Bye bye 2005.

Today is the last working day of this year. Office closed early today, at 5:30 hrs. But I am still sitting on the chair in front of a computer in my office writing one useless blog. Well, it was due to some pending work which needs to finish today itself.

And its finished now. I am free. I can go.

So better call it a day, infact a year.

Signing off from 2005.

Will be back in 2006.

Yahoo messenger

I guess, the very name of Yahoo is getting synonymous with the internet. No internet savvy can deny that. So I don't see the need to explain about the services offered by the yahoo messenger. I can say that yahoo messenger is the best IM service offered till date, atleast for me. In some distant past I used to like MSN messenger as well, but most of my friends are not using this; so I failed to carry out my interest in it any further.

Now you will ask, what made me write about it. The thing is, recently YM has developed some problems in

24 x 7 News channels

I am writing this particular blog just because I freaked out when I saw this news coverage on some channel which is trying real hard to fill the slots in its 24 x 7 non stop service.

It was a news involving the biggest star of the millennium, none other than Amitabh Bacchan. AB has been suffering from some bad health for last one month or so. No, I didn't gross out due the extensive coverage of his hospital stay on the mass media. He is having such a stature that this type of things bound to happen.

This particular news was related to his visit to TIRUPATI temple alongwith his family, after he was released from the hospital. And the direct correspondent of the esteemed news channel was giving the live coverage of that, answering the following questions of his colleague present in the headquarters..

1. What is AB thinking while entering the temple premises.

2. What prayer he has offered there.

NOISE or MUSIC

Again today morning, it so happened that I got up early in the morning, switched the 7800 W Sony system on and put in one of my favorite CD. The music played by the system was very pleasant. This was a pretty classic collection of pop music.

Boxing day test match was going on in Melbourne. South Africa was fighting hard to establish its resurgent image in world cricket. On the other side Australian bowlers were trying hard to reclaim their lost supremacy in the world cricket. Nope I was not in Melbourne. I was just watching the match on the television relaxing on the sofa in the living room of our flat on the sixth floor of a tall building in Baroda; the volume of the TV was muted and Marvin Gaye was singing something on the music system.

Don’t worry if you have not heard about Marvin Gaye. You need not to know everybody on the earth. But he had sung one of my favorite songs, that’s how I know his name.

I can’t explain my feelings regarding the lyrics of this particular song, as I am very bad on expressing my true

The butterfly effect

Few days back, I was having a little gab with one of my elderly colleague. We have discussed something regarding the power of imagination. Everybody is having different levels of imagination. But in order to feel happy, to feel meaningful, you have to imagine, you have to give colors to every dimension of you thoughts. And you should also try to materialize those imaginations, whenever possible. 

Coming to the point, try to imagine, a white piece of paper that has a sketch of a butterfly. Five different people were given ten different color crayons each and were asked to color the butterfly. 

It’s almost certain that you get five entirely different butterflies at the end. Some individuals may have imagined the colorful butterfly, even before starting the painting assignment. Some others may start by using their favorite color and follow it up with the best match afterwards. Some others may color their last memory of a butterfly while some of them have not even started. So you can see how different people are from each other.

Let's get started.

Why do people do certain things and not other things, why they like one particular person and not other, have you ever tried to find an answer to this question? Why people are happy sometime and not so happy on other times. Have you ever tried?

Why do people live? There has to be some reason. Everybody has his own reasons, which are entirely different from each others. That’s precisely what makes the people so different after being constituted by the similar type of bones, nose, ear, mouth and other stuff. Okay, I agree that there are some differences in the color, height or texture of the people, but it’s the reason or aim of the life which makes all the other differences. So everybody should try to explore the very reason, why he is living in this beautiful world or this ugly world.

When you say nothing at all.

Have you ever wonder, what the significance of the language in our life is. The actual meaning of language is perceived differently by various people. But the dictionary meaning of the word is “A systematic means of communicating by the use of sounds or conventional symbols” or “The cognitive processes involved in producing and understanding linguistic communication”.

It’s the very language which separates the human kind from the other species. That’s why first the language was developed and then came the civilizations followed by the culture. Language has been the starting tool which has been used for the development of the history of the mankind. I wonder what was the first language spoken on the earth was.

People say that the very first tool used for the communication was the human emotions. Human emotions somehow are related with the different lines on the human face. Just by looking on the face, anybody can guess what is the state of mind of that particular person at that particular instant. Weather it is joy, happiness, ecstasy, wonder or it is sadness, tension, whatever it is, the very face of that person speaks of his feelings.

Sometimes you will be surrounded by lots of people, lots of loud voices, but you may not be getting a single word what the public wants to convey. But at many instances you understand whole world of feelings or emotion, without hearing a single word from a person in front of him. Yes it happens, when a child smiles in front of a mother and similar type of selfless relationships. So here it goes, what a song !!!!.

It's amazing
How you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may, I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

And after that, one of my favorite lyrics

The smile on your face
Lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes, saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says, you'll catch me whenever I fall

You say it best
When you say Nothing at all.

I N I

These words are not the initials of some ordinary association or institutes. I heard somewhere that Government is using this word as a very important category of institutes. INI refers to the Institutes of National Importance. Some innovative people explain INI as Institutes NOT Important. Height of ridiculous imagination.

It brings to my mind another crazy one, about my school. It was named PTPS school, whom some miscreants choose to expand as Pagla Teacher Pagla Student.

So is there any point in writing this stuff on this dashboard. Nope, I guess. See the randomness..

I am back.

After all this is not the only thing where I am showing this much of inconsistency. I had also started writing diary sometime back, but can't remember the last time I have written something in the diary. So this time I’ll try to be little bit more consistent.

As in my previous post also, I am not sure, on what topic I should write and what should I write. So another random one….

There was a humanities course in my undergraduate studies, named effective communication. In that particular course, our professor tried to teach us so many things, but the only line I remember now goes like .. That’s ridiculous, you can’t say like that :). See how random it can get :)

Lets complete a small assignment as it’s my office from where I am trying to blog. So, will write more next time..

No rose, no diamond ring

Hi folks, this is the first time I am writing here. A cool blog, which I have read today morning, made me share some of my thoughts with you.

Right now, sitting in the office in the closing hours of the day, I am trying to write something. One thing which comes to mind  is little bit weird  And its because, today I recieved a mail containing a photograph having the following caption,

No rose, no diamond ring, but if this is not love, what is love?
