Its already been four years now... what all we had been through together...huh!

hope to have better days ahead!

Sometimes it feels time just rolls down so quickly... and many times it seems to be frozen for me.

My name is Po...

I had just cut short my name from Poornima to Po. Someone just pinged me and said that my short name reminds him about a Psychiatrist and an International Author De bono. That guy coined the word Po and this guy who pinged me gave me the eitmology of this word.... :P So go ahead and read it... its interesting!

Meaning of Po: Beyond Yes and No is the basic primer of a revolutionary way of thinking. Edward de Bono maintains that most of us are trapped within the rigid confines of traditional thinking, limited by concepts which have developed simply for the purpose of arriving at the 'right' answer. While humanity has advanced technologically, in the realm of ideas and thought processes we are, he says, still using the restricted and the restricting concepts that have always been used.

He offers Po as a device for changing our ways of thinking: a method for approaching problems in a new and more creative way. It is the product of a research scientist who notably - and very entertainingly - thinks for himself.

I hope it is sufficient
hahahahah

जिए कैसे बंदा ?

जिन्दा कैसे रहे बंदा?
जब जिंदगी बनरहा फ़ासी का फंदा |
विशवास की चट्टान का टूट सा जाना | ऐसे ;
अब मुश्किल हैं उन टुकड़ों का वापस समेट्पाना | फिरसे ||
दिल इतना टूट गया जिसका,
की जैसे सबसे नाता छुट सा गया उसका |
सारे जज़्बात बेह्गाये | ऐसे ;
खौलता हुआ लावा चट्टान से निकला हो जैसे |
ए जज़्बात कैसे होंगे फिर से जिन्दा ?
जब खुद होगया वो बर्फ की तरह ठंडा |

ऐसे में क्या करें वो  बंदा ?

जिसकी आँखें हो गए हो अँधा |
क्या वो कभी उड़ पायेगा बनके परिंदा ?
या बन जायेगा किसी शिकारी का शिकंजा?

Certain things never change

Recently i had been to my hometown and i was really happy to see the same people around whom I am seeing more than a decade. Am glad that they have not changed. I feel like am on cloud number nine when am there. Its so peaceful.

Meet Yellavva our maid, am sorry i do not want to call her as my maid at all. She is as good as one of our family members. She is been helping us since more than a decade. You can just leave your house in her custody and find everything in place. The word faithful fails to explain her. I really run short to talk about her. She is nearly 65 and so active that even youngsters should be ashamed about themselves. She is so over active, she climbs tree, jumps compound walls and what not. She always walks miles together barefooted irrespective of any season. You can't even find a single gray hair and loss of tooth, she has good eye sight and hearing as well. Also knows so many home remedies for illness, takes care of our small garden without we being asking her. She is strong and tough like a stone. Touch wood she should be fit and fine for years to come. Its really hard to find a person like her to help us in these days.

She do not feel hesitated to ask tea whenever she feels like having. She calls my dad as her brother and he prepares tea for both of them many times. As my dad is teao-holic.. so my mom is tired of preparing tea for him... :)

She is also a great believer in God.

The puffed rice vendor, he is giving us the puffed rice more than a decade only.

The vegetable vendor, she even blessed me for my prosperity... how sweet of her. How many of them in metros will we can see vendors like this? I really feel good when I see all of them whenever i go there. They feel that they are seeing their daughter. Its really a nice feeling for me.. am obliged.. :)

Both of them are enjoying their pan, which they keep on chewing as and when they get time in between their work.

She selects the good chillies for us and gives the best.

Meet Akkamma, a maid lives her life by herself. I was surprised to see a mobile set in her hand and just took a pix of her when she was busy talking to someone. This one really depicts the changes happening.

It feels good to see certain things change and few remains the same. I know change is way of life.. So is Akkamma evidence here.

The life in metros is crazy.. no one is even bothered to ask their neighbors how they are doing.. :( I hope the people at least in small town should never ever change...!

No Work huh!

The software tools I work on are down, and am jobless since last Friday... and will be going on leave for a week or more... :( am afraid that I may have to be jobless.... eeww! I'm tired and sick of playing Farm Ville, FishVille and Cafe World my facebook.. :(

Now I think I should start believing that "whatever happens happens for the best".

Happy Vacation and Merry Christmas!!! to all my readers... :)

Poignant Ping... :'(

Suddenly one fine Morning He pings Her...

He: Hey
She: Hi, seeing after a long time
He: My wife saw your baby message
She: Oh!
He: She was asking me why you call me baby
She: What did you say to her
He: I had to convince her that you are my good friend
She: I did not do anything to spoil your relationship, you know that ha!
He: she is very possessive about me
She: Yes, i can understand her feelings
He: Am sorry I have to block you for sometime
She: ... what? what did I do?
He: nothing
She: You know me right?
He: Yes re...
She: Am sorry if anything might have bothered you
He: Why are you worried?
She: Yes I am
He: ok catch you later bye
She: Bye!

Later she remembers the days He used to call her and talk anything and everything under the sun. Now that She and He are married to someone else... its creating sticky situations. It was always Him who used to take initiative in talking She always tried kind of guiding Him in the right path. But unfortunately finally when She too fell in Love with Him, and now that He is dodging Her.... :(

Corollary: Extra Connubial Concern!.. ahem!

Its happening habitually now.. I wonder why... why people why???

OOOO....Li... Li.....Life is Crazy...ssss ;)
