There is nothing as weak as water, but when it attack and is persistent, nothing can withstand it.
Death reuires us to give up living, only real sign of life is growth. And growth requires pain.Some peole go to such lengths to avoid pain that thy give up on life. they bury their hearts or they drug ordrink themselves numb until they dont feel anymore. The irony is in the end their escape becomes more painful than what they are avoiding.
"We understand our lives backward but live them forward." Kierkegaard was right.
Everything in this world passes. Everything. You cant hold on to a single thing.
I do not know what lies beyong horizon, only the road I walk was meant for me. It is enough.
We have greater poer and abilities than we possibly imagined and never would have found as long as we relied on something.
We can spend our days bemoaning our losses or we can grow from them. Ultimately the choice is ours. We can be victims of circumstance or masters of our own fate, but make no mistake we cannot be both

Easy Baby...easy
The problem I have is I take my work too seriously and I get hurt very easily when someone pin points on that. I dont knw why I have this attitude problem, when it comes to work, may be somewhere i m insecure about the kind of work I do, I am pretty sure I put in to my tasks whatever is required, still if I fail to get desired result then it really hurts my ego.
I cannot make excuses for things, I know where I am wrong(in most of the cases) but then why do i get upset. Let it be, let it go, I put all my efforts, I know it should shape good, but if it doesnt and people come and accuse me then I should be least bothered about it. I should just move on with focusson my mind, I know I was honest in my efforts, I know how well I tried and if it did turn up well then thats not the end, it is the journey that is more beautiful. I still remember when I was preparing for my competitive exams, in a book I read somthing, 'People dont ask about labor pain, they just want to see the child' I know who cares about it, they just evaluate you with the child you deliver, but what about those, who went through same labor pain or may be more than that but fail to deliver one. What is the fault they had, can u blame them, who is to blame, no one is to blame, it just about circumstance, one should always be happy that one went put its honest effort to achieve something, just focussing on that and nowhere else, and if things dint turn out that way, then there is nothing to be worried about, this is life, you never know what turns up next. And these things will hardly matter in long run, everything evaporates soon. This will also evaporate, happiness, sadness, humilation everything evaporates. Nothing is there for ever.
So sweetheart, just chill relax and be confident......if it works well then its good, if it doesnt, you learnt a lot........

Whaatttttt an ideaaa
Have you ever thought why these parks came into existence….whose idea it would be to have parks in the cities and towns…
Though these days parks are into discussion for all wrong reasons....I hear people complaining about couples in park…I could hear people saying these young generation have no shame and respect….the shameless way they are found in park…. Logon ko sharam nahee atti …arre park mein bacchee bhi khelneee aatein …but yeh besharm log….grrrr…
Couples says ….this is democracy and everyone has their own way of enjoying things until and unless it doesn’t harm any third person, are we not sensible enough to define our own limits…. …… …let us enjoy being together …one should mind one own business…grrrrr….
Problem what could be the solution, let me put on my thinking cap to solve this problem
I have seen in parks we have a separate kid section..where there different kind of rides, that kids can enjoy but then they have age limit for riding on those rides….Similarly based on the same concept we can have one section dedicated to only couples…..where there would be no stag entry …..(Like the way we have in Disc …) …cool
So this division of parks into different section will make everyone happy (for eg Laal baag West Gate is for families, Laal baagh East Gate is for Couples)… as no complaints from people, and also couples are not worried about that they are being…gazed…Also one more great idea we can have parks with certificates, like U, U/A, A the way we have certificate in movies….that would be great..(for Sanky Tank with U certificate, Laal Baagh with U/A)Last but not least I think we should also a separate section for people like me …who just go to parks to gaze the sky, or to talk to trees or to hear chirping birds…..
And now I m telling myself …”Whhaattt an idea ji……”

Luck By Chance
Distance between my office, and home is around 28Km and covering 28 km in Bangalore traffic takes more than one and half hour...So while commuting I am listen to Radio,
Then for 1 hour in evening I workout in Gym where I am listening to Radio again, and the last one hour before(rather while ) sleeping I am hooked to Radio......so total hours spent listening to Radio is
3(Home to office and office to home) + 1 (workout) +1(before sleeping) = 5 hours...
I listen to radio for 5 hours in a day....and that too all five hours dedicated to one and only one channel..Radio One, as this is the only channel in Bangalore which plays only Hindi music (and English songs late in the night from 12 AM - 1 AM)..So I don’t have much (rather I would say Any) choice when it comes to listening to Radio channel in Bangalore.
Radio One has so many contest running. Every 30 minutes they have some or the other contest where listener either calls them or sends them a SMS with the answer
And I too participate in these contests either by calling or sending sms. But whenever I tried calling to the number..either no one picked up the call or number was engaged....So I always send sms with answer. and to my surprise I never get any response for answer which is always correct (As i have vast knowledge on Hindi Movies and Happening of Bollywood....And I read a lot of bollywood news...)
I really think I am very unlucky...because neither my name is ever announced as a Winner, nor I get a call from any RJ.. poor me...
And later i decided why to waste money in sending sms to relentless radio one..
Many times, I could crack the toughest question (though they rarely ask real tuff question) and I would tempt to SMS them...but then I would hold myself back...because if I sms then, I ll HOPE to be a winner and this HOPE is followed by disappointment.....ahhaa so now i simply listen to radio...without participating in any of their contest.....
and then One Saturday afternoon, when i was relaxing...I got a call from unknown number, I thought another spam call from some bank for credit card, insurance...reluctantly i picked it and to my surprise a call from Radio ONE.....RJ Rashmi called me up ....My My ...and then she asked me whether i m interested to join one Contest where she ll ask me singer's name.....cool man and for that she will call me after 20 minute :)
On same day after 1 hour i had an appointment with my Doctor for my RCT...and getting an doctor's appointment is very difficult these days...I waited for the call eagerly 20 minutes turn into 1 hour ...it was time for me to leave as i had doctor's appointment....and as i was about to leave...I got a call from Rashmi...she gave me three Clues...It went something like this
She: Birth Date of the singer is on 30Sept 1972?
Me:No i cannot make out
SHE:His first Album was Q-Funk?
Me: Is it Neeraj Sreedhar...Wrong Answer
She: Listen to this music Clip ? "Musuu musu haathi duoo mai lei"..
Me: (if felt BINGOOOOOOOO) Answer is Shan ....
So I won the Contest and won myself a Goodie Bag ......yippee ....
She said someone from Radio One will call me and will let me know how to collect it.......So I am waiting for that call to collect my GOOODIE BAGGGGG :)
So moral of the story .Things (not Love) happen when you expect least. Or may be its just Luck by Chance

Believable DevD
movie DevD....I liked the movie...atleast it was real, not flashy and larger than life kinds of other bollywood movie.
I have not seen Dilip Kumar's Devdas, but yes shahrukh Devdas I dint like at all...I found it very artifical and very unreal.It was some kind of irrevlant drama for me and after that movie,i thought its so fake but if it happens in real then what would be presentation which could atleast look somewhat real to us, some characters which we feel are real and do exist.And so here is that DevD for that matter.
I like fiction, but a fiction which i could believe in,not something that I can not believe at all and while watching it all the time i have a feeling like its all fake and this is failure of fiction
In case of DevD i could beleive each and every scene,nothing seems to unreal. Moreover the kind of person DEV is I have seen many ppl like him....on road of destruction ...cos they dont even know what they want...just a confusion about something(something could be love, work, dreams, passions, life, moto anything)...in this case it was Love/relationship....so somewhere i could relate to Dev.
There were some scenes which i really like...were:
When Dev's Dad, tells him, that he wanted Paro to be his daughter in law, but then Dev have spoiled his taste in London, neither he has taste in Drink he drink Vodka, instead of whiskey, nor he has taste in women, "acchi khaasi ladkiya chod kar kahan Bamboo k peeche bhaagtey hai "....how true these days guys run after bamboo kinds of girls :D
Scene 2: When Paro meets Dev in his hotel room, it was such an amazing scene. This reminded of Hum Dil de chuke Sanam, the end Scene when Salman khan huggs Aish, and says, 'Tum meri nandani nahee hu' the only difference is, here the scene was so well that it didnt need any dialogue (scene itself shows that). Though Paro had feelings for DEV, yet she was not the old Paro.
The end of the movie was perfect, the way i want it. :)

Changes in Friends after their Marriage or Engagemnet
At present most of my friends are either married or engaged. Rather it would be better if I say all of my friends have found their soulmates except me... (may be thats the reason I am writing this)
Now what I am experiencing is I am left out... I still remember some years back we all decided to remain single all our life and will never get into relationship and will enjoy life in our own terms...but I think except me no one followed it......
So now what i have observed these days is a FRIEND MARRIED is equal to a FRIEND LOST. Seriously married friends are living in world of their own.....they have no time for anyone. I many times feel do they even remember they had Friend.....anyways what can i say...but then one thing i have observed is when their Mother INLAWS comes and stays with them, or anything they need to discuss related to their IN LAWS they ll just remember you...because though I am not married but when it comes to suggestion I am the person to consult to.
Now Feel like let married friends live in their own world.....let us leave them alone, now comes turn of my engaged friends...These people keep in touch with you after their engagement but then they have most boring stuff to talk....because mostly all the time either they are talking about shopping or about their would be......
Shopping really fed up with it....surprised being a girl how can I am tired and bored of shopping ...but really I am... This was the fifth time when I am giving company to my friend for her wedding shopping .........Really its very boring(and frustrating also) when you are shopping not for yourself but for someone else and that too for not your wedding but for his/her wedding and above that its for fifth time ....GOD now I am Wedding shopping expert...anyone need any kind of advice regarding shopping let me know......
Now these engaged friends...not only bores you from their shopping but also from their stories...
Yes Stories of their courtship period...believe me its not at all intresting to listen..infact listening to mother in law woes by ur married friends are more intresting than to listening to engaged friend's would be saga.....they will describe all qualities of their would be...would praise him or her like anything and will accept you also to praise him, will tell u joke he cracked last night and will expect you to laugh at his jokes.....they really eat your brain by describing each and every little thing they notice about their partner...believe me thats real pain in ass.....when you are still single.....

Finally I am here
Finally today I decided to write something, so let me first share why I decided to go for blogging.
I am good observer and I am a person who is continoulsy chatting with oneself. I really love to discuss anything and everything that I observe.
But these days I believe friends dont have much time to discuss things, busy with daily chores of life and its quite possible that when I have time to discuss they are busy with their own chores.
So its a good way to post your blog and people can read it at their own ease. As most of the times I am talking to myself about things happening around me, and then I will feel like Ally Macbeal.
I observe things and will discuss about them within myself...its sounds funny but believe me its a real fun to do...
So as I have started blogging so will come up with my observation and experiences in day to day life.....Its a good way to express oneself isnt it...without even being irritated whether anyone is listening to you or not....
