"You might spend hours and days and months wooing a girl and she might all be shy, or scared to reciprocate. But, when she does, having gathered her guts and erasing previous memories.. do not act smug, do not act indifferent, do not be cool, do not be mean. Let her rush into your open arms, else she will be left nursing a sad,sad heart "-- Every Girl in this World.
What more can you think of. This was the quote by one of my very thoughtful friend. And so beautifully put. It just simply touched my heart to the core. It brings back all the pain that a girl suffers. All the tolerance that she goes through. All the efforts that she takes to keep up her relationship.
The world typifies a girl as somebody having a very strong and crude heart when it comes to love. But does it realise what actually takes for her to love somebody. Does it realise that once she makes up her mind to love somebody she has given herself entirely to it. And what does she simply expect in return, her love remains the same as the one who did everything to woo her. When a girl takes her time to decide..its not her indifference or hard-heartedness towards the opposite sex. she wants to ensure that she doesn't repeat the mistakes of her past, she doesn't end up into a fake relationship.
And very smartly put by my friend. If she is in love realise it. Feel the importance of being loved by her. Encourage the tit-bits that she takes up to enrich the love between the two. Flourish her dreams and always keep your minds open to relaxation to her mistakes. Nobody is perfect after all. Even a girl goes through alot. Its more important to stand by her and not refute her.
Leave not your girl alone, ignoring the sadness of her life. Let not distress befall her on grounds of the love between the two. Let not her heart be ever left to crying in the dark within herself. Share her tears and turn them into serene moments of love. That's when you grow up and stand by the love for which you had once given up everything else.

Calligraphy or Typography
Laptops, macbooks, ipads, iphones....and ofcourse their sequels steering the world of technology to greater heights. and what can we see.. the youth flashing all of these all the more considering them to be instruments to adorn their fashion statement. adding to which is the changing system of education making it more oriented towards technology. this has led to a lot of paper being left off the shelves giving it a better name under recycling(i doubt how much of it is done with that cause in mind).
Talking about papers being replaced now we come to the missing relevance of a good handwriting. the days when toddlers were made to sit and inherit a beautiful style of putting letters down have gone and been replaced with kids flashing gadgets(about which we got to know as adults) and learning how to handle them. now this has put a lot of redundancy on the benefit of attaining a good handwriting. but do you think its right to change our outlook in this way? why switch to a world of keyboards and get driven by the order of qwerty?
When the saying goes the pen is mightier than the sword, we definitely need to realise the importance of writing. coz writing is in my opinion the best way to express oneself. and when good handwriting comes along with it, its a pleasure to the reader too. so why not let your writing skills be glamorized more. we might turn to the thought of storage of our articles which is convenient in typing down but why not give a thought of taking up the age-old diary habit..and not just follow the rest of the world.
After all a man's personality is reflected from his hand-writing. so its time to switch to the uplifting the creativity of stylish writing. coz pens will always remain mightier than the sword. so why prefer typography over calligraphy.

'I' for 'India' or umm Ireland....
The India that it is. Totally diverse and scattered. But unified at one and that is cricket. the mania that it upheld surpasses whatsoever budget or scams or verdicts may come or go. Thats how India stands unique and different from the rest of the world. Cricket runs wild as fire in the blood of we Indians. And its not in India vs XYZ match that it gets manifested. the enthusiasm is evident in other matches as well.
Just take the recent England vs Ireland match. Minnows taking over a super-power and that too without much of a manouevre. Such sheer brilliance of the Irish adding up to the beauty of a World Cup match. worth mentioning is the fastest WC 100 in just 50 balls against a team known for its bowling squad. And we were wondering England isn't that easy a team after it tied with our home team considering the scoreline seeming unattainable.
With the tables turning over for England against Ireland, a lot of apprehensions have been drawn ahead of the India vs Ireland match. And definitely critics and fans are coming up with their own notions as to if there is no change in strategy in the Indian team then things would be sour on our stride as well. Now that Ireland isn't a minnow anymore.
Expectations, hopes all these drive the Indian mentality and Indians are open to witnessing a lot of excitement. Just wondering if victory gets mixed with this excitement then it would be worth a WC match to look out for.

Love as it should be
This is my first stint with something romantic. And specifically its the love between those struck by cupid's dose of magic potion. I'll strike a different cord this time. Love has been harsh, brutal and painstaking for many. Several have failed to survive the struggle of love. But alas my friend here is the irony. LOVE isn't a struggle entirely at all- that's where the essence lies. It comes naturally to those who are truly enveloped by this divine virtue. It requires no effort at all to love and feel being loved. Talking about the feeling of being loved is no doubt very enthralling. To see your lover taking difficult measures to consolidate your loss, suffice your worries and offer the most rejuvenating solutions to your problems is definitely a second paradise. There being no space for emptiness in your life. No matter where you are, how you are, your love is always there beside you if not physically but mentally. Spirited-high and enamored beautifully is this feeling of being loved.
And talking bout showering one's love for somebody, it just requires one thing. The realization of love. Its purity. Its irrelevance of being reciprocated..nevertheless if reciprocated its the best the doer can ask for. It stands free from any obligations. The mesmerizing state leading one to oblivion and causing one to restrain from any external forces that defy one's internal thoughts of action- that is what comes with true love.
Love in its serenity stands apart from all worldly feelings. Transcends human expectations and needs. Makes its doers resort to an arena of benevolence. The power of love is stronger than the strongest of bonds. Bonded by emotions but not bounded by restrictions. One just needs to gauge its true nature. Then is when one gets the gift of love unwrapped and truly desired for.

Should MBAs be taxed at higher rates in the country?
Just the other day i heard one of my friend's cousin getting placed at some financial firm while she was in the final year of her management degree in IIFT Delhi. But it wasn't just the news of her getting placed that was of joy, it was specifically the package that she was offered....a whopping 17 lakhs. And let me tell you its not very unsual nor very surprising for somebody paasing out from any of the IIMs per say. Especially when IIMs A, B, C have that figure as their average salary.
Coming to the topic, admitting the fact that MBA definitely means money all the way. The salaries mba graduates earn is just increasing all over the globe. And many questions will arise at this point regarding the taxes that they should pay. And in a country like India with a maximum of population below poverty line and considering the fact that less than 4% of the population contribute to 96% of the wealth in the country, it becomes very evident to propose that MBAs should be taxed at higher rates.
But how well do you think is this proposal justified? The basis of which lies in the unequal distribution of wealth. But the thing which seems to be missing from this scene is the fact that what kind of MBAs get paid that much. I mean we have MBA institutes increasing by hundreds everyday but not all can boast of the selection criteria or for the matter the standard of education provided by top B-Schools in India. Seeing the number of CAT aspirants increasing day by day and the increasing competition that comes along with it and the selection policies being reformed as to select the best from the lot it seems to be a perfect scenario of "The survival of the fittest". Not everybody gets into an IIM. And currently chasing the same dream it wont be wrong to say that the pain that goes into getting into one cannot be compared.
And its not just getting admitted which ends the story. Surviving throughout the 2 years of rigorous study isn't easy as well. And then when you land up with a job that has great moolah why is it being over-hyped. And for that matter why be taxed higher. Now that shouldn't be justified. Just because their salaries come to notice unlike the thousands of corrupted officials who earn more than they should behind the scenes. no doubt MBA graduates can be made to think in a way to contribute effectively to the nation's existing problems. rather than bringing forward an imposed and biased form of tax-paying regulations, subjects like social entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility should be more of concern. that would definitely be a more sound approach to tackle the problem of poverty and India's economy.
And why take to another form of inequality even if its in matters of tax-paying, when already there are so many disparities existing in the nation.

PEACEFUL WARRIOR....
Well, amidst all the hullabaloo regarding college administration, the fiasco-least expected, the mess that could have been avoided, all that jostles your mind, makes you break yourself out, cry out of the feeling of despair that triggers your thoughts every other moment making it easier for you to loathe the college administration and power.
Here the perfect thing that could happen and mind you the only thing different from all the others is watching this movie named Peaceful Warrior
and thanx 2 gitanjali, i took her advice or else i couldn't have been blessed with the most inspirational dialogues i ever heard...
And seriously indeed it has made me much much wiser today. Wiser by both thought and action. The protagonist withholding his valiant skills and assets never to be subdued or flawed by external elements. Such is the magnificence of being at the top not at the cost of others being subordinate to you but because you know you have been there and done that with your efforts being utilised to the maximum.
And here i would like to state one very famous one-liner which can really teach all those running behind fame without much application of their cognitive skills
But all this don't come so easy. The realisation of this fact is not yet engraved unto me even. It takes a lot to understand. It takes alot to keep digging yourself all throughout without caring for the end results. And why shouldn't it be when everyone
around you does the same, this is where the story strikes out. Perseverance and determination builds through you, it intrigues one by inspiring one to rub off all the bullshit that tells one that one isn't enough.
It poses the question. What are you? the answer comes...The Moment.
If you cant transgress the present with your valiance then you're nothing. One has to live with time and not fade away with time. Momentary happiness doesn't count, what counts is the way you've tackled the hurdles and how you led those hurdles to be considered as momentary.
here is where the Peaceful Warrior stands. Heightened. At the Top. Magnificent and humble. Zenith is where his position is.

The journey is what brings us happiness not the destinationThis reminds me of the recent Kangkan Pujari case where the results seem to get derailed every other day but the very fact of a few days of unity being put to display by all the final yearyts for a single cause and that to put to effective use is what is noticeable. The journey is what is worth to come to the forefront, not the source neither the destination

The Unspoken
Subjugate your thoughts of action
Malign your own identity..
Overshadowed by Numbness
Yet trying to prove your fidelity!!!
Foregone are the times
When things were understood..
Be no matter concrete or abstract
Realized without words of relevant mood....
Now contemplating those times
You feel dismayed, disgraced..
Questions, critics pour in
Choice to justify never gifted...
Mould yourself to net get jolted
By the incorrigible situation's frame
Helpless are you
Coz there's nobody you can blame!!
Morbid seems your life
Tears replace your best companion
And when you try yo question
Situations leave you all alone
Expectations fail, Weakness crawls in
Strength of mind gets challenged
Support is what you need
But Dejection is what you get!!!!
