Love

I am sure that this four letter word is the one about which no human being on this planet has even the remotest idea about. Well I asked myself "Do I know what is LOVE?" and some voice inside me told "YES you know, coz you are in LOVE".
I didn't believe myself (most of the times I dont). The story continued. I did a lot of thinking when I was sitting idle in my home. But that was just thinking at the end of which I concluded that Ill not think about it again. So I didn't.
My professional career kicked off to a great start. I joined the most respected company of India (Infy). First day of my work life was great. Felt great. I thought what else can I ask for?? Days passed by and as always happens with me happiness didn't last long.
I had some expectations from my company (which they themselves had bragged about) but was a huge disappointment. I had a notion that real talent will be appreciated here but as is the case with most of the Indian IT service companies, they dint.
But then I told myself that this is what it is so I have got two options either to leave it or come to terms with it. I chose the later one. I wasn't happy but was satisfied to an extent.
2007 was about to end. I decided to do the most toughest and most important work in my life. Oh I am sorry, I forgot to mention about this girl. I will not describe her much (no database in this world has that much space to accommodate her description, technical issues). Well I guess Ill cut down to the chase, She is my life.
But people have boundaries and restrictions. Family restrictions, restrictions due to caste, due to past and many more reasons.(This reminds me of that Airtel ad, "Barriers break when people talk", cool ad) There are a lot of questions which I want to ask this world but where is this world?? People are busy making their livelihood rather than living their life. All of us should once get out of our usual thinking and just try to live this beautiful life.
I know what it feels like to have someone who loves you so much that not even god does who created LOVE. There is someone for whom I felt the same way. You cannot describe this feeling. Its just there. Humans are still at a very early stage to understand this. But our heart has that ability. And this is the time when restrictions made by humans come in their way. I cannot describe in words how much bad and wrong things has happened due to these restrictions and man made rules. I just hope that our mind also become like our heart and that we can understand the language of our heart.
I know people who read this (a hearty thanks to all of you) will say they have read this before and its just the same old tale. But think for five minutes about it alone and you will come to know what I am trying to say.
You will say what was in it about love. There is nothing about love in this world, this world is itself LOVE. We only need to feel it.
Today its all together a different story for me. I am a changed person. I can understand my feelings and emotions. And I can just hope that others also do.

What if there are no coincidences in life??

OK, before reading further let me tell you that this post may not make any sense. Believe me.
Anyways, since my childhood, wait........ no, since I was a teen I had this feeling that what if when I am going to school was not something which I choose to do but is something which I am supposed to do in my life. What I mean is, what if whatever we do is not what we choose to do but is what we are supposed to do whether we like it or not? What if we are doing what we are doing because there is some force which is making us do that? What if there are no coincidences in life? What if I am not asking these questions because its my choice but because there is someone who wants me to ask this question?

I am sure that many people are out there who have similar questions about life but are either too afraid to ask them or simply don't care about them. But they do ask themselves the same questions but find no answer. Few days ago I was walking down the street and just when I was about to cross the street there was this puppy who got hit by a car. It was injured and was rushed to the hospital by the driver of the car who hit it. The next day I read in the newspapers about a freak accident in which a car was smashed by a train in which the driver and his pet dog were killed. The papers said that the driver was in a hurry and tried to break the signal. Freaking story, right? Too good that I made it up. :)

But consider this, what if I was meant to make this story up and post it hear and someone reads it here and from this day on drives carefully? What if I saved a few lives? Thank you.

What a load of crap that was. Man-O-Man, I am on fire.

Frankly Speaking

Hi!! Well, I thought a lot, or at least I tried, about what should my first post be. In vain. As usual. After the most tiring thinking of my lifetime, which was, by the way, of about five minutes, I came to the conclusion that I should tell you guys why I decided to blog. So here it goes. Well frankly, even I don't know. Maybe because my friends had one or maybe I had nothing better to do at that time but the truth is I HAVE NO IDEA. Confused? Me too.

Now I must warn the reader, frankly I don't care, to read this at their own risk. The side effects of reading this blog maybe amnesia, nauseous feeling, and other similar dangerous diseases. Honestly, you are not going to remember reading this the moment you complete reading it. But if u you do read it, a big THANKS to you. You are responsible for your own mistakes.

The reader must have gathered by now that I am not a kind of person who knows why he created this blog. You cannot be more correct.

All the best and DON'T PANIC. (and please be patient for meaningful posts)
