I realise it now...

There u sit in office and the lunch time draws near. You see everyone in office getting together and opening up their lunch boxes. Out comes, not only daal, sabzi and roti, but also love and care. You notice the amount of love, the mothers and wives have poured into those boxes. And there u r sitting, waiting for the peon, to get you something to eat.

Its evening and you leave office. You see everyone so happy and joyful, going back to their loved ones at home. They ring their bell and their come their kids, joyfully and happily greeting them. The hug, the kisses, the love. It makes all life worth living. And there you are riding back home in the auto, knowing very well the only thing waiting at home would be ur TV, ur Laptop and ur Mobile...

Night falls, and dinner time comes by. You know everywhere, there would be the garam roti greeting most people. And here you are, walking off to the local market to buy some roti and sabzi to fill ur hungry stomach.

Guys, its not that I dont have loved ones. I perhaps have the most loving mother and the most loving girlfriend in the world. But its at these moments, that you realise the value of human warmth and touch. When people used to talk abt a warm hug, one never realises it. I do it now.

When things go tough, for example in office. Targets are missed, pressure is immense, all you want is someone to come up to, hold ur hand and say.. Its gonna be ok.. When you come back home, tired and broken, all you want is someone to take you in their arms and say.. Its gonna be ok...

The human touch has that power and I realise it now. When I do get a chance to meet her, maybe once a month or so. I always tell her.. I hold ur hand and I forget all my tensions.. Its not a mushy dialogue from any movie.. It happens and I realise it now...

So all you guys, who are lucky enough to stay with their mom, dad, wife, kids or whoever. Dont forget to go give them a hug today. Dont feel embarrased to go give them a kiss and tell them how much you love them. Dont mind in holding their hands and letting them know you are there for them.

For its this touch that I miss. For its those hugs that I miss. For its that warmth that I miss. And I realise it now...

The Dilemma

Life always brings you on crossroads... it always gets you to choose between two things that you dont want to.... One is such thing always eats me up....

On one side i have always looked forward to a life of peace, shanti and relaxation. I have always looked forward to evenings amongst nature admiring the sunset in the distance. A place where you breathe air rather than petrol fumes. Where you walk down grasslands with the wind for your company rather than cars as traffic. But heres where the problem is...

Getting to work here may not ensure you the highest paying of jobs and thats what the world expects from you...

A Mercedes benz, a huge house, foreign holidays, 32" LCD screens, 20K mobile phones, an Apple notebook, Armani suits and more... Not only the world, even your parents, your wife, your kids, all expect the same. These are the metrics of success in today world. Its how much wealth one has acquired and not how much peace he has.

Guys, its not that i dont dream of these things. I do, and thats what is causing the whole issue. Whats more important?? What do u think???

There is always a bigger plan....

A few days back i read a status msg of a frnd " Really? Is there a bigger plan?" At that moment i actually agreed with the friends msg. I was depressed as every unemployed friend of mine. But then i went about thinking about the various incidents in my life and i reached the conclusion, THERE IS INDEED A BIGGER PLAN....

It all began 9yrs ago when i got into trouble with my principal, Sister Helena. I got into trouble for calling her "Budiya" (Old lady). Even though always out of trouble and always amongst the good books, i almost got thrown out that day. I was like, "Why me, when everyone calls her by that name." But time passed and i realised there was a bigger plan. That incident stopped my down slide. I realised i was going wrong. My friends were wrong. My future was wrong. Even if it was out of fear, i did mend my ways, i did start studing, i did get the marks and i did get the best thereon...

The next big plan hit me 5 yrs ago. With all my friends sitting in Pune, i was the only one on the verge of getting admission outside (read Mumbai) Though with the highest marks, i was the only one without an admission. I had got through the best college in Mumbai but i had wanted Pune which kept avoiding me. There i sat on Marine Drive thinking what was behind all this. Was there a signal i was getting. Was it God trying to tell me something. I decided no matter what i will stay in Mumbai only. I will make it big here itself. I will prove that whatever happens, happens for the good. The next day the call from Pune came up but i turned it down. My friends were mad at me. "You have always wanted this and now when you are getting it, you are saying no." 3 yrs down the line i had done well. I had learnt and experienced and achieved much more than i could have ever in Pune. The environment, the atmosphere there wouldnt have helped me do any better. I did realise there was a bigger plan.

At the end of my Mumbai tenure, i sat for the CAT. With my list of top colleges ready, i was all set to scale the heights. I got the marks but failed to receive any calls. One call and that was IMT Nagpur. A new institute, not on my list. What was my decision gonna be. Can i take the risk. Or should i sit for another attempt next year. The dilemma continued but i decided to take the plunge. There was a bigger plan awaiting for me at Nagpur- France. Any other place i am sure i would have never made the cut for the International Exchange Programme. But here i did and that trip changed my life forever. The confidence that u see today, the attitude that you see today, the Sampar that you see today is all thanx to France.

Then came the time for placements. November 09 to April 10. Day in and day out the search continued. Being choosy also wasnt helping. Companies came to campus but nothing interested me. Classes got over, MBA got over, convocation got over.. but still no sign for a job. Frustration levels rose, depression sunk in, irritation crept in. Times were bad, even tears started rolling down. "Why is this happening. 23years of toiling and yet no job in hand. Whats the use of an MBA when there is no job." It all changed 3 days back. One phone call. It was A.B. My classmate at IMT. He is starting a business and wanted me to handle the marketing for him. And from tomorrow i join him.

So guys as of now i dont know if the business will succeed or not but thats not the point being discussed now. But not getting a job and finally landing up in a business. Is it a part of a bigger plan? Surely God has something else in store for me. Thats why he is making me a part of a start up rather than any other established business. Time and again things have happened, events have occurred and incidents have taken place to prove that everything has been decided by the one above. He will never let you go. He walks with you, hand in hand, waiting for the right moment to let you on alone. But even once he leaves your hand he is there to save you if you slip. So when things go rough and every thing seems grim, just leave it to him. And dont be afraid of going by your intuition. Just take the plunge and see things blossom.

Why are guys the way they are ???

Hey everyone,
Girls always ask why are guys so, why are they so immature and childish. Why is it that in reality they are so practical and stuff and when it comes to maintaining a relationship and a girlfriend do they become so impractical and childish...

The answer lies in one scene of the movie HUM TUM. There you see Abhishek Bachchan explaining this very same funda to Saif Ali Khan. He tells him that even though physically girls may not be as strong as men but emotionally (pointing to his heart) they are much stronger than us. He continues by saying that men may look very strong from outside but inside all of them is a kid who fears to grow up.

Ya guys and gals its true, we know the moment when we grow up we are expected to take responsibility and expected to be strong to face the hardships for life but internally we want to continue living that tension free life, where we are ones cared for.

Thats why when we come across someone who loves us, this childish side of us jumps to the situation of showing itself. Thats why, girls, at times you find your boyfriends childish, immature and impractical. They care for you all the time, at times they want to be cared for. They pamper you all the time, at times they want to be pampered.

And at these moments, the girlfriends lose their cool. "You werent so earlier, whats happened to you now." "I dont expect my boyfriend to be such a kiddo" Its just that guys get tired of putting that macho mask on themselves and they feel they can reveal their true selves to you. So next time you face something like this, remember my post, and just that stroke of your hand on their head or that sweet word or two would make their day. Its nothing more that we demand...

Munnabhai MBBS: Lessons for life

Ever since i have seen this movie a few years back, a lot of concepts and fundas used have greatly influenced me. Everytime people talk to me about something related i dont mind using these instances. So here are my lessons from one of my favourite movies.

Thank you to the Sweeper
The scene begins with an elderly sweeper mopping the floor. The floor is all wet and Sanjay Dutt accidently walks over leaving stains. The sweeper in an irritated mood cribs that now he will have to clean the whole thing all over again. Sanjay Dutt stops and hugs him. On seeing the confused look on the guys face, Dutt explains to him that if he wasnt there the hospital would have never been clean enough to cure the patients. Its him who cleans every thing without a word from vomit to shit. Dutt says Thank you and moves on much to the delight of the sweeper

Later in the movie when Munna is being thrown out of college this sweeper stops the way of the dean. The dean in his anger shouts," who are you?" The sweeper replies." I have been working here for 20 years and you dont even know my name. Look at Munna, he ackowledged my contribution and said Thank you."

Lesson 1
No work is to be considered bad or demeaning. Every job has its benefits without which the equilibrium will be disturbed. There is this concept of dignity of labour. Respect each ones job

Lesson 2
There is no loss in saying Thank You to someone whom you feel deserves it. It doesnt cost you anything and it barely takes a second but these 2 words may mean the world to someone.

The song in the hospital
Jimmy Shergill has been detected with cancer and he is soon gonna succumb to it. He is depressed and upset that having not lived life fully, how will he fulfil all his dreams and aspirations. That night Munna sends dancers who change the environment of the hospital and in the song they sing are the lessons to be learnt

Lesson 3
There is one solution to all pain. What is past is past. Whats left live to the fullest.
Always remember life is only a 4 day journey which should not be wasted. Enjoy each moment as if your last. Go through each day as if its the end. Because on your deathbed you dont regret what you do, you regret what you didn't do.


Sunil Dutt and the pickpocket
Sunil Dutt has just arrived at Mumbai station when he gets pickpocketed. Somehow the crowd gets hold of the pickpocket and start thrashing him. Sunil Dutt stops them and says since he was the victim , he will decide the punishment. He turns to the pickpocket and says, " you see the eyes of these people. see the frustration, see the anger. Someone has had a fight with their wife, someone is angry at their kids for not studying well, some are angry at the Indian cricket team for not playing well, somebody is upset at the government because the roads are not good enough, someone is angry at their boss. See the accumulated frustration which these guys are looking for a vent for. If i hand you over to them imagine how much you would be beaten up"

Lesson 4
Todays world is indeed full of stress and frustration. Agreed the times are so but even in this competititve environment we need to keep ourselves cool. And accumulating of stress in harmful in the long run so beware. And dont you take out that anger/ frustration/ tension on someone who doesnt deserve it

Jaadu ki Jhappi
One of the greatest concepts of this movie was the Jaadu ki Jhappi (the magic hug). The solution to every problem. It indeed works. No matter how tensed you are, no matter how bad the situation is, no matter what the sorrow....a hug always makes you feel better. Be it your mom, your friend, your girlfriend or even a complete stranger... it works..

Lesson 5
Go out and spread the magic....The magic of Jaadu ki Jhappi

Reason, Season or a Lifetime.....

Guys,
This was a mail i received today but it matched my thinking cent by cent so i thought y not share it with u guys....
Waise if u read few of my earlier blogs on LIFE you may notice the things that i am talking about...
So for you, not written by me, but believed by me...

Reason, Season or a Lifetime

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person..
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support,
To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
This person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on..



Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,
Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson,
Love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.



Thank you for being a part of my life,
Whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Reason

Sometimes people come into your life & you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or help you figure out who you are & or who you want to become You never know who these people may be (possibly your roommate, neighbor, professor, long lost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger), but when you lock eyes with them, you know at the very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.

and sometime things will happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, & unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming these obstacles that you would have never realized your true potential, strength, will power, or heartEverything happens for a reason.

Nothing happens by chance or by mean of good luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness & sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without this small test, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe & comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.

The people that you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you will become Even the bad experiences are learned from. In fact, they are the most poignant ones.If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love & how to open your heart & eyes to things.

Make everyday count. Appreciate every moment & take from those moments everything you could possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before & actually listen... Let yourself fall in love again, break free, and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right too.Tell yourself that you are a great individual & believe in yourself. For if you don't believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you. You can make your life anything you wish.....Create your own life & then go out & live it with absolutely NO REGRETS. Most importantly, if you love someone tell him or her, for you NEVER know what tomorrow may have in store. And learn a lesson in life each day you live.Today is the tomorrow you were worried about yesterday.... Was it worth it?

Whats life become?

Today we have higher buildings and wider highways, but shorter temperments and narrower points of view.

We spend more, but enjoy less.

We have bigger houses, but smaller families.

We have more compromises, but less time.

We have more knowledge, but less judgement.

We have more medicines, but less health.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

We talk much, we love only a little, and we hate too much.

We reached the moon and came back, but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors.

We have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space.

We have higher income, but less morals…

These are times with more liberty, but less joy… With much more food, but less nutrition…These are days in which two salaries come home, but divorces increase. These are times of finer houses, but more broken homes.

That’s why I propose that as of today -- You do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion. Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to the needs. Pass more time with your family, eat your favorite food, visit the place you love.

Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment; it isn’t only survival.Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume… use it every time you feel you want it.

Take out from your vocabulary phrases like, “one of these days” and “someday”. Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days…”Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them. Never pass up a chance at adding laughter and joy to your life. Every day, hour, and minute are special… Because you never know if it will be your last…

If you’re too busy to take some minutes to share this message with someone you love, and you tell yourself that you will share it “one of these days”… “one of these days” can be very far away, and you may not be there to see it…

Time value of life

Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day.Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course?Each of us has such a bank. It's name is TIME.
Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to a good purpose.It carries over no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day.If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against "tomorrow."You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success!The clock is running!! Make the most of today.
To realise the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade.
To realise the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby.
To realise the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realise the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realise the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who just missed a train.
To realise the value of ONE SECOND, ask someone who just avoided an accident.
To realise the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal at the Olympics.
Treasure every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with. And remember time waits for no one.
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift.
That's why its called the present.

Live Life don't crib abt it

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.

Jo hota hai, achche ke liye hota hai (Whatever happens, happens for the good)

There are times when things go wrong, when your confidence hits rock bottom and when life seems a disaster but at this point understanding that there is a hidden meaning behind the event is what is important. In this blog post of mine i will give you some examples from my life which at first seemed disasterous but today i just love them.

The very first thing which i ever felt wrong was staying away from Dad. I felt hurt and pained by it quite many times but 18 yrs down the line i am happy that it is the way it is. If it did not happen, i wouldnt have been responsible the way i am, i wouldnt have understood life the way i do, i wouldnt have taken life seriously like i have. Staying in the sheltered environment i would have never gone to Jamshedpur, then not studied well enough, never reached Mumbai, Nagpur or France alike.

When i was in the 9th gradei got into trouble with my principal for making fun of her and was almost thrown out. That time i cried, why me, when everyone did so. But a few years later i realised that if it wasnt for that incident i would have never started taking studies seriously. My friend circle was going wrong, i was having fun in class and ignoring studies but since that day i mended my ways. Today 8 yrs later i still am in search of my principal, to thank her, but few years back she left for her home country, Ireland. Sister Helena, Sister i just hope that some day i get a chance to express the gratitude that i have inside for you. Thank you.

After 12th i got admission in Mumbai for my graduation while all my friends got through colleges in Pune. I cried, i cribbed and complained that i wanted to leave Mumbai. I kept waiting for lists to show my name in Symbiosis, Pune and it kept ignoring me. Then one day while sitting on Marine Drive i thought, my name should have been on the 1st list but it was not. It was not there till the 3rd. Thats when i thought, that is this a sign from God that dont go to Pune, that i had to make it big here itself in Mumbai. I decided i will not go. Next day, my name appeared in the list. My phone did not stop ringing, as all my friends tried desperately to change my decision but i did not. 4 yrs down the line i am satisfied with my decision. Agreed i did not have as much fun as they did, did not live a great college life but learnt a lot about life. The struggle, the competition, the life ahead, i got a preview of all. That made me work harder and thats why CAT clicked. I got a 94.86 percentile and fate led me to IMT Nagpur.

Now you will say IMT, thats not good enough. I agree its not an IIM, its not even close to IMT Ghaziabad but my decision proved right again. IMT in the 1st two terms taught me more than the 3 yrs in Mumbai. While in Mumbai i learnt about life as a struggle, IMT taught me about People. They people that i met here was very diverse and wide but what it taught me was everyone is different. Its upto you to see through the fake fronts that people potray or else life will become a disaster. And most important of all IMT gave me the gift of my Best Days of My Life, France. IMT Nagpur wasnt on my original list of colleges, I compromised and the result was France.

So bhaiyon aur unke behanon, Life is great, beautiful and fantastic. Whatever happens, happens to make life better, happier and greater. So embrace everything with open arms.

Today i am happy because EVERYONE CELEBRATES OCCASIONS, I CELEBRATE LIFE !!
So IT'S YOUR LIFE, MAKE IT LARGE.

Spirituality or Religion

Yesterday the 6 of us were back into the discussion mode and this time i got cornered due to wrongly formed questions and statements. The topic was SPIRITUALITY OR RELIGION??

We say that the world, the galaxy and the universe was made by the same person. By default lets assume it to be GOD. That means the one who made the Hindus, the Muslims, the Christians were all made by this GOD. Then why do we keep fighting for more power and territory over the other religions.

These people who keep fighting they talk as if the Hindu dominated regions were made by Ram, the middle east by Allah and the west by Jesus. You tell me does it make sense. When the whole world is made by one and when basically all the religions say the same thing then why, a capital WHY, are we fighting?

Why i support spirituality is that today religion has become a means of polictical gain and personal interest. Even the guys who are creating the problem know that one and all are the same but personal benefit in sight, so go ahead fight. Stop this shit, humans. Why are you fighting against the very same person whom your very own Ram, Allah or Jesus created.

I personally believe there is this Superior Power who guides us. I wont give him a name because then religious fanatics would take offence that this Superior Power is Hindu, Muslim, Christian or any other religion.

I dont say religion is wrong but the way it is being used and manipulated is wrong. Please realise the mistake and stop before the destruction of the world becomes inevitable.

Is Money everything??

what is it that has made man so materialistic in life? why is it that all that counts as of today is personal benefit and money? why is everything from love to learning being calculated in monetary terms?

Be it politicians. They promise the world to u but then keep the world for themselves. In businesses the shareholders and customers are supposed to be the king but them something like Satyam, a Mr Raju comes along and takes all away. Why? Why do humans forget that 50 yrs down the line when u are on ur deathbed all this money, all the cars and the land u have bought and all the buildings u have built wont be able to save u. and when u do die then all this is gonna be left behind. u are not gonna take it along to your next life. if life was cumulative in nature i would surely have finished my studies all in one life, earned millions in another and the rest would have enjoyed luxuriously but friends life is not that way.

then y do people need so much that it becomes a headache. less money causes a pain and even more more money causes one since then u r worried, "what if i lose it". so just keep that much how much u need to live a good life and earn as much as necessary.

people go to any extent to earn money, they dont care if they method they adopt is right or wrong. at this point let me share with u a story my mom once told me.
" a man was earning enough money to survive and one day he got an offer to earn triple that amount but the work to be done wasnt morally right. he goes to his mother and explains the situation to her. she says, " son i am illiterate and dont understand these things of this world. all i know is that every morning when i come to wake u up u r fast asleep and it takes me ages to wake u up. dont do anything that someday i come to ur room and u r awake due to worry n tension. thats all i will say"

This simple story has such a huge meaning in it. There is life beyond materialism and monetarism. Thats a life of love, learning and enjoyment. Go out recognise the life beyond, use it to the fullest, enjoy every moment and just chill.

Love in France

I had written this article last evening on my way home but I wasn’t able to post it due to no access to net.

It’s 7.50 pm, I am on my way home but as I cross Place Wilson I decide to sit on one of the benches there. I take a seat under a pink cherry blossom tree. There in the distance behind the building the sun is getting ready to pack up for the day. On my left, leaving a few benches, sits a couple discussing something from a sheet of paper. On my right, sit another couple, too engrossed in their kissing to even notice that I am putting them on my sheet of paper. Across the fountain an elder couple walks home, hand in hand. Seems like the whole city of Dijon is in love. As I write this 2 pigeons appear out of nowhere and land in front of me. Don’t tell me these 2 are also in love....

The weather around, the calm chilly breeze, the setting sun, the trees with their new, bright green leaves, the cherry blossom trees all seem to blend with the environment as everything seems to be giving vibes of love.

In the next 15 minutes that I sit there, loads of love filled couple cross my existence. Some just hold hands and walk along. This guy keeps troubling his girl who just seems to love it. Some just cycle away into time.

Man y am I the only one not in love? I also wanna love somebody and spend time with someone? And then out of nowhere it dawn cracks, lightning strikes and my eyes open to a completely different world. I too was in love. YES guys I am in love too. Love all around me had finally gripped me.

Now the next valid question would be. In love with whom?

Thats simple. Love with the beauty of life, with this love filled country, love with beauty of nature, with the setting sun, with the miracle of life, with every creation that God so beautifully designed, with the breeze that races thru my hair, with everyone else who is also in Love.

Finally I found love too......

People say “ Live n let live”.

I say, “ LOVE n Let LOVE”

Problems

There come phases in life when everything just seems to go wrong. or it might just be that day where from the word GO all seems to go wrong. At this time, we see people cribbing about "y me?" "everyone is so happy. but y am i facing all this crap."

So my fellow dear humans at such points y do we forget that its not u only who is facing problems. Everyone, and i mean each n everyone, is tensed and worried about something in life. Someone's job is not good enough, someone is having personal problems with his spouse, someone's kids arent doing well at school, someone is angry at his favourite cricket/soccer team for losing every match of the season, someone is angry at the government, someone at the neighbour, someone at his boss. So u see guys, life is all about overcoming n facing these problems.

The main challenge for us is to see the beauty of life through these minor challenges. When was the last time u bought a balloon, when was the last time u climbed a tree, when was the last time u gave someone a rose. So guys get off that chair, go out, say hello to people, help that guy in need, notice the leaves on the tree and share their liveliness. Give ur mom a hug n a rose and say "I LOVE U". Thank ur dad for all that he has done.

Be happy, enjoy and keep smiling, always n forever...................................

Does God exist???

There are loads of questions i have thought over the last 22 yrs that dont seem to have an answer....

How did this earth come into existence.... u would give me a scientific explanation that gases and integration blah, blah, blah but now tell me how did these gases n all come into existence.

Y is the sky blue and not any other colour ? how do trees come into existence and y do they grow the way they do? y dont they grow upside down or in mid air? how did gravity come into existence?

Y r humans with 2 hands and 2 legs n not more? who made the design for the human body? who decided that we would have 206 bones and not more or less? who decided that mammals will be born alive and not thru eggs? y is an egg oval n not cube or cuboid?

now coming to trees and plants? how to they grow leaves and how to they make food thru photosynthesis? y do they shed leaves in winter?

y is water wet and y does it flow? who decided the colours things are gonna be? y are plants green and y is blood red?

All these questions may have scientific explanations but for those scientific explanations also there may be another question cropping up regarding its existence.

Can the answer be GOD? But then another question.....How did God come into existence?

Learning

Everything is a learning experience. Nothing happens without a reason. So its up to u to see the positive side of the thing, learn from it and let it pass.
Even if it is like taking a new route to office or cooking something different it teaches u something new. People during times of trouble feel y is this happening with me, what they dont see is that they have learnt one more way of not doing the thing.

Guys learn to see everything from a positive perspective. If u break up with your girlfriend that also teaches u loads of things like dont be possessive or dont be emotionally dependent on someone.
Ur learning depends on ur way of looking at the event. The more positive ur outlook the more u learn.

Learning is the main aim of the soul. That is y it takes birth. To learn so that it moves onto the next plane. According to research there are 7 such phases before the soul finally obtains Nirvana. Everytime u take birth it is with a blueprint ready to learn. Once the soul has fulfilled the objective of each birth it passes for heavenly abode, to prepare and take birth again to continue its learning. I know this has got too spiritual but thats the truth....lol.
