A way to keep in touch....

I have almost come to a realization that there is never going to be a time in my life time when I will be able to stay close and stay with all the people I love, care and want to be with ! True to its words "Better late than never! :-) "

This whole thought process has been disturbing me for a very very long time now!!! With all the failed attempts to find a solution for this, I have come up with my own "solution" yes yes yes it is a custom made one and I think this is the best I can do from my end to make myself feel better... I know I am talking a lot about "I, me, myself"..but can't help....

So if I go back to each of the person I want to keep in touch with  there definitely will be one or more qualities of that person I adore, habits of the person I find interesting or the nature of the person which would attract me ! So anytime I am going to miss someone or wont be able to be there with the person I am just going to pick one of their qualities, habits or nature and try to follow them myself. If you are able to understand this concept well done! if you didn't get it then its OK :-D


Good Luck to ME! With putting my own words to practice :-)

Just a Thought!

Been sick ( cold and fever) for two days now and my craving for homemade RASAM is directly proportional to the downtime of my sickness..... my parents used to place so many dietary restriction on us when we were sick and I  used to wait to break their rules!!! :-D Now I have been acting like an adult and watching over my food intake myself! Under these circumstances a thought crossed my mind......

In-spite of having access to the best food [ What I have understood now!], there was always this unfulfilled desire to be able to buy and eat all the chocolates, ice creams, crunchy snacks and other eatables belonging to this category of food family :-D and now though I have the "ability" to do so I am conscious of having a "balanced" diet filled with the supposedly boring "Fruits & Veggies" :-)..there is a saying in KANNADA.. A person who has tooth does not have the dry nuts and the person who has the dry nuts does not have the tooth for chewing the dry nuts...HOW TRUE!!!

Well well well this was JUST A THOUGHT!

Oh this is how it works ;-)

On a lighter note...

Many a times I have wondered how people can be double faced, indecisive or have drastically changed over a period of time! To some extent, I found an answer to this last weekend....

My brother and I had been to Livermore to visit a temple. I have seen it umpteen times before but this time the name of the temple caught my attention. It is named as "Shiva-Vishu" temple. Wondering what's so special about the name?!?!....hmmm..let me explain. Long long ago it was said that "Shivas" sect and "Vishnavas" sect in India didn't get along well and they both have had their firm beliefs and ideologies that they don't want to compromise on. However, as time has passed somehow the devotees of these two Gods have "changed" a bit and now we get to see so many temples where both the Gods idols are present. Once upon a time, people used to destroy the other Gods temple!!!!

Well, when Gods and their devotees can co-exists and change over a period of time why can't the rest of us ? Do we need to always categorize them as double faced fickle minded people ?? I don't think so....

Will try to let go off the bitterness in me against  people who have changed and  hopefully not feel guilty for being a changed person myself...

Sad Week!

In continuation to my previous blog.... Not complaining about myself rather feeling sad for all the unfortunate things going on with my friends...how easy it is for me to say my friends are happy and doing great ! While the truth is they are also facing some issue or the other... It does make me feel good that I am not the odd one out but at the cost of their unhappiness it is not worth much ....

Anyways the few good things happening are Mr. Officer ( Suresh ) getting married and Mr. Charmer ( Anoop) in the process of getting "Engaged".. but the irony is they soon may start complaining about what  I think is a good thing!! Hope that doesn't happen :-)
