Just let go...
I'm letting it go....
i'm letting go off my cribby attitude
my obsession for trifle things
letting go off the small attention seeking bug in me
letting go off the insane ,cranky child inside
letting go off the bad thoughts,the junk and the spam inside my head
i'm dumping it all
clearing my system
doing a shift+delete
cleaning the Hard Disk ;)
making some space for the nice,helpul,kind, cheerful me ...
Coming soon your way is.....the new improved ME ....
watch out this space for more ....

???
I been lookin' in the mirror
somethin's gettin' clearer
Wonderin' who am I
Just a chemical solution caught in evolution
Only livin' to survive
Or am I just another lifetime
lookin' for a lifeline
Cryin' when the sun don't shine
Am I runnin' through the ghetto
maybe I should let go
Of all the dreams inside
But who am I to reach so high
And who am I to raise my eyes
Want to liveI want to die
I can't do anything I'll tell you why -Rod Stewart

Flawed
Am i Flawed ????
just because i think...i know i think way too much
but does that mean there's a problem with me
A problem because i dont usually act selfish
problem bcos i put others interest before mine
problem bcos i go out of my way to help other
problem because i'm never rude to anyone,
problem bcos i dont snap at people,
problem because i'm generous with my compliments,
problem because i'm honest,
problem because i care,
problem bcos i have a heart,
problem because i'm concerned, concerned abt others,concerned abt all,
problem because i feel sad everytime i see ppl fighting,
Problem because i wanna stay HUMAN
and Flawed because i expect humanity from humans, it pains me when people are arrogant,impolite or rude but it kills me when my friends are like that...everyone has their share of problems ,but that doesnt give anyone any right to snap at friends or be rude
i have the so called friends who mean the world to me but to whom i'm probably nothing,
i've faced it recently when i was shown the mirror,when i had to face the bitter truth ...i dread the day when my other frnds would say the same, i know that day is coming soon cos i know its not their PROBLEM
it's my problem...i expect, and that's where i'm FLAWED...
but maybe it's true and maybe it' not....

How do you do ????
One of the so often repeated questions... how are you ???how u doing ??how do you do???
and we all know the answer yet we never stop asking....its always a "I'm fine ...thankyou"
it reminds me of Directorial debut movie of Rahul Bose "Everybody says...I'm fine"
but honestly we aren't
so many times i wast fine,but is till did nod
still said...umm..."ya ,am good"
it's like one of the norms u follow,the rules of the society....just to be polite
then aren't we all lying ,aren't we all liars ???
dont know abt the rest ,but i do go through a whole lot of emotions....
and i plan to write abt these soon,maybe one by one as to why i feel that way , the reason, the possible solution,what I can do and what i can't, and whether its a good reason for me to be feel that way or be in that MOOD
I feel happy and i feel sad
i feel Blessed and i feel bad
i feel like a princess and i feel like a pau'per
i feel strong and i feel weak
i feel abled and i feel helpless....
i feel something and i get frusturated
and i feel CONFUSED...almost all the time

Arrangements...
Today, i realised am not the only one who's open to arrangements
i met a whole lot of people who are at their own , in some way or the other ,in some kind of arrangement... its all according to their convenience
It's funny that i suddenly recall a good old friend telling me long back (He calls it the funda of his life) according to him "You just need to take care of YOURSELF,just keep yourself happy ,make YOURSELF the motto of ur life, ...and the rest would automatically fall in place,the rest of the people,the situations,their actions,reactions...everything "
And as Mr.Coelho said : "Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own".
So, forget everything,even i'll try to let go off these baggages and adhere to the following policy "You must always know what it is that you want "
YOU is all you have !!!

Amazing Grace
Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound!)
That sav'd a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears reliev'd; How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believ'd!
Thro' many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promis'd good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease; I shall possess, within the veil, A life of joy and peace.
This earth shall soon dissolve like snow, The sun forbear to shine; But God, who call'd me here below, Will be for ever mine.

hate to say it ...but it's 98.9% TRUE
| You Have a Sanguine Temperament |
You enjoy all of the great things life has to offer - food, friends, and fun.A great talker, you can keep the conversation going for hours.You are optimistic and sure of your success. If you fail, you don't worry about it too much. At your worst, you are vain. You are obsessed with your own attractiveness.A horrible flirt, you tend to jump into love affairs and relationship drama easily.You're very jealous - which just magnifies the craziness around you. |
What Temperment Are You?
chk this out...
| Your Dominant Intelligence is Interpersonal Intelligence |
You would make a good counselor, salesperson, politician, or business person. |
What Kind of Intelligence Do You Have?
For someone who thought i was making up stupid lyrics to please him ... here you go :
It Didn't Mean A Thing I gave you all the love inside of my heart. But to you - It didn't mean a thing... ~*~ You toyed with my emotions - until finally I fell apart. But to you - It didn't mean a thing... ~*~ Never had I thought you could be so cruel. To turn and walk away - as I stood there crying in the rain... ~*~ Oh silly me - I thought you loved me too. But to you - Love's nothing more - than just a silly game.. ~*~ How you broke my heart - and you made me cry. On that dreadful day when you said goobye. ~*~ You left me feeling as though I could die. But to you - It didn't mean a thing... ~*~ The day will come - you'll give away your heart. But to her - it will be nothing more than a fling. ~*~ You'll know how it feels to fall apart. When you realize - that to her - your love didn't mean a thing. By: Trixie Love
Hope , now u believe that THIS song does exist "BIG DADDY"

“Sealing”- Seal what ?????
I’ve been thinking abt writing this for two weeks now, not too sure if u aware of the MCD Sealing drive that’s going on in the Capital city of India, my hometown, my birthplace, my Delhi…All thanks to the Supreme court’s order of Sealing illegal establishments/encroachments etc etc
Am happy and am sad, I’m what I’m best at: CONFUSED
If We go ahead, ya that would bring about an ideal place to live in, but that wd also mean more layoff’s, more closed shutters, increased unemployment, more people, less work, greater dependent population and a whole lot more economic problems besides the social unrest …
Backing out of this judgement or not completing this would mean:
· We do not abide by the judgement (the Supreme Court’s order !!!- The order which cannot be ruled out and the authority which has the power to run our country on its terms,along with the powers to choose our Leader)…only God knows where would this country go… but then there is the humanitarian ground (yup, the emotional call…)
· Would show the in competency of the government: the ruling party- they’ve anyways been at the receiving end of the public ire (whereas the opposition is Looving every moment of it ;) )
· It’s like dropping ur arm’s to SOME people on the road – I don’t have the data to validate what that SOME would account to though??? (But am sure its not worth the unrest in the capital)
· Last but not the least, they are there to SEAL the “ILLEGAL” COMMERCIAL ESTABLISHMENTS and not close all establishments…its Illegal, Illegal and just Illegal that they r after
Not backing out would mean a whole lot of more protest, more Bandh’s, more school days off, less man-hours, less productivity, lesser incomes, less GDP, less GNP, Fiscal Deficit… .Ok I think am losing it…before I turn insane, help me clear this confusion…but the why am I bothered, I Still have a JOB…its another off day @ work maybe, then y am I making a fuss???? – Humanitarian grounds maybe
