Definition of Success

I was  gazing aimlessly at the busy traffic around while commuting to office...I got this sudden urge to define success... Then I realized one common phenomenon these days...A success of a person is measured only in his financial status... Then I started mull over it further ..Success differs from person to person ...Situation to situation.. Success for a vegetable vendor would be to sell his stock for the day ...For a kindergarten kid would be to get a 'star' on his book from teacher...For some teenage student would be to clear all subjects in that semester.. The by-product of a success of a grown-up adult would be some financial outcome... A regular IT professional would aim to get better rating inorder to get some good chunk of hike... Some artist would be to recognized for his work to get a better value for his art.. But will everyone would be interested in the by-product... Ofcourse who doesn't want to make a living with what he or she knows ... But is that the...

My Musings on Sad reality...

Image
As I walked down the streets and entered into my colony....So called 'The Coconut Garden Layout' I saw many trees cut down....That made me write this article... After seeing this i lost hope in good healthy future Let me first brief about the layout I live in....The day I was taken by my husband to show the new rented apartment which we were looking to move in Bangalore....This area greeted me with lots and lots of trees... That too Coconut trees...Thus the name of the layout 'Coconut Garden Layout'  was justified.. Full of Life...Full of trees I happily agreed to move into this apartment ...As I could see greenery...And awesome ventilation... Within few months of me coming into the apartment I saw few trees being cut of and apartments being made...This really was disheartening to me....Slowly I could see more and more trees being cut and apartments being made.... I have been to Bangalore earlier...Quite few years back...Then it was kNown as Garde...

So called 'Valentine's day'

Year after year i see the hungama around this so called day is increasing...from a single day of Feb 14th to a week full of celebrations....okay may be in next few years it might be even a month full of giving gifts..taking treats.... Let that be for the whole year....showing love is not something which is confined to a place or a day.... actually how many of us really get a chance to show the love to your loved partner....plenty ..isn't it?? Then why to wait for a day and post the rose photos on this particular day....it's simple...mass hysteria... everyone are doing it....let me do something and post it on social media..... Why remembering your beloved ones only on a day... Father's day... Mother's day....i am sure many of us don't even know the origin of these days.... Okay if you don't still buy my argument....celebrate your loved one's birthday....or their success ....when it is really special....rather than celebrating on a day for which we don...

My Love for the city

Image
The local train moving swiftly from station to station....I sit in a corner and watch people get in and out... Its a busy Monday morning and i am into the city after a long break.... we were shifting out of of the city in few weeks and the inner me is not accepting it in a happy note.. Not every one likes this city....reasons vary...but once u find its soul in its language or dressing or cheerful smile of silk saree draped aunties ...or in the chats coming out of temples in the mornings...or in the beautifully decorated kolams in front of houses...you will love it... Though the hot sultry humid climate and lack of weekend places might pull you down... That's just the part of the city... now i see people from various religions and cultures mingle and get a common traditional look and humbleness... I remember my first journey to the city all alone in a train and people in my coach were talking various things about the city...someone scaring me to the core... ...

Morning Musings!

Image
I was lazy enough to switch my alarm off and close my eyes…After 15 mins my 2 nd Alarm wakes me up..! I have already made up my mind not to jog just for today, But my sleepy mind suggests me to leave my laziness behind as I am on a rigorous diet.. So in few minutes I decided to go for a walk not a jog though.. I was not in good mood in the morning..So I thought may be a walk can change the mood.. As a habit , I started selecting songs to plug in the ear phones , I selected the song from S/o Satya murthy.. Chal chalo chalo.. Truly inspirational song! I recommend to read(Listen to) the lyrics.. That’s it…My mood started to set right within few minutes, My mood was coming back and ready for a fresh morning. Songs really change your mood- true indeed..! As someone rightly said.. ‘When you are in happy mood - The music is what you look for, When you are in disturbed mood – you look at the lyrics’ I think I repeated the song long enough to...

The Habit of Honking Horn...!!

Image
After a long tiring day at office, I started off to home…Sweet home. I had to take a diversion from the main road, All of a sudden my focus shifted when I heard a long honk at back of my bike, I moved sideways and gave the way thinking that bike might need it, I saw the bikewala with goggles, his daughter sitting in front and his wife at back moving parallel to me as the traffic was indefensible to move forward in that narrow road, He was still honking the horn this time to the car in front of him, after a while he made a way with his irritating horn and moved forward by obstructing the vehicles coming in opposite direction. From that moment till I parked my bike in front of my home, I was hearing lot of continuous honking, not all the honks were necessary to warn. I remember well, When I was first learning the vehicles be it a bike or car, I was being miser in using the honks, My dad used to get frustrated with my alien behavior of not honking, he used to warn me next ...

My Movie Review - Srimanthudu

Image
HI Guys! I usually do not review any movie formally,Movies are big...with various departments and each putting in lot of efforts ...what we see for 2-2 and 1/2 hours might have taken effort of hundreds of people for months  ,it is so easy to judge the movie ,sitting in AC theater,Eating popcorn,sipping coke and tweeting inch by inch, Then why did i start writing this article? I watched this movie on the first day without reading a review and without even watching promos fully.. Going to a movie with expectation set to Zero on the first day is too dangerous.. if you do not connect with the movie or vise versa .. I was connected to the concept of the movie in the first instance, It is a very simple story line,not many star heroes dare to take it up,Hats off Mahesh Babbu sir! There are few dialogues and gestures in the movie which strike us somewhere, Returning back to the society is a nice line, We the people have become so sophisticated that we no longer put in our effor...
