I havent watched anything else except News channels in the past 2-3 days. When my manager changed the channel from CNN to some indian news channel I didnt take it seriously. But when i came close to TV only then I realised that its something big thats happening in Mumbai. Horrific.... terrible.... those 8 hours in the office I kept closely watching the news channel.Next 2-3 days it was only TV nothing else.They bombed Taj, Oberoi - one of the top notch hotels of India. A week back there was a documentary on Taj on one of the channels. I guess it was Discovery Travel-Living though not sure.They just renovated a part of the hotel. Sad :(
During our US trip, we stayed in Marriott. What if the same incident happened there with us ? I know you would say it wont happen in US but remember these are the people who had bombed twin towers. I cant even think of it. Imagine the plight of people & their relatives who have gone thru this horrific situation in the past few days.

Commandos- they did a splendid job. Hats off to them...The way they carried out the operation & did their job was splendid.when asked by TV channel anchors they simply replied back that it was their job. Amazing....!!! In one of the incidents (courtesy: HT), one of the commandos was helping the people out from the hotel. People were quite scared on which he said that the first bullet would go thru him as he is leading them out. Not an ordinary man like you & me can say this in a situation where you yourself is not sure of your own life.

Terrorists- they were aged between 20-23. They should have channelized their energy & state of mind to doing something positive for themselves & for their country.Killing innocent people wont take them anywhere. Even their allah wont accept them.

Its high time that our govt should do something about terrorism. Metro should be given security & the police personnels should be given advanced level of training so that they can combat situations like this. Even if they deploy army that wont be a bad idea. A separate intelligence service should be started which should work round-the-clock in getting information about the infiltration & other non-illegal acts.Army, coastal guard need to tighten the security at the borders. Citizens like me & you should be given some kind of training as how to deal with the situation. Nothing is impossible iin this world. Its just that everyone including I, citizen of this country has to put in some effort, has to unite in such situation.

Salute to all the police personnels & commandos who laid their life in this battle so that Mumbai & this ountry can live in peace.
God bless India...!!!

Delhi

South Delhi has got a charm which no other part of Delhi has. A short visit to s.Delhi fills my heart with life :) Visited that part of city after a long long time. Wow.... I can see human life which I can relate to :) I can see people with smile :) I can see old, young, kidos, couples all together :) I really miss those days . But life has to go on so it will.... N' so am I. Flying kiss to south delhi.... phoooooooo.... ;-)

Makes a good read.

Diwali Wishes

Wishing everyone a happy & prosperous diwali.
May the brightness of light takes away the darkness of your life & spreads the warmth, peace & love thru out the year.

Hard times

I realized how my bday simply passed by.I used to blow the trumphet a month before my bday & let the whole world know that my d-day is approaching. This year it was all different.No zeal, no enthu, no excitement.It was like any other day with the difference that I was getting calls & friends, colleagues wished me throughout the day.

I never dreamt that I would get into a situation like this.Worst part is my parents & my only brother are not listening to me. For them everything is ok. I am trying to make them understand that "it" is not good for me. They're not ready to take NO from me. It feels bad when no one is with you specially your very own parents.But at the end of the day its me & my life. Thank you so much anamica, subash, yugal, for standing besides me & helping me to see the things clearly. Thank you for giving me the strength when I could have broken down.Thats all i can think of writing here.

another s***

Another proposal, another trip to Chennai.

Everything sucks these days for me.

The Secret

Yes, this is the name of the book which I am reading these days. :) Truly a motivational book.

* The secret is the law of attraction.

* If you want to change anything in your life, change the channel and change the frequency by changing your thoughts.

* What you are thinking now is creating your future life.

* The law is simply reflecting and giving back to you exactly what you are focusing on with your thoughts.

* No matter where you are now, no matter what has happened in your life, you can begin to consciously choose your thoughts, and you can change your life. There is no such thing as a hopeless situation. Every single circumstance of your life can change.

Those were few of the motivational lines from the book. I'll keep adding on to it as I go thru the book.

Btw finally after struggling for more than a month, got the internet connection :)
