Khwahishon Ke Per

Khwahishen hazaron hai in aankhon mein,
Manzilein lakhon hai in rahon mein,
Par har woh dagar apni bane jaruri to nahin
Har umeed, har khwahish puri ho jaruri to nahi.
:)
While browsing through net, came across these lines. It just reminded me of a conversation i had with swati few days back.
All of us have some khwahish, some icchayen, some sapney...but zaroori nahi ki aapka dekha hua har khwab poora ho jaye. Still life goes on...and you live happily...hoping that some day hamari wishes apne anjam tak pahunch jaengi :)


Well ...to boosten up friday mood...I m starting with some of my khwahishein. And i would like you to share with me your khwahishen(Ofcourse...in comments ;...in case you have some wild wishlist which u cannot share in this common forum...feel free to mail me :P)
Note: Do not point out that max of my wishes revolve around Ravi

1) I wish to...sorry...i WANT to learn Salsa with ravi.

Now today is again

The ‘21st’ :)

We have been a happily married couple since 9 months now:) Living together is fun. And the most exciting thing to do together is fighting. What? Do u think I m kidding?? No no…Its no joke. Shona…itna time ho gaya we haven’t fought…missing our fights ;)

Vaise to every moment spent with you has been special and unique, some were quite and restful, others were eventful and joyous, a few also had a touch of sorrows, emotions and tears…yet…
each memory is a priceless treasure,
drawing us closer to each other,
and strengthening our love forever.
May our coming days, months, years be blessed with many more such special times, creating wonderful memories to treasure and share.
Madly in love with you
Your Shona!

Missing Old frenz...

Time doesn’t stay for anyone..Life moves on with a faster pace than u think of it.
Today i m missing some good old frenz. Met them when i joined hcl. Some of them became very close frenz.
From chats in bus, to having coffee together, to those morning talks about interiors, fashion, planning for movies on weekends...talking all bad and funny things about $%*&#$%#...and how he shucks!!! :P
After some good time spent in Noida, moved to Bangalore. Had new frenz...no body in the same location though, but again there used to be some good chats over call. Now...everybody has moved on in life and 3 of these very gud frenz are entering a new phase in life.
Are ready to take up new responsibilities...going to be MUMMA :)

Sheela...Sheela Reddy Agarwal...one of the coolest person I have ever met with. Kya sahi attitude hai bandi ka har cheez ke liye :)
Sakshi...Haya ki Moorat...i have never seen anybody like her. A perfect example of sundar and susheel..sarv gun sampann :)
Sheetal...yeah!!!! Good News...Sheetal Chauhan has now become Sheetal Mummy :) Congrats dear!

M so happy for all of them. But missing them. Dieing to see them. But these gals...uff!!! not ready to share a single snap with me :(
unhuu unhuu..Koi samjhao naa inko...ki i wanna see them...

A Cuppa I-Scream

This weekend was just like any other weekend. Dealing with routine chores...washing...cooking...cleaning and more stuff like that which have now become consequential ingrediants of my new life after marriage.
Just like on every other sunday, we went to Spar(ravi's favo grocery mall), first we went to first floor, purchased few items,then 2nd floor...stuffed some more stuff in the trolley...3rd floor...simply sauntered around.
All shopping over. Back to Bike. Spar has some interesting shops on the ground floor. One of them is an ice-cream parlor. While passing by, I just had a glimpse at the enchanting ice-cream bowls served on the tables inside the shop. And we left...me driving the trolley and ravi following me.
Now...u'd be wondering why am i writing all this crap?
Well...it does have a strong nexus with the story which continues.
It was a dull sunday evening. Had lunch at 5(strange but true for weekends), kept on changing TV channels, had some nice T and popcorns. Suddenly ravi turned towards me and said "Chal tuje ice-cream khilane le jaate hain." I was stunned and asked what happened all of a sudden?
Then he said "Aaj jab hum din me Spar se nikal rahe the, u were looking at the ice-cream naa...u wanted to have it then naa?"
Gari: "How do u know? I did not even had a proper look at it"
He gave me a simple smile which said lot more than the words could say.
100s of times before he had asked me for an ice-cream long drive(Thats how we call it when we go for a long drive to have a cup of ice-cream), but there was something else about it which stupidly...very very stupidly made me cry. I was smiling but coudnt fight my tears back...now literally crying I hugged him real tight...bucket full of water tumling down my cheeks.
In our case, it's very apt for me to call him my better half. He knows me better than me :)

Its Never Too Late For Anyhting!!!

Have you ever seen a flower blossom after its season has passed? No? Well…I have.
I have seen one such living example which proves that it’s never too late if you have the zeal and guts in you.
The ones who know my family well would already have guessed whom am I referring to. For the ones who are wondering…it’s my MOM.
I used to worship her since I was a kid. There were n number of things in which I wanted to be like my mom. But now…there are infinite number of things in which I want to be her exact replica or…parchhayee
A person has got just one life. One life to be what you want to be. One life to do what you want to do. One life to be with whom you want to be. One life to respect. One life to Love. One life to care. One life to think of others. One life to think of yourself. And the same life to balance all these things.
Hats off to mumma who is a perfect example of managing such a balance. She wanted to study…study a lot(She was already a gold medalist in MA), earn name and fame, work, earn respect. But circumstances and conditions did not allow her to give action to her plans. She waited…she waited till we played in her lap…she waited till we grew old…she waited till we passed our school…meanwhile she did all she could to serve different people in different forms. A perfect bahu I would say(this is the first point which has come to my mind…might be because I m also striving to attain a khitaab of a good bahu), a perfect mumma, a perfect wife, and many more roles to be a part of this perfect list.
She waited patiently. Then she got a chance to start working, studying again. People would normally think that post 35 is not a good age to start studies again. But she did it. She proved all of them wrong. She studied, and is still striving to earn degrees after degree. May god bless her and give her enough strength to actualize her dreams and she pursue a P.Hd. I am proud of you mumma. My heart oozes out to you.
May god be good to you and you get all the happiness in life which you really really deserve.
--Amen
