Never Ever alone......


A young Child who believed in Fairy Tales,
One day her Man would come and steal her heart away...

She saw her friends feel happiness in Love ,
But she never understood why it never happened  with her....

When she grew up fate played its games,
She came across men to try to find her soul mate....

Not one man who she believed in so strongly,
could make her feel ,the warmth that she dreamt of so dearly....

Her Loneliness was growing in her,
She knew not what to do....

She worked and worked for hours together,
Just to tell time to hold.....

Then came the first day she saw him,
the Smile made her feel she had known him, since eternity....

The naughtiness, the caress that she could not behold,
made her know , he is the dream of her soul.....

He stepped into her life like the Twin Soul,
and made her feel herself like never before....

They would ride past the streets and pathways ,
and time flew like wind in the breeze of togetherness....


They would think, do and act alike,
God had made them at the same time....


It was just that God forgot,
that on Earth Time decides....

Life took a second twist and bitter truth came to light,
They were never to be together as years could not abide....

He left her and flew miles away,
He took her heart and also her soul away....

She Lived  life like a Hollow tree ,
A body without the soul and the heart beats...

Years went by again and she could not find him ,
It felt like an unsung song, waiting for its beats....

Then the Blooms came in with the changing seasons ,
She could see him , waiting to be abloom....

She ran into his arms , her happiness could not be expressed,
Her life had re-found the meaning that she had long lost in the wilderness....

She realised the bitter truth was not gone,
yet her trust and love in him grew abound.....

This time it was sure,he was her Twin Soul, 
And her Love knew it had reached the right chorus....

When she hardly could have known him,
God gave her a big Blow....

The Bitter truth was showing its face,
In her heart of hearts she knew....

She tried to confront it,
It simply would not let her at ease....

What she knew was,
It has to be given more lease…

She had to speak to her heart ,
and so it was agreed....

It was agreed upon that childhood dreams do come true,
Only that they lasts till time takes its toll...

That she cannot help but let it go,
Just like the first time , when he returned for her to make her aglow….

It also agreed to the happiness within,
That She had found her twin soul, just not her Soul Mate....

Her soul said aloud,
Its all for Change to happen soon...


Yet she is still awaiting  for the magic to happen,
That one day when she would never be alone.... Never ever alone...

Change with more Love....

Often have heard this " There are no free Lunches". What I do not yet understand is how do I relate myself to it? Let me talk to you one on one to see if there is something I can take back on this quote!


If I take it on my Professional Front - Somehow I am ok with the meaning of the quote . I say this cause it has to be true that the people you want work from should not take you for granted. In Business the balance that is needed to handle so many people , it is important to have a code of conduct. The discipline has to be maintained as one staff can relate to the other and there can be a lot of problems. One simple example could be that a Staff is asking for leave very often and if he is never refused , others who are more sincere will have grudges against him and obviously the company . Here the imbalance will be a major problem.


Now if I talk on a Personal Front-here is what is just not getting into me. I am confused by the fact that when you have someone who knows you as a person then why is there a need to believe in the words of the quote" there are no free lunches"? Alright i know these big words of- Self Respect and have a Bit of Mystery . I again say I accept this word if its professionally there , On personal front specially with the one you are closest to, I believe in Equal Respect not Self Respect . Close relationships do not work on Self , Relationships work on Equality. Now ok, Here I should make clear also one thing- I am talking of a Close relationship of a Spouse or the one closest to you and not all of them.I have never believed in the Concept of Arranged marriages but on this some other day.


When a Bond is strong there will be many instances where circumstances bring you to a point where you may act or behave differently than you are in usual times. Obviously , that has to happen. Lets say the Husband has  something very important in the work front and the thought process is totally concentrated in it. Here the wife may see the changes in his behaviour and may also get angry at times that the attention towards her is divided. It is this very time that if she ever understood that her reaction was not wrong but also that she cannot expect attention from her spouse. Infact , if it so happens that the attention is given , it may not be to the best and then there will be more complains. It has to be true the other way round as well and then the Husband needs to understand.


Ok maybe I get a different picture of the quote here . It may also say that the understanding should be mutual. If one understands and the Equal respect exists the Mechanics of the Quote change gears ! They simply mean Respecting the Space both the partners need. 


I guess this is where the present generation is not able to adjust. There is either no space given as infidelity is at an all time high or the space is too much that invariably infidelity comes in.Also the meaning of the Quote does not change for different situations , Personally and professionally. Yes I know its easy to just type these words but having seen it in Healthy relations its the total Trust that matters in the end. But its certainly not going to work if the mistake is never rectified and repeated again and again.


To put the meaning of the Quote in my words I would say  - Never let there be Change with a negative impact to break relations till it can be worked for but  a Change with more Love !!!

Untold, Untouched yet it is Felt..

Was hearing the Song by Michael Jackson - " We are the World, We are the Children, We are the Ones to make a Brighter day so lets start Giving"


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEmvEeDiwQU


There are so many Beautiful things around us which are " Untold, Untouched but yet we Feel them". If just once we take time to look around even when we are driving past to go somewhere ,  we find so many such times when we feel but are we not just driving past!


Life is exactly the same drive. We have to move but we do not have time to make changes in Our path to make it beautiful.


Take a little while to get things just right your way. We certainly have a beautiful life but its our take on it. LIVE HAPPY, BE HAPPY and MAKE OTHERS HAPPY!


IT IS NOT DIFFICULT!  :-)


This is just the start... The Journey continues......

A Whirlwind …. Peace Demanded….



The whirlwind of Life where no words could define,
Where the heart says the truth and it conflicts the mind.
Where decisions are taken and tested with time,
Where peace is demanded and does not live by your side.

 When one looks around and a path needs to be decided,
It’s the moment of truth that leads you to the guidance.
It’s the realization of the Life that you want to lead,
Unbiased by every side ,that requires to be treaded.

It requires the courage and confidence in you,
To make the first step work for you.
It requires in you the Will to be at peace,
Or to succumb to the Whirlwind, that drifts you with ease.

There will be not one, but enormous of these,
The times when we let others to lead.
It is such a time when the need arises,
To believe either your Heart or your Mind.

Its this very hour of time when decisions are taken,
To Be yourself or fall in with the other kinds.

Let not the Whirlwind drift you apart,
Make use of the energy it carries,
To give you a start.

Let  the Start be your Motto  in Life ,
To build a Home of your very own kind.
Where Peace is not demanded
But loves to reside,
In the very Home that can give it Happiness and Pride.

IF I COULD CHANGE.....



Given a choice to change, frankly I went Blank for a while. Then a Question Popped up- Why am I blank?!!!  Is it because I have nothing to change (surely not true I said) or was it too many things that I just did not know Where to start and where to end  it (Now that feels better, Lol!). A Cup of tea, a talk with my heart and my little brain said, “Buddy, you were right when you felt you want  so much to change”! 

Let me very humbly first  let you know that the words below may not be liked by a few of you , some of you may want to stop reading . Some of you are just still reading on and some of you have mixed feelings – Read or Stop reading is running through your mind, Right! Sorry Friends, but this was important to write because- For those who are still reading- this is the change I want to see happen.  It is called “ Patience , Tolerance and Adaptability to Take  Action for the Good to Happen” . Yeah It indeed is a lot of change  and practically impossible to get. But If I say- Can I start with myself now, I am sure that’s a bit of a Relief !

So, we all like to pass the baton to the one who started to think of a change.  This is how it has been 99 out of the 100 times.  But when the 01 time left when people could have like mindedness happened- we saw the revolution take place. Good and Bad both Revolutions. Then be it Hitler, Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, or recently, Anna Hazare , Barrack Obama to come in Power…

Sadly Revolution for Good happened less –Example of a good one can be  whenever a Country is given freedom.  But once Freedom Given it cannot be left to the new Government formed or in hands of those few. A Change and a Positive one will only happen if all the people come together to make a New Home for them to live. If we see our Country after Independence , what is there right now?

We are still in a stage of development. With so many Cultures and Traditions and the Caste systems and the mindset of those who treat Humans based on Caste , Religion and the age old rituals, where are we heading towards?  We still have the Girl Child being killed, Literacy rate still not a good picture , Women not Safe to walk the streets alone and dominated by the horrible Stingy Men folk, Terrorism at its highest and going stronger , Youth into addiction and not decisive to take action because we have no Structured system in place. They are in a stage of confusion as when they are growing up they find Goodness has no Value. Parents are the ones who are responsible to inculcate Values in the Children, sadly Parents have no time and the only thing they see around is uncertainty. So we leave Our Children with the Nannies and expect good values to be there in Our Children. It’s so Disgusting to me!

Certainly Good is also happening but we see so much of Bad that Goodness has lost its value . We have to adapt to the New times. We have no choice… Either Change or silently perish but not at the Cost of our  GOOD VALUES. I say GOOD VALUES because I also believe that our parents Values held true in their times and I respect them but I have seen a World my way too. And if I am sure that the Change I want will be a Happy Change even if it takes some time for my parents to accept, I will go ahead.  This is the confidence that is needed in the Youth today. There are Extreme cases too who are too adventurous so they must realize that You can use fire to warm you but you never know when it comes up in flames to burn you! Beware…Excess of Everything is Bad…

Can you trust anyone blindly? Count the ones you can and then the reality strikes in! Even if we have a few names , we are still doubting.  Oh , this is not the World we want to live in. For those who have to say here, This is the real world , May I ask who made it this way? Its we humans , right? So if we want , WE HAVE IT IN US TO MAKE THE CHANGE HAPPEN!  BUT , IF ONLY WE WANT!

Ok , there are lot of difference of opinions here  as well here ,but why do we not have the Courage to take action against the Wrong and try to make a change ? What is stopping us and WHY ? We want to get things done quickly (no Patience!) even if it may not have a positive effect , we have intolerance towards so many things and we are not wanting to Change(Non Adaptability!) . We so easily say, I am not going to change , Why should I ? Oh come on, if we do not rise up to take charge then we also do not have the right to Complain about things around us . We are the only ones who can solve our own problems.
If each one of us could once realize that Change will take place inevitably but to have a Structured Positive One we all have to stand up and do a bit of our Good work…. We surely will see things work our way.

A Stop Press came my way just before I was posting –
When I was young and free, my imagination had no limits. I dreamed of changing the world.
 As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the World had not changed, so I shortened my Sights somewhat and decided to change only my Country.
As I grew into my Twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me.
But alas, they would have none of it.
And now as I lay on my deathbed, I suddenly realize. If I would have only changed myself first, then by example I would have changed my family. From their Inspiration and Encouragement I would then have been able to better my country and Who Knows-
I may have even changed the World!

I will go on and on with this but this is what I believe in as Tagore wrote- Where the Mind is without fear and the Head is Held high. Where Knowledge is free. Where the World has not been broken up into fragments by Narrow domestic Walls. Where the Clear Stream of Reason has not lost its way into the dreary dessert sand of dead habit. Into that Heaven of Freedom my Father… Let my Country Awake!

"Find your way Out"

Very So often we are on a Path that we know is pain but will eventually bring happiness , It is certainly the other way round as well when we are on a beautiful fun filled path and we are prepared that in the end its going to be painful. Either ways its the Journey that matters and not the destination. 

What must be the feeling of young soldier who has been sent on War for the very first time? He has to be there facing the enemy right in front and fulfilling his duty . He does not know he will Win the War or Loose it but he does his duty. We can only imagine how his heart may be feeling at that point of time .After all we all have a Conscious no matter who it is , a Saint or a Murderer , and Conscious never lies. This Soldier may come back with anything or may perish, the End is uncertain but what he did was to fulfil his duty. It was the Will to go on and on till anything could happen. Yes anything ....I find this uncomfortable to say being so secure in my home ...but there they are doing it every single time they have to.

Pain and Laughter are there just with the unknown destination . Today we may feel we have planned our years well and we will be happy but it may not be so. Can we guarantee our future ? I am afraid no one can ever and those who think they have are living in an Artificial World , a Hypothetical World of Bubbles that will never last forever. Sadly the Good times will fly off and they will be left to only say "I WISH I DID THIS...I WISH ...AND I WISH.........There will certainly be endless wishes . 

So is the Journey to whatever we are facing the Most Important. Yes it indeed is. Nothing eventually lasts forever. What lasts is the journey that you wish to take in your stride. Imagine if we were lost in a jungle , what would be our action?  . 

This is exactly what we have to do. "Find Our Way Out"! Whether in Pain or Laughter, keep moving . There will be hurdles everywhere when you may want to give up and this happens in times of pain but once you accept the pain it makes you feel at peace and makes you a stronger person . 

We have This Life to Owe Good or Bad. Things may not be as we want, People will hurt us  , We may loose materialistic things but We all " Find Our way out" . When there is a Beginning there has to be an end. Is it not good to say - " Ask God not to decrease your pains but to make you a Stronger person to face them".We will be fools asking God to keep us happy forever. Accept Life and only Plan to be Stronger day by day . Enjoy the Journey, Learn your Lessons and I am sure the End will be ALWAYS ALWAYS HAPPIER!

Video Game Called- Time Game of God and Man......


A small Video Game for Life taking the present scenario of life as most of us are living.

The game is named –  Time Game of God and Man

No. of Players- Unlimited
Names of Players- Your own name
Choose between- Good or Bad
Number of Lives- 01

Rules-  The choice -Good has only 2 Players , one is you yourself and the other God. The Bad has unlimited players that you want to choose. You even have the option to kill them or leave them when you do not need them and you can also get back but only 1 out of them  back who will be by your side at the end of the game.The Game has no winners but it does have a Certificate at the end of the game for you!


Caution- The Game can be played only once and has no Cheat codes so your Name Certificate will be given only once . You cannot pause and renew the game in between and you have 1 hour to play this game.

And so we start choosing.

Good – Yeah we all want to be the Good  but we all are good in real lives Right , 
So lets select –BAD ! And there are so many friends out there as many as I want....

And we press – START

As the game progresses we keep trying and moving on . We hear conversations like:

Hey someone just betrayed me , and you hear someone say-  Oh live on dear , that’s life.

You know my friend just brought a convertible car. And you hear, Hey, Don’t worry its just a matter of time when I will have one or I shall get this very car !

The News is full of Corruption! And you hear, Big deal, how do you think they will be able to live up to the rising expenses.

Lol , this is actually our life , Right dear?The Game eventually Ends and lets now discuss the certificate.

So we all know and cannot deny this Game called- “Time Game of God and Man”. We are all here playing our roles as we choose. Did you hear this friends- “AS WE CHOOSE” ?

We are forced by circumstances and maybe sometimes not and we take our very own Choice and decision to choose the way of life .. Struggle in Loneliness by being Good or enjoy company of friends who are Friends just for namesake.

We are living in a Virtual World. We are so happy with technology around us. We express ourselves with the emoticons on our mobiles and that suffices for our distances we share with the Loved ones. Pardon my words that I never use but want to use here- HELL IT IS! Can you express the feeling of a Smile or Hug by a Virtual media ? Its just a way to accept a fact that atleast we are in touch ! Fair enough, but that’s also the reason of the detachments one is so easily able to have. Divorce, infidelity, Heartbreaks, Depressions , Insecurity…..Is the ultimate result in the real World.

Oh yes we do have Skype, G-talk etc where we can see each other but that is Virtual too. We have internet marriages too. Now this makes me laugh at the fact that if one does not have the time to come for one’s own marriage , what the hell is this person upto?

And we have the people who are choosing to Hack data and enemies are getting all the secrets .Terrorism , Corruption , Mafias …all are having the best times of their lives.

Our Generation wants exposure –more and more and more. Very fine one should but not at the cost of doing Wrong, to ANYONE

Well saying more than that I am in a concern how mechanical our lives have become. As I am writing this Blackberry services are not working since 2.52 pm precisely from 10 Oct ’11, as that’s when I used my BBM last and waiting for a reply I did not get one. Later Confirmed from Hyderabad, Maharashtra and Chattisgarh, nowhere BB services are active on any server. Only by today morning we got to know the RIM Problem from Blackberry Company all over Asia , Middle East, Europe.Yet there are disruptions on. (Can you see how dependent I am too , coz if I am not,  I loose the Game of Life, obviously who wants, so am forced by my own Will!)

The age Blackberrys, I- Pads , Tablets and you name them all are here  . There is no dearth of information available as the world has been shrinking at a pace like never before.Yeah the age of Internet and Intranet!

As the shrinking grows faster, do we ever realize that its also making us so very vulnerable . We are sharing information about every small thing we are upto. Be it at home, at office or even a walk , the addiction of bbm or chat for that matter has become so very stylish. We instead of living in the real world are very contented with the Virtual world. And this is the major cause of the vulnerability. The children, teenagers all of them take life as a Game and its just the Start and End .The Game just happens to move as we move it.

We have heard innumerable MMS Scams, Data Hackings , Phishing etc. Are we not smart enough to know that this could be by the enemy countries also. Our dearest Parliament wants to digitalize everything , yeah that’s cool but man what about the privacy ? Our Country secrets can be so easily deciphered to the enemies and we will be taken in by surprise.

THE TECHNOWAR GAME - Time Game of God and Man has BEGUN and the 01 Life we have is ticking!  We have no eraser than to just move on and try and rectify our mistakes as much as we can.

 THE JOY STICK IS WITH US , CHOOSE YOUR GAME PLAN TO BE GOOD AND DO'NT FORGET THE CERTIFICATE AWAITS AFTER THE END....
