It was “No” One’s Mistake

Life is full of love, likes and expectations as nicely as it is full of clashes, conflicts and mistakes. We fall into all these, even if we know it is an illusion and these are meant to let go. Especially in relationships, we ride on a plane of uncontrollable emotions which take us from extreme of joy to extreme of sorrow. Those who make up easily and intentionally, keep on the ride. While those who fail to manage, stay back until they start another ride of the same kind. But what if we meet the companions of an old ride after we have moved on to new paths.


Sometimes two close friends have serious clashes and call an end to their intimacy, understanding and affection. I often see people giving stranger looks to each other after they meet each other despite of the fact that they have shared unforgettable pleasure and pains together just sometime back their lives. Does this mean they have moved on? No. This means they still remember all that which is why they are not able to give each other a perfectly stranger’s treatment.

If you break up, do it carefully. It is important to forgive, if certainly not possible to completely forget, before you move on. And the best way to forgive each other is to believe that ‘it was no one’s mistake’.

There is enough possibility that both of you are right at your own points. This is just that you both have different points of view, you should not call the other person wrong.
Even strangers have a defined relation which is of being stranger to each other. So why should we not have a pure heart towards our companions with whom we have broken-up some time back. You may be right at your point and the other person’s view might be absolutely ignorable, but proving the other person’s fault would certainly not heal any of you. On the other hand, if you let go and make up again there is nothing more cheery for both of you.  

So, next time your ego asks you how to let go, how to forgive or how to make up again, tell her that it was probably no one’s mistake.

  1. hatred or anger is a form of love. If one truly doesn't care, then they would be indifferent. That's why its imp to understand that if you are upset, it's because you still care at some level. And if you care, you should care enough to forgive and forget. :)

    1. Its human tendency to love and care about everyone we live with even if it is a pet of ours. Letting go means you are erasing the mistakes of past from your picture of life even if those were jotted by someone else. afterall life needs to be beautiful.. only beautiful.

    1. I guess you should give a more heartfilled effort to this in situations when you think its hardly possible. The point is, you move on with no unnecessary burden of past failures, no matter whether you sort out things and settle back or not.

    1. It might have been preached to you several times before also but trust me if you start doing this, you would also start telling others the same.

  6. I always have believed that people dont change, situations and environments do. This is the reason why people drift apart. One should try and remember the happy times and bear no hatred or ill will.

  7. Harbouring ill feelings are only going to hurt us. Forgiving and moving on is definitely the better option, though harder.

    1. carrying on the burden of complaints, arguments and sorrows is also difficult. Letting go is the option where hardwork really pays.

  8. I agree..its important to let go SHipra but its easier said than done. Sometimes its just not ego but the broken trust that comes in between. But, yes if we let go it makes us happy and peaceful.

    1. I have crafted this thought dear. The thing that needs to be done is our own detoxification. It is only done with forgetting and forgiving.

My 'Invisible' Accomplishments #DecadeHop #RRxMM

As we entered 2020, through this post I am trying to contemplate the coolest, most daring, and most significant feats of my life during the last decade. Now the more I regress my memory, the more I feel there are two types of achievements or accomplishments that I can ponder upon; Visible and Invisible. Visible ones are those that I can count on my finger like a parrot and others can nod also. I got specs on, married to a not-so-romantic man, produced a baby, started writing and added good 17 kgs in my body volume (I was 50 in 2011). However, there are many invisible accomplishments too that either I know silently or very few can assert. From 2011 to 2019, Who am I now From a coy soul to now an outspoken woman, the trek was not easy. I achieved it. From being a no-makeup girl to now a lipstick swatches observer, the transition was tough. But it happened. And from being a sweet hater to now a sweet lover, the change was mysterious yet occurred. And now I can die for Gulab Jamuns....

Cheap vs.Expensive Bottled Water-The Cost of What is Free & Essential

If I ask you when you last bought packaged drinking water last, I am sure you would not count it from long ago. Obviously, because gone are the days when we used to count water as a free goodie from nature for all of us. We now buy this essential for life thing in various amount as per our needs.  Be it a shopping mall or an amusement park, hospital or restaurant, travel time or even at home we pay for our drinking water. During Durgapuja festival I had to buy drinking water from many places which made me notice how the price of the same drinking water changes from one shop to another. Buying a one-liter bottle of a reliable brand from a general store cost me Rs. 20, while the same brand bottle of an equal amount of water filled inside a pizza hut store cost me RS. 50 on the same day. The last bottle that I had bought was left in the car parked outside and I felt thirsty again while waiting for my ordered pizza. This made me ask for water at the cash counter where the person o...

Vibhu and Web Series - Gullak is a cheering story

After watching Panchayat , I was again on a hunt for another web series that Vibhu (my 7-year-old boy) can also enjoy. Luckily I found one. It was again a neat and uncomplicated one. No abusive language, no inappropriate talks, and full of comedy, it was really fun to watch " Gullak " with Vibhu. Set in a small town in North India, this web series is about a middle-class Mishra family and their day-to-day struggles. Being a 90s kid, I have seen the craze for clay piggy banks, typically called Gullak. Be it any fair or festival, buying a clay piggy bank was a custom in families of North India (UP) during the early 90s. The Series is named Gullak as in the show, a clay piggy bank, is the narrator of the plot. The Mishra family includes a giving husband, Santosh Mishra; a sarcastically speaking wife, Shanti Mishra; and their two sons. Then there are nagging neighbors, demanding relatives, everyday life struggles, and lots of humor with all. The performance by everyone in the ca...
