Come back into the shell

Standing at/on the terrace of the office with the senior director and trying to decipher life's mantra, I stood surprised by the simplicity and risk appetite of the man in front of me. Analyzing has gone into the blood the so much so that , judgment has become a habit. I listened to him, agreed to him, disagreed to him; but all this while; I was all thinking - Why has this man not done what he says? And if he does, why does he not show it off.

Questions were many, answers none. But determined to take a take-away out of the whole scene, I got one thing - 'You need to not only think different, but you need to follow that with passion as well'.

Passions need (to) be discovered, nourished and as life vanishes like a mild cigarette; keep an eye on number of hours spend on nourishing passions. They are less and as we age, passions die out...Truth remains - we are INTO the matrix and getting out needs a mental transformation. Which is not possible without 'free thinking - free action'.

In spite of knowing all this; like the pets of my landlord, who run away and come back home in a couple (of) days... I too moven, shaken to think at times; come back into my shell within a couple (of) hours.

And when I left my CFA dream...

This is like saying I don't want Nicole Kidman because I don't have time.

Going on a business trip the same day as that of CFA level 2 makes me feel hapless. But the reality is I was quite far in terms of even solving 2 out of 20 Qs there. My manager says - ask if they can return your money. Hah! poor he; doesn't know - give a rupee to a beggar today and ask for it again tommorow - he won't return.Leave alone a profit org. Reparation is no more a truth on this planet.

So next this thing is - Keep going dude...

My first few days here!

ISKON TEMPLE
Good old stories of RK Narayan. Very simiar was Bangalore as first arrrived here and was given a service appartnent in middle of the typical south indian culto...same old men half-clad with full lenght lungis; half-english half-Kannada security guards; half-baked chappatis; half-hearted service to northies. Very typical to south india I read in RK Narayan n was being told by hard core northies.

11 days have gone. Situation changed. Bangalore is not that bad. I moved out of the service appartment to a posh residential area. Now I understand why people like 'bangy' so much. I dindnt find northy food other than 'Chandini chownk' anyware. But also what I didnt find was 'rice drenched unclean hands'. Good food; clean food. Not only Kannda babes but a huge no. of bengalans n punjabans n mumbaikars....n expats too if u r lucky enuf. Bangalore has a good face too but you have to be in right places.

I am waiting to be exposed to best part of bangalore. - the nite life. How bangalore rocks when Delhi sleeps. Hope to see that soon :)

I cleared it and that too with all stars in 70+ range...Hurraay!!!

And down beneath, with foxen eyes...


The many scatter in the wood,
Dividing left'and right:
These follow Zaboi, those attend
Fierce Slavoi to the fight;
And towards the mountain blue they go
Deep through the forest's night.
And when the fifth day's sun arose
True hands they gave and took,
And down beneath, with foxen eyes,
On the king's host they look.

I m late

I m late...to think about IAS
...to think about being a rebel
...to think how I cud I have saved myself
...to think, if I am still worth
...to think, if ppl still trust me
...to think, if I am still strong
...to think, if I have my principles intact
...to think,what shall I do...

just flow as it comes...

I am sad and low...powerless n speechless... small and impotent...unclear n unfortunate...guilty n foolish...

I am late to prove my worth...

IN COVERSATION - GOD AND ME

At variant locations and time points -

Me: God, this is going to be great.
God: (Smiles)

Me: God, look I have prayed a lot this time. It should be different, ok.
God: (Smiles)

Me: God, I am not demanding full of x but half of x will do.
God: (Smiles)

Me: God, I will be so happy to see them happy.
God: (Smiles)

Me: Last time, God.
God: (Smiles)

Me: Once more, God.
God: (Smiles)

Me: God, I am just there.
God: (Smiles)

Me: Just Once more, God.
God: (Smiles)


REALITY IS - HE ONLY LISTENS AND SMILES WHATEVER THE CASE BE.
DRAW TWO LESSONS -

1. Keep on proposing to God. He may/may not help. But it reassures self-belief.
2.To become GOD - Just LISTEN, SMILE and do WHATEVER You feel is correct. You will become God.

SECOND ONE IS MORE IMPORTANT.

After drawing the lesson -

Me: (Smiles)
God: (Smiles)

Me: (Smiles)
God: (Smiles)

Me: (Smiles)
God: (Smiles)

Smiles Smiles Smiles ...
AND GOD AND I FALL IN LOVE.

Straight to the point - Nidhi Goyal

Straight to the point. I enlarged the photo in my fax viewer and saw this:
You can see for yourself the picture is beautiful.
Everything is awesome.Perfection and the imperfection; both. Part that protrudes from the the lower jaw is superb. It blends well with the smile. I wont call it chin caz calling that would have omitted a few muscles between the lower lip and chin line. Blending as I say of the smile with the lower jaw is superb. Smile no one would have questions about it. Tho I have doubts if it is as broad as it seems from the side view. The right cheek displays enouf to arouse the curiosity by giving a sense of unaccomplishment in studying the face. Matching of the nose line or rather scoring of the nose line just over the right cheek also adds to the mystery of not knowing the right part. Fully visible upper teeth being just above the lower lip leave room for no improvement in the lower face region. Small is beautiful. With eyes this is not generally true. But the fox-en frozen feeling of the black balls -- hidden under the eye-lashes -- with a nice eye theard work looks awesome. Again nicely parloured hair are misplaced enuf to arouse one to offer a hand and say 'Shall I help you with them?'. They come right to the shoulders with a perfect length; just enough to let the V-line visible. Long earings visible fully senses richness. Hidden ears add to the unknown. Neck-lines are generally appreciated. She has that and you can notice it. What is special about neck is the flow with which it leaves the chin n meets the neck-line. Awesome. Though I would have loved to have seen the flow continued till the V-line; which does break the symmetry at bottom center of the picture. If the back would have been more straight she might have overcome that as well. Or a little more camera angle towards the right would have covered that.
Adding to the beauty of skin and hair and teeth bones there's deeper sense of confidence which not only is prominent on face but is pouring out of the eyes more predominantly. Eyes - as I cud decipher have two emotions - Victory and some fox-en attribute which it seems I have no words for. It seems she knows it that 'She is beautiful'. I dont know how intelligent/smart she is but given she is; she deserves to rule the kings.
YOU ARE AWESOME GURL. I MIGHT HAVE WRITTEN A FEW MORE WORDS BUT HAVE A FEW INTERVIEWS LINED UP. KEEP ROBBING HEARTS.
My Concept of Awesome - Anyways, sometimes a few things make you stop and you look in awe. And most of the times we get look at them for a min or two and then start thinking about them. Try knowing more about them and appreciating them. But if neither appreciation comes out nor we try to know more about for first few minutes than I call it AWESOME.
