AI - Artificial Intelligence


Image result

Last week I was reading a book with subject about Science and religion. It touched some questions of where we “HUMANS” came from and where are “WE” heading?  A question, almost all of us would have wondered about in some point of our lives.

As I continued reading, I really got intrigued about the fact that how we are evolving at every step of life. Although we all have read or learnt about Darwins theory of Evolution, we never realize that it is a continuous process. And you and me, yes you and me are also part of this process.
As we are evolving as homo-sapiens, same time there is a new species of beings that are getting evolved in our world. And slowly we are being consumed by these species and we are turning into slaves to these species. It is no brainer that I am talking about Artificial Intelligence as the subject mentions it at subject line of this post. But how is this artificial intelligence taking over? Because technology is in our control.. Right?

I will tell why I wrote about it today…

In morning I was texting to a friend. Yesterday my phone fell and since then my phone has been acting funny. I realized that touch has gone very sensitive and when I touch one word to type, it was selecting 2-3 words surrounding that word. This was making texting difficult, so I started using suggestions shared by the google keyboard.

To my surprise, the words suggested are exactly what I generally use texting as per the person I am sending the message to.
For example, when I typed “I will go on.. “ suggestions were “the / a / Bike”. I was wondering why did it not offer me suggestions “car / bike / cycle”.
It is because I generally write that I go on bike, which is stored in its data as per my communication.
Well then I tried different combination which I generally use, my device suggested exactly what I would have written. However, when I inserted messages which I wrote first time or used word which I generally do not use, it suggested generic words.

It dawned to me that AI is not something which is coming in near future like we read in newspaper. Artificial Intelligence is there in our lives already. It is slowly evolving at every point, looking at us, learning about us and upgrading itself with each moment. World what we see today is believed to be result of millions of years evolution. But with time, even machines are evolving and slowly consuming us, making us crippled without them.

And there will be a day when we will reach a point that AI will be superior and our species will extinct. It will be like how speak about Neanderthals, 50 years down the line the future human machine will talk about us homo sapiens.


Ironic but true!!!

Rêves…


Rêves.. It’s a french word which means Dream. You will be wondering that why the title is in french. Well I will explain that by the end of this post.

Now I should bring you to the main context of this post i.e. Dream.

If we go by dictionary the meaning of Dream is “A series of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations occurring involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep.”

But is it so? Dreams are much more than that for us humans. They are our ambitions which we have inside us all the time. Dreams don’t die; they are there inside even when we think they can’t be achieved. They effect our lives alot as they control our emotions as we achieve them or lose them.

Now why out of blue I am writing about dreams?

To answer that, I will share you an incident that happened recently during one of my travels.
It was a busy morning as I reached Mumbai Airport to catch an early morning flight. During security check I was informed that there is a delay in take off by 30 minutes. So I decided to spend time in the food court area to have a cup of coffee.
I took a table from where I could see flights take off and land. I don’t know why but a family caught my attention. The table in front of me had a family consisting of 3. 2 aged parents and 1 son in his mid-twenties. As I sipped my coffee I noticed that all 3 were looking outside watching planes. The old man then looked at his wife and smiled. The smile had a sense of happiness, a smile that said something special was happening.
I thought they would be happy about going to vacation. As I was trying to give my own reasons to their smile, the young boy received a call and he moved a side to attend it. As the boy moved from the table, old man spoke to his wife “You know I always wanted to take you on a plane, but in our lives, we could never afford flying in a plane.”
“You gave me everything in life and it is enough for me. And now we are going also” The woman replied.
“But I always dreamt of us flying together. With the time, I had given up on this thought. But it seems that what you really wish, that do happen.”
Both of them smiled at each other and again started looking outside.
That small conversation that I overheard, made me think throughout my flight and till date as I write this post, I think about it.

Should we give up on our dreams? Or should we keep them safe and wait for them to happen. Because we do get bogged down when things are not happening like we expect. Are we not giving time to our dreams? Or should we be so obsessive about them?

Even though I don’t visit temples or believe in the deity worship, I do believe in the literature that all religions have. I have heard that Bhagvad gita has all answers to your questions. And when I looked for an answer for the question that was rattling me from inside, I remembered this

"tasmad asaktah satatam karyam karma samacara
asakto hy acaran karma param apnoti purushah"

It means “Go on efficiently doing your duty at all times without attachment. Doing work without attachment, a man attains the supreme.”
Inculcate the habit of being open to everything and being attached to nothing. Attachment does give strength to work and love beyond ourselves, but it also limits us and makes our journey and growth difficult, especially if the object of our desire is taken away from us.
Too much desire can be bad, as it turns into greed. Greed takes you away from your true calling and dream, be it to achieve, create or innovate.
Do not be super attached to your work, as it makes your journey as an entrepreneur difficult and closed. You cannot wear binoculars and run the rat race.
You have to keep an open mind about the ever-evolving changes, adapt to them. Keep a close eye on your goals but do not get obsessive and be open to accept changes as and when required.
This post is for all of us, who have lost hopes on things that did not go the way we wanted. Life has better things to happen and you have to just keep moving. Let’s not be obsessive about what we want but embrace what we get. Sometimes we miss to enjoy what we have because we are obsessed with what we are looking for. Dream but don’t get stuck at them. Live more and feel what you never dreamt off.And to end with, why title in French? Don’t hate me for this but I thought that having a French title will be more sophisticated and different ‘:-P’.

Your Dream is Your Signature


 

Your dream is your signature...

A quote that has always given a rush inside my body. A quote which gives birth to a thousand questions varying from who am i? to what will I leave behind?
In this world where you are one in the ocean what is that you leave back in this world?

Is it the your children? Your properties or something else?

World tells you to follow the path defined by them. You take birth, study hard, grow up, get a job, play safe, get married as you need company, have children and then get old and die.
All follow this and it is not wrong. But I do not want to follow the line. Is it wrong? I do not want to prove it to others but me only.

I do not want money in my bank account for a future I do not know but for now when I can spend it.
I would like to live like a human and enjoy this life gifted to me as a human. And I want at least one person to remember me for the things I did in life and not being the one in this crowd.

And if there is an afterworld, will you be satisfied with what you achieved or are we going to again find life as reasons for not achieving the success
For those who would argue that from doing big if I mean to build some monument or leave a property behind. No I don't want to any of that. I think you don't hav to do anything but live your dream and it could be anything that keeps you alive even when u r gone.

Sounds vague. For me too but then you come across people and life.
I have a close friend of mine who always talk about her father. I don’t think there would be a day when I have not heard atleast something she learnt from her father or how he was an awesome person.
I have not seen him but I think I know how wonderful that man would be. He not only gave them the best in terms of all materialistic amenities but he filled their souls also with love. He taught his daughter to be a leader. He gave his children a power to dream and follow them.

And I am talking about 15-20 years back when girls were still considered to be a burden on family. This man raised her daughter and son equally. To live head high and survive even in the toughest. I guess that was his dream and he achieved it.

Today he is not in this world but I believe he is alive. He left his signature in this world with his two kids and through them he is still alive. Or else i won't have learnt about such a wonderful human.
 Living this life depends on you. How you PROVE it to YOU and not to the WORLD.


How you leave a mark or live your dream is a question only you can answer.


As Malcolm Forbes rightly said, you cease to live when you stop dreaming.

Maybe It's Just Me...

Maybe it's just me, but you seem finally happy
I don't think I've seen your face just glow
Like a neon sign and maybe I should be alone for ever after,
Cause even though the nights are long
At least I'll make it another day...

Cause I can't live if you're not happy
I can't live if you cry, 
But I can live without you if it makes you smile

And maybe things got weird after all that went down
Things were oh so clear,
That I could never get the right
So tell me what your plans are
And tell me what you're doing
The only thing I'll hold against me is a picture of you tonight

Cause I can't live if you're not happy
I can't live if you cry, 
But I can live without you if it makes you smile
And I can't wait to see you rise 
And I can't wait for you to shine
But I can wait for you if all you need is...

Time for you to think things over
Time to talk the drama down
It's not a contest of who'll try harder
Or who'll cross the finish line

And I can't live if you're not happy
I can't live if you cry, 
But I can live without you if it makes you smile
And I can't wait to see you rise 
And I can't wait for you to shine
But I can wait for you if all you need is time

The Atheist in Me



"In the face of all that is so wrong with the world, the very worst thing you can do is survive. And yet you must survive. It is this dilemma that makes us believe and cling to the lie that we have a soul, and that there is a God who cares about its fate."


I had been a God fearing person and have always respected in the belief of the people and their religion. Since childhood I have been made to visit temples and stand in long Q's, as i saw people standing around me begging for their wishes to come true in front of some power whom they call God. But lately I tend to disagree with this concept called GOD. 

The quote mentioned above is a line which I read from a book which i was reading through and it stuck to me. Is it not true, the whole idea of this GOD and miracles is so fake and made up. The rules made by some people born long ago just to create a fear and run this world. We live in a world which is like a State of Fear. What I feel is that this world runs of fear and as a matter of fact, whoever has tried to overcome this fear has ruled in this world.  When it comes to GOD, we have a fear embedded inside our minds that we are being watched by some invisible force, who actually have hired an accountant and keeping records of the good and bad things one is doing. And based on that we will have our fates and life fixed. How convincing and easy it was to handle the state of affairs with this fear inside every living human being. 

Does it really happens? If that was the case, then I guess all the criminals across the world should have rotten to death, but that doesn't happen. But what we see is, some innocent people get killed under the rubble of illegal buildings, beneath the rich guys cars and then their kids roam across the streets as orphans. The world looks at them with hatred and punish them more. What wrong they did? The only mistake i could see is that they took birth in some poor family. 

This is a topic of debate and as I write this post, I know what all i am writing will be total rant, because whoever reading this will be having some fear in them about this thing called GOD. I somehow have lost the belief that there is some power which actually takes care of the world. Everything is in one's own hand, the power is inside you. You can't get peace sitting inside a temple if you have some major issue going in your life, while you can sleep peacefully in a scorching sun, if you are at peace from inside. The confidence to face the world comes within and nothing else can bring it until you have faith in your own self.

The world is blind and have its own angle to look at you. And for those who say that there some power actually, If that is the case and someone is actually managing the world then MAN, that person needs to improve because right now IT SUCK's!!!!

Maut Tu Ek Kavita Hai...

In 1971, when Indian Cinema was at verge of new dimension, a movie called Anand was released. A film about a man, who knows he is going to die, a man who knows that life had been unfair to him, but he then teaches the world how to live. I have always loved to sit and watch that movie again and again and always tried to live as per a dialogue in that movie "Zindagi lambi nahi, badi honi chahiye". We should not try to live longer but live life kingsize. 

Lately there was a phase when i wanted to live longer but then again I was not liking it, and then something happened in my life. Some losses teaches you many things and reminds you some forgotten lesson. And then i recall this poem of the same movie 

Maut tu ek kavita hai .. 
mujhse ek kavita ka vaadaa hai milegi mujhko .. 


doobti nabzon mein jab dard ko neend aane lage 
zard saa cheharaa liye chaand ufak tak pahunche 
din abhi paani mein ho, raat kinaare ke kareeb 
na abhi andheraa ho, na ujaalaa ho, na raat na din 
jism jab khatam ho aur rooh ko saans aaye . 

mujhse ek kavita ka vaadaa hai milegii mujhko .. 

Translation


Death you are a poem.. 
a poem has made pact with me that I shall meet her .. 

when drowning pulse will bring on painful sleep 
when Moon carrying her yellow face will reach horizon 
when days still in water and night close to shore 
there is not yet darkness, neither light, not night not day 
when body is gone and soul still breaths. 

a poem has made pact with me that I shall meet her ..



It reminds me that Death is something that will come. So instead of trying to live longer in the way I want, I am accepting what is coming and going to live the way I used to. And will wait for my poem to end. ;-)

Tell Me O' Khudaa!!!


Statuatory Warning - Readers are informed that this post is written at 2 AM by the writer as he is sipping his 6th cup of black coffee mixed with shot of Cogniac. In short he is drunk and the pot may make no sene. Moreover letter 'S' on his keyboard is broken so there may be some 'S' mising inbetween. Readers can avoid if they want.

Ye jo world hai na world, this is made up of 2 kinds of people. How many kind?? 2 kinds, one who are good and one who are bad. Well the general misconception is that if you do good, then you get heaven after death, while the bad people end up rotting in hell. Ok, sounds good but that is after death. What about before death???
 
My mom ued to tell me, that be good boy, help people, love the beings around you and you will be loved and cared. Really?? Naah, I don't think this world runs on that track at all. If it did, then all the billionaires whom we know, would have been having white clean sheets of their life. Infact every famous man in the world has a dark history. And it seems like people with bad reputation are only respected. Make a controversy and you are looked up by everyone. You guys don't believe me?? Well let me explain...
 
Let us go back to our college days (those who are in college, open your eyes). College is a place where you will find 2 type of guys, the good guys, the geeks or sweet guys and then the show offs or the hunk kinds. Well most of the girls in college are attracted towards the hunk, who actually takes advantage of these so caled smart girls. And the good guys are left with their shoulders which comes in use when girls realise that the Hunk was just fooling around. Now the good guy thinks that now he has a chance but Naah. Then also there is a very less chance of them to get in, because by then Girls says "I don't think i can be in relationship with any guy. All guys are same." hahaha.... the good guys have no chance.
 
Now do you believe me?? Still No?
Oh God!! You need more examples.
Ok then lets go to our own indian mythology. Ok firstly, i do respect our mythology and the names I am mentioning are with due respect, and with no intentions to hurt religious sentiments.
 
Let us take an example of Lord Rama and Shree Krishna. Both avataars of Maha Vishnu. Lord Rama, the good guy, an obedient son, a good husband, a fair king whereas our favourate Krishna bhagwaan, the prankster, eve teaser or u can say the hunk guy. Ram ji was obedient, and he was sent to exile, one man woman that too was kidnapped, blamed on, half of the time was made to stay away from her. Anyone could come and say things to him and as a fair king he used to accept them, be it taking agni pariksha of wife or parting away from his kids. On the other hand our krishna bhagwaan, he used to steal since childhood but was loved by everyone, the guy had so many gopis, some 16K wives but still every woman of that era adored him. He practically told the cheat codes to Pandavas to win the battle and still he was much more famous and greater when compared to Shri Ram. You can see through it in practical life also, for rama no one generally says bhagwaan but for shri krishna bhagwan word comes automatically from our mouth. But if you look at the good and bad scale, Shri Ram has an upper hand.
So now tell me oh almighty, is being good really practical or somewhere one can be bad. I am not saying that be bad, do all the shit crap things but being good and nice is one foolish act. And if you still worry about the afterdeath, I say HELLYA!!!!

Life - What is it all about?

Sometimes in life, a thought comes to you, making you realize things about life. The funny fact about these thoughts are, that these things you might have heard so many times, but that realization which you have now brings a lot of change in you. 

Today a similar thought pooped (:-P) in my head and i asked me that what is life? It is a common question we all ask to ourselves at some point of life. I think my point came.

Life, Is it about achievements, the money you earn, or is it about being good at your work, or is it about being famous and rich? What is it all about? Is it really the materialistic aspect that makes your life fun? 27 years down the lane of my life there are many things I did, they surely make me happy when I think about them. But the real happiness i feel is when I recall the moments I had with my friends, thinking about the time I spent with someone, even for 15 minutes when there was not even a conversation. The funny incidents, the pranks, the fun, the fights with my sister, the leg pulling of my brother, ragging of a junior who ended up being a friend, a google search that lead me to find a very wonderful person, when I think of them, it is actually that thing which makes me happy. The saturdays at my cousins, the funny arguments I had with my bhabhi, the plans to escape office to go to friends party and many more like them.  These thoughts fills my heart with sheer joy, and then a wish comes out from my heart, to go back and relive them somehow. 

I don't understand why we humans are so materialistic? Why can't we look at the life simply, why is it important that if you love someone, you need her or him to love you back? Why does your work takes over your life, when work is supposed to be a part of your life? Why do we end up forgetting our old buddies while we we keep on adding more facebook friends. Why "I am there" has turned into just a phrase while you are not there when you are most needed? Why relationships have turned into burden which are supposed to be the support system of tough times. Are we actually living life or wasting the best gift we  have?

I feel that life is all about the happy moments you earn in your life. The moments which you will recall and a smile will come on your face, as you will go into your last sleep. I wish to get wealthy with those moments and that is the prayer that comes from my heart.

To end I would quote Rajesh Khanna from Anand "Zindagi badi honi chahiye, lambi nahi." (Life should be big, not long)

Pilots of the Green Coloured 3 Wheelers

As I wrote in my previous post, I have been travelling a lot for my work. I sometimes feel like, i should not rent a house anymore in Mumbai, because maximum time I am in different cities. And during my travel the people I meet the most is auto walaas. Yes the green coloured Indian 3 wheeler Pilots are the people I interact the most during my travel. Well the funny things is, even though every Pilot is doing the same work, but the style, the attitude and the charges are different. Let me try to explain what i mean -

In Mumbai -

Stopping an auto - You just have to whistle, and for those who can't whistle, just make a sound like "pooch" and any auto guy, driving at any speed will stop for you. Very quick, they will just ask, where and then a nod. You have to be quick and sharp eyed to understand what that nod meant. It may be sit or may be a naah. There is a very thin line of difference in between both the signs, one is a slight turn of neck, right to left directing us to go inside the while a No is also a nod but a very quick movement to both side.

However if its a yes, then you don't have to argue how much money and blah blah. You pay metered charge as per the law.

In Bangalore -

You have to wave a big hand to stop them. No meter is fixed in the autos at all. You have to accept the fact and go with the wind. And these guys seem to only talk in multiple of hundereds. Any destination you say, they will say the charge in multiple of hundreds. You are not allowed inside the auto unless you are totally sure of the location. They want you to be sure where you want to go or else you will be hearing alot of kannada you don't know, if you get confused when you near the destination and you take time in locating the exact drop place.

Another key aspect is that even if you bargain and bring the price in an odd number (i.e. not in multiple of hundereds) you need to have the exact change to pay. Don't expect them to have change, so if you had to pay INR 70/- and you don't 70 with you, you end up paying INR 100/- because they won't be having loose cash. Very strategically they play their cards. ;-)

In Chennai -

Here they stop automatically, if you stand on edge of the road. Sometimes even if you are just standing, 2-3 autos may approach you. But these guys are also not less than their neighbours.   Again similar to Bangalore, they don't use meter fare. Meter is just a decoration in their planes and you have to pay what they want. But still better as they agree in charging in odd numbers also, even if they begin with a hundered. Here you have to be very smart and you need to bargain alot. So if they say 100, you say 50 and then you close the deal by 70.

They are also up to date about the happenings around, so if you bargain alot on fare, they answer you "Yenna Saar, Petrol Embaadu ruwa..."

and when you say "What" with your confused expressions they reply "Petrol eighty rupees saar. This long, only one way, you go round and come." I still don't know, how many one ways chennai have. LOL

Secondly, whatever you do, even if you tell them you don't know Tamil, they will answer you in Tamil only. So brush up a bit of Tamil when you are there.

In Hyderabad -

Well these guys are a little better. They answer you in Hindi and also sometimes in english. You can talk to them while driving as he will update you about the locations around. He may enquire your full history, i.e. where you came from, where you want to go, have you seen hyderabad earlier and many more stuff. But still they are better people. I met a bunch of auto guys with whom I interacted. We spoke about stuff like biryanis, haleem and why foreigners come and click all these photos of autowalas, chaiwalas and beggars.

The only thing you have to do is to persue them to use the meter. The meter is fixed in the auto, but still when you ask for fare, they give you a number. Then you have to point your finger on the meter and then he might say, "Same hai saab." (It is same sir)
But if you insist again, they will put on the meter.

Another thing is, Hyderabadi auto guys keep their autos sophisticated. High backrest seats, good speakers, disco lightings inside. I travelled in one of them and while talking, I requested him to show me the speakers effect. And he played a telugu song of Allu Arjun sung by Adnan Sami.



But one thing is common in every autowala across the states of India. That they work hard, driving around the lanes in scorching sun, heavy rain or in bad health to earn for their family, carrying us, the stuff of ours and still in the end they have a smiling face most of the time.

Keep in mind about the attitudes when you are in these cities. Hope you guys may find it useful.

Mumbai Chronicle - 26 May'2012


What’s happening to me guys? How can I be so irresponsible? It’s the 5th day of me in a city that is for movies and I haven’t yet checked out even one theatre in the city. Moreover it was a Saturday, it’s a weekend and there needs to be a pilaaan.

Nearest theatre from our place, I asked myself? Cinemax Sion.
Which movie which everyone (Sujith bhai, brother in law n sister) will agree in first proposal without much of persuasion required. I think some mallu flick which they will like, and lucky I was that there was 22 Female Kottayam running in Cinemax Sion.

“Didi, would you like to watch 22 Female Kottayam?”
“Yeah. I heard it is a good movie. I don’t mind. Ask your jeeju (brother in law) if he is free?”
“Jeeju, Cinemax is playing 22 Female Kottayam for just 3 days. Let us go for afternoon show today?”
“Is it good? I haven’t much heard about it.”
“Oh! It is really doing well in Kerala. Let’s go, I will book the tickets online.”

Well didn’t have to stress much and they agreed and our Sujith bhai is always ready for movies. So on the first weekend, in Mumbai, I checked out the theatres in Mumbai. Well this specific screen was small as it was a mini theatre that they created for regional movies and was quite small. Little against my shaan but then initially I don’t want Mumbaikars to feel the heat. Hehehe....

The movie got over by 4 we were all at home, but how can we end a weekend like this without reaching back home by night. So I and Sujith Bhai went to CST, just like that. Well I have heard someone telling me that cities get more beautiful in the night and I also think it’s true. Same was the case as we walked through the old corridors of big buildings that took us all the way to Gateway of India. Being a weekend it was crowded with feriwaalaas who displayed their products at the roadsides. The crowd was huge as I could see people checking out things and doing negotiations to get the best deals for them. We reached Fashion street where I felt the world comes to get latest trends at the cheapest price. Well you name a brand and they bring out the copy of the original at the very next minute. CK, Giordiano, Allen Solly, You name it and you get it there and the fashion trends are also amazing. As we reached we saw Gateway of India and a ocean of human faces around it. Families, lovers, friends everyone was out there enjoying their good times and making maximum out of weekend. 

Well for me it was my camera which was on work while Sujith Bhai walked along talking over phones, answering his big fan following. Well I won’t pull much on our padhyatra. Check out the pictures which didn’t come out the way I wanted them to come. However I will meanwhile look forward something more interesting in my Mumbai journey.

What's this... ?

Mumbai Chronicle - 23 May 2012


On the second day of our stay in Mumbai, we were introduced to the Don of the building where currently we are staying. Ramlal as I christened him, because no one seems to call him by any name, may be because they all consider it waste of time to enquire and name of living beings staying around.

However I enquired and as per reliable sources, Ramlal came to this building probably a couple of years back and has been staying here and restored peace and calmness in the area from the various stray goons like him. As soon as you enter the building, you will find him resting peacefully on the stairs undisturbed by the movement of the residents. He rests at his favourite spots ignoring all the worldly matters that are happening and people also make sure not to disturb Ramlal while they pass by him. One funny incident that my elder sister (it’s her house where we are staying) shared that one day while she was getting down the stairs, busy searching something in her bag, she accidently steeped on Ramlal who was resting on the stairs. Since that day, Ramlal makes sure that he gets up from his rest and gives way to my sister.


With my keen interest in Ramlal my bada bhai, Sujith Bhai has warned me that
“he may be quiet but if he changes the mind I can be in trouble and be visiting doctors”. However i feel that he cool enough because when I requested him for a click for which he posed without showing any tantrums.

Will be Waiting...


I never forced you to love me..

I never flirted with someone to make you angry..

I never warned you to not to speak with others..

I never said, don't do the thing you want..

You Are Like A Bird For Me,
Free to fly away anywhere you want to go...
But
the only thing you must know,
Wherever you will go,
When you decide to come back...

You will find me here waiting for YOU ♥♥

Friends r Forever

Have you ever felt that our life is a movie which is being captured on a show reel inside our brain cam? No?? If not then why sometimes your whole life plays in front of you as a movie reminding you about the moments and faces that have touched your life? I don’t have answer for that why but this show reel lead me to write this post on some faces I saw whom I call FRIENDS.

Friendship is one amazing thing that happens to us in our lives and we cherish those stories till the time we live. But all these stories are not the same like each other. Some friends just go away not to come back, some go, come back, then again go and again come back while some stay forever. My post is dedicated to all those friends, who were there, are there and who may or may not be there.
I would begin with thanking those Friends who came to my life, gave me some moments to cherish and are now in some part of this world busy with their lives. Thank you for the fun time, the time which will be in my mind for my whole life, the time which are in my photo albums which I look at while a tear drops out from my eye. You guys have taught me a very important lesson of life by making me realize that life has its own course and we have to move on. I wish you all the success and pray for your good health and prosperity. And I still hope you guys come to the second category of friends who come and go because you are missed a lot.
For my Friends, who are there as per the facility, LOL. What I mean is those who come, go and come. It is not a complaining tone and I really love you guys because you keep on coming back. This shows me that you have love for me which brings you back every time you miss me. You make me realize that things change, work over powers emotions but in the end we all are humane and we all need friends and people for us to live with. You guys help me to believe to have faith in everything in life. What you think has gone can always come back and this is what I learn from you. I cherish the moment when I get a call from you when I totally don’t expect it. The surprise factor is always there that tickles me. Like a leap year, whenever I meet you I find a day added in you. And I will keep on waiting for you because I believe you will come again. And my prayers are always there for you.
And now for those buddies who have been there for a long time. What should I say to you guys?? You are my lifeline and I am lucky to have you with me. I mean god gave you so much of patience and grit to bear a pain like me and that too for such a long time. Life, time, family, jobs nothing weakens our bond. I know me and I am one crazy guy to be handled and you people do it without complaining. You make me believe in God because if there was no power like him, I won’t have people like you in my life. I can’t imagine a life without you guys and I don’t have any words to express what I feel about you. I cherish the every moment with you and always look forward for the time we all get together. Even in different locations across the globe I feel that you people are always next to me. And I am thankful to God for having such people in my life. I consider myself lucky because people generally have 1 or 2 friends like this but I have more.
And In the end I want to mention to those friends whom I have been neglecting. Sorry yaar, I love you guys
and I have no reason to treat you like this. I really love you people and you are always in my mind, it’s just that I am too dumb and lazy to be precise to pick up the phone and give a call to you. Now also I am writing the post instead of giving you a call. I promise I am going to that and you will be hearing from me very soon. You people teach me that whatever way people treat you, you should be nice to them because you are nicer and better than them.
Dear readers who all have reached till this line, has touched my life in some way and I thank you for visiting this blog. This post is dedicated to all my friends because Friendship is something very precious and I really want to tell them they are special and they make me special. And I want to tell them that even if we haven’t been in touch, even if we haven’t spoken for long, you still are my friend and will always be my friend.

Recalling 2011...

Its 2012 now, a year which as per some people will be the last year of this world. I don't know if it is true or not, but when it comes to me, i look forward to it positivly without expecting what will happen. Expectations when kept at lowest always brings peace and happiness when you do more than that.



2011 was something in which things happened for me first time in life. 2011 was filled with weddings, birthdays, events and some good byes. There were bad moments, which i don't recall much because i was told by someone that its the Happy Moments that stays and rest all vanishes with time. So i am letting the bad moments go away and just holding the sweet moments I had. Some of them which i am going to share here as a note for me to read and relive those moments.

WELCOME 2011...

2011 started on a very fun note, as it was first time after me moving to Qatar, i had people around me to celeberate New Year Eve. Avinash was also in country, and we had 3 senior people from our office with us at our place. It was a long night resulting to late punch-in at office. So year began with masti.

My Birthday...

People across the globe are confused about my date of birth due to different DOB's i have on my passport, certificates & Birth certificate. And i also don't help them by telling different dates to different people. LOLZ... As a result people start calling from 21st and calls continue till 23rd of March every year. Since 2 years Avi was watching it and this time he planned to teach me a lesson. I ended up cutting 4 cakes in 3 different parties. Who does that...?? But it was fun and made me feel good about me.

Avi's Wedding & Chandigarh Trip...

Finally the day came, when Avinash decided to settle down. It is always good to see friends getting serious about life and looking ahead. My Delhi visit to attend his wedding followed by my Chandigarh Visit was a total fun plan. 2 days of delhi, where met new people, made some good friends and top of it, was part of my buddy's happy moments. God Bless the couple with all the happiness.

Rahul Bhai's Wedding...

It was a long wait but finally it happened. My big brother found a perfect match and decided to tie a knot. His wedding gave me a very sweet bhabhi (more kinda sister now) who now gives me company in planning my mess while i am in Qatar. Someone with whom i share all my crazy ideas and she supports me with them. Hahahaa.... and moreover it was fun to fly down to kerala, meet family and also be a part of wedding, where you are busy with the activities. Moreover, i was the official DJ in the wedding.. LOLZ... that was fun as i killed people with boring music.

The count increased...

It started on a business note when i had hired a bunch of youngsters for a Nokia Event. Well didn't realise but these people became close pals for whom only prayers come out. One kid reminded me of my cuzin sis back in india, and when i told her, i realised i just made a bonding with her. Not related by any means, but still i found a sister in Qatar. And found couple of friends who are too cool and sweet at same time to hangout with me... They are another chapter of my life which i will remember.

Buying My Canon Cam...

The dream of owning a DSLR camera was there in heart for long time now but situation was never compatible for me to buy it. Finally a day came, when i finally had the money and a situation to use that money for my purchase. One of the very rare occassion when i spend money on what i want. A feel of satisfaction and then the fun of clicking, its priceless.

Dream finally achieved...

When i started my career at the age of 19, i had 2 goals in mind. To get my parents retired and to build a house for them in their place. First one was achieved 5 years back and the second was the difficult one. It took me a long time, but finally the day came when we finally moved into our new house. For me its a house of dreams, where i see my parents settled and relaxed, my nieces and nephews coming and njoiin their vacations, a place where i could go and spend my weeklong holidays. The feeling of fulfilling that task really makes me feel lighter and happier.

It also was a year when some people moved out Qatar leaving me alone for the time, but again i am not alone, because i have someone with me always. God has always taken care that even through tough times i stand and try to smile. 2011 taught me to be positive, believe in me and my dreams and to think from heart. Taking those points i move ahead for a better 2012 where i am going to take some risks. Hoping for only good, even in bad, praying for good for everyone, i continue my journey called Life.

I have heard that love should be something extra ordinary in this ordinary life. If you ask me that what love is, I can’t explain. But I do believe it is something which makes you just wants to live for someone else. It can be for you family, your friends and some times for some stranger.

So how do you know you are in love? Well I don’t know, at all. Neither I am writing this post to explain what love is? It’s a question that popped up in my head, and a question many people ask. Some people say they know, some are like me who say I don’t. But we all do believe that Love is something that is there in this human life. You might be thinking that why all of a sudden, I am writing on Love. Is it because I am in love? Well let me answer in a way that today I am writing because I wanted to write on this topic. All the way I am always in love with my life, my family, friends and yeah won’t deny that there is some special one. But let us keep it that way for the time.

Well generally Love is commonly used and discussed when it comes to a person who is unknown or have no relation with you but still you want that person to be happy and will do anything for his/her smile. One thing I know, that this feel is something no one can explain but this whole feel makes you very happy and makes you have a big wide smile even when you are in deep shit.

Writing about love, I would give my point of view about love. Unlike the latest trend, I follow the old school of Love, where you meet a person, whom you meet and slowly you realize that yeah he/she is perfect. Although that never means that he/she should love you back the same way. But then I feel happy that at least I found someone who I think is the One. Some years back, I used to think that love happen only ones, and if you lose it, you don’t fall in it again. But sometimes you find someone who sweeps you from your feet and you just skip your heart beat.

For me, the person I love needs not to be perfect because no one is perfect in this world. What matters is that she is happy, even if it is with some one else. Yeah people say it is easy to say, but again, nothing in life is easy. But if you really love a person, and it demands sacrifice or pain, it is worth it. Yeah Life is not charity but again, for me Love suppresses every rule in this world. And if the person accepts my love, then the motto is to be true to every word I have said to her.

Well that was my take on Love… What’s yours…??

Jaise Har Ek Friend Zaroori Hota hai, Vaise Har ek Boss Khadoos hota hai...!!!

Chai Ke Liye Jaise Toast Hota Hai
Vaise Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota Hai
Aise Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota Hai

Koi Subah Paanch Baje Neend Se Jagaye
Koi Raat Ko Teen Baje tak kaam Karwaye
Ek Teri Kadki Mein increment Kare
Aur Ek Tere incentive Mein deduction Kare

Koi Nature Se sweet.. KKoi Ghost Hota Hai..
Par Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota Hai

Ek thoda kaam de aur khud bhi Kare
Ek sirf kaam de Aur khud kuch na Kare

Office Ka Koi Ghoomta Phirta Satellite
Koi Saath Rahe To karde Sab Alright
Koi Effortless, Koi Forced Hota Hai
Lekin Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota hai

Ek Tere Idea Ko Apna Bataye
Aur Ek Tera Target Har Month Badhaye
Koi Nature Se Sadu, Koi Host Hota Hai
Par Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota Hai…

Senior Boss, Junior Boss
Ye Boss, Wo Boss…
Janey kaun Kaun Se Hain Yahan Pe Boss…
Gin Gin Ke Naam Bheja Roast Hota Hai
Par Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota Hai
Lekin Har Ek Boss Khadoos Hota Hai

HAR EK BOSS KHADOOS HAI YAAR
