My Fav....??

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters!!

An Action packed Fortnight!!

It was an amazing fortnight guys....was busy like its been all life....n there was Happiness galore all around me....seemed like a perfect world!
- It started with an OSO Theme Party...it was awesome with dancers..hmm...u know what I am talking about! n I was dressed to KILL!!(grins)
- I met up with so many people and networked with quite a few!
- It was gr8 to have so many relatives around with so much energy that it made every moment spent worthwhile. I really cherished it.
- The function went off really well...had a blast each nite...
- V is really really happy!! Looked Handsome in each function!Adored him!
- I seemed to have picked up this line, an old saying, from a recent movi.."Badi shiddat se maine tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai....Ki har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saazish ki hai"!! In English ..If u really want something, the whole world conspires for u to get it!! I somehow really like it since the time I read it...for me it has a meaning....Nothing can come in between If U REALLY want something more than yourself..a selfless craving more than your life...!! Sadly its not the case always..n u end up meeting ungrateful ppl in life!
- Moving on,I noticed that there has been quite a remarkable change in me...I noticed it during this wedding.....I have started LIKING KIDS!!;) OMG, whats wrong with me!!Holy Shit!!I cant believe I said it of all the people!! People who know me would know!
- One more strange thing, suddenly everybody I meet, I know or I come across... seems to be getting hooked up!! from my neighbours..to friends..to family friends..people I am not in touch with..even people i HATE!! i have quite a list here!

Guys..I am not as gud in writing as some of the other ones on the net....but all I wanted to share was what I felt during this fortnight...the criss-crossing of thoughts..the constant turmoil...the umpteen hope...strengthening bonds...and re-connecting with family! It was a dream run..and am glad it happened..it has brought out a different person in me...one whose Happy and Content!!Aptly said "I feel like the King of the world"!!;)

My BEST Half......Mudita ;)

My Bundle of joy...
My better half

You are my sanity..
And at times; insanity

Everything changes with time,
Even the sun doesnt shine forever

People come and go,Change..
Life is created and destroyed

But you defy the unpredictability of it all,

What you feel is what you are,
And what you are is beautiful.

To my FREINDS Wife without whose help/narration this could not have bin completed in HALF TIME!! ;)

The 'feel-happy' medicine!!

Wife and I are cruising. I am at the wheel. Wife is giving instructions. She is also reacting rather personally to each potential road crisis as if all of it is my making.

"Maybe you should get a driver," wife says. " You look nervous driving." Your instructions and hyperventions dont help either, I want to say, but dont. " I am nervous," I agree. I realise we are always in agreement when there is a negative judgement about me. "No one observes rules in this city," I add, staring at two young girls in tights. One of them is wearing a pair of hipsters cut so low, they might have been stockings. Maybe they are stockings. And she is just a very hopeful person.

"You shouldnt be staring at girls," wife says. What else am I to do in a traffic jam, I want to ask, but dont. Has she got nothing better to do than watch what I am watching?? Cant a man just lust? "The traffic here is not good for my cholestrol," I say. "You need to drink less," wife says. It occurs to me she has a solution for all my crisis and all of them seem to involve my sacrificing one pleasure or another. "Lets go to my homeopath," wife says. "He is also a counsellor. You need a counsellor."
" I dont know about that," I say.
" I do. Lets please go to the counsellor now. You are always stressed and this guy is really good."
"All right then,lets go," I say.

The homeopath welcomes us into his cabin on the mezzanine floor. We sit, and I see him exchanging knowing glances with wife. Maybe this is a set-up? "So you feel stressed?" The homeopath asks me.
"Yes"
"Has he any fears?" the homeopath asks wife. Maybe he thinks she is my mother?. "So many fears," wife sighs, looking at me." What are your fears?" the homeopath asks me. " I fear someting bad is going to happen any time," I say. "Hmm," the homeopath says and nods his head at wife. "Anxiety neurosis," he says. Wife smiles at him in understanding. Naturally, her synpathies are with the homeopath. "What else?" the homeopath asks. "You feel people are out to get you?"
"All the time."
"Paranoia," the homeopath whispers, as if that was the name of a very close friend who recently died. "Does he shout at home?" he asks wife. Wife nods. "Only when I cant find my underwear in the cupboard," I say.
The homeopath looks at wife. I am hoping the homeopath will hold her responsible for the missing briefs, but nothing of that sort transpires. Wife smiles at him. Homeopath smiles back. "Is he impatient?"
"Is he impatient!" wife says. "He is Mr. Jhut-Put Chowdhary. He is very very impatient. The most impatient man I know,in fact."
"Only when I am in a hurry," I say. "I am always having too many things to do." Thats sounds weak even to me.
"Hmm," the homeopath says."Is he confident?" he asks wife. Hello, I am here, but never mind me, I feel like saying,but dont.
"He seems to be on the face of it,but I am not too sure,"wife says helpfully."Yes, ofcourse,you never know, it could be all an act," the homeopath says.
Maybe you two should get married,I feel like saying,but I dont. "I am pretty cool with people," I say. "Hmm," the homeopath says. "Isnt he a writer or something?" he asks wife. She nods.
"I came across something you wrote the other day.Sad and confused,it struck me. Why do you write sad stuff?"
"Not sad.Just truth and irony."
"All negative stuff,really.Why do you feel so negative,huh?"
I was hoping you would figure that out for me."
"Hmm," the homeopath says.
"Write happy stuff.Feel happy stuff.Talk happy stuff,okay? I have got some really good medicine here for you. Take it regularly and you will feel happy."
"If I feel too happy,I might stop writing,you know?"
"Never mind," wife says.
She says it as if no one would miss it if I stopped writing."Ofcourse I mind," I say. "Time to choose between writing and happiness," the homeopath says, handing me a bottle of medicine and a measuring glass. "And between family and writing as well," wife says. Such choices, I want to say,but dont.
we get into the car. I am at the wheel. wife is giving instructions.

Its All BLACK!! ;)

If people can be colour,I'm black for sure, and not just because I wear the colour to the exclusion of everything else. Black isnt just a colour, its a state of mind,a personality quirk,a mood; black is wicked,mysterious,enigmatic,intense; it is classic,stylish,chic; it is versatile and unpredictable; it is great standalone, and equally perfect combined with something else; it has drama and spunk; it has layers and textures; basically, ans as you can clearly tell, I'm in love with black.
But there's loads of black beyond style; whether you're talking black moods, or the dard side of ourselves. Much as I lust after black, its not all feelgood. it also denotes Death!! An End! However I dont mean it only in the negative sense...afterall death can be beautiful too..but either way it signifies an end from where there is no return. the colour is somwhat akin to the forbidden fruit-irresistible. Its a bit scary but you cant help finding out more about it. Anything black evokes a very satiable curiosity in me.
There's a saying as we all know "Black is beautiful"..it is!! At night, when the serene black cloaks the sky with a sprinking of glittering stars, thats the time that black looks utmost beautiful!! I simply adore and love the beaches when the surroundings are velvety-black, with the dark waves lapping at the shores and the palm trees swaying away to glory...the sound they make that time is simply amazing.

(PS: The reason am all so exited about black is..I have a black theme party tonite.. secondly I just bought this fab shirt!!);)

The Indian Superhero Cult!!

Everyone loves a hero.While we are on the look out for presidents to save our country, moviebiz found two new superheroes. one is fantasy, the other is phantasmagoric. Sivaji and Spider-Man.Rajnikant and Tobey maguire have gone where no men have gone before. Their antics have slayed the box office. So what keep ur brains at home. Two strangely attired men, one from South of the Vindhyas, the other from across the seven seas save the world. One says that with absolute power comes absolute responsibility. The other says, "To hell with being responsible,I'm going to bust the gust of baddies." Essentailly, both Spider-Man and Sivaji are trying to work their own belief systems in a world gone terribly wrong. One wears a mask and spins a web. The other changes 56 costumes, romances a girl 30 years his junior and packs a mean punch.
Both are travesties of the conventional hero. one's a weakling, the other's dark-skinned. Both considered anathemas as far as traditional film-making goes. But both Sivaji and Spider-Man 3 hit the right buttons. Because, at the end of the day, they are just trying to mske sense out of all the nonsense around them. Spider-Man faces high-tech villians, saves kids, Sivaji goes through orgiastic prances with the girls, sticks chewing gum on his forehead and tosses a coin like only he can. Call it burleque, absurd or corny. It works and that's the bottomline.
So when it rains it pours. As far as trade guessmates go, Spidey has netted record crores and Sivagi raked in the three-figure-mark in the first 14 days of their release. Not bad for ordinary men who became extraordinary through their cinematic deeds. And at the end of the day, both Sivaji and Spider-Man are bang on the buck. You feel empowered when you come out of the multiplex. Suspend belief. Like the Adidas ad,"impossible is nothing!"
Truly, we can achieve the impossible. Deewaar is now part of the latest NCERT textbook for class VII. Forget the furore, the point is it was used as an example to teach children the value of dignity. Remember the famous dialogue from Deewaar, "Main phenke hue paise nahin uthata?"
ABji disarms us all with his disarming candour(some call it mock modesty). Forget the naysayers, its just learning the importance of commom courtesies we middle class people share, especially calling back on missed calls!! and replies back to msgs.!!
Thats that then. Get wet, soak in the rain, turn the pages of a crisp newspaper on a rainy morning...whatever you do, have fun and try to save the world while you are at it....plant trees this monsoon. Succinctly put,enjoy!!

In the End...

This one's from LINKIN PARK.... my FAV... ;)

It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter
how hard you try
keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go I kept everything inside and even though I tried,
it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memoryof a time when
I TRIED SO HARD AND GOT SO FAR
BUT IN THE END IT DOES'NT EVEN MATTER
I HAD TO FALL
TO LOSE IT
ALL BUT IN THE END It DOES'NT EVEN MATTER
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn’t even matter
how hard you try,
keep that in mind I designed this rhyme,
to explain in due time
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'M SURPRISED IT GOT SO FAR(far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried,
it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
I’ve put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know
THAT IN THE END IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Now thats the summation of a gr8 gr8 song!! LIFE"S a BITCH..or ARE THERE BITCHES IN ONE'S LIFE???
I LEAVE U WITH THIS>>>to PONDER upon N LISTEN to the song once again!!;)

The Adrenalin Hunt!!

The first time I enrolled in a gym was many years ago, when they were freshly rolling out the virtues of workouts and I was a fresh Class 12th passout n a merit holder!! one florid magazine likened the post-work out phase to juicy cup cakes...I love cup cakes so I signed up with this place on top of my fav Non-veg haunt!! Thats PLAIN Coincidence! Ofcourse I have long abandoned the magazine. It was never about cup cakes.
The day I walked in, the instructor, a beefy n tough looking man, was barking at this slim structure on the bench press machine "C'mon, 1-2-3 push. 4-5-6 push. U wanna b like me? I'm 40 going on 30."
Okay, this convinced me some more, even though I was left when everyone was right. Thoroughly directionally challenged, I thought, but what the heck, I liked the idea, 40-going-on-30. I went through the motions: Stretches for 5 mins, step aerobics for 15 mins, cycling for 10 mins, treadmill for 15 and then I waited. I waited for that famous rush of endorphins to grab me and spirit me away...Instead of which, I could feel my legs giving way beneath me.
Tottering back home, every inch of of my body ached. Cup cakes my foot. I believed a truck ramming into me might have done a better job. I might feel better in a while, I convinced myself. Perhaps the adrenalin in my body was in a state of shock, not used to the gym and all that. Once home, I lay flat on the bed and slept like a baby.
Since then, I have been researching the highs of adrenalin like a maniac. Sometimes I've found it and sometimes not. It's with me on the dance floor, but abandons me on the rowing machine. It grabs me when I'm working out with weights but watch it fly when I'm doing step aerobics. And when I'm walking it's with me all the way. it knows what my body wants.
I know what my body wants. It wants an exercise that it can cope up with. It needs a workout that's conducive to my lifestyle, which can be rather sedantry. It needs a gentle fitness regimen. I'm glad I worked it out. I'm glad I work out. I'm glad I'm fit and in shape!!;)

You're Beautiful!!

Look at you...You're beautiful!! Contrary to what your mirror might say...contrary to what that volcanic bump of a dimple/pimple may say...contrary to what that unruly lock of hair that refuses to adhere to any gel of the world might say.
It's that twinkle in your eyes when you smile.... It's the way you look when you turn around...Its that wrinkling in your nose when you are annoyed...It's the way your lips move when you speak...It's the way you glow when you return from a brisk walk.
Everybody has that one particular trait in them that makes them beautiful. That endears them to the beholder, which makes them at that point of time the most beautiful woman in the world(ofcourse thats before you get married!!)...., perfect features be damned!! Afterall, perfection is not the criteria for beauty. Never was. someone who is perfect, has perfect features, perfect hair, perfect everything...loses that one thing that makes them beautiful...IMPERFECTION.

ITS TIME.....

Its time..I believe.....TO FINALLY GET BACK WHAT IS TRULY MINE....WHAT I HAVE LOST OVER THE PAST YEAR...Standing at the Railway Station on that COLD January13th night I realised....Its time I got back my Self Respect...Dignity...Integrity and ofcourse some SENSE!!!! and yes...maybe a couple of frens....[;)]
ITS TIME....TO RECLAIM MY LIFE!!

"I WILL PERSIST UNTIL I SUCCEED...
I WAS NOT DELIVERED INTO THIS WORLD IN DEFEAT...
NOW DOES FAILURE COUSE IN MY VEINS...
I AM NOT A SHEEP WAITING TO BE PRODDED BY MY SHEPHERD
I AM A LION....
AND, I REFUSE TO TALK....TO WALK....
....TO SLEEP WITH THE SHEEP....
THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE OF FAILURE IS NOT MY DESTING...
I WILL PERSIST UNTIL IN SUCCEED!!!!"
