Kolkata : City Of Joy

I have lived my life in the heart of a city, a place were I have been since my birth this place has many memories of my life, and I cherish some of them. Calcutta is the city of Joy a place where Joy never seems to end the heartless realities of human life are trapped within the walls of Joy.

Hello everyone I believe since you have spent some precious time of your lives in reading my blog I think you should perhaps know my name by now, But even if you dont its fine. I am not going to bore you about myself I think I am a boring individual. Instead I will get back to wat this posting is all about.

I have lost my parents in this city when I was very young being brought by my uncle and aunty (who are almost like my parent) I have been sheltered from the realities which a orphan usually faces in a city like Calcutta. I have observed this city from behind the bars of my window and as the rain has swept clean the dirty streets water has often logged in populated places and caused a havok in my otherwise normal life. I remember once my house was flooded and as we all sat on the bed hoping to avoid the water the Heartless Fluid had risen to the levels of our abdomen and drenching me and the bed left me sick for almost a month.


Calcutta is a beautiful city, at night the city reveals its many forms, places like Sonagachi light up with the faces, and bodies that indulge in the oldest profession in the world, While places like Park Street lights up with young women and men already to party about 5 to 6 hours of there daily (practically not so useful) lives, the Winds of the sky change there course as more of this place is revealed deep inside a corner of a street a little cries of hunger, the tears are genuine you can see that its true but you do nothing but sympathize.

"Life goes on as it never ends, eyes of stone observe trends they never say, forever gaze" this is a line from one of my favourite songs by the Backstreet Boys. I have always liked there music.

Kolkata the name has changed, but you know its still the same city of Joy.
