ThE nEw AiRtEl AdS!

Call me a sucker for mush....
The new Airtel ads just get to me in less than a second! Vidya Balan and Madhavan. What a phenomenal pair. And them being romantic over that! Makes everyone want their other half to be exactly like that! Over and above that, the crush I had on Madhavan as a girl doesn't help! The man smiles and I'm floored! Then, there he goes being the most romantic, head over heels in love man. Gosh I wish I had that! :)
Don't we all! Its funny how I am getting sick and tired of this we have a guy, we don't! Its what I want... or oohh ohh nope it ain't! I think its just better to be living in the world of fantasy. Its much easier and workable!
Anyway, back to the reason for writing. The cuteness of the ads, the hubby not leaving cause he's going to miss the wife. The hubby calling soo many times cause he misses her and calling to say good night! Anyone else in those ads would not have done justice to it the way these two do...
Not really relevant but I do love these ads. And they are soo worth the mention :)

Something for Arash....

This is a photo clicked by a friend of mine called Arash. The quote under the photo read, "Moon - Clouds - Aww, all I need is a poem..."
So I volunteered to write him one. Little did I know I would have to work with some guidelines!
Arash asked me to come up with a poem using the following words.. MEHDI BABA, MOON, CLOUDS, NIGHT, THE WIFE & SUBLIME. This is what I came up with in 15 minutes!! LOL I find it a bit a of a laugh myself!

Its such a bright night,
Even though there isn't a star in sight,
As the coulds keep them hidden,
Along with the moon that's so smitten with the sky's sublime beauty!
Enjoying this scenic view,
Are Mehdi Baba and the wife,
Sitting hand in hand,
Thinking of how much more they can stand,
Of this totally cheesy yet gorgeous sight,
And with that thought they call it a night!

Two becoming one....

One needs to be happy no matter what time in their life.
Phases keep changing and one must accept those changes and happily move on living their life.
Here are a few words I wish to express!

When two decide to become one,
It takes time,
It takes love,
It takes trust,
It takes commitment,
It takes effort,
It takes understanding,
It takes communication,
It takes work.
AS they say you clap with two hands not one. That phase of becoming one and understanding one has to be both sided. The things I've mentioned above need to all be both sided. I repeat, As they say, you clap with two hands not one.
As time goes by one needs to realise its not just 'ME'. Its 'US'. Once this realization is made and acknowledged its the best thing in the world. One knows that they are no longer alone. That's the best feeling in the world if you ask me. Someone to lean on, someone to be with, someone to live life with, the good and the bad.

Have you found your someone to lean on? Or you still trying to make sure? Either way, make sure you give it your best shot. Roll up your sleeves, kick away the slack. Make the effort to make that other person feel just that little bit special. IT goes a LONG way. If nothing else do it for everyone every now and then. Make them happy. All you get in return is good thoughts, wishes and blessings! :)
Here's wishing all of you out there good luck in finding your other half to become one.

Why...

Why does it happen...
That we go through certain phases in life...
Even once we've crossed and passed them...
They come back to haunt us...
I've had the most amazing time...
I've been hurt...
I've hurt myself...
I've been blamed for someone else's grief...
Yet I don't blame anyone for mine...
Why is it so hard to behave like adults...
Why can't the others see the brighter light?
Why is it that its soo hard for things to go back to how they were...
Why... maybe because its not in my stars...
Why do you blame me when you agreed with me...
Why do you run away from me...
Why is it soo hard...
Then again... Why is it so hard for me to understand...
Why is it so hard to fully let go...
Why do I still see some hope someday...
Why can't I let go...
Of a few facts and things I might want...
I've moved on in life...
Yet I see things the way I want...
I know which might not always be possible...
But I keep trying to see if things may my way...
Why they ask.... To which I say...
Why not?

Just....

With the good comes the bad,
With the happy comes the sad,
With the light comes the dark,
Mixed emotion with every spark.

Its how we feel,
Its what we do,
Its unreal how its me,
And all of you.

I Love You

Here's something I wrote for a few very very good friends of mine!

These three words hold soo much joy in ones life.
We tend to ignore this when we really should cherish it every time we hear it.
I have my aunt's 5 year old who I am visiting right now. Spending some time with him, reading him a book before he sleeps and tucking him into bed with a kiss and a hug gives me my rewarding "I love you Rhea didi!"
Hearing those 5 words makes me melt every time without fail.

I have always believed in telling everyone what I feel. If its me missing them, or that I love them. I truly believe that it is one of the most important things. One must always know how they feel and make sure that their loved one's know how they feel about them.

Things that have happened in my life, good or bad and experiences that have happened with me. I can't go back in time and change them. Sometimes I really wish I could, believe me!
But even though I still feel that I've lead a great life and its all because of all of you!
You've all been a part of my life and made it what it is for me.
I love and cherish each and everyone of you!
MY life wouldn't have been the same without you!

So here's to never loosing you from my life and to tell you all how much I love you and how much you all mean to me!
Thank you for being a part of my life and being a part of me!

The Present* : Part 1

You came into my life,
When I needed you the most.
You stoood right by my side,
Even though I was lost.

You never gave up hope,
Even though the light was dim.

Where we started where we are,
I can't let it sink in.
How well we managed this far,
Is hard for me to pin.

All I know is that you came in,
And made such a place for yourself.
Here's to soo much more ahead,
For us to enjoy in good health!
:)

The past...!

Its truly strange...
Something I just can't get my head around...
One's life is going soo great...
One is happy... over the moon rather...
Things are going well in every aspect of life...
There are no regrets whatsoever...
Then why is it that we tend to go back to thinking and living in the past in our minds?
Why is it that we feel the need to think about the times we are trying to forget...
Even if the thoughts manage to creep in for a split second.. before you dismiss them...
What is the need for the thoughts to even creep in...

I guess we remember things for a reason.. I really don't know what the reasons are..but anyhow.. felt like penning this down!

OnE* Thank you!

I come and go,
To and fro,
There you are,
Right where I left you!

It seems like we're one,
No matter what,
How much time apart,
We still pick up at the place where we had begun.

Its been soo many years,
We kinda lost track,
But I still remember meeting you,
As though it was yesterday, not such a while back.

We influenced our lives so,
I never thought it would ever last,
But how through thick and thin,
We managed to share something people rarely can cast.

I thank you for being a part of my life,
One I can never replace,
Know that you're my priority,
And I better be the same ;)

People come and people go,
But I for one am sure,
When I need you you'll be there,
The same way I stand here for you, with the same feelings we share.

Once more!?!? Unreal!

The next morning we got up ... lazed around... had breakfast... ALO KA PARATHA...MAn how much better can this get :)
hehehehe
catching up, getting ready, eating breakfast.

Finally we decided to head out for a bit. Tanmay and I took off with a couple of his friends for a drive.
We were heading out to Taraunga but the weather really wasn't good. It was spitting as well so we decided to go a place called Mount Maunganui. Its a nice little place with nice beaches around. But there was no sun. It was grey, windy and cold!
The beaches and the sights were gorgeous but it was freezing cold by my standards!

On our way there.. WE stopped at hobbiton for a coffee and muffin! :D
Its where lord of the rings was shot. I didn't want to go in and have a look at the little houses. Its all private property. Its basically a drive through all other people's property! I was happy to be there in the open fields sitting with friends and enjoying my hot choco!

By the time we came back it was getting to be a bit past 8 I think. We had to drop off the friends and go catch up with Tan's parents at one of their friends houses.
I walked in and it was as though I was someone they were waiting for and knew!
Everyone seemed to know me! :) IT was such a nice and warm welcome! It was lovely. It was an enjoyable evening at their house which wrapped up early. Reasonably!
Then Tan and Sam and myself went to Sam's house for a bit. Caught up and then Tan and I retired for the day.
By that I mean came home and caught up.. again! :)

The nest day.. did a few things with the family and then headed off to Auckland after lunch. We had to be back to attend a friends haldi ceremony.
I'm here all the way in NZ travelling from place to place.. and then I have to attend this wedding :D
Poor aunty went crazy tyring to look for things for Me! :)
Oh well its been fun. Meeting all of Tans friends was good. Again felt right at home. I know and have heard about all of them. Its putting the faces to the names and the names to the stories now :) ;)
