END OF THE YEAR

I was travelling by the local train, was on my way back home. This was yesterday, 30th December. I said to myself the year of 2008 is coming to an end tomorrow. And here it is today, 31st December. The year was significant to me in many ways. It has passed off quickly, I hardly realised how the time has passed by. A new set of learning’s imbibed by my teacher – LIFE. I have been a good student I suppose if not the best. Honestly this blog may be too small to accommodate all the happening and the learning’s. Over the years I have seen myself evolve as a person. Constantly changing, hopefully all these changes have been for my good. I don’t proclaim to be super intelligent or a saint. I’m just a student who has always been open to learn something new. I’m happy for whatever I have been blessed with. I become sad too, when greeted with trouble and failures. But then I find myself putting the pieces together and getting ready for the next phase. Failures are just a part of life not the end

Another Usual yet unusual day of my life.

[Written as on 26.12.2008] Today I sit in front of my computer confused and lost. I have wondered many a times why things happen the way they happen. Tried to find a rational reason for the same. But I failed most of the times to understand why. Somewhere deep within myself I hear a voice tell me, “Whatever is happening let it happen. Just take one day at a time. Every new day is a gift blessed upon you.” I had typed mere 75 words and then my dog, Jimmy started to bark uncontrollably. This is quiet unusual considering he never barks unless there is someone at the door. They say dogs have a genuine 6th sense. Is he trying to warn me against something not so pleasant going to happen? I hoped against the hope that I might be wrong. I asked my mom to check on my sister who has gone to college. It turned out she was fine. Then I asked her to call dads office. To see if he was doing fine. Alas! This can’t be true, but the happening can’t be changed they say.

A Sunday 2 remember!

I'm sure she is gonna shine as usual in the beautiful night sky... just like a star! We shared a great time when in WNS ....It was fun being able 2 meet 2 good frenz of mine... Great cherishing the old memories of WNS ! On my way back, I took the bus from station to home... Ye off late its gonna be more of bus and less of rick! Call it the impact of recession.... Or should I say bluntly.. can't afford the luxury all the time yaar ! he he he he.... Ye I came across a beautiful girl in RED! Hmmmm ... But then her beauty couldn't hold me captivated for long... I was swept away my the innocent smile of two kids in the same bus.... So true Innocence is bliss and beautiful too... Cheers!

The beginning of a new season of my life.

26/11/2008 This date is always going to be remembered by me as for years to come. Those 60hrs of life which I spent largely in front my TV. I was sitting on the couch, watching the heart breaking, blood bath in the heart of Mumbai. Innocent life’s coming to an end all prey for the blood game of 10 odd terrorists. There was anguish within me but had no way to express it. And the idiotic senseless political blame game began soon after. Heads might have rolled amongst the people in power, but that’s no solution. Its never going to bring back the dead. Its never going to enough to heal bruises not just physical injuries of victims. But also the mental agony and bruises on our minds. I can’t speak for everyone, but for me Its definitely not going to be the same again. There is just one life gifted to me. And I’m determined to make a difference, big or small way, for my society. People might forget all that happened. Get back into the cocoon they have been living in. Never introspecting t
