People have strange attitude towards love marriage n arranged .. What is this .. ? 

When i told one of my friends - Hey i like someone .. we're seriously planning to get engaged.. gotta speak to my folks. He says with a big alarming voice -'' HEY WAIT ! .. how long do u know each other ?? only 3 months ?? y don't u wait n reconsider before going ahead.. '' 

But the same if i had told him , my parents have seen a guy fr me . his reaction would have been entirely different - ''wow ! really ? tats a grt news ! what's he doing ? ..when is the marriage? .. don't wait for long, get married soon .. blah blah .. ''.  Irony is ppl are fine with the fact that  i wud be ideally getting married to a total stranger ; but they have a hitch if i wanna join hands with a person i know fr more than 90 days ...  what the heck ??  

yeh kahan ka logic hai bhai ?? 

Killing Time

A whole week has sped away doing nuthing .. when was the last time ever i spent a week killing time like this ? oh no , i ain't a very active person .. in fact half my life time i've done nuthing fruitful n now i'm still killing time regretting for all those times killed by me .. and finally it has left me to do absolutely nuthing and end up in writing a blog ?? 

i was never good @ writing stuffs.. ask me to express in words n i'd do fr a whole day .. but writing ? now  i curse myself for not concentrating on my english classes back @ school .. 

okay so what have i done today ? how much can i keep orkutting , facebooking and keep downloading ? but then life was much more fruitful without the days of internet and mobile phones.. way back in 1990's ..what were all ths ppl doing who have glued themslvs to the virtual world now ? 

ok forget 90's.. how about those olden golden days ..  

i have a wish .. to go fishing.. the proper fishing :) takes me back to school vacations when @ palakkad i used to try catching few fishes in the pond rite in front of our house thr along wd my sisters... n yes we succeeded too.. :) Every morning was awaited with so much of excitement to go to the pond , bathing n fishing.. tats where my swimming lessons used to happen , fluttering around like a duck ! :) 

things have changed now. The water in the pond is polluted n so has our hearts .. the joy of meeting cousins during the long vacations has vanished as we grew up .. :( Its got limited to meeting up @ family functions and a 'hi, how r u ? so wat u do these days.. ok bye ' .

Gone are the days when we used to remember each other's b'days or exchange plesantaries on onam, vishu etc . if this is the case with us, how wud the upcoming generation be .. hmm ! 

To truly love something, you must first give it a chance to fail. If it survives, it is going to be stronger than ever. Distance is pure proof of this, and forever we will love if we survive.

Yaadein..

This is my first blog .. n i'd love to dedicate the following lines which i came across to all the special ones in my life....

Years have sped by time has flown,

To forget you -that is what i had sworn,

To wipe off your memories fro my heart,

To live on, knowing that we are poles apart.

But often on silent, lonely nights,

When the moon is shining bright,

Your thoughts come steathily to my mind

And prod other memories left far behind

Of times we had, both good n bad

Of tears we shared and fun we had!

But what went wrong, i have no clue

But as long as it lasted, i know it was true

You have touched my life in many ways,

I try explaining, but just cannot say

But you have moved on and so must i

Must accept the truth, though with a sigh

Time heals all wounds, but not this one

The scar remains, the harm is done

Memories are to be treasured, or so they say

That's why you remain in my heart to

This very day..
