*AJEEB DAASTAAN HAI YEH*


WELCOME TO THE WEIRD WORLD!
This is no world different from the places where you live. It is at no distance…no time span away…it is here! Right here..where we stay…
“ajeeb duniya aur iske ajeeb log” I’m sure you haven’t heard this phrase for the first time in your life…
But here I’ll share my observations of this AJEEB DUNIYA AUR ISKE AJEEB LOG!
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->We want to be the richest, slog hard for it…so that we don’t have to compromise for big & small wants! But I reality the compromises, the adjustments become the joy of life.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->We always enjoy travelling in a bus/train/auto/bike…but a drive back home in the best of the cars is still what we strive for.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Roadside paani puri is always delicious, but we still wish to go out for a 5star dinner.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Compromising with monthly budgets & making ends meet is such a new experience every month & yet we hope for the time when we won’t have to look into our expense budgets.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Whats shopping without bargaining…as long as it looks good…GUCCI or GUCHHI remain the same! Yet we are soo brand feverish!

Examples were few! But made sense, true?
Living life was never earning money! But in this over glammed, freaked out, the real dikhave ki duniya…are we losing out on ourselves?
Sometimes we fail to realize what makes us happy, what we want & we run behind what everyone terms as the the ULTIMATE KISMAT KI CHABI! THE KEY TO ALL SOLUTIONS…MONEY
*AJEEB DAASTAAN HAI YEH*

Insaan ki asli khubi to hamesha se rahi hai ki jo hai, jitna hai utne mein bhi kuch naya kar jaate hai, ek naya utsaah ek nai khushi le aate hai!
 par ab kya hua?
khud hi khud se dhokha kha gaye?
 


WARNING:
Don’t mix money with happiness! Illusions can be dangerous!!!

Gossip Girls


(The She Thing)

Gossip is the most easily associable 'she phenomena'. It’s like a fire that spreads...& it’s just never ending :) when it comes to women & gossip there's simply no boundary, no barrier & no wall that can kill this bonding! Any part of the country...from Kashmir to Kanyakumari...from Assam to Kutchh...any part of the world...from America to Japan...talk about a women being shy or hesitant but She'z ever ready to open her mouth to GOSSIp! What's happening with the neighbours & even what's happening with the strangers...women just can’t stop discussing. It’s like a stomach pain which can only be cured by blurting out the latest wasted events & analyzing their effects...if's & but's & relations & entanglements...& every impossible relations with the most irrelevant stances!
Don't overjudge me as a sexist...i’m a female too!
But lemme give you a live example..
"on my way to agra from delhi on board of the Bhopal Shatabdi my seat landed across three Punjabans, 2 women & a girl from neo rich families, society conscious enough who seem to have landed from the many many bollywood films like the bride & prejudice, bend it like beckham (with a well dressed sophisticated look)
We exchanged looks...nothing in particular! (no warmth & no grudges)
They were long engrossed in their gossip sessions concerning mutual friends & relatives & the unending cosmetic problems...(*tough job* eh! ) while my mum & I were keenly reading through the half a dozen newspapers that lay untouched on the table (versatility to the edges). Amidst the opposite activities across the tables my mum whispered in my ear, these are those Filmy kinda so called sophisticated Punjabans who love gossiping & spending their husbands earnings. I thought that this point hardly mattered, & chose to ignore the kind of biased comment. Ultimately their gossip seemed to be out of our minds.

But then all of a sudden I realised a sense of stiffness in the air when the tea set was served. Being a coffee-holic I requested for a coffee instead, a li'l after their daughter did. Her aunt made her coffee. But there was a surprise whisper (loud enough for me to hear) when I poured my entire re.1 satchet of nescafe in the warm water served in the cup. The comment was- Usne to poora packet hi daal diya coffee ka; dekh Ab itni kadvi lagegi Ki pee hi nahi payegi!
*stunned* *mixed emotions*...
I was totally taken back...this was the OMG moment! Did they ever drink coffee?? Are they mad??
Empty minded I thought! But ya, one comment was strong enough to ignite the urge to comment something; if not on their faces at least to my mum! To add fuel my mum started talking to me in a very unnatural tone and in Marathi! That was it…I chose to ignore them; hoping they’d shut up! Dint respond back to my mum too…
& ultimately got into writing this small piece off blog just to share very acceptingly the gossip girl phrase that has been a long famous tradition!!!
And even as I continue to type this on my phone…all the three ladies sitting right across the table are making endless points and efforts to discuss out grave issues like which brand to choose for a certain cosmetic & who has the costlier one! Whose husband is better and how everything is ready at their disposal!
Is it life that has seen too much of them or is it they who have ignored much of life that exists around them?

May be this explains me why haven’t I heard of the GOSSIP GUYS!  ;)

As I’m a step away from uploading it, the scene of experience still makes me grin… hats off to all the women in the world who make the WORLD OF GOSSIP! J

“CAUGHT & TRAPPED”



Recently I was listening to a song, definitely not for the first time…but a line in the verse caught my verse definitely for the first time, one line with a meaning so deep!
“Hai jahaan ki tujhko khabar; par khudse hi hai tu bekhabar”
And so is definitely the case…
Petrol prices hiked again by rs.1.82
SRK celebrated his b’day in a grand style yesterday!
Mr. sushilkumar from Bihar is the first ever to win rs.5 cr on KBC
Your college hottie broke up with her boy friend.
There’s a new club in your area.
And everything else that’s happening lately…
You’re just soo well versed! Take a stop, be frank & clear & temme how happy are you today? Everything going well in your life? Why did you fight with your best friend?
In this media frenzy world, we have become smart people indeed! Well connected with the ways and events of this world we have already begun to disconnect with ourselves, our thoughts, our feelings and what really goes on in our heart.

DISCONNECT TO RECONNECT!!!
Connect with yourself to connect with the world!
Caught  in the games of the world, trapped between feelings unknown!
