I feel lost...

So many thoughts now-a-days just come and go... and with this busy schedule of my day, I keep forgetting what had come to my mind. :(

Well, I guess I am not trying hard to find some time for blogging... for jotting down my thoughts and because of this only I guess I feel lost at times...

I have watched some good movies recently... and I feel like writing my views about the movies... about how I enjoyed those and why and what...

Yeah... that should be good enough to re-start/invent/discover my writing abilities...

Wish me luck!!

KA 01 F 3926

This is a Volvo bus in Bangalore - that throws smoke at the drivers behind it like anything... The black smokes are enough make those drivers sick.

Can't believe the BMTC says take a bus ride than traveling in your vehicle. And allows such buses - causing pollution - to still go around the city. May be they know that they are causing pollution enough and thus its better to stay inside the bus than drive your own vehicle.

Do something about these polluting buses, BMTC!!

Common (wo)men's fashion show!!

Have you ever been to a common men's fashion show?

No!!

I don't believe it. If you are not a star / a celebrity - then you are a part of the common men's fashion show. If you are a poor person - who I am sure you are not; you won't be reading my blog post here otherwise - then you may not be a part of the show.

Every middle class and yeah sometime high class too, is a part of this fashion show. The audiences of the show have some of their members as part of this show.

Come on! Guess, guess, guess...

OK, I give you a clue - It's a hit show on weekends.

Ok, ok... I give you another clue - It's a super hit show during holidays - in almost every mall.

Are you able to guess now?

I hope so... Alright, time to disclose the secret.

The common men's fashion show happens in front of all the trial rooms, in the trial sections. Mostly, it happens with women. They would go in with a whole set of clothes - a whole wardrobe, to be precise; Try one by one. They come out wearing each dress one by one and show it to their partner. The partner could be their roommates, boyfriend, husband and colleagues. 99% of the women go for others' opinion, besides their own. And the fun part is they would be communicating it mostly through non-verbal body-language. And not only the shopping partner but the whole army of men would be looking all those women from outside the trial area. Men! - They don't have the privilege to go near the trial rooms, unless there is a single trial room in the middle of the floor.

About men taking part in the show as models, rarely does someone come out to show it to the partner (especially to ladies). They decide for themselves. And if someone does come out then it's only because they want to avoid arguments with the ladies, like my husband does :).

Yeah, there are exceptions and those exceptions are for those guys who are hesitant to buy something and are confused about whether they will really look good in it. They need some approvals in the form of support and sincere comments, which increases their self confidence.

Also, there's one more category where the guy has a little feminine characteristic in him and they are the ones who have many girls as just his friends and he needs all their approval before buying anything. Whatever these girls ask him to buy he buys. Loll.

So, the men's fashion show is not much popular as compared to the women's - never seen any such show of men. If you watch they do let me know your findings, observations!!

If you want to watch one, go to the big malls in the weekend. Lights on!! Music on!! Enjoy the show with the A/C on!!

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder...

The best and most beautiful things in life cannot be seen, not touched, but are felt in the heart.

~ Helen Keller

I feel so relaxed when I look at the sea... Whenever I see a beautiful picture with the sea in it's background, I feel so joyous and delighted.

This picture (taken from Michelle Sedas's blog) gave that feeling... So, thought of keeping it in my blog too...

And yeah, whenever I see a beautiful sea, I recall Andamaan Island every time; The only sea beaches me and my husband enjoyed together.

My baby completed 9 months old today!!

upper two full teeth... lower two budding teeth... saying, "Nee nee... naa naa... maa maa... baa baa... paa paa... aaajaa... aaa dae...", fast crawling like a small baby elephant,  standing up on his own and then falling down, grabbing everything, chewing everything, him getting excited when he sees me in the evening, looking at the face and it's features, pulling hair - nose - ear - chains, crawling around the entire house, climbing up to the bathroom, trying to climb the cot, pulling every possible wire that comes to his reach, shouting at others, blabbering things when someone is talking over phone, scolding others if they don't follow the instructions to take him wherever he wants them to take, waking up everyone after he wakes up, long hairs, long but thin body, learning to immitate very fast, cunning, suspecting  peoples' presence even though they hide themselves, swift in recognising voices and smell, recognising me only when he sees my face (ofcourse now he recognises me by seeing just my feet too), smiling when he sees me and his father, laughing when we tickle him, smiling-laughing-jumping when he listens to rhymes from Manju....; these describe my baby.

How does God look like?? - Ask a Blind person

I was wondering yesterday, how many God and Goddess idles we have through out the world!! For every country, every state, every village, every religion... we have so many shapes and colors or God.

When I was kid I was told by our teachers and books that there is no shape of God. It's just the curious minds of people who give shape to thee and form different idles.

I always wonder who saw how Lord Krishna, Lord Shiva or any other God/Goddess look like? Is there any proof of that?

Then I recollected OMG (Oh My God!!) movie. Lord Krishna in Suit!! Nice movie...

Then this sudden thought came to my mind - we can see, so we formed the shapes of God. How about the blinds? They can't see anything - so for them how does God look like?

Does it ring a bell in your mind?? hmm... it did in mine. It's the blinds who can actually see the God!! For them there is no pre-assumptions. For them everything is dark. They do not know what does color mean. The color that they live their life in is only one color and we refer that as black. So, for them God would be shapeless. That's what God actually is - Right!!

May be that darkness is God for them!!

The next time I meet a blind person, I am gonna ask this question to her/him.

"Who is God for you and what does thee look like??"

Enjoying the cooler shades of tree..

Last to last sunday I made a visit to my friend's house around 10 AM, to whitefield area. It's the place where we stayed when I landed in Bangalore from Hyderabad. So, I have a soft corner for the area and the people there. I used to enjoy the ride from Kundahalli signal to Whitefield through Varthur road... Even though my house was 19 KMs from my office. However, somehow all the traffic exhaustion kind of got diluted on that patch of road. With cultivation fields on both side of the road, the brushing of wind on the face, used to lift my spirit. We left that house since, it was far off and the cold weather resulted in severe health issues in me. Also, baby planning was becoming a big issue after travelling for 18 KMs to and 20 KMs fro in bike.

That day I kind of relived the same experience. And it was way better this time since I took the road that connects Panathur and Varthur village. From the Varthur signal I took right to go towards Whitefield.

I could enjoy the long stretch of green fields and the shades of trees. Honestly, I loved the shade of the trees. The shade was cooler than that of A/C effect. The whole way I drove slow and enjoyed longer time under tree shades. Even though it was hot outside, it was much much cooler under the tree shade. I also, took a curry leave plant from road side.

Overall, it was a nice experince after a long time.

If you stay near Bellandur and want to go to Whitefield try the Panathur's connecting road... You will feel like you are in some cool and calm, relaxed village.

Belated "Happy Womens' day!!" to all the ladies out there.

Well, I wished my dear ladies on time. However, forgot to wish to my female blog readers and some of the friends I have made online through the world of blogs and the socialising websites. I even forgot to wish my dear quillers. Excuse me for that.

So... "Wish you a prosperous and successful year ahead!! Happy Womens' day!!"

Honestly, didn't have time to be online for a while. I am again learning new things. Learning... learning... learning. It fulfills my zest for new challenges.

There's more... wait till next month 8th... 8th Apr. 2013!!!

Surprise... will tell you when the day comes...

Till then keep guessing what's coming!!

तेरे सपने... तेरी उड़ान (Tere Sapne... Teri Udaan)

दूर आस्मान पऱ जब तूम उड़ान भर रहि थि।
मेरा मन पिन्जरेसे  निकल तेरे बाँहोंसे लिपट रहि थि।।

तूमसे मिलके दिशाओं में एक अप्नेपन कि मेहेक उट्ठी हे।
ऐसा लगा जैसे मेरा अस्थित्व तुमसे हि बना है।।

तेरि अदा कुछ अलग तो नहिं हे, फिर भि खाश लगति है।
सब थमसा  जाता हे जब जब तू पास से गुज़रती है।।

ज़िन्दगी को खुलके जिनेकि तेरि जो चाह हे।
मेरे दिल मैं वोह खाश जगाह बना चुकि है।।

तेरी आँखों मैं वोह जो हंसी रेहती है, कुछ बात है।
जो तेरे दिलसे निकल जुबां पर आना चाहती हे।।

तुम मेरी हो नहीं सकती ये बात मालूम मुझे नहीं है।
मानों या न मानों जोंदगी तुम बिन लगती बेजान सी हे।। 

दुनिया वालोंको परे कर दिया मैंने इस प्यार को समझने से।
तुम समझोगी, ऐसी कोई आस नहीं राखी है मैंने तुमसे।।

तुम्हे कोई चोट पहुंचे, ये मैं सह नहीं सकता।
तुम्हारे आँखों मैं फिर कभी आँसू आये, ये मैं देख नहीं सकता।।

इन चार दीवारों मैं उजाले की जो एक किरण आती है।
उसमे तुम्हारी यादों की मेहेक आती हे।।

मौत अपने गोदी मैं बुलाने से पहले एक दिवस तेरे संग गुजारना चाहूँगा।
हर जनम मैं तुझे अपने जीबन संगिनी के रूपमें पाने की आश रखूंगा।।

हर मौसम मैं तेरा रूप मैं ढूंडता रेहता हूँ।
हर रंग मैं तेरी खुबसुरती देखता रेहता हूँ।।

तुम्हारे लिए जीवन जाये तो जाये।
तुम्हारा सपना कोई तोड़ न पाए।।

अपनी उड़ान ज़रूर भरना, येही हर क्षण प्रार्थना  करता हूँ।
दूर आस्मानमें उड़ान लेती हुई तुम्हे देखना चाहता हूँ।।

तेरे सपने, तेरी उड़ान। और क्या चाहिए। कुछ भी तो नहिं।




This poetry I have been inspired by some of my friends' and their love for each other...

Hope you like it...

Thought for the day - brings a smile on my face

"You might not be able to solve the world's problems, but when you help even one person, you become a part of the solution."

This is the quote I have for February 26 on my desk's daily quotes calendar.

I felt so good when I read this. Most of the time I help people who do not even bother to recognise my efforts. And there are times when there are good people who recognise my effort. These different people sometimes make me feel, "why do I do help people, or work for them who just take the help and get their requirements fulfilled, but do not even say a thank you?"

However, this quote really brought a smile on my face and is an answer to that question.

Click - and a day's gone

Everyday now goes just like that. 'Click' - a day's gone. 'Click' - another day's gone. 'Click', 'Click', 'Click' - my day's are passing just like that and I a'm missing my baby's growth everyday. However, I'm at peace now that my mom's back and we have Manju to take care of baby. Even Saturday and Sundays I'm not supposed to come infront of baby. I just see him through the corner of the door screens. He smells my presence these days and cries suspecting my presence. Whene I'm out he's all happy and playful. But the moment I eneter the house he suspects me, feels my presence and wants to search the whole house. Thus, I hide in balcony and in bathrooms. It's only evening when I show myself to him and he immediately grabs me, holds myneck in both his arms, keeps his head over my shoulder and goes some other world, I guess. He doesn't look at anyone. Doesn't say anything. Just holds himself tight against me and keeps quite. Occassionally he would take off his head and look at my face and then again keep his head against my shoulder and go to his world. He wouldn't listen to anyone then. He just wants me and my attention. He won't let me do anything else other than play with him and talk to him. Sometimes he lets me go and do something else. Not always. He has brought a whole new world to us...

I love you baby...

Living the thoughts... makes me feel proud

"There are no accidents... Whatever happens, happens for a reason..."

I used to believe these statements so much when I was a kid; much before Kung Fu Panda movie released or was thought of. And I believed these statements so much till I got my job. After that I don't why but I kind of forgot these thoughts and got busy with the complexity of the world.

It's been 6 years that I never recollected these set of words. It recent years that I started recollecting my past, started visiting some part of my memories and realised how long I have been away from these good thoughts.

Now, I strive to recollect these words again and inculcate them in my life. Yeah... I keep forgetting from time to time as I keep myself busy with my responsibilities. However, there are times when I feel good and proud when I realise living these sentences. It has helped me move out from failures and keep progressing.

Thanks Good Lord!!

Show offs...

People who say that others are showing off and that he/she is overconfident are themselves overconfident and show offs...

Shame on those who...

When a child is born the parents feel like they are up in the air floating around.
When the same child grows and gets married the parents think their life is fulfilled with all happiness and they feel they are in heaven.
When the same child is in problem the parents get themselves in problem.
When the same child gives mental torture to his parents they feel they should die instantly and some even die of heart attack.

Parents do so much for their kids... and we kids do nothing for them.
Shame on those who take their parents for granted.

If you make someone cry and put someone in pain for nothing... remember, you too would be in pain and would cry someday.

Remember you too would become parent one day... and that day all you will do is repent and be ashamed off.

God is watching...
