breaking the silence!

Long long time since i keyed in anything here...am breaking the radio silence today...i'll be ready with a new post tomorrow:)

Light your hearts:)

It's Diwali time! It's that time of the year when people like me do annual ritual of cleaning their house;). It's kinda fun (overrated) to see what all junk one has accumulated in the past one year *sigh*...
well, I totally love Diwali... love the rangoli, lakshmi pooja and the diyas that light up peoples heart and homes... oh yes, i love the sweets and namkeen and the joy that we get from sharing the delicacies and gifts...
If i have to pick one thing i don't like abt this festival, then it would be..well it's not something i hate..just that it comes last favo in my diwali ritual lists - you must have guessed it by now that i am not a big fan of crackers and fireworks!

Wishing everu one a happy and prosperous Diwali:).

i need my genie...

Things are going wrong, as they sometimes will
I feel am trudging a road uphill, aginst my will
I know this too shall pass; but wish you were here with me
Just to sit beside me and be silent partner in my struggle
Things are really not the same
And it won't be until I talk to you
I've reallised, how much you mean to me
All i have to say is I miss you:(

where rainbows end...

Last week I was lunching at this pizzeria near my office. After finishing my cheese sandwich and reminding myself about the plan to join a gym to reduce a few stones (in fact I should be reducing a few rocks to get back in shape!) While I was waiting in queue to pay, I was looking at the books in display at the book shoppe across the glass window. Somehow the title “where the rainbows end” caught my attention. After paying up, I walked into that book store and picked the book. It was from Cecilia Ahern, author of one of my fav books – P.S. I Love You. I did not think twice before buying that one(Although I did pray that it should not make me weep like P.S. did…) That night after putting my li’l one to sleep, I thought I will read a few pages. A few pages, I could not put the book down until I read the whole story (it was 5:30am)!!! It’s a beautiful story about two friends who grew up together and then part their ways. Although they cud have been together much before and both of them wanted to be, it was not to be. But still through thick and thin they managed to be friends, all their life… Life is what you make out of it…

Solace in silence?

Today, i was asked to be comfortable in being silent. I don't know if i could disagree more to anything! How can i learn to be comfortable with something i don't like. Or could I? Thinking differently is not a crime and likewise speaking out is not any crime. Only i could tell them so. May be some day, i will know the comfort of silence - until then I want to be the way i feel the way i should be.

What a fine day!

It was just another day. However, was a good one! Was not totally free from tension but like they say, i feel at peace with myself:). Tweeted for the first time:P.

Phew!

I'll never forget this day - am not very sure whose mistake was it..am glad that the biker had his helmet on and no heavy vehicles were passing by that moment... I did not hit him but i was there and was the reason - he was speeding and apparently did not see my car... and when he did and i did too - was too late to avert the disaster... the scars will take a long time to go.........

Speed kills not just the one speeding all those watching too.......

Someone said if nothing changed there wouldn't be any butterflies..

I have always loved change! Moving town to town, changing schools, new friends, new language, new culture and so on. But that was when I was a kid. Lately I have been thinking it would be nice to have an idea what tomorrow will be like and be ready to face the music.... I would like to plead guilty of wanting consistency... and who was to know that i am in for a change so unexpected in my professional life - am told this role change will look good on my c.v. am sure it will! But transition is a painful process - it is like leaving what i am now and moving on to be a new me... i don't how far i have to continue my journey to be that butterfly and is it really what i want to be?

Do you care?

I don't know what exactly am i doing here ...but do you really care? These days every single person i know is into blogging. You can say am intrigued - yeah! Honestly, haven't even read many(read it as any) except my kid sister's who kinda read her posts out to me. so wonder any one will care to read mine. I'll be back with another one once i figure it out how to fit in here.
Take care,
Roupa
