Touch wood!!! It seems the universe is shifting itself..
May be it's like a drop from an ocean, but it matters a lot as it arises a hope, the raison d'etre...

There is no emoticon that can be used to show what my feelings have been like in past few days. I wonder if I will be able to know myself fully ever!!!

Life everyday presents me with different situations and different people, all of them to teach me something. Sometimes they frustrate me, sometimes they make me addicted to them, sometimes I want to be indifferent to them and sometimes I can't stop myself falling in love with them.

So far, what life has taught me is that live fully in present and that the consequences will take care of themselves. But I admit I am not a very good learner.

Meaningless Pursuit????

The other day I lost all data from my computer.  i had been garnering all those things very much selectively from almost everywhere. Books, movies, photographs, songs, videos, articles. Two days back the thought of losing these things would have terrified me, and today actually it does not make any difference, it has changed nothing.

The things that we rate so important in our lives are really important? Why do they seem so important if they are not actually? Why do we cling to the things whose absence does not make any difference whatsoever in our lives? Is it a meaningless pursuit only to fill the void in the life?

The Philosopher is being missed, again..

RA.ONE

I am learning...
Had Ravan been there in modern times, he would have died of embarrassment...He has only ten faces; people here have hundreds of them...

Madness

I like madness as almost every good thing has found its origin in madness...

A Few Lines...

Clouds come floating into my life,
no longer to carry rain or usher storm,
but to add colour to my sunset sky.

Rabindranath Tagore

The Expression I am Deprived of...

Angry Birds are so very lucky, at least luckier than I. They can be angry and express their anger. It is utterly disgusting when someone presents an imperative sentence in disguise of an interrogative one. The grammatical structure of the sentence leaves you with two options- Yes or no, but the way sentence is spoken does not leave you with any other option, but yes, regardless of your convenience. Your etiquettes and "idiotic altruism" imparted to you by your parents and some books stop you from showering some unpleasant statements to the person.

There are many things I need to learn, but there are very many things I need to unlearn.

Truth, Knowledge, Beauty, Humbleness and He...

There are people who make difference to your life just by being there, just by existing....

The other day after a hard day's work returned to home and switched on T.V...While was switching channels to find some sensible stuff, a face, pretty appealing to eyes, grabbed all my attention. Star World was showing Achiever's Club and that day they were interviewing Vikas Khanna, a chef who became much popular in India after his appearance in Master Chef. I already had read his biography and his blogs, but that day he was before me on the screen talking about his life, personal and professional...

Some people say that his popularity (esp. among his female fans) is much due to his looks...well in my case I would have admired him as much as i do now, even if i were blind. It is not his looks that make me so much attracted to him; nor does his title "One of the Sexiest Men Alive". It is his humbleness, his attitude, his life story and a touch of a common man in him that make me a huge fan of  his. His journey to what he  is today is very much inspirational. During his interview a few things that he said are worth a mention.

When he was asked why he went to New York when he was doing pretty well in India, the answer that he gave was fabulous: "My brother said that it is better to live one day of your life like a hero than to live a full life of an ordinary man."

He mentioned the book "The Secret" in his conversation, while he was talking about his persistent chase of his dreams. "When you want to achieve something, when you dream about something, just live for it until the universe shifts itself to make place for what you dream."

Somewhere in his conversation he said that it is very difficult to live somebody else's life. Live the way you are and live the life you want to live.

The above things are a few pearls that touched my heart. In a way they are very much known, but the way he was speaking and the way his eyes were shining when he spoke made them more real than the words of wisdom delivered by the so called scholars....

It is very difficult to fly high and still to keep your feet on ground...Vikas Khanna has very well done it. His honesty, his humbleness, his truthfulness reflect in his eyes, in his speech.

The interview made my day....

Fairy Tales and Rainbow...

Some dreams are like fairy tales. You know they will never come true, still you like them, you cherish them....they bring a smile on your face...they are as beautiful as a rainbow and as illusive as well...Their coming true can be termed no less than a miracle...and they say miracles do happen...

Back...

After a long time back to writing again. Past six months have been very much essential in determining the further course of my life. There have been many motley experiences during the past six months. Things were changing and taking unexpected course, and there were caprices of different emotions (positive and negative) playing hide and seek. But finally everything has settled down as it is meant to be. I have lived every bit of it and enjoyed it thoroughly. I have discovered some new aspects of human nature that I was completely unfamiliar with. In the procedure I discovered more of myself. I feel more elevated and ready to enjoy every surprise that life throws at me. Well, enough of background information. I will try my best not to deprive myself of the sheer pleasure of translating feelings into words and to put them in black and white.

P.S. My old blog account "Cornucopia" is dead. All my posts on "Cornucopia" are no more there... :(
