You are always on my mind!!!

Hiya frens... bac again.. this time with a funny but interesting mail tat i received from one of my frens...



Felt it to be very intuitive and creative for someone who brought it out in this manner...

Have a look down.. wat i meant by the blog title....

Here it goes:



Had a bad day?

Do you feel alone and abandoned?

Are you convinced nobody cares about you?



Do you think nobody is there to bother your failures in life or in business?



Are you sure nobody sees your successes or failures?

And nobody cares if you live or die?



You are wrong!



There is somebody VERY interested in everything you do....

When everybody else quits on you...



We are INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT!!!



We never stop thinking of you!!



!!??? in the mind... i had a hearty laugh on this... hope u too had? lemme know.. :)



ciao!!!!

Ganpati Bappa Morya!!!

Ganesh chaturthi is one my fav festivals tat we celebrate.. i m feelin low this time tat i didn make it home this yr for the festivity...

I usually get excited the evening b4 the D'day... wen my mom is bac from the office.. we startup in the evening to go to shop for the Ganesha himself.. :)

Yep.. we chk out various idol-makers on the roadside in our locality.. to get the best looking and featured Ganesh idol for our home.. and then comes the hunt for his umbrella..

as a matter of fact.. i used to be more excited abt the umbrella than the God himself.. i hv always wanted to buy the best umbrella.. beautiful... colorful.. retractable.. bigger.. and mom used to be never ready to pay more for it...

after little tantrums.. i get the one i needed.. i wanted mine to be the best amongst my neighbors umbrellas.. so tat they admire it wen they cum home to share delicacies or prasad (sweets.. )
[tis was sumthin secret i never revealed till date anywhere ;0 .. silly me.. ]

then comes the shopping for fruits.. varieties of them.. puffed rice.. a garland for Ganeshji to wear upon... red with black tipped beads for his eyes.... vegetables to cook for the lunch and other puja items....

then we go home and engage my dad to help us in cutting the veggies.. post dinner so tat mom is fast wit cookin in the morning....

i do the puja every yr.. so i get up early in the morn.. do the necessary chores and get heads up wit Ganesha.. [all thru the while.. the nose lingers wit the sweet smell of delicacies from the kitchen.. :) ]

once its done... i jus pounce upon mom.. food.. luncch.. lunch.. lunch..

after all this was wat i was lookin for in the festivity ;)

i love u ganesha..
Gives u Always Newer Energy, Spirit and Happiness.. - GANESH acronymed :)

Enjoy ur festive day.. i hope next yr i hv a gr8 one too... tata...

Little drops make mighty ocean....

Hey guys! As usual back with a bang for blogging.. this time too pretty late and long after... :)



My mind kept swinging around the subject for this blog for seriously good enuf time.. never jus felt the pang to come and key it down.. here i m today finally...



This time it is about some serious topic which all of us shud think about and also make an effort to wat best we can do abt it...



Not boring u long wit my preface.. let me jet start into the blog subject...



Number one is about being green..or goin green... or watever u wanna call it...this piece was an inspiration from my office washroom... i can hear the guffaws there (thinkin i hv gone mad...)



I amn't... honestly.. wat i wanna tel u is tat.. my office.. an MNC.. big corporate... has taken up a very special measure in our restrooms... in its own way of goin green!!



We have photo sensor lights in our washrooms... :) [wowie..]

They get switched on when it senses somebody moving under them... then every 5 mins they switch off..if they had not picked up any motion....

thus we are contributing to the world... by releasing less carbon using CFL lights .... plus consumin less power therby reducing our carbon footprint too...

second thing tat caught my mind.. is the cafeteria.. [definitely not for the food provided there.. :)]

its about the dishwash area.. [i can imagine the ? in ur mind]

a signboard has been place above the dishwash counter.. which displayes details on date.. amount of food wasted in kgs... the no. of persons in turn who cud have been fed with...

SIMPLY BRILLIANT!!!

jus imagine the amount of food we waste everyday knowingly or otherwise...

i hv made my mind from the day i hv observed this.. to help myself sensibly in buffets.. to order less or even to pack less so tat .. there is bare minimum food wastage personally...

this blog post is to emphasize u all my frens.. to think abt the same issue.. to pivot tis point in your grey matter.. [i m sure u all hv some.. nothin to offend.. :D]

LESS POWER WASTAGE... LESS FOOD N WATER WASTAGE...

i m reminded of one of my fav MJ songs now...

STOP LIVING N START EXISTING.. HEAL THE WORLD.. MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE...

how true?? we shud trigger a new life from now on with these points imbibed in us...

so one n all... ACT SMARTLY.. EAT SENSIBLY...

enjoyed reading the blog.. now go enjoy the MJ song as well.. soother ur nerves n catch up some good sleep... :)

catch u all soon wit some catchy subject for the next blog post..

until then adieu!!
