Maybe next time…

Maybe next time we will meet again, in a whole new way..

Next time I will bring those charming eyes,
Or maybe next time I would want that good luck mole on my face…

Next time I will be talking to you about my emotions. About my fondness,
Or maybe next time I will steal that heart from your sleeves to mine…

Next time we won’t hit each other,
Or maybe next time we will hit on each other…

Next time I will bring my luck with me,
Or maybe next time it will be your cupid that will hit me…

Next time you wont be the robin to my ted,
Or maybe next time I will be the lily to your marshall…


Maybe next time…

That Little Girl who made everyone Smile!!

When our world is facing depravity and experiencing the feeling of cynicism,today I experienced a very noble act of honesty...

After I left from office in the evening I boarded a 7:03pm Panvel local from Govandi station,the train was really overcrowded so I stood at the side near the door.At Vashi station the train got even more crowded,with the crowd a hawker also jumped in.She was a little girl,she must be around 10 yrs old.Honestly I got pissed off a little as the train was already so crowded and who wants to buy ginger and corn in such situation.

I ignored and started looking outside the door.

After few seconds I heard a lady telling the little girl to pick something up from the train floor,the girl was not ready she was nodding her head and telling "what will I do with it" but  the lady continued to coax her "Pick it up and keep it with you" "Pick it up or someone will stamp on it" but the girl kept nodding no. One of her ginger corn bag must have fallen down!, I thought.

But to my surprise there was a 2rs coin fallen down and the little girl was not ready to pick it up.After some more coaxing from the lady the girl agreed and she picked up the coin and handed to the lady."Keep it" said the lady.."NO" replied the girl "I cant its not mine" the entire crowd went silent and started looking at the little girl.

I noticed we all were smiling!!!

"Such honesty!!" said the girl standing beside me. Yes even I was stunned a little.

It might really  be a very small incident but it really really touched my heart...seriously where this world is engraved with selfishness and greed such incident make you keep faith in this not so bad world.

I really wanted to click a picture of this girl and ask her name but I could not,she got down with the crowd at Nerul station,but yes I do and will remember her and if I ever get a chance of meeting this little girl once again I am definitely gonna ask her name.

'That little girl who made everyone smile!!'

Micro-Tales!

A lot can be said even if you write a little.Power of words would I say.

Recently took part in Micro-Tale competition,though I didn't win,had an amazing time writing these...

1-Letting go her feeling for him,was not easy...

    Neither was getting married to another!!

    #feelings

2-Met at physics classes..

    Came out with a chemistry!

    #chemistry

3-She just dont used to write..

   She used to let her feelings bleed!!

    #bleed

4-"We love each other" they said

    "This is unacceptable" people said

     Little did the girls knew,

     loving someone could also be a crime!!

     #crime

5-For him she was his best friend

    For her he was Jon Snow

    "he knew nothing!"

    #best-friend

6-She had forgotten to handle happiness..

    As sorrow had stayed in her hand for too long!

    #sorrow

Proudly Single!!!

So here I am...coffee by my side..my favorite music playing behind me..and m all ready  to vomit out all my frustration on people commenting for me being still single....duh uh I mean PROUDLY SINGLE!!!

OK so I have been on the next marriage to do list by most of my married and precisely even single friends...be it suggestions..horror stories (will let u know ahead that why do i call it horror)..or be it them playing a cupid for me...I have got it all...OK OK I agree and have not a single doubt on,that their comments are fully well-intentional..and is for my better..those are just a way to encourage me...but trust me people we single people feel the exact opposite..opposite of encouraged..!!

So here i am listing down on the list of things which shouldn't be said to single people on this earth!!!


1) THEY: So why are u still single??_ _ _ _ .
     ME (in my mind):Well let me thing..uhh mmm mmm well maybe people have found out that
       I  am from  Jupiter :p :p

First of all how am I suppose to answer that..I mean how on this holy earth will I answer that... do I ever ask how come are you still married???

 ..OK I know its kind a compliment but I am tired of answering this(valid answer still not found)...but the problem is that this question refers to me as  that I shouldn't be single because I have already  crossed the so called society declared marriage age..it also makes me feel that I owe some kind of justification to them for me being single..
Trust me guys single-hood has its ups and downs and so does the married life..but isn't it better to live a happy single life then being in a wrong relationship?? (NOTE: this sentence in no way means that I don't want to get married)...



2)THEY:Tum bahut choosy ho.. u know you should learn to adjust.
    ME (in my mind):OK I promise I will marry the next guy I meet..pakka promise!!!

                                       

So is being choosy that bad?? (to all my single friend u should ignore such thing and say yes to being choosy!!)..The person whom I will spend my entire life..don't I have the right to choose him wisely..don't I have a personal choice..."this question refers to me as you are getting old please get married"..or lets simply say it refers to me as "the top u have been looking for is out of stock..please buy these loose pajamas they were not even sold  in stock clearance sale!!! kindly adjust ma'am"...OK,I know I know I am over exaggerating it...but this is what it feels..so before you blame someone for being choosy please note it,its their life and  its their right!!!



3)THEY:Have you tried shaadi.com or any other matrimonial site??
    ME (in my mind):No but I have tried scuba diving even that was quite adventurous!!

To be very clear..these marriage beuros are nothing but a money making business..and uploading a profile not only makes me feel useless but it also makes me feel unwanted..unwanted by family.and by people whom I  love..its feels like m shouting out "please take me m getting old..please please!!no one wants me here" huh!! I dont beleive in the funda where I pay a certain..wait..i mean a big amount to buy a soul-mate..so next time if u r suggesting me or any other single person to open an account on such marriage websites think before doing  it.



4)THEY:Staying alone is not easy..u need someone..especially in your older age!!
    ME (in my mind):Ok so marriage is investment plan..u get retirement benefits..

This is no less then a horror story..I mean scaring someone that they might end up dying alone is a very negative way to convince someone to get married...this one is a total thumbs down from me..!!

5)THEY:You should be positive..things happen when u least expect it!!
    ME(in my mind):Alright but I am  never on expectation mode..or should I put myself on                   expectation mode     what are expectations??..what kind of expectations??..well wait u have             confused me a little...

So this comment is partly true..I  know many people who have met unexpectedly with each other..but this comment makes me believe that I shouldn't expect anything or maybe I am doing something wrong by expecting!!

6)THEY (especially the oldie):Read this prayer and see how it helps in searching for your right          partner
   ME(in my mind):What??????...please please also give me a prayer  which will help me to get          unlimited supply of money!!!

First of all I am not an atheist..I totally believe in god and I have full faith in my religion.But please for god sake lets not mix our stupidity into it.God always has his own plans which is for our betterment,I will never ever pray only for the sake of my selfishness..i would rather focus on being a good human being and I am  sure this will be more rewarding.


7)THEY:I wish even i was single like you...you are so lucky!!
   ME(in my mind):Hey wait weren't you happily married and weren't you convincing me to tie the       knot as soon as possible...you cheat..were you trying to make my life miserable..I hate you             huh!!!

I agree that whoever says this lines does not literally mean it..these lines come up by married people when it comes to freedom!!...yes I am free free to do whatever I want..I pay my own bills..eat whatever I want to ..go out whenever I want to...and even can sleep and wake up whenever I want..my schedule is in my own hand...yes I love my life..but being single has its own challenges  too..Being married also has it positive points you can distribute your bills..there is always someone who can help you with your decisions..and it gives you  freedom to start your own family.So like its said every coin has its two side both married and single life has its own ups and downs.So please married ones stop appreciating single-hood...and single people stop appreciating married life..be real face the truth!!

So all I want to say is why do we always end up in talking about marriage..is marriage everything..?? Does no one really appreciate happiness..??

I would rather focus on my happiness and focus on the beauty of life...things which are meant to happen will happen no matter what...!!

Cheers to single hood!!!

oOps m Turning 30!!

OK...So here I am writing almost after a year...while different things kept me busy,I missed writing my blog very much.

So what inspired me in this year long journey...well alot of things..lots of ups and downs too #phew!!(will get back to that in my next posts)..but in all this chaos I was also reminded that I will be soon thirty!!

#OMG 30...so m I sad or happy??...well honestly its just a number!!..but its also a fact that now I have lived almost 1/3 of life #achievement...so whats next...well if I go to vote in my house..or to my friends..or even in my neighborhood..slam the answer will come...MARRIAGE!!!(with mom even imagining me in that bridal dress)..lol..its like they are making me realize that I am actually on a strict timeline..and a one kind of situation which is actually not under my control.#sad.

Well for me being absolutely single..m not that excited to get married..which scares my mom because according to her i have a very limited time for 'make the babies business'..eeeew didn't it sound like some cheap advertisement..#Indian#moms..

OK OK while ignoring all the emotional family dramas..let me focus on why is it an awesome thing to be turning 30!!..here I go...

#1-I am Smarter-Yes if I go back in my early 20's I can recollect all the mistakes,the stupid heartbreak,clashes,the family break up,separation from cousins and financial breakdowns.And in between all these ups and downs finding myself.. aahh i had enough and m glad after learning a hell lot of lessons I am happy that those things are gone and I wont be looking at them back again #smile#smile.




#2-I am Confident-This is the time that I have actually started knowing myself..my strengths and my weaknesses..I feel very much confident in my own skin..least bothering about what other people have to say..I feel confident of who I am..and yes I love myself #kisses#and#hugs#to#me :p

#3-Seen the transformations-Yes I have seen the world transform from emotional to virtual...still remember those days when people went crazy by internet..remember those yahoo chats lol...or when they started using their first big nokia phones..when the only entertainment in phone was the snake game..when children gave up hopscotch for playstations..it feel amazing to know that you have been the witness to this drastic change in our lovely planet.

#4-I am on right track-Today I can say what I really need in my life and what I want to do to get there..though it may take some time to get there..it feel awesome to know that you have overcome alot of hurdles.







#5-I am on point of achieving a milestone-And yes the fact remains the same..I will be 30 in next 3 years..years which will pass away like a fire rocket...this is an achievement that I have lived for so many years and had never ever thought that my life would be like this and now I am  all excited to see what life holds ahead for me..wow it will be surprise wrapped box with a bow on it.

Regardless of what i am feeling.. I am happy for what I am and what I have achieved..and I am sure one day everything will fall in place.

Till then I just want to keep tucking every little achievements..every little happiness in my little pocket of hope.

Cheers to life!!

Kids or Little Rockstars!!!!

Last week while surfing channels on television I came across Junior Master chef Australia...And trust me at least I couldn't believe my eyes that those stunning looking dishes were actually made by those cute lil chefs....they were so so so good.....

I used to watch Masterchef Australia and India on regular basis but this junior one is something hatke  I am totally addicted to it I have not missed any of its episode till now....those lil star and their cooked stuff with fine presentation , techniques and not forgetting their confidence..... not only keeps u glued to the television set but it also makes you wonder that how kids now-a-days actually know what's their aim in life...

Talking about kids well these days they are  far ahead then their age...even when i watch DID Lil Masters i wonder how these kids are able to give perfect expressions and quick answers....

Even in my neighborhood kids are no less, they know how to play guitar...they listen to music on their I-pods...some of them actually ride bikes!!My mom ,a teacher by profession always tell me how 

kids are not only smart these days but they are also innocent at the same time....!!! I myself sometime spent time with kids who comes for tutions at our home... there's a cute lil chirpy girl called Divya who actually knows how to whistle she is just 3.....then there is a kid who can actually dance with hula loop....

Then there is my friends son who is just 4 who wants to become rockstar like ranbir kapoor when he grows up...he actually know all the songs from the movie and not only that he has even grown his hair long to look like him...and he calls himself Jordan..haha he is cute lil rockstar for us though :)

Spending times with these kids makes you realize how things have changed....life has become fast and there is tough competitions even between  kids...but yes the innocence is still there these kids bring lots of positiveness in you.,you even learn from them sometime.....spending time with them or watching them is really worth your quality time!!

Unspoken LOVE!!

I Saw....Your eyes smiled!!
Gentle breeze flew...
Bringing in a light shower of rain in my heart!!
I captured my first romantic moment....when you passed by,
touching my shadow with yours.....
A touch of faith,
A touch of care,
A touch of pure passion....
What is love??? I used to think....
Your first glance brought the meaning of it in my life......
When you smiled I got the reason to do the same...
Co-incidentally when you stood beside me....
I got the opportunity to know how it feels to smell
the fragrance of an innocent angel.....
Every moment spent with you knowing or unknowingly
is unforgettable....
Those lovely moments....
the moments which became lovely because you were in it....
The moments which made me believe in creation of god....
because you are one of it...
Words are less to describe my relationship with you....
A relation where both are stranger.....
but not strangers....
A relation where eyes speak...
not lips...
Where heart instructs...
not brain....
Let this relation continue.....
Let the purity flow....
Let me become pure....
And let the rest be the history of my.....
UNSPOKEN LOVE.......

Its all about Facebook!!!

"Life was much easier when apple and blackberry were just fruits" ..... yes indeed life was much easier... but "Life was much beautiful when we met people face to face ...then on Facebook".

Yes Facebook...the much crucial part of our life now-a-days..be it status updates....poking your friends...visiting your crush's profile...taunting each other...or clicking those like buttons....cant even imagine a day without Facebook!!!

I love Facebook because it has made me reunite with my old buddies....but I also hate it as I am addicted to it and  it unconditionally helps me to waste my time :o  I have experience a lot on fb....I remember once updating my status and one of my ex-friend thinking its about her....well later we got into a war a really big war...I am thankful to that incident as I came to know true colors of people through it and life became much lighter and perfect...as I really dont need people in my life who dont accept me as I am...:p.

Earlier me and my buddies bid farewell to each other by saying "phir kal milte hai" today the sentence has been converted to "aaj raat ko fb pe milte hai"...lol....I remember how my mom used to hate fb...untill.... yesterday she confessed that she too wants an account on it...(no no no plzz no)....so now fb is going to be a family affair in my house..???? .....with status update "hey mom what about pizza party tomorrow ;)"  or lets say "hey mom,there's a pyjama party at friends place...wont be arriving home at night"  and mom commenting on it "where's the unlike button".....Oh god it will be so funny....I hope this never happens.... ;) ;)

So I have decided I will be deleting my fb account and then ultimately no time waste,no mom on my friends list and no pending work.......(hehehehhee just kidding...I wont do that ever)....I love wasting my time or letz just say I love Facebook :)

Before I leave this one is too good to read...

A few days ago my friend was discussing about her fb friends.....(imagine fb was the topic at our night out) she  told me that she even has a fb brother....(did I hear that correct???)...yes she has a fb brother...:) :) now that was something really new for me...I have rakhi brothers but fb brother??? she had even sent him rakhi on fb....I think the day is not far when we will have fb crush..fb enemy...fb girlfriend/boyfriend  lolzz.....

Saguna Baug.....

 Last weekend me and my gang visited a beautiful place not far from our city,named SAGUNA BAUG which was so calm and breathtaking that I couldnt help myself from sharing the experience....as born and  grown up in Mumbai ,this litttle eco friendly resort made me feel the experience of the natural beauty and peace in nature so be it the bullock cart ride,fishing,boating,buffalo ride or swimming in the Ulhas river it was the experience for a lifetime.........I would really suggest people to take a break from this noisy and polluted  city and visit this beautiful place atleast once..... 

                          

lotus....they were awesum...

welcome 2011..

So here we are towards the end of this year 2010......and must say it went  like a bullet train,extremely superfast,
leaving behind all the good and bad memories,in my own word I say a new book with a new chapters will be opened within few hours,so how was my book 2010???

Well it was not that bad,it have thought me many lessons,many thoughts and many many things which I should have done much before,I have learnt to express,and to whom to express,I have learnt to laugh at the situation where in I have shaded so many tears.....and most importantly have learnt about people who backstab you and you dont even realise...Now when I think of those moments,I laugh at them,and sometime cry too....I lost people who were close to me.....have hurt someone who was and is special to me....tried harder for winning my love....felt like slapping and  also killing some....thought of having magic power to bring back all that I have lost...and tried to accept loosing something which I never had....and most importantly it has given some so so so good memories which i will never ever forget in my entire life...

So here were some short listed chapters,which have thought me lessons after taking my live test......but before this year end...let me tell I loved the entire journey of 2010....I hope and also have faith that the year 2011,will bring loads of love,happiness,friendship............and something great which I never expected but hope for.......

atithi devo bhava....

ATITHI DEVO BHAVA....guest is god  ,well we must have learnt this from childhood and ya i do believe in following it...BUT...it seems my dad has taken these words too seriously.....resulting number of guests visiting our residence.The problem doesn't start here,its the surprise of  varieties we get is really irritating (as we hardly know who comes as they are related to dad's business) ...but some experiences are worth describing too..
Here is one of them....recently my dad's friend visited our residence..well he was invited by my dad just few hrs ago from his arrival...it all happened this way..the friend called my dad to inquire about  the address of a wedding venue,near by our residence,which he was going to attend with his entire family...so with seriousness of the words ATITHI DEVO BHAVA.....my dad invited them so that they can have dinner with us..WTF...will the dinner not be served at the wedding.????...but uh my dad...he forced them to come along...poor mom had to cook the lavish dinner...with fish as the friends family loved eating fish...who would'nt if its served FREE!!...the food was cooked and but we could'nt eat...well how can we go ahead without the GUESTS..so what if the rats along with other animals started dancing inside our tummy...At around 1:00am yes 1:00am the guests arrived...who politely said that they cant have food as they  had already eaten their  dinner at the wedding...keeping respect for my dad's invitation they even arrived....OH GOD...so they only drank the cold drinks and moved..HUSH THANK GOD ITS OVER....!!!!...so the lavish fish was saved for us...and we ate dinner at around 1:45am...the time where even the rats in our tummy along with  his friends had gone to sleep....zzzZZZzzz
Its good to be good...but sometimes being too good takes you nowhere...my dad really needs to know this...
I hope he understands this atleast once in his lifetime....
