The Match that was Nuts...

Now Time: 11:47 PM
Prediction was about Sachin hitting a century before match between Indian & England began at around 2:30 PM....
It was a hairsplitting, nailbitting, nerve wrecking TIE.

Pune ... Introspection

Bangalore is better in terms of traffic discipline.
Pune people are senseless drivers. Number of accidents are more here.
Below things are getting on to my nerves whenever I'm going out.


  • Nobody here bother to wear a helmet.
  • U turn can be taken at any intersection.
  • Anyone can barge into road from anywhere without even seeing who is driving in front.
  • Honking horns is very common here. Even two wheelers have truck horns. No sound control.
  • Driving in opposite direction is very common practice. Why take long route???
  • Lane?? What is it? We Puneites have never heard of something like that.


Apart from this all the property rates have skyrocketed in all major IT areas like Magarpatta City and Hinjewadi. 1 BHK for 10 K rent. Six years before I wasn't even earning that much per month.

Pune people still look at Outsider IT people with disguise and talk about them not so nicely. For them the reasons for all the dearness is IT. Come on.. you have to accept the truth. Upto some extent Bangalorians have accepted this fact.

& most serious and severe problem is DUST and Pollution in Pune.
Since the time I came here, Im suffering from this Dust problem.Wherever you go in these developing areas  you find not so good roads and all dust getting mixed with pollution and getting sucked into your lungs/eyes and hair. Dryness of skin and hair is major problem as well. It took 10/15 days to fight with this problem. The best solution I got is to wear helmet (which is anyway I follow compulsorily ) and apply a cream from Himalaya products. One problem was sorted out... Also less dust goes to your lungs if your helmet is On. But still I'm falling pray to this throat infections and dry cough originating from dust allergies. That is precisely the reason why I have taken leave today and sitting idly and writing this blog.
The Dust and pollution is unbearable. I must have to wear that pollution mask, drink hot water and wear warm clothes in that stubborn office AC.

Some thoughts are still boiling but not to the temperature to spill out of brain and fall on this blog. So keep watching.

P.S. After all the negatives, the only good thing about Pune is attached in Pic, which can make anyone outsider Jealous :))

If ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good.

Macarena.......................
Yeh Saali Zindagi............
Macarena.......................
Each generation has there own legends and followers. We feel we are the  most blessed one's to have seen Sachin batting, AB acting, Lataji singing, Michael Jackson performing, Bolt sprinting, Federer on court, Schumi racing, Murali bowling, Bieber rising, Ambanis reigning, Buffett having Buffett, Windows opening money doors...

Then why we are hogging on to them.


People come and go. Some of them exploit there talent and win. Some loose and still make examples.
Some watch others and stay where they are. They don't want to take risks.


The Legends of one generation inspire the people of other.


The most common thing in between them is, Normal people when believe in themselves and act on there instincts and consistently follow what they are doing with all there heart, they transform themselves into The Legends. Winning becomes a habit. It was very well said. The harder I worked the luckier I got.


P.S. The title of this post is not at all related to the content. Ciao.

Career - Life - Profit - Loss

Going from the varied experiences in professional career, I have did many mistakes but every time I learned from them. I never took my side and pushed myself into dangers every now and then. I may have been the reason for someone's worries and profit or loss.

Today introspecting the past..I see nearly 7 years gone in this jargon.

FEB 7. Important day in my Life.

Feb 7, 2005 -> Took a a very harsh decision to quit from my first Employer, purely on the grounds of high morality.

Feb 7, 2011-> Again back to join another company in Pune. Hope this will also prove to be one of the best decisions.

Trivia : February 7, 1804 is Birth date of John Deere.

The canal where we used to go cycling and sit for hours and hours every evening..

And the steps of that stadium where group of friends use to sit and giggle untill it's dark.

Aaj sarv kahi aahe je tevha mublak navhte, pan ya jaga aaj harvalya aahet...

Karoge yaad toh har baat ...

Inn ........ ki koi kimat na hogi,
na jahan bhar ki khushiya na dildaro ki sohbat hogi..
kuch mitti ke ghado me pyaas ta umr hogi..
Karoge yaad toh har baat ...

pal sare beet jayenge,
main  main na rahunga
tum tum na rahogi..
kisi waqt kisi mod paar
zindagi yeh sawal puchegi,
kya main isi tarah zakhmi hoti rahungi?
Karoge yaad toh har baat ...

kuch hasin palo ki kimat yeh zindagi
hasne muskarane ke sud ke sath,
aur kitno salo tak yeh karz chukau...
isi hisab me zindagi gujar jayegiKaroge yaad toh har baat ...

Now What?

Being there done that.

Is this the story of us all.
Have I made it? Have I reached the sky, touched the stars and rocketed to Mars?
Have I lived?  Being there done that.

How you measure me? tell me..
You count my successes, when I fail, you say the boy will rise up he has got guts.
What if I don't rise up. You say my approach is wrong. You say I have got Attitude.

What if I would have never showed up to you. I would have still existed somewhere.

I have not mate all the living buddies still they exist allover and live there dreams.
What I am made up of? what keeps me going?

It doesn't make any difference to me whether you know me or whether I know you.
What's the need? You were living your way and I was on my way.
Then why I mate you?

No matter, we mate.
Time is all I have to give to you. If I am giving it to you you have become part of my life.
What I received, when I was born is -Life.
That's my most precious attribute. Without that I am nothing.
It's a count of breaths plotted against time. Breaths on X and Time on Y.
Time is infinite since the beginning of universe, but the breaths that are going to be plotted against it are limited. So the time that we have is most, "The most" valuable thing I or you have.
Your existence on this planet was of no importance to me until, I catch your few breaths.
The breaths you spend while talking to me, thinking about me and when you missed me.
I have taken "The most" valuable thing from you, your time.

It doesnt matter to me, how many people are born and died. How many of them gave me there time?
How many of them think they shouldn't have given? How many of them wants to willfully spent there time with me. - That's all that matter to me. In every generation, the experiences are same. Be it 200B.C, 2010, or 3010. Nothing will ever change. Even after Thousand years the same things will be repeated. Technology has progressed, life is better but still the Basics are same.

As a kid I never thought of the things I am doing now. But I am doing it coz I am no exception. and nobody really is. What makes me wonder more is, how exactly the things fall in place. Like a Mumbai local train, Being there you get pushed in , Being there you get pushed out. Steering the life's wheel is all what we do.

Ye Dooriyan...

Kuch le gayi hai apne sath,
kuch chod gayi hai mere pass, ye dooriyan....
ek clear si subah, na badal na thand na hawa ka ekbhi zhonka.
mano jaise ruk gayi ho ghadi ki suyiya bhi ..
shanti charo taraf itni, ki sunai de sirf dhadkan aur sanso ki chehal-pehal.
Sanse toh chal rahi hai...lekin ghadi ruk gayi hai.
Ye dooriyan badh rahi hai, ya kam ho rahi hai!

Kuch din pehle ki baat hai,
jaane pehchane raste se gujarate waqt,
kisi anjani awaaj ne jor se pukara,
kuch mahino pehle yaha se koi gujarata tha, kaha hai woh?
bina kuch bole jawab mil gaya uss awaaj ko ,
udhar bhi koi rasta shayad aisehi namkin ho raha hai.
waha se yaha tak, na baat na mulakat ho rahi ha.
Ye dooriyan badh rahi hai, ya kam ho rahi hai!

kabhi zindagi lekar gayi kahi,
shayad yeh pata nahi tha meri dor bandi thi kahi.
woh hasi ab hasati nahi, chidhati hai, aur puchti hai
kya tum apna paoge kisiko kabhi?
har khwab ab likhe huye pate par hi aata hai..
chahe aankhe band ho ya ho suraj sar pe.
yeh itna faasla hai ki suraj bhi tai nahi kar pata,
samaz me nahi aata,
Ye dooriyan badh rahi hai, ya kam ho rahi hai!

Erase me from your memory: --- A dialogue from  movie Endhiran.

Multidimensional...truly sensational dialogue. Doesn't know how on earth sometimes two "humans" exchange this dialogue in real life. "machines" indeed !

Monday, September 06, 2010

No hard feelings...

Feelings -it's a bullshit word.

When you feel something, you put yourself in danger.
Decisions come second.
Feelings mess up the sky with dark and white clouds. No clear rainbow appears in such sky.
Feelings trap the energy, sometimes positive sometimes negative.
Here I'm not pretending all is fine. Things have gone terribly wrong.
Confession will only make way for the trapped energy. Release it.
Who was I? What I am doing now? What will I do?

The very old people always give a blessing, "Be as old as me, as soon possible"... Whenever I visited my village placeI got this blessing (??) several times. My grandma who is almost 87 now, always says like that. I may be 20 or something when I first time felt someting after listening this. I did not understood why this kind of blessing.? I looked at her old wrinkled face and the weak body. Looking at her I felt she could have blessed me to stay young forever, then why this kind of blessing.. to pray for someone to age early?

I was studying then, and now I'm a so called professional. Not everything, but have seen life upto some extent. Now when I think about that blessing "Be as old as me, as soon possible"... It has started making sense to me. I ask myself this question... Would it be possible for me to last atleast till 87 years? phewww.. the answer comes loudly echoying back.. HELL NO.

The kind of life I'm living has no time to think about life. Fat is depositing at exponential rate, pressure both work & blood is increasing every day. Lighter moments have become rarer too. I am exposed to so many chemicals that I dont even care to know about. New people are making there own spaces in my life and some are leaving big voids not to be filled anythime or by anybody.  It's not possible to be a mute witness. Amidst all these happenings ... Feelings...Feelings are constantly bothering me. Feelings -It's a bulllshit word.

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...

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.....

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.

Summer Trip to Chennai !!!


Touch Screen panel at Bangalore Railway Station.. Impressive.
We Don't Need No Education...
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

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…

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. :)

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.

One more :-)


Cheers To OpenSource. Say No to Monopoly.

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.

Lost...

Once you have lost the friends ...silence is more silent than ever.

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।

tschuss.

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.

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.

Direct Dil Se !

Aaj bada din hai...

Aaj mere dost bangalore aa rahe hai. Plan hai Coorg ghumane jaane ka.
A new definition of festival: When friends come to your house ..that day is not less than a festival. :)

At flat we are just now finished with cleaning, now eagerly waiting for all to come.

So the gang is as below,

Uncle Toshiba
Uma - not a Human being.. some animal :P
Truck Driver Naren
Ganpat Mavali ... bus naam hi kaafi hai
Raju Chacha
Majnu bhai Sandeep
Jayeshpai
Abhijit
Anddd the Killerman...


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.
