Little Good things and a huge smile


Though its not a comprehensive list,  I must have missed out on so many of the little good things which keeps our life going and makes us smile.. here are a few from my life...

 - Dark chocolates - bar or truffles, ravened down by me in hardly 5 mins .
 - Shot of coffee(xpresso or cappuccino)
 - Shopping spree without any reason
 - Surprise gifts for my loved ones without any occasion
 - Cleaning up the study table drawer - treasure hunt in a way
 - Listening to Linkin Park, Sufi, Trance and music which has a soothing effect and uplifts the mood
 - Gossiping with friends about anything under the sun
 - The unplanned visit to the market with friends
 - Cribbing for caramel popcorn and missing the beginning of a movie
 - Enjoying the comical satire of few friends.
 - Observing people and professors, and enjoying their antics.
 - Experimenting with my hairstyles which are at times weird,yet that doesn't deter me from doing so.
 - Reading a book with a cuppa coffee
 - The intoxicating fragrance of wet Earth after rains
 - Making paper boats and sailing them in the puddle
 - Confidence that I am doing something right.
 - Calling/texting a friend at 4am and chatting away for hours
 - Sunlight on the face on a winter morning
 - The shade of a series of tall bushy trees on both sides of a road.
 - The jubilant feeling when I prove someone wrong by performing. 
 - Meeting my own expectations.

Yatrigan kripya dhyan dein..

“yatrigan kripya dhyan dein Nagpur se chalkar  Hazrat Nizamuddin jane wali gaadi sankhya 12345 always late express apne nirdharit samay se 3 ghante ki deri se chal rahi hai.. aapko hui asuvidha ke liye hume khed hai”  With that my wish of reaching home on time went down the drain. With few hours in my hand, I thought of finishing up the novel which I had but thanks to our “suvidha janak” railway stations, I was left wondering about the various “asuvidhas” which were around me. I don’t have any intentions of going to the jail hence no rants about any particular “educated” minister although I can do a phD thesis on the efficiency of these inefficient ministers and their ministries. These are just the observations which I made which spending those bloody 3.5 hours at the station on a sultry and oppressive afternoon.

People with whom you are dealing with will have a hard time in the face of your  incredulity, they won't be disputed to rise to your level of expectations. Over the years, I've learnt one thing. O ne should prefer concentrating on the goodwill of mortals who are doing work with you. No matter what you do, where you go, you are bound to encounter those handful of people who will try their very best to disappoint to you but eventually you'll understand that is their sole purpose of life. One thing, which I've understood during PG course is the importance of an open mind and an open heart but that just increases the vulnerability.  Maybe, one should give others a chance to live up to our trust and others should not be on a hunt to try to cultivate trust in spite of knowing...

Between odds and the ones!

It's odd how those who were complete strangers are the ones who are now the best buddies It's odd how those who never expressed their feelings while they were together are the ones who end up becoming a couple It's odd how those who show me the highest love  are the ones who expresses it the least in words It's odd how those who express the love in words  are the ones who end up hurting the most It's odd how those who botched up every damn thing are the ones who make you feel chagrined It's odd how those who plead for mercy, pardon are the ones who deserve it the least It's odd how those who are always smiling and make you smile are the ones who have overcome many griefs It's odd how those who have been through many griefs/heartbreaks are the ones who can always overcome the pain Probably, It's odd because everything can be related to time and space.. But for me, It's odd because I don't think its odd!(o...
