Which path to take??

Right or wrong?? Which path to take??
Can anything actually be defined as right or wrong? Anything which is wrong for one, is right in someone else's sensibility...People who cheat others, ill treat others, practice infidelity...we all just label them as the wrong doers. I am not speaking for them. I myself don't think that they are correct. But it is a fact that they do it, and the question is WHY? Why do they do it, even after in all their senses they know it is WRONG. Like all of us, even they have been taught since childhood, that all these things are wrong. They have their own reasons, it might be greed, selfishness, dissatisfaction with what they have or anything else. But they still do have a reason. And that, as well, may be right in their understanding.
Terrorists killing innocent people is wrong for whole of the world, but for the terrorists, it is so right, that they even lay down their lives for this cause.
The politicians and bureaucrats looting our nation's wealth...in sums that exceed more than our annual budget...WRONG for us...but SO right for them, that they are going to the extent of barbarism, fascism, denying the citizens of a DEMOCRATIC country, their fundamental rights and even saying that the reports from wikileaks are wrong (when in the whole world NO ONE is questioning their authenticity :-D), instead of saying that we will investigate the matter :-D. They can make a fool of themselves in front of the whole world, but still stand for what THEY think is right!!
People practicing infidelity has become so common nowadays. In spite of the fact, that this is forbidden EVERYWHERE. DEFINED as WRONG in bolds...Still for the people practicing it, it's a bliss!! A new love, some new spices added to their daily lives...As is said...the forbidden is always sweet, and there will always be people who WILL go for the forbidden, may be just for the experience of it or for the thrill of it.

There is NOTHING which is right or wrong. People decide their rights and wrongs. Everybody is surrounded with people who have different sensibilities of right or wrong, and each one is trying to prove themselves right...

The power of ONE

Whenever I am sitting alone, there are a million thoughts going across my mind, as rightly said, a women's mind can NEVER think about nothing :). And I often think about how life changes. What we were when we were kids, then we changed when we went to school...Again changed a lot when we went to college and after college life changes again...& this time too drastically to be compared to anything we experience till then.
So, I was just thinking about the defining moments that change our lives, and interestingly it occurred to me that the most major changes that we experience in our life happens in just one moment!! Although the preparations for it might be going on for like forever, but there is one single moment that defines the change. You can differentiate yourself before and after that moment.
Like, one second before, she was a lady, the next instant she's a mom.
One second before you say "I do", you are all on your own, no bindings, you are free, and the next instant you are married with lives connected to every decision you make.
One second you are with the person you love the most, and the next instance he's no more. He has closed his eyes forever.The very second when Hiroshima, Nagasaki happened, or when 9/11 or 7/11 or 26/11 happened, the world of thousands of people changed...Forever.
One second just an athlete, the other second world champion.
The one second when Dhoni hit the six, the next moment we were the world champions :).

It's interesting though that for all these turning points of our lives, we prepare for like ages, and the moment itself passes in a whiff. It happens so swiftly, that you are not even able to realize that it has already happened. Makes me really admire the script writer of these stories. He is truly a MASTERPIECE :).

The little joys of life

After too much of advices/ pushes/ conscience shouting I finally decided to write something...Although I don't exactly know what I am going to start with. In fact, that was one reason why I was not blogging even after so many people advising me to do so. I thought some magic will happen and I will get a Hrithik Roshan type debut...Which obviously didn't happen till now :P...Not that it has happened now...But just that I have realized that nothing of that sort is actually going to happen :)...
And with that one small realization, I have not gained any enlightenment...but definitely something has changed...First of course, I started writing this blog...which had been on my to do list for a bit toooooo long now :). And secondly, this has also told me that small things matter so much more in life.
It is raining today...And its a beautiful day...This reminds me of the rains in Pune. Pune also becomes very beautiful when it rains there. And as in most parts of India, we also experience power cuts when it rains heavily. No...these rains are not reminding me of the power cuts...because we are used to it :)...What it reminds me of is my mom preparing hot tea and pakodas...And we both feasting on it, while chatting about anything and everything. These rains remind me of our college days, where we used to sit in the hostel lobbies enjoying the refreshing breeze and the light drizzles, whiling away our time like anything, talking about ALL the nonsense things that we could.
I am staying a bit too far from my home for the past two years, and when I think of it in a whiff, these two years have been pretty boring and the llleeeeaaassstttt happening years of my life. But if I think of the small things, I realize that life is never really THAT boring as we see it to be. If only we understand and acknowledge the little happenings around us.
The most recent incident that comes to my mind is the India-Sri Lanka world cup finals :). Each of us was willing to get up at 4 in the morning, but nobody was willing to watch the match alone. So, we all got up at 4 & after quite a mayhem and confusion, we managed to gather at one of our friend's place. And the joy of India winning the world cup was never the same...it had increased SO manifolds :).
Whenever I am sitting alone, these are the things that bring a smile on my face. And I thank God for making all those people a part of my life because of whom I can smile, no matter where I am :).
