This blog is a bird's eyeview of my life. Varying from Trekking Adventures, Rocking Satsangs, from Coffee Shops to college canteens fidgeting with fun and enthusiasm... learning and spreading the art of breath and the joy in smiling...... This is simply an UNWINDING of a few thoughts that are stuck in my mind.......!!!!!

Life's always a full circle, what goes around has to come around, so why not stop to enjoy the Pain and the Suffering that comes our way when we know that the time to drool in Joy and Happiness is just around the corner.......!!!!!!

A Complete 360 Degree

How i would open the fridge and sit next to it....
How i would pee in the shoes....
How i would get into the lifts...
How i spoke for the first time....
How i learned to walk....
How i walked my way to school
How i learned to say ABC...
How i learnt numbers.....
How i rode a bicycle.....
How i drove a car n bike....
How i acted in a play....
How i learnt travelling alone....
How i played cricket....
How i began learning to play the Violin...
How i began using the telephone....
How i began taking care of the fishes in the Fish tank....
How i learnt having food in the dining table....
How i learnt using the spoon....
How i had my first scoop of ice cream....
How i got into my first fight....
How i enjoyed driving sitting in my Dad's lap in the car....

and simply pretty much everything that i did for the first time in life.....

It was all simply so very well taken care of.....

Off late for some reason, mom just saw some concern in my eyes.....
Se came up to me and asked me as to what happened....

I told her, most of my friends have started working some place or the other whether they like it or not. I told her that i didn't want to rush myself into a job that i really don't wanna do. She listened to me very calmly and once i was done she casually replied

I have taken care of you for 26 long years...
ever since you were a tiny little kid.....
a few more months can never hurt me.....
You are my sweet heart is what she said... again

leaving me completely amazed.

She just displayed the true essence of how mother's love is.... I just felt so so happy to be her SON. I only had tears of gratitude and love. I wish i learn more on acceptance and love from her.

She just said always remember one thing,

"It never really matters how u start the race all that matters is how strongly you finish the race"

It is not that i am SAD or something but then i just suddenly happened to have some concern on that day as i got into a few discussions with a few friends.... and that was it..... PHEW

Smash the Butt

We have people who smoke all around us.... most of the times.....
The trouble is not with these jerks trying to be KOOL....
Living in and all around a cloud of Smoke..... Is the real trouble….
Passive smoking is the danger…..

If that is not enough trouble these jerks, after smoking have a habit of throwing the butt on road or off the balcony of their office or house after smoking, without even bothering to smash the butt. It happens when a smoker fling's the cigarette from a moving vehicle like an Auto, Taxi, Car, Train on most occasions. They are least bothered on how bad a risk it is, without even caring that it may hurt someone.

So what my friend Dewang Vora did was, in such situations and places where ever he saw a JERK flinging a Cigarette Butt of the window or balcony was to simply walk up to it and smashing the butt with his shoes right in front of the culprit with a smiling face. What happened there was he just kept his kool and went about smashing the butt just as if he was saving the society with a grinning smile on his face. This didn’t get him any immediate results what so ever. In fact people in his office and around his residence would also make fun of him by calling him names and stuff like that but over a period of time most of the smokers began to understand the gravity of the situation and as to what Dewang wanted to establish in their heads was very simple. This brought about a transformation in most Junk Heads that Dewang was least bothered on whether these guys were gonna live long or not but he was more keen on saving the lives of all the other innocent people and so the Smokers began to Smash their own Butts.

Dewang just simply showed enough courage and patience to make an effort to make these smokers realise the very dangers they cause. All that we needs to do is show these smokers a proper way on how not to kill others, now that they don’t wish to save themselves.

Most smokers over a period of time have even tried quitting smoking after understanding that it is nuisance factor that it is for one’s body.

If any of you guys wanna still convince smokers can simply make a few condolence cards and ask them which one would they prefer.

In case any one feels smoking is kool, then the video’s below will surely stir up your thoughts once and for all.

The Local Environment Quality Survey of 19,000 sites, commissioned by the Environment Department (Defra), showed that cigarette butts and other smoking rubbish was still the most widely-found litter, spotted at 78 per cent of sites adding to all the troubles caused by cigarettes.

Common Guys all we have to do is to keep Smashing BUTTS for a start in order to reduce the Passive dangers caused by Criminal Suicider's in these Smokers who kill themselves and also put the lives of all others in Grave Danger.
