THE WEIRD, THE AMATEURISH, AND THE FUNNY!!!

ha, the title says it all. this month has been exciting, very exciting.

its been a mixed bag of emotions for me so far, i've had it all, a bit of joy, a bit of sorrow, and a bit of surprise as well.

Starting off, how many of you have ever travelled 2 and a half kilometres on a bike whose front wheel shakes on its own, shakes in the sense, it might roll apart any moment, all it takes is one bad move or simpler put, one speed breaker.
so there i was, approximately one week back, riding back from college when i realised that my bike's front wheels were behaving differently from the rest of the vehicle, as if they had a mind of their own. it took me some time to understand the problem but when i did, i was in shock. and yeah, i did panic a bit. ;) realising i had to get home before it started raining, i kept riding, but alas i couldnt risk going over 20 kmph for fear that my front wheel would not remain on my bike if i went anywhere above it.
but the ONE above made sure there weren't any mishaps as apart from one adrenaline rushing situation i had while taking a sharp left, i managed to reach home, with both the wheels intact on my bike. ;D


The week then went by quite uneventfully until this sunday when i made my first "complicated" dish, a chicken curry. Well I've always been fond of cooking and yeah, on occasions definitely more than one, i've cooked breakfast for the family. but this was my first real try at something big, something complicated. I must say the chicken curry did come out well and it tasted great. the better part, mom who's a very good cook approved of it. So yeah, the next time i take some time attending your calls or replying to your msgs, well dont be surprised, i might be in the kitchen, cooking up some delicious chicken. ;P :D


Jus thought i'd finish off today's post with a bit of positivity. there's a camp going on rite now, a very competetive one at that. my first couple of days at the camp were really bad and i was feeling really down and out. i've always been a great believer in my abilities and i still believe in them, even during times like these but this time i was so disgusted at myself i started hating the camp. i knew it was useful to me an al but my mind was just not in it, jus because i wasnt doing well there, a pretty lame reason actually but that's how weak the human mind is. but then there's GOD. just when we think everything seems to be going against us, HE tosses one good day in between and says, "Son, dont you worry, you are on the right track." I feel fresh and rejuvenated now, one good day can do that too you.

so dont worry if things seem to be going bad, one good day is bound to come in between. jus understand this and keep working towards your goal.

keep smiling

until next time

Adios!!!!!

THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION... AND SURVIVAL!!!

"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change." said Charles Darwin.

How true he was.

Charles Darwin's theory doesn't only apply to evolution and survival. When u look at it from a much simpler angle, u will realise that it applies to our own lives as well.

So many times in our lives, we might have come across a phase in our life when we might have been subject to change, a change that was out of the blue, a change that we would have so wanted not to happen, a change that would leave us mentally strained. But u just have to move on because u know very well that the change cannot be reversed.

I always believe that the best way to become successful is to turn your dificulties into opportunities, when u are going through that phase in life called CHANGE, just think of it as God's way of telling u that this is how ur life is going to shape out. If u keep worrying about it, u will never come up. But if u learn to adapt to the change, then believe me, success will be yours.

Keep adapting, keep winning.

Until next time,

Adios!!!!!!!

INSPIRATIONS WORTH FLICKING!!!!

Here's a story i happened to chance upon while going through a friend's friend's blog. it was definitely worth sharing so i shamelessly copy+pasted it here on my blog. A big sorry and thank u to http://jaya28.blogspot.com/( @shals: i hope u recognise the web address)

anyways, the sorry, for flicking this story from ur blog and the thanks, for posting such an inspirational story. i thought it would be worth flicking so that people stopping by at my blog may also get inspired.

Anyways, here's how it goes:

One day I decided to quit...To quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality. ...I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.

"God", I said. "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"

His answer surprised me..."Look around", He said.

"Do you see the fern and the bamboo?""Yes", I replied.

When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.I gave them light. I gave them water.The fern quickly grew from the earth.Its brilliant green covered the floor.Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed.But I did not quit on the bamboo.In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed.But I did not quit on the bamboo. He said."In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit. In the fourth year, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. "I would not quit." He said. "Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth.Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant. ... But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.It had spent the five years growing roots.Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."He said to me.

"Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots.""I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you. " Don't compare yourself to others .." He said.

" The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern ... Yet, they both make the forest beautiful."Your time will come, " God said to me. " You will rise high! "How high should I rise?" I asked.How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return."As high as it can? " I questioned." Yes. " He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can. "I left the forest and bring back this story. I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.He will never give up on you. So you Never give up on yourself.


so believe in yourself, come what may.

keep working, keep growing and success will be yours.

until next time,

adios!!!!!

SITUATIONAL INSPIRATION

With things slowly settling down on my side(no the problem is not solved yet, but i've learnt to live with it), i thought i'd express it online.. but FACEBOOK seems to be the last place on earth where u can expect privacy nowadays. so i decided to use twitter and my my, has it been useful. i feel so free out there, letting the world know how i feel but at the same time knowing for sure that my words wont get twisted by corrupt individuals.

ha, the freedom.

so today morning there i was, casually updating my status on how strong i've become mentally( yeah people have told me this many times but i realised it only today morning when a casual chat with a fellow cricketer revealed how i was one above the rest when it came to matters of the mind, but chuck it, that story will wait till another day) when i happened to chance upon VIRENDER SEHWAG's twitter account.

I've read a lot about how strong VIRENDER SEHWAG is mentally, u know, with such an unorthodox aproach to test cricket, to be the first indian to score a triple century, not once but twice is phenomenal, a feat that truly requires mental strength of the highest degree, not to forget the amount of back biting he would have received in his "COMING UP" years but to leave that all behind and stand today as India's most successful test opener is something phenomenal.

But enough of the praising, let's get to the point.

So there i was casually perusingthrough his tweets when i happened to chance upon two particular tweets of his, both inspirational quotes.

i'd like to share one particular tweet today, the other, i'll save it for some other day.

here's how it goes:

If u wait for happy moments,u will wait forever. But if u start believing that u r happy,u will be happy forever.

Considering my current state, i guess these words are golden.
a big thank u to mr.viru sehwag.

To all my followers here on blogger and to all those kind hearts that take time off to come visit my blog, i'd just like to say this one thing, whatever path life shows u and whatever obstacle life throws at you, try looking at the positive side of life. once u start doing it, u'll never hate life.

so keep smiling,

until next time,

Adios!!!!!

REACTIONS

I dunno why i am doing this but i guess i have no better option to vent out my anger.

There's been so much happening around me, too many things that am troubling my mind abt and i jus thought i'd let it loose out here on my blog.

I've got so much to say, so much to ask. but guess now is not the right time. Destiny beckons, y waste time reacting to dogs barkin on the road.
Pls keep sending in ur prayers and wishes and me and the ONE above will take care of the rest.

Keep smiling

Until next time,

Adios!!!!!

THE SILVER LINING

I know it might sound cliched now that i've told this so many times, but i've always wondered "why does it always have to be me? why do people always find it so easy and so amusing to pull me down, why is it that is always me who's being targeted, why is it that its always me who becomes the scape goat." and believe me, it has bothered me quite a lot. but i read this fwd msg some time back that inspired me so much that i thought it would be wrong if i didnt share it with u.

here's how it goes:

When everything seems to be going against you, rememeber,
the airplane takes off against the wind and not with it.

and then i realised that smooth roads never make good drivers, a problem free life never makes a strong person. i realised that day that never say "why me?" instead say "try me"

as i sign off, bidding adios in this post, i'd like my followers to know that though there have been times when i've been bothered by my critics, i've always done my best to rise over them, to make them eat their own words. and knowing me and my critics, i guess this game will go on. ;D

until next time,

Adios. :)

Never blame a day in your life. Good days give you happiness, bad days give you experience. Both are essential in life.

So never fret over the bad days in life, they might actually be helping you prepare for the worser days in life. :)
