Divine Intervention .....

There is a saying , " Its not up to you to decide when you want to meet the Lord but its up to him, as to when he wishes to summon you ... " , which I feel is absolutely true . I used to visit Shirdi Sai baba Mandir every thursday ,when I was doing my engineering , but after I came to bangalore , it kind off subsided and after a few weeks it completely died down .
My various attempts to meet him went in vain due to some reason or the other . Finally after almost 2.5 years, he summoned me , Today i.e. on 4th Dec 2008 .It was an ultimate bliss to be seated in the Dhyana mandiram , my body was there but my mind was wandering, it was like as if I was in a deep trance and some supernatural force was engulfing me from all sides . I was completely lost for a few minutes, there are no words to describe the experience , you just have to experience it for yourself :-)
Hopefully he would like to meet me more often in the coming days ....

Om Sai Ram !

Cricket Matches becoming boring ?

I was watching the 5th ODI between India Vs England and suddenly I realised that , matches these days are not that interesting . India , no doubt is performing well and are moving up in the points table, but somehow I am missing those nail biting finishes where India messes up the game badly till the 30 th over of the 2nd Innings and suddenly one or two players play out of the skin to save the match for India. Even though Indian cricket team is performing excellently well , I somehow am missing those matches which go down right to the last ball of the last over . These matches nowadays are all pretty one-sided and hence it doesn't generate any interest in the viewers. I hope matches become interesting in the near future and Team India keeps up its winning momentum.

Deportment Differences...

I have always been pondering over this thought, as to why people keep behaving so differently , sometimes they appear to be so close and make you feel comfortable and the very next moment they become so cold , as if you are a complete stranger. The other day I was chatting with a friend of mine , it was just a general and normal conversation and suddenly my friend stops responding to my messages . My friend's status was "AVAILABLE" thou there was no response . My constant pings of "u there ?" , "r u busy ? " were left unanswered . I accept that probably he/she might have been busy , but then messages like " do get back to me , when you are free .." were also left unanswered. What surprises me is that, how the same person can behave so differently within such a short span of time ?

Am I at fault in expecting others to follow certain basic rules ?

Should I continue to trust them and share my joys and sorrows with them ?

Does this happen with all of you ? or is it that I am just over reacting to this situation ?

I think sometimes its better to wait for an answer then to start probing for the answer yourself ... :-)

A Sweet Pain called Love

When people ask me why I let you go,
I just smile and give a distant reply,
They dont realise that I still love you,
That I still need to get over you,
That you left your mark right on my heart,
They dont know the pain that I feel,
Of trying to let you go,
Because I realised a long time ago,
You would never love me,
the way I still love you!

Strange ...but True

"Love is ironic. Only when you hurt someone they realize they truly love you. We shall always fall in love with the people who break our hearts. Love gushes out of the ruptures of a broken heart and then sends shivers to the whole of our existence. Love has to come out somehow and that is usually through pain and hurting. A heart which is unwilling to be broken, is unable to love. Similarly, if you cannot break someone's heart, it is a sign that they shall never truly love you. "

House Hunting ........

The thunders in the sky roared as we started of our hunt today .... The sky was gray with shades of black clouds fast approaching ... Ajay had left for chennai , so it was upto me and Ravi to continue the hunt . We were in for some rough time as we dint have any contact number but only the name of the apartments , so we went about enquiring from junction to junction and ended up travelling 16 Km for nothing .. :-( . We then went to C V Raman Nagar DRDO Quarters , the place looked amazing but then there were no houses available for rent , so we moved on to G M Palya , the place looked good but all the TOLET signs were posted by agents . At the end we inspected one 2 bhk flat which had all the required amenities with furnishing, but they were a bit reluctant to give out to bachelors , so we just moved on.

It was getting darker by the minute , so we had just one option left , call up Ganesh , cos "CASCADES" was the only option left . We reached CASCADES and went to inspect the 4th floor house ( the last house we saw was in the opposite apartment on ground floor ) . This apartment had a capsule lift , swimming pool , tennis court , gym , badminton/ basketball court .
The view from the top was amazing , it was a good ventilated house , with all the wood work done and a piped gas connection.

The actual fun started here , as we stepped out , the rain started to pour , it poured and poured and poured .. phew... it just kept on pouring . We were stuck there some 20 Km away from home with rain lashing at full speed , we spent around 1 hour in the parking lot spending time with Pragathi ... ;-) Ahem ... Ahem .... more about her in the next post ...

After 1 hour waiting , we decided we would leave and started of in the rain , we travelled 20 Km in the rain .... It was one HELLL Of a ride ... Just amazing !!! We reached home in 40 min completely drenched from head to toe :D .After a long time , had such an enjoyable ride .... all credit goes to Ravi ;-) .... U ROCK BUDDY !!!

A Touching Story .....

One night, a guy and girl were driving home from the movies. The boy sensed that there was something wrong because of the painful silence they shared that night. The girl asked the boy to pull over because she wanted to talk. She told him that her feelings had changed, and it was time for them to move on. A silent tear fell down his cheek as he reached into his pocket and gave her a folded note. At that moment, a drunk driver was speeding down that very same street. The driver swerved right into the boys side of the car, killing him. Miraculously, the girl survived. Remembering the note he had given her, she took it out of her pocket. She began to read it : "Without your love I would die."

Irreplacable ....

Another month, Another year,
Another smile, Another tear.
Another winter and another summer too
But there can never be another you.

How true , you never know the worth of a person when they are there , only when they have left, you realize their worth. Relationships are to be handled sensitively because even a small misunderstanding can break it into a million pieces . Its all in your hands whether you want to make or break your relationship and believe me once its broken its very very hard to patch it up again . Trust is the most important element in a relationship and once its lost , you can never get it back.

Capturing Life

I have developed a passion for "capturing life". I know you all might be wondering as to what "capturing life" is all about ... ok then let me put it in more simpler terms . I have actually developed a passion for photography , hold on hold on ... I am not a professional , I am still an amateur you see :-) and I have a long way to go before I become a professional like my dad . Yeah its in my blood you see ;-) , my dad had won many awards and trophies for his photographic skills. In this post I would like to share with you some pics which I had clicked during my previous visit to my native place. Comments on them are invited.

Awakening of the new "ME"

Its been some time , since I had updated my blog , so just thought I would share my feelings :-) . Today I am feeling really good , you may ask me why ? .... The reason is ..over the past few days my outlook of life has changed . I know that I had committed mistakes in life , some of which even though I still regret..... have not been forgiven , but the past few months have changed my way of thinking, it has changed my approach towards life and more importantly it has taught me how to lead life.
Its mistakes that teach you a great deal in life and I am happy that I have learn't such lessons early in life.The teaching is so effective that never again in my life, I am gonna repeat it and it has also taught me how to be cautious in taking decisions and how to judge people. Its not mistakes alone that has taught me but also the people around me who have helped me in learning such lessons , so I am really thankful to all of them and whether you guys like it or not from today you are gonna see a new "ME" .

I Miss You

I miss you when something really good happens, because you're the one I want to share it with. I miss you when something is troubling me, because you're the one who understands me so well. I miss you when I laugh and cry, because I know that you are the one that makes my laughter grow, and my tears disappear. I miss you all the time, but I miss you the most when I lay awake at night, and think of all the wonderful times that we spent with each other for those were some of the best and most memorable times of my life. Hope you come back to me ..........

Things I Love To Hate

Everyone talks about things they love , but I would like to talk about things or characteristics which I hate , firstly

1. People who are selfish -

I really hate people who think only about themselves all the time , but expect help and favours from others. I have seen quite a few people in my life who approach others for a "purpose" and once that is completed , they never care to look back . There are people who are so ignorantly selfish that they feel that they are born to rule the world and everyone else is supposed to serve them.

My Message for them : " What you give is what you get ! You sit there doing nothing no one is gonna do u any good , people might help you for a few days but then after that, they will care a damn about you... Only if you lend a helping hand to others , others will lend you one , atleast now get a life dude !! "

2. People who boast about themself excessively -

I have nothing against people who tell others about their achievements , but there are people who keep boasting about themselves in front of others as if they are the only ones who have ever done it , surprisingly people who have done better things than them stay quiet and mum . I really hate those people , whenever you are talking to someone you should have the minimum courtesy to see if the opposite person is really interested in what you are saying. There are another category of people who not only boast about themselves but also demean others and try to rub their superiority over others. I really dont understand what sort of satisfaction they get by doing such things :-|

My message for them : " I know your better than me and may be better than others , but I dont have the time to hear about your self proclaimed achievements , please stay away from me, I am not interested "

3. People who know nothing but are ignorant to the fact that they know nothing -

These people are so ignorant that they want to squeeze oil out of sand !! Yaa you read it right , such people do exist and when you tell them thats impossible , you are labelled as a person without commitment :-) and as the saying goes " You can probably squeeze oil out of sand but you can't change an ignorant person "

My message for them : " I appreciate your commitment towards squeezing oil out of sand , but I dont have such commitments in my life , so don't drag me into this"

4. Partiality -

I hate partiality in all forms , why is it that people are so partial towards someone or some particular group ???? In case of special reasons such as Physical illness or economy , I support the reservation given to such categories , but if you are competing for something which has been commonly imparted to all and everyone is at the same level , then the judgment should be impartial . Its on the merit of an individual that you should provide him an opportunity and not because of caste,creed,religion or lingual feelings.

My message for them : " If you really want them , then why provide a competition in the first place ? You think others have no better work ... ? Talent will last forever but not partiality "

I think there are many more small small things that I hate , will update them some other time.

Some Relationships have no name !!

Some relationships have no name...
The bonds are invisible but when broken cause pain...
There's no fear of a loss nor hope of a gain...
Some relationships have no name....
The matters of heart are beyond the brain
They start with a drizzle of desire then it never stops to rain....
The gift is a curse when a boon is the bane......
Some relationships have no name !!...some relationships have no name !!...
so lets play with spirit if this life is a game....
Some relationships have no name....
