Here I Am..This..is Me...

A small wish of a little child called me,to have a little brother.... was granted on this day of November, by the great god of the heavens above.... It's a boy...Wohoo..... My parents were overjoyed....and of course... I was estatic....finally I got a little brother that I had always...wished for.. Today when I think back after so many years... I see that little boy,who has grown over the years... through school,college.... and now on the way to become an MD... A little tear escapes the eye...when I remember the wonderful times we spent together as children,watching the Jackie Chan movies, eating those hidden chocolates. Learning about cars and bikes thru Autocar..thanks to him.... Seeing the Cable tv,thru a cable wire that we stole in Dhaula Kuan. Toilet training Lucky,our cutie dog and running after her when she used to run away in Delhi... The Paav Bhaji in Sarojini Nagar and the Pilot Pens in NPS... The Optimist sailing trips that we both used to dread, g...

Life can't be defined in s simple word.. but I would like to define it in one word..."SIMPLE". Actually life is thats what it is simple,it's us who make it utterly complicated... We get entangled in our jobs,our work..our play.. that we simply forget to live life... Life is meant to be lived...and enjoyed.... Life is pretty much normal and same for everyone... It's how we live it...that makes a difference... Also I guess,it's how we react to situations that makes us who we are and how we shape up.... I used to regret many failures and losses in my life..... and used to mope over every sad or unfortunate incident that happened in my life.... Now nearing the end of 2010.... a end of one decade that began in 2000.... As I look back...I see more things that I have achieved... and many things that I have failed....in these ten long years... Fortunately,I have started to focus on the things that I have achieved... and that are invaluable to me toda...

"i don't get mad when people talk behind my back, i feel loved because so many people are thinking about me!"

How is it..that today my life seems the same place as if it was yesterday... That my life seemed to go nowhere...and yet.. today I seem to be somewhere where I always wanted to be... Life does seem a little different... Life seems more joyous..and a bit more playful... My life seems to have changed ever since a past 6 months... Is the change due to my growing old,or becoming mature... or is it due to the life changes...that I am going through... My life seemed to be stagnant.... and I seemed to be slipping deep into depression... and the quicksand of life... Then along came some new things,some awards and some recognitions... Some care and some support from loved ones... I started to see life in a different perspective....... I decided to finally live "LIFE"than simply going day by day, as I usually used to do... I wanted to experience Life ...and not be just a silent spectator...... I am going to live today....this very moment....

Wonderful...Superb..Fantastic... Diwali enthralled me with the charm of the festival season... and made me thank god for his blessings... and I expressed gratitude for all I had.. I spent yet another Diwali with my parents...still single and going strong... Life has been a series of ups and down since every diwali... People who were there with me last Diwali are no more part of my life.... New friends and new accquaintances are here...with me today.... And I have seemed to leave my sad sorry self...at last Diwali... I spent the day with mom at Express Avenue Mall.. drinking lots of cuppa of coffee and buying shoes and new dresses.... in short spent a lot of quality time with mom... and apart from that spent a lot of moolah... People say the 1crore is the new 1lakh.... and the new Indian generation is earning well... and since cos of that, has lots to spend... as we are moving forward every year with a younger Indian and a Wealthier India...... I seem to also ...

Diwali...aaaaaaaah Deepavali... The very name of the festival brings up sweet memories of childhood... the early morning....oil baths and the prayers before sunrise.... the wonderful mutton curry.....and the trip to the neaby temple... Nowadays...we have forgotten all that it seems... Cos in our lives we have moved away from family and friends... and Diwali seems to have no importance in our fast-paced lives.... Actually DiwalI should today hold more relavance in our already stressed lives... It teaches the need for sharing for the less fortunate and the need to strengthen family bonds and spend some quality time with family members in case... we have forgotten to do so..in this techno savvy world of ours... DIWALI shows the joy of giving to a poor person...or the people who don't have so much as we have....Just give a 200 rupees to a person for diwali for sweets and you will feel warm inside for the good deed...done... Express gratitude for your family members,and fr...
