Lesson for the Day!

Learn to hear No!

Seldom we are told to learn to say No! Yes, I always used to say Yes to whatever I was asked to do and things didn't go very well with that. I have learnt to say No - may be the hard way, but I believe it's worth it. What I still have to learn is to be prepared to be ignored; to be left out; to be answered with an obtuse No! on the face. Apart from teaching me to accept whatever is thrown at me, it'll also help me to subjugate my expectations from people. 

Learning to say no may be important to live, but learning to hear it might be crucial to even survive!

Pichhle Saat Dino Mein Maine Khoya

Meri Laundry Ka Ek Bill, Ek Aadhi Padi Novel...
Ek Ladki Ka Phone Number, Mere Kaam Ka Ek Paper...
Mere Taash Se Heart Ka King, Mera Ek Chandi Ka Ring...
Pichhle Saat Dino Mein Maine Khoya
Kabhi Khud Pe Hansa Main Aur Kabhi Khud Pe Roya

And just like this song, the movie 'Rock On' shows how many things we lose everyday. It's only very late (sometimes too late!) that we realize how we lost it and how important it was in our life. Sometimes, all of a sudden you know that you've just lost someone. Those emotionally stressed moments seem to be very painful. But more depressing are the times when you are in the process of losing a person. You know that this person has been a part of your life and at the same time you see him/her drifting away. It's the helplessness that makes this ordeal even more painful.

But life is more complicated than you ever know. You never know how it can slither and throw surprises in the name of broken relations again at your face. Sometimes these experiences are good; more often bad. But all we need to do is accept them as life's new lessons and move along with them. These are the tests life inflicts upon us and it's upto us to live upto our own estimation of our capabilities. 

Life is full of complexities. You just have to not allow them to take over you!

Lesson for the Day!

It's not always your mistake!

We often (unintentionally) assume that the world is centred around us but it's not. Just like so many things (including people) affect us, so are other people affected. And I am not the only reason of anything (or everything) going wrong with me or the people around. Was it lack of confidence or too much self-consciousness, I'm yet to figure out but at least I've stopped finding myself guilty of anything and everything.

Long Time No See

I know I've been away from blogging for a long time now. Can't say longest because I'm not sure how long this session of blogging will last. I was thinking of getting back to blogging for quite some time though but just couldn't think of anything to start with. Finally thought of one of the reasons for why I wanted to get back to blogging. 

Year 2008 has been really different for me in a lot of ways. I have seen a new face of the world as well as of myself. I have come to know more about myself. And that's what I believe life is all about - to look towards one reactions (and how they change with time) as life throws another problem at your face. 

Okay, coming back to the main topic, I've been doing a lot of things which I used to do some time ago but had left in between; thanks to the Industrial Attachment I did for good 6 months. It was this realization of life taking a U-turn that made me think of getting back to this website. Some of the things that I've been enjoying doing again after this gap are - 

Meeting old friends - Friends who had been away or I haven't been in touch with for a long time.
Attending classes - Nearly after 9 months.
Trying to keep my table clean - I remember how particular I was of keeping it clean in my first year of university.
Not caring about anything more than myself - First rule of life: To love others, learn to love thyself!
Downloading and sending songs to people - Songs that I love.. People who believe in my choice of music.
Reading Harry Potter again - Just found nothing else more interesting than the scar-ed boy!
Trying to get back to Facebook and Orkut - Finally fed up of people's complaints of not replying to their messgaes on these websites.

Apart from these things, after blogging, there's my guitar to give some time to. Haven't even tuned it for 6 months now. And friday night is a plan to go for a night-out with friends at ECP (East Coast Park). So looking forward to enjoy these deja-vu experiences and hoping to keep finding stuff to blog about!

Cheers!
