Breaking of the Dawn

There are days you wish never dawned... There are some days which you wish you shouldn’t have seen the light of...some days where you feel that you didn’t deserve the world and the world didn’t deserve you... And there are days that you wish never end... and then again there are those 'mixed' days - days which start just right and you think 'Great! now, THIS is how the perfect day should be... and then things start going a little hay-wire as the day wears on... little pressure here and a bunch of smiles there... some disappointments, some trials, some successes... a cancelled lecture, a witty remark, a confidante heart-to-heart talk, a sudden grin... the day vanishes into the dusky evening and the silent night creeps in...

A brand new day throws open a whole skylight of new dimensions and a fresh way of looking at the world… it gives you another chance of living each moment as if it were your last... of giving yourself a fighting chance to that elusive dream... that deepest, dearest wish in your heart... it's life's way of telling you to throw your inhibitions, your tribulations, your problems behind you and just... LIVE!!!!

Yeah, I guess there ARE some days you wish that just didn't dawn but then as Castaway says it all : There will be a daybreak after the darkest nights... It doesn't matter whether you are a LION or a GAZELLE...When the sun comes up, you better be READY!

Just A Click Away...

One awesome thing about being in 21st century is that with one click of a button you can make a person disappear from your life as if they never ever existed.

Bothersome photos????No problem...Click...and they're gone
Click...and all the chats are gone
Click...and all the pics are in trash

Click...and the phone number is deleted from the cell
Click...and the person doesn't exists in any of your social networks
Click...Click...Click...and its all OVER!

One can almost erase a chapter from one's life by doing this.
But how do we erase memories????
Wish....We Could!

365 Days

Yippie.....Am so happy! Its just that its been 1 awsome year that I have been in this blogging world. I know I am a bit late, rather a month late in posting this. But before posting any new things I would like to wish my Blog a very Happy Birthday!!!

This June I completed one year on my journey in this Blogosphere. Its been hell of a ride. It has given me a perfect platform to pen down  whatever, whenever comes to my mind without any element of ifs and buts!

Blog Hopping is sooo much fun as in the due course I have read so much and appreciate people having a flair to write and express themselves so well. It truly is motivating to come across such a pool of writers each having their own style which is unique in itself.

So with a hope to complete many more years here, I would write back soon as there is lot in store in my kitty :)

Coupla things have kept me occupied but I promise to be more frequent and updated to the best I can.

Wow! such a wonderful feeling posting after so long.

Tying Up The Loose Ends...

I'm not counting down really, but I have about 10 days before everything changes. It's that time again; moving away, starting a new job, making new friends, picking up new life habits. And one always has to ask oneself the question - Am I who I want to be? It's a difficult question to answer. Sometimes we are the person that the situation has dictated. If we move to cold Alaska, maybe we will start doing the things that Alaskans do. But are we doing it because we like doing it or just because we are there? The same is true if we are moving from Pune City. All those nights of going out: Was that because we were in Pune and we had to make the most out of the experience or was it truly something that we enjoyed and will want to do no matter where we go? The same is true of the people we meet. Do we enjoy hanging out with our coworkers or do we prefer meeting people outside work? Those friends we have with whom we only watch movies or only go bowling - Are they any better friends than the ones we go to dinner with, or have been to our house? Do we wish we got to know them in a deeper sense?

So, not to get too philosophical, but it’s these questions which are popping in my head as of now. I will be a new fish in the big pond. I can choose everything about who I hang out with, what I do with my free time, how much I exercise, the healthy foods I eat, all that jazz. So now it's really the time to decide - Who is it that I want to be? And is that me? Fresh slate!

And in the meantime there's the daunting task of tying up loose ends. Saying goodbye to old friends, and finding closure with the ones that I probably won't keep in touch with. The ones who forgot about us when we were so close, that we don't need to worry about as we move further away. The ones who won't call us on our birthday or Christmas or New Year's. The ones who have always been too busy to write or call back. The ones we just don't have the energy, nor desire, to fight with. The ones who probably don't even know we are moving. Those are the ones we let go!

I'll always be reminded of what my professor once said - Not everyone can sit in your front row (In comparing you and your close relationships to stadium seating). And it's true, as new people come in, there are only selected seats for the front row people. And as hard as it might be to believe, that someone who once held the top spot must now just be another audience member in the aisle. Facts are facts!

So tying up loose ends means moving on from things that aren't positively impacting my life, saying goodbye to bad habits and getting ready to cook more, to eat healthier, to exercise more, read more, write more, do all the things that I've put off because I was so busy(doing nothing). It means meeting people and forming relationships with people that are on same page, heading towards similar goals. Tying up loose ends means getting rid of all of the baggage and throwing away the junk that we don't want to move with, both literally and figuratively speaking.

Like a seed grows to be a plant

We most sow our seeds and wait

For nature to take its time

And allow us to share in its beauty.

So, let's wait to see what happens. And be excited about the future, but first take care of the present and tie up the loose ends!!!!

Randomness

Well it has been a little over a week since I've decided to get offline. Ok, since I actually got offline. I decided a little before then. This has turned into somewhat of a social experiment for me. So far it's been really interesting. The first couple of days were hard because I was really wondering what was going on and wanted to know; but as the days passed I found other ways to spend my time and it's actually pretty liberating. I'm not glued to my lappy for hours or feel the need to check on things so often. I've met up with people [in person] that I hadn't talked to in a while, cleaned up around the place, and not been as stressed out about finding out things the unnatural way.

Most importantly I've found that people who really want to get hold of me will utilize the many other avenues of communication. In some ways I am avoiding certain things but it's nice to have a break; I needed to have a break. I do miss talking to certain people whose main communication was via the internet and I know that I am not responding to messages that I don't even know that I have. So that is a downside, but again I haven't moved, my number hasn't changed, and my email still works.

So I'm finding that I'm getting by and enjoying this simplification. Well it might be complicated in its own ways but as of now it’s just me with myself! Let’s see where this goes. I have so many other alternatives to keep myself occupied: mp3 player or catching flicks on TV. Maybe a book or a puzzle. The possibilities are endless. And I’m loving it!!!
