In this life we always want more and more, if we have a Mercedes we want a Ferrari and if we have a one bhk in the crowded Mumbai suburbs we want two bhk in upscale Bandra complex.
These two songs which i think everyone should wake up to, yes i know it is not the ideal world but the words are so simple and surely it can make you smile through the day.
Good Morning World by Dean Martin:
Don't Worry Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin

Two of my all time favorites......which is a must on Monday Morning!!
Have a great time

In Love!
As said in previous post about the girl who i like/love (still confused), had a chat and sms's with her for a long period of time. Then one day blurted out something which i was not supposed to do. Decided to meet her.
Zooming back to the past....i have never told a girl about my feelings to her or even proposed anyone so this becomes a very important event for me.
Decided to meet near her place and to tell her of what i feel, on my bike thinking all the way what to say and how to say and I knew there was a flower shop next to where we meet so decided to buy a Rose for her. We sit in a crowded coffee shop (not an ideal place i guess) and we chat about general stuffs here and there.....and she poses the question "so tell me something about xyz?"
XYZ is a girl name who I just randomly picked up to say that i like her so as not to give out the details online (hated it that time)
And the conversation continues:
Me: You know there is no XYZ girl
She: Ya i knew it.
Me: mmmm
She: So who is she.
Me: You know it is embarrassing......(long pause)......it is you.
She: Ok...ahaahahaha
Me: So what do you think.
She: Well i dont have that kind of feeling for you.
I just move back on the chair and take a deep breath....ok...fine.....
I am a Optimist Pessimist (dont ask me what it is...for that i would need to meet you)
I was expecting a yes answer but was not hurt after being rejected, this was the first time I proposed a girl and I guess this has lifted a big burden out of my chest.....just thinking that rejection does not hurt much.
One good thing out of this meet was...had some great muffins and made a good friend.
Cheers.....

In Love!!!!!
Never felt being with someone before, I am kind of a person who likes to go alone all the way be it movies, to eat food or just walk. But I guess this is for the first time I feel like walking with the someone who I know I can have fun with while I go for movies, eat or just walk.
I know this girl for a long time but was not in touch with her for but used to bump occasionally at some event or coffee shops. I have one weakness about girls which is common sense and what i know of her she has lots of that. I can walk with her for hours without saying a word and still be happy or just look in her eyes which do a lot of talking.
I for the first time hope that she becomes mine.....

Who's Gonna Save my Soul Now
This girl is about to break up with his boyfriend and during the conversation the guy pokes a knife around his heart and see the video to understand the full story
Lyrics of the Song:
[Cee-Lo]
I got some bad news this morning
Which in turn made my day
When this someone spoke I listened
All of a sudden, has less and less to say
Ohhhhhh how could this be?
All this time, I've lived vicariously
Who's gonna save my soul now?
Who's gonna save my soul now?
How will my story ever be tollllld now?
How will my story be tollllld now?
Made me feel like somebody
Hmmm, like somebody else
Although he was imitated often
It felt like I was bein myself
Is it a shame that someone else's song
Was totally and completely dependant on
Who's gonna save my soul now?
Who's gonna save my soul now?
I wonder if I'll live to grow old now
Gettin high cause I feel so lowwwww down
And maybe it's a little selfish
All I have is the memory
Yet I never stopped to wonder-ahhhhh
Was it possible you were hurtin worse than me
Still my hunger turns to greeeeed
Cause what about what I neeeeeed?!
And OHHHH~! Who's gonna save my soul now?
Who's gonna save my soul now?
Ohhhh I know I'm out of control now
Oooh-oooh, tired enough to lay my own soul down

DANCE!!!
Got this link on a forum and i am so glad i checked it out....you should not miss it...
This guy has being traveling around the world and being doing this...
Enjoy
The lyrics which is translated in English...
Stream of Life
by Rabindranath Tagore
The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures.
It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
in numberless blades of grass
and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth
and of death, in ebb and in flow.
I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life.
And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO LEARN EVERYTHING THE HARD WAY
Again from Auntlaya Blogspot here i post something which she has written so beautifully....
It is about Suicide which i keep hearing about in Mumbai and other cities of India...I feel sad for those who love the deceased one but could not help them.
Only thing they would say is "Only if he/she would have told us about it".
Read the text below and it would be helpful for us those who would love to help others.
One life lost to suicide is a loss too deep for words. For some people, the
pain they feel is so deep and so wide it appears to be unconquerable.
If you are considering suicide, please let my words be close to your
heart right now as I say to you: Dear one, do not despair, you are not alone.
There is a way out of your pain. You are only one person in the world, but
you mean the world to those who love you. Even if you are not in a place
right now to know that, it is true.
The dark place you feel is exactly the place for you to search for the spark of light within you. Your pain is the beacon to show you where to direct
YOU DON’T HAVE TO LEARN EVERYTHING THE HARD WAY your healing. The way to heal is to apply your love like a salve to the place inside that hurts. ASK FOR HELP. It’s okay to ask for help. There are people who have survived what you are going through. They are looking to find and help you!
Know that you may not find the right connection on your first try. Keep trying. Some people can’t understand where you’re coming from. They are afraid or maybe they are just not able to help. Ask and ask until you find the right help.
Know that there are people who care!
Know that the pain will lessen.
Know that healing happens.
There are people who have devoted hours of their lives to convince you to hang on, reach out, and get the help you need to make it through to the other side of the pain.
There is a way to break through the pain and get to the other side to see the meaning and purposefulness and value of you. In a seminar a man held up a hundred dollar bill. “Who wants this?” he asked. All hands shot up in the air. He crumpled it up. “Now who wants this?” he asked again. Again, all the participants held up their hands. Next, he threw it on the ground, spit on it and stomped on it. “And now?” he asked. Still, all hands went up.
He went on to tell the participants that they are like that hundred dollars. No matter how crumpled and trampled that bill became, it held its value. No matter how down or dark you feel, and even if you don’t get it now, you are valuable.
Some people reading this chapter have lost someone they love to suicide. If you are grieving the loss of a loved one to suicide: It is okay and important for you to reach out and ask for help as you grieve. There are ways for you to heal and ways for you to make a difference. There are whole books written for people like you who have survived such a tragic loss. Reach out. Heal yourself, touch another and in so doing you might help another to heal.

The lower you are, the higher you can reach.”

News Channel at its best
At 8 pm INDIA TV (I dont know who they belong to) channel airs this.
It is about a Tiger loving a Tigress who is 3 years elder to him and lo and behold there is a twist in the tale...they also say that there is another Tiger who loves that Tigress...
I mean News Channel should just shag on themselves....atleast leave the tigers alone so that they can fuck in peace.

Love!!
This is not about me...but a girl who i bumped into through a forum....and she is in love with a guy named James. She has a plan and i must say it is one of the best i have heard in a very long time.
What i like you to do is read this
I have a friend who was about to get married and his birthday was coming up...his to be wife messaged his friends and told us to record a audio and wish him birthday and say things about him.
All of us got together at a friends place and started singing birthday song and sent a mail across.

Friends
In the year 1977 my Mum started her FYBSc in chemistry where she had met some people and a small group of 10 people including guys and girls were created by the year 1978.
Zoom into future year 2008, that 10 people group is a now a massive gang of 40 people including spouse and kids. And they meet each other once in 2 months with all family members for a outdoor trip or a meeting at someone's place. If i think of such thing happening at today's time i find it very difficult to forsee it...
I have seen them fighting...bitching...but they kinda patch up without anyone saying sorry or forgiving.....in the end friends are friends....they are our second family.
Why am i writing this...friday aunt called us and said to come to their place as she has organised a get-together...and i am the one who never lets the chance pass by for meeting them. The reason for the get-together was that her daughter is gonna get engaged and we all are into inviting the guy into our group...first one....
It was 9 pm when the guy reached the place with the girl and group of kids were the cheerleaders into inviting him. So we had to hold a placard of his name and WELCOME into our group. He was dazed, bamboozled and other terms related to both. After that there was a small reception where the uncles, aunties and kids introducing themselves to the guy.....
Later the guy introduced himself to the whole lot of 40 people on what he does and how they met...it was an interview session. Later the uncles and aunts met him for some one on one or normal chit chat....
When i say my friends that i am going to meet my mom's gang and they say no way.....that is not possible...how are they connected to each other...what i have seen is that they don't interfere in each other's life. No grudges....plain fun....tease....pull legs....and there is one kind of atmosphere which is happy happy (thats the best way I can describe it) everyone laughing and also small arguments which keep on going from meet to meet....
Hoping this friendship never ends!!!! (touch wood)

Marriage
Just came back from a cousin wedding and i must say meeting up with relatives is so much fun. I have lots of brothers and almost all of them are married, their wives (ie my Bhabhis) always are pestering me to be next one who will walk on the isle soon. When we meet, i am kind of surrounded by them and asked questions on "when you gonna get married?", "are you seeing anyone?", "what kind of girl do you like?", "send me your biodata" but it is so much fun answering them and getting a reply back. (also love the fact that i am centre of attraction)
There is one indian term, "Marriage is like a sweet, those who eat it suffer and those who don't eat it suffer"
Well for my defence which i haven't told them yet is....i am a commitment phobiac dunno but hate to give out promises. And to be with someone for your whole life you have to take that deep plunge, there was a good comment from a guy who i went to do my tattoo from "Marriage in India is just a certificate, you never know what goes behind the doors"
I would not mind going for a live in relationship for a while just to know how things go on for a while. If i am into something, I love to give 100% of myself and don't expect half measures from people i am working with.
Just talking my Uncle said what are you going to do for your marriage and then we started making grand plans. Well i would love to go for a court marriage and then take my baarat (the people i know near and dear) to Goa, have a 2 day fest where it will be all informal with dance on the beach and fun in the casino.
At the end of the day everyone laughed and went back home.
