Finally managed to get myself out of bed this morning ... Maybe the weather had something to do with my laziness....
But it didn't take long for the routine to kick in ...
Brushed
Walked into the kitchen saw the cup of tea ready ... Popped it into the microwave and got got down checking my phone and emails .. Got to google news ... browsed thru the happenings as i lit up one and sipped on my chai ..
Had the urge to lite another one up but i know she would kill me if i did that ... walked upto the closet and put on my jacket ... walked upto the fire escape as i pulled up the blinds and raised the window a cool breeze blew my way .... i closed my eyes and just let it blow threw me ... as i opened my eyes ... i felt like the energizer bunny :)
Nature maybe does have its effect on me ... as i climbed outside the window and sat on the fire esacape .. the usually visible manhatten skyline dissappered under the cloud cover ... asif it never exisited .... Felt like maybe another world existed beyond those clouds .. a world i could relate to for a while ...and maybe can in many ways till date ...
i don't know if the past 6 months in mumbai was a dream or the years i spent in new york prior to the move back to mumbai ... or these past 3 weeks in new york ..
As much as i would like things to be different around me in alot of areas ... Sometimes one needs to accept and embrace reality no matter how much the bitch bites ...

Another Forward...
A interesting story that hit my mailbox a few weeks ago ..
Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.
The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter,
"Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river."
The little girl said,
"No, Dad. You hold my hand."
"What's the difference?"
Asked the puzzled father.
"There's a big difference,"
replied the little girl.
"If I hold your hand and something happens to me,
chances are that I may let your hand go.
But if you hold my hand,
I know for sure that no matter what happens,
you will never let my hand go."
In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond.
So hold the hand of the person who loves you,
rather than expecting them to hold yours...

Walls We Build..
The past couple of weeks have been interesting in some ways... i could see a bunch of my intuitions come true
What those intuitions were is a different story all together ...
A few months back i had put down a few thoughts on the human defense mechanism... Since then not much has changed i still see people putting up new walls around them and taking down some if not all old walls .. i do that too a times but try and make sure it need not apply to people who may be close to me or people i am just getting to know ..
Why ? well the answer is simple
The chances of two people sharing the same tastes in all aspects of life are slim to none.. i am sure everyone agrees to this ... its not a perfect world
Similarly every individuals action, reaction , words , thoughts in a particular situation or towards a person may also vary ...
One lays down walls based on their experiences in life ... perfectly normal human nature ...
But keeping in mind the uniqueness of every individual doesn't it make it a little unfair to make all people climb walls that were created by no contribution of their own ...
Does that make one Selfish ? or Plain Foolish ? i do not know
But i do know alot of good things fade away till they actually get across these walls .. Life always is a path made up of an individuals choices ...
