2009 Lessons for a better 2010

As I look back, wonder should I..??
The road taken has been tough
Numerous hurdles
But they were overcome with a strong
Sense of optimism and confidence.
With this new found energy, let’s move ahead
Carry the learning’s and lay a better road with them
Make this world a nicer place, For all to delve

Upto to us to realize the opportunities
As said in a very famous movie, I Quote
“For the first time a race has the technology to
Survive from rescue itself from Extinction”

Its time my dear fellow humans,
Time we recognize the power beyond
Our materialistic desires,
The soul needs a mind powerful enough
To heal the scars and not create new ones.

Each New Year, the ideal time to set goals
Many get lost through the daily chores
But victory belongs to those
Who atleast make an effort to Change
Not them but things around them for Better.

Hope is not only a powerful tool to symbolize one’s inability
But is the shore of an Ocean with unknown possibilities
Explore All and hopefully you Enjoy some..

Happy New Year My Dear Humans..Happy New Year…

Art of Selecting Static Pets...

Most of us would have been in many precarious situations; needless to say I have ended up in many, but none more than what happened recently.

All my friends are either married/getting married, oh yeah I am smart enough to join an elder group at a young age.

The occasion was a movie and there are three pairs and me a "spinster" no no a "Stag".

As predicted a full blown love story, Orchestrated in a mental hospital.
Oh no I don’t need more reason to go mad myself.

But what proceeded later makes me remember the day, I hope forever.

Occasion, to visit another buddy's place and say a warm Hi to her two cute Angelical daughters, with all my friends busy (supposedly with their companions) I had to bear the brunt to do shopping and off all buy a soft toy, a doll..

Wondered how, because I was never in the business of buying them and playing with them.

Just as I entered the shop and picked a nice big Teddy, electrons in mind struck and took me back couple of years.

I and Sush were off to a Mall to buy a toy and learnt from her on to how to select one.
Very Simple, Hug them as nicely, as lovely, as gently as you can.
Imagine it is your companion and gauge the feel of cosy comfortness you get.
There you go, you have your doll.

Thanks Sush for the teaching me the beautiful way of finding out one's static pet..!

The effort was a big success and I selected a very nice one, liked by all, including the elder Angel for whom it was meant.

Partial reason for breaking social relationship is not expressing your gratitude to those who made you feel light when they were around and still arouse the same feel when not in special situations.

God made one for me that day and I am happy to write about it today.

Although we are not in constant touch but not too far either, I only hope we continue to be, because
"I think she is very careless, comes and leaves behind things, very recently a naughty smile when i was buying the doll" ...

For all the fighting, infiltration into MC(which she will understand), I stand today missing those conversations, logical negative, politically sedative but socially very mindful

Diwali Time...

Day to burn all our sorrows with joy
Day to bring color to our life
Day to share sweets and happiness
Occasion to express your love to your closed ones
Day you see sky lit with thousand lights
Lets' pray together atleast of one of those light shines in each and every one's life
Don't just burst crackers
But ofcourse think of our environment
Spare a thought for those involved in providing us a visual treat.
Forgive those who have dampened your life
Instead shower them with a smile as bright as a flower pot
True to our sense, this is festivel which spreads across barriers
A truly internal part of our Indian culture
This season, this day, this time
Comes only once a year
But brings with it bountiful of joy for all
The more you share the more it spreads….
Take a vow to spread more and light others life up…..
Bright wishes in truly Diwali sense to all of you and every one associated to you, Enjoy and have a joyful and most importantly Safe Diwali....

A Small Damn World....

From time immemorial the only slogan that comes out during any farewell is , "Don't worry World is small, we will bump into some time"....i don't know how many have actually realized this and even i didn't believe this and pushed it off as a mere formality until last month..very interesting event...

One of my close friend 'Chap' had an email/chat friend by name "P", they shared and still share a very professional relationship. I happened to talk to her over email couple of years back and we found that most of our ideas match, so we continued our email chats...not  knowing us much,not seeing each other,not talking to each other, but was very happy to tell that we were friends...

The Occasion was Dada's wedding(now who is Dada, Sach, my classmate in BE and we call him dada as a respect to his figure :) ), Me 'Chap' and others are having dinner...i see a lady walking upto Chap than tap him on the back and begin a very enthu conversation..i was wondering who is this lady...??

All of a sudden she says " you must be 'N' from 'T' my employer..now how did she guess that...a that....a small history...
While 'C' was talking to her, i saw a familiar face next to me and I called him Hey 'V' what are you doing here..?? then came the voice from 'P' , which i can't forget "You must be 'N' from 'T'...
Well the lady is 'P' and the person whom i addressed is 'V' who is my colleague in my company.

Here I am talking to a lady over email for more than 2 years
Here I am bumping into a guy, know him well for more than 1.5 years...but what is the relation..."They are married and happy couple"....Wow...I can't really stop admiring the incident...and you know what I am crazy happy to narrate this to whom all I see....

"The World is infact Damn Small....it is a small damn world"...
how fitting this is told in all farewell events..i realized the importance then....a statement which was impotent to me till then is suddenly important..

Very Sweet day made more special by this event.....
Now i know who is "P" and who is "V"...infact i know both of them don't I....

Long Wait for the Last Meet..

Sometimes life is as sweet as cherry

But as cruel as anything one can imagine...

I had this childhood Dosth, John and belive me we were chaddi dosths, the word we use for close friends, we got seperated due to compulsion of time..but we resurfaced when I was doing my 11th, my God what a day we met, we being hardcore cricket lovers, it was fun watching India thrashing Lanka in the 99 world up, I still remember the way we watched the match in a cycle shop.

Life seemed so sweet the, we kept meeting more often.

One day I met him in a movie hall, am cinema buff and would not mind going alone if the movie is of my kind. I love Maniratnams' creations, I thought we were alone, then comes the surprise, he is married, a love marriage and he introduces his wife, life seemed to be uncertain but still sweet.

The only repent I have is not visiting his home.

we kept meeting near but not at his home, I still remember his thoughts on going for an outing.

All of a sudden our meeting stopped, but we were touch in phone. He kept cribbing he wanna meet, I postponed and finally asked him to come home on a wednesday, he say nope he will come home on sunday.

Life was still sweet...

Then on sunday, I am bathing my brother screams anna John in D***....!! I am like what it can't be..we decided to meet today and how he can go...I did not believe.

I called my relatives and friend to confirm and they did the worse..confirmed the news to me.

Now we dont know his home, only know the locality where he was staying, decided to go not a man hunt but on a soul hunt....we found a place which was very sober and realised its his home.

Man there he lies inside a coffin

Man there he lies with a lie when he said he will meet me

The truth was I met him

But he cant realise the what happened...he is lying in total peace

He is sleeping for eternity

He is taking rest for all his body suffered endless pain...

He passed away of Kidney failure.....whats worse he orphans his two young daughters....

I pray(i feel shameless only that is possible from me) that his soul rests in peace, his family can bear his loss, his daughters can reach good heights....

I miss you JOHN...

Why the hell we did not meet early

May be to give you a last send off.....

That was a cruel treatment to me.....

Life could never be so cruel,he was 30..Life can never be so cruel.. than i felt ...

John, there was a LONG WAIT FOR THE LAST MEET......:(

You take rest and have peacful heavenly life...

Your Chaddi Dosth : Naveen

Dai Miss you DAAA............
