LOVE THY PEOPLE AS THEY ARE!!!!

Lemme start by asking a simple question-


How many times does it happen that you whine about a particular trait in your friends and people around you and often ended up bitching about the person that this or that habit of him/her you cannot stand? Or this kind of person you do not like or that kind of people you like. It’s in the human nature to always strive for better than before. But why do we neglect the importance of what all we have now? How better would be the world if we love what we already possess in terms of humans and appreciate all good in them than criticize? For, it's sheer a wastage of moments that are given to us and are meant only to live and cherish it with love. Since last few days, I have been keenly observing, how the differences cause a jerk in a relationship be it with your friends or anyone, therefore misery of thoughts. I came to the point that tells only a solution that is “Acceptance”. If you say, you love someone, then love him or her as they are. Why do you even want them to change for you? Why do you want them to behave in accords of your likings or some people sees it in the views of status quota? Be proud of people you are blessed to be with, no matter than whether they stand upto your intellectualites or status or your so called image in the society( there are many, who more than being themselves, always try to be in the good books of the society and behave accordingly, then for good or bad, hence decepting self as well as people around). Make them feel the same, that you love them for what they are and proud of having them in your life.Why do you always seek approvals of being liked by others? This very desire drifts you away from yourself. The greatest bliss is in loving yourself as you are, and when one tries to break that supposedly universal truth, things start turning for wrongs and causes unhappiness to not only thyself but the world around you. Believe me! And then nothing seems to be going right! The society is born in order to help or many a times distract you from being what you are borne to be, and hence evolution of self, good or bad! The point is, why should you be the part of that society that prevents one from being in bliss of loving oneself. I have observed that it seems to have become a trend to criticize things and people, sometimes for no reason, just to be in the categories of intellectuals, hence making fools of self because there is no such categories. If I say I love my friends and people, I love them as they are. I never want them to change themselves for me but only improve and evolve with time. And even if that good change in them goes against me, I happily accept that fact. For I know, it’s just a matter of time. The simple funda should be like, why criticize when you can’t praise the good in them. Accept and love your people as they are and for what they are.

{ P.S - There is no such things as Good or Bad either. I have used these two words only to explain the differences that we often measure in balance scale of what is good or what's not.)

Lots of Love

Dancing Fairy

It was in 1998 @10 Jan, a friend’s birthday party, one film, one song and one signature step that was easy and  fun. So that was the moment out of many that made me feel that I can dance. I used to copy all the steps I saw on the television and practiced them till the point of perfection. Every time a new film’s music (has to be my favorite) got release, I went out to the music store and bought the cassettes and danced on the tunes alone at home. So you can say, I was much into bollywood dancing.


On my first day of “Jazz” , my instructor on seeing my performance and the way I easily picked up the steps , made out that I have been into dancing though never had such professional training before. He asked me ,”What’s dance according to you ? ” that made me think what really it means to me. So decided to write on it.
If you just hold your breath for a second , close your eyes and think about that one thing without which your life is incomplete, you might think of a person, music, sports etc. but for me it’s dance.  Dance is an expression for me. Dance is the medium that connects me to myself and my soul. I feel like in heaven when I am dancing and after dance. I am like lost when I am on the floor. It gives me a sense of satisfaction and keeps me happy. Dancing is a rhythmic bodily movements on the beats  of the music. Infact I feel that music and dance are made for each other. They say in life you should be passionate and for me that passion comes from dance. When I do nothing , I am dancing. It’s a kinda rejuvenation that keeps me alive, literally.
Above all , I believe that dance teaches you a way of living life. It tells you to flow on the rhythms of life’s moments. It motivates you to take care of yourself , your fitness. It generates endorphins, happy hormones, in your body that keeps your spirit smiling all day. It speaks the language of love and helps connecting you to yourself and with others. Dance asks you to love yourself so that the expressions flow freely out of you. It’s an art appreciated all over the world. Anyone can dance.
So the next time , you hear any music , just forget about the world and get lost in  yourself . Feel the music, feel the movements.
Mantra – Perfection comes with sheer perseverance and practice. Then be it dance or any other activity.
(On a funny note – Because I am lost when I dance, people around me thinks that I am drunk when I am actually not.  :p)
Signing Off.

There as such no rules to live a life. Still, the real fun is in living each and every moment to the fullest, at least to your best. I know it sounds so cliche but this is what I am thinking at the moment and not only thinking, infact doing while writing this blog. Life has always been my favourite subject. Few days back in an interview, I heard some one saying that "I am extracting maximum juice of my life". Then few days later, when I tried the same line to a friend, he immediately pointed out that it can happen only if you squeeze it. Squeeze here can be referred to giving out your 200 percent.

Elegant and Classy Wines!

"Wine is the most civilized thing in the world."
Ernest Hemingway.

If you are a starter, commence with Asti ( a sweet sparkling wine) suggested Magandeep Singh, the wine connoisseur.

I am not alcoholic , neither I have any intentions to be one. But I have always been very fascinated with the french wine culture.That's how I discovered my interest in wines.I had this feeling that the day I would get the chance to taste the wine, I would grab it instantly. And the day came sooner unexpectedly.On an official event, during the presentation on winetiquettes by MaganDeep Singh, we ( those who were present there including me) were asked to taste the wines ( although it was optional). How could i have missed it then, so I had them all : white wine, red wine and red sparkling wine. And believe me, it made me happy that I loved the experience.

So now I am pretty much sure that I love wines. I am going to learn and explore more about it.
Keep you updated on my newly discovered passion.

As King Edward VII once quoted on wine , "One not only drinks the wine, one smells it, observes it, tastes it, sips it and--one talks about it."
