Long Vacation...

I am going for my long awaited vacation to Puri and Sammed Shikharji, a jain pilgrimage.
I have taken off for whole next week, so will be having limited access to net. I will try to keep my resolution by posting through mobile, pertaining to mobile connectivity.
I started my journey to spirituality today morning itself by visiting Sidhdhi Vinayak early morning at 5. It was so calm and serene, it didnt take much time too. I did whole darshan in just 15 mins.
Have a nice time folks...

Time To Relax...

After a long time, it was the day full of relax (although some intruders tried to make it hell ;-) but who cares... ). Went home early, nothing to do so played Fifa 2006 on my laptop for around 3 hours, Made France World champion by beating Brazil 3-0 in semis and Spain 4-1 in Finals :-)

Enjoyed it a lot :-)...

My Attitude...

I never say anything bad about myself.
Not because I believe I'm perfect.
But
I've enough People around me to speak on that Topic...

For few people I have always been reluctant to show my attitude but its time for fire shower, the venom of scorpio is about to spill...

BEWARE...

संवेदना...

यह एल्बम मेरे लिए कुछ ख़ास हैं क्योंकि इसमे समाविष्ट है एक कवि के सोचने की दृष्टि, एक कवि का हृदय और एक कवि की संवेदना. यह गीत इसलिए भी ख़ास है क्योंकि इसमे उन सभी लोगो का समागम है जिन्हें मैं हमेशा से चाहता रहा हूँ - अटलजी, अमिताभ बच्चन, जगजीत सिंग और शाहरुख ख़ान...

ज़िंदगी की शोर, राजनित की आपाधापी, रिश्तों नातो की गलियों और क्या खोया क्या  पाया के बाज़ारो से आगे, सोच के रास्ते पर कहीं एक ऐसा नुक्कड आता है जहाँ पहुँच कर इंसान एकाकी हो जाता है. तब, जाग उठता है एक कवि. फिर शब्दों के रंगों से जीवन की अनोखी तस्वीरें बनती हैं, कविताएँ और गीत, सपनों की तरह आते हैं और काग़ज़ पर हमेशा के लिए अपना घर बना लेते हैं.

अटल जी की ये कविताएँ, ऐसे ही पल, ऐसे ही क्षणो में लिखी गयी हैं, जब सुनने वाले और सुनाने वाले में, तुम और मैं की दीवारें टूट जाती है, दुनिया की सारी धड़कने सिमट कर एक दिल में आ जाती हैं, और कवि के शब्द दुनिया के हर संवेदनशील इंसान के शब्द बन जाते हैं.

क्या खोया, क्या पाया जग में

मिलते और बिछुड़ते मग में

मुझे किसी से नहीं शिकायत

यद्यपि छला गया पग-पग में

एक दृष्टि बीती पर डालें, यादों की पोटली टटोलें!

अपने ही मन से कुछ बोलें!

पृथ्वी लाखों वर्ष पुरानी

जीवन एक अनन्त कहानी

पर तन की अपनी सीमाएँ

यद्यपि सौ शरदों की वाणी

इतना काफ़ी है अंतिम दस्तक पर, खुद दरवाज़ा खोलें!

अपने ही मन से कुछ बोलें!

जन्म-मरण का अविरत फेरा

जीवन बंजारों का डेरा

आज यहाँ, कल कहाँ कूच है

कौन जानता किधर सवेरा

अंधियारा आकाश असीमित,प्राणों के पंखों को तौलें!

अपने ही मन से कुछ बोलें!

Magic Fortune...

Have been extremely busy in office now-a-days... Not getting enough time to think and put down thoughts... So here are some my Facebook Magic Fortunes.. Most of them are coming correct, If not I am trying to make so ;-)

"When in doubt, let your instincts guide you."

"A challenge will bring forth your finest abilities."

"You will spend the rest of your life with the man (or woman) of your dreams."

"You will touch the hearts of many." 

"Merge your spirit life and your work." 

"Your co-workers take pleasure in your great sense of creativity"

"A gift you make will bring great pleasure to others."

"Your conscience will guide you in making a big decision."

Mumbai Marathon 2010...

Had a great time in Mumbai Marathon 2010. We as a group every year volunteer for the Wheel Chair Event in Mumbai Marathon. The fund raised by this is donated for the education of 2 kids in Nandurbar district of Maharashtra. This time we were in all 11 volunteers. Our main activity was to guide all the wheel chair participants and their attendees to proper location in Holding area, the area where all people are gathered before the race. Then moving them towards the start line, called as Line-Up Process. Then after the flag-down move back to finish line and greet them at the end of the race and move them back to the Holding area for refreshments and sent-off.

Although they all were not physically fit but their mental strength and enthusiasm was so high so that they can beat the normal people. A usual smile to them is returned back with a warm smile and sometimes with warm hug too... I enjoyed a lot with them...

Also we had Genelia D'souza as the celebrity for wheel chair event. So it was like icing on the cake... Uploaded few of my pics on the picasa which can be accessed here...

अब मुझे कोई इंतेज़ार कहाँ...

जिन दिनो आप थे, आँख में धूप थी...
जिन दिनो आप रहते थे, आँख में धूप रहती थी...
अब तो जाले ही जाले हैं, वे भी जाने वाले हैं...
वो जो था दर्द का क़रार कहाँ...
वो जो था दर्द का क़रार कहाँ...
अब मुझे कोई इंतेज़ार कहाँ...
वो जो बहते थे आब्शार कहाँ...
अब मुझे कोई इंतेज़ार कहाँ...

Feeling Relaxed...

Feeling relaxed after slogging for last few days... Had high work pressure and greater responsibilities... The output seems to come out as great, Still has to be passed by more scrutiny... As Ganesha says, "Scorpions are stubborn". I have always been stubborn about the highest quality work to be done for anything I do. I create my own standards and have to stand on it...

Tomorrow is again a working weekend but I am fine if it gives me more satisfaction...

Lot of things are in pipeline for upcoming days... Lets see how things fold out...

Photolog Update...

Not getting enough time to update this blog. New pics uploaded at my photolog.

Busy...

Extremely Busy...

1 Year @ Alphion...

Today on 12th Jan, 2010, I have completed 1 year @ Alphion Communications. It was a very steep learning curve and I am proud that I have done reasonably well. A great team to work with, very good visibility with Management, Appreciation duely honoured and lots of fun are few of the long list of Pros working here...

Few pics for today's celebration:

My Instincts...

My yesterday's Facebook fortune says, "When in doubt, let your instincts guide you". My whole life I did the same and it gave me all the things perfectly but I am afraid to use my instincts now. Yesterday onwards Almighty is showing me lots of Omens and I am trying to decipher the bad and the good ones.

Blogging at morning 5 is an unusual thing for me but a nightware woke me up and made me restless. I hope my instincts do not betray me and give me the comfort as always....

दिल तो बच्चा है जी...

New song from Ishqiya, I am in love with it...

ऐसी उलझी नज़र उनसे हटती नहीं...
दाँत से रेशमी डोर कटती नहीं ...
उम्र कब की बरस के सुफैद हो गयी...

कारी बदरी जवानी की छटती नहीं...
वल्लाह यह धड़कन बढ़ने लगी है ...
चेहरे की रंगत उड़ने लगी है ...

डर लगता है तन्हा सोने में जी...

दिल तो बच्चा है जी...
दिल तो बच्चा है जी...
थोड़ा कच्चा है जी...
हाँ ...
दिल तो बच्चा है जी....

ऐसी उलझी नज़र उनसे हटती नहीं ...
दाँत से रेशमी डोर कटती नहीं ...
उम्र कब की बरस के सुफैद हो गयी...

कारी बदरी जवानी की छटती नहीं...

ता रा रा... ता रा रा... रा रा रा...
ता रा रा... ता रा रा... रा रा रा...
ता रा रा... ता रा रा... रा रा रा...

किसको पता था पहलू में रक्खा...
दिल ऐसा बागी भी होगा...
हम तो हमेशा समझते थे....
कोई हम जैसा हाजी ही होगा....
हाए ज़ोर करे कितना शोर करे....
बेवजह बातों में एँवेँ गौर करे....

दिल सा कोई कमीना नही...
कोई तो रोके...
कोई तो टोके...
इस उम्र में अब...
खाओगे धोखे...
डर लगता है इश्क़ करने में जी...

दिल तो बच्चा है जी...
दिल तो बच्चा है जी...
थोड़ा कच्चा है जी...
हाँ ...
दिल तो बच्चा है जी...

ऐसी उदासी बैठी है दिल पे...
हँसने से घबरा रहे हैं...
सारी जवानी कतरा के काटी...
बीड़ी में टकरा गये हैं...

दिल धड़कता है तो...
ऐसे लगता है वो...

आ रहा है यहीं...
देखता ही ना हो...

प्रेम की मारे कटार रे...
तौबा यह लम्हे कटते नही क्यूँ...
आँखों से मेरे हटते नही क्यूँ...
डर लगता है खुद से कहने में जी ...

दिल तो बच्चा है जी...
दिल तो बच्चा है जी...
थोड़ा कच्चा है जी...
दिल तो बच्चा है जी...

Network connectivity again...

I am back with network connection at my home...

Tikona Network Team really sucks... They don't know how to treat customers... Their service is the worst I have ever faced... I have had connections with Airtel, BSNL, Reliance and TataIndicom. First time I thought of trying a new service provider, But as one of friend said, the most important aspect of service has to be taken care by everybody...

I am happy to move back to TataIndicom Broadband connection, at-least it provides me the uninterrupted connectivity that I need.

Working weekend...

I hate working on weekends :-(

Today it was one such day but my commitment to work did not let others down and in future too it will never happen. The appreciation mail from team head made my day :-)

Thoughts about me...

I got this SMS,
"Think of me for 5 seconds and send me the 1st thing that comes into your mind except my name. Do Reply, Whatever comes 1st without hesitation send it..."

I forwarded this to few of my friends and got some wonderful words:

1. Very charming, caring, sweet and decent. Lucky would be the gal who will marry you.
2. Innocent guy.
3. A sincere guy.
4. Genius

I would like if the readers of this blog will also put their reply to this SMS in the comments... 

1 year in Mumbai...

Today its 7th Jan and I have completed 1 year in Mumbai. Last year have been pretty good for me professionaly, will be completing 1 year in Alphion on 12th.

PS: Same date last year Ramalinga Raju confessed his fraud.

PPS: My net is still not up :-(

Badlaav...

Taqdeer ne jaise chaha dhal gaye hum,
yu to sambhal ke chale the phir bhi fisal gaye hum.

Apna yakin he ki duniya badal gayi,
par sabka khyal he ki badal gaye hum.

A Normal Day...

Today was a fine and uneventful day. Still struggling through my new internet connection Tikona Networks, it is wireless Broadband connection based on 4G networks. It works out well if gets connected but my premises is having some signal problem, so the connection is getting lost frequently.

Next few days are going to be busy, lot of trainings and audit are scheduled in next 2-3 days. Some high priority work is also coming, So I am all geared up...

Meanwhile have a look at my photolog.

Home Again...

After 8 days of living alone in the house, my room-mates came back yesterday from their long vacations. Although I liked the solitude in those days, I had freedom to do things as I wanted but last night when we got together we had delicious homemade snacks, ordered food from outside, had long chat sessions, discussed about different things and watched movie "Ek Chaalis Ki Last Local" :-).. In all it felt great like Home Again...

PS: Was unable to update blog because of internet problem... Updating it as the blog for 4th Jan, 2010...

3 + 3 Idiots...

3 Idiots... No this post is not about the controversy the nation is currently indulged in... It’s about IDIOTS in my life...

Whole my life by God’s grace I have been surrounded with so many wonderful and beautiful friends. Enjoyed a lot with them, learnt a lot from them and I am very thankful to all of them... But here in this post I would like to bestow my gratitude towards, so called, idiots in my life... (I’m going to hurt lot of people for not making them in this list, but they will agree with it).

If you have seen the movie then this word is not about the mental level of people but about the practicality of life, friendship, knowledge and passion to do something... I tried hard to find those 3 idiots in my life but unable to do so... So I divided my life in two parts, school life and college life...

So my 3 idiots from school life are (Not in any sequence, can’t push my heart and mind further):

1.Priyadarshana aka Moti: This girl has been with me for last 13-14 years, extremely talented writer, full of energy and very spiritual. We had our great time in school for debate, extempore, plays etc. And then first of year of graduation too. She is one of my biggest critics; she knows my strength and weakness very well. I can always walk up to her and she will lend her ears to hear me and find out the solution for it. She says that she is afraid of me don’t know why... Anyways Moti have a wonderful and bright future... Your sweet little Bro is always here for YOU...

2.Ashish aka Ashi: What to say about this person, I know him from Nursery class and we were one of those few people who studied for whole school life together, But we both never studied in same section at any point of time. He is one of the most active, naughty, but an intelligent and brilliant guy of our group. We were the flag bearers of mischievous clan in our school, played football together for school, worked for different school organization committees and bunked classes officially for these things ;-). We miss all that now. He stays far away from me physically but mentally we both are together at any point of time can share anything with him and He is always at his best to help you out, sometimes going out of the bounds to achieve it.... in last 20 years we have seen many shades of life together and I wish that this will keep on going...

3.Shruti aka Bubbly: Yes I call her by this name, Bubbly, she is so effervescent in life, In earlier days of our friendship she used to be very silent and introvert. I know her for last 13-14 years and I have seen lot of transformation in her. Now she heads an academy for journalists, the occupation which needs lot of energy and interaction. Being youngest in our group, she is still like a child and constantly looks upon us for the advices. She gets upset easily and there is the point when we have to pitch in... But she is mentally so strong that every time she proves all of us wrong :-) Be like that always and win the hearts and battle of life...

Now it’s about the idiots in my college life... (Again not in any sequence)

1.Shreyans aka SHM: Shreyans is one of the person with whom I started my journey of engineering, he has got enough talent and charm to please people around him. Somehow he seems to be a very show-off and flashy person, but when you spend time with him, you will come to know how down to earth he is.... A true gem to be owned in your friend list, always ready to hear about friends and help them out.... In his words, “I am the worst person in his life but he cannot get rid of me.” And he is true; I will never leave him :-) Shared most of my college life with him, so many told and untold things... He has seen one dream related to me and trying his level best to get that completed but we are never sure of it and now the line of the sight is getting thinner for it... But I hope what happens is for good only and this will too bring something good for us... Amen... You are one of my greatest buddies and will be forever.... Have a rocking life ahead....

2.Surabhi aka Pooja: Met this girl in mid of first semester in my engineering, She has such a persona that you cannot ignore her presence. She has been dull and unenthusiastic in her college life, but you can feel the aura she possesses. She has always been practical in her life, she knows what she wants to do and achieve. She is one of those friends who know me better than anyone. I can talk to her anything without any hesitation and we had spent most beautiful friendship in all these years... She has carried life’s burden with the utmost elegance and that’s what is most admiring in her... Although sometimes she become so irritated that you don’t have any way of consoling her and that’s the fear I have for her in future... Be patient, be calm the Almighty is doing everything for our best only... I wish you the best in life for each and every path you take...

3.Rahul aka Sharma: He is a very nice and charming boy, have lots of knowledge about both studies and life as well. "The life is to live" can easily be seen by his behaviour. His smiling and confident face reminds me that things are never easy in life; you have to cruise over them.... I don’t know what kind of relationship we share with each other? But I can say that it is far better than the friendship. We both never claimed to each other that we are the best or good friends, still we had shared each and every thing about our life to each other, even very minute things which nobody else know. I think this is "How friends are?" You never need to say it, it just happens.... Our friendship will remain forever and forever the same, the understanding without speaking any words... Be confident and you will always succeed in life...

I know the post has become very long and if you have come till this point you will know how much these people means for me.... I can write more about these people... Hats-off to all you 6 IDIOTS of my life... Wish you the best, I miss you all...

Movie Run..

It has been the best possible solution for spending my time while enjoying it too... In last 3 days I have watched 4 movies. Due to recent frequent visits here and there movies were on hold for me.. So completed the backlog in this long weekend.. Movies included Rocket Singh, 3 Idiots, Avatar and Gulal... No idea if I will go for something else tomorrow too ;-)

New Year Resolution...

What's my New Year resolution? For last few days many of my friends or followers asking me rather complaining me about the disappearance of my blog. Sorry folks was going through "Writer's Block". So I took a resolution this year to update my this blog everyday. Some of the days may contain multiple posts and sometimes it can be one liner too... But I will try my level best to put some inputs on it daily... If you don't find my updates pinch me hard, nudge me harder...

 

न था कुछ तो, ख़ुदा था, कुछ न होता तो ख़ुदा होता
डुबोया मुझको होने ने, न होता मैं तो क्या होता!

हुआ जब ग़म से यूँ बेहिस, तो ग़म क्या सर के कटने का?
न होता गर जुड़ा तन से, तो ज़ानू पर धरा होता

हुई मुद्दत कि, 'ग़ालिब' मर गया, पर याद आता हैं
वह हर इक बात पर कहना, कि यूँ होता तो क्या होता?
