CHANGE

Nothing in life is constant. Everything changes. Only constant thing is "CHANGE". Be the change and embrace the change.

Least but Best

Sometimes it is the things we like to do least that end up being the things we do best.
              -I didn't say this.

I Dont Know and Learn

You learn the most when your attitude is "I dont know, I want to know".

Instead of convincing yourself and people that you know everything Be dumb,  think you dont know, know more views, listen more, Argue or fight on valid points and you will learn maximum.

Reminisce

Reminisce but don't expect yourself to get reconsidered.

Childish Matured

"You are never too mature to act like a child..."

--Sneh Shah

In today's life

In today's life
When you are away from your parents.. There are certain materialistic things you buy imaging that you will be using  it with your parent's and other member's ... thinking current life is a temporary one....

After some years....

You realise that same life has become almost permanent and those things you bought are still with you. 

This story repeats. You yearn.

- Saumya Shah

Scenario

"When people tell you about other scenario doesn't mean  they don't understand your's"

-Saumya Shah

Mistakes Make Understand People

Until and unless you yourself don't do mistakes you won't understand other people mistakes

Or

Your mistakes help understand other people

-Saumya Shah

Explanation:
I guess when you do mistakes you know In what condition you did that mistakes,what things made you fail for that moment,what was the pressure at that time. What was the situation ,etc.
So when someone else does a mistake if you don't understand the situation he or she did mistake ,you cannot understand that person.

Apna Paraya

Wo mera apna hai ya hai paraya,
Ye paheli main kabhi na puch paya,
Kabhi hai waqt se na sulje rishte,
Hai kitne khobsoorat ye ulje rishte

- Nilesh Misra

Being Different

"They laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at them because they're all the same."

-Kurt Cobain

Situation

Explaining situation is very important and necessary.  Whosoever that person be, might be your friend, colleague, partner, life partner, parents, etc.

If you are unable to explain the situation and reasons of your act, sooner or later you will face consequences. 

So stay happy and always express yourself, sit together and try to explain the reasons for your act .Be truthful and Keep smiling

Mother Material

You don't need any reason to love your mom.. 

Though if you want to think about it, you would have n number of reasons which you can't even remember most, but there would be some instance or some incident where mom has cared for you even if she herself is not in a condition of taking care.

I would like to share one true short story. 

Everyday, everytime she will be worried about his routine, whether he had his breakfast or had lunch on time or dinner. If he was in a situation where he got emotionally weak,  mom would be the first person consoling you. She sometimes even cry when he was far from her and she gets to know that he is in problem and not able to do anything. 

Recently he met with an accident in different state and had an operation in bangalore, she hadn't talked with him since he was admitted. He was in such a pain before he got operated. Operation went for 3 hrs in night and was in ICU for the whole night. He was wishing if his mom would have been there. He wanted to talk to her and wanted to tell her that mom I need you, mom please come here, mumma I love you. But he couldn't as he was in ICU. Though his Brother and Bhabhi were there for him all time who were his another mother and father. Next morning he woke up and was feeling better. Got a call from dad saying your mom is crying, she didn't sleep whole night thinking what you would be going through. Dad gave phone to mom and she spoke to me "beta how are you". Tears started rolling  from my eyes.  I am good mumma don't worry I said. She told "take care" her voice trembling  and started crying, she could barely utter words, giving back phone to dad.

One year later. 

The situation is that she got operated. Operation was 3hrs. Her operation was major compared to his. In 2-3 hours of time after operation dad called him saying. Beta, mumma wants to talk to you. Dad kept phone near her and she says " Beta.." He asked mumma "how are you?". She was not able to speak. Half unconscious willing to speak but was not able to. Next words she says "take care mera baccha, sleep now, it's already 12".

I just smiled and all memories of bangalore got revived, next second tears started rolling down. She is not well, she is not in condition of taking care of herself, still she s telling me to take care. I was thinking of what material God has created mother.

Simple happy LIFE

Person who is HAPPY is not because Everything is RIGHT in his Life..
He is HAPPY because his Attitude towards Everything in his Life is Right..!!

More than the problem, it's my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.

A beautiful speech by Sundar Pichai - an IIT-MIT Alumnus :
The cockroach theory for self development

At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady.

She started screaming out of fear.

With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach.

Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.

The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group.

Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama.

The waiter rushed forward to their rescue.

In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter.

The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt.

When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.

Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their histrionic behavior?

If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed?

He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos.

It is not the cockroach, but the inability of those people to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach, that disturbed the ladies.

I realized that, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but it's my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me.

It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me.

Lessons learnt from the story:

I understood, I should not react in life.
I should always respond.

The women reacted, whereas the waiter responded.

Reactions are always instinctive whereas responses are always well thought of.

A beautiful way to understand............LIFE.

Stay Happy

Best way to be happy with someone is to learn to be happy alone. That the way  company will be matter of choice and not necessity.

Today is something different

         "Today is something different"

I woke up in morning at same routine time at 7:30am but I felt something different. I don't know what but there was something different.

No sunlight,   breeze touching my hairs,  felt a little more cool compared to other days, Questioning myself I looked towards AC but it was off. Question remained unanswered,  but there was something different happening with me today.

Got ready for office and reached bus stop,looking around for bus, there was no crowd around me, where usually people use stand in queue for their turn, don't know why. feeling strange why am I feeling  different I continued for my office.

I knew there would something different in office as well and there it is,  I was amongst  early coming employees for today from amongst late coming employees.

Continued my work, was going for lunch and one of my colleague with whom I had never gone for lunch before asked me for lunch today,  I anyways go for lunch alone thought, it would be good having lunch with  a company. Had lunch at different place.

Came back after lunch,  continued with my work and don't know when time flew off and  when I realised it was almost 7:30pm,  being Friday almost all had vacated the office. I was thinking what the hell was going on, why am I feeling so different today.

Went back home, had dinner, took a walk around my condo,  came back and went for sleep thinking why was this day different. Why some days are always like this.

Thinking and thinking I finally felt I have answer for this and a sound is helping me in the background. This answer was just behind that sound. Coming more closer. This sound was becoming louder and louder and had started irritating me. Irritation converting into frustration, And suddenly my eyes opened.

An alarm clock was just beeping beside my pillow. Yes it was a nightmare, took a deep breathe, was so curious to know the answer I tried sleeping again in the same position so that I can continue my dream but that answer was no where near me. Almost near to the answer but that question still remained unanswered "Why was today something different"

River Walk

Walking by the road I reached " River walk"  where people usually take a walk, where there is a river flowing beside and people enjoy nature. No noise, no pollution, only soothing sound of leaves, birds, and breeze kissing one's face. Enjoying nature I kept walking. Young couples jogging on the track,  elder people having a quite walk, a blissful couple walking holding a baby, full family playing in the park with their children's, some taking a walk with their dogs, some with their children and some walking alone. Suddenly my phone made a beep sound.

 I received an image of a beautiful baby from my friend, With whom we use to roam around crazily. Being a only girl in the group she was not treated as a girl. We use to play, we use to fight, we use to sing,  dance, we use to go for trips, we use to pull each others legs and what not. It was full on " matargashti ".

A smile came on my face reviving those memories. She use to share each and every thing with us,  about her family, friends, everyone . We were always at precedence for her,  even if she had plan with her room mates, she use to cancel her plans for us. We use to eat and roam around late night and talk crazily on any shit. We use to work together in office, go for lunch together  and play together. It was a world where we made our own world.

Suddenly we got a news that she is getting  married. We were very happy but we're also in a state of ambivalence full of mixed emotions. We were not invited in the marriage being  her male friends and her family being very conserved. There after we met twice or thrice after marriage. And now just received an image of her baby who was just born.

Tears rolling down my eyes, Realised  almost 5 years passed out. Like a neck of woods, a smallest part of one of our friend was born,  but we couldn't meet.  We all had different  priorities now.  We all are so away from each other now.

Time change,  Place change,  People change, Priorities change but memories stay.

Wiping my tears, overcoming acute nostalgia for those days, I took a cab and reached home with all those memories revived. Living again with I, Me and Myself.

Journey

Life is like a Novel. Starts with a Preface i.e. parents and a journey where you are in the present but always curious about the future . You meet new characters who come and go .Some makes you laugh, Some makes you cry , Some make you happy and some sad , Some stay with you forever and some leave you.

But Always Remember

When people walk away from u.....let them go....!Your destiny has never tied you together. Anyone who leaves you....doesn't mean that they are bad. It means that their role in the story of your life is over...

As long as we are persistence in our pursuit of our deepest destiny, we will continue to grow. We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom. It happens in its own time.
