Marriage celebration cum school reunion

Saturday morning, 27th Feb, 2016, on the wheels were Prati, Sara, Kanchi, Nutu and me... As we left behind our respective houses, slowly after years it was when we all were together. Heading towards the event of one of our school days friend Suppu's wedding. We all seated comfortable in Prati's Amaze which actually amazed us while she drove. It was so much fun to be together after so many years. Everyone was busy in their lives and different career that they chose post our SSC. Though few of us were in touch but not all. Ideally we should be talking about our lives or at least about the old days but... .... they were yawning. Indeed Saturday weekend is meant to be relaxing while we forced ourselves to get up on usual time of weekdays and get ready. Not that getting ready was a matter of complaint, it could never be for girls 😜 but getting otta bed was surely a pain. The other peer pressure to keep us silent was TO-SAVE-MAKEUP-TILL-THE-LAST-CLICK... yeah we took pains to get ready, look hot and gorgeous in our own ways and the mission was to get the best shot at the reception. There were hours left and we didn't wanted to ruin our morning efforts of hours that we took sacrificing our precious sleep. But girls can never be completely quite as well no matter even if their makeup is at high stake... 😅 The mouth opener was outdated songs that were being played by Prati. Agreed that she gave us a ride but that doesn't mean to give us headache with those songs from 80's or 90's. We made faces and comments came from everyone on each song being played... Fun was getting started. The fact that we were all together was the good reason for us to know that we all were back to the memories of our childhood. While I took different selfie of everyone from the front, Nutu was damn busy with her phone, checking out her makeup, Sara, despite threatening her that her makeup will be ruined doze off, Kancu is a silent one. So me and Prati were only left with chatting. We are school days best buddies. I was more of observing how she was driving. IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME MAN! I said myself. I was completely mesmerised and went to the day dream of myself driving a car and taking my parents and friend out with me.
Well, secondary if they would risk their lives to fulfill my dream. 😂 I do feel it's a great task to drive, that too a four wheeler it's much big task, to manage accelerator, gear, steering, everything along with being present minded on road as well as inside with the passengers, but on the other hand I feel it's what do many people could do so it'll not be that difficult too.😉🙆

As we reached, getting out of car was as if someone put us to furnace, it was HOT. We climbed upstairs and reached the hall. All our eyes wanted to see was our friend Suppu in the bridal look. There was time for it, we were thirsty and there came tray of soft drink and two of us picked the orange ones while others were black. Other girls too wanted orange one, they waited... Came the next guy with only one orange filled glass... Again few waited. Finally next time he brought all orange glasses... Hehehe.... Yeah we love orange one, all of us. We slowly started our philosophies about marriage, the theme effect probably. Few said they hate it, few said they will wait for it, few happy about it while few with no thought about it. We all had our own perception about it. Though we all agreed... EK DIN KARNI PADEGI-NO MATTER WHAT! 😂 This is India after all.
Our bride came and like every bride, she was looking the most beautiful. It was her day indeed. She was the heroine of the event. The traditional Maharashtrian wedding started. We had other three Maharashtrian buddies in the group. Sitting next to Prati, I was asking her about the meaning of the ceremony, though less knowledge we have about the ceremony but I was excited about the whole event. I love to see the marriage  ritual being performed. I just get divine feeling. As it's said, "MARRIAGES ARE MADE IN HEAVEN BUT PERFORMED ON EARTH." So was this ceremony taking place on earth in front of us. The wishes came straight from the heart while witnessing the wedding for our friend,"Love is wonderful to be fallen in,
But more pleasurable is the journey to live that love within...
The divinity of a marriage have thrived from heaven to earth,
May your life blossom in this relationship ahead in this path..."
We all showered the colourful rice slowly on the couple on it being said, "SHUBH MANGAL SAVADHAN" by the Pandit. It felt funny and cute to do like that. I've seen and heard about it on TV before.
After the ceremony of SAATH PHERE the bride and groom went to get ready for the reception. In between for those who got bored and were yawning we clicked lots of selfie and Nutu clicked best pics of our newly married couple. They not only looked beautiful but were very notorious and looked very happy together.
Our stomachs were roaring for the food. Meanwhile stepping towards it we met one of our school teacher. She was very happy to see us all grown up from little girls to young ladies. Indeed she don't recognise us but it's not expected either. Faces are always remembered though names might get forgotten.
We ate our stomach full. The food was delicious. Sara and I had more of our focus on the desert, being it's fan. It was Strawberry Basundi, a new experience.   YUMMMMMMM....
We stepped back to the reception, alive for the click on the stage. There was long que which we all hate but couldn't help. Doing masti together diverted our focus and we reached the couples quicker than we thought. We congratulated the couples. Our friend who looked gorgeous from far shocked us from near view. MAKEUP over and above required was put up. This became the gossip amongst us as we drove back...
We fought for the next song to be played, we cheered up for even the saddest songs.
Most exciting number was, "CHADHI MUJHE YAARI TERI AISI JAISE DARU DESI... We shouted the lyrics in sync as it was what we felt. Even before this trip ends we had more plans being made. Our dream being making road trip to GOGOGOGOGOAAAAAAAA...
Without much ado everyone dragged me for movie NEERJA. I wanted to see it but I had told home will be back at evening which got into late evening as movie ended around 8pm! I didn't wanted to see this movie on that day, because we had such blasting day and watching a serious movie like this will shift the mood from north pole to south I knew. But we wanted to see a movie together and it was it. We were all in shock as it ended. I MISSED MY MUM so much during whole movie. I wanted to hug her tightly. I LOVE HER THE MOST... MMMMUUUAAAHHHH MOM 😘

We hugged  each other bye and the day became one of the most memorable one to be recorded in here on my blog.😊

Friendship Day! ;-)

Had a lovely day today on friendship day by meeting all me BFFs.
Sometimes life feels so blessed despite all ODDs all because I'm surely blessed to have lovely people in my life. They help me, inspire me, be with me as pillar and never let me fall, be with me at all times, even if I forget to contact without any ego make efforts to be in touch.
So many things I've learned from them and learning more...
I am sure they too feel same for me hence I am part of their life. :-)
Thank you GOD for all the friends you've given me. They are one of best people in the world! :-) 

Commitment

Sometimes, when I look at few couples who seems weird in their personalities and from outer perspective they look incompatible, well you may think I'm being judgemental about them but being an observer indeed you do judge, but when you look at their years of relationship with each other the saying looks to have been proved true, true love lies in souls.
I guess what it takes for a long lasting, happy and successful relationship is not COMPATIBILITY but ACCEPTABILITY.
We all agree that No one is perfect. But when we come to choosing or life partner we do end up expecting him/her to be perfect for us. We look at compatibility rather then the acceptance level.
Generally if you'll see, we have so many relations that we share in our day to day life. We have firstly our Parents then our siblings then cousins, other relatives and friends. Out of all only our friends are the one whom we choose. But those who are with us from always and will be with us forever are our family members and you know the strangest fact? We get our family by birth. We don't get choice. From starting we know he is my dad, she is my mom, he&/she is Bro&/Sis and so on. We never judge them. I've never heard anyone saying, I wish he was my father instead of my dad or she was my mother or so...  But when it comes to spouse, at least in today's generation it is like, so DAMN strange when I hear relationships break coz people are not happy with each other and end up with divorce and then remarriage. I'm not against divorce or remarriage but it's like when you feel like you have an option with you, people are tend to exercise the same i guess. Whereas, a true relationship is accepting others flaws and loving the person more for his/her qualities than trying to throw them out of your life and look for those qualities in someone else and then get involved with them.
Likewise I guess everyone should end up marrying every other person, because we all are unique and everyone has flaws not to forget.

Uff, these social life issues, they're not at all easy to handle... 🙆

Nothing is best forever!

The other day one of my friend looking at the newly constructed building exclaimed, WOW! I wish I would have had home in such a best building 🏢. Then the another friend said, you've not seen many good buildings yet it seems. This isn't the best one, in fact not even one of the best to what I've seen. To this conversation of theirs I wondered something, is there anything or anyone as Best forever and everything?
This best should be the best by all means and for everyone and everything. I don't think if such a thing can be possible! What makes something or someone BEST in our eyes is OUR PERCEPTION! And everyone has different perception/outlook for different matters. No two minds think alike.
Hence it's just within our mind that something or someone is BEST not otherwise it is true...
Similarly, if I apply the same theory to our life then, if whatever we do in our life if it doesn't makes others feel that that thing is good for us then it's their PERCEPTION and not that we're doing something wrong! 😛😞
Hence LOVE 😍 the things you do and be confident 💖👍✌

Na Ghar ke na Ghaat ke

In fulfilling others expectations and desires you forget your own expectations with you, your own desires and yet no one seems satisfied with you!
It feels you should not care about others expectations with you at least you'll be happy satisfying yourself.
Nahi toh na Ghar ke aur na Ghaat ke! :-D

Thank you

I'm grateful for my life for I'm born normal, because I got lovely family who loves me, cares for me, who had nurtured me and so much they've done for me, it's priceless and unexplained in words.
I'm thankful for all people that I've ever met, known, talked to because of them I've always learnt so much that I would not have learnt otherwise in books, about this life.

But I'm very very thankful for having the education that I got. I'm more mature, intelligent and could earn my living coz of it. I'm happy to have got superb teachers who not only taught me about books but about life too. They're all great people and I'm very grateful to have learnt from them all.

I'm much much thankful to have got such superb friends. They're not only intelligent but are superb persons too. Humble, understanding, mature, helpful, loving, caring and most supportive. I've learnt so much from each of my friends too. I'm lucky to have all of them in my life. They've inspired me when I needed, they supported me when I was broken, they helped me to forget all negative thoughts and helped me in having a positive look out for life. Without them, I would not have been what I'm. All my friends play very important role in my life and I'm blessed to have them in my life. May we remain friends forever. Though I know itna jaldi picha chodne wale nahi hai unlog! :-P ;-)

I'm most grateful to have been able to READ coz of which my life could take new shapes and become better. All those superb writers whose books I've read, their writing has not only inspired me but have many times given me new life, new means to live. I'm truly grateful to them all. Hoping to read more great works by great people.

Last but not least, to all those who have given me respect, who give me values, who consider me as their asset, who believe in me, who have faith in me, who trust me, who LOVE me truly, who have given me all their love and affection, may be in any form or expressed in any way. I'm very very thankful to all those lovely people.

Thank you GOD, for giving me this life!
I'm short of words to thank you God and I got no reason to tell you why I'm so grateful to you, you know it all, they say. So thank you for you know ALL! ;-)
:-)

May God keep their blessings on me and all of us, forever.

First first...

This is something unique and new... There is always first, as they say... This is for first time for me too!
Actually, I never celebrated my birthday publicly, it never came during school days or college days (though there are possibilities that I didn't went to college, even if it would have come! :-P), nor when I was at office (was on audits most of the time...) and rarest rarely it once happened that it was on day I had lecture at class, back in 2009 I guess! I was literally not interested in going to class. I felt shy! Yeah, I can too be shy sometimes! ;-) :-P but I went and felt very embarrassing too when people wished me, though I wished no one would have!
I can only accept my family and friends to wish me, coz I feel that it matters to them at some level that I'm in their life. Rest, other world, just coz they come to know about it and wish me, I don't find any sense!?
May be because of this pattern, I never liked accepting the fact that today of my birthday. I never go and tell anyone that, "Hey, you know what!? TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY!" I never did that. In fact round about I feel no one should know it's my birthday. I know it's damn strange but I feel awkward, I don't know what to say or how to react when someone whom I don't expect to wish me, wishes me?!
I mean it's good that it's my birthday but what is so much special in it, I feel. I just want this day to be normal, like any other day. I just want to be with family and close friends. Before I didn't had this much acceptance too but now over the years I've learnt to accept it that it cannot be completely normal day. My Mom asks me what special I want to eat and they make me that, I brothers plan something surprising, my friends too come to my place and unexpectedly looking them I feel good. This much of celebration is quite enough for me. Before I even felt shy to cut cake, now I do it normally...
My Family wishes me sharp at 12am, if by any chance I'm asleep I'm woken up and wished. My best friends too call on 12, all are KUMBHAKARAN's still wake up till 12am and take efforts (or purposely to trouble me! :-P) call me or text me. My cousins also call at 12am. God! Next day I even forget whether the B'day is over yesterday night itself or still remaining! Ha ha ha... :-D
Before I had hidden my birthday date from social networking sites too. But now I keep it visible (don't faint, it's true! :-P) I also reply thanks to all those who wish me. Now I have gathered this much of acceptance...
But this year it's most unique than any other year it could be. My birthday on the EXAM day! Wow I'm so damn EXCITED! :-\ LOL... I have EXAM on the very day! Wow...

I want to switch off my mobile phone. But that would be so RUDE of ME! :O :-\ I know... I know... But I don't know what to do... Obviously no time to feel any special about this day, as I like.
But then others do feel it to be special and I respect that they love me for whatever and whoever I'm!
Just want to thank all those people who take efforts and remember me and my existence in this world!
I wish over the years I too accept it as a special day and learn to react normally how other people do.

PS: Best part is I'm not at office. They cut cake and ask to distribute chocolates to each and every colleague. This is beyond my imagination. I would have bunk office had I had it on the day, I'm sure! :-P
It is so embarrassing... :-D I never did that ever in my life (till now) ;-)
I'm MAD! I know...

One thing I do normally is I  accept GIFTS from anyone happily, for IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! :-)

How sick of ME! :-\

Today is my best friends birthday and I called her now instead of calling her yesterday night at 12 like we do!
I don't know how I got confused and thought it to be on Monday, 5th where it's on 3rd of May!
But she is my sweetheart of all times. The way she is, I just hope she remain so forever...
I've learnt so much from her and the learning still continues. She is girl with NO ego at all. She never argues, never complains, never demands...
She is best though I feel I don't deserve her but may be God is great to have given me a friend like her. May be to show me how good heart always wins over everything. She is one of the best human beings I've ever met.

Today I just wish from God that may all her remaining life she be just like this, the way she is since years! May she get good health, wealth, prosperity and success. May all her dreams come true. And all the pains she had gone through, may they never return back to her. May she be blessed with all the happiness that she deserve!

Many many happy returns of the day my Savi! :-*
May we remain friends forever and ever and ever...

A husband like ME!

I always try and understand my friends. Yesterday I and Babbu were chatting. In between she stopped replying. I waited and waited but she didn't reply. Finally I decided to not message again asking for reply.
Today morning I got message, Hey, I had slept yesterday... (grin smiley!)

I replied, It's okay! :-) I can understand... :-P

And I got stunning reply, I want a husband like you! :-*

After recovering from shock I replied, You will, very soon! :-P

Not SOON! I received in answer.

Bribery, sometimes works :-P

A friend, a CA, returned back from Tanzania today, where he had found employment but due to some reasons couldn't sustain more than 6 months and returned back to India. Though I was already against him going to the foreign country for full time employment but of course it's his life and he had to decide what he have to do and he decided to go but while returning he of course was worried of facing me. I've always given my frank opinion to my friends. As we all do, we never leave any chance to taunt our friends on their silly mistakes, so do I but this time I had decided to not speak anything on this matter. My family too was confident that I would say him something on this. To everyones surprise I said nothing but I didn't know to keep me impressed I would get lots of chocolates and a very delight and nice coffee pack. Bribing me! Sometimes it definitely works. ;-)

Never mind, he did not know I was not to say anything to him but I decided to let him be happy thinking his bribery worked on me.

Life is about trial and errors. We take risk and decide upon something to do. All decisions not necessary may always be right but those who stand with you even when you take wrong decisions are called true friends after all, isn't it? :-)

HELLO everyone...

It's an old story which I remembered today while remembering my friend, Amu...
I was at Sara's place, only me, Sara and her Mom. Sara had call from Amu, she was to come to her place too. Sara went to pick her up, on scooty. Sara's mom left me alone and went to neighbours, I was alone watching TV when Sara left.
After few minutes, all of sudden guests started coming in and the whole living-room was filled with people. I was alone and almost unknown to those relatives, I shifted a bit in nervousness. Thankfully Sara's mom came in last from the neighbours. I decided to hand over the remote of TV to them if they would be willing to watch some local language channel but everyone agreed humbly to watch what I was watching since a long. Without looking at anyone I was watching TV, others were talking in their Tullu language, which I obviously don't understand.
Suddenly, door opened and there emerged Amu and without any notice to the living-room she very openly and loudly announced her appearance as, HELLO EVERYONE! Suddenly everyone looked in her direction leaving their conversation in half. I was wondering whether she knows all relatives of Sara!? That she was greeting everyone like this. But soon my doubt was cleared when no one answered anything and Amu too felt weird about it. Sara came from back of Amu and looking at everyone and what Amu did I and Sara started laughing uncontrollably! Amu had thought that only I'm at house so she was carefree but unknowingly she ended up doing such a scene.

For the rest of half an hour Sara and I enjoyed this moment...
:-D

Fashion statement relations!

One of my cousin, who met me last year for the first time at one of another cousins marriage and we shared our contact. Like whole world around me, he too is on Watsapp. He always starts interviewing me and bombard with all sort of interrogations. I've myself hardly noticed what's my favourite color, food, place, subject, TV show, movie, etc etc but when he asks I've to answer it as I can't ignore him. Otherwise I've created record in avoiding unknown messengers, but he is family so I had to entertain, though only upto a limit I can! I think and answer. But all of sudden, a weird question came up today and it was, don't you have a boyfriend? More than being shocked for this question I was laughing, it sounded funny. Rather than answering I kept smiling for few mins looking at the question. Finally I typed, what's reality and that is NO!
I wondered what he might have thought of me that me being a girl from Mumbai, big city it's deemed that I would be in relationship! Even if it would be fake one but still it's kinda in fashion these days to employ yourself a boyfriend or a girlfriend. If you don't have a boyfriend or girlfriend then you're not cool, isn't it? Well don't know... Never pondered much about it. I have male friends but good that they're just friends and nothing more coz I liked it that way and happy that it remained so. Of course future can always be different and surprising but I have my own choices and preferences and it would be difficult for someone to fit into it! :-P
As for I don't believe in messaging unknowns and somehow just chatting with them and then you end up meeting and blah blah... It's all crap... I believe into only talking and sharing with people whom I know very personally, whom I've seen in real, talked in real. That's the way I like it to be. I've heard people being friends on some social networking sites and then they share their contact and along with chatting, they start talking and may be even meet but then either of one shows true picture and the whole think come out to be fake and baseless and other end up being hurt. What rubbish! I hate all such things and whether hurt or whatever I never except unknown calls, never reply messages from unknowns, block people on Watsapp who message me but whom I don't know, yes I've done that! It's better to avoid any fake things before it starts than waste your time. Life is too short to waste behind trying to know someone whom you never knew! There are many people in my life whom I know and I'm happy that they're in my life and I would love to find time to maintain my relationship with them rather than go for some fake ones.
For fun I can't imagine of getting in relationship with someone. As I always say, NO relationship is better than BAD relationship!
I'm happy SINGLE. Very happy in fact! :-)
Everything has it's right time in your Life and when that time comes you do end up being into it and enjoy that new experience. Till then enjoy present and hope best for the future! :-)

P. S. Try to find real happiness rather than get trapped into fiction world. It could be dangerous sometimes. Social networks are to be in touch with those whom you knew but are away from you. So stay in touch with your loved ones and make better use of technology.

2013 is gone!

Happy Realisation!
Hmmm... not actually...
2 days I've been lost... lost in dreams... of???? no no... not of, but in... in real dreams... coz I was sleeping either literally or mentally...
On 31st I had night-out with my friends to Sara's house. We all were there myself, Sara of course, Ammu, Babbu, Vrushi, Prati, Suppi. We played games, danced, sang, ate, again danced, played games, lastly had lots of chit-chats through TRUTH OR DARE?! Since we didn't had any dare, it was all about truth! :-P
In all this the clock showed it's hands on 5am. Still there were few sleepless including me but I had to wake up at 7am hence tried to sleep. With 2hrs of sleep I could sleep next day at 4pm for 2hrs again... it was enjoyable party but tiring too and this way we said good-bye to 2013 happily, may his soul RIP!

Driving passion

A week ago after attending the wedding of Sara's sister, I headed back to home but this travelling experience was different than a usual one for I was travelling via car, no not because it was a Volkswagen car (okay okay a bit because it was a VOLKSWAGEN!) but more than that because it was being driven by my friend Amu! I was mesmerized, amazed, transfixed, spell-bound and what not!? Amu took her heals off and pressing the accelerator and handling gear and steering wheel she drove the car with full confidence. My eyes were on her and hers on the road but sometimes on me too, for no offense I was caught spying on her driving, though I wasn't doing that intentionally but coz I was impressed! Phew! I explained it and relived we were. She was confident and controlled driver. I hope it was not because her Dad was seated next to her and her Mom behind her Dad!? :-P But I loved the confidence of her parents on her and to let her do what she desires.
There were people trying to break her cool by not allowing her to overtake from their right and she believed in following rules she learnt while learning driving and didn't overtook wrongly by their left. I'm proud of you Amu, coz you can drive a four wheeler, a bike, follow rules and make me always laugh by your bindas doings! :-P
:-D

Up till now my aim was to learn driving scooty but now it's also to learn driving a four wheeler! Oh how I wished I had a vehicle! :-|

The wedding day

Today was the wedding day of Sara's sister. It was my first South Indian wedding that I attended. Everyone around me looked draped in silk and dripped in Gold! I was mesmerized by the gold everyone wore. Though in my traditions too gold get preference but not this much. I've heard about it in past but experienced today. Had attended wedding from start and saw all the rituals. It was bit common but few things were new. It was shorter with regards to ceremony of wedding, ours last for 2-3hrs at least. I loved the look of the bride. It was awesome. But brides sister was too well dressed. Finally she agreed to wear the jewellery I suggested. Sara, you really looked Cinderella! ;-)
While everyone, all friends of our group, came straightening their hairs while are bit curly, Sara took efforts to curl her straight hairs and I didn't do anything and got Sara's company for my curly ones. But next time I wanna experiment with straight ones, everyone looked awesome! All my sweet babes, you all looked gorgeous! :-)

I left before the bidai, it wasn't planned so but happened like that and I think if not always but sometimes what happens happens for good for I would surely not have controlled my emotions looking everyone get emotional at that moment.
I just hate this one fact the most. Why should girls leave everyone and everything and go forever for someone? Everyone looks so happy every since the wedding gets fixed till it is done but at the end remains the emptiness everywhere... :-(
There is no solution to this cliché!

1234 get on the dance floor!

Sunday is Sara's sisters marriage and today was mehndi function for which there was dance program too! We, I, Sara, Atti, Vrush, Amu & Babbu had been practicing hard since last one week for todays dance and finally I'm happy that it happened successfully and we rocked!
B-)
We danced in synchronized way and no one forgot steps! :-P

For a change my parents wanted me to participate into it, so I could give enough time to practice and they're happy that I danced after so many years. As a child I always participated in cultural programs at schools or festivals but over a period of time I divorced extra curriculum and adopted academics! But I'm happy being back to my original self, dancing, singing, playing...
Also today was a memorable day for I met my school teacher in the function. Sara being closely accustomed to her she came to the function and I was hesitant to approach her, thinking whether she remembers me or not? I looked at her from far and couldn't gather courage to greet her finally she came to me that and called me by my name, that was surprise, and then I felt embarrassing for not approaching her first but she being down to earth came to me and talked. Later we talked for an hour or so and shared our contacts too. Her first batch of school was our class in 7th standard and I being front bencher Mam could remember me! I am glad for it. :-)
Sara, it was a rocking day am looking forward to attending South Indian marriage on Sunday, for the first time coz of you I could see these different traditions! :-*

Ups and downs of day!

Even though the start of the day was bad, yeah it was really bad and sad as well but then I dropped the stereo thoughts and moved on to other moments of the day but towards the end the day was made!

In the morning, I was walking towards my jogging track and I just placed my hands inside my pocket to protect them from cold. All of sudden I stopped noticing that my pocket felt empty while I remembered keeping a hundred rupees note in it! I turned back and one Aunty immediately asked me, noticing my puzzled look, what happened? I told her about it and decided to go back to home from same route from where I came, hoping to find it back. I walked by keeping my eyes on the road but I found nothing! Of course, so many people and school going children walk on this route and we know how people take anything from road even though that may not be belonging to them, isn't it? Irrespective of thinking that the person might come back in search of her belongings! How could we think that anything that we find on public place, just because we found it, it can belong to us? No, dude! It's not the right approach.
Never mind. I was sad initially for my irresponsible behavior. I should have been more careful. I will be in future. That's my learning from this incident. I hope the money has reached right person deserving it than me. Actually it's not about hundred rupees but about our integrity! Of course with hundred rupees neither will I go poor by losing it nor will other get rich by finding it!

The thought evaporated later with the learnings that I had to learn!

In the evening when I was chatting with my BFF, suddenly and surprisingly at one reply of mine she said happily that I've started behaving maturely!
Wow! Receiving this comment from one who would always say I'm immature and childish, is thrilling and joyous too! Though, I purposely behave childishly :-P but of course I know when to behave maturely and when can I be immature! Also, she said I should always remain the way I'm caring & understand. That's genetic actually! :-)
Not that I am any great person but I just try to make things simple around me, though at few times I do mess up things more than anything! In all I was happy that she recognized my efforts of maintaining our friendship together forever and may we remain friends forever and ever and ever.
Sometimes, we are indirectly and unknowingly attached to few person in our life beyond our imaginations. Few relations are very special and you feel it's since lifetime and not just from few years! There is an invisible knot that tie you with that person, no matter how fuzzy it gets at times but the tie never get freed but along with tough times the relations grow more stronger and you realise the importance of happy moments and that remembrance embraces the real relationship that you share!

Friends are important for life and good friends are much more important.
Cherish your friendship!

No time

It's been an era it feels that I last logged in to Facebook! No, didn't even today when I'm talking about it! Don't have time actually. Busy meeting with friends in person, hanging out with them, talking to them, dancing with them, helping them and so many things. But I know there are friends with whom I am not in touch with personally and Facebook is the place where I can know about them. I get to listen from others about what they see about mutual friends and I wonder at least once in week or month I should log in! Truth is I don't even remember about it ever and that was the time when I had created my account, I would be online most of the time and today is the day I don't log in even once in month. Many who expect me to be there do complain and I feel sad for their expectation. This is the reason I've not even thought about making account on twitter. I may sometime in future but I'm not interested now in it!

In fact I don't have time to even watch movies and read books! Could you imagine it? No na... Even I can't contend this thought. Books, my lovely books I'll soon take out time for you if not for any thing else then!

I need to plan my day now to do things that I wish to along with things that I need to.

Winter walk

For safety reasons, like every other woman I'm too bound to do things that are considered safe by myself and my parents. It involves thousands of things to be considered coz no one want to take risk of lifetime regret. Hence my willingness of going on a morning walk was at halt since I didn't had any company coz my company was on vacation post exams. Finally when she returned we planned the timing and thankfully our parents agreed to let us go out early in the morning out in each others company. Gathering too much crowd I don't like hence I didn't talk about it to anyone else but Sara! We were excited that one of the to-do-list particular will get marked as done yesterday. Just after exams I was engaged in the process of gathering accessories of comfortable morning walk. I bought track suit, shoes I had, socks and now since it's winter, my favourite season, I had jacket too with me! Everything was set and I set the alarm of 6am for I had to left at 6.30am and we were to meet at common point at 6.45am! I was excited and curious too. After sleeping for late till at least 8am I was a bit worried about getting up at 6am again! Though like all my lazy friends I'm not one who can't get otta bed early, in fact I'm a morning person and I love getting up early and doing something energetic, but there should be some work only then I find it reasonable to sacrifice sleep. Where as my friends are too lazy and not at all morning person. I also feared whether she'll wake up on time or I'll be left waiting at home, in ready to leave condition, for her call assuring that we are going. Since it's been long I've not slept early coz I am use to sleeping at around 1-2am after reading book. I was not sleepy and decided to read my current novel. Finally at 1am I forced upon to sleep so that I can wake up as I was equally worried to not leave my friend in that waiting condition. Even before alarm could ring I got up thrice and watched time. It's still time to wake up, I said to my worried brain and ordered to sleep till alarm rings! Alarm rang and I got up at a stroke. It was cold. Finally winter has knocked in Mumbai! Nothing is more happy moment than enjoying cool breeze of winter early in the morning. I got ready and messaged for assurance. I got a call back from Sara who sounded just-otta-bed like but thankfully I was wrong and she was to left from her home. I waved good-bye to Mom and left too. We met at discussed point of meet and went to the road where I knew people in large amount come for walk.
Cool breeze was entering into my system making me chill! For a start we walked for half an hour or so and had our genuine talk while walking. We noticed the surrounding, different types of people who come. It was inspiring to watch so many people caring about their health to wake up early and take effort to live life in a healthy way. There were many old age people too. I loved the scene. The walk was more enjoyable than I had thought. It was very thrilling from inside. Finally, I made one of my dream come true today that too safely.

On return journey, there was one seller selling oranges looking at which my dear friend was too tempted to eat them. I had money thankfully and I helped her in fulfilling her small wish against her help of fulfilling my big wish.
Thanks Sara, again, I know! :-P

Tomorrow morning it will be day-2 hoping to pick up pace and walk for more kms too!

Oh winter, I love you! ;-)
I wished if you could last forever! :-)

The alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Few sentences that I would like to share from this book.

Here it goes,

Everyone, when they are young, knows what their destiny is. At that point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible. They're not afraid to dream and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realise their destiny.
Mysterious force appears to be negative but actually it shows you how to realise your destiny. It prepares your spirit and your will, because there is one great truth on this planet- whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it's because that desire originated in the your soul. It's your mission on earth.

If you start out by promising what you don't even have yet, you'll lose your desire to work towards getting it.

Everything in life have it's price.

When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

I'm like everyone else- I see the world in terms of what I would like to see happen, not what actually does.

Every blessing ignored becomes a curse.

When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision.

We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.

When you possess great treasures within you, and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed.

Anyone who interferes with the destiny of another never will discover his own.

Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happen twice will surely happen a third time.

No matter what he does, every person on earth plays a central role in the history of the world. And normally he doesn't know.

Indeed it is a nice read. I liked it more, for the main character in the book and I had one thing in common, we both love travelling. He wanted to see the world and I too aspire to see if not whole world but at least famous places. I love travelling and visiting different places knowing about them and meeting new people and knowing about them as well! :-)
Though as the story proceeded further I deviated from the main character. But everyone have different story!
I loved the storyline and more or less everything about the book. There is even love story involved. I guess life and it's learnings are incomplete without love in anyones life!
:-)

P. S.: Thanks to my friend Sara who thoughtfully bought this book and shared with me.
But Sara, I understood the story in once! :-P
May be because I always read books or watch movies or mostly do anything when I can concentrate properly so that the means of learning something from it is never lost and the purpose get served and not lead to waste of time. :-) It can also be because I'm use to reading such type of books!
Never mind I'm thankful to you for giving me such a nice book, I hope this much of buttering is enough to receive more good books in future! ;-)
