Knowing The Stranger!!!

Greetings !!!

It was a day of fun & so was the entire week. The week stared with Shrads birthday. My lovely sister turned 25 that day. Just married & got the surprise party from her companion. Surprises are always special , one realizes the importance in someone's life.

The week had less work & stress free period in stored for me at the office. The countdown has already begun for the last working day at this organization. The nearer the day comes the worst it feels. Emotional attachment of people & place is making me feel lame. But we should not forget that the growth is of prime importance in our life ! Finally,The week ended with excellent movies at home, family gathering & dinner at a beautiful theme restaurant with family. Hence it was a happy happy week !

This week was special due to another purpose as well. The week has opened up certain changes for me in life. Certain permanent changes of life . After the new job hunt, it is now partner hunt. It actually brought a lot of anxiety with reference to what I want from life & what I want for the entire lifetime ! Lots of brainstorming , lots of introspection has happened during this week. Tried hard to find out the faults of self & tried to change them till a lot of extent. It is a very big decision of life, one needs to introspect & must get mentally ready before taking this decision. One needs to be crystal clear about what he/she wants from the partner & what he/she is ready to give in return.

Next Sunday is the day when I am going to meet the first one of my life. Lots of anxiety is there , lots of confusion is there ! I have no clue what I will say ! The only clarity that I have is that I will be true to her! I will be what I am ! I am going to share my priorities , my routine & my correct nature ! But the biggest confusion is that how to judge someone from the very first meeting ? The purity of heart or trueness can't be judged from FB profiles or pictures. It has to be understood from meeting ! I think , the counterpart must be under going the same mental situation ! God only knows.... He will only help in taking the right decision. This is the real beauty of an arrange marriage, only the god can help, no one else ! 

A ray of positive feeling & happiness is also coming in ! Waiting for the next sunday to come ! Waiting to see what happens next ! Little confused , little happy , little stressed & little futuristic are all my current feelings. At the end , I would like to close by quoting......

"Dilon Mein Tum Apni Betaabiyan Leke Chal Rahe Ho, Toh Zinda Ho Tum,Nazaro Mein Khwabo Ki Bijliyan Leke Chal Rahe Ho, Toh Zinda Ho Tum,Hawa Ke Jhokon Ke Jaise Aazad Rehna Seekho,Tum Ek Dariya Ke Jaise Lehron Mein Behna Seekho, Har Ek Lamhe Se Tum Milo Khole Apni Baahein,Har Ek Pal Ek Naya Samaa Dekhe ye nigahen, Jo Apni Aankhon Mein Hairaniya Leke Chal Rahe Ho, Toh Zinda Ho Tum, Dilo Mein Tum Apni Betaabiyan Leke Chal Rahe Ho, Toh Zinda Ho Tum"

O Dear President Heart - Please reject the mercy petition of our inside Afzal Guru & Ajmal Kasab

Its been long since I blogged last time. Weeks passed by, events took place. They passed like a fraction of a second. Completion of two huge marriage events in family.Successful end to the new job hunt & now a sudden silence after eventful ceremonies. Sometimes it feels that we should stop working & keep ourselves involved in family only. With family we feel so comfortable & so protected. Life feels complete but this feeling doesn't last longer, have to get back to work & reality. We have to get back to routine & ruthless life. Sad but true. 

This week ended with successful end of a ruthless terrorist. After 12 years, the master mind was hanged till death. This move from the government is worth welcoming but it's very late. Is it not a big question to our democracy that someone has got the audacity to attack the safest place of the subcontinent. Fortunately they failed in just 14 minutes but the final verdict took 12 long years & that too after spending corers of iNR. Anyways it is said, that all is well if end is well. The mastermind went asleep forever in the lands of Tihad jail.

My today's blog is little like terrorism only. Its dedicated to our feelings & about the artificial fear which kills our feelings. We are really very timid animals. We really are afraid of so many things in life, of course I am one of the "we" group.In this fear we fail to innovate, change & stay happy & believe me this fear has no real physical existence, if we can break this , we can really be the most happiest persons on the earth. This phenomenon is actually realized by me by a very small incident. In our college days we were the group of 4. Me & 3 pretty ladies. We were quite enthusiastic & continuously taking part in various events. This time we took the assignment of preparing a small film for social awareness purpose. The theme sounded excellent but the collection of pics for the theme was damn difficult , we ventured around the entire city & clicked various pics, but we were little dissatisfied, the railway station was our last destination, we thought to stop our picture hunt for that Sunday. We were clicking some pics of the train, suddenly Karima asked us to get on the train & get down at the next station. We could not understand, actually we were stunned by her demand, because we were exactly not even knowing in which direction the train was going. But truly speaking at the bottom of our heart we all wanted to get on the train & enjoy an unexpected trip with the remaining 3 buddies. But Karima was the only one who had the audacity to initiate the proposal in front of us. With fear in mind we got in the train. I insisted several times on taking the tickets but the rest 3 ladies with me were fearless & were in mood to travel without tickets for almost 70 KMS. We were now on the train & in our own fun. We were loving one another's company. We kept on changing the bogies in the fear of being caught for traveling without ticket. We thought we will be able to escape from the TCs eyes. But we were wrong, the destiny had in stored something different for us. A TC caught us traveling & changing bogies many a times, so he caught hold of us & demanded the tickets. We confessed , lied & what not tried but we could not convince him. He took me alone to the next boggy as I was the only gentlemen in the group. Approx a team of 8 TCs were sitting & he took me & explained everything. Believe me the gang of 8 TCs humiliated me like hell by their words for 30 minutes & finally charged me 1200 INR for traveling without tickets. The irony of the situation was that the fearless ladies were safe. They did not even have to listen to a single word. Lucky they !!!! Anyways after paying 1200 Rs , I was much relaxed. I learnt a lesson that never to travel without ticket in the train, but I learnt even a bigger lesson that we should always do what we feel like doing. Though I had to hear so many things & lost almost 6 times more money than actual tickets but I could create a lifetime memory & felt satisfied that we did what we felt right. Though it was legally incorrect but this was not a crime , being happy is not a crime. We must understand to follow our heart. For this we should think from heart because mind can think only on a straight line & is too biased by our past experiences, education & etc. But heart can think beyond horizons & can bring innovations. Sometimes it is damn important to leave linearity & think in a haphazard manner. Think about it.....!!!

With this I would like to close my weekend, tomorrow is a new day & will try to be regular from next week onwards on running, writing & office affairs, after being disturbed from the routine because of some obvious reasons.

Change An Inevitable & Positive Agent.....

Scene 1 :

It was 11.45 in the morning, Abhimanyu was rushing for the lunch, Hits was still staring at the water & was not sure whether he would prefer taking bath or not. Aunty was serving hot chapatis & we were on verge of leaving for college. It was July & just the initial season of rains. All of a sudden a drizzle of rains & the entire scene was changed. A little rains & no college now. All set for a movie show at home. Abhi , opened the collections of DVDs & selected the movie & we started a late lunch movie show. Hits was also happy as his bath was postponed for some hours. Full afternoon movie & then outing. This was a day of our graduation life.

Scene 2 :

Early morning 7.00 , Abhi kicking on the bums of Hits to bring newspaper to read. Waking up with ease, getting ready for 8.00 clock class. Reaching college at 8.05 or 10 or 15, depending upon the lecturer. . Two lectures & oh god it was too much of college. Coming home or roaming out. Then lunch & all set for project work. Welcoming approximately 15 people at flat, turning the flat into a small village of buddies. Almost 10 laptops working at home, most of them downloading some songs or movies or busy surfing on social networking sites. Hardly 3 sincere project workers, 3-4 busy preparing food for the crowd & rest all in their own world. Working the same way till late night, landlord getting angry but mattering the least to the crowd & to three of us. This was a typical day of our MBA life.

Scene 3 :

Waking up @ 7.30 in the morning. Hell lot of hang over of previous day. A disturbed mind with lots of confusion & lots of pressure of the day. Going for running. Reading newspaper & discussing today's probable stock market move. Rushing to office & taking a breakfast in hurry in the fear of a late swipe in at office. Full day mails & fights,late office sittings & coming home with dissatisfaction. Fear of the same routine the next day. Dinner, big boss & sleep. This is the typical & the most common day of any corporate human being.

Life definitely changes, the life 5 years back was much different. It was much peaceful & much easy going life. But this life has money & status. Unfortunately no time to spend such hardly earned money. This actually is the real & the biggest Irony of life. We human beings are the biggest hypocrites & situation oriented, we forget to assess & understand the real happiness of life. We say that we hate such life but we keep on digging ourselves deeper & deeper into it. We don't like our office life getting disturbed by any external factor, whether it's a wedding of a close relative or someone's deteriorating health at home or an outing/trip planned by a buddy. No doubt we don't miss a business trip or a company outing, because we have to attend it by compulsion.

We have to bring changes on a routine basis, we have to come out of our shell. We must come out of work. Because work is just a part of life , it's not the life.We must bring small small changes in life which can make us happy. It's a real stress buster !!! We can relate & understand it from our own past life. We were much happy because college life had change on a daily basis. Change is really inevitable & positive for us.

The week was full of changes & the coming week will bring about even bigger changes. Because now I, myself is understanding the importance of change & allowing it to drive in my life & trying to adopt it. As it brings about growth & refreshes our mind.

One of the changes is the absence of Big Boss season 6 at 9 PM from now onwards. At the end of the season, loved the results, truly wished the defeat of Mr Imam & fortunately it happened. A wonderful & very entertaining show has come to an end.

With such philosophical note , I wish to close my day & my week. Monday is Uttarayan & then again a new week will commence.

Good night & Have a happy & safe Uttarayan.

Merciless World

It was a chilling night , she went on for a movie , just on the way back home while returning with a friend, she met with a nightmare. A proximity of cruelty must have been felt by her but it was too late. She was just 23. Can anyone imagine the wickedness of a man's mind ? The incidence was worst than even a murder. I feel that, for every minute she suffered , humanity must have been killed for several million times. Feel ashamed of our so called male dominant society, we males are so very much dominant that we are now forgetting the humanity in proving the dominance. With this incidence I feel , Kasab was slightly less cruel than these creatures. Finally she is gone. She went silent but awaken us.

Its was a sad end to the week which had in stored two retirements of legends. Mr Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar & Mr Ratan Tata. Both left their legacy behind. Actually retiring is a very strange & devastating feeling, because after doing some work so often & being involved in it so religiously, one fine morning you find yourself out of it. Really Shocking !......

A distressful week at office was an addition to my disheartened week. First time saw such an alarming mail from super bosses. A real wake up call.

In these disheartening feelings, I would like to share some lovely feelings. My this weeks' dedication is for my closest of the buddies. My affection & my emotional attachment is as intense as it was but expressing it, is as important. We had spent mumbai trips together, enjoyed sea shore wonderful friendship at Dummas. Lots & lots of gossips. Unfortunately for me, lots of lady kind of boring shoppings @ Bandra. Everything was wonderful, but the first & the last party was the best one of it . The time spent was really special & will stay precious forever. Little caring & sharing matters a lot. Wish this stays intact forever. But In all this I am missing one person , my sweet little extra emotional sister, Shrusti. Wish I can get her back,piddling of distance has intervened in between due to misunderstandings & immaturity, but was not intentional. Wish she understands it some day...

With this note , I wish to close my day & start a fresh week with a happy & wonderful Sunday. This time no washing of clothes , fortunately, will meet one of my sweetest of the cousins, a probable lunch at a very close friend. I think, you must be feeling I am writing every friend as close one but actually my life is moving in & around my family & a set of my heart touching friends only. Hence they all are really special for me.

So, broadly speaking,The week had more of pain & hardship than love & affection. It mirrored me to the real mercilessness of this cruel world.

See you soon & Good Night 

First Blog.....


It's been a Wonderful experience start writing blog for the first time. Love sharing self with others.

Today was an end to a quite happening week. A week with lots of good & some worst experiences. A volatile market week with ups & downs. Modi clearing another move towards the post of the PM. One of the most cruel gang rape in the capital. A real question to the humanity. A real question to the society & security of women of our society. An eye opener to the judiciary system, a real change requisite in the laws. Need of saudi arab laws & what not !.....

Personally also , it was a little happy & hard week for me. Cousin got engaged after his long wait of a perfect bride. Had heavy load of work, fight at office, new kid at office , lots of new learning also took place during this week.

First , let me introduce myself, basically I am a loan officer at a company & hence routine fights , unnecessary mail trails are part & parcel of my life. A happy bachelor living with buddies in the streets of the financial capital of Gujarat. Loving music, reading , roaming , buddying.

This week , I m specially writing this blog to dedicate my real happiness for my one of the closest buddy, Abhimanyu. 20th was his 25th birthday,not for his birthday but for the companion that he has got. A wonderful friendly companion getting cake at 12 at night , delighting him for his best birthday surprise next day & spending the entire day with him. Gifting him With the no of gifts as The no of years of his life. Especially that boxer was outstanding  not that but the story behind that , i feel sorry for Kripali. 

Abhi, I am really happy for you.

Anyways its too late now & a sunday is waiting for me.Pile of cloths lying to be washed on a Sunday. Dabang 2 with buddies, Marathon practice & Little Gita gyan is all set for my Sunday & yes,Big boss season 6 should not be forgotten.

But the biggest of all , I will miss my mom. Wish I can come home & meet you up. Love you mom. Miss you. Now will be off to sleep & will meet up next Saturday.
