Association with some people for how ever small duration really makes you connect easily and make that interaction with them go into the collection of  happy memories when you look back..

What do you do when you find out people lying, or change the statement from what they had once agreed and you still need their association in some form to be continued..?

While it is painful to change as per the time and need cos we feel we would want to remain in the comfort zone of already known,   it also important to note that time is running fast..what we have now may not be present tomorrow.. adapting fast is important.

On being just an observer.. (1) Get 'lost' in woods..

I am but just an observer .. and love being that way..
So while I walk my way to the park where I go and do my morning walk, I have gathered series of observations, mundane it may seem to a reader but in a way inspired me , rejuvenated me such that I look forward for my morning walks and such other walks which make me grow healthier, better and more humane..

I will post series of very small write ups which relate to small observations and thoughts thereon, on viewing and perceiving them which were gathered during my morning walks..adjoining pictures in many to supplement..

The park is a wooded place in the midst of the throbbing and bustling city..
I love that feeling of getting 'lost' in the woods...
'lost' in my thoughts
these woods, sun-rays peeking through those branches, blades of grass filled with dew drops, birds and dogs doing their daily bit...those running legs.. inspiring me, probing me, challenging me..
'lost' and 'regained'
Lost again and regained , re-energized..
to take the challenges of the day..
day by day I would take.. treating life well as it comes..
to cherish what I say,
'get lost' in woods some day..

Feeling bad..can one do something..

Two incidences which makes me feel not so good ..

1) While travelling in  the lanes of my city on my two wheeler, I came across a cow munching a plastic bag..I tried to remove the plastic bag from its mouth and threw it away , though near by .. not sure if the cow again reached that plastic bag !!!

I like the traditional idea of keeping stone kundis(bins) for throwing waste food for roaming live stock which would come and eat it..Its such an efficient way to manage food waste..Zero waste - Zero methane emissions ( which otherwise if mixed with other waste which lands to land fills would have generated methane gas and thus Greenhouse gas emissions)
But with the change in lifestyle ( increasing apartments, increasing use of plastic bags for every form of waste collection, leaving livestock on  their own on roads by Bharwads ( traditionally the pastoralists)  to mend for their own food) I don't like the idea of throwing food waste in plastic bags..what could be done to find solutions for this changing lifestyle patterns?

2) At a different place and time, spotted a beggar picking up some food , from the stone kundi meant for food waste for roaming live stock as his meal !!
I am sure if he would have begged some one would have given him some thing to eat ! Not sure why he landed himself at that kundi meant for livestock!

Pondering over ... 

Lets live and let live!

Life's experiences and tests either sober you down as a person or make you more aggressive.. I have never understood what are the jihadi's fighting for? Some one somewhere due to various reasons may feel neglected and dejected.. but it depends on how they want to take that experience and mold themselves to be better for themselves or others. Revenge or enforcement may help neither! What is important is could you bend yourself a little? I know this is a broad statement and everything and every act that was done was circumstantial.. but can we live or leave a better world is not what we should strive for?

Lets live and let live!

I like sun and sunny days after days of dark skies!

Every life has a story to tell..

While watching a movie  "The lunch box" directed by Ritesh Batra, made me wonder how people long for a good friend or a companion to talk to their thoughts, some one who can lend an ear and listen to us our deep thoughts, some one who is just there when we want to.
How each of us has a story bottled up within ourselves to tell every day with the mundane of the things we face in life ..

In this fast moving world where no one has time to see, feel, experience emotions, where consumerism and money govern the way of life, why has it become so difficult to communicate our mundane or deepest thoughts?? Why is it that with the increasing age it is difficult to make new acquaintances who could go on to make as good friends?

With Ila and Saajan, the characters of the film, it was the error by the six sigma achieved dabba walas who mistakenly interchange the  lunchbox meant for Ila's husband to Mr Saajan, which got them to share their mundane things of life.. but do we always need incidences to get introduced to new acquaintances? How is it that over a period of time we start taking the other person for granted and forget that they have stories to tell when the other person was away earning?

Do we not need to halt each day to see whether in this fast paced world are we leaving the relation behind to achieve our monetary or professional goals?

Every life has a story to tell.. and in this world with the cacophony of those voices .. do we get a lending ear to hear our tale?

I feel ... if you don't respect thoughts and write them down immediately.. they run away ..float in the sky.. for some one else to notice and grabs it... !
