Im a GOOGLE Addict !

Image
In this world there are so many addictions. Some people find themselves addicted to chocolates or ice creams, Others are addicted to those things that make them high, give them the feeling of overcoming their inhibitions and they become addcited to drugs. Some guys are addicted to technology, the newer the better. Girls are addicted to Shopping. My sister is addicted to cosmetics. Once a cosmetic company of her choice launches their new eye make/lipstick/gloss/blusher/nail paints etc. my sister grabs it all. It appears that she sometimes earn only to spend it on Lakme, Oriflame, Avon, Elle, Maybelline and Revlon. ( I hope my sis never reads it.. ooops) ♥♥♥ Coming on my self analysis. Im addicted to nothing but one thing in particular and that is http://www.google.com/  The very useful search engine which I reckon is the best.☺ I think Google is something that I want everywhere to be with me. when Im working or not working, when Im in office or at home, when I am cooking a meal or p

Keeping up the spirit

hi all.. my heart melts and reaches out to such people who are battling with their life while gifting away their talent to the world.  I feel so small in front of them and so untalented. They have dealt so much with life and they are continuing with it every day. Recently my sis got a packet of greeting cards and small best wishes cards on which some very b'ful paintings were made. I asked the reason for getting the whole lot and she said "look at the backside of the card" when I turned over I saw a small symbol of two people holding their art brushes in their mouth and between their toes :(  They paintings and artists are promoted by an org called Indian Mouth and Foot Painting Artists, by engaging highly talented Indian mouth and foot painting artists. All the artists either draw/paint by holding the art brushes in their mouths or between their toes since they have their limbs amputed due to certain reason or the spine has been completed got bad while other a

IS Quitting a job an easy thing?

Image
Since this Monday I have been performing quite poor in terms of my job ! At times, I feel like I really should not do any WORK at all as working in office is against the NATURAL LAW. But then living and enjoying life in better quality is not so freaking against the NATURAL LAW.   Why I feel I should quit working is bcoz I sometimes hit the downs from ' the ups and downs of life' and I become sad and think that someone better than me should sit on my chair.  But then I re-think what are my chances out there if i quit my present job of a legal editor. then these jobs come to my mind lets analyse if i can do them. 1)   I can be a Painter : You have seen my art work already but for those who haven't its " here " So, do u think I can exhibit them and earn some bucks if not fame. :) but painting needs INSPIRATION and trust me I get hardly inspired more than twice in a month.  2) I can be a Macaroni specialist :  These days everyone has to master somet

Family:)

I read this short story on a site; What is a FAMILY? A kid from a broken family replied : Father and Mother I love you. I actually took a couple of minutes to realise what does Family actually mean to me. And then I found the answer. Its my Father and two mothers my real sister and my half brother who actually spent a lot of time pampering me with the world's not so very best things but they gave me the years of full enjoyment. My father has spent his more than half life living with my mom, and bringing up my sister along with ME. My step mom and her two kids [my half bro and his sis (now no more, may her soul RIP)] lived with her in another state where she worked  as lecturer in a State College. In India a man having two wives is still considered a taboo however, we never felt the same. Maybe God wanted us to be this way and we accepted. Laughter was all I can still remember echoing in my ears. When my step mom used to visit us along with her kids in summer vacations

Invitation to Social sites.THANKS BUT NO THANKS

Image
Recently I read an article in one of those Sunday newspaper Mags which talked about "Spending too much time on Social Networking Sites works like an addiction and can cause huge increase in stress levels" Let me clear the air here: One may think that I may be a backward in techie zone but this isn't true although I have never been a huge fan of any of So-called- Social Networking sites ! I have never been connected to anyone through FaceBook/Twitter/Orkut ect. Few Years back, when Orkut was on height My sister also was on Orkut but I never had an independent page for my own friends since I believed that people whom I met in class rooms really didnt need to hover as clouds on ME all the time even when I am outside the class.. Being with friends during the half of the day and then spending the other half on any networking website and THAT AGAIN WITH THEM was kind of wastage of time for me. Seriously.. Then I found a good reason to stay away ! I saw some of my good cou

Friendship

Image
I think.. Friendship is a beautiful bridge of thoughts from one heart to another. It is like a complete rainbow from one end to another and it becomes visible in all its colors only when the storm crosses my heart.. and when the sun shines I see you standing there... bright and like an arched door so that i can enter it... For me..  Friendship is like a bark of tree that joins the top most sunlit leaf with the deepest root in the earth. Friendship for me is the most pious and purest feeling that I have ever felt. I can't thank enough to those who have stood with me through the test of time rather than being fair weather friends Thank You for being there with me. Looking forward to share the best with you always. CIAO

Recurring dreams

Have u ever dreamt of one thing again and again.. I m talking about the sort of dream when we see it and it recurs after a week or a month. The same thing u see it and then u think in the dream that you have seen it before but that too in the dream..   I remember seeing one dream recurring but it was bad since it used to be horrendous and a nightmare for me ! Some History before narration: I remember somehow my days in Kindergarten. And that I used to go with my sister in some montessory school and I remember a party also which was I think annual day celebrations or something. The school was primary one with upto 5 grades only I was in the kindergarten at that time and my sis was in her 3rd grade. I remember the pain in my ears when all the kids in my class used to cry all day but there was one window where I used to sit and never cried since I could see my mom coming everyday from there to pick me up. .. I rememer that window clearly. Once my sister finshed her 3rd class over the

I grew old this JULY

Falling raindrops from the sky above me and feeling them on my face, smelling the dew on flowers.. walking on the rocky regions bare footed feeling their unique surface.. sipping coffee alone in the best coffee shops in New Delhi and taking a stroll under the navy blue sky.. feeling the breeze in my hair and seeing my paycheck.. sharing clothes with friends and enjoying the sun on swings... and also hearing my friends disturbing talks selflessly.(I know u r reading this) All of the above give me a unique sense of pleasure.  From past many months I was savouring this pleasure.. therefore, I could not come here..and talk with you about it.   I find pleasure in many things just like all of you but all of the above I have enjoyed watching myself grow. On 4th July I turned 24 years OLD. yes the number is still less but I see myself as turning into an "old soul" very soon. THE  HYPER ME  : I have seen that in my pre-teen years I used to have a lot of mood swings and I was always

How I spent my 100 bucks

Image
Well, im usually called a spendthrift. I equally get negative remarks for being this as I swear I don't buy things they get stuck to my bill SOMEHOW! Let me tell you how : After being employed for a while now... I thought about using my money on buying some home decos, just some holiday lights sort of buying not-too-plush-over-the-capacity-kinda. So in need of beautifying my house, I took my mom, to one of those shops where we could find some housey stuff.  We searched good stuff, but they were again over-my-capacity-of-buying-sort-of (I have no clue when people are empty pockets {like me} why do they go for shopping, huh???) .. so I just went looking to one area of that big long shop (its big in lengthwise not breadth wise) and found a nice corner where some chinese stuffs were stuffed. There were good chinese glass paintings, chinese mats, wall hangings so many Made-in-China types. They were unique and a message was also attached to that

Have you ever given a thought on your own Love Story ever? How you found that Mr. Imperfect and how gained confidence after showing "him" that you were always right since the beginning !!! In recent times I found two captivating romances.. I refer them to all those, who think they can manage reading tragic love stories. Because with tears in eyes only few people can read. Thomas Hardy a King of Romance..  Far From the Madding Crowd.. is one novel I think I will never forget.. it connects to every girl in some way or the other. you may hate the heroine in the beginning but you love everyone's character at the end.. you will feel for them..  three heroes of different styles and outlooks... heroin's vanity dominates her character ...tragic turn..... happy ending... While I was coming back from work I found a bookseller on the road, selling  new books for dirt cheap prices. I bought this... "LOVE STORY" a 1970's rich versus poor tale... a love marr

Lately, I asked my mum why we left going to the Cheshire homes which we used to visit when we were small and the blind schools to encourage the blind children while they struggled with their life? I asked more, as to why we don't anymore go to the old age homes and orphanages to serve? My mum replied, " whatever we as parents wanted to inculcate in you and teach you, I think you have learnt it, it's time now, you have realized why we used to visit  those places !" I was a little confused, I asked a simple question, why we don't go anymore there? and she answered me in circles.  She then added, "We used to go to those places, because we wanted you to be a person who is tender and can thank God that you have got a chance to serve the humanity, isn't this philosophical?" She continued,"We used to go together, but after a while, we thought that Now, it's time for you to think and decide, do you want to go or not? That you must continue to vi

In mood to change

Every New Year.. I think I must change something or the other I have no idea exactly what I want to C-h-a-n-g-e this year but then there's something that needs to be closed and new things are eager to come out of the box ! A small ray of optimism has formed in my heart... Maybe this time I will succeed in my attempts is what all I think these days. . Want to walk on new paths and find new ways. The hard work I am sure.. will one day pay. Prayers for all of you
