* "Humne to tumhe ladki samjha hi nahin !!!" What is it with the world, I do not understand. Looks like people are expecting typical prototypes as girls. Girls walk like this, they stand like this, they talk like this, they sound like this...Man !!! Girls are a huge set, they form the latter half of the society, take a break guys...no prototypes !!! Give them a chance to be as unique as they are !!!
* My little sis, has come to Hyd, for a few days...!!! She's been trying her mighty best to find a groom for me. And the only logical reason seems to be the fact that, chronologically, she landed on earth after me, n that shall be the order in which we get married. Now, now, now ... the most important part...she's FIVE years younger to me..!!! Where's the hurry ?? Neways..One brillaint advise from her " Don't marry any of those US mapplai's .... Avade kandavare okke umma vakkyum" !!! For those who do not understand this statement, go to an interpretter, its worth it :) I tried my best to convince her otherwise, but, she seems to be pretty sure of her opinion !! :)
* These lines have made me think quite deep over the last few days...
Madiralaya janeko ghar se nikalata hai pinewala,
Kis path per jau asamanjas main hai wo bholabala,
Alag alag path batalate sab, Per main yeh batalata hun,
Rah pakad kar too chala chal, Paa jayega Madhushala.
Shaayad ek path pakadne ka waqth aakhir aa hi gaya :)

< n yet for some>
On behalf of one of my best friends....
We held hands,we set out on a journry
we dreamt together, we has a vision
we took each other for granted
we loved each others presence
we never thought of life without the other
One fine day...
she left my hand, she betrayed me
she left me all alone in a durge
for a fault that could be termed a subterfuge...
I tried to persuade her..
I called her out, i cried to her;
she felt my pain, I knew she was mine,
n somewhere deep within she missed her man
The pain was terrible, the wound too deep,
i gave her all that was mine
but 'alas', finally my heart yelled,
"after all I beat as fast as hers'"
gimme a hearing, my dear man..
"my counterpart in her is as hard as a stone"
At last I lent my heart an ear,
I decided that she was not worth being my dear,
I broke off, without a last word,
I decided to forgive and forget....
Now, life seems difficult, life seems tough,
seconds seems minutes and minutes seem hours...
Oh lord!! Show me a way...
I am your son, you beloved son,
Hold me close and make me a man,
Tough and strong to caretake your world,
As well and better as you ever thought,
This rebirth of mine would ever have brought.

Pehla Thokar !!!
Nothing special for the world...Just a casual day....
- A lonely uneventful drive to office (despite leaving home early , it took me 50 full minutes !!! )
- A casual well spent afternoon
- A few compromises with self ... :( , Sometimes heart does take over the mind.
- A mind full of thoughts, ideas and questions.
- A tired self, simply waiting to vent out all the left over energy into the world.
- A nice evening drive back home...
- A 'chota sa thokar' with an Auto, (neither of us or our vehicles were harmed). It was more of- yes...We did collide(okay that word is an exaggeration !!!) but hey we are okay!!! :)
Take homes ::
- I hate men on road who say "abbe yaar yeh ladkiyan drive kyon karti hain...Its not their cup of tea !!! "
- If the vehicle stops mid way, I'd tell ppl behind - "Chill bade miyan!!! Ruk gayi to ruk gayi...Any sensible creature would as much wanna move as you do, STOP honking !!! "
- Sometimes, drives of emotions make u utter and do many things in life. Before you speak or do anything important in life, THINK a million times. Sometimes impromptu decisions don't work. And once you have thought it out and kept your foot forward, never ever repent your decision. Remember the reasons you gave yourself when you took the decision, believe in them.
- Never leave the keys to your happiness, or to your integrity in someone else's hands. Nobody would take care of them as well as you do !!! Nobody !!
- All females, please drive carefully on the road, and ensure that you prove all those men who look at women driving n exclaim "Naah!! She can't be as gud as me !!! "- wrong :)
Somehow, this day, does get earmarked in my autobiography (hopefully someday I'll author one) !!!

Generation gap <>
It took me quite a lot of time to figure out a reason for generation gap, especially in the Indian context, but I believe, I have found one strong reason.
Guess who the culprit is :: Anyones guess...The new thought process. And who instilled it ? Books !!!
Most of you who studied the CBSE syllabus as kids would remember the first page of the science textbook. That page (after or before) Gandhiji's talisman!!! Yesss...That one page is the culprit !!!
It spoke of rational thinking, questioning the facts, questioning the age old beliefs, applying ones own sense of reason to every decision before implementing it !!!
On the contrary, many in the earlier generation believe in giving instructions. Mere set of commands. They expect the young ones to agree, to abide, and ask no questions. But, how on earth do they expect the same child to forget the instinct which has been so carefully ingrained in him by the very best educational system. He would accept to all that you say, provided you give him a reason. The youngster - his heart and mind, now demand - facts, which are substantiated with convincing reasoning. Once the youngster has thought through the reasoning, his mind goes through its fair share of interpretations.
At this point in time, after giving the young man his due hearing, the older generation can scream "generation gap"...But until then...I'd merely call the whole idea hypocracy !!! Books should preach that which the generation follows :) !!! Ain't I right ??
