Don't cry that its over, smile that it happened.

I know I know, first thing in mind after reading the title would be: Easier said than done.

I agree, have no second opinion to that. BUT, and this is a very big one - was it not a beautiful experience? This is a journey, on a train that is touring not the world but LIFE. Many incidences, many situations, many passengers, a few become close, a few choose to change the train and sometimes you too would like to take a different train, wouldn't you?

The journey continues, and we just keep changing trains. Some people are there with us for a longer time, some otherwise. But be happy that you tasted that experience with a particular person, so what if it was only from one destination to the other? It definately made you'll pick something good from each other. You came across such a wonderful person! Thank God that your journey was not devoid of this encounter and move on!

My encounter with Smiles...

"
A smile so unpretentious
A laughter so contiguous
Spreading happinez all around
A human so effervescent...
This creation of the almighty is still in its purest form.
"

Thats how one would feel when is in close proximity of this beautiful soul who has the most important quality one should possess in these times. The quality to smile and needs no reason to smile!

I often am reminded of the object oriented concepts, (sorry to sound technical here, can't help my professional side effects), but I can relate OOPS* to this person.
1. Encapsulation
2. Abstraction
3. Polymorphism
4. Ofcourse, Inheritance- the upbringing has to be the major factor.

Good things truly come in small packages and here all d world's goodies are encapsulated in one single form: a good heart, a good personality, an ever smiling face, good looks, healthy mind .... can I continue for the rest of this post?

Maybe, the person has abstracted from the world the sorrow, the struggle, the pain many of us can't suppress within us.

Aah! A friend, philosopher, child, sibling, worker, a true fighter in life, an achiever .... is so very capable of playing multiple roles simultaneously leaving none to complaint.

Having described OOPS with this person in mind it is needless to explicitly speak of where the inheritance of such beautiful qualities are from...

Truly God's wonderful creation, knows how to make the world around smile and spreads the message of happiness.

Knowing this magic in human form is knowing how to smile without a reason.

Hats off to you...
God Bless You Happiness.

Swings of life.

Hello All,
This indeed is a special time in my life. Having said that, I am not encouraging the thought/belief that each moment is not special. Ofcourse, it is. Each moment in life is special in some or the other way.
Coming back to what I meant ... very few lucky people in today's times get a chance to sit back, relax and know themselves better. I have got this chance and if not now then when can I know myself better? Yes, I admit that I haven't known myself since birth and it is still an ongoing process.
So what kind of person am I, if nothing else then definately a person who is often ruled by moods. Yes, its not a very good thing to realize though.
A human ruled by mind is considered weak, and the person who has control on his mind has got the game of life in her/his hands.
So, all you, out there instead of being a slave to your mind, rule it. High time you see. Weigh the importance of a particular moment and the mission holding most importance that time and work towards it instead of listening and abiding to the whimsicals of your ever so roamer romeo called MIND. Sooner or later, it then will learn to be focussed.

The puzzle called LOVE, contd...

People wanted me to continue on this, so I take the liberty of doing so.
Love indeed is a feeling to share, and not just expect something in return. A friend of mine said its true, but very difficult to follow. But my dear friend, every good thing is not achieved without struggle. We will have to bring this definition into practice. Not now, not today but every moment that we live herein.

I am not a preacher, its just an answer to the doubts raised by a few who appreciated this post. I still believe that an individual's perception towards things in life at that particular situation is correct for her/him.

But if we really have to measure the success of love then it has mostly been seen in the failure of its followers. Romeo-Juliet, Heer-Ranjha or Laila-Kais. Avoiding the risk of sounding too filmy, I come back to my point that love need not necessarily be towards or for a mortal.

Kids are the best example of selfless love. They love their Teddy bears, they love their plants and school. No this isn't materialistic love. Kids hardly know what materialism is, and hence I didn't point out to grown ups who too love their soft toys.

Aah! Did I say selfless-love. Indeed, thats what this four letter word can be well suited with: selfless- the best adjective.

When we start believing in selfless love for our God, our friends, relatives and everything in this world, will we find peace and happiness in loving. Then, will people change the statement to: LOVE is synonymous to PEACE.

The puzzle called LOVE

I know most of you must be thinking-great topic to have been picked up today.
Yes, true it is. Even the last person on this planet who dares not to accept the fact that this feeling is indeed was what he/she longed/still longs for is definately not ignorable.
Loving a living creature is generally what mortals find more interest in, the reason being an expectation for a reciprocation of the same feeling. And Lo! That defies the feeling completely. Expectation of the same in return...is why people get hurt in Love. Not understanding this, many here have generalized and made the statement that:
LOVE is synonymous to PAIN.
I would like to differ here. Love is not a give and take business. Its a feeling to be shared.

`Nothing to fear...` OR 'Drive by CARS`.

The musical side of me is known to many, but my choice of music has never been fixed. Its highly dependent on the emotion I am going through that time when had I listened to it. But a good song has a very less chance to have missed my liking, and if it has then am surely stressed or into something else.
Mostly soft numbers and motivational songs go well with me. Though there are few ROCK and CLASSICAL numbers too that are my favorites, but mostly soft ones.

Here I would wish to know what my friends reading this have a taste for?

Please pour in your comments and I would build my next blog on that....

"Choone hai taare isse.....chahiye saare isse"

Ever wondered what is beyond this planet, or what life is all about? No no I am not questioning our existence, thats out of scope of this blog, :-) . There is so much to learn and share in this world; and people now have gone beyond this one world itself!! I've seen satellite pictures of Mars and Moon.
Stunning!
But there are still people in our society who cannot think beyond a 9 to 5 job, opposite sex and enjoyment. No, I cannot blame them, it is their lifestyle...but a lifestyle that has come out of ignorance; And I believe Ignorance is not Bliss, it is dangerous, it is like a postponment,of an issue that we will surely have to face or learn of, one day.
And then I get extremely encouraged and happy to see many people (not only our youth) who are constantly having an urge to learn, to inform, to achieve. No I am not talking of achievement only in terms of career, wealth or people. Achievement that comes out of honest efforts put in, that, is our driving force. Because that drive is what I call LIFE, not the beating of the heart which is just a proof that we are alive. That drive keeps us informed and open to more knowledge, and to me gaining knowledge from anywhere and everywhere is the key to happiness & peace, it is key to LIFE.
That is why I like the song which has a few words in between like "Choone hai taare isse, chahiye saare isse". - I want to touch the stars, I want to touch not one but all.
That's how should be our quest for knowledge.

My First time

Well, well, well. My first time blogging friends! I am rather surprised that I would give in to this art someday. Maybe, a hidden desire to write write and write simply because of my fascination for this language, a language that has so much of panache.

I think I have written enough for the day, or should I say its the excitement to see how this appears on the web right now thats keeping this short.

I will soon write more as I think the time is ripe for me to fill my blog with interesting if not intellectual stuff.
