                                               SivaKarthikeyan --One of the very well known faces in my part of world especially for his terrific clean sense of humour --witty one liners --luvely mimicry skills -and for his lively anchoring in Vijay TV--in very sucessful programs like "Athu Ithu Ethu ",was someone i accidentally i met upon a few years before when i moved to Chennai --i actually happened to meet him in very late hours with lot of other people --i hardly took notice of him initially --we had few exchanges ,he seemd a simple humble person on first look --and later i got to know he was a junior from the school i studied in my native place and was from my native place ,,Trichy too .his best friends Iyyapan ,Sridhar all were very close brother like friends to me and we all used to meet up pretty regularly--and Siva never came across as a fast rising celebrity in making --He had a huge fan following --people loved the way he made comedy in a clean way --he never tried to hurt anyone's feelings yet turned up to be one of sucessful stand up comedians in our part of world,The foremost thing that stood was always his simplicity ---fame ,money --increasing attraction never seemd to make him a different person.
                                     

  An Incident from last year at New Woodlands Hotel  :
                                     During a small  bday  function last year --i had called upon Iyyapan and Sridhar to specially call Siva as a invitee to join in a family function --he immediately accepted and said would be there at the function (Here s a scoop fact --Siva has absolutely zero rememberance for roads in chennai ,:P)--It happend in New Woodland's hotel --and it was birthday function and Siva was late in joining in --but he eventually joined in when everyone were into dinner --He exchanged pleasantries with everyone --My dad who doesnt see much TV and acceptedly doesnt know about upcoming stars and ppl--he was less interested in those facts which i knew but what i didnt know was what followed --we all introduced Siva to Dad --and said this is Siva and said about his anchoring and him being a up and coming star --Dad said with blank expression coated with innocence -"I dont know about shows you are talking neither have i seen Siva in it "--I felt bit bit embarassed even though Dad was honest as ever everyone was blinking in slight embarassment ---Siva ever with presence of mind as silver lightning and unwavering respect for elders--came forward to dad and said "Its ok appa  -Just remember  me as your son from now on ---i dont have my father now with me  ---i consider u to be like my father --always consider me as a brother to your son thats all --Just consider me a son --Always "---I was for a moment startled and happy as hell that someone could solve a tricky little embarassment with a truth which  everyone welcomed with a smile --Such was the charisma of the guy --always coated with humbleness respect and sincerity even in delicate situations .Ppl always interested me in life --People who respected values in life --who respected life in right vein --who were prepared to fight odds despite having the huge pain of living with a single parent from young age --I know how it feels as i lost my wonderous mother at very young age .I knew then i knew someone who would never act in life !!

With Iyyapan ,Sridhar and Siva last yr

                                 If i want to give links to some of his masterpieces in television then it would be endless --there are lots and lots of shows where he was fantastic --simple --admirable and always with a luvely sense of humour ---to be frank i have not watched all his shows --just few but i know him as a person --and he is one of the nicest persons i have ever known --Yesterday went to his latest movie "Ethir Neechal "-and i just felt happy for him as a person --With decent reviews and  even more stardom approaching him --one thing you could always be sure of Siva is --nothing will affect his basics and nothing will change him as a person --he remains a supportive frd to his best frds of yesteryears -he respects people with same humbleness and approaches everythin with same sincerity tht has made him a star to reckon --When i came out of the theatre a full house night show --i could see people admiring the actor --and i felt even more happier because i know him as a person who never acts in real life ,there can be no better tribute to him than this last line of mine and he richly deserves this .

                              "To Siva --Wishing you all the best brother--Keep Entertaining- Be always the Siva we know -love  !!! "

Rita Gigante -An Inspiring Story !!!

 Here  is what my blog is about ---    http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/people/A-daughters-redemption/articleshow/19894427.cms     
   
                                             I had read about this particular person Miss .Rita Gigante a couple of times in the last few months --the first time i read about in her article in a monthly magazine i was thinking another flashy story to fill up the pages --But when i read through that article it seemed lot different and lot inspiring ---I never had any urge about reading about history regarding crimes or mafias --but i got to know there was a book named "The Godfather's Daughter "by Natasha Stoynoff --I went about trying to find synopsis of that book on internet and read few articles about Rita --it was inspiring enough because it was to me a different kind of braveness ,Something not everyone could do --but everyone should try to do --This person  was born to a one of the biggest crime bosses "Vincent Gigante " acknowledged to be one of the biggest crime boss in America .A few Excerpts from Times of India edition (05.05.13)

                                   Rita Gigante's family looked like any other Italian Catholic family in suburban New Jersey. But there was a difference. Her father was the notorious crime boss Vincent Gigante, the head of all five New York crime families, 1950s onwards. Gigante was officially recognised as the most powerful crime boss in the US, and was dubbed "chin" by the press. However, his daughter, Rita, made a choice to live differently; she dedicated her adult life to healing people spiritually, emotionally, and physically. She also mustered enough courage to come out with her homosexual identity, despite her conservative Italian-Catholic upbringing, not to mention being raised in a mafia household. In her recent book titled, The Godfather's Daughter, Rita writes extensively about her journey from innocence to a harsh cold reality that made her doubt everything about herself, and life.
            Here's why i feel it is inspiring story
          ** She defies and changes the life offered by her dad obviously for it being wrong -it still takes courage for any son/daughter to accept their father as wrong person
          ** She was bold enough to accept she was homosexual --coming out with truth about sexual orientation is no easy deal anywhere in the world --I live in India where it is still thought being Lesbian/Gay is a disease ,unforgiveable sin--(I had previously written a blog where a person claimed it as  disease )
          ** She has taken upto healing people as a profession and life long work --appreciable considering her background which was only built on people's fear --to come out boldy against the same and make it as a chosen profession is a amazing thing to do
          ** She has chosen to live a life of her choice and with the main aim of not cheting herself despite having endless wealth ,power and option to have been a different personality if she had chosen a different path against her heart .
         ** She shows remarkable understanding on the importance of forgiveness and her lines shows she has substance to go along with the path she has chosen --A quote from her in the daily today morning read like the following on question about miracles --she has said

                        " When clients accept the truth about their lives — no matter how hard — and still love themselves unconditionally, it's a miracle. To be able to forgive yourself and to be non-judgmental is also a kind of miracle. I see all these kinds of miracles on a daily basis"
                  -
                            Autobiographies and self confessions always seemed appealing to me because they are from true experience of life --of people accepting mistakes and coming out with suggestions to people not to repeat what they went through-- seems the best example anyone could wish to follow according to me --though im yet to read the full book --whatever i read has surely made me realise one thing clear that Rita Gigante's life is one another example of why "You should go by your heart --Its the best way u will never hurt yourself "

Cheers

                                 

That Glitter In A Girl's Eyes !!!

             (Dedicated to one of my best friends Anu Singh --who got engaged recently )

                     "When a girl gets engaged she officially becomes a woman in a moment "

When my sister got married i felt like -
                          " Till yesterday she was tht little girl ---that best friend --that pleading ,shouting sister - In a moment just like that she got engaged and wow what a glitter in eyes --she seems grown up--  From a girl to a woman in matter of moments --thats what great about women --they can be any form u wish them to be in the blink of a eye "
 
                                                      I have been personally witnessing some moments where my sisters just with the snap of finger went from being a silly little girl i knew for years into a woman ready to take her plight to another level --and every time it has been nothing short of amazing watching how a girl steps up to her destined responsibility --most noticeably doing that with ---"that glitter in their eyes "
                                                    I always wondered how does that glitter come in a moment -Maybe this quote which i read few years back answers that (Im still a single guy to exactly pen down the feeling as such of why tht ecstacy happens in a moment for a guy or girl)
.
           " A girl's destiny lies in the person she chooses --A guys destiny begins with his girl "
                                                    
        One Poignant Moment in the summer of  April 2008 ;
                                                    I had attended quite a few weddings along the way till that month --but that month was precisely the time i realised and visualised in reality of how a girl transforms into a responsible woman in a moment --My Sister who i had shared 25 years of life from her beginning took that leap in front of my eyes --Marriages are given huge respect in our part of world moresoever than many places around the world --and i could see why --Girls give that a artistical finesse that noone could imagine with their eyes expressing extraordinary feelings towards people who have meant lot to her in life till that point of time and at the same time showing a air of positive expectancy towards people she would share the rest of her life --I still remember vividly seeing tears and happiness in her eyes when she was about to walk out of "our" house to "her" house ---"That Glitter "in her eyes conveyed hell a lot . I felt "Thats it "She has began her destiny --No more the little girl i knew for 25 years --Often tears are acknowledgement of your true feelings --sumtimes out of happiness you do have tears --i could have written a thousand words in tht single moment of seeing the amazing adaptibility and transformation of a girl .Five years later i still remember vividly that single poignant moment which showed me a phase of life i never knew --Feeling happiness by genuinely seeing someone u love ready to move on to next part of her life happily.

                                                     The plain truth or matter of fact is life is of course surrounded by hell a lot of disappointing moments --some depressing even --but it is such moments when u witness happiness in its true essence do u realise that you struggle for a reason worth struggling for --There is a reason why we are surrounded by woman around us --in the form of sisters-some friends where relationship has been strictly platonic --(and yes strictly it is possible!!! ) give us this happiness to behold for a lifetime --Long time back i remember a frd of mine quoting this in simple terms --

"When you have tears and smile at same time fighting each other to express true happiness--you know you have been part of a unforgettable memory "--Unforgettable memory are what that glitter is all about i suppose .
  
 A few lines about the heroine of this blog --one of my bestest friends -Anu Singh
                                                  Online friendship has given me plenty to cheer about in my life --Some great people i never saw which never mattered  at all --Distance never mattered for years --Mutual Happiness Did! -Anu Singh was one of the best frds any frd could have yearned --both as a supportive friend  and a amazing human being -As a humble  person and unparalled queen of simplicity --MDTE as i used to fondly call her stands in the doorstep of stepping into her destiny with another wonderful person --Wishing you all the best ahead in life and may ur destiny bring happiness to lot,lots other people in this world  as it did to me which no words could convey .
One of the happiest nights draws close with tears and smile visualising that " glitter " soon to be in one of my best mates eyes :):)
( Special Mention  to my sisters Rajeswari Srinivas,Archana Karthikeyan  as their big day memories played a significant part in penning down what i actually wanted )
Cheers
C ya soon .

Facebook Is A Boon Not A Bane !!!

"  If only we realise facebook is just a media to spread happiness and a way to stay in touch with our loved ones who live far away  "
              
                                "I dumped her before she could even think abt tht "--my frd said to me yesterday morning --i quizzed back What ,,When ,How and Why ?--he replied "Just Now --In facebook "--I was like R u Kidding me --In facebook ????--he said yes we had a chat abt couple of status messages i put up after a misunderstanding we had few days back--she showed lot of attitude back and i decided thats that --i unfriended her sending her message that it is all over "

                                  ----This was a conversation  i had about  two people who loved long before they came into facebook and ended it for  a prolonged exchanges of status messages ,It baffled me to believe they  it ended in facebook ,because facebook can be used to bridge so many distant souls that yearn to feel true happiness !!!!

Facebook a Boon alrite
                                        My Schooling got over around 15 years back ---As is case of many of us --our journey begins after school life --we all move in different directions in search of our destiny --This facebook is a boon to people who keep running --we are almost out of touch from most of our close friends --Facebook enables us to keep in touch with all those people --Helps us create  a feeling that we are not completely lost from our dear ones --and all of us are scattered in different parts of the world --My best friends live thousand miles apart --and some of my schoolmates libe in places like America and New Zealand --the probablilty of meeting them is next to zero added most of them have young families ---When i see the pictures of those it makes me feel lot better that atleast i know that they exist far apart but seem so close by Face Book --When something brings you happiness and wonderful memories it should be a boon alrite without question or is it ?

Facebook  is a source of social networking -- was always meant to be so !!

But what really transpires --Plz read on

                                      People seemingly have developed new habits of using(misusing should i say) facebook non stop ---As one of my friends quoted

            "You cant find a single regular visitor to facebook who has not deactivated his account atleast once "(I have done that probably countless times after certain frustrations)

                               *    When u get angry on sumone --Boom there is a status update cursing them

                               *   When two people have misunderstanding --Facebook seems to be the mode to show who is bigger of the two --supposedly of countless silly messages indirectly mentioning each other .
                                *    When people hate certain people /community /group --they use facebook as a source to strengthen their claims --A certain clear example is of the posts i read about Being Atheist -- at the end of day  isnt it just about belief ?--People who believe there is god are Theist people who dont are Atheist --some of my best frds are atheist and im strict God believer ---i find it increasingly difficult to read posts of  one group tryin to show with example that they are righteous than other -
                          "THAT WE EXIST TOGETHER AS FRIENDS ,PARTNERS ,COLLEAGUES DESPITE ALL THIS IS ENOUGH PROOF THAT ALL THIS  IS NOTHING BUT WASTING OUR PRECIOUS TIME ARGUING NEEDLESSLY"

                              * Another Example ---A Group being started in the name of Dhoni Haters and people fighting the hell out of each other using derogatory words against ppl involved and everyone --sumtimes it borders on the level of extreme levels of atrocity --(Im not a avid Dhoni Follower --But just quoting a example of how it is being misused by people to stress personal hatred or anger on sumone they dont like )
  
      
 My Perespective ;
                           I remember aquote

                                            "Life is like a mirror -- If the mirror is a reflection of what you are ---things you do actually show what sort of person you are "

                                              "Facebook will be what you want it to be ---whether you want to look it as a garbage or a beautiful garden of efferevescent flowers is in our hands --If you have a misunderstanding why not talk directly ?--if u have disappointments why not have patience to overcome those moments --if u dislike a person why not it be a individual feeling --why do we need approval of others to strengthen each and every thing we feel right ---Facebook was not created to prove that we are better than others --it is not a source to prove sumbody is inferior or sumbody is superior ---It is not a site which holds a placard which says "Come throw your garbage on me "--The why this endless ,supposedly restless fights to prove who is better than other using facebook ---After all we are already doing that in our day to day life --Egos ,fights ,anger ,explicit language seems to be everywhere in our lives already why include that in facebook  too ?"

                                            Let facebook be a social networking site that is meant to connect people across the world --to share happiness ---to smile for right reasons --to stay in touch with our school mates  who played with us as  kids -to stay in touch with people whom we are far awat -there are not too many ways to know how happy they r other than these kind of networks---to ruin it ot live happily with  it rest in our hands .

( This is strictly my perspective after experiencing both sides of what i have mentioned --i have been part of both sides ---i have misused facebook as a media to vent my frustration on the other hand i have had some amazing magical moments to behold for life --I feel that Facebook could be better used for people to spread  more happiness because it is a great boon for people all around --Anything mentioned that hurts sentiments of certain people is highly regretted as it is not the  purpose of this blog )

Cheers

                            
                           
                             

              
                             

Every Individual's Responsibility Is A Nation's Pride!!!

                             * Outpouring of rage --debates all over media ,Angry outburst --and as soon as time flies all this are just a incident of past ---I feel as much as gutted seeing the barbarious actions by people who could not be categorised as human beings anymore after abusing a tender 5 yr old --There is a survey which has shown that abusing of women of all ages has just increased by the years . Strict Laws ,Stronger punishment all are fine but most of this can be avoided if the basics are put in proper place as a child grows-be it girl or boy --the beginning plays a very significant part in how u develop as a person.

       Along the line just think about the following points  
                             * Not many parents have time to teach girls about the various touches --so that they can differentiate between people trying to misbehave with them --ignorance is one of main issues why such terrible things happen --girls fall prey to such animals just because they dont know enuf --even a 5 yr old can be made aware if we are careful .Kids are so smart these days while so young which is undeniable .
                             * How many students are taught about sex in their young years --Only when u know what is right u could stop the wrong --to make it a hidden fact for years and suddenly expecting a teenage girl to know what it is just because of her age is unfair --and im saying it from growing in a society where the word is strictly prohibited to even utter in our teens .It has not changed for generations though there seems to be slight improvement it just isnt enuf to awaken a society.
                             * How many schools make it compulsory for girls to learn basic protective skills against impending dangers ?Physical training is  important but nowadays its even more important of girls knowing how to protect themselves against impending dangers--Is it not grave enuf already for ppl to empasise on this fact in schools ?
                             * Its very important to sit with growing up children and ask about their doubts and hesitations --Most of them just look for alternatives among themselves and often end up with wrong solutions.I remember my struggles as a growing kid when i had so many doubts but was so scared that i might be seen wrongly .
                             * Its no big secret that the best way to know about a teenage son/daughter is to see to their friends --like minded people often become best friends as per so many psychological analysis .
                             * Debates are out for banning porn videos --I seriously dont believe in this concept ---the more u try to hide something -the more the urge to find what it is ---there are millions of guys here in India and not every one of  us are  rapist --and banning such sites would increase the danger of more mishaps and more illetracy in this regard --its plain ridiculous to blame on such issues when a act of individual responsibility is all needed to arrest this danger --not banning websites --people know what lies in it and people dont live in it all day-again the numbers who are addicted are outnumbered by ones who arent ---seriously it is a lame issue if we are aware of our duties and responsibilities .

                          http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/sunny-leone-john-abraham-on-porn-debate-358223    
                           A very valid point that i saw in NDTV recently --points from Sunny Leone and John Abraham just comply the fact im putting up ---I quote from John "Did rapes existed before porn -yes "and Sunny Leone's point that its just fantasy and entertainment --maybe they have a point --its not for people who think its real--do we perform WWE actions just because we are followers or fans of the sport ? .
                              * I studied in a boys school completely --i studied for 14 years in a same school where there were only boys --despite childish urges ---teenages quests to know about opposite genders --there was not once incident which had slightest of such horrific resemblances --strictly dedicated teachers --strict parents --involvement in academic performances took centrestage --and i have never heard any such remorseless act by people who came out from my school or even  from my location and im talkin abt lakhs of people for prolonged period of time --It applies to so many places in India --Not all people act so remorselessly ---infact the numbers who are responsible by heart outdo such mannerless creatures(I hate to call them human beings).
                              *  I read a placard saying "Dont tell me how to dress --ask your son to behave properly "--I have a problem with lines as such---responsibility is same for both genders ---U cant deny there is no provocation if sumone dresses bit too modern  ---If a girl dresses in a bikini what do u expect a teenage guy to do --close his eyes and go --its hard --responsibility has to be there from  both sides ---Its ok to be modern but to blame it solely on male society is not fair  --there are millions of us who dont act like animals --there is significant need for  taking up responsibility honestly believing there are lot of us who could outdo few of this mindless acts  by such remorseless animals .
                              * Responsibility begins from us --every one of us ---from safeguarding ourselves first --then taking care of our children --trying to teach them whats right and whats wrong --teaching them what they need to know rather than what is just in books ---books dont safeguard our lives against barbarious acts --practical knowledge has to be implemented --for that to be implemented it has to get taught in the right age in right way .
                              * Concealing everything --hiding everything --will eventually lead to fighting against sumthing that has happened --why not be protective --being bit more responsible --being a little more aware --little more clarified on whats right and whats not and what should be done it aint right ---could make our country a better place to live --to expect lakhs of policemen to fight against a country whose populations is in millions is asking virtually for impossible to be possible ,,to fight for few days --hold placards for right things hoping justice will come knocking our doors are all just hoping against hope ,As i said as days go by all this becomes just a incident of past --its like you are using a painkiller to kill pain but what about wound which creates pain ?
                              * Our country our place -our people --to make it a worse place to live or better place to reside is entirely in our hands ---Can we sustain this fight on roads for months ?Can we do it day in day out forgetting about our individual pressures in life -the answer is "No ",The only way to counter this situations or lessen such happenings is by being aware and teaching awareness --by being careful and askin our dear ones to be careful --In simple terms "Just being more responsible "is all it requires to face such adverse situations ,,"Every Individuals Responsibility Is A Nation's pride "!!
           ("I promise to act more  responsibly--this is my place --I Respect women --and Im Not A Rapist --Millions like me arent --people who do this heinous crime dont belong to human race at all --will never be so too )

    " தீராத கவலை பொதிந்த சாதாரண மனித வாழ்க்கை சற்று நீடிப்பினால் என்ன பயன் தரும்? நான் கவலையை ஒழித்தேன். ஆதலால் எப்போதும் வாழ்வேன். ஆதலால் கவலையை விட்டேன். கவலையாலும் பயத்தாலும் மரணமுண்டாகிறது. கவலையும் பயமும் பகைவர். நான் இப்பகைவரை வென்று தீர்த்தேன். ஆதலால் மரணத்தை வென்றேன். நான் அமரன்."

A Mother Is Irreplaceable!!!!

  "I prefer my memories rather than  fanciful dreams --no dream would ever be better than the
     wonderful memories frozen in my mind of the most wonderful human being I ever knew
                                          ------------- My Mother ----------------!

  

                                                   " There are times in life when u feel as if walking with a  wonderful cool breeze  and a lovely little drizzle drops hitting your face --A moment when ur heart feels heavy and light at the same precise moment -- A moment when u feel urself as the  brightest star that is  invisible to the whole world --the brightness will be only for us - to  make us feel better than the previous sad  moment --Such memories are priceless and inevitable in our lives ---for me it has been always been one great person's memory that has driven me far away from my worries --one absolutely irreplaceable ,impeccable queen of my life ---My Mother !".

                                                  This kept ringing my head again and again -What makes a mother so remarkable --she is just another human being right  --- well maybe not !! , There are times when u feel that there is a possibility that  every relation could be half  replaced by sumone --there are wonderful human beings spread across the world  -- brothers  ,sisters  , a  elderly teacher could act as a fatherly figure sometimes ,,,a wonderful girlfriend lost may be replaced by a equally wonderful wife ---but  I could not imagine the same said for a mother --She can never be replaced --10 years and bit have rolled by without my mother and the void she left remains too large for me to even think of half replacing her -recently after falling to serious bout of chicken pox -I could see what really is magnaminous in a mother --with all due respects to all the wonderful people I ever knew and have --there seemed a distinct feeling that she was  incomparable and irreplaceable -- Simply the most unique mother a son could have had .

                A mother is irreplaceable because ----

                                     She gives everything without expecting anything --forever
                                     She smiles a moment before you realise a happiness
                                     She feels the wetness of ur tears before it comes our of ur eye
                                     She forgives u just seeing ur eyes after a mistake
                                     She holds you strongly when whole world is crumbling around u

            and I just want to add one more poignant point from my personal feeling

                "In moments of despair and sadness --when u feel so down --she just comes near u
                  and runs her hand though ur hair holding herself to u ---a magical touch  that kills
                  everything that hurts u - so much so u feel heaven in those moments "
                       
                                                   My love ,admiration,,never ceased ever in life and probably never will  for my mother ever since I called her mother for the first time --but recently I found my respect for her grow even more seeing some unfortunate incidents --the fact that 20 years of my life with her had not a single moment of  any such incident was testimony to how much she should have resisted some tough moments to leave this kind of impression on people who knew her ---Recently I met a old family friend after 20 yrs ---the first thing she said was --Seeing u reminds me of your lovely mother --- I felt happy hearing those words --10 and half years have gone yet the memory of a person remains as fresh as a morning daisy --I felt that is how u should be remembered --that is how mothers are known and remembered in this world and I had the best mother I felt as would every proud son /daughter would feel of their mothers .

                                                 Through Incidents ,Occasions ,People ,Pictures ,Words ,Quotes and  sometimes even when im unwell my admiration for my mother keeps growing and the respect I have for her keeps growing --because if my life has reached this stage it was all of one marvellous person's relentless pursuit to allow me to believe even in direst of situations --that is why she remains the greatest person I ever knew in my life --ever irreplaceable --with respect even just more as life rolls on  --as I see every little kid with his /her mother I just smile seeing them thinking --"there is a good chance that person whom u r holding ur hand now will be the best person of ur life --no matter how long she stays with you --just pray it is for a eternity "

          " If happiness is about everlasting memories --then yes im the happiest person in the world
                                          Courtesy --An Incomparable Mother "

Cheers :)
                                             


                          

Self Realisation!!!!

          " Life as a whole is a jouney to be at peace with urself --everything else matters less"
                           
                                                10 days of relentless attack from a intense chicken pox put through me rigorous self examination at where i stand in life --Questions kept ringing in my head --"Whether all the struggles to satisfy everyone benefitted me in any stead ? Every person in this world wants to leave a legacy that is earmarked atleast to his next generation ---Its good to hope for rosy things - but life is more about  than good hope --the time of self realisation is the most important respect you could give urself --the real journey  of every individual begins there.  In factual and practical acts in life the most important aspect in our lives is will power  which is very important in  the art of self realisation  
       
                         "Your outlook   is a mere reflection of what your will power allows you to be "

                                            Im saying from my own journey --a journey from the past 20 odd  years --the first incident when I was affected badly by a school friend refusing to talk because of a silly fight as expected--the fear of losing that friend gave me sleepless nights --crying on my mom's shoulder in fear of losing that friend --I still remember that day --because that was the day that started my fearful journey --the next day I acted in a way he was happy --everything was fine again --except something I did not notice then --that became a habit -the fear of being the reason for my loved one's tear ,,the fear of losing sumone I love --the fear of hurting unknowingly and knowingly all made me forget "that something "amidst the pursuit to become what somebody wishes and wants --it all had became too habitual yet it hardly prevented the eventuality --people still left as they wished --people still got hurt --the habit remained inefficient unknowingly because the person I was born to be never changed  though the reality never set in --the self realising part was missing for a very very long time.
                                         There was a time when with the exuberance of youth I was part of encouraging events and acts  of friends knowing deep it was wrong yet did nothing than just watching ,,when asked to be part of that I could not --and that led to few more breakups ,uneasy sleepless nights --I always felt sumthing bad coming but never had guts to know how to handle it --because of the fear factor --the fear of losing ppl was bigger than the reality --that is what gave me countless sleepless nights ,,as years rolled --educational life got over --the habit never died --it went on bit into my professional life --"that sumthing kept on lurking around unnoticed for me to take notice "--the beauty of ageing in life is you learn to see in urself--self introspection sets in --the goals to achieve ,,the long road ahead seems a challenge and deep down u know unless u eradicate the obvious flaws in life and for me the biggest flaw was my "fear "factor for losing .

        I remember a old saying

          "If you start running away from your fears --all u will do is start running in the same circle
                                 again and again ---till your time runs out "
                                       
                                         There was a time in the last fortnight when my temperature crossed 105 --and I prayed to my dear life ,god and mom to help me see the morrow --The pain of disease seemed less when I thought "Had I done wht I wanted "and "Am I now what I was destined "--the answer was no --The reason was I haven't yet "Self Realised "--not given enough respect to myself as a person --as much as I had given to people around me ---running after people all life to get noticed when they gave least importance to me as person --forgetting the people who kept running along with me for me to stand and notice -- Probably I never understood the fact "In life you don't waste even a single minute bcoz u never get them back "until recently  --when I woke up the morning after a terrible scary night --I decided that if it was not now --it will be never ---if the seeds are not sown now --then my life will just be a beautifully decorated book with nothing inside it but empty plain papers --it wont mean a damn to anyone and be just a waste of a opportunity given to me to do sumthing -- have to be a good reason to sumone in the future --that is my biggest duty for being in this place ,,in this life -that is how i saw myself always .
                                         I just let go people for good ,,decided to stop things I did without liking ,I just paused to see people who were running with me all along unnoticed --i could see who wanted me to see the next day after a horrendous journey --they were not many --not even handful were left after my self introspection led to lot of unhappy closures of people i kept running all life --"People stay with u for what u r "--and i decided to respect them above all egostic ,selfish people in life whom i had kept running for --i have had enough i said myself --Enough !!
                                        Im gona be 32 by the end of this night --and i have had this habit kill me for the best part of 25 years of my life--Its time i killed that habit --Its time for me to rest the "Fear Factor"--maybe begin sumthing in life with lot, lot less people ,,lot less sleepless nights waits for me in future ---there are times when the feeling of regret makes u go bonkers --self realisation helps us in making sure we don't regret our important decisions --the initial part might be tough but the journey will be sumthing that will give u peace having made them realising the person u were born to be .

                                     Self Realisation --may not give u a picture perfect life
                                                                  may not give friends that world will envy
                                                                  may not give you as the best person that ever existed
                                                                  may never give you your dream life
 
                                   But what it gives u with guarantee is "The Real You "--who would have been missing ever since u knew abt this world --"In the end that is what matters --u exist for a reason and u wont know that until u know about urself --Never change urself for anyone --Never wear a mask to satisfy people around you --Just be urself --the earlier you realise the better for life --after all one short life--lets make it count "
                               ( I feel stronger as a person after my recent plights   ---i don't fear anymore for people leaving me for not being sumone they wished  --neither do i want to do things that i feel is wrong --it doesn't matter anymore whether  i'm born to satisfy everyone in the world --no one can be Omni good in this world--All i want is to "See me through my own eyes first "--rest will take care by itself --All this is wrought out of very strong emotional feelings after a terrible time recently ---I reiterate all this is my perspective as a individual --any sentiments hurt is regretted as i value each and everyone who takes time to read blogs i write )

"Birthdays " --A Day That Gives You Happiness For A Lifetime !!!

      To my sweetest brother Sandeep Sheoron  who celebrates his birthday today --Happy Bday Brother --Luv U loads )

            " Every Birthday is a chance for me to know that im not lonely and  more imporatantly a chance for me to know the people i should never forget in life "
                                          
                                                       How do you show u love sumone truelly ?-How do u show to people you care for them from bottom of heart ? How do you find a opportunity to get a sure forgiveness for a silly mistake?How do you express your respect to sumone who means lot to u ?How do you share your happiness with sumone u know ?---Well im not creating a quiz competetion --but all these has one common simple answer --one simple day to remember --"Birthday" of that particular person--Some might say whats the big deal--"Its just another day "--the truth it just isnt just another day if the person is sumone whom u love truelly or if the person is sumone who loves you dearly --its just not a show off day--it in many ways  a day when ur heart feels like it has got what it deserves albeit be for one day --in many ways a mark of respect for what the other person has been in your life --respect for holding you,,supporting you ,,caring you without any conditions and demands --the one thing love demands is just "love".
                                                        A Sister/brother no matter how old you are waits for your birthday every year to wish you with that childish happiness they first showed you  --a dad waits to feel prouder every year to see his son /daughter has made him proud in the past yr --a mother --well she just gets happier every birthday --and makes sure she is the happiest person in the world for her kid --then comes a friend --friend expects nothing but give you everything they have -- second only to a mother --there is a whole year but a birthday comes just once --reason --to see how special you can make it people you love thereby finding a happy part of you that is revealed in such joyous moments .
                                                      I from my young age got excited to know birthdays of people who came into my life --it became a habit --even people i met very few times i remembered their birthdays clearly ---people whom i loved i never forgetted their birthdays --the joy of life is realising you dont get endless oppourtunities to be part of special moments as and when u wish --the best opportunity comes on this day ----Birthday--Forget it you will regret it for a year sure .
A word or two about my little brother --Bday Bhai :)
                                                      Sandeep Sheoron --the hero of this blog ---one of the inimitable heroes in my life whom i look upon for inspiration --for dogged spirit --for a willpower that woke up many of my sulken days --and a sense of humour that once brightened so many people's life --a die hard spirit that catapulted a ordinary run in the mill guy into sumone inspiring --we look upon great heroes and celebrities  for inspiration --but for me  the people i meet ( many of them --i should say ppl i havent met ,,lolz)are my inspirations ---that i dont read much is my biggest drawback --but i have always loved to interact with people--This guy -the most wonderful person in my life i havent met even after nearly 8 years --the brother who gave me smiles hiding his tears --who fights adversity with a heart that even god envies --the only person who gave shape to my biggest passion --i would have died one day a poorer person knowing i never had a chance to realise my passion but for this humble wonderful brother of mine -Sumone who has been just like a unforgettable dream -every single time you are down that dream makes you feel better --sandeep was ,is and will always be one such in my life -maybe sumone in your day to day life will be same --if only we  paid that bit extra attention to what life has offered us  --you dont need a reason every single time to feel happiness --you meet people for a reason --sumtimes u dont meet people for a reason too --Maybe God's way to test how much you respect the love of that person .
                                                       If u meet sumone by online --u like that sumone as a person just dont give second thoughts of becoming a friend ---i have had number of amazing coincidences of making friends with people i never saw --believe me it is a wonderful experience you should have in life --first time love is unforgettable --but unseen frdship during course of time is even more  unforgettable --Birthdays are extra reason for you to give importance to people who mean sumthing in life --reasons that will make u feel better every single time you remember about that sumone in your life .
                                                      Its just  one single life ---once you cross 25 --you wont have time to celebrate your birthday nor remember the ones of your loved ones ,,money is one big myth that almost defeats everything existing in this world ---Sadly in search of less important factors like money ,fame ,name ,   days like birthdays which symbolises our happy times  have lost their true value --and im no exception although i desperately try to not to be so ,I have celebrated birthdays in rain --in candle light dinner --with 50 friends once singing happy bday --every time im put to test by life these days --i just remember those pleasant days-- in  troubled times when fate seems a born winner my bait to fate to escape its wrath has always been such wonderful memories and it works every single time and im sure it will every single time --you can try if u dont believe :)
                                 "  What Money cant give --What Fame cant give
                                    Sumtimes a simple "Happy Birthday " can !!
    In many ways there is no more meaningful days in any relationships than a birthday --because what you do in one day remains unperturbed for eternity --Remember "it aint just another day "
