A phone call!

It’s 27th July!

So anything special in this?

Nothing as such, but suddenly one of my friends made me realized it’s 27th July ;)

Early in the morning he just called me up and asked me like ‘What are you doing now-a-days?’ And, the most important question: it’s been long. Almost one year since we talked about this…so what have you done so far?

I just avoided the topic...I was not able to recall what he was talking about...ahem! ahem! here my presence of mind worked and you know I talked to him for approximately fifteen minutes. 

But

the question still remains in my mind!

What I have done so far? Especially between 27th July 2010 and 27th July 2011.

Well, what should I say?

Things just happened neither by chance nor by choice. Some were just wow while some were awful!

Anyways, that’s a part of life but you know what matters for me the most after evaluating the whole previous year…I had a new experience! :)

Yes! It was entirely new for me and I enjoyed every bit of it. Thanks to dear life!

Well, now I should arrange the things for which I am always interested to do…

like improvement in my current job profile. Honestly speaking I am grateful for my work. It’s very part of my identity and I love most of it. Still there is something which is incomplete...lots of things I have to do...hmm lots of things...

And undoubtedly, there are some other things… I do some...but for some I still crave for like travelling new and different places, driving brand new cars, cooking perfectly, watching lots of movies, reading a lot, playing some music instrument, painting and last but not least yoga plus meditation.

You won't believe that the last word of my last sentence has touched my heart. Thanks to Art of Living! Some days back I joined it. And, I am loving it!

Now, let's see when will I say like Shilpa Shetty 'the secret of my beautiful figure is Yoga'  ;)

Enough is Enough!

Literally it was my fifth round. As usual I was hopeful this time my work would be done definitely. But once again I was proved wrong. Again adverse situation was in front of me. And, that was a very right time to burst out on the person. But you know what I did. I just took a firm decision that I won’t come here again. And it took hardly 2 seconds to decide this. Of course I dedicated three words ‘Go to hell’ to the person but unfortunately that didn’t come out of my mouth at the moment :)

No irritation. No frustration and no regrets even. But on the way I was thinking why I took decision in a hurry (‘hurry’ c’mon Shveta! Enough is enough! It’s your 5th trip to this place. After all there should be a limit to patiently waiting for something)

Anyways! I had to do my work at any cost. So I did it, but, in a new and different manner. I was very happy to do this because for so long I was procrastinating to do this new thing.

Lesson: Whenever you meet adverse situations, don’t lose heart. You are going to learn something new. Yeahhhhhhhhhhh!

apne hi to hai sapne...

Band ho ya khuli...
aakhon ko aadat si ho gayi hai...sapne dekhne ki

nadaan hai, nahi janti
mjaak bnate hai sabhi uske chote-chote sapno ka
hamesha paldha bhari hi rahta hai sabki badi-badi bato ka

waise to
kasur nahi unka bhi
kyonki sapne hamare hai, unke nahi
kaise paehchaan payenge wo inke rango ki sachchai ko
jab tak mehsus nahi karenge, khud apne sapno ki gaehrai ko

dekho na
aaj apna hi to hai
kal tak tha jo ek asambhav sapna
fir kyo na mein dekhu pura hote hue
apna ek aur adhur sapna :)

Sweet Sister!

Dear friends, let me tell you one thing today. This blog is not all about I, me, and myself always! At times I write on behalf of others like some colleague, friend, character of a book/script, or sometime a co-traveler. But you must have observed that I always use ‘I’ ‘My’ ‘Me’ words just because to feel the character in me. So, you, please also read it as it is and feel the character in you. Believe me it’d be more interesting!

Okkk for this particular post, I tell you this is on behalf of my room partner. She is a great fan of her sister and now I am expressing her feelings ;)

My sweet sister!
Yes! she is very sweet
we are almost like twins
same eyes, same smile
but she is actually four years older than me :)


She behaves
as if she is my mentor
yes, she is...but first of all
we are very good friends
She is my teacher...
She is my leader
But hang on...
that doesn’t mean we never quarrel
Of course we do
But often forget at the same moment
At times it lingers on…but who cares?
that’s a fun also :)


We always enjoy together
While reading or playing
Cooking or shopping
With lots of masti and gossipings :)


But we are living apart now
Because she is married
But thank God!
She’s never get away from me
Not in talks…walks…and small-small moments :)


I am still her darling
She takes care of me as usual
This time with lots of questions like
‘Have you had breakfast…lunch…dinner?
Okkk what did you have in dinner?
But why didn’t you have this…?
Come see me this weekend, I will make for you’
Oh! C’mon dids I am not a kid…:)


Of course I am a kid for her
In fact
I always enjoy whenever she takes care of me like this ;)
Sometimes I feel
I am blessed with two mothers
One is my mother
And the other is my mother’s eldest daughter
my sweet sis ;)


Love you dids
Love you very much!

na jane kyo...

एक दिन खुश, बहुत खुश

दूजे दिन उदास

ना जाने क्यों जिंदगी,

 पल-पल लगने लगी कुछ खास

ना किसी से बैर, ना किसी से प्यार

या फिर समझ लो

सभी तो है अपने,

फिर किसी से कैसी तकरार

सच कहे, हमे तो है

अपने सपनो से बहुत प्यार  

जो  मन  करता  है  वो  करते  जायेंगे

हो जाता है तो ठीक

नहीं तो फिर से दम लगाएंगे 

कहते है 

किस्मत का लिखा कौन मिटाए

पर एक बार तो

किस्मत को भी हमसे, 

खेलने में मज़ा तो आये  

एक दिन खुश

दूजे दिन उदास

ना जाने क्यों जिंदगी,

 पल-पल लगने लगी कुछ खास!!!

...because I feel good when I sing!

World Music Day! But I sing everyday...

I sing when I feel good…I sing when I feel bad
I sing when I pray to God…I sing when I do household works
I sing when I feel attracted to somebody...I sing when I tease somebody
I sing in the shower…I sing on the occasions
I sing just by the way yaar!

How Opal Mehta got…a new life?

Monday blues! Getting up early in the morning and coming back to work place, Delhi from home town. However it’s never tiring to come back to Delhi but of course the thought of getting up early in the morning and traveling especially on Monday is always a headache for me. Approximately four hours traveling! Uff! :-(

But this time I was not so tired just because on the way I had a good sleep and read an interesting book for some time. Well, after reaching ISBT Kashmiri Gate, my next step was to take a metro for office. Don’t know why I don’t feel good even with a thought of traveling by metro now-a-days. Actually I know why but tell you later may be some other day ;-) Feeling good or bad, hardly matters, finally I was in Metro. No new thing was there as such.  In other words it can be said that each and every person was new for me there in fact. Well within half-an-hour I reached CGO metro station and now I was on escalators. A good looking guy was also standing there although many people were there. But I noticed only that guy. I liked his facial expressions. I was moving on my way to office but the boy was walking slowly. I was literally looking at him by turning back again and again. And every time I turned back, I gave a smile to myself only you know why because he was damn busy in reading a book ‘How Opal Mehta Got Kissed Got Wild and Got a Life - Kaavya'.

The whole story of Opal Mehta was now on my mind once again. A story all about positive attitude and confidence! But it was good to remind it especially on Monday morning. Anyways after almost ten minutes while I was entering my office, my phone rang. I just picked up the call and  suddenly I noticed the same book named ‘How Opal Mehta…’ again in somebody’s hands who was standing right in front of me and you know what he was the same guy whom I saw in the metro station. Maybe he was waiting for somebody there. But now he was giving me an innocent smile and I was looking at him with a surprise while talking on phone with somebody.

It was strange! Stranger than Opal Mehta’s Story? Wasn’t it? No! it was not! At times it just happens! :-)

Now you’d be surprised what the big deal was in that. Actually I was enjoying seeing him because some days back I read the same book with the same excitement. Bus or Metro, wherever I found space to stand comfortably while traveling I just started reading that book. But he was one step ahead of me. He was reading while walking on the road even. That was amazing! I was wondering which page he is reading and why this particular expression was on his face etc. but yes people around us took me otherwise definitely. ;-) But who cared? I was in my own world at that time. I was feeling so proud because this was the first time when somebody was reading a book which I already read. Well, everybody has his/her own destination. So he moved on his way. And, I was on my way.
