Childhood Memories are I guess the best memories...Memories which we always cringe to re-live...Memories which I feel one can never be shy of...Memories which I believe are here to stay. And then you have in those Memories.....Your Childhood Friend..I term it My Chaddi Buddy!! Born in the same year,the same locality and the same family backgrounds..the buddy becomes your 1st playmate. The buddy is the reason your mother is forgotten for the day...

The Tough Gets Going!!! A phrase synonymous with all the sufferings, irritations, pains and all the things that make us cringe..

A tough person needs to move on...irrespective of how painful moving on is!! A tough person has to be an idol..A hero...irrespective of the fact th

Sonu Nigam's tweet on Azaan to Supreme Court verdict on Babri Masjid..things have happened this week which make me ponder,rethink and analyse whether we actually are a SECULAR state... 1.Supporting Minorities make u secular. 2. Bashing the largest religious populist sect makes u secular 3. Supporting a Fatwa makes you secular 4. Protest Hanging of a terrorist who belongs to minority (involved in parliament blasts) makes you secular. 5. Supporting Intolerance makes you secular. 6. Having Iftaar and no Diwali Dinner makes you secular. 7. Supporting religious fanatics visa vie  patriotism makes you secular. 8. Criticise ganesh mandal ke loudspeakers..but supporting Azaan makes you secular. 9. You can't have a Hindu vote bank. Supporting / Fielding a Muslim candidate makes you Secular. 10. Can have farmers  from a sect suffer..media won't highlight..support the suffering of another (MINORITY)sect...you are secular.. India...70 years old...World's largest democra

A Bit of This...A Bit of That, A light hearted attempt to poetrify my life..a life which is loved and gifted..yet to be lived!! Born as an adorable apple of the eye.. Turned out to be a Brat.

Fail once and that boss is always waiting to pull the underneath Mat.. Started doing well at Work... Realised so
