The most important need of the hour is -
The requirement of sufficient food, clothing & shelter for all in India.
The focus should be right education & jobs for all concerned.
The idea should be an "all inclusive growth".
The "temples" & "mosques" are not going to help fulfill your needs & make your future brighter.
The vision of "prosperous India 2050" should be aimed at.
We all are one. India is our Mother land.
The disputes arising out of lack of understanding & communication are always created by wasted interest for their own benefit. We all need to understand that & reacting to such provocation is not going to help us or anybody., but only the people who want us to break & divide.
Be UNITED. Be TOGETHER.
Fight & voice, not only for your own self but for your country, for your people....

"feel blessed .. live life"

I've seen castles made out of sand,
Met people who believe destiny is engraved on the palm of their hands,
I've seen people change their faith,
Experienced love change into hate,
I've seen people grow younger with age,
And a bird who wouldn't fly out of an open cage,
I've seen love sold for money,
People who are devastated inside but outside they're funny,
I've seen the unicorn fall in love with the toad,
People who owned half the city have now hit the road,
I've learned to expect the unexpected,
Perfection doesn't exist, we're all defected,
Everyone cries,some just hide their tears,
They say coal turns diamond over a thousand years,
Someone may believe u are one in a million,
For others u are just another nobody in the billion.
So live life wid all that u have, cherish all ur moments Happy or Sad!! Feel blessed with what u r!! Coz Life is tooo short n we are jus here for a Moment!!

power of faith & perspective ..

"Power of faith & the perspective it brings"

I am standing on the sea shore. A ship appears & spreads her white sails to the morning breeze & starts for the ocean.
She is an object of beauty & I stand watching her till at last she fades away on the horizon, & someone at my side quietly says, "she is gone." Gone where ?
Gone from my vision, that is all;
She is just as large as. When I saw her last.

The diminished size & the total loss of sight is in me, not in her;
And just at the moment when someone at my side says, "she is gone," there are others who are watching her coming & other voices take up a joyful shout, "there she comes !!"...

"The change" !!!

"Here I find, myself, sitting in my office...thinking hard about life or d life in me..!!
how it changed frm a simple carefree college life to d strict professional life..?
how tiny pocket money changed into monthly paychecks, but fails to satisfy needs..?
how a few local denims changed into branded wardrobes, but less moments to use them.?
how a single plate of samosas changed into a full plate pizzas & burgers, but no sight of hunger..?
how a bike always in reserve changed into d car always full, but less places & less people to travel with..?
how a small round d corner coffee shop changed into chain of Cafe coffee days', but no time for a cup of coffee with a dear frnd..!!
here I m sitting in my office@night, thinking hard abt life, how it changed or how did we...?"
Missing all those precious moments & all my friends, who continue to be the most valuable part of my life of yesterdays' , today & for the tomorrows' to come...

"God Gifted"...

Today, I happened to be a part of one of the most miraculous creation of the Almighty.A musical concert performed by God gifted, mentally & physically challenged children. Though this creation seems a bit discriminatory at first sight, but the unimaginable gift in the form of immense talent, which is showered on the kids, left me speechless. It was the performance extraordinaire !! The grip on the voice, melody, beats was impeccable. They sang old hindi melodies, solo & duets, as well as some of the latest hit numbers. They danced on the beats of the current chart busters and also made us laugh by their circus gimmicks. The real shock or surprise came in the form of an end of the show announcement that most of those kids had hearing disability. Just imagine singing a song or moving on the floor, dancing with grace without being able to listen the music...
Isn't it a miracle ??
Only the supreme power above us all, knows the existence of many more strong "senses" within human access beyond the six, we happen to know & understand...
Salute to the children, their confidence to come forward & present flawless performances & also to the entire team behind the scene who made all this possible by unearthing the true & real potential from within these kids...
Thanks to my uncle Mr Atul Jogani (Bangkok) for providing me this opportunity, to be able to have exposure to this face of human reality...!!

"The first CRUSH !!! "

The First Connection

Crush, infatuation, attraction!

There are different facets of  “Relationships”.
Like Liquid, it doesn’t have a specific colour or shape.
It keeps moulding itself into different dimensions depending on the subject vessel.

I personally feel & believe, that the first ever self-realisation of existence of a relationship is - The First Crush.
The unexplained infatuation, the attraction…. towards someone.

Although, as soon as we are born into this world, we by default, establish many relationships –theoretically. Such as that of the son, the daughter, the mother, the father, the brother, the sister… so on & so forth.
But these relationships are there, we believe, because they are made to be.
(In a way, we can say, we are supposed to take them, consider them as granted.)

But, the very first awareness about really getting connected with someone, somehow; is the first real realisation of giving dimension to the phenomena.
This is that phase of our upbringing during which, un-warned, we get ourselves attracted, pulled towards a particular personality.

Just mere a smile or a glance, few words or deeds, intelligent smart outlook & appearance, the talent, the skill, the behaviour………..it can be anything. But the truth is, it's exciting & imbalances the physiological balance within us.

This may be the time, we start understanding,
“what does skipping a heart beat means ?”.

This may be the time that we feel a strong urge of being with that person most of the time, keep thinking about him/her or just keep looking, staring at them.

In any case, we realize that, we are into the process of establishing “a Relationship”.

This facet of relationship, radiates the glow of innocence & sweetness of kind.
It’s a relationship one feels he or she is into, but without being actually bothered or limited by any real time commitment, promises & vows.
It just exists.
It just blossoms.
It just shines.
It makes the heart happy.
It doesn’t seek any endorsement.
It’s just felt.
It’s the only type of relationship in which one feels so much related to the other person, without actually being related at all.

I feel, this experience of life, is the foundation of every other relationships we build during our journey of life.
This is true, as it helps one understand the “why” of a relationship.
It makes us aware about the changes we go through, the different moods we emote, the peculiar kind of acts and the responses we react with.

One interesting thing about this part of a relationship is , that it’s not only the first ever self realisation of a relationship, but it keeps up with the age & gets cornered, stored in the heart and keeps surfacing with the same fresh intensity & urge, at times, irrespective of a person’s biological clock.
Implies, that this facet of relationship never gets old enough to be just stored as “memory”. It remains ever fresh & ever vulnerable.

However strongly we live on or manage our important relationships in life, this face of the relationship remains as innocent & as sweet as ever.
It keeps popping up every now and then, irrespective of however strongly willed a person may be….

Hope this brings smiles to your lips and helps you to remember those lovely first time crushes………!!

Love....???????

“Love……..?????”

Why do people fail to show love?
Why do people fail to see dove?
Why do people crib for love?
What do people get so much from love?
Is this love so much important?
Why do we hear so much about love?
Hey,
if everybody talks so much of love, why do they forget to show their love?
People like you & me reside here; you are you and I am I,
Why you can’t be me and I can’t be you?
I like you the way you are, why can’t I like me too?
It’s easy to laugh at times, and not easy to laugh, a little bit;
It’s easy to cry at times, and not east to cry, a little bit;
Why it becomes so easy to write at times,
and not easy to write, a single bit……….?????

Happy Mothers' Day.....

That’s Mom…..!!!!
When I came home in the rain,
Brother asked : why didn’t you take an umbrella ???
Sister scolded : why couldn’t you wait till rain stopped ?
Father said angrily : only after catching a cold, you will realize.
But Mother, while drying my hair, said : stupid rain; couldn’t it wait, till my child came home ???
That is MOM !!!
With this, I salute my MOM , my kids MOM & all other Moms’ in the world for their incessant flow of selfless love & care showered on their children, which makes this world a much better place to breathe in ……
Happy Mother’s day !!!!!!!!!

Relationships.......

6.5.2010
Relationships…….
Few days back , somewhere in mid-April, I had posted a couple of lines on FB on “Relationships”…
Relationships !!...... They are the most simplest to live on with, but are the most complicated to manage with.
Just a few vague thoughts , emerged , converted into words & posted…..but with clear intention of expanding my views on the subject, my way in the days to come…..And here I am, sincerely trying to unfold “relationships” – its extremities ; the most simplest & the most complex character of the word in all its means.
The experience is such a happening, which has a very different and unique receptivity proportion by different people. Say, if I share my specific experiences , they need not necessarily be approved, accepted, understood or followed by others. But with as many point of views as possible & with as many angles, a particular experience, if be covered, may have people looking up with more receptivity.
I always had an interesting appetite, a hobby, an inclination to study & understand, the “action/reaction” pattern of various human beings under different conditions, circumstances; whom I usually come in contact with, may it be a casual acquaintance or some business or social association. This keen observation always helped me connect myself to that person in a way, which invariably got established as a unique comfort zone for both the subjects.
During the course of my journey through my life, I consider myself, quite fortunate to come in contact with different kind of people, having distinct & interesting personalities, associating with whom, have added so many important chapters in my life’s pages, as most memorable of the experiences.
The important thing is, how did we all relate to each other ? How could I relate myself , to them; with them; at different stages of my life & vice versa. Every relationships have a beautiful beginning & a very eventful journey. (“eventful implies – both good & bad experiences”). Its important to understand and learn, how relationships survive under adverse situations and unfavorable circumstances. Few survive. Few perish. But in any case, all of them do learn & have their own unique experience. They get wiser.
In the next few weeks, I would like to put in my understandings & evaluated knowledge about different relationships we establish, how we begin & move on with them. I would also like to draw out the different frequencies of emotions we go through in the process of living out that relationship.
It may surely bring smiles to many a lips & frown on many a faces; but shall appreciate, if they r being taken, considered as generalized as possible. There is no intention of directing the facts, but just a plain innocent release from the clutches of the mind & the heart. It surely feels good when we release few of our emotions with a complete freedom without being dominatised & threatened by our heart & mind……
