूरी है, तब जाकर कोई सही रास्ता लगे। हर ख्वाब का पीछा करते हुए, सपनों में खो जाते हैं हम, लेकिन जब वो टूटते हैं, तब महसूस होता है, हम कहाँ थे, कहाँ हम। अक्सर दूसरों की नज़र से ही जीते हैं हम, पर सच्ची पहचान तो अंदर से आती है। जो खुद को समझे, वही खुद को पा सकता है, बाकी सब तो बस एक छलावा होता है। अब मेरी आँखों में बस एक सवाल है, क्या मैं सचमुच खुद से प्यार करता हूँ? जब तक ये सवाल हल नहीं होगा, ख़ुद के ही हाल में, ख़ुद से जूझता रहूँगा। ©Ajita Bansal #Sad_Status poem of the day

White वो रास्ते भी क्या रास्ते थे, जो हमें मंज़िल तक ले जाते थे। कभी धूप में, कभी छाँव में, हम चलते रहे, सफ़र के साथ। हर मोड़ पर, हर इक ठहराव में, मिले हमसे कुछ किस्से नए। कभी हँसाए, कभी रुलाए, वो रास्ते भी हमें सिखाते गए। कभी ठोकरें खाईं, कभी गिरकर उठे, मंज़िल की ओर बढ़ते गए। वो रास्ते हमें समझाते रहे, कि संघर्ष ही है असली जीत का रास्ता। ©Ajita Bansal #Thinking poem of the day

White "A Life story of Bahadur Shah Zafar" Bahadur Shah Zafar was the last Mughal Emperor of India, born on October 24, 1775. He was the son of Akbar Shah II and succeeded his father as the ruler of the Mughal Empire in 1837. His reign, however, was largely symbolic with minimal real power, as the British East India Company had effectively taken control of most of India by then. Zafar's rule is most notable for his role in the Indian Rebellion of 1857, also known as the Sepoy Mutiny. During the uprising, he was declared the figurehead leader of the revolt against British rule. The rebellion was a significant, though ultimately unsuccessful, attempt to resist British dominance. Zafar's involvement in the uprising led to the British recapturing Delhi and reasserting control over the region. Following the suppression of the rebellion, Bahadur Shah Zafar was captured, tried, and convicted of treason by the British authorities. On October 7, 1858, he was deposed, and the Mughal Empire was officially abolished. Zafar was exiled to Rangoon (present-day Yangon) in Burma (present-day Myanmar), where he lived in relative obscurity and poverty until his death on November 7, 1862. Despite his fall from power, Zafar is remembered for his poetry and literary contributions. He wrote in Urdu and Persian, and his works reflect the rich cultural heritage of the Mughal court. His legacy remains a poignant reminder of the end of the Mughal Empire and the broader context of colonialism in India. ©Sanjoy Khuman #A life story of Bahadur Shah Zafar
