sweet 2!!!

forgot to add.... he is so nice that he even came out with me when he was not well... though this made me go mad at him but then looking at the reason why he did it... I couldn't help but liking him more.. he is a real darling... my buddy :)

Sweet!!! :)

very rarely in life we get a chance to meet someone so nice that their presence itself uplifts our mood and makes us feel better... I am glad i ve come across such a person too..

I wait for the time in day when i get to see him and speak to him a little. the small - small things we do matters so much to me these days... the small arguments we have on... I love those arguments.. i like it when we tease each other for tiny things...

sometimes his answers amaze me... his words make me smile, laugh, giggle,get surprised, and at times embarrass too... but i enjoy each flavor of this relationship... so glad to have another sweet friend around... someone who genuinely cares about me :) someone who reminds me if i am late for lunch... drops me home when i am late... helps me with my doubts, gets me tea bags and soups when i am not well.. asks me if he can get a juice for me when i am busy at work... guides me when i am wrong... warns me when i am nearing a trouble.... lets me throw tantrums... reminds me that i am young girl and life is to enjoy... and allows the kid inside me to enjoy every moment i sped with him :)

and above all this... he is someone who has place for me in his prayers toooooo. Never thought someone will do this also for me... thank you god for making me come across such an amazing person...


I just hope this is not a dream and it doesn't break away... or something like my past experience which will shatter me into pieces again... but watever it is.... it is your wish god....just yours...

i still remember when he told me that he prays for me at times... for a moment i had to hold on to my tears so that he desnt not get embarasseessed. but really never expected him to be like this...

he is not just good to me but others too... dear GOD! please bless him with happiness, prosperity and good health always :)

Intuitions!!! Are they right always???

Do you have intuitions about things often?? or some times called as the sixth sense, does it work for you??
Well, it has always worked for me... good or bad my intuitions have always helped me... ok.. if not always atleast most of the times it has helped me...

with time, these intuitions come to my mind more often... its been many weeks now.. and i ve a strange feeling... I really dont know what it is or what is that feeling trying to hint towards... but its making me very uneasy and day by day i am going more uncomfortable ..... or to use the right word... i am scared...

ya thats wat it is... i am scared... of wat ??? I really dont know... my intuitions indicate that in some time something wrong is gonna happen with me... something which is not good at all... something which is gonna be very big... something which is going to change my life totally... and the bottom line is... Its not gonna be good... this feeling has been troubling me from many weeks now... and because of it i am imagining all wrong things .....

i am not finding a way to come out of it... in a way i am preparing my for the worst... but then, i really dont know what wrong is going to happen... I feel like i am going to lose something or someone very important to me... and i dont know why but i ve been feeling like this a lot these days...

Am I being very concerned about something/someone that this feeling is troubling me so much.. I really dont know... sometimes i just feel like crying... for what???? I don't know :( but i am very upset from two days..

Off course i am not showing it off to others... i am smiling and giggling and being all happy before others but something is breaking inside.. and its hurting big time... my heart is aching.... I know it sounds like too melodramatic but its true...

i am not able to explain it well.. i agree there are quite a many things about which i am worried but then, i am not able to figure out as to which of it (or something else) is troubling me so much that i am feeling so uneasy so scared.. so depressed....
i am not liking to be like this but i am very upset... everynight before i go to bed i dont feel the happiness from inside... instead i feel so tired of the fake smile i ve been spreading around... its not that i don't like the company of others or i don't love them... but then something is stopping me from being myself..

i am too worried inside... i am too concerned... i am being too sensitive day by day... and i know its not doing any good to me...

GOD!!!!! do you mind giving me a little strength in overcoming this... i don't wanna be like this .... I don't understand why am i feeling so miserable... i shouldn't be miserable about anything... i have loving family, good job, caring frnds then why should i feel bad... pls get me out of this... this feeling is killing me inside... pls...

Why??

Why me??? why is it happening all over again and again...

I understand each one of us have a basic nature... and I know that I have a very outgoing nature but then I sometimes feel that I create trouble for myself be being the way I am. I mean what is the need for me to be sweet and nice to all in this bad world :( I every time accept each person I come across with an open heart and then get hurt... No, I am not blaming others here...

I am just complaining about myself... I know there is a real difference in the way others look at relationships (friendships) and the way I do... I know that the way i give importance to others, others will now but then..... why do i still feel bad when people behave a little carefree... why????

why do i get used to someone so easily, why should i even allow people to be my good frnd so quickly and easily,.... and i hate changes which occur in friendship, infact any relationship... things become a routine so soon.... people become so important so soon... am I so lonely inside, that I allow everyone to come close to me and then get hurt....

Ok, I know this particular article doesnt make any sense to you... let it be... as I am just penning down my thoughts cos I dont want to feel bad about things and not because I want someone to read it and judge me... no....

The whole point is I am an idiot to do this to myself. first talk to everyone i come across (well, that a par of my job too) then be friendly with them. then very soon allow them to be close to me (become my real good pal) and then want it to be like that always.... which never happens...GOd!!! ya I am referring to a new friend here... Suddenly I have become so used to this frnd that one day if we dont speak then my day seems to be incomplete... It will be too much to ask if I force my friend yo talk to me atleast for few mins,.. I cant do that, cos I know I am not the other person's priority, but then why should i feel bad if the other person is not able to give me ample time... its their chioce right....


anyways, all i know is i have to be a little more stern with people... and have no expectations with people around... I hope that helps.. not penning down my thoughts more cos I feel to stop here... Though i actually have lots more to say

Friends again ;)

No no no no...... This is not a sequel to my earlier blog "Friends - an inseparable part of Life" This is something new and exciting..

As I stated earlier, Friends are very important to us. In all stages of our lives, they are the only ones who stay always with us. And looks like I am too blessed by God when it comes to friends (Touch wood ;) )

Well, in just last two months, three good things happened to me. In the month of September, I happened to get in touch with my primary school mate.. His name is Krishna, we had lost track of each other after our primary education. After 14 years, I happened to get in touch with him. He was my buddy at school, we used to take part in all activities together at school. Whether it was studies, dramatics, dance or any other competitions we were the best competitors. I remember very well, how in third standard, every alternate examination, both of used to get 1st and 2nd rank in the class. I still remember how he made a greeting card for me once and presented. I also remember how he used to steal my tiffin and run away ;) my rakhi brother  God, I missed you so much, all this years .. good you are back :)

Now, the second good thing is very similar, there is this frnd of mine who studied with me from 6th to 12th. This girl was one of the toppers in the class but she always used to sleep in the class. I still wonder how she managed to be the topper without being attentive in classes. Well, that’s not the catch. The good thing which happened is last week, I was traveling by train and I just bumped into her. For ten mins, we dint know how to react.??? Both of us were really surprised. I still cant explain in words as to how excited I was to see her. I still remember and will always be greatful to her for all her help during my tenth. She used to prepare a timetable for both of us and we used to sit and study everyday as per our timetable. I think I got good marks in my borad exams only because of her. Thanks GOD forgiving me a chance to get in touch with her again and probably thank her for all that she has done :) :) :)

Well, the final good thing which happened is I made a new friend. Ya, I know u must be thinking wats so special about it, I make friends every other day. But, this person is really special. Just like my other special friends he is also a little older than me. (Looks like I go well only with people elder to me :p I already have five frnds like tht ;) ) Now, what I like bout him is – he is sensible, thoughtful, and good at heart. Sometimes he is so sweet tht I feel my thank you’s are small to make him realize how good I feel when he is around.

Today, I was upset the whole day, but a little time and patient listening of his made my day  May God always bless him and my other friends so that they keep the ones around them happy and spread joy around.

I love you all my dear friends and glad to have each one of you. Thanks again GOD. As, I said I am really lucky to have so many good friends :) :) :)

Thanks GOD!!

Its been a month since I have started working again. After cursing God on my earlier blogs, yes its time to thank him :) Thanks for keeping the best for me :) I am glad and now i can be assured tht i will achieve atleast one of those three goals i ve spoken about in the earlier blogs... I hope one by one I am able to start working on each of my goals :)

Thanks again GOD!!

Siblings..

Today while suddenly chatting to a frnd,came up the topic of siblings. And this thought or feeling came into my mind. I felt as if I ve been deprived of the happiness of having a sibling who can - talk to you, love you, teach you things , learn from you, fight with you, compete with u, be ur best pal, same time be the most irritating person of earth...and so on..

How I wish I had someone to share all these feelings with :( but then I also see tht my sister gave me a reason to live, to do something, its because of her tht i ve some dreams, a vision of my future. I am wat i am mostly because of her. Its the wish of giving her a good future made me so serious about my life and my desires..

I dont know if I shud be sad or glad. All i know is I love her and may god never bring such a day in my life whr my love and care for her reduces even a little.. I love you and will always do dear sis :) God Bless You....

his rudeness or my over friendliness??

It was closed to nine thirty or ten when I sent a text message to this newly made friend of mine. We have few common friends and one of them has her birthday this Tuesday. I was asking him last night (thro gtalk) if we could plan a surprise b'day party for her or something. I told him that I ll plan out something and let everyone know. But only this morning I realized that I am actually going out of town on tuesday so it wont be possible for me to be there on her birthday.

I dint message him the whole day thinking he must be at work and i shouldn't disturb. Sometime back I sent him a text message regretting my unavailability for the birthday. and we just exchanged two three messages and suddenly he says - excuse me mam. i am out now. :(

It was like slamming a door on my face. How am i suppose to know he is out... and for gods sake, there are hundred better ways to say that he is busy... why does he have to be so rude to me??? Just because I talk, keep making fun and behave kiddish doesn't mean i am stupid. I ve self respect.

Sometimes I feel its my mistake to be so nice to strangers... cos many of them don't deserve this good behavior.

Marriage *$&^&()$%^%&(&

Eh... The very word scares me so much... I ve goosebumps when i think about it. Its not tht I dont wanna get married. Its just that I am not sure, if I will happen to meet a guy who meets my expectation(s).

Its been more than a year that I ve been postponing the very topic of marriage. But now, my parents are getting a little serious about it. I am telling them that I want to marry someone whom I know well, whom I choose for self. I kind of don't believe much in arrange marriages. I mean the very concept of arrange marriage doesn't sound great to me. How can I decide whether I like someone on the basis of a ten mins meeting??? Ten mins would not be enough to even know about his likes and dislikes. I don't know how can a life long decision be made just like that. when I tell my mom, that I wanna marry a guy of my choice and ask her not to look for someone outside our city she asks me only one question - " do u like someone?? let me know. We will get you married with him. Dont ever think of running away or something"

The pity is I don't like anyone :( Look at the irony there are many of my friends who are struggling to convince their parents to get them married to a person of their choice. And here, my parents are ready to get me married to a person of my choice but I don't have any :(((

Its not that I am looking for some very handsome, multimillionaire type of a guy. I want to live my life with a simple guy, who loves and respects his family, who is intelligent, has an outgoing nature, who understands my responsibilities and, if not help at least let me take care of them. And most important someone from my city only. I don't wanna relocate :( plss

I think if these things are there, then the rest can be adjusted or taken care of. But the problem is I don't find any guy like this anywhere?? DO you know anyone?? Then just let me know.. Plss

Please God, I wanna meet my Mr. Right. I dont wanna get married the arranged way :( NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PLs.

I will meet him some day na ??

Friends - An inseparable part of life :)

I was so irritated, dull and unwell yesterday until I received a call from my friend, Div. Its not tht we spoke after a long time, we spoke just day before yesterday but our conversations went so long and we spoke so much, that I totally forgot about my bad mood and every other tension i had...

Thanks Div :) you made up my day. Its always so nice catching up with you:) Love you sweetie :)

Hope 2

Wondering why I am writing a sequel to Hope??? Well, I am yet to receive an answer from the organization where I had been for an interview yesterday :( I shall wait till tomorrow, otherwise I will inquire from my end. I am banking on it. Lets see.

Well, I received another call today. It was from one of the Fortune 500 companies. The discussion went on well. The caller kind of fixed up the interview for tomorrow, until he asked me about my compensation and expectation. And he had a second thought I guess, cos my last drawn CTC is quite high when compared to the market trends. I am not looking for any hike I explained, he said he will look into it and call me back tomorrow :(

I don't know why you always do this to me God???? Every time I think, that yes this is it... you somehow mess it up for me :( You play with me as the children tease each other in school.
A child shows lollipop to another, asks him to have it and when the other one opens his mouth to taste it, the first one puts it in his own mouth..... I feel like that second child... every time U do this to me... aren't you tired of all this??? Or you don't have anybody else than me to trouble????? tell me???

I am telling you its more than enough now... PLS STOP PLAYING WITH ME :(

But let me tell you one thing... Even I will not give up so soon... Trust me on this .....

Hope

I was surfing the net this morning and I received a call from my ex-boss. was quite surprised to know why she called me. Her husbands team has a vacancy and she wanted to know if I am interested. It was a recruiters profile and I immediately said yes. she said tht the requirement is immediate and its on contract. I was taken away for a min but then thought why not. I said yes and she fixed up an interview with her husband in the evening.

I reached the venue before time and completed the initial formalities. Her husband was kind enough to me and dint grill me much as he said he knows about my work and other things. He then made me meet one of the Heads and the discussion with him went for sometime and went in a good manner as well.

I guess I ll mostly get this position. But there are two major concerns with this job:
1. Its on contract for just three months
2. The pay is not even half of what i was receiving earlier.

I think in this job scenario where no one is recruiting, I better opt for it. cos if I do so, I will get experienced in hard core recruitment which will add weight to my profile. and once i start working, it will be even more easy for me to look for a better opportunity. though the pay is less, but its certainly better than no pay :)

so i am going for it and I hope they take me in...

Pray for me :)

Devil Kisser - Turn Off

I really dont know how irksome can one behave??

Last week, I was at the library preparing for some exams. The whole day I was sitting and reading. In the time period of six hours which i spent at the library, thr were some ten men who sat next to me at different times. and one among them even borrowed a white sheet from me to copy his notes.

the irksome behaviour was. . . when I opened my notebook the next day, I see a chit in it. Some one left it with the following written / scribbled on it :

I would like to be your friend

rajesh, (then something scribbled) 9962613828

devil.kisser@rediff.com

What I dont understand is, how can he even imagine tht someone wud reply to such lousy act of his??? I got so irritated for a sec,...
but then posted it on my Facebook and had humorous reply from my frnds. The best suggestion was to give his number to all the telecallers who call up from banks and financial institutions.. Tht was funny..

still cant believe people are so desperate to do all this... Phew ..

14th sept 09

Thr are so many things which happened in last few days.. Nothing very big and all.. but ya some good and bad things lets start with the good ones :
1. My best frnd gets engaged
2. another frnd has found his life partner and they are getting engaged soon.
3. my college mate is gettin married this month :) she came home for lunch and we had some good time :)
4. I liked some one at one of the functions ;) ha ha ha isnt it good, i mean i took interest in someone :)
5. kept myself busy for a fortnight with books, as I was preparing for an exam
6. Some of my relatives came down and I went around with them

now coming to the not so good things :(

1. went for an interview, cleared two rounds but failed in the last one
2. The test for which i was preparing for so long, dint do it well. The time was not sufficient to complete it
3. still confused as to what i am aiming at in life..

in cut short, this is how my last twenty days went ... but as I keep myself saying, the good things are yet to come and they WILL COME :)

Happy for you, Friend :)

I met one of my dearest friend this Saturday. For the first time in last 4 and a half years I saw him so happy and so relaxed. He used to be so confused always and today he knows what he has to do and how... And you know what changed him so much?? "LOVE" - Yes those four magical letters changed him so much. He has finally found his life partner and the best part is she is really the best choice for him. I have really never seen him so happy. GOD! I am so glad to see him like this. Please keep them both HAPPY ALWAYS :) My best wishes to both of you - Vinod and Lavanya. Waiting for you to come to our city, Lavanya :)

--- Love changes people for good ---

NAYAA DAUR

Dekho nayaa daur hai aaya,

Saath apne kai rang hai laayaa,

Ab nahin ladkiyaan ghar main ghutati ,

Woh toh hain ladkon se kaandhe milake chalti,

Ab nahin rahaa ghar main ghoonghat,

Auraten gown main hain ghoomti.

Dekho nayaa daur hai aaya,

Saath apne kai rang hai laayaa,

Ab vichaaron ki nadiyaan hain khul ke behti,

Ab logoon ki soch seemit naa rehti,

Ab log naa karte baat chand ki,

Woh toh karte hain koshish mangal par jaane ki.

Dekho nayaa daur hai aaya,

Saath apne kai rang hai laayaa,

Ab toh school-college,

Lejaayaa jaataa hai kitaabon ka boraa,

Chaatra-chaatraayen attendance ke chakkar main

Aate hain college saal pura.

Dekho nayaa daur hai aaya,

Saath apne kai rang hai laayaa,

Ab ladkiyaan dahej nahin hain deti,

Woh to ladkoon ko hain jail main bhejti,

Ab naa rahi arrange marriage ki jhanjhat,

Bachchhe karen luv marriage jhat-pat.

Dekho nayaa daur hai aaya,

Saath apne kai rang hai laayaa,

Ab toh har stri karti hai koshish,

Tulsi ya paarvati banane ki,

Ab toh har mard karta hai koshish,

Miheer se om banane ki.

Dekho nayaa daur hai aaya,

Saath apne kai rang hai laayaa,

Jahan ye naya daur khushiyan,

Lekar hai aayaa,

Wahin isne kai logoon ka

Dil bhi hai dukhaayaa.

Ab naa rahaa choton ke dil main,

Badon ke liye aadar-satkaar,

Aur naa rahaa apno ke prati

Woh pehle waala pyaar.

Ab duniya main badh gayi hai,

Jhooth aur makkaari ki taadaat

Aise main imaandar aur sachchhe log

Mar rahen hain til-til- har din, har raat.

Kyoon naa hum, is naye daur ko,

Naye tareeke se sawaaren

Saath rakhen achchhi baaten aur

Buri aadaton ko nakaaren.

Aayo prem aur sadbhaav se

Hum apne kartavyon ko nibhayen

Apnepan aur khushiyon ke

Ujjwal Rangoon se,

Hum apne maye daur ko sajaayen.

Aur aane waali peedhee ke liye

Ek nayi misaal ban jayen

Aayo, apne is daur ko sajaayen

Apne is daur ko sajaayen.

Clarity?????

I am high with emotions today... I am not able to understand whr am i wrong exactly... I have few things to do a few goals to achieve in life but somehow i feel something is missing... i am not sure if i am taking the right path.. i have prioritized one of these goals but not able to achieve much... wat can be the reason??? Is there a lack of dedication?? lack of support (of course it is) but is tht lack of support not allowing me to dedicate much to the goal i wanted to achieve in the past few months??

There is something which is eating me from inside... I have tooo many things to do and i see tht the time i have is very little.. there are personal plans, professional goals and quite a few things for the family. how do i know which one to prioritise??? One must be thinking y cant i work on them simultaneously?? but thts not possible and i know it... atleast the first two can be achieved simultaneously but the third one..... Gosh!!! i am at such a mess...

The third one is very important and i know tht if i work for the other two or any of the other two i cant achieve this third one... but if i dont work on the other two now it will be too late and i might not be able to achieve them at all... and the third one.... thst equally important and needs immediate attention as well...

Quite confusing na??? yes it is.... there is stability of thoughts which is missing... thr is a need to analyse the whole situation again to have more clarity... but everytime i think and try analysing i only get more confused... last 9 months i ve spent in reaching a goal... initially thr were no hopes but in the forth to sixth month of my plan i saw a little improvement and my hopes took birth again... i want to continue with it with more dedication but i also see time slipping away from my hands.... i know if i concentrate on this goal of mine properly.. though it will take time i ll surely reach it... but then i also know tht if i dont work out things now for the other goals it will be too late for me and i dont want to regret later as well...


Solution:

for some time, i am pushing aside my personal plans.... i think i can still take some time to think about it.... let me concentrate on my family and professional plans for now... in know its near to impossible to concentrate on both but i guess for time being i can.....

Let me work on these two with full dedication and lets see after a month, wats the progress i have made with each... I just hope and pray and wish and will try not to waste time thinking wat to do and how to do.... I wanna grab every opportunity which comes across to me to achieve these wishes, these plans of mine...

Ameen...

I hope i will be able to sleep now... If not peaceful one, atleast a little rest to the body....

Zindagi Kya hai

This one I wrote years back... I got my first prize in a city level Poetry competition for this one... :)

Island grounds

started and written on 8th march,2009 but posted late..

Last evening was one among the most wonderful evenings... after more than a month of planning and me pestering people, finally some of my friends agreed to join me to the island grounds. Its like a mela organised in the city for around two to three months...

I remember when I was studying in school, every year I used to wait for the time for the exhibition to set up. It used to be my favorite place, cos tht was the only place in city whr they had all kind of fun rides and trust me till date i enjoy them all like 5 yr old kid :)

This is one place my parents wud never forget cos I ve got lost nearly two to three times in the exhibition. My mother would be just looking at some article at a stall and I would just be looking at something, thinking something and walking around only to realise after few mins that I ve got lost :) But my good luck, everytime I would only end up meeting a police officer, or a constable and then like a good child I would tell them my name, my age, fathers name and address and there would be an announcement for them to come and pick me from there...

Childhood was so good... you can do anything you want... anyways i wont deviate the topic of this post which is about island grounds... For the first time I went there with someone other than family... We enjoyed the rides like school kids... and as usual I was the one hooting around the most... I love to try the most craziest and scariest or rides...

We all for few hours went back to our childhood and enjoyed each others company... There was this haunted mansion kind of a thing... It was totally dark and two of my friends were walking ahead and others followed. The organizers had hired few kids in the of 12 to 14 to wear the masks and scare people.. The group which was before ours stopped as one of them got scared by the kid s disguise and my friend thought that these kids are actually miss behaving or something with the visitors so he just came in the front and kicked a boy... my GOD! tht kid cried in pain.... For few mins it was all panic inside the dark place.. we were all holding hands with each other and our dear friend POTATO (name changed) got so scared that he wanted to rush out first and in that rush he pushed all of us.. some of us got hurt though nothing big.... BUT u potato...... u only show off to be brave actually u r a cat.... a SCARED CAT...

At the end we took few snaps at the seven wonders of the world (tht was one of the delights of this years exhibition) and then came back home... on the whole it was fun with friends.... (snap attached)

"few professionals turned into kids for few hours" ;)

The Biggest Fight

Every person has a whole lot of dreams for himself and his loved ones. He turns his dreams into reality; some by luck, some by help, but most of them by his hard work, dedication, experience and his belief in himself. One can never achieve anything if he doesn’t believe in himself. And his confidence increases a multiple times when he sees a belief for himself in the eyes of his loved ones. His puts in all his efforts, infact works more than his normal capacity, so that he does not let his loved ones down.

But what happens, if his loved ones do not have faith in his efforts and believe his decisions have not served to be good in anyway??? Well, that’s when the biggest fight of his life starts. One can fight with the whole world but can never gather enough strength to fight against his loved ones. He has to not just prove himself right but also regain the confidence of his loved ones.

But how many win this fight?? Now that’s an unanswerable question..

No God or Know God?

Went through this article on one of the websites.. kind of liked it so much that wanna keep it for future reading...

An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem Science has with God, The Almighty। He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
Prof: So you believe in God?Student: Absolutely, sir
।Prof: Is God good?Student: Sure। Prof: Is God all-powerful?Student: Yes
Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him
Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill। But God didn't
How is this God good then? Hmm? (Student is silent।)
Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fellow
Is God good?
Student: Yes
Prof: Is Satan good ?
Student: No
Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From...God
Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Prof: So who created evil? (Student does not answer. )
Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?
Student: Yes, sir.
Prof: So, who created them? (Student has no answer.)
Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?
Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.
Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?Student:
Yes.Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.
Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.
Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Prof: Yes.Student: And is there such a thing as cold?
Prof: Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn't.
(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)
Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, But we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.
(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)
Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?
Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?
Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?
(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)
Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavour, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?
(The class is in uproar.)
Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?
(The class breaks out into laughter.)
Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable. )Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.
Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH. That is all that keeps things moving & alive.....

हमे तुमसे कितना प्यार है!

Stithi / Situation : एक लड़की अपने प्रेमी से kehti है...

तुम्हे क्या पता तुमसे कितना प्यार करती हूँ मैं,
सिर्फ़ तुम्हारे लिए अब यह जीवन जीती हूँ मैं,
तुम्हारा हर पल इंतज़ार करती हूँ मैं,
तुम्हारे इंतज़ार में आहें भरती हूँ मैं…

उठते बैठते, सिर्फ़ तुम्हारा ही ख्याल है,
जान हो तुम मेरी, तुम बिन जीना दुष्वार है,
तुम्हारी यादों में दिल बेकरार है,
हमसे मिलो तो jano, की हमें तुमसे कितना प्यार है...

Who's Challenged? and Who's Normal??

Its been three days since I went through a post by name happiness on this blog " http://www.ssidhi.blogspot.com/" The author talks about a special kid and how he felt after meeting him. This story made me put down my feelings here.....

We generally go to meet these special kids (still called mentally challenged or physically challenged, even mentally retarded by most of our well literate friends) and try to show our love and affection to them. (which is by the way only pity by most of us) We cud see how they smile at us and leave us wondering as to even with a difficult life like that they are still smiling with a contended heart……

I have seen many kids like Palani. As the author described, its true that these kids dont know anything. They dont know, when to eat, what to eat, what to wear, how to hold something, how to say something, how to convey a pain and so on. They eat only what is served, they wear only what is chose by the care taker, they do only what someone else plans for them. They have a life but its been taken care (controlled) by someone else. But still, their innocence keeps them delighted with small things. You see them, looking at us and only smiling from their heart….

Imagine, if for a day we have to live a life like any one of them? Just take an example of a person who has a mobility issue, cannot move without a help. Will you and I be able to live like that even for a day?? No..... Absolutely not. You may contradict my thoughts for now. But I guess it is true that we (most of us) will get agitated, we will go crazy in just sometime, we shall lose our patience and even misbehave. But these kids, they are certainly God's favourite. God knew that we, the “so called normal’s” cannot handle a difficult life like theirs and hence he made us, the so called perfect. But he knew that these kids will handle these difficulties well Cos they have got immense tolerance, patience, courage, contentment (with the way things are) and so much of innocence...

We the “so called normal’s” can’t even imagine of living a life like them for a day and they have been living so, for years. WE lack all that they excel (patience, tolerance, courage, contentment (with the way things are) and innocence).
I guess they are far better human beings than us.

And now I know why they smile when we look at them with pity. Probably in their hearts they must be laughing that we the impatient, hasty humans can never be as good as them. Now you tell me, Who’s Challenged and Who’s Normal????

Passwords

I have been wondering how people manage to remember so many passwords.. In this digitised world, you have a login and password for everything. At office there is a password to log on to ur comp, then one to log on to your emails. And, now n number of social networks, passwords to each one of them, and yes to add on here comes, the blog... (Of course u can keep same passwords for all but that not a good idea for security reasons) Its been just an hour that i created a new id for this blog and guess wat - I FORGOT MY PASSWORDS
Here i wanted to post another blog about wat happened yesterday and i realise, i forgot my passwords. The account was new as well and i just could not remember wat i gave. Though i kind of remembered wat it was but still i could not log on..
God bless!!! the person, who thought of having forget password as an option.. and one more blessing to the one who thought of asking people to give alternative IDs. There i used this option and I received a mail on my alternative / secondary mail id. I quickly went throough it and noticed that the password is the same as i was feeding in.... Then my eyes went on the username.... after seeing it all i can do was curse myself for being so careless. I missed the last letter of my sur name.. my id is a combo of my firstname and surname.
I felt like hitting myself at that moment, but then now i am just smiling. I am smiling as to how careless i could be??? Had I noticed that mistake earlier, I cud have saved so much of time, and written what I wanted...
But then lets look at the brighter side.... had i not been so careless... then this post would ve never been typed... now thats wat i call being optimistic :-)

First Post

First blog post of mine and i am tired even before writing. I am not tired because its late in the night but because it took me almost an hour to create this blog. I am thinking why my parents named me with a name which is so common. that even though i tried different ways to create one account i could not.
And then, just like the twist in movies, I find this friend online, my saviour, one who I felt cud probably help me with a name. Then, we try out names in hindi, english, sanskrit and even a lil bit of tamil, only to realise..... they are already being used by someone....
and then deciding, not to use either my name nor any adjectives we come to the conclusion of this blogging name. Now thats about how we came to decide upon this name. And yes, as I promised my friend I am gonna thank him for the help he did.. So THANKS Dear :-)

But, wat made me think to blog????
Ya.. i know its among the latest and coolest things people do... but, thts not a reason y i am bloggin.. i ve been writing my diaries since nine years now... I think thats the best way one can relook at things you have come across. I ve enjoyed writing all these years... and wanna try the digitised wayof it.....I hope I enjoyin bloggin the same way I enjoy wiritng :-)
Good wishes to myself :)
