Rendezvous’

Hiiiiii all!!!

I think I have become an addict to my blog coz I feel I need 2 write everyday…anyways lets get back ,Today will be writing about a rendezvous with a great person..........

Any guesses who???? Okk let’s cut out the suspense, the entire day today I had a Rendezvous with none other then the Father of the Nation “MAHATMA GANDHI”.....

Not that am a massive fan of his or anything of that sort it’s just that I have an entire subject for my master’s exam on Gandhi..Personally talking am not at all a Gandhian person, but there’s something striking about the person..Frankly speaking am a complete supporter of Tilak and his ways , but somehow am quite surprised about Gandhi being a man who’s simple in thought an expression is responsible for making our country independent ,his concepts and funda’s were different from all , but what makes me think is that had he been alive today am sure he would be applaud at the scenario India’s facing right from reservation to communalism to regionalism to terrorism to IPL he would have just wondered and said I strived to get this country independent my efforts were in vain??

Really it just gets me thinking how many of us would go the Gandhian way to get things how many of us still believe in truth and non violence. Gawd had it Gandhi been alive and seen me and my non violence he would have really changed his concepts (hehehe ) ,but jokes apart the man had guts he had guts to do everything in his way to get the country free, to bring about the upliftment of the society and people at large. Again do we even really appreciate? What‘s with us today’s Gen X, has a different attitude all linked up with the corporate world? Frankly how many of us would carry out a Satyagraha for some injustice done to us or anyone else? How many of us would want to wear khadi or carry out spinning as our profession?? Sound’s impossible doesn’t it? But it was Gandhi who did the impossible..Gandhi though born in a traditional Vaishnav family, man with great modern thoughts, believer in Satya N Ahimsa, communal harmony?? My my how did he just do it.. Now I really need to learn the perseverance he had…actually we all need too..Isn’t it? He had this hatke view of almost everything from Hindu –Muslim unity to untouchability wow!!! Hardly anyone of us could have this kind of point of view?

But then I think, somewhere down the lane we have let him down, for all that we think we do, actually there are hardly people who follow him and his concepts and believe in his philosophy ,may be because its not possible with the situation around us. But why don’t we try making a difference in small ways ………..may be we can all begin with a small start…y don't we start with family n friends itself???
i think now my family n friends are going to see some changes in me in small ways..

plzzzz gharwalo n dosto dunn be surprised by the change….it’s still the same devilish meeee…..

It’s time to go….before going something which Gandhi said in regard to communal harmony; he says
“ to restore normal life the least one can do is be wholly truthful & non-violent. Then one will fear no one but God. Such are the men of courage. All parties will make friends with them and even goondas will shed their goondaism before them”….

Impressive isn’t it!!! So see u all next time with something new….till then.............. Auf Wiedersehen!!

F.R.I.E.N.D.S

hellooooooooooooooo people........
Hope we all are in pink of health...writing my second post..gawd its hard 2 decide what to write about..so many thoughts just like a MIXED BAG!!

A day or two before I happened to meet a schoolmate after ages who somehow did not acknowledge i thought to myself its “OK it happens” later again that very day i met another schoolmate (who also happened to be my bench partner) who from nowhere shouted out my name and then we started talking the regular stuff,suddenly she turned down the memory lane and surprised me by remembering all the school fun we had right from how we sat together to all my nakharas in school...she also says " i have changed" that really made me think hard "have I changed"???? and "have I changed for good or Bad"?? but then i got the answer and said to myself that whatever happens, happens for good! certain responses from friends does gets my mind ticking must say..

Lets switch the topic lets talk about friends..i have always heard that friends are the angels God has sent for us...sounds interesting doesn’t it? in this context have to say that am a huge fan of this HBO series named "SEX n THE CITY"...the series is just about 4 friends living in the city of New York with all the dazzling lights, fun, love, fashion, and promiscuity all of them with a different stories but friends forever, this to me is an inspiration of friends. Friends: very few of them stick around to the end . It just randomly came to me that its actually not about who came first or who came last its actually about who stuck up with you till the end… our life itself makes us understand the fact that who are our real friends! Are they the one’ s who royally flatter u away and just make use of you or are they the one who there for u all along even when u have a terrible bitter fight with them??? Something to think about? In regard to this it just dawned upon that friends are those people who stand by you in all circumstances, they are those who always tell you “YOU CAN DO IT” I’m very glad that I have a few special friends who are there for me whenever needed just a beck and call and they are there, they have been my greatest critics and my greatest teacher in all walks of life be it professional or personal.

In this context a very special mention which I needed to make and which most of u will agree upon is that one of our very dear n closest friends are “ our Parents” be it anything they are always there right from the beginning to the end. So I think we need to ponder upon have we ever appreciated our parents for being our best friends in spite of the fact that we don’t consider them to be one but the fact is they are????

So keeping that thought in mind & I need to get back with books!!!
Would want to conclude with few lines of the song “I’ll be there for you”
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too... :-)
So keep reading n keep thinking!!!!! Ciao

thinking me

hii all !!
A new addition to the blogger zone n that's me lavita. fondly known as lavi n chubby.. for writing a blog was something which I imagined I'd never do?? but still its worth a try?

Was in deep thoughts so as to what do i write in my first post, so i decided to start writing about myself.talking about myself leads me to a question that why is it difficult to write about ourselves? our we scared to know ourselves better?? or our we scared to judge or analyze ourselves??? never thought about it.anyways back 2 my topic about myself..can say a young lady heading on to lead a carefree life,confused about certain aspects of life,have wonderful parents (mwah mwah), adorable friends & also inclusive of Mr.Special who can never be mine(fingers crossed)apart from the fairy tail part life has been pretty generous on me from being a complete pampered brat to dadda's little girl and now into a young lady holding her breath as life's playing its game.But still what the heck its a wonderful life???

Trying to analyze my self i find myself pretty confident,bold,a full on nautanki,a friend for a friend and a foe for a foe..i have always believed in myself my instincts and intuitions for me as Gandhi says "truth always triumphs"..
always believed in the fact that hard work pays off and pays off well
One thing which struck me through is that "every day of our life's we learn a lesson" its just up to us to grasp it or not. Recently a prof.of mine just gave us a concept on life "she plainly said why you all worried about life if you think there's a problem and you give up finding a solution just chill and face the problem when its right in front of you and that moment just give it your best shot don't spend time thinking over and over it" this concept just clicked and so its implemented and guess what i have implemented it to my upcoming Master's exams..which is just 5 days to go and am still a blank page with confused thoughts hovering all over my mind. must say my Prof.had a fab funda of life which is proving to be very very useful..so with a Chak de phatte attitude i'm gonna face my upcoming Master's exams and all exams of life. and I'm hoping to succeed in all avenues of life after all "Hope is the highest kite one can fly"(courtesy a frdn)
So this was a little something of the random thoughts in my mind just to end up with a quote:
LiFe IsNt EaSy It GiVzZ u AlL pOsSiBlE tROuBlEs ... BuT dOnT GiVe Up .... FiGhT iT & DeFeAT LiFe ... & LiVe HaPpIlY & SuCcEsSfUlLy :$ ♥ ♥
by Amanda Dourado (my chweet lil cuzn)

so folks !!! that's all for now, will be back with sum more confusing thoughts.
(p.s: please excuse my flaws coz am somehow a novice to the world of blogging and writing.just penning down my random thoughts hope u find it interesting)
