Friday, February 14, 2014. Gurgaon. Down memory lane. From the eyes of a Chennaite! Torn between immense love and unbearable pain, I could never decide how I should have thought of moving to Gurgaon? I'll just tell my story and let you decide that, I guess. I am but a simple punjabi girl, born and brought up in Chennai. I was a Chennaite thru and thru and in some ways will always be.:) But Gurgaon is where I 'grew up'; it has brought me both my deepest happiness and strongest hurt. In those days, we had ...

So here goes. These are ten songs which stir/haunt/enliven my heart, in a truly strong manner. Go ahead, check them out yourself, see if they do to you, what they do to me. :). That would ma...

Monday, May 23, 2011. Peek into My Confused Mind. These last few weeks have been spent contemplating a name for this business. I have realized lots of shocking things about myself in this process. I'm naturally not happy with what I see inside and am trying to give myself a pep-talk or a "how-to-change-things? Perspective" I realize that I give better advice to people I love and somehow I'm not doing a great job on myself. Can't be answered with a "Do you really want to do it? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, August 12, 2011. The tears I shed, I forgive. The suffering and disappointments, I forgive. The betrayals and lies, I forgive. The slandering and scheming, I forgive. The hatred and persecution, I forgive. The punches that were given, I forgive. The shattered dreams, I forgive. The dead hopes, I forgive. The disaffection and jealousy, I forgive. The indifference and ill will, I forgive. The injustice in the name of justice, I forgive. The anger and mistreatment, I forgive. I have not finished yet.

Sunday, September 26, 2010. Why do I blog? Writing, to me, is an extended form of what I feel. I write to clear my head. I write when something bothers me. And I write when I feel strongly about something I have seen or undergone. Private musings I put out there to see if people at large agree with my take on life! My world's complicated that way. good-bad. happy-sad. love-hate. are just words. just expressions. just feelings. How they say it? What makes them hurt others? Etc The psyche of a human mind- ...

Road Drama! | Astu Talks...
http://astutalks.blogspot.com/2014/02/road-drama.html
Wednesday, February 12, 2014. A guy driving a swift on my left banged the side of my car. He had wanted to come from my left and take a right! Now wait, isn't that against the driving rules-"Do not over take from the left? And guess what, instead of apologizing he and his oh-so-devoted-wife, started screaming and blaming me for not seeing "both" my rear view mirrors before turning right! Now I'm thinking- why are we women soooo protective of our husbands? Do we truly believe they are capable of no wrong?

Umang and I drove back from Agra like maniacs, 'coz I was bent on watching CWG Inaugaration Ceremony that I had forgotten to set for recording in our Tata Sky Plus. And I'm so glad we did it. Not only did I see a live example of India Shining, (weren't the fireworks just brilliant? I am going to be that viewer who was pleasantly surprised by the cracker-of-an ad launched by Indian Railways on a commercial break between the games! If wishes were horses.

Monday, February 27, 2012. Muzik Review: Gotye's Somebody I used to know. First thing that you notice about the song is the brilliant video. That in itself gets full points on creativity. :) Anybody who hasn't seen it yet, should just do so immediately on YouTube. Somebody That I Used To Know". Now and then I think of when we were together. Like when you said you felt so happy you could die. Told myself that you were right for me. But felt so lonely in your company. But you didn't have to cut me off.

Friday, June 13, 2014. Ready for a new life. As I ponder upon all the things in my head for so many days- a lot of thoughts come into my mind but most are just quotes I have heard and read over the years. I think of what I want to do going forward? How I'd like to live? The things I want to do. Places I want to travel. Passions I want to exercise and I automatically know the right answer to it is "what's stopping you? Nothing of me is original. I am the combined effort of everyone I've ever known. I bite...
