Todna toote hua dil ka bura hota hai…………



Yes! Finally summer has come and I can feel the warmth and brightness all-round. Adventurous people are shedding cloths and me my thoughts, at last, by deciding to come out of my cocoon……………. And the credit goes to, who else but Dagny, yes dear it’s you and your blogs, which had been touching me right there, deep inside. Thanks to you, for churning my emotions and thoughts, the out-come of which is this blog. It’s my first sincere attempt to pen down in public, though writing a dairy is a ritual. Many times I had the urge to write, but then on second thought, wondered why and what’s the necessity. But, now I believe that it does hold some meaning. Thus this sequel to Dag’s blog, Koi jab tumhara hriday tod de………. Link of which is provided below.



It’s a bright summer morning. Ujjwala had just finished her morning household marathon and decided to relax while sipping a mongo drink when the phone rang. She looked at the coo-coo clock it’s 10 past 10 a.m, who could it be and why is it that she is having this sinking feeling. She felt a sudden acceleration in her heart rate as well….. she picked up the phone “Hello! Ujjwala speaking” As the person on the other end spoke one could clearly read her facial expressions and the emotions changing from pleasant surprise to disbelief and then into shock and finally the emotions gave way to tears…….. she said bye and hanged the phone and sank in the couch hiding her face in her hand.
The call was from her childhood friend, Amita, they had not spoken since last 6yrs, not that they didn’t wanted to, it was just that they both were busy with their own life. Amita persuading her career and Ujjwala, deciding to start a family. The last time they met, was on Ujjwala’s wedding day. Amita seemed happy and content. Every minute she would flash a million dollar smile that would melt everyone’s heart. It wasn’t that she didn’t have any problem/worry on earth but she wouldn’t display it. She, would rather brush all her sorrows under the carpet and lead a happy life. The only person who knew what’s behind that smile was her friend Ujjwala to whom she would always pour her heart out. It was not that Ujjwala was some kind of agony aunt to Amita. They had shared so many happy moments together laughing on silly jokes, checking out new restaurants, movies etc. But this was last thing that Ujjawala wanted to hear form her. The rest of the day she couldn’t concentrate on her work, she found herself constantly thinking about her. Finally at the end of the while retiring to bed she sat down to shoot a letter her way.

Dear Amita,

It was a pleasant surprise to hear your sweet voice after almost 6yrs. But, soon the pleasant surprise was taken away by the harsh reality of life. You reminded me of those days when I took the decision to say NO to my then fiancé. It was the most difficult and harsh decision which I had taken till date as you know, how difficult it is for me to say that word. But you had given me the courage to stand by my decision and to read between the lines and call a spade a spade. “How can we allow anyone to rule over us and treat us like door mats and puppets” That used to be your punch line then. Though I have never said you this, as there was no need to do so, then, but today I would like to thank you for providing me the strength and courage (though not directly) to say that two letter word and break off and a start afresh. Had it not been because of your harsh and realistic views about life, I would still had been leading an unworthy life. You, might be wondering why, am I digging the past and reliving it again. Well, there is a need, if only you can see it, as, I found you to be not in your true self. The Amita whom I knew all these years, seem to me, has lost her sight of life due to the moisture in her eyes. After all 15 yrs is not a short span of time. Especially when a relationship which has been surviving on the very stones called trust and faith and that very stone is shaken to the core by an intruder. There is least that any one can do ……..

Always remember, every person who comes into our life does so with a purpose/reason and that relation last until the reason is fulfilled.

Ours is a relation without any reason.

Ujjwala

Hi! Friends, 

It has been long since I last made you laugh. So here I am once again to help you relax in case you are stressed up. My dear friend has sent this to me today morning to make my day. 


10 REASONS TO WORK NAKED

1. Your boss is always yelling,
"I wanna see your ass in here by 8:00!"

2. Can take advantage of computer monitor
radiation to work on your tan.

3. "I'd love to chip in,
but I left my wallet in my pants."

4. To stop those creepy guys in marketing
from looking down your blouse.

5. You want to see if it's like the dream.

6. With a little help from Muzak you can add
"Exotic Dancer" to your exaggerated resume.

7. People stop stealing your pens
after they've seen where you keep them.

8. Diverts attention from the fact
that you also came to work drunk.

9. Gives "bad hair day" a whole new meaning.

10. No one steals your chair.



P.s:  My sincer apologies to moral police of Fropper. In case it sounds vulgar to you.

Just now happen to speak to a friend who wanna go to sleep, so though of this species called Idiot , which I believe will do the needful or else she would get charged up and die laughing. Every now and then we came across this species, here is what a friend of mine forwarded me .

IDIOTS AT WORK

I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when
the clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the
back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not
complete the transaction unless the card was signed. When
I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare
the signature on the credit card with the signature I just signed
on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She
carefully compared that signature to the one I signed on the
receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.


IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call
the local township administrative office to request the removal
of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: many deer
were being hit by cars and he no longer wanted them to cross there.

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE

My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She
asked the individual behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He
said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.

IDIOT SIGHTINGS

Idiot Sighting #1:

I was at the airport, checking in at the gate, when the airport
employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage
without your knowledge?" I said, "If it was without my knowledge,
how would I know?" He smiled and nodded knowingly,
"That's why we ask."

Idiot Sighting #2:

The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it is safe to cross the
street. I was crossing with an intellectually challenged co-worker
of mine, when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I
explained that it signals to blind people when the light is red.
She responded, appalled, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?"

Idiot Sighting #3:

At a good-bye lunch for an old and dear coworker who is leaving
the company due to downsizing," our manager spoke up and
said, "this is fun. We should have lunch like this more often."
Not another word was spoken. We just looked at each other
like deer staring into the headlights of an approaching truck.

Idiot Sighting #4:

I worked with an Individual who plugged her power strip back
into itself and for the life of her could not understand why her
system would not turn on.

Idiot Sighting #5:

When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership
to pick up our car, we were told that the keys had been accidentally
locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic
working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched
from the passenger's side, I instinctively tried the door handle
and discovered it was open. "Hey," I announced to the
technician, "It's open!" "I know," answered the young man.
-"I already got that side."

My School friend had shared this with me. I agree and believe in every word of it yet many times have failed to implement it, especially the last one. I still repent having failed to let know  my dad how much I loved him while he was alive.  Thus thought of sharing this with you all, so that  it may be of some use to some out here and may be a few of them will implement it and not repent like me later..........

The following three-word phrases can enrich every relationship. These are just three little BUT VERY POWERFUL words!!!

I'll Be There
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a sick child to hospital, or when your car has broken down some miles from home, you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase “I’ll be there.” Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we're truly present for other people, important things happen to them & us. We are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at the very core of civility.

I Miss you
Perhaps more marriages could be saved & strengthened if couples simply & sincerely say to each other "I miss you." This powerful affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed, desired & loved. Consider how ecstatic you would feel, if you received an unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of your workday, just to say "I miss you."

I Respect you / I Trust You
Respect and trust is another way of showing love. It conveys the feeling that another person is a true equal. If you talk to your children as if they were adults you will strengthen the bonds & become close friends. This applies to all interpersonal relationships

Maybe you’re Right
This phrase is highly effective in diffusing an argument and restoring frayed emotions. The flip side to "maybe you're right" is the humility of admitting maybe "I'm wrong". Let's face it. When you have a heated argument with someone, all you do is cement the other person's point of view. They, or you, will not change their stance and you run the risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're right" can open the door to further explore the subject, in which you may then have the opportunity to get your view across in a more rational manner?

Please Forgive Me
Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults and failures. A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has been in the wrong, which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.

I Thank You
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take daily courtesies for granted. They are quick to thank their friends for their many expressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.

Count On Me
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential ingredient for true friendship; it is the emotional glue that bonds people. Those that are rich in their relationships tend to be steady and true friends. When troubles come, a good friend is there indicating "you can count on me." So be  beside your friend when he needs you and let him know that he can count on you.

Let Me Help
The best of friends see a need and try to fill it. When they spot a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they pitch in and help.

I Understand You
People become closer and enjoy each other more if they feel the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know in so many little ways that you understand them, is one of the most powerful tools for healing relationship. This applies to any relationship.

Go For It
We are all unique individuals. Don't try to get your friends to conform to your ideals. Support them in pursuing their interests, no matter how weird they seem to you. Everyone has dreams, dreams that are unique to that person only. Support and encourage your friends to follow their dreams. Tell them to "go for it."

I Love you
Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling someone that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs. The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. Your spouse, your children, your friends and you, all need to hear those three little words "I love you." 

I am sure just like me many of you agree and believe in either one or all the above, yet have failed do implement it. So, I would request you to go for it without wasting a single minute as time an tide waits for none.

Three handsome male dogs are walking down the street when they see a beautiful, enticing, female Poodle. The three male dogs fall all over themselves in an effort to be the one to reach her first, but end up arriving in front of her at the same time. The males are speechless before her beauty, slobbering on themselves and hoping for just a glance from her in return.
Aware of her charms and her obvious effect on the three suitors, she decides to be kind and tells them “The first one who can use the words “liver” and “cheese” together in an imaginative, intelligent sentence can go out with me.”
The sturdy, muscular black Lab speaks up quickly and says “I love liver and cheese.”
“Oh, how childish,” said the Poodle. “That shows no imagination or intelligence whatsoever.”
She turned to the tall, shiny Golden Retriever and said “How well can you do?”
“Ummmm...I HATE liver and cheese,” blurts the Golden Retriever.
“My, my,” said the Poodle. “I guess it’s hopeless. That’s just as dumb as the Lab’s sentence.”
She then turns to the last of the three dogs and says, “How about you, little guy?”
The last of the three, tiny in stature but big in fame and finesse, is the Taco Bell chihuahua. He gives her a smile, a sly wink, turns to the Golden Retriever and the Lab and says...
“Liver alone. Cheese mine.”

Friends, Lets begin this week with a gud laugh. I am sure most of my male and female friends will relate to it in the same way as I do........................ no lies pls



One afternoon a man came home from work to find total mayhem in his house. His three children were outside, still in their P.J.'s, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers thrown all about the front yard. The door to his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to the house. Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess.
A lamp had been knocked over, and a throw rug was wadded against one wall. In the front room the TV was blaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, Breakfast food was spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand lay piled up by the back door.
He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and other piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried that she might be ill, or worse!!
He found her lounging into the bedroom, still in her pajamas, reading a novel.
She smiled, looked up at him and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?"
She again smiled and answered, "you know everyday when you come home from work and ask me what in the world did I do today?"
"Yes", he replied reluctantly.
She answered, "We'll, today I didn't do it!!"

I believe-
that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I believe-
that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I believe-
that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I believe-
that we can do something in an instant that will give us heartache for life.

I believe-
that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I believe-
that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I believe-
that you can keep going long after you can't.

I believe-
that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I believe-
that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe-
that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.

I believe-
that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe-
that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe-
that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I believe-
that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I believe-
that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I believe-
that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

I believe-
that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I believe-
that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe-
that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I believe-
that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

I believe-
that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

I believe-
that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.

I believe-
that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.

I believe-
that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.

I believe-
that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you you will find the strength to help.

I believe-
that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I believe-
that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.

This is nice - finding positive out of every negative - which we
don't  always manage to do. So lets learn to say....


I am thankful...

1. For the husband who snores all night, because he is at home asleep
with me and not with someone else.

2. For my teenage daughter who is complaining about doing dishes,
because that means she is at home & not on the streets.

3. For the taxes that I pay because it means that I am employed.

4. For the mess to clean after a party because it means that I have
been surrounded by friends.

5. For the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have
enough to eat.

6. For my shadow that watches me work because it means I am out in
the sunshine.

7. For a floor that needs mopping, and windows that need cleaning
because it means I have a home.

8. For all the complaining I hear about the government because it
means that we have freedom of speech.

9. For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot
because it means I am capable of walking and that I have been
blessed with
transportation.

10. For the noise I have to bear from my neighbours because it means
that I can hear.

11. For the pile of laundry and ironing because it means I have
clothes to wear.

12. For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it
means I have been capable of working hard.

13. For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it
means that I am still alive.

AND FINALLY ....... for the scraps, msgs and e-mails because it means I have
friends who think about me.

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.

Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.

When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,
"Richness, can you take me with you?"
Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."

Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"
"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."
"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"

Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.

Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed to the elder,

Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?"
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is." 

So don't waste time to acknowledging your love towrds someone if you truly love that person and cherrish the time you are together.
