AM HAPPY - AM HAPPY

That's what Akshay Kumar said in the movie "SINGH IS KING". Truely so, just like his name Happy Singh, his portrayal of the character he was inacting truely deserved to be named so. Kindness, Unjealous, Unselfish and what not.. on top of that he was Clever and Quick witted.

We people in general have these other qualities of being Intelligent, Charismatic but what about the primary ones?

To me, without having hold of these ones, we are never going to be Happy by heart. We people are turning into Robots. Too materialistic. Forgetting Mankind. All are running after money, trying to out smart our competitor in this mad race of reaching the top.

It's good to be a competitor but we need to know our limits to push through. Afterall, we have this small span of time to be in this world. If their is any reincarnation logic, its a different thing. What we need to do is how do we utilize our timespan. We just need to tweak our Area of Interest a bit. Instead of running after money, we must run after our area of work. Instead of spending time in front of a idiot box or monitor, we must spend some time with our friends and family.

Sachin Tendulkar mentioned in an article about the JOY of GIVING and how he helped a girl by giving her some money more than she wanted while she was selling Indian Flag on street side.

This small gestures can make your life simple and will have a smile on your face. You truely deserve that and you should strive your energy to get that moments in your life.

Amazing Dream

Hey all,

Its been long since I wrote something. Here I am again with another of my blog.

It was long time back.. probably.. around 2 yrs back to this date.. I had quit Satyam.. my First Company.. and was on vacation just before I am gonna join my present company Sonata..

I was in my Maternal Uncle's place..

Days were passing by.. suddenly... this incident happened.. an amazing dream.. which till date brings a smile to my face...

I am in a room with dim lights.. the walls are filled with big fine arts ... their is a big LCD television in front of one of the walls... surround sound system.. and guess what was playing in that... a romantic.. erotic song...

There is a couch facing the television.. and I see myself well built.. don't know how the hell that happened... and am laying bare chest... on the lap on a person... she is in her night suit... a silky pink dress... right till her knee... she was fondling with my hair with her right hand.. and I was holding her left hand... she is a beauty... absolutely stunning...

My sub-conscious mind was telling me that you dumb.. its just a dream... but I wanted it to be real... I prayed to God.. it to be real..

She said.. honey.. we have to leave now.. and I just looked at her face... I could feel her breath.. asked.. "Kahan chalna hai?" ("where we going"?)

She said.. "chalo to sahi.."..("lets go first")

Next second.. I see myself in a limousine... she gets out of the car.. I see camera flashes all around.. amazed whats happening around.. I too get out.. she holds my hand.. and we walk slowly.. amazed by the attention am getting.. I feel good.. but nervous.. I am in a Black Suit.. looking completely different.. handsome... She is in a red outfit.. the dress complementing her figure.. I wished this dream should go on and on..

Suddenly a bunch of reporters arrive.. and ask her whats going on between us.. to which she replies confidently.. I am her man of dreams.. and that we both are dating.. I see a shock in their faces.. almost identical to that in mine..

She smiles and gives a positive node to me... I smile back.. and we both start walking... I see a candle lit table well placed in the middle of no where... no one is there.. and on reaching a bit closer.. I hear romantic music being played somewhere.. loads of delicious items.. already placed on our table... with 2 glasses of Champagne... I pull her chair.. and make her sit.. i sit opposite to her .. raise my champagne glass.. and say.. "I Love You". She raises her glass and says.. "Me too"

We have our food.. with loads of chit chat.. giggling.. she is so funny.. and so am I... After that.. I tell her to come with me to my place.. She nodes her head positively..

Next Scene.. I am at my place.. with her.. opening the door to my apartment.. not knowing what will happen next...

Suddenly.. I hear a voice.. "Wake Up Bidesh.. its 10 AM".. and my dream goes hazzy... I start cursing myself.. WTF.. no please no... let this continue... but its gone...

I wake up feeling frustrated.. but after sometime.. I just remember what an amazing dream that was.. and smile...

The Girl was Aishwarya Rai...

GAS - from FART to COOK

Last night I was watching few videos in YouTube from funny man stand up comedian Mr. Jeff Dunham; the beloved Achmed, The Dead Terrorist and Walter.

A little intro about the character in case you want to know...

Achmed is the skeletal corpse of an incompetent sucide bomber. His favourite quote "Silence... I Kill You".

Walter is a retired, grumpy old man with arms always crossed in discontent. He has a brash, negative and often sarcastic view on today's world. His favourite line "don't give a damn".

A must watch videos for those who want to keep their laughter bones in action.

There was a sequence in which Achmed says he is scared of Walter's Fart more than Gasoline which lit him up and he died.

Strangely, I had a weird dream early morning in which I saw myself sitting in my Friend's house.. Ravi and Anu.. my group's newly married couple. Sadly though, they had to leave me alone for sometime. I was smelling gas and when I went to the their kitchen, I could sense that there was a gas leakage. Probably, Anu forgot to close off the gas valve.

To my surprise I saw a spark near the valve. I got scared and tried my best to put that off but to no effect. I started calling my parents. That was another surprise considering how come they were at their place?? Huhhhhh....

Anyways... nothing helped.. and me and my family got exploded in flames. I was so shocked and disturbed... considering it was a morning dream.. I was even more tensed...

In the morning I called up my mom and told her everything.. to my surprise.. my mom said that there indeed was an incident last night somewhere in Delhi where two ladies were burnt alive...

Shock after Shock...

Probably there is no point in writing this blog.. but I just wanted to keep a note of what happened.
Along with that, here are few Do's and Dont's to all those reading my blog in case you come across a Gas Leakage..

Dont's :

1> Do NOT use switches for ventilation. Do not switch on fans, ventilators or lamps. Switches do generate electric sparks and it will act as if you put fire to the gas using a lighter.

2> Do NOT switch-off anything as well. The sparks are even more when a circuit breaks. Leave all electric things in the house as they are.

3> Do not try lighting a match-stick in order to confirm whether it is actually a gas leakage or not

Do's :

1> If you can feel (noise or flow) the gas is still leaking, try closing the valves and see if leakage stopped.

2> If you are not sure. REMOVE all connections from the gas cylinder/canister. The cylinder is safe by itself when nothing is connected to it.

3> Open the doors and windows to let fresh air in.

4> Always keep Fire Department's and Gas Supplier's phone no. so that in case of emergency you dont have to search for it.

Girl Psychology

Its a topic I have been dying to write for a long long time. Now people might wonder and ask Bidesh you haven't been in a relationship in your whole life till date, what the hell you know?

Humm..answering to that I just know. You don't have to be a genius. I have not been lucky being with a girl.. but 26 yrs of experience is quite long to just get your perceptions out. Not that I have not liked anyone. I have my share of long list of crushes. Leaving that aside lets move on to the topic.

Psychology is a Greek originated word and basically means studying of mind. (in a nutshell.. courtesy ..Wikipedia).. pretty simple isn't it... but the Prefix Girl to it.. makes it all the way complex..

You will never ever get to know what a girl wants from you. We men are brought to this world to be as confused as when we were born..laying naked ..wondering where the hell am I and why are people looking at me like that...

Few of the common wanting from girls are.. smart, tall, handsome... but girls.. its not just about u all... if you think you are born intelligent...so are we.. we desire beautiful charming girls... so lets please compromise.. you know it and we know it.. not all guys are to your wanting.. and neither is ours...

Next thing comes to my mind is.. Strength, Body, Piercing.. etc etc.. hello are you OK?? We people can work out and try to build up... but what happens to you girls.. once you get your someone... u tend to get overweight... you expect something.. so you should promise to be that something....

One thing which is common to both.. is Love.. both the parties need it to the fullest... if the Venus is dieing for pampering.. Mars is looking for that loving SMS in the morning...

Conclusion: Love can be the only way we men will be able to study and understand her mind..As long as this magic exists between the 2, other things doesn't matter much.. after all.. world is made on compromises... so sab chalta hai...

STAY HUNGRY STAY FOOLISH

Its Thrusday afternoon 12:15 PM in UK. I am sitting on my chair staring what to do next. I have already finished my work for the week yesterday evening itself. Guess, I have turned into a workaholic and am slowing turning myself to a ROBOT after coming down to UK (so called Onsite).

I used to love my idle time down in India doing nothing. But things have changed. Now, I can't sit idle in office. I need something to stare @ my monitor. Be it work or Internet sites. Anyways, leaving that aside, while going thru my friend list in gtalk, a friend of mine, Shashank Sahay, had this caption "STAY HUNGRY STAY FOOLISH". I asked him about what does that mean and its whereabouts which leaded me to Google Devta and to the results.

Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, while addressing to a batch of newly passouts from Stanford University told 3 stories from his life which got me amazed.

1. Connecting the Dots
2. Love and Loss
3. Death

These 3 stories clearly depicts that we are born for a reason. We just need time and patience to get to our answers for existence. Most of us are unaware of what we want from life, atleast I am.
We are living our monotonous life day in day out. But I wonder, there is some conscience inside which tells me everyday, I need something different. What? I don't know. But this is definitely not what I want.

I just have to be patient, look for for the What. And once I got to know, I just have to follow it whatever be the circumstances.

God has given this ultimate life and wisdom to make decissions to make a better today and not better tomorrow. I just have to forget about planning for tomorrow and screwing up my today.

I want to start living with the moment.

Negative, Positive and Hope

Today, I came up with a line I told to my Manager. I said to him "It's good to be Negative rather than being Positive and giving false Hope". This line just came out instantly out of no where from inside when we were chit chatting on the project deadline.

What wonders me still is how effective this line is in our lives. People always talks of having positive attitude towards life. But, what I think is a bit of Negativity will do no harm. It will always give you a reality check and will keep you in a frame to achieve the nearest and best possible goal.

Sometimes, we tend to pressurize ourselves with unrealistic achievements. This tends to stress,pressure and even mental instability. So, rather than trying to reach a blurred target with your positivity and false hope just have an X% negative thinking.

On New Year's Eve

As the dawn of another day starts, my mind wonders what difference does it make to my life? Hold On, its 1st Jan, a new year has begun.

So??

Well after the joys and despairs shared by us last year, isn't it time to welcome a new year? Have I ever wondered where we will stand this year? Have I at least given a thought on the upcoming surprises in store in the ever so changing lives of ours?

The answer is "NO, I have not". And why should I and others do it? Right now my mind is just revolving around the pain caused by Global Recession, the fear of War with Pakistan, the Mumbai Tragedy, millions of Job Loss, thousands losing fortunes in Global Market. The list of problems faced by us in 2K8 can go on and on. Why should I ever consider 2K9 to be different?

At this very moment, my Heart says "HOPE is the word you are searching for my dear". A single word can transform my thought process and will make me look the world with a different angle. I do want to follow my heart. I want to wake up and think Positive. Think the World will rise with this dawn to a new year, which has loads of hidden treasure, I and others need to explore.
