Memory....

Its make us laugh, by just thinking about the time we cried in past... and then
it make us cry, by thinking about the time we had spent together smiling!!! :-)

Last Blog! One says yes, other says no! Makes us wonder where to go!

Timing is the most important facet, Change is constant but, changes made at an appropriate time can lead the individual towards jubilation, else making a change at an inappropriate time make things miserable for one and at times for others too!

It’s a perfect chance pe dance write-up!

The object clause was not defined when I wrote my first blog... then it went to 10 slowly I found new topic to write on Cricket, Sports, Lyrics, Money, Bikes and Cars, Prayers, Seasons and on "second side of being"

Yeah... we all have a second side to us! It’s not about the child within us but the twins which rests within who are on constant shoot...

one says yes, other says no! Makes us wonder where to go?

Getting back:

Slowly I started writing, knowing I wasn’t avid writer - bad at punctuation, worst in spellings yet, I went on... and in time I would have reached the much awaited digit – 100! Inspite of Google search engine, Google app, Flicker, You tube, Orkut, FB, twitter – blog URL remains my favorite!

The addiction to blogging has been apparent.

Blog definitely helped me to write what I have wished. It helped me to revisit what I had written and tried to be honest, nearer with the then thoughts…. (Maintaining Diary too is a great tool)

Blog also helped me with new words; in flow I learnt lot of new words and meanings! I have another 10/12 topics in mind on which I could have wrote... but in process I have been utilizing (won’t use the word waste because it’s not the case with me :) most of my study time...

Finally I take a call to cease blogging till December 2010!

I have 3 entities to be answerable for:
Group I - Intermediate
Group - II Intermediate
Most important Me!

A perfect chance pe dance!

Couldn’t have found most appropriate day to take this call!

28




Boy…. Finally I cross the magical figure of 30!!! It’s just another number but the shift in first digit followed with 0 at last is worth to write!! – won’t be repeated in the entire span!
Thought of ending retrospective write up on wonderful note! :D

How about treating me to Blue Nile or, OR at Swagat? :-) :-) :-)

Cheers!!!

S T A R S

It was around 1500hrs when he saw a starry night; the sky was studded with billions of STARS! He wasn’t fast asleep, knew it was happening in subconscious, yet could see Stars getting brighter... and suddenly they were falling all over!!

All this lasted for some 10/15 sec.... but, boy must have been worth a runtime affair :-) :-)

Interpretation:

Such could only happen if ones mind is cluttered.
When one has unfading desire to achieve things which they set eyes on!
And third one my friend – see for yourself if ever you experience –

Deja vu!

Divine record



It wasn't 800 wickets which Murli took. But, the day will also be remembered for another record which was in making! It was only for the 3rd time in history of test cricket, where -

Worlds leading test wicket taker was bowling to worlds leading test run getter!
Muriltharan (was on verge of 800 wickets) V the God - Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar
(some 13K + runs)

On previous occasion it was in 90's Shane Warne V Brian Charles Lara

And first time it was some 100 odd years back - (unaware of name!)

Will we see some one surpassing the current record? Or is this the divine one?

New crush ;-)

The girl is world number 2!
Hardwork, determination and single minded approch towards the game is paying off rich dividends for Saina Nehwal, Just one away from being at world no 1!

Girl you deserve a round of applause! Your name reminds me of movie - million dollar baby 2004 (for the determination)

P.S.
The crush cause of her "electrifying smile!" :):)

Just 8!

Doosra!

He is been fooling many Indians and some high profile batsman world over.
He is one of the best offspinner world had seen! ICC was at its best to prove his action wrong but not once could they make out the fault!

The man who managed to go through that rigorous blowing action test in late
90's /early 2000 and finally managed to come out clean. ICC at then which was major influenced by England and down under - Australian cricket board were at its best, but it was offspinner from Asia who made them change the rules (of bowling action)

Go on Muttiah Muralitharan just 8more wickets to reach magical 800wicket mark...

Do it in your final test, Lets hope it dosen't rain, may the weather be with you!

What a joke

You rest in one city… you have the number… almost entire night and day you think of it… and inspite you don’t go to meet! You don’t call, all you do is an email – wishing, for speedy recovery!

Such worst can be the nature! - thanks to the indecisive blunders, others pay for it! Not fair yaaa God! - either make us bunch of scoundrels, unmoved by the events OR, or what...?

Where do we stand?


Have you ever came accross the biggest dissimulator....

They hold beliefs and opinions which actually, they do not hold in order to conceal real feelings or motives - the similar word is hypocrats!! One of such class is of those bastard politicians, rest we know - in our heart lies the truth.

Eveyone of us back in our mind maintains a list of do's and dont's, this is a real simple list which often gives us a platform, on which we like to "walk the talk!"

Its better to have list of dont's "larger in size" than of do's...

All it takes is willingness to follow the path irresepective of conditions!

Unless you are blessed, else chance of you being scapegoat largely dooms over but better - than to be a losers, who then discover values of life after the losing the core essence!

Where do we stand?

Match 64!



Who would have thought match64 between Spain vs Netherland!
Its a perfect nightout.... no favourates, Beautiful game itself is a winner!

P.S.
Blog pic: thanks to Google homepage! :)

Fair Deal

Its time to take stock of the tangible and intangible things which once I, you / we on individual level had wished to achieve!

The world cup – football has not just been a sport for me. It comes once in 4years.

As a kid we all had some dreams –

Common lets be honest, we all had dreams and the truth is we will keep dreaming no matter how much old we would be… as long as the child in us want to achieve more want to see new things we will continue to dream!

A dream of going to reputed college – when we were in school,
A dream of having bike – when we were filling air in bicycle,
A dream of positive academic results – when school genius was getting all accolades,
A dream of earning in Dollars – when word inflation was not even in our dictionary,
A dream of travelling abroad – when we were not even aware of India as whole,
A dream of having NRI Status, when we were not on threshold of having voting rights,
A dream of successful career – when we were going through the horrendous preparation of our first resume
A dream…

You may call it words of a dreamer but trust me check for yourself where you were 4years back, 8 years back and where you’re today! There will be a noticeable change in your fiscal position, materialistic possession, thoughts on living, on relations yet hoping to achieve more on personal, professional, and psychological front will continue!!! Affcourse one needs to be lucky to have luck on his /her side but still attempt to dream set goals is important. The one who dreams also has strength to convert it into real!

Silently I had been doing this for almost 16 years… (Wow 16 years seems like big time, but not for me, I’ll just turn 30 in week’s time ;) First time I thought of where would I be after 4 years was when in 8th stnd back in ‘94 and since then it has given me new hope…

WC finals 2010 brings another hope of kick! The list has been made…. Priorities have been set! It’s just only after 4years stock will be taken and game will be continued!!! :-)

4years for me has been a fair deal! What else can one expect from time?

P.S.
Reality is; dreams can be achieved, trick lies in religious interim check on expected vs actual and take corrective measures everynow and then!

Alles Beste; viel Erfolg :)



I have no clue why I have been backing Germany all these years? I do understand the final scoreline but not exactly the game… :D Yet I have kept saying Germanyyy…. Fingers crossed!

You simply love some nations… may be for the hero’s (for some) or villains (for others) which they produce… or for the ability by which they get back from ashes and rule the world market, even for pretty hot cheeks and many more reasons… irrespective of connection!

Exactly 24hrs later the scoreline will be seen…

Ticket for finals "2010 WC" will be on outcome of scoreline between Germany Vs Spain!

Spain is Euro 2008 champions… The crown came to them by beating Germany in finals - (1 – 0) its time for revenge!!!

For atleast Germany it’s “Everything to play for”!

Round of 16



Boy! It comes only after 4years... Today at 27 I am in fine fettle, but who knows what it would be at 31... This is the chance, the last shot..
Thought on similar lines would hover on players mind!

The thrill begins in round of 16, speed of the game, control on the ball, those cross passes near goalpost all will be seen in 90minutes of play!

The world will witness artistic skills from different players. The game will have on field controversies, dejections - jubilations, drama, and pain!

The worst is inevitable: - sudden death will settle the dust!

There would be lot of broken hearts, tears around, heartache, smiling faces least to say! Nations would rejoice in win, some will mourn.

Only one will emerge as a winner! and “the cream will be seen at the top”!

Few words on longdistance...

I can’t see her in tears; I can’t see her in pain.
I can’t see her in fix; I can’t see her go through shame!

She is beautiful, she is innocent,
She seems full of life; she is full of love.
She smiles even she loses, she never shreds a drop,
She gets along well; she cares for me like hell.
She is full of confidence, she gets smile on my face.
She once said she likes me, now she say’s she loves me more than any one else…..

I know my commitment level, it aint dropped a bit.
I trust every word of yours, but now I am afraid of fate…

I can comprehend with your situation, but just hang in there,
Keep faith in god, as he will pull you up the layer…

Simply leaving someone, won’t ever solve the purpose,
It’s not about the person; it is you who’ll need to change….

All said and done, I do care for you,
But I won’t be a reason, a spoil sport, and a cause for you.

I have been there once; I know the path is worst,
I don’t want someone else, to go through the same curse.

Even today I get up and unwanted words ring up my ears,
I am sorry, – Forgive me!
Sorry the meaningless word will solve problems for you,
But will leave permanent scars, dried tears, on someone who loved you.

Trust me sweetheart, I still have the right to say…
The last thing I want is to see you take this way!

Life you get once, choice how to live is yours…
Honest love you get once, option too is yours….

I know the meaning of friend; I’ll never make you pay,
But count me out of option, as I won’t be a guy who would go other way!

I know I am being selfish, but can’t help now…
I value our friendship more, than feelings which you have shared now!

Girls will come and go; guys will do the same,
But relation is a bliss don’t ever let that go…

I wish someday you read this,
I wish you relate to the words,
I am sure let this be a phase,
The long distance cut short, will make you happy for years!

Sport



Being an Indian sometime helps.

You can easily switch on television and watch any sporting event happening around the globe! Be it world cup football or Euro cup, Formula 1 to world heavyweight boxing championship, Australian / US open to Wimbledon, or most grueling event on planet tour de France - all you need to have is - intrinsic passion for SPORT!

The good thing of being Indian is none of Indian player/s under individual sporting event or team's collective efforts, have reached at highest level. Hence general "assumption" would have been, Indian wont have any particular favorites... the only favorite which would remain is Sport!

But, assumption its for ages being - mother of all idiots! ;)

In a population of 1billion + nation, we have our own say... and to top it up technology was instrumental in reducing the distance.

I / many of my friends for years were/are concerned about outcome of Ashes more than anything else :D cant help! You can change a person not his/her feelings, based on same principle the rule gets applied in each and every sporting event.

Personally for me
I would like too see Fedex win Wimbledon every time.
England to win Ashes every time.
Germany to win WC 2010. Similarly, different teams / sporting individuals are preferred by different people of India.

I guess it’s more to do with love for particular nation, team, playing individuals. We more than often get close to individual we relate through subconscious! Sports in a way acts as stimulant, It certainly brings us closer!

The last thing

Is it really difficult to enter into a relation? I thought it was, but couple of years back it all changed! I no more think the same way.. it dosen't take lot of courage to enter into a relation. Just show what your not and you’re into a relation!

So what in process you mess with peoples mind, there emotions, there life’s.. all you need to do is hit where it matters the most! There are lot of insecures around and then there are lot of opportunists.. just be one of them and then either land screwing up someone or getting screwed up the brains!

Any which way sooner or later you pay the price! Unless consciously one takes efforts of, not fooling around in relation with someone / in rebound phase... The last thing is guilt, unless you aren’t gifted with highly developed conscious -“guilt” will have nothing to do but, if you’re a gifted child and then god help you!

Decide for yourself what you want! The last thing is perhaps "you"

Trust me, (I still have the right to say :) the second side of me is in a gloomy state, such thoughts I wonder dose it takes us anywhere?

Play a game...




Follow instinct...Take a chance...
Be proud... Make a king...
Stay honest... Keep the secrets...
Go pennyless... Fall in love...
Make fun... Be mean...
Get into fight... Sign out loud...
Ignore the pain... Play to win...
Sit alone... Cry for nothing...
Slap who deserve it... Abuse when needed...
Smell the sand... Touch the rain...
Give a flower... savor a pastery...
Close eyes... Feel the lips...
Born once... Enjoy the game...
Live with it! Be in love with it!

JUST DO IT



In metaphorical sense its a universal language which connects all of us!

JUST DO IT is not only "Nike tagline" its has a deeper connotation in individuals life! It is a language of beauty, drama, tragedy and triumph!

For once close eyes, and imagine about the most difficult time we had seen during various assignments - it could have been a presentation which needed to be delivered, or bug which couldn’t get fixed, clubbed with project deadline or potential client which sales guy was desperate to convert into actual one, many of us have even seen the most unusual things happening in personal walk of life, some worst some impossible too....

Three words JUST DO IT can and had always made the difference for individuals to move on!

They say "tough time never last tough people do" - its not how many time you were knocked out, everyone gets knocked but it's how quick you get up and move on matters and have mattered!

Some “touch of god” sports personalities have always given us the hope. Regardless of worlds faultfinding they went on with there jobs, they believed in themselves and came out with a winning smile!

Luck plays a part in failure and success, but as Rashmi Bansal in her book – stay foolish stay hungry - says Extremely lucky guy will reach his goal in 5yrs, moderate lucky one will take 10, and the most unlucky guy will reach in 20years.

JUST DO IT certainly helps individuals from different walk of life see pass through tough time and would build strong characters!

Due Credit Sir :)



Nice one cheers!

A man lost everything because of drinking,
sees empty bottle of beers, he smashes first one swearing your the reason I dont have a wife. He smashes second one saying your the reason I dont have kids. He smashes third bottle saying your the reason I dont have a job. The fourth one he sees of rum, he keeps it aside saying: I know your not involved ;))

Thankyou Persistent!




Dear God,

Truth be told:

Sept4 2006 was a dream come true! Couple of days before I stood opposite of buld'g hoping to get in, not only I got opportunity but also got on board.
It was privileged to be part of it.

Time changed and so did the heart, mind – lookout! Finally the day has come - I am feeling very edgy about the decision which I have chosen. This was one of the best thing which happened to me! Had a very lovely and caring team and fortunately(understanding manager too.. ;)I met many nice people on my way, got lots of girl friends (girls who are friends:) compliments - haaa... nearly every day I got from some one girl or other... some said good things some found me too arrogant, with lot of attitude (loved the later one most:) These years also changed my lookout, there were some bad moments... some were impossible, some worst, some extraordinary too! Yet I am sure I couldn’t have moved out, if I was in love with comfort.

Your blessing got me to this point, Embrace me with the love and give me the will to be persistently committed to future endeavours!

Thank you God! Thank you Persistent!

A long wait



Victory is in there blood! They have been world champs in one dayers, be it world cup or mini world cup, yet they were in search to crack t-20 version. This was there chance... After empathic win in semis Aussies were favorites.

On other hand the community which introduced the game, the one's with sheer brain ruled the 3/4 of world’s population, the one's who introduced most of Indians to meaningless word - sorry, weren’t able to hold hand on any of world cup fixtures! England have been in quarter finals they were in semis too, in 1992 they reached finals but couldn't ever win one!

The best team who could have helped England to continue with there record were Pakistan ;) but Pak were done in by some great batting display from Aussie middle order!

Today was no different, for once I thought it was Australia all over, yet England had some other plans, it was good toss to win followed by some brilliant bowling and fielding and finally Mr. Captain made sure the victory wasn’t left for tail enders to achieve.

England finally won the major tournament, and got hold on WC trophy which was introduced back in 1975, finally they are world champs... A long wait for Englishmen comes to an end!

P.S.
I wish someday Protease too wins major tournament and overcome the tag of chokers. Certainly not in WC 2011, it belongs to India :)

Beautiful game on its way....



When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a wavin’ flag...

Its FIFA World Cup 2010 offical theme song... "lua la lua la" "lua la lua la" :)

Sung by K'naan, nice lyrics... very touchy, best to see video... one ball, one beautiful game, followed by one world... all singing in anticipation for one winner!

Ooooooh Wooooooh

Give me freedom, give me fire, give me reason, take me higher
See the champions, take the field now, unify us, make us feel proud
In the streets our head are liftin’, as we lose our inhibition,
Celebration it surrounds us, every nations, all around us

Singin forever young, singin songs underneath that sun
Lets rejoice in the beautifull game.
And together at the end of the day.

WE ALL SAY

When I get older I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom Just like a wavin’ flag

And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a wavin’ flag

WE ALL SAY.....

Evening....


Sitting idle nothing to do, I remembered those evenings – play ground, it was only time where one was ruthless, there was a constant competition and coming first was consolation, the main aim was to sweat out days piled up frustration!!! It was during school. Off went school time and came in new hobby in the most happening years of – college!

It was gymming…. running/stretching/double bar/single bar… just increasing weights on bar for inclined, bicep, legs gave different kind of kick…. It was followed by climbing. Climbing certainly helped with stretching and more stretching and more stretching. There was seen flexibility in upper / lower torso… flaunting with those cuts pumped muscles and that though infront of other climber was a boost! Moving in 360degree on verticle wall was stamp of authority!!!:):) As sun went west I took east! Yeah… it was time decide in consent with the bestfriend! Getting all the coins for that half a cup of coffee was an activity :) giving those excuses of stomachache and on way asking waiter to get hot chocolate to the table, just to see the smile was worth of any ache! WOW it couldn’t have been better youth….

Days changed and then the months, then the years and then the people and even the body... but I guess not the memories… - suddenly it came up when I was sitting idle outside docs cabin!

I had only asked god for courage he gave me difficulties too, to over come it!! But god is there an end to this? I asked looking at heavens after I got out of tiring medical checkup - haa MRI scan… The shoulder, the knees which once were at helm, slowly started showing up signs of frangibility… How often we heard them say health is wealth! How quickly realization of not being in fine fettle came down crashing!

Off all I have said and done, the youth was really fun.
The evenings which I had set in style, had stopped for a while.
Will it be the same.... time can only tell.

Touchwood!

Match is fixed....



She said love is blind! I honestly never believed!

I always thought it's the unconditional love which parents have towards there child. Knowing it would be one way - give and may or may not be take, yet; legitimate parents generations after generations have showered the feeling of love w/o any slightest expectation for me that is and will always be blind!

Love I always thought was a matter of conviction! It's blend of internal beauty clubbed with external attributes which attracts two opposites.. Love for me was one thing which never happened just at glance... its a timebound which required total commitment and enormous efforts from both side to keep it alive!

But then, I guess that too ain't true for some... They make you revisit what once we believed was right. Sometimes I wonder is love really blind? Was it matter of conviction? OR is it simply mentally retarded!

What Neha told me today was right "match is fixed" :)

Sanju

It was the first day and he asked me to light his cig…

I did but wasn’t happy about the incidence, the entire day and later at night I simply thought about the incidence. There was burning anger not about the guy but about me. I felt ashamed of myself.

How on the earth could I take order from someone whom I had seen just minutes back, it was a typical Leo trait which was playing its part…

I have never been comfortable on taking orders and certainly not from some moron who by virtue of coming into this world couple of years before me - ordered me…. But then they were called senior. And then there were senior girls as well…

Hugging the tree, getting pack of cigs, measuring the length of cars with matchstick were some of it.

Days went and then the weeks. I always tried to escape and started going to college from gate II, again I had to pass girls hostel.

Going on bicycle and then seeing girls looking in appreciation was a big booster ;)

I wasn’t well so decided to go home early that day.

As I was nearing my bicycle I heard someone calling my name.... Hey Sanju come here!!

Gosh “another senior” She was getting bored and asked me to teach her racer cycle. I knew she was upto a game, but her cute looks made me gave into her demand.

I was happily showing her parts of my racer, break liver, gears and its functionality.

Her straight nose, brown eyes, long shoulder length hairs which were tied-up made her look so beautiful.

In minutes she was on cycle and I was helping her with the racer… She had milky complexion on top she was wearing white pullover which had States flag on front. On my racer she looked gorgeous.

She approached pothole, small rim of my cycle clubbed with lightweight body ditched her balance, she was on ground and had hurt her palm, and all my thoughts suddenly vanished. All I saw was my love, my racer laying on the ground and later realized that Sana was in pain, she had hurt her palm there was blood flowing. She got a medical kit from her hostel and within seconds I was holding her hand, doing her banded. It was the first time I took some girls number, I called her that night just to check upon her health.

Today she was waiting for me, she even checked with some of my friends, and then I got a call, knowing I wasn’t well and so bunked college she asked me to meet me once I was back… The first thing she did was shouted and asked me why I said yes to teach her racer when I was unwell? How on the earth could have I said no to this beauty… I told her truth and left…

I got my bike when I was in II year and best way to keep it safe was to keep it in college two wheeler parking which was adjacent to main door, I don’t know why I messaged Sana about my plan… She smartly came saw my new bike smiled and went to her class… God knows what she told her friend, I knew she was empty handed but while going into class she had bunch of blank papers!

That evening knowing she would deny, I asked Sana for a ride. It was a pleasant shock when she said yes and we decided to meet near her hostel… I was standing there waiting for her and suddenly I realized the racing day, it all started on that day, it was because of my racer cycle she spoke to me, the racer and its weight got her onto floor, racer cycle gave me her number, then those messages, good luck wishes before exam, sending some forwards, wishing her on Ramzan, on EID it all started because of racer cycle… I never thought of any festivals but Sana made me took interest in Muslim festives…. Many nights I use to sit on search engine in need to understand their culture, there source. I was generally waiting thinking and she came out wearing white salvar kameez with both end of dupata pointing towards ground from front side, there was a black thread which was nearly tight to her neck and then tinny gold nose ring... GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
She was so pretty, so ravishing yet ultra innocent in looks… She looked Goddess… We were off within seconds!

I really loved non vegetarian food and took every opportunity to eat whenever I got chance, but on that day because of Sana I had to eat vegetarian. How crazy? she preferred veg over non – veg. It was my first dine with a girl and that too with a girl whom I had taken efforts to see many times in college, at canteen from the lecture hall window, I told her all what I was going thru, she just smiled said ok…

On many occasions we went out for ride, saw movies, dined together, she was senior to me which was an advantage, as I got all imp notes… still I scored more than what Sana had scored in II year mid sem… One day I was out with my cousins they ordered chicken and I refrained from having it. It was then I realized the impact of a girl, I think I….

Next day’s lecture was at 9:00 AM and I was to college at 7:30 AM, I met Sana and we were at canteen, I not only bunked the first lecture but the entire day I was sitting on one table thinking about the feeling which I had for her… I was getting closer and closer to her. Thousands of thoughts ran through my mind Was she was going to be the girl in my life? Dose she really feel the same as I feel for her.

Days passed by and then weeks and then the months. I getting was close to my II year and was and expecting a good marks as well!

Suddenly one fine day, Sana called. “Sanju, I know I am losing myself to you. I think; infact I know you have the same feelings for me. I know you as a good friend. A very good friend, your my best friend, after my dad and mom you’re the one who’s most important in my life. I guess I can’t live without you. I.....” there was a silence for a minute.

All the while she was speaking, I hold onto my breath to hear those three words. ‘Come on say it sweetheart; say it Sana” I told my self.

“I don’t know where this is gonna end. My parents are way too orthodox to agree for anything like our marriage. Why don’t we end this here?” she continued.

“But I love you....” she said and there was a pause for a while. I was in tears, I closed my eyes just to realise tears ran down my cheeks. What if she’d only said “I Love you”

What’s the point in saying I love you which was not going to sustain. Whats the point in being in a relationship which was not going to last?

I decided to cut loose, and deleted her number, her email ID but how on the earth was I going to erase her name, her number from my brain? Still I was ok. It took mammoth efforts to concentrate on studies, somehow, I got back on track!

Whenever our paths crossed, I gave her blank look, and I tried to avoid her. I decided to stop bike and again started my racer, only this time I came from main gate and went by main gate. One day, it was late evening when I was returning to my racer I saw a Sana she stopped me and asked me to get my bike immediately and pick her up from hostel. We went to a lonely place where there was no one to listen…. I got my bike onto stand rested upon it and looked at her… She held me by my t-shirt and shouted out loud, “why are you avoiding me? Why are you looking at me as if you don’t know me at all? Please, I do love you, but I am afraid of my parents. I just can’t live without you” and she started crying, I took her hand in my hand and was about to speak as she hugged me tightly and called my name...

A woman is difficult to be understood. But today I saw her true feelings towards me. I knew she loved me the way I loved her.

“Don’t worry, I will take care of it. I will see that we are together,” It was first time took her face in my hand, brushed my nose against her nose and kissed her on her forehead.

I was as afraid as she was. I never knew when we would be separated. I never knew when this relationship would come to an end. The only thing that I could do was study and remaining time pray.

They say that a guy who often prays when in a relation is damn serious about the relation. I prayed, each and every minute. I prayed to god that she and I should get married. Little did I knew that I was asking for something which would never be granted.

I was way busy with my final year submission for a few weeks, Sana was already working. I couldn’t contact Sana during submission period, one morning she called me and said, “I am sorry Sanju. I told our story to my parents. My mom wasn’t happy about it. I love my mom so much I don’t want to lose her. I love you too. But I am worried that my mom may suffer a major setback I can’t see her in pains and don’t want to build my house of happiness on there sorrows. Please do forget me. I am sorry” she said and hunged upon me

I never anticipated such an answer. It was shocking for me. All these days, I have imagined her to be my wife. I had been to places and prayed to come with her one day. I ....

And now she called me saying that she’s giving up to her parent’s pressures?

What kind of answer was this? I am not the kind of guy who would just let go things, forget and move on with life ….

She always said, “I love my parents and you” and I always said “I love you more than my anyone else”

This was it. I started to drink and smoke.. A few weeks later, I came to know that she married another guy, the feeling of loosing someone so badly was far too much to handle....

I closed the diary. I understood the pain which my brother must have gone through… I only loved my parents and my husband and my brother but after reading his diary I was in his shoes for a while.

“Sanju....” I closed my eyes….

And saw the past unfold…. The day when dad told me about new member of our family, the day when I saw my brother first time, the day when he cried seeing me sitting on mom’s lap, the day when he was scarred and hold me tightly during his first day at school, the day when I consoled him, when he lost interclass football match, when he took 5rupee coin from my bag just to treat ice cream to his best school friend… I remembered the spark in his eye when I introduced him first time to my college girl friends, day when he got an engineering seat in a reputed college, his tears when I was about to get married, and finally.....

And finally when I saw doctors in intensive care unit struggling to save....

ABBA Track



"Money money money must be funny in the richmans world!
All the things I could do, if I had a little Money.... In the richmans world"!

Right from Rover to Austin, Bentley to Rolls Royce all were lined up under one roof.... The owners weren't competing for I, II, III positions, they were simply there for a cause!

All cars were superbly maintained, its was power of money and precisely why world can see... such *classic collection* :)

One needs to have taste for good things, passion makes you run behind the dreams, but all is possible with one thing Money!

All the things I could do if I had a little money.... In the richmans world!

Happens

Finally she's there!

haaa you wont know, how much relieved I have been! I couldn’t eat, nor could I sleep. I spoke to people around but wasn’t interested in the conversation, did some presentations but mostly bookish, let me tell you it wasn't an easy affair.
On how many occasions we expect small small things for others and yet fate plays a spoil sport!
Well, it wasn't the case this time! The wait was frustrating, but the outcome is soothing!

Just take care of your body and mind! Get well soon.

Amen!

It’s true

Which is why partners even start to look like each other! (I have a friend who actually looked like her mother in law, they looked like daughter-mom more and less of in-law ;) - no jokes

Long lasting relationships and friendships are between people who are similar.
Sure opposites attract but for things to last longterm; it’s the similarities that last!!!
Hoping someone to change for you is the biggest myth ever. Yet moving beyond this I even believe that we attract things and situations in our life. The work we believe is meant for us, is what we get. Sooner or later we attract it!
If we give enough strength and belief in our thoughts, we can get the dream home, holiday, vacation, (materialistic) and a relation, a partner, a career, good health (peace of mind) certainly not relationS :P

And similarly if we only think about problems then thats what we get more and more and more.....

So stop trying to read other people’s thoughts and concentrate on yours… :)

Timing....

He got in big table, then came electrician with extension! O yes, he wants to show Final of Indian Pagal League... all this took place at 1400hrs, Crazy? The match is suppose to start at 1800hrs and the bugger is putting up add right now!

Now watch IPL Final while you eat - is what the white board at limited size hotel of law college road said!

I wonder how many would turn up to see grand finale at this hotel. Had he showcased the write-up 24hrs before, then there was possibility; he could have made significant difference to his inflow! I was in no mood to give any advice, yet felt very amazed with his timing!!!

How on the earth some people cant plan the simplest of things? We don't necessarily play with people - we like to play and be played with minds!

Spending is completely time driven factor, and in pursuit of influencing people to spend one explicitly needs to be on time, it matters and yet....

After all this pagal is setting up the show for another pagal ;)

MIDC

Yeah... finally I allow myself to write something on biggest cricketing circus which has zapped nation's imagination, its not only making already rich bastard politicians more richer but even giving middleclass Indians a chance to spend lovely evenings, yes its about

IPL - (my version) 'Indian PAGAL League' ;)

Here is what I think, its purely intuitive feeling:

Today will have 1st semifinal MI vs. RCB, sorry but, Royal Challengers Bangalore will royally get drilled by Pollard, and 2nd semifinal will have DC vs. CSP, my favorite Gilchrist who's yet to strike for Chargers will put halt to Chennai’s dream!!!

The final will be between MI vs. DC and boy, the orange cap guy, the master, the godfather of all batters, the captain will hold the much coveted trophy for
MI!!!

Expressions

Every individual - the individual "who has been blessed with some degree of sanity" ;) likes to read. Be it fiction, biographies, mythological tales, science/engineering/medicine/law/management/economics or simple blogs we like to read and read and read...

Some stories are about real life experiences, some are about historic events, some are love stories, some talk about diminishing marginal return, while some are complete factitious in nature - yet one thing which stays common is our continuous search of 'association' with the book / with the author!

This is true with every Indian (atleast for middle class Indians) most of the time its our subconscious which takes control of the books which we read, movies which we see, unproductive actors which we adore(most of the lot) or sports personalities which we follow.

and even with the blogs... :)

we all try to express! Is it wrong? Off course not!

What else dose our article 19(1)(a) of the constitution say?

How lucky were we the word we never missed! at the most it was limited to parents... morning we were dressed for school and by the twilight we thought of them :) we only missed mom when we were hungry... grandparents at the time of festivals, cousins during time of vacation, elder brother during those intense school fights, and dad we missed him when our wallets missed Mr. MK Gandhi. ;)

Seldom, we thought about the word till one day it came down crashing and derailed our conscious! Did we really miss the person who helped us know the meaning? was it the smile? the touch? softness of the lips? raw kiss? the fragnence? what exactly did we miss / people around missed? answers will vary, yet once there comes time when we forget everthing and.....

"only miss the person we thought they were"! Did I miss the title? ;)

Innocence!

Not bad...

I forgot to carry my keys and as usual I came late around 2:00
All I did was went up the gate and climbed down... Haaaa those "college days" climbing the gate with utmost ease, going out to station for chayee and in midst of event hoping everything to be at peace, back home! was also fun to get caught and then those mighty excuses! ;);) time changed, but so far; not exactly the body.

Almost nearly after a decade, I could climb the same gate with the same zeal! I guess adaptability of mind to the situation clubbed with flexibility of body - can make wonders!!!

Should thank God! :)

Zooom....

cI first saw her on wall paper, for its sheer looks, shape and bright colour I was in love ;) yesterday I saw the beauty for real… Blood red…
Aaai gee!!! she looked so beautiful, heavy duty body ;) great interiors and coziness with expected German engineering and ingenuity….

I seriously thought of getting one – one day, until I heard the price 25lac…(Ballssss)

She has won many hearts but I am doubtful, how many will ever posses her?
(it’s been sold 3times higher than of a normal. 25lac one can possess two)

After all it’s not meant to be a family car… for me “one should have her at ideal age of 24”

A car to drive your girlfriend (s) ;)

O VW Beetle!

Difference





Sometimes subject line force us to search for an image
while, sometimes image itself takes us to subject line....

Small difference, "Big difference"! :)

I want too...



Hun... :( right now!
I want too write a blog on person which is in my subconscious!
I want too write a blog on "which could have been most heated up conversation" (imaginary) between Kunti and Sun god! ;)
I want too write a blog on my new girlfriend one which will never leave me irrespective of my partners presense! (and Iam sure partner wont mind it either!:)
I want too write a blog on Chakras, there flow, disadvantages when its imbalanced!
I want too write blog on surmai cury, crab masala, chicken tandoor and mutton biryani! yummy........ ;)
I want too write a blog on rain!

Yet, all I am doing is sitting and trying to put my focus back onto the thing which is more important than any, at this moment - studies!

Somethings... can wait for sometime - I guess!

p.s. I guess by 6:00 AM I will land up writing a blog on tears (how studying alone can be tiresome! ;)

Sometimes



We can't go back!

Surprised!



The impacts of some decision are known years latter… some reap individual’s good results some backfire!

The decision I took was not under anyone’s influence, it wasn’t impulsive either! After a time I thought it was time for me to call it off and hence took decision of moving out of my team (unit of beautiful energetic girl’s) of company (which is growing in numbers) of job (which was giving me decent salary)

I was passionate about my work, I loved what I was doing, or I was doing what I loved :) till then it was ok, but one morning I got up and seriously doubted my inputs. Day two I had to drag myself to office... weeks later I was questioning my existence! I would have certainly gone brainsick had it lasted for months! All I had to do was either stick to it and live a “life of a class” who want to explore new things but can’t due to seamless tiring constraints or least try and explore few possibilities of what human brain is capable off ()!

Forget about the rest – but decision also took me by surprise, how on the earth can one put security on least priority? Ahhhh "Security” Here I come, we come…

A big building, glass walls, AC cubicles is security...
9:00 to 18:00hrs job is security...
5days working is security…
Free meals / snacks, free coffee and tea is security...
Sweating it out entire year just to receive insignificant some of money on 1st of FY is security...
Withdrawing month’s salary after 10days of leave is security...
Being extremely good at dirty politics is security...
Being a good asskisser is security...
And mother of all… Inspite of escalation / mess up being rest assured of job – is security...

After all such benefits how can one overlook securities?

But now I am thoroughly convinced; some souls simply adore betting with fire :)

I am sure most of working professional some day or other go through such emotions. Some accept and carry on, while some rebel… Yet the fact remains… Security is utmost important factor for mortals, be it in job or love or emotions… Secures are more content then there insecured counterparts…

Well after knowing all this, I have fancied the chance of moving out of job security, thanks to those who have shown faith and support!

Time will certainly give its verdict, all I can provide is rigorous consistency and most important will to carry on!

The Connect

This was one of the easiest Q asked by 92 years old lady... and yet he was unable to get it spot on!

What do you get by climbing mountains? What do you get by doing cycling? in heat of moment he replied "you wont understand" but in retrospect the Q" meant a lot..

What have I really got by climbing mountains? Be it in Himalayas or any other pinnacle / fort in sayahadari... what have I achieved by climbing? by trekking? by cycling?

Experience...which will not be counted!
Memories...which won’t last!
Summit success... which is one minute glory!
The important facet is one blow’s up the earning - some may agree some may not! yet the fact remains - one spends tens of thousands, and most valuable time to pursue the sport! And still the urge of going back doesn’t stop!

May be the simplest answer to the Q would have been - "because they are there"! but then, even that aint true! There are lots of exotic places around; yet,





Why run behind unforgiving sunlight, blistering wind, and harsh elements?
Why sleep on slope, pebbles under the karrimat?
Why everytime face has to go black? lips cracked?
Why everytime fight dehydration?
Why everytime skip lunch and later feel proud about it?
Why everytime talk to muscles, joints?
Why everytime play with mind and purse it for last leg?
Is all the rubble worth so much trouble?

I asked these Q as if I knew the answers, but honestly I don’t have it!

All I knew was one thing, such a sport is inside, its internal business, it helps in shaping our charecter; its not about success, its not about summit, its not about destinations, its not even about obstacles, there is ego within; which needs a boost, its fear of loosing which keeps the person going..

There’s is this unforgettable lesson of Fight, Perseverance, Acceptance, and Surrender! taught by Mother Nature - which remains with the soul forever!

Well you can’t explain it to a novice, True!

The old lady asking me is my ajee.. I guess at this age she won't comprehend with "connect" nyways!

Alain Robert




He made it look so easy! His every move was filled with utmost confidence; he was almost nearly dancing on vertical wall, not for once anyone standing below thought of worst!

No matter how much you climb up, after 5ft one slight error has magnitude of turning climbing event into disaster! For once climbing up without any safety was possible in dreams, in real he showed us the way :) but climbing down without safety lines from 100mts was too much to accept!

For crowd, it is a pipe dream... but boy; he was not amongst crowd as he exactly knew how to reach there! He was definitely on top of his game!

The Man is practically living life as if theres no tomorrow! Cheers SIR.

A little boy!




He wants to play and play and play and play....... for once we might think what will the little boy be without cricket, but it will be other way round "what will cricket be without a little boy"? I think, I THINK – God was in extremely gracious mood when the little boy was sent to earth, the boy has been blessed with every possible fortune and yet grounded to the roots forever!

It was around 5:30 when Kantu ;) called me and told me about the world record which was made, the previous record of 194 was broken! then Rushe my brother pinged up and constantly gave me updates it was at 5:54 PM when the little boy made the history - became first person under the sun to make double century in one day cricket!!!

For once when I was checking live score (thanks to my interest from work which is fading up day by day) I was hoping guy who was at striker's end to take a single and and refrain from big hits!

Today, the little boy derailed railway budget, compliments were flowing from all corners, be it Indian cricket fans, celebrities, x-players or custurd (actually bast'd ;) politician, all were sending msg's be it through the news or on twitter... yet one compliment which struck me, was from little boys idol (Gavaskar)- the original little master himself said - "Would like to touch his feet" - its a rarest thing to ever hear from any individuals idol, (the other side is it takes special efforts and consistency in commitment to reach at this level)

I wonder what his coach the veteran Achrekar would be thinking?

It's just that few things which I would like to see..... Honestly I am not concerned about winning - in a game anyways someone will win and some will loose but everytime when this little boy goes out, I wish

Thanks for giving me and billions of middle class indians, yet another reason to smile :)

The impact..

After long time I had seen excitement in his eyes, and why not? he was about to get married. Before then he had some on and off relations but most of the time it was one sided affair or was rejected by the opposite, A average person in terms of looks, grasping, and earning was only looking for one thing – one steady relation! The only thing which bothered him was loneliness but then how on the earth any beauty was going to accept this avg and that too for a marriage?

Things changed and his prayers were answered, finally two of them zeroed on one thing "YES". The guy who once called me every night for a glass of beer, understandably ignored me :) guy who once stayed at office till mid-night was leaving as early as he could, he was becoming more serious about his own future. He was determined on having a good life with his better half too.

He had put in extra efforts at work, the work he did was on application and one error was to cost the entire department a slap on face – never he committed any slightest error – yet the self proclaimed brilliants in org gave him worst rating, no increment leave aside promotion! He still didn’t loose hope all he kept saying was one thing, it will change! And it will…. because of her presence!

The marriage date was of today! But then the the great almighty the - Karta - Karvita had some other plans, yesterday the bugger was admitted to the hospital as he witnessed chest pain, hole in the heart, clubbed with pressure of uncertain tomorrow did the trick... marriage is now postponed the date is not fixed either, all his dreams, happiness of his parents are put on hold. the big Q which lies is will he be rejected yet another time? At prima-facie "I HOPE NOT"

All these years he held-off for one thing and the moment it arrived he is about two witness moments of truth!

The heart and brain functions in there own way, heart doesn’t have its own brain and brain can’t think from heart! (blessed are those who can balance it and fortunate are those who find better half with same inclination)

I hope he gets well and gets married soon, it will take split second for a person to change mind and the impact of rejection will leave permanent scars on brain and heart which eventually will lead to yet another infinite combat!!

Whatever the outcome, let the potential couple come out together with winning smile!

Amen!

My favourate...




He is one of the most fascinating

Below are some lines, "which I got" from a friend on my favourate character... "KARANA" The one who had ability, an art to defeat all of his contemporaries! Had he not been cursed by Parshurama and finally misled by Bramaha...


Born with a shining Armour
Result of someone's untimely prayers
Left alone in the big world to fight
Raised by someone who did what he thought was right
Asked the little child to God…. Why Me?

Raised in a poor yet loving family
Little did he knew about the reality
Always getting the shorter end of the stick
Life was making him more determined and stiff
Again he asked to God. ..Why Me ?

Taking life the way it came
Along the way ignoring the shame that came
His heart was full of grudges and angst
And that was the biggest source of his strength
Again the young man asked to God
Why Me.?

Life has got no retakes
He did went through his share of mistakes
But the last thing on his mind was regret
But never did he tried to forget
The not so rosy past
And time just went ticking so fast

Along came curses that did come true
Along came friendship that indeed was true
Along came name, fame and glory
But also came with it an unforgettable rivalry

For opponents he was always the wall
Between defeat and victory
Little did he knew that he will forever become immortal
In the pages of History

Ultimately like every human his time did came
The way he died none would have wanted to be part of same
Finally for the one last time asked he
Why Me...?

Famous 3

Last year for the first time in history of world cricket India reached to No 1 spot in world test cricket, thanks to famous 3 who have undoubtedly been on mission to rescue India and have snatched victories / leveled serious from the jaws of defeat! (Tendulkar, Dravid and Very Very Special Lakshaman :) and cricket crazy fans aren't complaining. isn’t it?

Irony is we are competing against 7 / 8 teams who actually have test standing! Yet we are happy about our achievements!
To compare with worlds sovereign states only 0.039% of nations play test cricket! Our arch - somehow don’t qualify to call themselves sovereign state is a different story!

Coming back to the point - Today was no different. The first test against Proteas started couple of days back and on day 3, in 30 years for the first time India are on brink of loosing by an inning, on Indian soil. Injuries kept Dravid and VVS out of team and new boys were expected to fill-in there shoes!

Tomorrow we might face an innings defeat, followed with possible series loss and with that no 1 spot! But big Q is "Can we keep number 1spot without our heroes?"

2010 for all good reason will be a good year - yet our heroes, who once brought smile on our face, tears in our eyes are slowly but surely walking towards end of there career!

Will India ever get to see blend of aggression, defense and timing in form of famous 3?

Can the mind be changed?




He has always been consistent in making resolutions at start of the year... then it went to 1st of every month, then to a week - Monday and finally ceased on tomorrow...

I don’t remember how many time he promised me, of not drinking from tomorrow? The determination started when the sun god showed up, and faded with his exit! Well gone are those good old days, one day he finally came to term, liquor was passing affair and he was seeing refuge!

All I thought everyday - was there any need for him to drink every night? and honestly then and even today he says NO!
Was he ashamed of sin? On asking him he always said No. He never felt bad about drinking?

The need wasn't for body but for mind... All it did was helped him forget bitter experience and forgive those who made it possible, it also gave him unmatched courage to avoid cowards and finally the bottle refrained him from potential relations which he could have had it with opposite. He drank and drank badly cause to avoid possible conflicts or at times relations.. (not that relations are bad) But he wasn't keen on having stop gap arrangements and was so self-centric that never wished to do anything in half hearted manner.

Drinking is not bad, for those who drink for pleasure, but can have devastating effects if one avails just to run away from reality. It simply takes the drunker on different plane where every thing around looks rosy, secured and by the moment one is out of hangovers, reality struck.... O no - REALITY HAUNTS!

Days went by and so were months,
Years came and were gone,
The guy who once had determination was showing up signs of vulnerability.. This was to end somewhere, but "how" was the "big Q"

Until one day he realized -

Today’s reality was to be tomorrow’s past,
Tomorrow was yet to come, what all mattered was today!

The problem was in his mind, as he contempleted on every word, action of others! Others who had, kind of dislike for him - for his attitude, but were unable to express there true opinion!

All it took him was to change his outlook; the mind finally persuaded to the very fact once which he conceived but had long forgotten!

Crossing!

I was part of a training program - "Customer relation" being in support function we have to deal with internal people - this is what most of people think, and as usual I was against it!

After introductory session, expected Q was out on table "who are our customer"? and in my head I zeroed on myself, I am my own customer! Sounds funny isn't it? but then fun lies in believing what others might feel strange.

Every individual who enters organization enters with some responsibilities / tasks which are assigned too... Organization pays us for work we do, appreciates our job by way of rewards / promotions... you dare carry your sorrows for number of hours / days at work place and its deliberately overlooked, you dare prolong it and get ready for downturn / worst for pink slip!

We are often judge by performance we show, which are part of "Key Results Areas" KRA's! Like us even our managers have their own KRA's, similarly Head of department, CEO and finally Owner!

Normally its said that people leave managers and not organization, but think the other way! We never work for organizations we work for our managers! Its portion of our managers KRA which we fulfill day in and out! But more important we fulfill our own needs by fulfilling our KRA's.

How many times in a day we dislike our job, the environment? If frustration levels are so high, then why? Why don't we resign then and there?

Cause it is our need for currency, need of being in power…

Then who is individuals real customer? :)

Ise bacche pee Allah ke den hai!





"Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar"
nations hope, his every first run scored is cheered in same way as his tirple ton! Thank our fortunes as we were able to see him bat in sublime form! The honeymoon period for team India soon will get over, (lucky enough for us it has lasted 20years ;) for now lets us pray the Master takes his tally to 50 centuries each - in one dayers and test cricket.
God let him bat one last time for the nation and give us joy of being world champions of 2011 "world cup"

A day too remember!





I have been one of those unlucky guys who unwillingly land in places which they hate the most! For me one of the place is dead room, - morgue! Had been there couple of times, the road itself haunts me with terrifying experience of past... but I wasn't aware then - in the same vicinity lies yet another room which is seemingly trying to fill colors in childrens who are deprived from there biological parents. the orphanage called - Sofosh!

I have been great admirer of people who adopt! Be it by choice or otherwise...

Last month I visited the place with my friends mom, the old lady was excited to see the new member of her daughters family, then it was her, today it was her daughter, her husband and there first cute little girl! Inspite after having first child the choice was made they traveled 6000 miles just for there new baby, adoption ceremony took place and believe me it was as good as one of those naming ceremony I have been too – may be the best I have seen so far! One could have seen the happiness in eyes of every person :)

The entrance message was loud and clear: "Welcome to Child Adoption"

Giving birth to someone is one thing but, putting life into someone really takes lot of courage, and commitment of life time!!!


Thanks Richard, Rajeshree for the wonderful experience, a thing to remember for lifetime!

Ultimate 7



I have just got OS - Windows 7, its fun to have on your machine!
Equipped with new features, it has virtually removed Alt+Tab option ;)
Desktop Background changes at specified time! currency conversion, weather updates, feed headlines are just a glance away. On top (I think) user can even create his own theme (will try now at 3:01 AM :) and can save it as desktop background, good way to be in nostalgic state!!!
Search option from program menu has made life soooo easier ;) ;)
Learn more about shortcut keys & help yourself in making maximum use of precious thing called - time! in days to come will venture many more things!
Atleast for now, windows 7 seems truly to be "Ultimate 7"
afterall boys need some toys! Isn't it? :)

Yeah.. he is my bro.. WHAT? :-)

I have been lucky enough to get girlfriends… girls who are friends :) not that my girlfriend wasn’t good, yet have always been lucky with girls who are friends and some who went beyond the duties and helped me!

This is to you my friend, who have been close to me as a friend, the one who knowing everything helped me in enormous ways (at times who also gave unsolicited advice ;) –

May god bless you with all happiness under the sun, may he showers love, trust… do remember me on D – day! I am not of those who would go happily for marriages, but yes for meal I have been and even today would go to unknown ;-)

And my friend your marriage is special as if time allows, I would get glimpse of my all time favorite WALL! Yes your bro to which I refer as Sir Rahul Dravid! :-)

The only day!





The only day - when I ask god " why me" not that I am one of those who would be happy seeing others go through ordeal, but then why it was me who got hard side of the stick.

Well they truly say " when you talk to him its a prayer, when he talks to you its like going to a mental asylum" anyways let the prayer continues! Some day he has to respond positively!!! :)
