Memories revisted on this special day!

As a kid Gowri Puja and Ganesh Chaturthi used to be my favourite festival as am a great fan of Lord Ganesha ;). Keeping Ganesh-Gowri Idol at home.. Decorating the home (this being my most fun filled activity). Lots of good food by mum, the special being Kadbu(Modak),new dress and finally Visiting Pandals. I would go see Celabrations at friends' place.
Kids of all ages would come home to see our Ganesha at home, all of them together saying Shri Vidya Ganapathi ki Jai!!!!! I would then distribute some home made sweet to who ever comes home to visit the Lord. Visit Ganesh Temple in the evening and also Pandals where there would be Music Orchestra organized for which even my dad would have contributed some money.

This festive mood would go on for the entire month and I would completely love it.

But this year, the year which is 2011, am just happy that its a holiday, am at home without even visiting mum and sis after 100 Invitations from them, made quite a good meal for husband, took a nap of 4 hrs, lazed around reading a book  and have not stepped out of my home!Dint bother to buy a new dress coz I buy them almost every other week for no reason and i'm completely happy the way I spent my day.

Now this makes me wonder, am I bored of the celebrations or am I just growing old.. :):):)

Happy Gowri-Ganesh Chaturthi to all of you. Hope you all spent your day in your own unique way!

Positive Thinking!


A great person once said.. I don’t believe in luck I believe in ……. Fill the words u want. J

Ive realized with age that whatever we have achieved or not achieved is what we have attracted into our lives and there is nothing called Luck. I do not completely deny there is no luck but its mostly our hard work which brings in good fortune.

Your thoughts turn into reality. You think money, relation, marriage, status and all of this comes into your lives. For example, If you think of having a great marriage life U will surely have. But if u think u are having a bad marriage thats purely because you deserve to live ur thoughts. Sometimes when you think good and bad happens, we should just assume that whatever happens is for our betterment.

Point is you think positive and it happens and if you think any negative … then only negative happens. Ive always adored this book by name ‘The Secret’ by Rhonda Byrne and this is treated a Bible by people who want to attract good into their lives.

Some bad things has happened to me too and now Ive realized that its probably coz of my bad thinking. Getting over such things and considering the incidents and people as UNWANTED and moving on is smartness. I love to learn from my mistakes and that’s The Secret of Life!!

Its never easy to attract good all the time. But neither is it Impossible. Experiences teach great lessons and then one starts implementing these lessons. What we have thought yesterday is what is happening today. Hence never think negative and never get influenced by people around you! Attract only good into your lives.

This piece of gyan/write up is a mix of my personal experiences and the book ‘The Secret’.
Sorry for any unintentional plagiarism!!

Be Positive, think good, be good and let success be all yours.

CORRUPTION!

A letter by a female employee to her company security!

Hi Security team,

This is Anamika and I work with this company for 2 yrs.
I’m writing to you regarding the Mishap that happened with me today morning at the main gate of our office building right in front of the many securities of our company!

I arrived at the main gate in my car around 9:30 and right in front of our gate was a Milk Van blocking way from entering inside. While I was waiting for the vehicle to move, I had put the indicator On and was on to the extreme left and I heard a sudden dhud on my car. I got down to see it was an auto driver who banged my car from backside and to top it all he staretd fighting with me saying I suddenly applied break and it was my mistake. I was taken aback by his behaviour and definietly couldnot expect any better from a auto driver. While I was arguing with him in a decent manner that it was his mistake a big group of autowalas gathered to support him and I was fighting it all alone. They snatched my keys away and were surrounded around my car not letting me get out and using all abusive words for no mistake of mine. It was the scariest experience and all this happened right in front of our office in front of the SECURITY GAURDS of our company and no one even came forward to sort out issues.They look into whether an employee displays an ID card or not and there ends their duties.

The whole country is fighting to stop corruption and there are some who are so insensitive to even come forward to support a girl being called the people who are meant to secure the campus and the employees.
I had to reach till the police station with my father to resort the matter.The police themselves behaved weird and sweetly told the auto guy that it was his mistake and tried to convince us to stop this matter right away.

All I’m trying to convey is
1>    why not work towards stopping these auto fellows from parking in front of our office and
2>    why not convey to entire employees not to get down in front of the main gate and to stop the autos a little away from main gate.
3>    Also putting up a notice about this incident on every floor of ours would keep the female employees aware who come on bike or car and am sure employees will stop getting down at the main gate from autos.


Its nothing new that the auto drivers are sometimes very cheap and rowdy types. Now what guarantee that they will not have my car number and try attack me again intentionally for the sole reason that I dint do any mistake.
 Now should I blame the security or the dirty auto walas of the the city or the educated crowd that I belong to.

Please let me know what action will the SECURITY take against this and stop this from happening to another female employee. Or should we stop getting on the roads with our personal vehicles.

This is one great chance to stop a little Crime or Corruption from our side.
I would like to see your positive reply.

For more details you may also call me on my extension.

Friends this is a true story and please let me know your opinion on what steps need to be taken to stop this kinda corruption Specially when its the WOMAN who is undergoing this!

No gain only Pain!!


I hope that writing more about pain doesnt attract some more of it into ones life.
I have been in pain last 32 hours to be precise. I have the worst pain possible. Probably nothing can hurt more than this. MIGRAINE. Only the ones who have it know it and I wish that not even an enemy should get this.
I can hardly speak.. I hate light.. I hate anything loud around.. cant sleep, I have to sit up all night all day and I just cant move my body and my mind goes completely blank. I almost witness what death is when I have a migraine. When in pain I just thought nothing matters no one matters.. I just want to get back to normal health. I feel I dont care if no one loves me I dont care if I have a job or not I dont want anything I will not desire for anything but please relieve me of this pain.
I have felt that Migrain is worse than labour pain. Labour is just one time and migrain is not. Its been a ghost in my life which probably will never die.
I just want to be out of it permanently.. :(:(:( If I see God and he grants me a wish, I wouldnt ask for a wand or for a magic mask I will just ask him to take away my Migraine.. Coz pains are just so painful!!

Feeling so good that for today am out of this pain..
Signing off with no pains and all SMILES.
