This one is totally not my kinds but I am trying to put it in words!!
Major topic in everyone's life!! LOVE....wow....no too much philosophy but just a small narration.
I observe people for reasons unknown to me, times unknown and some observations just remain deep within me and come out like this one!!
This was on a very busy road near Vijaynagar (Bangalore) .......I was walking my way on a hot summer afternoon with all my madness. I thought I was the only one mad but as I walked I saw a cute couple with their faces shining bright in love.(unmarried, but in love for life)
Both of them looked very cute and walked hand in hand.(very much Bollywood) One could see the love in them as they walked amidst the crowded street yet in their own sweet world of 'love'. Appreciable for their age and to my critical eye they walked very respectable.
I was to cross the road with this couple ahead. I was watching them continuously!! The lady in love was quick and the gentleman was careful about his love.......What a moment it was when this girl took a step to cross the road and the traffic rushed from the other end of the road.
He was prepared and knew her moves. He spontaneously pulled her back with all the force his in his hands and all the love in his heart, stepping back she turned to look into his eyes....And they looked at each other as the traffic and people continued with their respective tasks.....none watched them...but they watched each other and felt no one there.
She waited for him to speak, but he smiled and the had everything said to each other with no words. Moments froze.....for them with each other and for me with questions!!
Why was it that I could feel that they were in love???
Pulling her back and looking into each others eyes...was this love???
What was it that was spoken and still remained unsaid???
What was it that was understood just by the two of them???
How was it that they had their world amidst the crowds???
How was it that he knew her so well???
What was she waiting for?? a smile or words as I thought???
Did she really wait for anything or was it just my illusion???
Was it a moment of love that I witnessed???
IS THIS LOVE???
If it was may their love flourish and may they together live happily all their life!
To this couple it was just another moment of love in life, which they might not have noticed themselves. But for me it was among those moments when something was strange now and became familiar in a matter of time!!
Cheers to lives in love !!

I killed it........
Life is beautiful with the simple pleasures hidden in it.
A moment when you lived a life time. A few moments in life when you did good, you felt good, when you laughed, when you made some one happy, when you supported some one who needed you, when you know you are valued and many more!!!
I would not deny of the greater pleasures too. But I never could define to myself clearly both simple pleasures and the greater pleasures, this is just for a simple reason that I dint have enough time to decide whether it was simple or a great one while I was experiencing it! It was 'pleasure'......'Happiness'. I could just name a relationship that I am living as "Happiness", as that is one thing everyone in life wants and waits for!!!
In this post what I wanted to write was about a butterfly. A black butterfly with bright yellow spots.....it was amazingly sexy to look at. This petty thing was inside my house during the heat of summer and with the fans and the AC running in full spin all over. I was a little anxious about the life of this short lived species which was flying all over the house. I opened up all doors and windows, switching off all these running electrical equipments for it to fly out. I was busy chasing it out of the house while my dad desperately was switching on all these equipments again.
I took a cloth to trap the B.fly and set it free out in the garden.....I was a little at peace and returned to my room to continue with work. I switched on my fan and turned around to notice the sexy black fly had followed me inside my room and one of the fan blade was to hit the blacky. It just fell on the pile of books. It dint move.....it was lying with its wings open and i could see the bright yellow and black contrast on them.....I felt I had killed the beautiful creation, which after a very long time had got a smile on my face. I was sad and my eyes filled with tears. I watched it for a minute. I could not think of any better and delicately took it on my hands to put it back in the garden. I walked to the garden cursing myself to have killed it. The leaf i felt would be right for it...and to my wonder with the touch of the leaf the dead can alive! It was flying again! It was alive!
I smiled again.....and the reason again was the butterfly!

Police encounters!
It dint seem like a wait........
I was reminded of this old incident while riding and I was at a signal. A very close friend of mine and me were at the same signal a few months ago, it was a traffic jam as always and we were hungry.Both of us are observant and look around at people and were looking at the very busy traffic which was being guided by a traffic police man, who looked very typically Indian with his huge belly falling out. Our eyes stuck to the traffic police man who stood guiding and monitoring the traffic but in a very different style. His actions to guide the traffic seemed like he was dancing and to add to that were his expressions.
We just continued to watch the police man and waited for his hilarious actions that matched his expressions one after the other. We did not take note of the time as we watched this unique person. But soon it was our end of the traffic that was signaled move ahead and I looked out of the window to have a last glimpse at the wonderful police man.....I turned and looked at my friend and we laughed all throughout till we finished our lunch and even now laugh at it when ever we are reminded of this incident......May be he was trying to enjoy his job and we enjoy it even to this day. The traffic jams in Bangalore are very unpleasant, especially when one is hungry. But this one dint seem like a wait !!

Yummy Badam milk!! Another encounter with an Indian traffic controller.This time it was in the heart of the city, Avenue road which is a puzzle with the 'one way' lanes changing on an hourly basis. At about 7pm my brother and myself ended up here doing some last minute shopping for medicines before his travel to the US. It was a hunt for a specific medicine from a specific store. To top it all it was raining.We were both enjoying the rain and it was not barricade for our search.
With all these happenings around us a 'one way' is where we entered without noticing the sign board. As expected we were caught by the police. My little bro dint have any of the documents and was riding with a learners license.
We parked the vehicle aside and stood inside a sweet shop for our interrogation! Now we were questioned by the police man.The usual questioning form the police started......from where?, why?, for what? and we are both too good at this and we gave him the perfect impression........well I would say we hit the bull's eye! ;) Why bull's eye is because, we answered so well that the police man offered us to have nice and cold Badam milk at the sweet shop where we were standing (which was yummy!) and was sympathetic about collecting a fine from us!!(We could not do much as he had written a receipt as soon as he noticed us!)
A healthy Badam milk, shelter when it was raining, some friendly talks with a police man and all the attention form people around at Rs 100/-!! ;)
These are just a few wonderful incidents and I put them on the blog for people who know to live life for the "present"!!
Cheers to life!

I want to live life backwards.....wow!!!
Well this statement of mine 'I want to live life backwards' just cropped up a little while ago when I was talking to my oldie-goldie friend Namith. We've lived the best of time in life together............We studied together when we were aged 16years. Remembering times then gets a smile on my face.
I will be murdered if I dont mention of Ashu here........she is one other person in life who's cycle knew how to reach a friends house. (PS: Unexpectedly when she visited Namith and me, we had an obvious question........'Ash how come here?' and her answer was 'I dont know my cycle handle just turned towards your home and i'm here)
We have had moments of joy and sprinkles of sadness. We fought as Individuals for the better of each other. To Speak more about Namith, it was times of hardwork (+2 studies). She is one person who is hardworking and as a friend to her I hardly worked with my books. I was dragged by her to my study table for which I am thankful to her else I would not have really moved ahead in life. She would do the study...........I would do the eat and sleep. :)
A few moments that are fresh for a life time -
"yellaru sh...sh...." - courtesy Ashu.
"My birthday(s)..." - courtesy mom.
"fights between me n Namith" - courtesy both of us.
"days at college" - courtesy all 'the gang'.
(This list will be updated as inputs flow in....)
For all others who are not a part of these wonderful days, if you have a good imagination you will enjoy reading this post.
We fought with each other and cried together.
More to come....................

Memories........Life has been quick!!
I still hold memories of myself being a small little girl running around with my dada for ice creams!!I am a person who rarely forgets any happenings of life...........especially my own...........but I forget only one out of all........."My textbooks!!"
I would consider myself the luckiest in life for having the most beautiful people around me and still consider unlucky for the same reason.........And I would like to dedicate this blog to all those wonderful people who have been with me and made me what I am today!!
Thank You all!!
I have loved my childhood for all the terror(a pleasant one!!) I have been to my teachers and friends at school........may be 10 different schools(this is only because my dad was in a transferable job and not because I was a terror) and the number of teachers and friends. It was amazing for all that my mom narrates to me of my childhood and all that I personally remember. Growing up!! My dear ones say I still have not......
My life has been an open book to all but to read between the lines is not every body's cup of tea.........Well what is for all to read in the book will be read the rest is always the unexpected to all.........
I am curious about everything on earth..........at times about myself too.........
Extremes........what extremes of life I swing upto or to what extremes life takes me upto I will try and put into this blog..........
Cheers!

For someone very special..........
A sigh of despair, a joy of hopesHeavy heart but faithful dreamsShadow of the past, a beacon of lightLost, yet found myself on my flight.
As I defied gravity, my heart roseBlowing bubbles of memories, the time frozeAll I could see was your dear smileAnd the shreds of my heart on the aisle.
Unspoken words that never found their way,Tears frozen, I still had something to sayHidden behind the smile was a world,Of horror, like blood on the edge of a sword.
The broken pieces were still with a glimmer,With the hope you'll mend it sooner or laterThe smile you had taught came in handyFor the world would see me joyous and dandy.
But life never stops, pushes and pulls youIn a flash, I faced a world completely newNew thoughts, new choices, a new endeavorBut none forever, none so dear.
I forced myself on the ground of realityConvinced hopes were just a lack of clarityI let my mind flow where the wind blewWhat I was to lose, I never knew.
Taunted, distressed my heart was thrownThrough the fire of present, maze of the knownI realized I preferred the hope, the dreamThat some day you'll surely hear my scream

Let my heart slip past your sorrowsIt might cure your doubtsLet my lonely soul get on your boatTogether, the smile might stay afloat.
As I still struggle to see what's trueAnd hope to make my way through,Your memories make my life a grand showLike a vivid rainbow, pearly white snow.
As the day ends and night prevails,I close my eyes, the time sailsMy mind wanders in your world, the world of dreamsThen the sun shines again, world resumes but the hope remains.

Good Luck!
The day will come, not so far
You'll be loved, your love will soar
You'll be loved, your love will soar
Trust these words, lets the angels behold
For your trust is sure and belief untold
Close your eyes and feel the beauty around
Life cries and laughs, moves in a circle round and round
Today's sorrows will enrich the joys to come
Those moments will wait for you, just reach and run
that was yours
For your trust is sure and belief untold
Close your eyes and feel the beauty around
Life cries and laughs, moves in a circle round and round
Today's sorrows will enrich the joys to come
Those moments will wait for you, just reach and run
that was yours

" He who falls in love with himself will have no rivals!! "
But its not really that easy a job to fall in love with yourself. To know the true worth of yourself as a human it is important to know how much love you receive when you don't return the same!!
" What the world calls the end of a caterpillars life, god called it a butterfly! "
Is it really so easy to accept change in life? Not really with every change happening in life do i see a butterfly emerging out!!
" Life is always the way you look at it!! "
I do try and look at life very positively only when life looks at me positively......
"Life, at its best, is unpredictable!! "
I agree to this whenever something really good happens in life!
"ALWAYS EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!!!"
Quite right!! Just hoping the unexpected to be good and not a hard pinch.
" It doesn't promise you anything, it doesn't take you by the hand, or show you all your destinations.For some, life just doesn't have any revelations!!"
But I just hope it does not have to take away all the good it reveals!!
Any comments and reactions may please be put across!!! And for all those who feel this is crap "I'm sorry, I don't really care a **** if you feel so....."
Cheers to life!
