Picky? Meh...

                                    When, Dishi?

                      What are you looking?

Don't you feel the need of someone?

                              Would i want to wake up to someone who smiles to have me by his side
 Would i want someone to delegate my mundane tasks, so i could do whats priority to me?

                                                              Would i want someone to discuss my not so practical dreams?

                                                                                                                    Of course, Yes. Hell ya!

Now read again,  i emphasize the word "want" not "need" in above sentences.

I can easily meet and take care of my needs(gender equality morcha is too shallow, i m talking of individuality, so shh)

For needs are meant for living,

And

wants are meant for evolving.

I am already living,

I am looking for evolving!

Abb,  evolving mein time to lagta haina, dosto ;)

Toh you see,

when someone makes me feel,

He can take care of my wants,

that would be the time,

I would roar on the mountains,

"Now"!

 

Too demanding? 

Go sue Pepsi and Pan Parag,

who taught the 90's kid in me

Yeh dil mange more and Ek se mera kya hoga. 

Excerpt:

Mujhko kya pata khwaab kaise hote hain
Hum to aaj ko hi khwaab jaise jite hain

Aawara hawa hun main na hath aoongi
Jaoongi jahaan wahaan sabko jhukaoongi
Pagli pagli pagli pagli
Pagli main jhalli

DialogueBaazi

Mummy with mother nature, doing what they do best :giving peace 

પરિચિત: આ સ્મિત થી કેટલાને  ઘાયલ કર્યા છે ?
L2C: વડીલ, મારા સ્મિત કરતાં બોલ(કટાક્ષ વચન) થી ઘાયલ થનારની લાઈન લાંબી છે.

  How many got killed with this smile?

My words kill more people than my smile.

પરિચિત: વિશ્વાસ નથી થતો.
L2C:  ચાલો ઓળખાણ કરાવી દવ :)

I don't believe your say.

Let me introduce you. 
 

પરિચિત: તારે કઈ કામ-ધંધો છે કે નઈ ?
L2C: હૂં જીવન ઉજવાનું કામ કરું છું.

Don't you have any work?

My work is to celebrate life.

પરિચિત: ધાંધા થયા પછી આવી ગમ્મત  સુજે છે, આવુ તોહ બળપણ માં પણ નતુ કર્યુ,
L2C: ગમ્મત ને ઉમર સાથે શું લેવા દેવા, દિલ તોહ બચ્ચાં હૈ જી.

I couldn't think of such silly acts as kid which you do now.

Always child at heart. Fun seeks no age.

When people question your Life Choices more than  
your girlfriend questions the safety of your condom.

પરિચિત: તુ અકેલી અકેલી ફરવા ને જમવા જાય છે?

L2C: હૂં એકલી રહું છું , એકલી શ્વાસ લવ છું ને એકેલીજ સુઈ જવ છું.   

 Oh ! You are traveling and eating at restaurants by yourself? 

I am breathing, sleeping and living by myself too-that's Single Life!. 

  

પરિચિત: પૈસા ને લેહેર I.T. માં જ છે તોહ Biomedical કેમ?
L2C:દરિયા ની લેહરો ગમે, એટલે નારીયેલ વેહચવાનો ધંધો ના કરાઈ।

When IT is cream of crop, why Biomedical ?

Just, because everyone doesnot like cream in their coffee.

પરિચિત: એમજ ત્યાર થઇ? નખરા તોહ એવા કરે છે કે જાણે ફિલ્મની હિરોઈન હોઈ.
L2C: હિરોઈન ના થવ તોહ તમારા જેવા  ક્રિતિક નવરા થઇ જશે.

You just dressed up? You act as a film actress.

Can't afford to leave critics like you, jobless.

પરિચિત: અચ્છા, DSLR કમેરો લઇ શું કરીશ?
L2C: લેસિક કરાયા પછી મારી ચટ્ટાઈ ની રજકણો ને પતરાનુ કાટ જોવામાં તકલીફ પડે છે, એટલે DSLR. 

So, what will you do with DSLR?

Since I had lasik, I think DSLR will help in seeing grains on carpet and rust on metal.

પરિચિત:અમે  B.tech ડિગ્રી પર સારું કમાઈ લઈએ છે , તોહ masters ની જરૂર હતી?
 L2C: ભણતર ની કિંમત જયારે નોટ ની ગાદી માં શોધાય છે ત્યારે જરૂર લાગે છે.

  

We earn decent based on Bachelors, was masters necessary for you?

When people value education based on earning, i do feel education is necessary.

પરિચિત: પાછુ કઈ નવું તુત લાવી, ખરી નવરી છે તું.
L2C: હૂં નવરી નૈ, પણ જીવન જીવી જાણવાની આવડત જરૂર ધરાવું છુ. 

Again! You are such an idle person.

I am not idle but, I do have the aptitude to live an ideal life.

Be-Lie-f's- the Maan-Ya-taa!!

I often come across this crap of so called "belief- maanyataa".
Notice the word belief has lie in it???
Maano ya na maano = Maanyataa. (There I said :), not really!)
Ignorance is bliss but going out with half glass full leaves you more dangerous than a pyscho killer.
For once and all, i will like to sort this out.

NB: Thank you Vinati for the blackout trick.

They say, "A way to a Man's heart is through his stomach (good food)"
what they forgot to tell you in 21st century is " In order to bring that good food on table, you will have to earn it "
So, women out there, follow your passion and chase your dreams.
Rolling pin (belan) will roll anyways, there is a reason it is called rolling ;)

They say, "Love marriage has better chance of survival than arrange marriage or vice-verse"
what they forgot to tell you is "Whether you buy clothes from branded shop or local store, the probability of them shrinking or sustaining color will depend on which cycle you choose to load it in washing machine." [Yes, i am comparing marriages with shopping].
Remember, God never created "Branded" man or woman.
If marriages fail, its solely the responsibility of the individuals involved.

They say, "Manglik  person has fierce energy and will bring disputes/conflicts possibly leading to death"
what they forgot to tell you is, Its the drive "for more"(mang = ask)  and if it was so anuaspicious why would our oldies say "mangalmay ho!"
 Let me tell you a secret, a manglik person has unusual sex drive too.  Now, at-least,  i haven't heard or read, a person died due to having sex :)) If you did, let me know. 
Think of color Red, It is associated to Mars (mangal), people may adore it or fear its boldness; so goes for manglik people. Disputes occur because people by default resist change and discomfort.

Its time for new year. So, lets put end to these crappy beliefs and march for fresh start!
 Happy New Year! May you achieve new heights!

Ek chote se Daftaar ki Naukri hain

This morning a friend of mine called me.
Listening to my tone,
He asked:  Why are you not awake at this hour? Aren't you suppose to go to work?
My answer: No. I do not feel like working today.
Him: Sheepish smile.
My take on it: Life goes on.

I have strongly felt this and i have taken due liberty to choose when to go to work or not in recent year or two. Well, most of the days. Who does not love bread :)
The reason could be as silly as its too early to wake up today, its a busy day at work, its a lazy day at work , its raining, its snowing, its sunny, its windy, or my body is soar, etc...
That's a Risky and Crazy idea?
Sure, ya!
Do i advocate it to others ?
Well, Nope.  Walnuts are healthy they advise. Since, you got your walnut sized brain, use it to your advantage.

Being a part of health care unit, we are advised: If you are sick, stay home. Do not make others sick!
So, why not do so when you are mentally sick? Think of it, when you go unhappy to work, you spread that unhappy vibe around you to fellow colleagues in some way or other.  We all get sick of what we are doing after a time, no matter how much passionate you are doing what you do.
And of course its all about me!
So, i take pride to say i have saved the world by not making them sick :))

My reasoning is listen to your inner self sometimes, if your body is not ready, do not push it.
Ya, ya, i know, Will is difficult to exercise and you can push your body in either direction. But Why?
Its okay, to not work and sleep or gaze at sky. You would never know how a busy work day feels like not working if you never say no. A beautiful sunny day or rainy day would just be an expression unless you go and live it.  With our modern pace, we try to exert so much to an extent of keeping ourselves unhappy and others around us unhappy.  I have seen a lot of my friends working those extra hours for few perks at the cost of family time or a good night sleep.  I guess it works for them. I refuse to give in that rat race of making $$$.  Of course, i have the liberty to do so by god's grace and other times i turn off the logical switch of my walnut and choose to be ignorant :)

How often does world stop when you refuse to put that extra effort for that day?
Yes, it would be little stressful for people you work with to do your share, but hell ya! They will suck it up. Just as you do when they do not show up uncalled for.
And if you give me the shit that it would work against your accountability at work, then my friend, I am so sorry. Those people whom you work for or with, do not know your worth and hence, your time and energy are not worth for them. As simple as it is.

A Smile once a while goes a mile.
Toil always brings turmoil.
I often see the phrase coined "That's all it takes"
Nope, its much more than that!
Its a Burning Desire,
Unquestionable Faith,
and An Infectious Comfort,
to Be what It takes!

To liberate is to give!

To fly is what i desire,
So be the wings for me.
Love does bind people,
but to liberate is the new to give.
I know you fear heights,
So I shall undertake such flights
And capture those views.
Because when i land,
Be rest assured,
I wouldn't blink my eyes,
until you grasp those views.

Excerpts from Brahmvihari Swami

Change your attitude:
Out of syllabus is not the point, the point is, are you ready to ace the test or flunk it. Go out in world like Great Krishna not Poor Arjun.

Believe in yourself:
What faith can do in the mind of darkness, nothing can do. Learn to accept the things you cannot choose in life.

Go with the idea, what can I give. If you can’t give, at least forgive:
Be a smile, a source of joy for someone for some time. Do some good to others to feel good.

As love can be expressed in various ways, so is Faith:
You need phone, Email, text, hug, reunions to express love with dear ones. All you need to express faith in almighty is to acknowledge his presence.
