Ur smile is a like the sunshine which can Penetrate thru any kind of Darkness in life.

Dear Friends, Yesterday itself I saw Dominos AD (advertisement) on TV, it was a beautiful AD in which they showed that a young couple had gone to see (in progress) construction of their flat. Very sweetly they imagined how they might be entering their own home, wife sits on bricks as-if she’s sitting on the dining table and husband lights a candle. Then comes a Domino’s delivery boy (to that construction site) to deliver their Pizza order. The AD was beautifully written/shot but the worst part is behind the curtain… “ DOMINOS DOES NOT DELIVER TO SUCH NEW CONSTRUCTION SITES IN RAJ NAGAR EXTENSION, GHAZIABAD ” and I strongly doubt about other construction sites also…. This was a rainy day in July 2010 when we’ve shifted our own home in Raj Nagar Extension, Ghaziabad. Those who bought their 1 st own house may understand that most probably we’ll not find good shopping places in such area. Where we moved did not have any such shops. After 3 months I was able to locate a Domino Outlet

Incredibly bright isolated star in a nearby galaxy, VFTS 682, is three million times brighter than the Sun and was spotted during a survey of the most brilliant stars in and around the Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The most detailed image of particle jets erupting from a supermassive black hole in the nearby galaxy of Centaurus A   Tiny green crystals, called olivine, thought to be raining down on a developing star. This picture was taken in infrared light by Spitzer and the arrow points to the embryonic star, called HOPS-68.   The olivine crystals are suspected to have been transported into the outer cloud around the developing star, or protostar.   This picturesque group of interacting galaxies is called Arp 273. The larger of the two galaxies, called UGC 1810, has been distorted by the gravitational tidal pull of its smaller neighbour, UGC 1813. The blue lights across the top of the larger galaxy are from clusters of intensely bright and hot young bl

I'm not sure if this beautiful sun visited ur world this morning or not, I'm not sure if this naughty wind greeted u "Gud Mrng" today or not, I'm not sure if this vast & open sky gave u a hug or not, I'm not sure if u noticed how enchanting the morning is today.... The only thing I know is.... we r too far. Luv u ji. ----------- Wise Words: ----------- If u don't like da way life is treating u, Then look at da way u r treating life.

I read this yesterday night and sent it to my office ID, but forgot to put the source url of it. I really really luv'd mine, by the way I'm a cusp; Capri-Aqua (20th Jan). No liability or offense meant to anybody. :) Did u ever wondered why Taureans apologise to the floor; or Cancerians hate saying 'Sorry'! Here's how some signs say 'Sorry', some try, some try real hard, while some never even try. Aries They are sure they have done nothing that demands apology. Sorry to say, but 'Sorry' is the last thing you can expect from them. And if they do it, it sounds as if they are talking to themselves. If you hear it, you are lucky. Taurus Taureans apologise to the ground. They will never see you in the eye, while uttering the dreadful word. They wait for the maximum damage to happen before apologising. After all, one murder or two murders, you can be hanged only once. Gemini Geminis are perfect people - at least that's what they feel. And

As this priceless drop rolled down my face, I started wondering the real responsibilities assigned to a tear. I've heard wise men said: God is the Director and we all are mere characters in this movie called "The Life".  Let me tell u that I'm not at all sad, I'm so happy at this minute. Reason? Answer: Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. When we r deeply happy, we get these liquid pearls. When we r sad, these pearls reduce our pain as they roll down. What exactly is the role assigned to tears by the lord? Talking scientifically, what exactly these drops do; which seems to control the imbalance of emotions in us? I won't call myself a god-fearing person, bcoz I don't fear from god; I somehow am full of luv for him . I won't even call myself religious bcoz I rarely take pains to visit our shine; but I greatly respect all saints and good people . I won't call myself sacred bcoz I don't do daily prayers, nor I fo

“You can't change what you have started, but you can change the direction you are going. It's not what you are going to do, but it's what you're doing right now that counts." Author: Napoleon Hill This Beautiful quote made me break my silence of 15days, Well… well… Those who know the depth of these words will luv it, rest of the people can only appreciate its approach towards life. But I’ve got no complaints from either of the group; bcoz some1 told me in my childhood that we all are children of the same almighty lord. There are few rules I have in my life, and 1 of them is that: Bocz I luv some1, so I will luv everything which is connected to my luv’d one. Ex: I luv their possessiveness, and I luv that “limited amount” of freedom they give me.   Following this rule had landed me into so many tough situations that I will personally suggest all emotionally weak people to “NEVER” try it in their life. If u have attitude, and if u have strong ego, then also plz do not

Sometimes, Missing is more precious than being together, It is true that the beloved is not with us physically, But it is also a fact that beloved is more important….. Then everything else which is physically with us….. Because, we miss only those people whom we never want to MISS. I understand the feeling of Missing ur beloved ones, at times… it hurts a lot. But now… after knowing the life from a close distance, I wonder that how much immature I was to let my heart hurt because of Missing. Puzzled? Okie let me share a beautiful quote with u all…. Read this slowly, carefully, let these words sink into ur heart….. As a bee - - without harming the blossom, its color… its fragrance… Takes only its nectar, and flies away: so should the sage…. go through a village. -Dhammapada When the heart starts hurting, it’s in our hands as to what we take and what we leave from the situation. We can cling onto the sadness of missing our beloved, or we can strongly hold onto the happiness of “f

The greatest Gift u can give someone is.....  "Ur Time". Bcoz whenever u give ur time to someone..... U tend to be giving them a "Priceless" portion of ur "Life".... A portion: which u will NEVER get back to live again. Hindi: Agar aap Zindagi ka sabse mahatpoorn uphar kisi ko de saktey hai toh woh hai aapka Samay. Kiyuki jab aap kisi ko apna samay daitey hai tab aap unkey sath apni zindagi ka woh hissa baantey hai jo ki aapki zindagi mein dobara kabhi waapas nahi aayega. I thank all of my friends & strangers who gave their time to me on various occasions in life, I thank everybody of u who have spent even a single minute for me. I know I'll never be able to repay for it, so as a token of thanks... I'm giving my time to everybody who had approached me in a hope to share something/anything with me. May god keeps me blessed so that I can always be rich enough to give my time to everybody and anybody who needs a shoulder. May god bless u too.... w

Never take failure to your heart; and success to your mind. This beautiful quote is really effective, but only if u remember it in all gud/tough times. But a Q surprised me when my own heart asked me "Why did people in Japan only suffered?" series of Quakes, and a devastating tsunami, a volcanic eruption, then explosion in a nuclear plant … obviously these are not just coincidences bundled together. Seems as if we humans need to SERIOUSLY change.... not only our actions, but we need to change our thinking also. Being an embodiment of forgiveness, god always gives a 2nd chance to all his children. I feel that god had sent alarm to all of us with that glimpse of destruction; god knows that nothing can weaken their will power and his Japanese kids will stand up again the same way they did after WW-II, so he selected that area and gave a wake up call to rest of the world. I don't know about all of u, but I feel embarrassed about my irresponsibility. I believe such pu

I miss these meaningful chats which we used to do in past.... life had turned too busy. If u're unmarried don't see this... its a boring chat. For married people, its time for u all to realize the truth and reason of ur living. Bcoz only u have to become the perfect example for ur kids, nobody else in this world can play ur role. I was blessed to have a wonderful parents who taught me so much that today I'm able to think clearly about what's right n what's wrong for me. I won't waste ur time on lecture, so let's go thru what I liked talking about..... The meaningful chatting... Friend: just remember u are tooooo youngggg gsvirdi: :) gsvirdi: yes ji.... number wise I am.... age Friend: hmm..kuch nahin for now gsvirdi: but bcoz I came to know that I have a right to luv anybody on this earth (irrespective of this number) so I'm using my right to do so :) Friend: u make me smile :) Friend: yes ppl should be taught more about luv ki language Friend: i know ou

There are mainly 5 Hurdles that everyone must overcome in order to get the best of their life, they are: 1. Money, 2. Ego, 3. Time, 4. Distance, and 5. Fear.

While talking to one of my dear friend in my office, I just had this thought. This guy is not a old time friend, he’s my colleague but now we’re friends! As I was listening to his unhappiness faced in life, I got this thought. What’s common in Sin & Faith? U can stop reading and close ur eyes to think the answer... Otherwise I’m gonna tell u. A common thing in Sin & Faith is the single alphabet ‘I’ standing in the heart of both words. As I realized the depth of that answer given by my heart… I was silently surprised. Let’s talk about what I think of this heart (I). Sin:: U will find ‘I’ in the heart of sin, and this I will make u do a lot of things which eventually bring the other two characters (S and N) together. Before u can ever realize the outcome, the ‘I’ in the heart… would have already made u complete the word “Sin”. With that u also acquire the basic qualification of being called as Sinner :). Either now u can ask for forgiveness and pledge that u will try ur best to n

Today I just feel like talking about a single word “Respect”. In my lifespan I had seen a very big and unavoidably very important role of this word. U may ignore to give respect in life, but u can’t ignore the ‘after effects’ of ignoring (or giving) the respect. I can say that: Everybody had fallen in luv at least once in life. Leaving exceptions, those who close their heart and life (won’t comment on the reason; could be something too personal); there is no place of luv in their life. So let’s just have a look on the pattern with which we luv a person… If we see closely, then we always fall in luv after getting attracted to a person. We get attracted bcoz the person possesses something which mysteriously had made a huge impact on us. In other words: When u luv someone, u respect him or her for being “the person” that they really are, not the person that u want them to be. After falling in luv, u may want to make some changes in ur partner’s behavior, thoughts, actions, attitude, lifes

I was so very impressed to see a beautiful article (on Guru Arjan Dev) posted by my wife on her blog Ganappa . I can tell u a lot about Guru Arjan Dev, but I would prefer u to read the original blog. She wrote it beautifully, and here is what I want u to do in ur life to get the blessings..... The reason I was impressed is that she came to knew about this Sikh Guru named "Arjan Dev" a few weeks back only, and she did all kinda research on the net to know more about him. In spite of  being from a different background she took such a deep interest in Guru Arjan Dev's history that she dug up all possible information. The adorable name given to the title of the blog is Forbear, forgive: Guru Arjan Dev and this was the Exact message he gave to this world. By quietly accepting all the torture done by mughals on him, the guru gave the message that the one who accepts to bear the torture is much more stronger then the one who is torturing. The bearer is much more stronger to for

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather prefer that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze; than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor but temporary with every atom of me in a magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. As I strongly believe that the proper function of man is to live, not just exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time to best, in a way it(time) really deserves. Wasting time = Wasting ur life. :)

Herbert Spencer coined the phrase, "survival of the fittest." Herbert Spencer (who coined the term) and Charles Darwin. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_of_the_fittest I’m nowhere concerned/connected with ecological study, but the reason I’m still using the term “Survival of the Fittest” (SoF) is that I was made aware of this term by a colleague of mine in the office just few days back. Man… our life is based on SoF!! was his words, and I was totally shocked. Bcoz what I knew about this term was that SoF was used to describe the evolution theory for species (animals) and their way of natural selection of evolution. But how the hell this term became applicable from animals to Human beings of 21st century? After talking to many of my friends I realize that due to the fast pace (our lifestyle), people had started believing that the life is competition. I tried to place my belief that competition maybe applicable for work/office, but I found that people (Less then 4

Socrates came upon an acquaintance that ran up to him excitedly and said, “Do you know what I just heard about one of your students?” “Just a minute,” Socrates replied. “Before you tell me I’d like you to pass a little test. It’s called the Test of Three . “ The first test is Truth . Are you sure that what you will say is true? “Oh no,” the man said, “Actually I just heard about it.” “So you don’t really know if it’s true, Socrates said. Now let’s try the second test, the test of Goodness . Is what you are about to tell me about my student something good?” “No, on the contrary..” “So,” Socrates interrupted, “you want to tell me something bad about him even though you’re not certain it’s true?” The man shrugged, rather embarrassed. Socrates continued. “You may still pass though, because there is a third test, the filter of Usefulness . Is what you want to tell me about my student going to be useful to me at all?” “Well it ..no, not really..” “Well, concluded Socates, “ If what you want

I don’t know what are you expecting from this title, let’s guess what I’m gonna talk about here? Will I talk about correct ways of praying? Difference between Right and Wrong kind of prayers? Give some lecture about Praying? Remind you about the importance of Prayers? I’m not planning to do anything like that, I myself is bored of lectures. I strongly believe that there’s nothing like wrong way of praying, then why did I selected a title like “Praying correctly”?? In fact I’m having something else on my head at the moment; I’m planning to connect this situation with practical life. Like everybody else, u also must have faced lots of struggles, u get tired of them, u said a prayer Oh lord, gimme a good life, and ur faith hopes that the prayer reaches the god, u wait for the prayer to get answered, u wait and wait, and as the patience weakens the faith; u start believing that god is not listening to ur prayers. U feel ignored and lonely, sadness embraces u to the point of suffocation. No

Thou seest many stars at night in the sky, but findest them not when the sun rises. Canst thou say that there are no stars, then, in the heaven of day? So, O man, because thou beholdest not the Almighty in the days of thy ignorance, say not that there is no God. - Sri Ramakrishna Read those lines again, word-by-word, aren’t they having deep meaning? Yes! We know they are deep thoughts; full of love. You must be feeling a bit surprised the way I am feeling right now, the word “Ignorance” is not expected from the kind mouth of a great soul like Sri Ramakrishna. We all will agree that this word is full of negativity, then why such a blessed soul used this word? Before talking about anything else I would like to think first about the reason why Sri Ramakrishna used such a negative word. I believe it’s the anger which might have made appear that this word is best and most appropriate word to be used at that time when he said those enlightened thoughts. Leaving all things behind,
