Someone ask me to once again write somthing on love ! (So sir here I am with lots of lov again ;) )





"When the odds are against us, that is when we know the outcome of the event is in our favor”

Belief in our decision to Lov everyone, to Trust in the gud nature of our brothers and sisters, to tell the truth in al circumstances and events, and to Give everything we hve got. This is the fabric with which we weave the success of our lives. Failure is but the lesson that we left something in reserve, we must dive in head first knowing the waters run deep...................


Step into the unknown realizing there is not anything to keep us frm flying abv teh petty conflicts and disappointments other than our own thoughts.
Our ability to Love is impossible without the acknowledgement that we are Loved, for only the Loved can be Loving. To Love all the time we must realize we are Loved all the time. This is not an easy task. So we spend a few more minutes this morning with our thoughts of quiet solitude to decide on what kind of a day we wish to have, what feelings we will experience, and what we do we want to happen to us today. When we align our minds to our true nature this is not a far fetched idea but a promise that diligence will have its own reward. Let us not sell ourselves short today, and let us foster this growth in one another. Let us Love one another through another great wekend !



Happy ! :)


Have a great wekend all readers !

"Sapne zaroor dekho. Bas unke poore hone ki ummeed mat rakho"


"Sapne zaroor dekho. Bas unke poore hone ki ummeed mat rakho" Lines copied from DDLJ :P

so at a small talk with friends, we started discussing if it we were without any stress, any responsibility, without parental pressure, basically without worrying where the next pay comes from, what we would do. and its interesting to see a lot of ppl(or maybe its just my friends) are into some form of "creativity". i say creativity in quotations coz there is creativity in everything, even if you own a small bakery/(I'd say sum ppl always think abt food :D) of some sorts and find a unique way to make your pastries, that is creativity. or if you are a programmer and discovered a new way to structure your code, or created new programs to simplify your work. that again is creativity.

but in the regular sense of what is considered creativity, is the arts. journalism, writing, entertainment, and sometimes even entrepreneurship( i so know this is not teh correct spelling).

so anyway, my dream job which again has varied from since i was growing up. in my preteen to early teenage years i wanted to be a detective (the xfiles kind and not the karamchand jasoos fame types ) and then a radio jockey (I tried hard for that ..bt duh! was no vacancy there at that place wen I tried :(( )and then a journalist but over some months its been, a movie director or writing a screenplay for hindi movies. (only problem is my hindi isn't good at all..But no prooblem now I have a frnd Shukla with damn gud hindi ) and interestingly my friends want to do interior designing, be a travel documentarist kinds (im sure there is a real word for this), write a book, be a singer, have a business , have a desi restaurant (Kind of dhabha outside Aricent ), soap opera star ..lolz, talk show host, professional pool player ( i dont really know if there is something like this in reality).

i guess there are very few pple who do their dream job, occassionaly one will hear of so and so who quit their very stable very desi very professional computer programming job to join film school. i think it takes guts. it takes even more guts to realize that when you actually find yourself doing your dream job you a. are not even that good it as you imagined you would be and that you would fit very nicely and everything you do would strike gold and then it doesnt b. that it actually wasn't really your dream and more of a whim.

Mother tounge !!!!!

There was this joke in school – why is our basic language called the mother tongue and not the father tongue? The reply – because our fathers seldom get a chance to use them! Jokes apart, the utterances of Balasaheb Thakarey need to be taken in the right spirit. He is trying to pass on the message that those who live in places where they normally do not hail from should take the trouble to learn the local dialects....

I know how to speak in Punjabi but rather I'd say I am not comfortable with my own mother language...I have had many friends who don't like to use their mother tounges !!they are just scared of being shamed !!!!

Like the Punjabies– they should necessarily know Punjabi; those living in Kolkata should know Bengali; those residing in Chennai Tamil. This is more so because we are witnessing a gradual decline in the love for our own languages – any current movie is a heady mix of English and colloquial Mumbai style Hindi or some stupid slangs of Punjabi ..merjani Khasma nu khaani!!!. Youngsters find it more convenient to speak with one another and express themselves in English; the trend is visible even in the soaps on TV. Whether it is a saga about the saas-bahu or a soap involving teenagers or collegians, the same trend is evident. This is true not only for Mumbai,Punjab,Chennai and the Maharastrians and punjabies but for even Kolkata and the Bengalis – one of the culprits is a growing fascination for the Western culture. This is spreading due to the attraction for degrees that assure one of a safe passage to the shores of America or, in some cases, Europe and even Australia and down under. Job opportunities have opened up newer avenues and for such endeavors to succeed, it is essential to have a good knowledge of English.

In the bargain, our mother tongues are taking a beating – My father is Punjabi, I grown up in Rishikesh –I m mor at home in English & Hindi rather than in Punjbabi,I feels like a fish out of water when I am with my family members in Punjab/Haryana. Not only me but there are others like me all around us. We cannot blame them for not being to appreciate the rich heritage that lies entrapped in the boundaries of our mother tongues...

I hve a very valid point and, while all of us have certainly picked up some of the local language to be able to converse with shopkeepers and the maid servant, it will take a lot of effort and will power to force the issue.
