Is pal ki...

'pal' this word has always fascinated me deep inside. Passes as soon as we feel it. As big as a life, as small as a vibe... it is a rainbow of all emotions. You laugh...you cry for a 'pal', at a 'pal'. Whatever but it carries 'something' with it always without an exception. Beads of em all put together gives us an experience. With this life moving on... fast or slow, we are able to capture very few of em. These are precious. Believe me, sometimes
when you are hit, they will fix... You just stand still and enjoy the connection: Is Pal Ki... Us pal se...

Life is too 'unmessy' !

Hey folks
Dint show up for so long... Well, was a thoughtful step not to, while I get my mind on track. Yep, was out of mind... some career issues! Anyways the thing is finally I did it! I mean I am here again clicking down. What made me did that... well; take up a lil background first!!! Life is a too ‘unmessy’: I know this isn't a word. But actually, there is nothing to mess with so unmessy and believe me folks it’s much tougher than the messy one. What is it like... lets see; it’s like the retired youth! Wake up in the morning with a motivation of filling your stomach with your favourite breakfast and and... nothing else. Then have a thorough time with newspaper while getting enriched with Vitamin D, u know what I mean. Then get along with lil cleanup stuff, room, cloths etc. Finally heading for lunch and thereafter... nothing! But I have by far made it interesting while doing Shopping and eating A LOT... with a dipping balance n accelerating health.
Its that point of when you go through your contact list at least twice a day to scroll someone you can talk to, even though its been ages you have seen him/her. Well, so while in the progress of messing of my life, I found a wonderful 'pal' as I say. This is where I picked you up in the start. Nothing big, nothing new, not even special, we see all these around but have forgotten the times when we use to sit n chat there for hours, take our dolls and let them enjoy the ride! Sad while scolded for spilling the glass of milk while fighting with your brother, you let your tears out and same place from where mummy kissed and picked you up... The SWINGS!!! You can’t resist them once you are on them... literally they are the ‘to n fro’/ ‘round n round’/ ‘zumm down the path’ but something makes them special. They make you talk, to let out as if you are a child (again) or can I say they take out the child within you. You can dream, plan, solve or can just ride as per the customisation. While sitting there I could see the changing colours of the environment. It actually happened. Actually there is a time in the evening (today it was 5.35) when there are the most dynamic moments. You close your eyes, and then open you find an entirely different colour. I started with the golden dazzle at 5.35 then a slow blink orangish golden, then a deep yellow followed by yellowish orange. Finally I could see bluish purple. While that was the 'pal' I decided to share. N u know what folks this was the best time invested with this 'unmessed' life. I am pretty sure, will figure something out! Till then enjoy... New Year is heading, almost sitting on the nose :) Have a blast!

The best is yet to be discovered!

A 'pal' with a close friend just reminded me of a thought about relationships. Relationships, consider any mother-son, mother-father, brother-sister or any precious one you are blessed with. I believe, each one of them is absolutely as I say 'de novo': a single specimen of its kind in the universe. Why? because it's the two individuals who make em are unique and so their synergies. Try n put some rules developed from mock relations or so called 'replicas' that actually never exist, may be you work best with them, but you will miss the 'better than the best' simulations.
Experiment! as much as you want. Because, its then, slowly the relationship will dissolve in the original auras of two and will pour. It will fit in the mold -made for each other... or some may call it as per your destiny! n then you will realize the true sense. The real face of relationship is always beautiful. We, many a times or for that matter 'generally' make it so artificial. The thumb rule believe me is 'Never Compare' coz the best is yet to be discovered by you!
*This was a 'pal' discovered while a morning mind it, 'after-breakfast' walk.

Should I? or Should I not?

Decisions and decision making: tough job for many of us including me. I always use to think I am bad at decision making measured in terms of time and consequences. Although mainly ‘time’. But I recently learned something very different from what I believed. Sometimes or rather many a times, the process-timing in decision making actually fills the gaps through a deep thought process involved. You rationalise, you debate, you object, you actually discuss the matter with ‘yourSELF’ and here is the focus. Basically decision is generally all about convincing yourself on one side of the situation good enough to overcome the opportunity cost of the other side. So while this convincing is done, you actually clear out various facets and discovers a lot about yourself. Just wait for a moment after you have seriously taken a decision, critical enough, watch yourself and it will tell you many things. Every decision making process leads you towards maturity which is nothing but an art of handling diverse types of situations with ease. Another view to the decision making is about the ‘recency’ i.e how recent and genuine at the same time, you can be. Many people feel, the person who takes fast decisions is at a better-off position. May be at times, but, not always. Its all about the criticality of situation you are into. Consider a decision: to wear a dress in another’s wedding vs. in your wedding vs. a partner for your wedding. It also depends upon a person’s priorities.
Well, finally I believe while taking a decision ‘Be Yourself’… earlier you will be, more will be your decisions synchronised and appropriate. Because you know ACTUALLY what you are. Also, whenever you think you have taken a critical decision by yourself, give some moments ‘pal’ to them and you will see a better assimilation for the next time. As I always say, collection of such ‘pal’ leads to a healthy experience. Enjoy nurturing yourself nearer to self-actualisation every time you pick an opportunity to DECIDE.

The Italian Disaster!

The warm windy day giving me the spells of my Place 'North India---Punjab'. Although there the temperature is near freezing, but even an itsy-bitsy breeze reminded me that its winter time. Whatever but I decided to party (I know, its a technically illogical reason to party: but who cares :)
My taste buds were already set with an invitation from Italy. We three(#410) set for the Italian cuisine. We went to a restaurant nearby(Tamanna). Italian, for my mind clicks for two: pastas or pizzas, rest are still blind to me. Messed up with the details, we could manage to decide on a pasta and an augantine (I guess i am spelling it wrongly). Blessed by the long time line given by the boy, the three stomachs started grueling and the six eyes fixed on the kitchen door. Lil frequent confirmation from chotus were really helpful. After all our chats just to fill gaps, the 'pal' came where our patience paid. A napolitiana pasta...with red sauce...fussili was in front of us. My heart was filled with gestures, could not even wait for my hands to pick n feed. As the fussili moved in,eyes blushed. I could still feel the aroma and the fling that my taste buds were providing. Finally, in no time it was done with. Now the other dish was awaited. To our surprise, the waiter had not taken up the second order, no wonder our mess! We were a food savvy bunch, so decided to give up 45 more minutes out of our lives to taste another wonder. Finally came a dish long awaited...n what...no!!! it looked as 'bimar khana' boiled veg in white sauce! But I was brave enough to give it a first try... OMG all sentiments dashed and it got stuck in the esophagus.
Anyways... we Indians are born 'JUGARIS', n of course born Chefs. Took bunch of conventional taste makers, salt pepper, vinegar, green chillies and Finally...Ketchup! Mix them all up with the dish... and enjoyed!!!
That is why we(Indians) are 'BORN MANAGERS'... Both 'Jack' and 'sufficiently master' of all trades... ;)

Is Pal ki...

'pal' this word has always fascinated me deep inside. Passes as soon as we feel it. As big as a life, as small as a vibe... it is a rainbow of all emotions. You laugh...you cry for a 'pal', at a 'pal'. Whatever but it carries 'something' with it always without an exception. Beads of em all put together gives us an experience. With this life moving on... fast or slow, we are able to capture very few of em. These are precious. Believe me, sometimes when you are hit, they will fix... You just stand still and enjoy the connection: Is Pal Ki... Us pal se...
This blog is dedicated to all those 'pal'. Teeny-weeny although, they all impact us in a big way inside.
