Give it a thought..

(This post is entirely my friend's experience and I do not take any credit for it.)

My day begins with someone screaming at me to wake up. I’m in too deep a sleep to acknowledge that it's not a dream. When reality strikes me, I wake up all miffed and look for the cause of it. Dad!

And then I remember. Dad had told me the previous day that he had an important conference to attend and I am not to delay him in the morning like I always do. But I did. I get up from the bed to do my daily chores. Though I tried to hurry, we still end up starting late (more late than we usually are). I was in a lousy mood myself because of the bad start, lack of sleep etc etc.. (name it and u got it).

He dropped me at the bus stop like he always does and my wait for an auto began. Suddenly a gust of wind blew my hair and I started feeling a lil better. I had this impulse to take a bus ride instead of an auto. Usually am excited about commuting through busses because of the variety of people I get to observe. Just sit back and look around at their moods, cultures or any irrelevant gestures about them. So I boarded one and it was empty. That didn't help raise my spirits, of course. Then slowly it started to fill in with a few people hurrying to work and students for college.

At the next stop, a few workers got in holding their "gampas" (some construction equipment). Bus was already crowded so they had to slog their way in. Every single person in the bus cringed at the sight of them. An old lady started screaming at a worker for brushing through her saree. A young man screamed at another for stamping his newly-polished shoe. The deluge of such insensible reactions weren't surprising. This is how workers and laborers (and many other category people) are treated in India. But the shocking part was those workers didn't mind it. It hardly affected them in any way. In fact they were totally oblivious to the people around them. And then I thought, how could it be that when only one person scolded me (and which I totally deserved), I could feel all gloomy and let it ruin my day and those people in the bus hardly receive any kind of loving gestures from anyone, seem so unaffected ?! We really need to start appreciating the excess of affection and love we get from everyone around us ! :-)

Change is not always good..


What good is change if it doesn't make you happy ?! Or if its not happiness that u seek, then why change ? Coz isn't being happy most important ?

Why do people these days constantly think about the way they look, the way they are, the region or case or creed they belong to, their status and especially what opinion others form about them. But why is it important ?!

Ok here is what made me ponder over this issue.
I have a friend and she is a lil fat. And she has no problem with it and I totally love that about her. But when one of the guys from my class commented something highly annoying about her, she wished she had some control over herself. And that's when I enter :D I know, am more the irritating type (and I especially like irritating her :P), but I really had to have a mature talk with her to make her feel secure about herself. And I did but it took a lot of patience on my side. And I think it was unnecessary because she was happy (and still is). When she gets no depressing thoughts about being over weight or any insecure feelings, then she is better off being that way. Why should anyone bug her to lose her weight ?! Especially her mom :|

Here, I can relate myself to it, but its just the opposite with 

me :P Am under weight. Well not really :P But everyone 
thinks so :| I have no issues with it and even my mom's 
occasional lectures have no effect on me. Coz I love myself. 
I love the way I am. And I don't see any reason why I should 
put on weight for someone else's happiness (or euphoria 
where my mom is concerned :P).

All am saying is, if u do not have a problem being the way you 

are, then get a life and stop obsessing about what other 
people perceive you as. Forget the society. You are not 
committing a crime by being fat or dark or belonging to some 
low caste or religion. If you do change yourself and be accepted by others, does that achievement make you feel proud ?! Is it even an achievement ?! 

But if you DO want to change, not for the sake of society but 
because for once u wanna be slim, then you can always do it :-) Nothing is ever impossible. And losing weight is just a piece of cake (oh but do avoid cakes and other tempting desserts plz :P). And for all those people who believe that they are doing it coz they want to and are still unsuccessful, they are just not interested. Its not effort that one needs. Its the intentions that matter. 

And all those people who think its fun to make fun of others, 
know that you are not perfect yourself. And of course, people who take offense in those comments are responsible for the 
fun those bastards have. Ignore the losers. Be yourself. Be the way YOU want !



Finally !!

Well it took real long for me to make this blog. Like everyone, I faced the same problems. Laziness, procrastination, not finding a good enough name, being very selective when others tried helping me :P and so on.. I made this blog nearly 3 months ago. But the cycle of problems repeated when it was time for my introductory boring post :P

As am already bored, I might as well have some fun boring others too :P

Hmm.. I created this blog just to dump all my stupid thoughts, feelings - mostly emotional, so weak-hearted ppl, stay away :P ; crazy and crazier dreams; and just my not-so-needed opinions about everything and life itself.

I'm not gonna introduce myself here, coz I'd prefer it if my identity remains anonymous. The reason would be that, I like to share my thoughts but at the same time I do not want to give anyone the chance to say that they really know me :D I know its really stupid, but am made that way (wiring problem :P). And I'd appreciate it, if my friends and followers and fans :P, do not on purpose or unintentionally mention it and blow my mask away :P (not that you'd not face life threatening consequences if u try annoying me :P)

My sincere thanks to all those friends who motivated me to make this blog. Finally after an year, they're deemed successful ! :P

P.S: I love using emoticons. Please bear with me :P
