An old post...

O Lil kid ...
In this journey of life
Soon along the way
U'll meet folks of many a sway
Hear loadsa stuff; some worth a nickel some worth a dime.
Some will speak, some will chime..
Don’t hear them all, don’t take to heart them all
Hear some, Listen some, and filter 'em all…

Remember To
Be nice to all,
But never weak.
Be pleasant,
But also firm.

Remember
Do not accomodate ..
...for all.

Don’t see their age,
Don’t see their visage,
Don’t see their wealth or sheen,
But be sure that they are not mean.
Recognise with whom your heart connects,
Forget then the class and the sects,
Make THEM your friends for life...
You 'll have much more of care, and negligible strife,
Much more of sunshine,
N none of that whine !

Remember to have fun along this journey in time
A Lil more of sugar and....
......a lil less lime ...

Tuesdays with Morrie ...

Tuesday with Morrie - is a wonderful book that one should necessarily read..not theat it has something out of world which is taught / written in the book, but its sheer simplicity of language of the book and the protaganist's directness in his approach towards the simple things in life ...something that cuts through the clutter in one's life and hits you bang on! Doesnt matter what stage in ife you are in - working, student, old, 30s, 40s, I think its one book which will speak to you...

A Must read ...

Long Weekend and bored with work !

Dil bole Hadippa ...

Awesome Lyrics ....

Duniya firangi syappa hai, fikar hi gum ka papa hai
Apna to bas ye jaapa hai, fikar karein fukarey (hadippa)
Chewing gum hai chabbi ja, hand pump hai dabbi ja
Life ka joose kaddi ja, fikar karein fukarey (baliye)
Khush rehne ka nahin lagda, koi tax o rabba
Oye bhool fikraa, hai jigraa, toh sang mere bol hadippaaaaaaaaa !! :) :)

For those who have difficulty understanding punjabi ...

The worlds a foreign Syappa ( dunno hindi / eng for it)
Tension is the root of all down n sad in life
I have only one matra in life - dun take tension n be happy !
only idle take tension
Its (Lifes) like a chewing gum , keep on chewing
Its like a handpump , keep on pedalling to get water
Just extract d max out of life
let the idle take tension !!
One doesnt have to pay tax for being happy...its free
Forget everything , Enjoy and say Hadippppppppppa !! :) :)

hmm .. simple yet rare ...

I don't need a bed of roses
`Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart (strong heart), a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am

................
nice...mirrors my thoughts

faith hill - song lyrics

Of Being ALIVE...

After many a days along
The heart wants to hear a song
Feel a rain drop or two
Sway to a beat and do a cha cha too
Just be free
Out on a spree
Freak out
Break out
Forget the rules
‘N’ the limits

Dance
With mah friends
‘N’ forget all the fiends
Dance until the feet hurt
Until wishes the heart
Until the mind forgets
Forgets who what where and when
Remembers only times long ago with friends then…….

Sing at the top of my voice
Of my own Choice
Oh that song
Forget what is right or wrong…..
That rock
That song n shock

Feel………….not think
Bang the Head
Think of the memories past and not what lies ahead…
Of Times gone by,
Classes, parties, and dances - oh sigh!
Of matches, catches,
Snatches and Competition between 2 batches!
Of beating bottles on the balcony and the plates,
Empty copies and empty slates :P
Of shouting our throats out hoarse,
And of fun amongst the unending college chores……
Of jives, high fives

‘N’ Of being A L I V E…….


Feel….the magic

Of dance, music, friendship and the beats

A frenzy, An electricity, A heat

A Timelessness………..

When the work has become too much and time too short!
When I m playing the game of catch
And the lifes running ahead

Mish Mash...

My heart wants to dance like a kid
But hey the world doesn’t want me to skid
More and more responsibilities on me - oh Sigh!
All I wanted was to jump up high
They sent me to the boardroom with a tie…
Told me go grab a piece of the market sky,
Spread your wings, lets fly !!!
The work I don’t want to shirk
But sometimes the sheer endlessness does irk
All I want is a lil break,
So I can give my leg a lil shake…
I wish to spend a few more of those fleeting moments with mah friends
But the distances just don’t let that be a trend
The coffee disc bdays and just chilling is going fast out of fad
Lifez running by…ahead by more than just a tad
I just want the party to last a li…………l longer
But all I am becoming is that suit clad somber
Those numbers, rfp, bids and oh that tender
Sometimes I want to scream out “what a blunder!!”

Don’t look at me like that pal
I am just a teenage souled grown up gal 

Ek dhun ...

Ek dhun aajkal …
Aksar sunayi deti hei...
Kahin duur jaise halke se.. haule se...

Beete dinon ko yaad karti huyi,
Wo raaste wo lamhe…Wo dostana..wo masti bhare pal ,
Kabhi ashkon mei aasun, Kabhi hothon pe Muskrahat bikherati huyi,
Aaj …kal... aur aaj mei uljhi huyi si ...
Sawaal karti huyi .....
Aage badte kadamon ko dekh
Peeche chootey samay ki ret mei nishan dhundti huyi
Un lamhon ko sanjon kar
Un beetey palon se nikal kar aaj mere sath chalti hei..
Wo dhun..

Dil ke kareeb...
Meelon duuur logon ko dhundti hui
Milenge dubara hum sab kahin....
Dheemey se yehi gungunati hui
Namkeen meethen palon ko amar banati hui
Nayi subah ki aur badhne ko kehti hei...
Wo dhun...
