HISTORIC TRIUMPH OVER SOUTH AFRICA

I can't resist myself to write about the historic triumph that indians had achieved over south africa in Twenty20 world cup ,.Indians have a crucial match yesterday but the same moron feeling stucked in us that they can't win as mindblowing ecstatic form those south africans showed throughout the tournament.
So as usual we came to office without any preplanned notion that we have to watch the match , My roomate who was a movie as well as cricket freak was surprisingly very pessimistic that india can any how will make it to semifinals. After spending some 7-9 hours in office as a robotic life we infact i came back to home hoping that indians will bat first , and was eagerly waiting for the call from kuldeep my office(Droll), as lat as his call came i was half boozed , and after hearing the score , the only pinch of enthuasiam went off like a ash flew in a storm of socking news
Dada as usual make me believe that movie is the right option than to watch cricket, so hoping that some miracle could lead the indians to semifinals we started for movie , then suddenly again my droll friend called me up after an hour , we surprised , bewildered!!!!! Is this is the same team whom we thought can't win a single match in group eight now leading his way proudly to the semifinals as group topper ,we ran our bike to his house so that we can have a glimspe of this victory , but as soon as we reached there again southafricans were recovering and mood in our room was fluctuating like any thing , any how we were consoling each other that still only few overs to go , and our ecstasy found no limit as soon as india suprressed southafricans,,South africans worldcup jinx became india's luck we can say so.
But no body can deny the fact that indians have produced during this match,Really it seems that the CHAK DE INDIA was about to go on the field , HIP HIP HURREY Kudo's to indian team , A grand cheers to all indian cricket fans

MY 1st MEETING

When I first met Anandan I was struck with amazement at the whole world that he presented before me. He spoke of things I had never heard of; of dreams he had and willingly shared. He told me everything about himself and more. He tried to connect in a way I truly admire. I still remember that day as clearly as this moment. The time spent was probably a few hours but those hours presented a whole new world to me. Where I wondered and questioned myself and my true feelings for people I knew. It struck a strange cord when I tried to imagine things the way he did.
And that was when I asked myself why we stooped to adjust, to accept what we got without questioning the reason and without retaliating when we got what we did not deserve. I don’t claim to be chaste but neither do I claim to be a prostitute who chooses to be what she is. I say this because I do know people who are forced into the act at a young age, some who are fascinated and take it up voluntarily and others because they feel it’s the easy way out. A lot of value is laid on love and when I saw pretty woman for the first time I was intrigued. Because so many times we brush off so many people because of the life they lead or because of what they do. We set standards and try hard to reach there but do we really know what goes on behind that extremely beautiful, serene face of theirs.
Do I know for sure if what u feel is happiness and if your happiness is not going to be my unhappiness?
Do I seek pleasure in your pleasure or do I seek my own and cause you pain?
These are questions I ask myself time and time again. Do I live with you not knowing its you I live with or that pale shallow ghost of yours that your eyes betray?
Do I gain by giving you your will and accept it or do I let you know that it doesn’t work that way… It pains when u hold me too tight. But that pain is my pleasure. Do you know that? And knowing that can u accept it?
I had been through a phase in my life when I felt I made a wrong choice but i trusted that at the end of that experience I would find myself. And I did! I found what I was made of what I wanted from life at this instant. Rather I was living in the “now”… I meet people and I listen to them and sometimes I speak to them. With a few of them, I converse and those conversations I treasure…
