The Mumbai Rains

Its deja-Vu of 26/7/2005 in Mumbai. The rivers are clogged and so are the drainages. Though the goverment is a little organised and prepared this time around, still the fear rests. Holidays are also raining as people are adviced to stay in doors.Though the banks are open and so are the ATM's (phew!). They are claiming to have about 85 water pumps as opposed to 25 last year. Seriously in these day's I think I am fortunate enough to live where the life rarely gets "interesting".
Today, or rather early tomorrow IST. France takes on Portugal head-on for the place in the semi-finals of the world-cup. The Italy-Germany match was awesome. Though I watched it till half-time only, heard the Del-Piero's goal in the last 1 minute of the match. Just thinking on the same lines what goes in to make a hero?
Heros are not momentary. They have the ability to push even when they hate what they are doing. I contend with the conventional line " Do what your heart says." We should listen to our hearts. But more often than not, heart is what is correct but not necessarily right. Its the brain that tells us to move on and do something when we dont want to. Remeber the times when you didnt want to study. Your heart says "sing with the rains." but your brain says "study, because thats what will help you to climb up the chains."

Love hath arrived....

Well if you are looking for an answer to the question, "what is love?", please hit Crtl+ Alt+Del right now. And I suggest you pick up a Eric Segal or an equivalent Mills and Boon. I don't know what love is. Or rather, I don't what love means to you. The thought here is purely personal. For me love just means happiness of the person you love. Unprejudiced, unbiased. Its easier said than done. Because It's very hard to love someone without judging them for what they are. Think for a moment that love is like a sunrise. Do you possess the sunrise? No. Do you judge it for what it is? No. What you do is just bask in it and feel the brilliance on you. And then feel gratitude for it being in your life. Love is more or less like it. More because it doesn't take place at a certain time of a day. More because it fills your heart with radiance to such a level that you don't want to posses the person you love. More because it shows you twilight before it rises complete...

The Broken Needle

People say I am a funny guy . You guys better be serious about that. :) Since I am funny, I will never take life seriously. I know I will never come out of it alive. Then why bother over split milk, pestering bosses, broken hearts and less yearly bonus? Cursing someone who has put you in that zone is preciously worthless. When will you realize that those people outside are never a problem?They are meant to hate, attract, tempt, gossip and snob. They are people after all. For someone else, you are a part of those "people." The problem is your identification with them. So forget what happened the other night or why she did this and that. If you are not meant to be together you are not meant to be together. Cut your losses and move on. But don't forget to send her the bill. :) Life is more beautiful than someone who doesn't want to be with you. So get up, flirt with the next door girl , wipe somebody's tears, donate some money, ride a bike, click some photos, crack ...
