Jeewan Badalaa, Duniyaan Badalee,

Aaj Muze Apane Hee Dil Me, Ek Nayaa Insaan Milaa

Bhagawaan Bhee Meree Nigaahon Se...

This surrounding world is still a strange place. 

Shaky, disturbed, unfaithful, traitor, unjust, misguiding, unforgiving,  pretentious, liers.

Since I opened the eyes

It's a stranger world....

....untill I close, it will remain same.

Bye Bye IPL

It seeems the match was fixed.. Atleast some players from MI have done it. The way Rayudu played and resisted pollard to take a double says it all.

Stop this nonsense IPL. IPL is spoiling cricket culture in a big way. It's no more a gentlemens game. It's a gamblers, corrupt politician, wealthy bussinessmens and fool spectaters game...

Happy BirthDay Sachin !

Human Clock

Human Clocks. Ticking until they dissolve.
When wishes are not fulfilled or things have not come in your way, is there still a meaning to live on?
Isn't it plain compromise?

I don't know may be I'm searching for an excuse.

The clock ticks and man progresses in time, whether he really wants to or not isnt considered and it's also beyond control.
Day ticks, in human clock in same intervals.
But with different pace... when happy they tick faster, when sad they drag.

Reflecting upon changes is human behavior, adjusting and adapting is
inherent in human nature.
For survival that is utmost important, but we aren't rare or even close to being extinct.
In primal days it was a need to live in society, but it wasnt expected that society will decide how you should live.
Where is the individualism?

I don't know may be I'm searching for an excuse to differ.

Timed ...

This one from nokia works like a pro. Yes it is a pro in its class. After loosing my 3120 classic' now im setteled with this E72.. I was always a critic of these qwerty keybord based phones..like Sachin use to be disinterested in T20 in its intial phase... As he is now enjoying playing T20... So does im enjoying the full keyboard benefits of E72 writting this blog from the device..typing is much easier than expected.

Shortly i will write a full fledged review...as induction session is in progress now.....

From a sweet cozy comfortable den, to a vast crowded corporate jungle...

Chennai Blogger :-)

It has become a habit to start writting if get freeee time waiting for train or plane.
Some 4 years back it was Chennai Airport from where it started and now its Central...
And Chennai is hot favorite place because whenever I visit places  here I get a reason to write some or other thing. Sharp 4 O'clock exam finished and immediately hit the beach near.. Besant nagar.. sitting beside sea is always fulfilling.

After  6pm thought of coming back to guest house but on the way near Mylapore railway station (Tirumailai) saw the same temple that I just glanced  through fence on the arrival day first morning when I got down from bus. Its "Kapaleeswarar Temple"...

It was looking more beautiful because of the lighting and reflection in lake. Had lot time for train so decided to visit there.
Believe me this temple is next to Tirupathi or Madurai temple.
Ancient architecture and inside there are several several ...many small statues all standing in a row.. may be tamil brahmins priests..( w.ref from wiki...they are Nayanars : Shaivite devotional poets from all classes of society.
Mesmerising experience...
Had to peacefully sit there to listen to pure music played by local/temple musicians.
Got up only at 8pm from there... had nice time.

Then rushed to Chennai central .. again its thrill to use local transport...
Got into wrong Bus ....
Got down at Chetpet ...
Walked a lot with heavy luggage and climbed up&down many stairs to get to Chetpet railway station..
Missed two locals..
Got the third local to Chennai central... 9:30 pm.
And NOW... got enough time till 11:00pm to write this Blog and upload all the pics.

Appu Guest House, Near Sanskrit College, Mylapore, Chennai.

This is third time I am staying here... 

The ultimate question is whether I will make it??? Today its CSK Vs DD ... and being in Chennai its almost mandatory to watch Chennai match.. Exam 2moro at 10am... I know the result already but still its in blood to fight till last moment. Hope that the paper setters are also enjoying IPL matches and have set the papers lazily... and also hope that soon after exam professors check the papers when there favorite team is winning IPL match. Then I can say its justified to watch today's match. (and with this waiver I'm taking the oath to be away from internet and blogging and similar sort of activities for next 2 days.. thankfully I also haven't got my camera with me this time otherwise in morning only saw a beautiful lake and temple near Mylapore railway station .. tempted but ok..next time I will definitely take pics of that beautiful place. ) Ciao...

Second cool morning at Bangalore...

Circular reference ...
10-Mar-07: Today... writting this blog early in the morning 7:00AM
15-Mar-10: Today... writting this blog early in the morning 7:00AM


These two blogs have a distinction  coz they are written at 7:00 AM ... Otherwise I don't even brush my teeth at 7 AM :-)
Three years back when I came to Bengaluru, never expected that I will be writting another blog at 7AM. But today morning I got up at 4:30 AM .. another record at Bangalore. Evenmore went out to have a cup of tea, and there ..yes there I saw people rushing to go to there work. I smiled. because I needn't have to rush and go anywhere today. That's why the morning appeared to be pretty cool. 

Relieving Weekend

Day after day and years after year .. memories fade, terabytes of data archived, prices paid and lessons learnt and forgotten too, choices made right or wrong, choices lived and finally standing bare alone... two empty hands.

Life keeps on moving from here to there to somewhere to eternity.

Hell will never get better.

Who the f*** said Marriages are made in Heaven??
Yes, they may have been sort of decided in heaven but they get arranged down rite here. Twisting and turning the natural tides... enough for the ppl in love to forget and move on. No one gets understood without loosing one side. This or That. Where's freedom to live or Is it the cost to be paid for getting this life?  Who cares for love, who cares for a heart..own or others.
It's all bloody bussiness all around. I hv lost all the faith in this shit drama of marriages...

Why "Forrest Gump" is Miles Ahead...

 

This is just because one renowned reviewer in India compared Shah Rukh Khan starrer MNIK with movie "Forrest Gump" (No personal dislike for SRK).

 

Forrest Gump... The simple story of a simpleton’s life. At the end of the film, you see few characters firmly standing in your memories. Mama, Jenny, Lieutenant Dan, Bubba Gump, and Forrest. Forrest’s life unfolds through lives of these characters as well. Whatever he had done is for them. That makes him simple yet affectionate lovable Forrest. Forrest never made a statement, he never did anything for himself, and he never had a sense of doing with him, HE JUST DID. That keeps the movie miles ahead of MNIK.

He ran because he felt like running… and this has kept him miles ahead of others…

Happy V-Day

Make Love .No War.... But the volatile situation... Finish it up once for all. ready to die in a War than to die everyday..in bakery,... on bus stands, at cinema halls..

I love freedom.... eternal..........

We are bound with our limits. Some are Free.

When someone crosses or denies limits, someone says the law is broken, customs are denied. Who decided laws and customs?

We have knit such a foolish mess around us by name of customs that it went unnoticed when it grabbed us.

And we keep screaming I would have done this... I would have done that… who the fuck stopped you?

It’s your well knitted mess that you need to cut across. One has to do this to live peacefully.

It’s understood, loved ones & family members will not accept …they will get hurt… but it’s my life. I have the right to live the way I want.

I shouldn’t surrender the meaning of my existence for someone’s happiness to save face from society.

 

 

Khushi

Aie khuda... ek dil baat kehni thi tumse..

Dil ko deni hai khushi toh aisi de ...ki uske aas pass koi aasu ka katra naa ho..

Agar deni hai ek hasin jindagi toh dua kabool kar, apno se juda na karoge kabhi...

apno ko bhula kar jahan ki khushiyo se mat bhar mere daman ko..

agar itni hi chahat hai muzhse, toh mere mukammal safar ka sathi ada kar muzhe..

Is it Maktub?..or Is it Choices you make becomes your destiny?

Life has been changed. The biggest advantage of living is the living itself.
The more I live, the more I am getting solved and still puzzled like hell. It's my life and it's the life of friends shaping up that makes me think. One life is like one experience or rather a living experiment going on. My life too is an experiment. I am no different than anyone else. Only thing that makes me different at this moment is, Im taking some time out from this experiment to look at it. This may be part of my experiment,and I don't know this fact; but it certainly has an impact on altering the course of my own experiment.

I see people loving each other, I see them getting married to somebody else. Was it destined? or Was it because of there unability to voice there feelings?
Why on earth such painful things happen?  You may start loving the person who comes next in your life--BUT what about the unfinished experiment of love that you left behind you. Dont you think it will someday fire back. Even if it doesnt fire back, dont you feel you have burnt your heart before moving forward?

No one is able to forsee the future but is it really necessarily to punish your present for a better One? Im not going to stop today. Why the hell life is so difficult in this country... Whose marrying whom? The girl and the boy or there families? And what about the feelings you shared with that special someone in your life?

It's just about finishing the duty of getting your daughter married to someone of your status, someone of your daughters status, and somone who belongs to a family of same caste. The sameness kills. Why on earth these parents don't understand what friends can understand? Yes one clean look into the eyes of your loved one's and you get to know what's in there heart. Friends, they know you from just few years but still they can make out, what about your parents, they know you from your birth.  Why do they turn a blind eye to your heart? It's for the sake of saving there face. It's for the sake of living in this society. Yes we are raised from childhood, imbibing the same thing... don't get close to a person of opposite sex coz someday you are going to get married to someone of there choice. Do hell with this custom of arranged marriages. Who said marriages are made in heaven? No they are not, they are arranged.

The Soul Of World

The more I live the more I believe in this.

 

The SOUL of THE WORLD.

Alchemist, introduced me to this word. It’s not just a word. It has become a belief for me.

 

For me; a non-believer, faithless brat, nothing else works other than this soul of world.

 

This soul of world will exist until the last form life is alive on Earth, once its dead ……Nothing.

 

This soul of world balances and rewards and punishes you for your deeds.

It doesn’t keep any accounts it just adds or subtracts …good or bad… goodwill you give to it, goodwill you get back.

Grudge and hate you give to it, they comes back someday and embrace you.

 

The purity is what it demands. The purest forms of emotions it seeks. When you talk to yourself you are actually speaking to it. The emotions are in there purest form, when you are talking to yourself, and that’s when you are pouring them into the soul of world. So the love or hate or any other emotions that you feel for someone reaches to the soul of world. This way you are always connected to this soul of world.

 

Stay well connected to the Soul of Your Own World. It’s listening to you every single millisecond.

 

One Love

One LOVE … surrounds thousands of emotions pointing guns.

Most complicated simplest thing.

It’s Love that binds us together.

One Love…the base of any relation.

It’s the problem and it’s the only solution … Strange but true. :)  

Roje

Roje rakhane se Allah agar khoosh hota …toh aaj jannat ki saari khushiya kadmo me hoti.

Leonidas. Fedora 11 ...The Lion Roars...

Dear All, Enough talking about Freedom for everything ...

Why not experience the freedom while using computers too….. The freedom of OpenSource…

If you are an admirer of Linux you already know what I’m tying to tell here, but if haven’t yet tried Linux, then please read on…

Linux Development has come a long way and still long way to go…
I have been watching the development in Linux distributions from last 6 years…

Now it has come to a satisfactory stage that I should and must recommend you all to give it a try… to see what’s new beyond Windows and to explore full galore of free applications that will surely charm you. This can also prove be a replacement for MS Windows if you learn basics of operating in Linux environment.

Here are the details about latest distro, I tried yesterday on my Dell laptop (Inspiron 1520).

Fedora Core 11

The first look wins your heart…
Install both KDE and GNOME desktop to get the feel of it. (If anyone wants to give it a try, I am ready to help from beginning to get you DVD)

On the first boot after all settings (I Chose GNOME desktop),
Very first thing that grabbed my attention is the sleek desktop interface (with 1440X900 resolution) with applications bar at top and running apps bar at bottom.

Immediately after that the Disk Manager app alerted me for bad sectors on my hard drive… (Pretty good... it’s a freeware@startup came by default)

Fedora 11 has all the device drivers included in release software, these drivers literally haunted me over the past few years and stopped me from writing such an article ;)

This distro managed to provide following drivers without any hassle,

* Display Drivers,

* Sound Card Drivers (ALSA),

* Hardware Detection for multimedia keys on laptop (play, pause, mute buttons etc.),

* Bluetooth drivers (to connect your phone and exchange data),

* Webcam drivers (webcam started immediately upon choosing the right options from webcam application),

* All Windows Drives Auto Mounted (I have a dual boot system. The NTFS was not supported in some older Linux distros),

* Phone modem drivers (This is the height of all… uber cool. It detected my Nokia phone modem connected via CA-101 cable in a minute and I’m connected to Internet in no time. To do the same on Windows Vista I have to install Nokia PC Suite and struggle a lot with USB parent device driver),

* SD card reader on Laptop

With all these necessary drivers installed I did not felt a need to boot in Windows. (Above hardware detection is not same on all machines, but it seems Fedora supports a wide variety of hardware now. Surely, You can give a try and choose to send hardware report to Fedora Org.. may be in next releases they will consider to provide drivers for any new hardware configurations)

Apart from these,

* Lots of office use software, you won’t miss MS Office at all… (Open Office is there for you),

* Ease of switching between KDE and GNOME,

* Multiple Desktops with Comphiz fusion (this feature is there since beginning and its pleasing to use it now, with fully armed Fedora & Comphiz fusion Cube effects, see below pics :-),

* Full set of KDE and GNOME games,

* Significant improvement in Boot time and Shutdown time compared to MS Vista.

Improvements,

Fedora 11 still does not include MP3 codec’s and other codes for playing multimedia. But with a little search on internet one can easily find a free RPM to download.

The sound quality that you get, after installing these codec’s is simply superb and way beyond what we hear on w-i-n-d-o-w-s.

There are hell lots of other features which I can’t tell all about… You have to EXPerience…
With Fedora core 12 on the brink of release we can expect many more features.

With this I must say... There’s no need to hang on to BSOD or keep pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del every now and then…

Try your hand at this full fledged Linux distro.
Without paying a buck, Enjoy the benefits of this free world (in turn, if possible you can donate to OpenSource in terms of software improvements as much as you can:-)

Big Thanks to Rajubhai for providing the iso image.
Please inform other friends also about this wonderful O.S.

For any further information mail me @ ->(mailto:istoremyemails@gmail.com)

Stars & Lines

There was a boy... Rahul, optimistic and always looking forward to make something big out of his life. And there was a girl... Meera, studious and trustworthy. Her eyes were so true that nobody would have dared to tell her a lie. Those eyes would have taken out the truth even from a lier. It was difficult for Rahul to live without seeing those eyes. When he looked into those eyes he lost into them. Yet he was firmly grounded with the realities and his dreams of becoming big, he couldn't stop himself from loving those eyes. Rahul started loving Meera. Though he knew every moment that he is going suffer, when he wouldn't be able to see in those eyes. Still he continued..and one day they parted there ways. The boy remained silent and the joy in his eyes was gone from that day.

Rahul found it difficult to survive without Meera, but he has to...owing to his life, to his dreams... promises that he made to himself. He turned his love in positive energies and made use of every opportunity coming his way to make something big. But deep down he was never able to forget those eyes. Whenever he was alone or whenever he was happy he remembered those eyes. He cried when he was very happy..everybody thought these are tears of happiness, nobody rarely knew that Rahul was missing Meera at that moment. Thus passed the days and nights and Rahul's heart grew fonder each passing day.

Many years passed since Meera left, but Rahul was still the same...still his heart beating faster, whenever he dreamed of looking into Meera's eyes. Rahul knew by this time that, it doesn't matter how much he love someone... his stars and the lines on his hand should also support him. The Destiny. He wasn't believing into any such things but the reality forced him to at least think over it.

Rahul was now at the peak of this career, living his life happily in the thoughts of Meera. Least that he knew that the world is full of surprises. He has made a promise that he will never ever attach his feelings with someone. But the heart is not a suitcase to lock and keep on attic, it beats every second. And every beat needs a electric spark. Heart will not survive in absence of this spark... so does a human. Somewhere here lies the connection of heart and love. The one who ignites the sparks, becomes the love of your life. Isn't it difficult to stop yourself from being attached to a person who makes those sparks fly across your body, mind and soul. Rahul was not aware of these things when he mate Disha. She was like just another girl for him.

Rahul was still holding on to Meera's thoughts, though he knew that she will never come back into his life. Rahul and Disha were in similar circumstances and they were meeting often. Togetherness forms a bond,..nameless... yet strong enough to hold two persons together. When a name is given, it becomes a relation. Rahul was not able to believe whats happening, but the joy that he had lost years before was slowly started to come back in his eyes.

The heart which never allowed him to spare a single though of Meera, now started beating with unknown sparks. Rahul knew that, still his stars were same and even the lines on his hand were same, he also knew the pain of every moment, passed without Meera. So he decided to be true to the relation of friendship and not let the sparks fly across. He though it will be easier to guard against these sparks, but he could barely insulate himlself. Even though he enjoyed every moment spent with Disha, he never though of being a part of Disha's life. Disha was a confident and bold girl. She always knew what she want from life.

When the circumstances ended, Disha and Rahul headed for there lives, Rahul was no longer the same when he mate Disha. At that time when he closed his eyes he could see his heart full of love for Meera. Now when he closes his eyes he could only see Disha, but at this time for a different reason. It's not love all the time, it's the memory of caring togetherness that wasn't allowing Rahul to forget Disha. It's the same togetherness that slowly made Rahul to forget about Meera.

Rahul was alone in his life, but when someone as caring as Disha came in his life, he thanked the same stars and the same lines on his hand. Rahul was free now.
Rahul always knew that Disha will be his best pal.

United We Just Stood For 62 Years... Divided We Will Prosper.

Not just Another Idea. The ground Reality is forcing me to lead this movement of "IGNITED STATES OF INDIA".

The states of India will have there own supreme powers, Above all will rest the New Unified Constitution of India. The states shall get powers of a country and will function separately not seeking any assistance from United whole. The "United India" will be consisting of "IGNITED STATES OF INDIA". Ignited in the sense that, all the states will strive for betterment and upliftment of the farmers and people who earn less wages (I am not calling anyone "poor" that is a bad word. Its just that they are not able to earn wages to fulfil there basic needs because of several reasons...and we are partly responsible for them)... This is the very first priority. Excellence will follow.

D-E-S-T-i-N-Y bloody hell

not a pessimistic take on destiny..but a true life, blood pumping open heart surgery. Is there any other way to prove my innocence? why kp keeps certain distance from me. I have come this long and now im completely lost. totally freaked out... A distance of just 2 feet is a distance of thousand miles. yes. ripped apart are the beautiful blossoming feelings. severely damaged ..blood strained. The relation of friendship that could have failed to achieve by any one else...has failed me. I failed. could have stayed here..its totally up to me... but now Im moving somewhere... like im loosing everything..empty hearted. I dunno. I am leaving the place. leaving behind everything...

If things aren't working...they will never. me or you, are not machines to repair and again put to work. destiny.... bloody hell.... Never though i had to ......

I AM SORRY. I FAILED TO UNDERSTAND YOUR Rules.. Sorry K.P.

someday you will understand the meaning these lines.

निकलना खुल्द से आदम का सुनते आए थे लेकिन
बहुत बे-आबरू होकर तेरे कुचे से हम निकले।

BIG Exam!

BIG Exam!

 

Recently I have come across and realized about a weird exam, let me share the details of this unique kind of exam. You will also be surprised as me, to know about it.

 

It goes like this, like every game has its own rules, this exam also has its own bizarre rules. TaKe it easy.. It's fun sometimes :) We get enrolled for a basic learning course when we just appear at the exam center. It's strange. But this exam is little different from other exams (I already told you). The course begins the moment you arrive at the venue, and until the course ends you have to be at the exam center. Most of the learning happens at the exam center sometimes you interact with other candidates and sometimes you have to sit alone and figure out the syllabus for yourself, or sometimes you just find a partner to ease out your learning.

 

And the most astonishing fact of this exam is, you never know without a slightest doubt, when will be your surprise test. Believe me, every now or then- big or small but there will be surprise tests all around. Whether you are prepared or not, whether the questions are out of syllabus or not. They don’t care. They simply throw these surprise tests at you. Don’t take these tests lightly, even if they just appear to fall on you... In the Final, output of each and every, small or big test is counted.  

 

Does it sound familiar to you… Scary or funny or just plain simple suffering.

 

 

How much special are WE !

closing ...

bit by bit...
hour by hour...
minute by minute...
second by second...

something is shutting down...
DOORS closing all the way.

no light coming in...
not even a single lucky ray of hope..
not able to escape the total eclipse..

no questions no answers awaiting..
no moment seek the presence as well.
Straight to the exceptions and eliminations.
no sorry no thank you.

What freedom means to me...

Mostly today we will roam around to see the Garden City, many of my friends are coming here for the first time... so they want to take a glimpse at the Bangalore City.

Then today we will leave for Mercara, Madikeri, Coorg (all these three names refer to one place only called as Kodagu ;) ) So tommorow full day at Madikeri.

And then Big Bash tommorrow night at Coorg :)... and we will leave Mercara on 26th early morning. Happy Republic Day to all ...in advance. I may not be in my senses on 26th :)

Hmmmm then back to bangalore on 26th by 6pm.. But before that plan is to visit Golden temple and Palace at Mysore.

Lets see how the plan goes... there may be nice surprises.. good ones :-)

That's true !!!

People man people ha ha ha... When you see the things from a distance you laugh at them , when you are a part of it ..someone seeing you from distance laughs at you … Amazing isn't it... sometime we are laughing at someone and, sometimes we become the reason for others to laugh at us. The game continues like this ..switching the sides. Giving and receiving. Watch out for a danger, someone said - relationships works best only when they are balanced. Don't just hold on for too long until you become vulnerable to the threat of being taken for granted. This is the point where the relationship ends. So it's better not to take things seriously until you become a priority and not just an option.
Optimism and positivism are sometimes words for cowards who dare not to challenge the situation and keeps continuing with it, rollback is necessary when going gets tough. You can't change someone's mind if he/she doesn't like you. Rollback. You are not alone in this world. There are endless possibilities if you break your shell and come out. And even the time will not be the same. No matter people like you or not, remember only one thing ... Honesty, Trust, and Truthfulness can only take you to where you want to reach. Hold on to these things and see the difference.

How are you doing?

To
My Dear Life,

Its been long time I'm writing to you, forgive me for that, but not even a single moment I forgot you. You were always there teaching me lessons, sometimes I learnt sometimes I just ignored you. I am thankful to you, at every decision making point you always gave me choice. I chose one option and then discovered you shaping up my career and personal life.
Now I am again standing at a point where I need your help. But this time you are not presenting me a choice, instead what I see now is just a one-way leading to a definite defeat. Why should I be the cause to defeat you. So I request you to bear with me for sometime. We will sail through these disturbed waters and we will be winner all the way.

Your Sincerely,
Manish :-)

The Year 2009 !

First post of the year 2009.

First 5 days I spent with friends.
This day I did not go to office. Not feeling like going to work. No one is friend there except very few.
This year will see lot of ups and downs. This is my internal feeling. And whenever I feel like this its because of some reason, which is also unknown to me. But its horrible truth that if I have got such a feeling, it is sad but true that it will become a fact soon :(( I hope nothing happens.

My hearty welcome to 2009, may this year go as early as possible.

So little to spend :)

Fake Fake Fake... fake smiles fake care fake friend... I hate.

Nature has no Mercy...

Believe me.... world does not move taking you into consideration, you have to move on with the world. Expectations from someone causes the greatest destruction of mental peace, I don't want to become weak. I had learned my lessons from life but the problem is, it keeps on teaching and never stops... why someone be born so mean that no one wants to adore him as a friend.

Nature has no Mercy...

Believe me.... world does not move taking you into consideration, you have to move on with the world.

Alll I need is to be freeeeeeeeee

Let me soar high, let me shade the thoughts that characterizes a normal average person, let me break the shackles of vicious loop that captures the mind and brain, let me focus on the ultimate dreams, I am alive for.

Jealousy mars happiness

Moon is away and stars tooo. Miles to go before I sleep, Miles to go.

At Vienna Airport now...

The cargo F*** me like anything... Mannnnn could you imagine paying 600 Euros... a little more than 40000Rs for 20 kg extra luggage... I did it.. What to do??

I paid 600 Euros for 20 kg (30 euro / kg) to carry back home all the souvenirs, clothes and most important the chocolates... Big thanks to credit card tat I carry... I would not have been able to achieve this feat w/o a credit card. Once decided to choose between wht to take back and what not?? coz the clothes that im taking back were not costly as much im paying for there weight !!!!

But noooooooo..... i dint want to throw anything...so decided to pay the full putting a big stone over money mind. :(((

Money comes and goes... i will earn more n more to compensate this foolish loss. If I had paid a little attention towards cargo and my total baggage i could have saved at least 50% of the total.

Next 18th i will be in Bangalore

18th Oct 2008... Life's Completely changed in this one year.
something accomplished. I have forgotten her completely, and now I wont let anyone play around with me, my feelings emotions and my love. It's not that damn easy to forget. I wont let it happen second time... instead I will die.

Google Strike or Dictatorship of Google . Google Sucks... for doing this .

I was expecting something like this since the inception of Chrome..the new Google browser. The day or moment really came today.

What if Google provides its services to only Google Chrome users ??? and not in other browser. thinkkkkkkk...

Each computer user is hooked to Google by some or the other way. Orkut, Blogger, Gmail, Google Code, Google Translator, Picasa and what not... One cannot pass time without using one of these application/services. Today i really faced this problem as usual came from office, and opened firefox and logged in into gmail.... wht no response "Waiting...for gmail" from sooo long... I got pissed off... thought time to reinstall firefox..but TOI and wiki were opening ..felt strange. then obviously tried IE... same problem.. Not even Google Search was working in firefox and IE. Then got the clue..what it could be ...

I had already installed chrome since the day it was made available.. thought I will give it a try to prove my point and TO MY HORROR < IM WRITING THIS BLOG AT THIS TIME USING GOOGLE CHROME BROWSER >. This is only second time I am using Chrome. Its not a coincidence or problem with my setup... This is a well planned Google trial. It's been more than 20 mins since im watching this now... all Google services working instantly fine in Chrome... but "waiting" in firefox and IE. Isn't this approach reminds you of Dictatorship... Yes the more we belong on Google services the more we will face Dictatorship of Google.

Chrome is at present available for windows and is open source... but I guess Google will be soon launching an all OS compatible Chrome. I can even write one browser on my own, but what if Google has a tech-know-how to know the browser type before authenticating any service requests from Google servers.. the catch lies there.

Going one step further, if tomorrow Google launches a new OS, and they stop supporting open source and charge for everything ! and imagine if Google OS is mandatory if one wants to use all Google services... Are to biting your nails or shivering at this idea !!! Anything can happen... After all they have tamed the web, internet and a vast huge set of net users worldwide. That's why I am a strong supporter of Open Source and Free Software Foundation. No harm in growing together.

Though it may be some problem with my machine, or just so that Murphy is on my side today... or may be just because my head is aching.. BUT still.. Just Imagine... if one day... What if Google decides something evil like this... and continues it's strike in all available popular browsers. then it's a great big Challenge before Microsoft and the open source community... anyway I have learned how to use Chrome and also it's free to download ;-)

At the core of all this free services, Google has it's hidden commercial interests. Have you ever thought how the advertisements in your Inbox are relevant to your mood/travel plan/shopping decisions etc. It's all scanning through your mails/conversations/likes/interests/gossips and providing suitable ads, generating revenues for Google.

Ever wondered, how the junk mails that use to come from bot like addresses are now bearing your best friends names or the ones from whom you read every mail , message or frequently keep in touch. You cant resist ti immediately click open the mail and read the contents only to know its an advertisement. Google is doing at it's best in getting every bit of information about you to make them salable to the ads/marketing world. AND who is at the receiving end. You & Me.

Guys and girls think many times whether you really need to depend so much on this online world. It's a sheer compromise of personal privacy and we can't fathom upto what extent it can be exploited.

Be Damn Careful !

Ciao.

what's happiness.. i guess i know :-)

What makes me feel good nowadays is im still breathing. No craziness but the art of living evolves as one grows older. whether u get what you want or loose, for sure you learn a lesson worth carrying forward. One damn crazy idea is to live freely. Neutralize the needs, neutralize the expectations ...be a child and look around. When you see at grown ups as a child, you see a life. Every single different person, carries a life with him... a story different from anyone else's.

Sometimes the faces are happy, sometimes longing, sometimes searching, and some are like me... perfectly neutral at that moment and observing the "a small part" of the most amazing drama's moving around. Is it so easy to call it a Drama... Well no but don't take it seriously, when you look back in your own life you will find many moments you couldn't stop laughing over your behavior.

Some people free themselves with a little intake of Alcohol.. :-) I will appreciate them. Its good to be bound by some rules... but it's best to loose yourself for sometime and become neutral. Intoxication works best too loose the worldly sorrows for some moments and go close to ones subconscious mind. its a paradox but its very much true... One looses the consciousness but awakes in a different world where he is in his own boots and still completely naked !!! Sounds crazy but its true. ;-)

It's not intoxication always, but sometimes it's a feeling of happiness that makes you feel exactly the same. It's a feeling when you know that someone loves you and care for you. You get equally unconscious in your world with this feel good feeling.

Wall - E Full 5 stars to this movie *****

What humans are made up of.... watch this movie.. machines will teach you.

Im torned between Me and Myself.

Everyone except one or two has seen Myself...
The real Me is know to me and only to those very few 2 or 3 who had spent time with Me.

Me:
is soft, emotional, sensitive

Myself:
is strong, practical, brainy.

Now the Me is getting often revealed before Myself. Myself is on the verge of breaking down into pieces. This is not a change to welcome but to fight against the invading Me on Myself.

The real big challege before Me is to somehow survive Myself...

Rimzhim gire sawan...

main aur meri tanhai aksar yeh batein karte hai.. yu hota toh kaisa hota...

Open Prison ... sometimes Hildesheim is like that.

No government has arrested me, I am not a criminal.
Then why am I feeling like I am being punished for something.

Whats the reason? When I went out of my house after one and half day long... neither the mild breeze was exhilarating nor the sunny weather, and evermore the fresh air also couldn't satisfy my breath. I wanted to scream loudly, I can't go back to my friend who suffered a loss. Whats Life??? I cant answer. It makes you weep, it makes you scream... it makes me realize sometimes that I am hopeless... It reminds me that I am in open prison. YES when life punishes someone he is send to a open prison.
No walls, no guards, no locks, no handcuffs... but the legs don't want to go out, the tongue becomes tasteless, the eyes no longer want to see the sunlight and the hands... they are spread wide open asking for something which may not come back again once gone.

hopes time courage ... thats what is required to break this open prison.

Once upon a time ...

There was a boy...

He was strong as rock,
He knew how to stand alone against whole system,
He was courageous and in love with solitude,
He was in complete harmony with life knowing the ultimate truth.

The boy is changed now,

He is sentimental,
He is emotional,
He cries often,
He needs support,
He fears loneliness,
Though he still knows the ultimate truth but now he is restless to live before he...

He is completely changed.

61st Indian Independence Day ... in Hildesheim

Independence Day

An encounter with Life at Hildesheim

The life goes on and on, what it leaves behind is the trail of unforgettable memories. The true sense of living is beyond explanation but the essence can be surely preserved in authentic words.

This encounter with life may bring tears to those who left Hildesheim when they had got there best friends here, in a way they had seen a whole new world with new eyes.

I was ever interested to come to this place but never thought that it will be so tough to really pack n go. The day when I got the call to go, cried in office toilet thinking I am going to loose the whole year from my life. A place far away…. no friends, leaving my parents alone here. Then friends boosted the morale saying go and see the world it's a rewarding experience. Also the first time excitement was backing my decision to leave India and land in a foreign country.

The Plane landed on foreign land in a cold climate, the days n nights were different here than India. First day to office.. remarkable …I thought I will sleep and spend day at home.. but the foreign silence was killing, immediately got up and went to office. and when I was returning back, saw a girl in saree at bus stop... totally amazed… was thinking Boschlers kept Indian ness alive here in Germany !!!
Who she might be? Later I came to know that it was her birthday that day. She became my good friend. We were sailing in same boat...A year long deputation.
any guesses who is she? Deeps.. One of my best friend.

When the bus stopped I got down somewhere and gosh … I forgot my house, first day, 11 pm. Where to go?. Trial and error and finally found the home.

I was wondering what these people are made up of, they are disciplined, they progressed so ahead of world despite of this strange adverse climate.

Hmmm there were many changes waiting to accommodate me.
The crook that never bothered what goes inside kitchen, who never bothered to prepare anything for him, learned what is happiness when he prepared food in his kitchen for his friends. That's life. The happiness is in living and sharing and not allowing yourself to escape into loneliness and shy away from sharing the moments which one can cherish for whole life.

I have spent one best year of my life here. The feeling of loosing a year has long back left behind and …the learning from life what I gained in this year is simply more than a year. Here I stand Separate, Alone, Strong, Self sustaining.

(... to be continued)

Before I end up being a part of crowd,

In the end it says "Thoda hai thode ki jaroorat hai" Zindagi phir bhi yaha Khoobsurat hai"

Life is nothing but something I dunno…

Life is nothing but interpretation

Life is nothing but enjoyment

Life is nothing but meeting people

Life is nothing but pain

Life is nothing but fulfilling desires

Life is nothing but surviving the odds

Life is nothing but caring for everyone

Life is nothing but getting attached

Life is nothing but being unattached

Life is nothing but missing someone

Life is nothing but forgiving the mistakes

Life is nothing but forgetting the mistakes

Life is nothing but moving forward

Life is nothing but loving someone

Life is nothing but departing from someone

Life is nothing but unexpected happenings

Life is nothing but Expression of Joy

Life is nothing but preserving the childhood innocence.

{more to be added here gradually}

Life is nothing but .....
Life is nothing but Life
{ Each Line is a lesson L.I.F.E. has taught me, I will keep on learning -- mmk }

Show me the meaning….

Tell me what’s the worst disease in this world

Cancer

AIDS



neh.............................................................love



A cancer patient knows when is he going to die, he has those many days left to enjoy life.

But a lovelorn person, he doesn’t know when he is going to die. And his plight is he can’t live anymore.



A patient can come out of illness and enjoy ...but coming out is not possible when someone is caught in love.

What’s in life for such a loser? Infinite wait until he meets his end and a long suffering if it takes long.

Paradise lost ...

Pathar dil insaan Pathar dil shamshan ...
Pathar ke jab hote dil ... kyu jeeta marta insaan.

Whats the fate if we are fighting against each other
everytime whenever the nation is struck with bomb blasts
I left paralysed and my mind numb.

Amresh Sawant who died in mumabai serial blasts was one such victim a friend of my friend. What on earth makes us go insane... money, politics, power... is it more valuable than life???

the modesty and the goodness

A new ruthless DAWN
