I am water...

After couple of events (I would not like to go in details here :), this thought came to me that everyone's personality can be represented using one or combination of two of the five elements of nature - Fire, Water, Earth, Air or Wind and Sky or Space.


For example, I am water... pure water.


I am pure at core. I can take all that is given to me, good or bad. I keep only those things that can dissolve into me (be it sugar or salt) and throw the rest onto the shore.


If heated, I evaporate and come down soon as rain. I am fertile.


I can take any color, shape or form to gel well with the surroundings.


I keep flowing. If stored temporarily, I generate energy. But, if I am tried to be stored forever, I am a potential danger to many or I am staled.


Drink me, if thirsty. Use me to clean all your shit.

Use me, conserve me. But, please, let me keep flowing!!!

Fill in the gaps...

Life is simple, life is beautiful.
Life is those gaps in between our work, goals, aspirations, friends, family, moods, emotions, mind and heart.

Relationship is filling those gaps in company of someone you like.
Relationship is not depending, burdening, fulfilling, naming, labeling etc..etc. But it is about completing your life.
It is about dancing when happy and hugging when sad.
It is about massaging when tired and forgetting about the whole world for a while. It is about sleeping without dreams.
It is about listening without trying to make sense or judge.
It is about understanding each other without words. And even if we don’t, it is fine. Coz it is not about understanding, it is about caring. Caressing is far more fulfilling than saying “I love you” a million times.
It is about giving without expecting.
It is not about showing but about feeling.
It is about that one look that can bring tears and smile at the same time.
It is about kissing like it is your first kiss and making love like you are doing it for the last time in this life.
It is neither about past, nor future. It is about this one moment when we are together. It is about you and me, and no one else.

Life is simple, life is beautiful and it feels so complete already!!!

Abstract

Well, I feel like writing after so many days and I feel like writing so much.... But as usual, I would try and truncate it as much as I can... so, here we go -

"There is a very fine line dividing a hard worker from a fool. It is the same line that divides a smart worker from a lazy ass!!!"

FUTURE INDIA

I am so happy after looking at the election results... It shows that people of India cant be fooled anymore by some loud voices, false accusations, religious hatred etc etc... Wise people have chosen progress over politics, nationalism over religion and harmony over hatred... and those who find themselves supporting the minority party after the result, are fools and need to look a litl deeper within... because only fools are in minority, always!!!

Today, I remember and want to share the article I wrote before 2004 election (when BJP was in power and India Shining campaign was in full form), about Rahul Gandhi being introduced in the main stream politics by Congress....
=====================================================================
Read through the below article (especially the comments on the article) and then think about it before reading my comments below…

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/573307.cms

What do you say? This is what I have to say…

I have read the article published on 23rd March about Rahul Gandhi joining active politics and its effect on congress. Unfortunately, I have also read comments of people on the topic. I must say I was thoroughly disappointed reading them. I thought times site is a place for intellectuals to interact but I was not able to find even the slightest hint of “intellect” anywhere in that discussion. Infect, it was full of emotions and a lot of crap. I always thought that democracy is not about being rigid but it is about being flexible, it is about freedom. So what, if Rahul is son of Rajivji or grandson of Indiraji? Does this anyway mean that he cannot enter politics? Is politics only reserved for Advanis and Laloos and their sons (or daughters) and grandsons?

Just look at Rahul’s experience (not just in politics but in life). He is well learned, he is young, he has seen the world, he has been a financial consultant and he is an entrepreneur successfully running an IT venture. And above all, he has seen Indian politics (and upcoming of India) better and closer then anyone else (through his father’s eyes – one of the greatest visionaries of India).

I think we (the next generation of India) need to come out of the layer created by BJP (using various gimmicks like DYNASTY POLITICS, PSHEUDO-SECULARISM, HINDUTVA and now using INDIA SHINING). We need to use our own intellect and need to back these younger people like Rahul, Sachin or Navin!

Instead, what are we talking about? INDIA SHINING? Do you really believe in it? What about US? It took them more then two centuries after their independence to use the first phone or to travel in plane or to have light in their homes. Does that mean, whatever they have done before (having telephone) was of no use? It took them more then 100 presidents and governments (both democrats and republicans - yes, all are called congressmen when they are elected) to reach where they are now. And we people expect some magic by some JIN (like BJP) to give us all that in 5 years? Do you really believe in it?

Lets talk about HINDUTVA? Do we really want another GUJARAT to happen allover INDIA? I am a Hindu and a Gujarati and I am ashamed of what happened there and I can never forgive who so ever was behind it. And Secularism, democracy is always based on secularism. Congress has been and it still is a secular party. Today if BJP is talking about secularism, it is just because of votes and nothing else. (You only decide who is psheudo-secular?) They are not dependable at all. Even today, no one knows what happened to the money given by common men for the RAM MANDIR. Can anyone tell me? And what leaders are we talking about? Vajpayeeji (75+) or Advaniji (70+ just waiting for Vajpayeeji to retire so he can be the next PM). What leaders? And what kind of vision can they have for India after 10 years when they are not sure of their own life after 10 years?

I am not saying that congress is “DUDH KA DHULA”. But by promoting Rahul, or Rajesh Pilot’s son or Madhavrao Scindhia’s son, they have shown intent to change. Look at their manifesto, it suggests that they are open to change, that they have learned from their mistakes and they are futuristic.

So friends, please think about it. And forget about what is Congress’s or BJP’s vision for India after 10 years. Have your own vision about where would you like India to be after 10 years and see (before casting your precious vote) who can really fulfill that. If you feel no one is capable, then start doing something on your own. Let us come together to build our own India rather then relying on someone else to do it for us. Lets not blame others, let us do something on our own. Lets GO! Lets do IT!

Future perfect!!!

The other day, I went to my cousin's office and there was his friend, an expert in astrology, looking at his "kundali" and telling him about his life, past, present and future.... I must admit, he knew his subject well and he knew what he was saying... he was good.

So, I kind of got curious and asked him to make my "kundali" and tell me something about me too (and we dont know eachother, we met for the first time)... what he said is reproduced as it is....

"You are born in the wrong era my friend, this is Kalyug, you missed Satyug :)" - lolz, i think exactly the same :))))

"Your Kundli is very complex, I will need lot of time to study it properly coz if all "grahas" work in your favor, it can make you the king of this world but if they dont, you are ruined!!!" - hmmm, scary!!!!!

"This is the worst phase of your life right now, especially till sep 09" - hmm, i thought, if this is the worst period then how would the best period of my life be like??? :)

"But even after sep 09, you will struggle in life... best period of your life is after 18 years" - hmmmmmmmmm...... ohhhhhhhhh..... irony of life :)

I believe him fully and I am ready for my Future Perfect.
