Dear Life,
I know you will always do well unless a more treacherous thing than you ditches you. Keep up the game you play every day. The video game of my life is very exciting with each door leading to more pitfalls and just one real door(that is hidden) ;)
Wow, you are awesome! you have a different and new game set everyday for each breathing creature alive! I wonder as to how do you do this. Ambidextrous are you and reminds me of Goddess Durga. Are you really her?
Would like to know more about your multitasking programs and algorithms written since time unknown. Do let me know. Will keep the secret well hidden! Kudos :)
Last but not the least, the list of your fan following is huge. The fans are sort of freaked out in the video games you designed for them so they could not convey their love for you. Some of them are lost in transition through the Bermuda Triangles created in their games by you.
With much enthusiam to see much more,
Love
Nupur (a lover of the video game of my life)

Saga of the Golconda fort!!
"Everything that goes up comes down" said someone. The famous saying resonates in my mind each time I visit a fort. There are 2 reasons for it.
1) The glory of the once glamorous fort becomes the memories of the bygone days where as the fort is a new example of gloom in the present.
2)We climb a fort (panting) and come down (refreshed).
The above thoughts revisited me today when I was at Golconda. It is a famous fort in Hyderabad. I visited it with a friend who is a history maniac :) so effortlessly I got to know about the Golconda without a real guide. He told me that he has been to Golconda 6 times before. In one of those times the guides to the fort thought he is a new guide and questioned him......Sometimes knowledge can land you in unforeseen circumstances.
It was too hot in Hyderabad today as May is one of the hottest months here. The temperature and the staircase to the fort almost took my breathe. I was panting and my face all red. The brain demanding for more oxygen......Why I chose May to be here and why not some other cooler months...Huh! My dream to save myself was close now as I reached the top of the fort and there was a cold drink shop I can see vaguely. My friend Saptarshi climbed without much effort; would have become a habit.....how can I forget he has been here 6 times already.
I sat down and requested him to get cold drink.....Drank...What a relief...Phew! :) After that we saw the whole Hyderabad from above the fort. It was beautiful. After all pain it was worth it. Captured the view in my eyes as we did not take Camera and we came down the fort........and hey I was running down the fort......"I hope you do not want your medical reimbursement tomorrow" he chuckled.
There was a light and sound show in the eve which depicts the complete history of the Golconda fort in the voice of the Big B. We thought to go there before time so that we can get the front seats. Alas! we are late but not too late we got seats in the second row along with a Cat sitting beside me on a chair. I was fumbled when I saw that the cat`s fur, cat`s eyes and the chair colour matched. It was light brown.
We two were waiting for the show to begin. Ahead of us was a gang of 5 people from a company and they were waiting for 3 girls who would join them. We never talked to them but since they talked loudly.......so I have ears people. The 3 beauties stepped in and one of them OMG I know her...............or may be I dont.....may be we both do not....or may be just me...."Thanks to orkut" I smirked and thought. She is the girlfriend of my school senior and I saw her in his photo album.
After a long time thinking should I or should I not ask her I decided to ask her....I enquired "Hi ! Do you know ______? ". I felt her heart pounded and she asked who are you. I was his junior in school and blah blah explanation. I found her good. Good choice senior :)
The show began finally.......It was awesome with voice of Amitabh Bachchan as a guide explaning to visitors. In between we had ghazals and bhajans sung by Jagjeet Singh and Kavita Krishnamoorthy(only the audio). The Golconda Fort came back to life with the lights specifying the stories narrated in the background. I could actually imagine the king , the queens, the soldiers, the plots, the plays. I got an Idea these people should include real actors as well to give more realistic images. May be I should send them this idea. All in all the SAGA of the Golconda fort came to an end with Aurangzeb the merciless ruler who destroyed the the prosperous regime of the Golconda empire. What a fantastic day for me! :D I came to know so many stories today. The rocks of the fort have seen them all but they stay calm and quite as ever.
We returned the saga was over and now the butterflies of hunger were hurting my stomach. We had prawns and chicken and I came back home after that............and here I am writing down the experience.
THE MIGHTY SAGA OF THE GOLCONDA FORT WILL LIVE FOREVER.......as the fort will never die.

Time has been judgemental ..eversince its existence is known ;)
Do not you feel so?.......TIME just the word seems so common even in the illiterates...why?
I think it is because it affects and judges us all. Its impact is wide enough to neglect its name "TIME".
The galaxies, the stars, the Universe.....as a whole has been judged by time. Their states depict the impact and the judgment of time on them. Beautiful and ruthless TIME can be at times :)
As they say about the mutual existence of things good vs evil, love vs hate....I was wondering who can oppose the merciless judgments of time?????.........there is something :) that can ditch time and we all can escape from the judgments of time........The Black holes
Wish we had something to switch between both of them......so that we can give a nice TIME to TIME looking for us......you got me right "The time machine"

THE WORLD AROUND
Myriad of images circle around me as I sit in train right now. India as a country is full of wonderful contrasts, I have read this very often and today experienced it myself.Although I have been in train so many times but never observed the things so closely.
People around me right now sometimes make me think,laugh,understand,adjust,irritate,feel pitty.A jargoan of such emotions can be felt in an Indian train journey.It is again a great place to learn things meant for a Life journey.It is such an overwhelming experience.
Right now I am hearing my favourite song and I can hear an uncle too enjoying it and singing it along :) This Uncle is a business man who joined us from Hyderabad. He wants herdaughter to be a Tennis Player(I felt so good when he told me and could see a glitter in his eyes).Hail Uncle!!
A cute Muslim couple are taking care of their 6 months daughter so wonderfully that is beyond imagination. The guy is helping her wife change the nappies of the baby. Indiachanging....We need more men who can understand their wives and love their daughters. My father too loves us so much.Love you too papa!!
The silent Nepali sitting beside me is very adjusting. I can learn from him how to never offend anyone and do self sacrifice even on small issues.People so modest are very rare these days.
Now there are 3 people left about whom I will right after crossing Lucknow station.We have just left the Kanpur station. Basti is just 7 hours away...yipee!!
.............Well the journey got over long back and today I got to right about the other 3 left people and now I am back to Hyderabad. Didi`s Shaadi went well :)2 among the left ones were 2 Ladies who were so lithargic that I wondered why they ever exist as they did nothing but slept all through the journey. What a waste of life!!
Last but the most special is Mr. Ramanna.We just started talking and it lead us to so many different topics of discussion. Very lively and healthy discussion we had.Came to know that both of us were interested in spirituality. He is a veteran while I am just a novice. The knowledge which I got from him through discussion was phenominal.I came to know about so many baffling questions that always knocked. He gifted me a book on spirituality (he said that usually he never gives such books to people as they cannot understand such things.). Thank you Mr. Ramanna for giving me so much of respect and trust. Hope to meet you again sometime!!
So such is life where people come and go but some leave marks which we will never forget but would love to remember all our life through.

God`s own child
Do not you feel sometimes that you are HIS favourite. I do feel it at many a times. It is just that Gods way of showing his love and care is different. He gives you a hope each time you miss on something. If you do not identify it then its your folly.
Destiny is one thing but the path to destiny is already defined by him and I can see him smiling at me as I am writing this sentence. Trust me really!!!
Not always HE does good as nobody is perfect and neither Him. He tries to balance the things and sometimes giving little more to his loved souls who are less impure than others. I am blessed that he keeps on Gifting me things which I never expect. Thank you for your surprises and miracles.....Now I like them.....Thanks for being there.......I love you and I know I am your favourite and treasured child :)

No control.....of what is up!
Sometimes it happens that we THINK we have all the required ingredients to be happy forever. There is nothing like F.O.R.E.V.E.R......I beleive now that we only LIVE IN our own dreams when life conspires. Life says to you, "Madame! you have had enough good time....Now it is time for me to play with you.". The mockery of all your dreams and thinking can be seen together and that too may be JUST BY YOU. You will have no control then and the events will unfold themseleves and open up like Pandora`s Box. Each along with a sigh and a smirk would show you what have you been doing or for what......I bet you would learn the lessons of a Lifetime for time to come and only this would be FOREVER WITH YOU.
Hence, Dream a lot if you want to learn lessons from Life.

The Duality of Life, people and me!!
Duality is the word which I see everywhere these days. Office, home, friends, me, relationships experience the same duality in some different forms.They do not realize it I guess but I did realize for myself and can see in many others(not just humans) if not all. May be the chinese theory of Ying and Yang (wikipedia: how seemingly disjunct or opposing forces are interconnected and interdependent in the natural world, giving rise to each other in turn) is true.
To be frank enough I started this blog because I need peace and I think i can express like this to the whole world. Peace of my mind and peace of my soul as I can see duality encroaching even on me.The roots of duality on me are very weak now and I cannot let it grow.
I plan to write almost everyday till I become good at writing ;)
