a BIT of me!

I’m not GOOD

I know

But who are YOU

To say so

Have just a single life to LEAD

I’ll take CHANCES, make mistakes...

No regrets..can’t come BACK again this way

The world never stops commenting or blaming OTHERS

Getting used to IT

But what’s life when we can’t call it our OWN

Stupid decisions, blunders, making FOOL of self!

It’s all ABOUT being who you are

If you are BAD, they hate you

If you are good, you still are HATED

So why at all bother about THEY

Being JUDGED at every point is hell

Let THEM carry

As if about their scoring we CARE

Why to FOLLOW anyone

Be their SECOND

When there is a BRAND new ME

Just waiting to UNLEASH!

Call me rude, FILTHY, arrogant..

It’s ONLY what your mind has made it up for you!

Say im sweet, cute, PRETTY..

Again it’s your MIND

This time its being NICE to you!

So AS you see

I’m not here to PLEASE anyone

Watch your own PATH

Will be of more good THAN bad to you

Believe ME! :P

" fRiEnDsHiP wInE "

I still find you deep inside my heart.

Was it destiny’s foul play...?

Your fate or my luck...

I don’t know!

Things which happened make me wonder

Am I living your life or have I gifted you my breath

Religion, caste, creed...

Don’t know from where they cropped up!

Even when all have to make through a final exit.

Money, fame, popularity... they say.

Will be fun seeing someone taking them in his final package anyway!

We stop talking

We stop meeting

No emotions

No concerns

No more sharing

No more caring

But even after all this

There is an invisible connection binding…

Called…

“FRIENDSHIP”

PRINCE OF PAKISTAN

Ladies and gentleman…we present you the Prince of Pakistan who is presently residing in India at Arthur Road Jail in a specially built cell with high-security. He has turned into one of India's costliest prisoners. Till now, the Government has spent over 35 crores rupees for his safety.

Here are some of the Rights and privileges given to our Prince in jail.. 

• Pants without cords 
• Woolen blankets ( how about an air conditioner?? That’s a must in this hot weather right?)
• Pot, plate and aluminium mug ( this is agreeable)
• Mulaqat with relatives, friends (so that they help him in planning out his escape? )
• Read religious books, keep religious pictures.. (only religious eh?? ;) ) 
• Newspaper and books (well he should be aware what his people are doing in his absence,right!!)  
• Exercise in the open air (to make some more muscles :P ) 
• Tobacco (he doesn’t smoke though… poor fellow ;) )

Before getting into further details of the events which put him behind the bars, let’s first have sneak peak in his past life.

The Prince was born in Faridkot village in the  Punjab, Pakistan. His family includes his mom, dad and four siblings. His father makes a living selling dahi puri. ( this Prince must surely have a taste for all the spices!) .

Our Prince worked as a labourer in his early days. He left home after a fight with his father. He had asked for new clothes on Eid, but his father could not provide them, which made him angry. (such a mature guy I say, this the main reason for him being selected for the mission I guess)

He then became involved in petty crime with his friend, soon moving on to armed robbery. And later he joined the most dreaded military group of this world.

He is awarded a rare punishment for his deeds, he was handed capital punishment for killing 72 people and waging war against the state in the year 2008. But people of India aren’t really satisfied by this judgement .

Check out the reward which one among us Indians wish for this fellow.

“Hanging? That’s hardly brutal enough. It’s much too quick and easy. I suggest that the terrorist be tied to elephants and pulled by his limbs in four different directions while a colony of angry fire ants eat through his flesh as he is burned by a petrol-filled tyre wrapped around his chest and is forced to listen to the music of the Britney Spears or Himesh Reshmmaiya. Bystanders will be encouraged to throw stones and rotten bananas.” (anyone interested?? :P )

Some others opine that as these terrorists are violent, and so naturally they deserve the most violent punishment possible. We need to show them that we’re not afraid of them, and this means we’ve got to show them we can be just as merciless as they are. (if they throw rocks at you, throw back flowers at them, but see that they are in stoney pots :) )

Now let us hear what this Prince had to say, after all our country is democratic, even the most dreaded terrorist, killing machine to be more specific, is given a chance to defend himself. So this Prince told interrogators "it is about killing and getting killed and becoming famous." "Come, kill and die after a killing spree. By this, one will become famous and will also make Allah proud," is what the suspect said when police asked him what he understood about jihad.

 While it is reported that he told the police that he was trained to "kill to the last breath”. He is also quoted as saying "I have done right, I have no regrets". (oh yeah??)

When asked whether he knew any verses from the Quran that described jihad, he said he did not.. He shocked police through his readiness to switch loyalties now that he was apprehended. "If you give me regular meals and money I will do the same for you that I did for them," he said. ( Oh here we see a loophole in the training of the militants, even after the thorough brainwashing this jihadi hasn’t given up his worldly desires.. So all u people working in the name of your GOD be little more responsible, you just cannot let loose a person who isn’t having his basics right! :-| )

So this Pakistani Prince happens to be nothing but mere a play toy, which was used by the mean minded people living in a dream that their religion is Supreme of all. And here we see a member of their own group who happened to complete his mission in the name of that GOD, of whom he isn’t aware at all!!

Just one word I get for such  people.. “sick” to the core!! They need help, help from their very own GOD, so how about sending them all directly to their great ALMIGHTY! ( US Military force hearing this??)

In the end I guess we all know the name of this Prince from our beloved neighboring country. If you have any problem in making out, contact any of our fellow Indians (but only the true citizens aware of current affairs will be of help :P mind you! )

P.S : Wondering why I am calling this person as a PRINCE?? Well, when almost unknown Vivek Oberai can be called as Prince, then why not this famous guy ;)  (its different case that Vivek was so called just in flop movie. :P )

Dreams Vs Reality

"He is here.. He is here!". There was a lot of hush-hush and excitement among all of us, as the best EAMCET rank holder of our campus was coming to give us some tips for the upcoming EAMCET competitive test (medicine stream). It was the most crucial examination that mattered to any BiPC student of the state.

We all were looking at him with awe, wondering how he prepared for the test, what he ate, what he did which made his mind extra sharp, enabling him to bag the top state rank!

“Hello everyone...” he said. Our eyes were still fixed on him, without a single blink. He continued, “Don’t we all think that these competitive exams are the most crucial exams we ever gonna face? The turning points of our life? Once we are through it, then there is nothing which is going to stop us from becoming doctors?? Don’t we all think like this??”

“Yes..” we answered in union. “But we all are wrong here!” the ranker cleared.

There was an expression of surprise over our faces. “EAMCET is just an start, there is still a very long battle for us to fight. We can’t carry on MBBS stream relying on the ranks secured by us in these competitive exams. Only if you are determined enough to pursue this course you can continue in this field, because things take a very different turn from right here!” he concluded.

I was kind of puzzled that time, but only after entering the medical college did I understand what exactly he meant then.

Things are different here, very different. Huge syllabus, the books though simplified by efficient professional still don’t get into our brain after a minimum of  two readings. Just theoretical knowledge is of no great use in medical field, practical experience is what matters here. And as for theory, the books are always available for reference. Without the practical knowledge it’s like we are in middle of a vast ocean, in a boat, knowing everything about the boat, its principle of working, how it is manufactured etc. But we don’t know how to use the oars (the practical part). With the knowledge you have, you very well will be able to move the boat, but there will be no proper speed and orientation of the moving boat. In the same way a person expert in sailing the boat by his many practical efforts, if he completely ignores the theoretical knowledge associated with it, his boat will be moving but only aimless, he doesn’t know what the result of his expedition will be.

There are many occasions when we doubt our own capabilities (at least I do). But the zeal and passion with which we have entered this course keeps us moving. Every person is unique, we all know that. Thus each and every patient is unique with his/her own peculiarities. So regardless of how many cases we encounter, still there is something unknown and new to be discovered with each case.

It’s a strenuous job. No matter how much we give ourselves to this work, still there is lot to be done, many ailments to be treated, many patients to be cared. I don’t think anyone can carry on with this course unless they love their profession. Who are enthusiastic and dare enough to remain in this field even after the failures they encounter and some of the blunders they commit.

When it comes to pay, they say ‘doctors’ are here for public health but not to make their personal wealth! But don’t you think even these people have a family to support. From where do you think they should get the money to buy their princely rated foreign books in order to keep up with the latest advancements and treatment methods of the medical field? After putting in so much effort we just ask for a reasonable pay, for which they react as the present doctors are no longer next to GOD. Man!! Who wants to be a GOD when you still depend on your family for your expenses at the age when our counterparts of other fields earn 5-10 times more! Well this is a never ending topic, I better leave it right here. (I was referring to the stipend of the interns and PGs here)

Coming to family, it is the dream of many parents to see their child wearing the white apron and carrying a stethoscope. Once their kid gets into a medical college, they see their dream turning into reality. But for us it’s still a dream until we finally complete our course (1 + 1½ + 1 + 1 + 1 yrs). That is just for normal MBBS degree, at present PG is must, so 3 more years for that, a total of 8½ yrs for our dreams to become reality.

But these 8yrs the special attention we get from our relatives, friends, acquaintances and the hollow feeling we get even after completing loads and loads of books, turns out to be a passage through hell. I do agree that we medicos get more attention compared to others. I don’t actually like it, but somehow can’t avoid it either. May be it’s because of the position held by this profession in the society, after all it is said to be the ‘noblest’ profession.

Exams are not the real judging factors for the capabilities of any medico (I say this because by just scoring highest marks you don’t become the best doctor). But they do shake off the earth beneath us. Do visit our hostels during exam time to see the heights of tension. :P And the day of results, just like the day I am writing this post, is torturous. Huh! dunno how my results will turn out. But I do know that no matter if I pass or fail, even if I get a good percentage or not... I will never lose my hope, my passion and my zeal of pursuing and completing this course. And last but not the least I have faith in GOD and confidence in myself that someday..sooner or later, I will be a reasonably good doctor. Whose main criteria will be focused on public health (as the wealth department is taken care of by my dad at present and later it will be shifted on to my better half..he has no other option :p)

Wish me luck!! ;) 

Expectations!

So many expectations from so many people. Expectations are nothing but the opportunities we give others to either make us happy or to disappoint us.

However, ever wondered why do we give others so much authority that our happiness or sadness depends on them! Attitude matters here. By the attitude we keep the influence of other people on our life is decided. It is said that life is 10% what happens to us and 90% of how we react to it.

I do not want to include family into this other group of people, because success or failure, angry or sad they are always by our side, at least till the day we move out and live independently. However, that isn’t the case when it comes to the new relations we make out here on this planet. We keep expectations on others in turn make them expect something back from us. In addition, this goes on like a circle with no end. Major reason for ruining our peaceful and happy moments. Everyone is good to you until you expect nothing from them and you are good to them only until you fulfill their expectations!!

Why the hell should we expect anything from others? We are in charge of our own life. We will decide if we want to be happy or sad, angry or calm, moody or stable.

Why should we entirely depend on others to get our things done? We aren’t physically or mentally crimpled, neither is the other person any heavenly body. Taking help is ok, but completely depending on them is pre-planning to get disappointed.

Expectations from exams, situations, occasions. leave the same impact. When the future isn’t under anyone’s control, then its foolishness to build our expectations regarding that.

When we cannot guarantee what we are going to accomplish the very next day, how can we give a guarantee what others are going to do? That too not for themselves but for us!

I do not say that we should never ever have any expectations from others, because that is next to impossible. But we can limit them for the least number possible! A big favor we will do for ourself.Having self-expectations is also very tricky. Expecting things beyond our limits can push us into valley of depression if we fail at it. Expectations are like double-edged knife so not only when dealing with others, we have to be careful even with self-dealings.

So finally, the least expectations you keep on people and this life the happier you will be.

MAN-IFESTATION

I remember many years back, on the day of my parent’s 14^th wedding anniversary my grandparents were invited home. And that day I had a really special but a bit weird conversation with my grandpa.

So it started with a question put to me by my grandpa, which was something like this – “Did I actually know why I have been born in human form and not like any other form among millions of living creatures present on this planet??” I don’t know what made my grandpa ask such a question to a 12yr old. I did get puzzled hearing that, but I got an answer for that from him a while later. And that reply happened to cut down many questions which I would have had to face in the years to come.

Eat, Sleep and Reproduce. Three basic things required for the survival and existence of any kind of living form. We eat to survive, sleep to survive longer and reproduce so that forms like us continue the same. There isn’t anything unusual or special with these three processes, even the tiniest living creature you find any were around you will be carrying out this without their own knowledge. Then my grandpa asked is the human life really required when all you do is..eat..sleep!!You can even be a dog, rat, frog or even bacteria in that case.

Human life is to manifest our very own existence. We need to do something beyond the usual life functions. Man has been gifted with the most intelligent brain ever, with power of reasoning and discrimination. Our life should be worth of something..

We don’t  make our life great. None can actually do that. It’s just the normal things we do, which if good enough turn out to be known as something near to great.

Life isn’t just about surviving, it’s about living..and living your way. And your way here means nothing irrational but execution of humanity in the best possible way by us.

Doing things for self isn’t astray, but what life will that be when you look back and what you find is just you. What’s living when you weren’t the reason even for a single smile on other’s face. Doing something for our fellow beings, fellow creatures, fellow living forms, our country, our planet… gives some kind of immense satisfaction and it’s the real thing which gives meaning to our existence.

I was able to recollect those points very randomly. You may find it a bit messy, but it did affect my way of living. Removing barriers for my thoughts, concern, love…

And as I already said we are not here to make or do anything great. It’s just that when things are done with best effort and good intentions they automatically find a place in the outstanding deed list. The satisfaction which it brings along can even leave the noble prize or any such other award way behind.

And I don’t think there is anything wrong in giving meaning to our existence, at least trying for it...

Republic Day.

26th January..just like every other year, the whole nation celebrated the day our country became a 'REPUBLIC'. The reason and importance of celebrating this day may be forgotten (by many people like me) along with the school history text books we read.

"The present youth isn't dedicated or responsible towards the nation" has become a very common statement we get to hear these days. Even I felt that I belonged to the same genre until last few months back.

 Its altogether a different case when we speak of present youth. We haven't experienced the British slavery, so we don't actually realize the importance these "Independence and Republic" days hold. So its obvious that many of us aren't as enthusiastic about these national festivals as the people of that era are. Its more kind of holiday for most of us!

But this doesn't mean that the love we have for our NATION is less to anyone. We didn't get a chance to participate and experience the national spirit of the Independence era. To come to the point I don't think any Indian may be young, old or just a child will ever step back to give his best for his mother land. Its just that we have to take a proper action at proper time.

Waking up early in the morning and attending the flag hoisting ceremony doesn't itself prove our patriotism, its lot more than that. And not participating in these national festivals doesn't mean we aren't responsible towards our country!Being a bit bindaas does not imply that we are arrogant or that we are not serious about our carriers or our country..These topics are too complex to be judged by looking at few insignificant points.

JAGO INDIA JAGO! :P

P.S I know its way too late to write about republic day..but was busy with other stuff u see..could find some free time only now..and as they say its always better late than never..cheers!! :D

Forward Messages. Part II ;)

Very common.

Blah blah blah gud mrning...
Blah blah blah gud evening...
Blah blah blah gud nyt...


Few emotional, few funny, few sarcastic, few pjs, we come across different types of such forward messages. Even i enjoy reading them.
But sometimes its irksome that people have nothing of their own to share than forwarding those dumb messages!
Well, i do know that it is neither easy to frame such messages on own nor is it simple to type the entire thing using our own fingers! :p So most of us prefer sending stale ready messages than creating something new.

It is pretty ok to share them with someone who is in frequent touch, but it is a dejection to get such forward message from old friends or the new ones, from whom we long to hear something substantial than stupid dumb forward PJs!

Size and content of the messages doesn't really matter unless it is a self framed text! :D
It seriouslly gets you more attention..it does!
It just makes the other person realise that you have more time for them than just forwarding any other message present in your inbox, let it alone be super senti or super funny message.
And at occassions even a small ' hi ' can play the trick. ;)

In case you are the one who like to message just to get over that itchy sensation of your hands then don't strain yourself much,carry on with your forward messages. Your personal message may actually give a stroke to the reader. :p enjoy messaging! :D

And yeah reciprocation to your messages(personal) solely depends on the interest of the person to whom you are sending the message. :P
