Dont know if you've noticed this tendency in people
its called A) Denial
B) Lies
They are two very different things but they're also kind of similar...
Its because we want to stay in denial(sometimes) that we lie!
We say we want to be happy!...guess what....its a -LIE...we dont...if we did ...we would do something about it and BE happy!
We say we wanna be THIN!....guess what....its a -LIE.....no we dont...atleast not enough to get off our lazy bum and work out for an hour everyday..
We say all these wonderfully meaningless things...will we ever stop?
ever?

My thoughts on Navroz!!!
Lets look at the good in other people!...*yes this is going to be one of those* (i-have-just-taken-a-bath-and-am-at-peace-with-the-world-kind)...(its also Navroz...Kashmiri New Year!)
Infact, lets start with why you (the lovely reader who is addicted(?) to the virtual world) should immediately transfer your attention to my friends' blogs!...
Handsie/Swati- Well she has a simply awesome way of telling you the truth regardless of the circumstances that the truth shall throw everyone in...now i know everyone doesn't like honesty...but she'll tell you the truth and follow it up with some sensible solution...so the pain isnt that acute!...:D...and thats exactly why her blogs so great!...its not only a comment on society but it tells you what a 'good' persons view of the world is....you will genuinely love how righteous she is and how capable she is of changing the world...(one person at a time...:D)...truly fantastic stuff...
Swetha- well, you'll adore her for a completely different reason...!!! Her blogs more of an online journal..(kinda similar to mine)...the self acknowledged "Whine Queen" will pour out her heart with frightening ease....its all too easy to delve into her life and your going to end up wanting to hug and kick her at the same time!!...hug her cuz shes endearing and theres no way you can deny that...kick her cuz she knows whats good for her, comes up with the solutions...talks about them...accepts them..and refuses to follow them!!!!....Its still a fascinating read and if you truly want to get into the mind of a girl...you know where to look!..
Anu-well she doesnt really blog...but i'd feel terrible leaving her out...so lemme just imagine what her blog would be like if she did...maybe you should just visit her profile on orkut....it'll give you all the info...;)....all you dance fanatics should, however, bug her into writing...i have a feeling she would rock at that!....
so now you know why you shouldn't be here....go on now....scoot!...:D
by the way if you happen to know me for real...then your probably swetha and swati...cuz i dont pass along my blog id...and if you know me and your not the above...well lucky you...you found me!...:D...and if its the other million unknown people who just dropped by...well..hello...and now bye bye...hope you had a nice read but since this is more of an online vent...and not a im-showing-off-my-fantastic-skills-as-a-writer-blog...i would suggest you appreciate just how fab my life is...plaster a big fat smile on your face....and have a very nice day...cummon now...leave!..:D

the sunday 'sunshine'...meh...
Swetha and I have started having these 5 min quick conversations. They’re more like news swapper moments, when we update each other. Actually I’m the one getting updated. There’s honestly more happening in a nuns life when you compare it to mine. Naturally more prayers but I also mean the social aspect of it.
Yesterday I had this really weird chat with rex *suitable pseudonym* (if you knew me, you would know why ‘rex’ made sense)……anyway, we were casually talking about the temple and stuff. I was actually feeling a little impressed because he’d taken his dad to the temple the day before. Somewhere during our little banter I casually asked him what he’d prayed for. This normally forthcoming guy suddenly becomes extremely tight lipped and in a mock-joking way tells me that ‘we’re not supposed to talk about what we pray for’. Pretty taken aback, I laughed it off by saying something like ‘oh yeah, in any case we’re not supposed to pray FOR something. Praying is simply a way of remembering God.’ And all my mind is thinking is…’what?’…
We tend to form opinions about people. If you’re a little self obsessed (like yours truly) you may be at a risk of perceiving people as two dimensional. It’s honestly a little cruel to restrict people’s worth in your eyes to that but that’s where ‘ignorance is bliss’ comes in. Whenever we personally don’t find people extremely interesting, we automatically assume they’re not interesting. Not that I don’t find rex fascinating. Well…I don’t…but that’s neither here nor there. The thing is that I was so self involved that I didn’t open myself to the hidden depths in him. It made me very uncomfortable. The conversation turned a corner and we talked about other things at great length but this is something that stuck with me.
Very strange. Well, that’s how my day was. Will fill you in as I figure out new things!
Will also talk about my obsession with ‘figuring out’ the world. As though that will make it any better to know why stuff happens! Well actually, it will….:D

FACT
You may choose to not like what i write
But i'll write it anyway
and disagree with you...every step of the way!!!....:D
But i'll write it anyway

ps-wrote this mid conversation to define how a song made me feel...
"the sky is grey and the rains seeping into my only pair of shoes.."
Inevitability
Wonder what it is that made you see
Pursue beyond fear of indignity
What it was, that I wanted to hear
And watch your lips, mouth to me
No hesitation or sidestepping
You came right up
Looked me in the eye
And then we knew
We knew right then
You and me
Had come to an end
An end of sorts,
Nothing too dramatic
Just an exchange of vows
(How odd the word
To use at such a time)
But we vowed together,
To never be near
In happiness or sorrow
Lend not a hand or ear
No shoulder to weep on
Would either of us seek
Maybe a smile of recognition
When we would find our will weak
That’s all that happened
No big deal you see
It’s been known to happen,
Just not so openly
Normally, one disagrees
And turns the cheek, to reality
But that’s why I like you
That’s why we’re so great
We understand it’s over,
We know the truth
No ones in denial
In search of a refuge
It had to happen,
Statistics don’t lie
Though we all start out
In a mood, to them, belie
Life gives a chuckle
As it watches us part
Moving on, alone at last
No need for sympathy
Or a pat on the back
I told you, it had to happen
And it happened at last…
