a tuesday thought...

"sometimes, im walking on a rainbow all safe and secure and yet suddenly i find a gust of wind hitting me with memories of the storm that has long passed by...

and as my tear brimmed eyes helplessly notice the splinters of my broken soul still flying in the air, i wonder why i cant enjoy the journey even amidst the clouds----is it because the storm which preceeded it was wayy too strong or is it that the rainbow i am walking on is wayy too weak!!"

sometimes....

its funny how things are so comfortable when simple..wonder how and when life changes without any warning...
sometimes, complications set in even if we promise to keep them away..
sometimes time makes relationships grow weaker instead of making them grow stronger...
sometimes we have to rely on 'life archives' to get us smiling...
sometimes expectations raise their ugly heads and ruin things for ever...
sometimes life melts down the tough exterior we put up to the world, baring our souls to that one special someone and things dont remain the same anymore...
sometimes we wonder how we could give in so easily...
sometimes the toughest of hearts fail to resist...
sometimes the most stubborn mind refuses to understand...
and then thanks to the conflict, there arises a new complication!!

really, some things are best when kept simple!
but most often, realisations come hand in hand only with complications....

a simple life does not introspect...
a simple life does not realise...
a simple life does not learn...
a simple life though uncomplicated, is a life in vain---cos u can never get about realising how 'strong' you actually are!! :)

the haunting melody rules my mind again....

"Kahin kahin se har chehra
Tum jaisa lagta hai
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai, aisa lagta hai

Aisa bhi ek rang hai,
Aisa bhi ek rang hai
Jo karta hai baatein bhi
Jo bhi isko pehn le
Voh apna sa lagta hai
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai
Kahin kahin se har chehra
Tum jaisa lagta hai
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai, aisa lagta hai


Aur to sab kuch theek hai lekin
Kabhi kabhi yunhi chalta phirta shaher
Achaanak, achaanak tanha lagta hai
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai
Kahin kahin se har chehra
Tum jaisa lagta hai
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai, aisa lagta hai

Ab bhi yun milte hain humse phool chameli
Jaise inse apna koi
jaise inse apna koi,
Rishta lagta hai....
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai
Kahin kahin se har chehra
Tum jaisa lagta hai
Tumko bhool na paayenge hum
Aisa lagta hai,
aisa lagtaa hain...."

straight from the 'thinking bag'....

something which disrupts your self-respect cannot be treated lightly all the time--because soon enough the 'joke' will not seem funny to you anymore and it will be hell tough convincing people to stop laughing then...

self-humiliation is suicide!!

----pri ('nostalgic moments')

weighing the options....

NOTHING MAKES SENSE!
i know the truth!
yet i believe a lie...

i know a reality!
yet i nurture a dream...

i know there is an end!
yet i wish for a beginning...

i know its stupid!
yet something seems perfect...

hmm...which do u think is better----
slamming the door behind you startling everyone around with the sudden decision that ur leaving?
OR
retracing your steps gradually one at a time till a point where u just dissapear from the scene hoping nobody would notice?
which option would hurt the 'people who matter to me' less?
which option would hurt the 'people for whom i matter' less?
and last but not the least, which option would hurt 'me' less?
and then again, should i be thinking of the hurt it will cause when i know that that is the main reason which makes me want to run back OR should i just run away accepting that it is inevitable?!!


my life is a stage and im that bad actor who has always preferred being in the audience..so why is that all of a sudden, im feeling helpless with the fact that ive just got to sit here doing nothing but watch the drama as it unfolds?

do i walk out of the hall at the risk of being called an attention-seeker or would u please wake me up once the show is over??

wondering??

complete the following and try to restrict it to a maximum of 12 words---

"i wonder..."

cheers!!

the truth about martians and venutians...

WARNING: the below post is written in a sheer state of 'dvd-inspired' lurrveee which is not necessarily true in all cases...so this is just to say we are not to be held responsible for any break-up/arguement/tiff which may occur on reading this post...
because like we all know, this is just the RULE! but u see there are also these rare EXCEPTIONS! ;)




"Girls are taught a lot of stuff growing up. If a guy punches you he likes you. Never try to trim your own bangs and someday you will meet a wonderful guy and get your very own happy ending. Every movie we see, Every story we're told implores us to wait for it, the third act twist, the unexpected declaration of love, the exception to the rule. But sometimes we're so focused on finding our happy ending we don't learn how to read the signs. How to tell from the ones who want us and the ones who don't, the ones who will stay and the ones who will leave. And maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe... it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. Or maybe the happy ending is this, knowing after all the unreturned phone calls, broken-hearts, through the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment you never gave up hope."
---'Gigi' (he's just not that into you)


yeps ive just finished watching 'he's just not that into you' with the girls and we collectively came to a common conclusion that this one did make some sense unlike the cliched lived-happily-ever-after-chickflicks...

some parts in the flick help clear confusion..some help in giving a reality check by interpreting signs which we girls are likely to overlook or misinterpret, being the emotional fools we often tend to be...some point to the light at the end of the tunnel while some just warn us that it (the light u saw) could just be the train heading towards you...
and then there were those which just make u nod your head in agreement..

all in all, i think all 'single' and 'almost-single' and 'so-not-single' venutians must watch this one (in short--all the ladies should watch this one if they havent already) and i bet it'd leave you wishing u'd watched it earlier!!

cheers!


P.S: as for curious martians who are feeling neglected after reading this post, maybe u guys can watch it too...
your feedback is always welcome
psst!! no worries..we wont tell anyone u watch chickflicks..promise! *makes a straight face*

life destiny and everything...

the colours of the pretty rainbow...
the fragrance of the fresh bloomed flowers...
the vastness of the clear blue skies...
the moisture of the pristine morning dew...
the temptation of seductive molten chocolate...
the mystical blur of the heavy fog...
the romance of the moonlit night...
the golden beam of the morning sun...
the scent of the rain drenched earth...
the purity of innocent love...
the understanding of a deep friendship...
the memories of the nostalgic past...
the faith of heartfelt prayers...
the hope of beautiful dreams...
the mystery of the unpredictable future...
the challenge of the stubborn present...

these are the random 'blessings' life is all about!!

and sometimes, just sometimes for a chosen few, its all about fighting that one hard blow of destiny which tries to throw us off our feet only to make us feel sorry for ourselves so that we crumble in self-pity because we are forced to think we are'nt blessed enough...
but probably it is life's way of teaching us that we gotta pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, change that goddamn stuck-up attitude and move on!!


To end on a cheerful note, here's wishing everyone around a very happy holi! :)
