The Bong connection:

Born and brought up in Bengal...but I can count the days when I listened to RabindraSangeet happily..soundly..with closed eyes... Can count the days when I felt proud of being a bong ,could treasure the values..even when I understood them... Never wanted to marry a bengali lad...n am walking the way I wanted to..n today when am thousands of miles away from my homeland..am just pondering over thoughts..am relying on Youtube to take me back...to where I belong.. Today when I heard.."Ami banglai gaan gai"..it was in tears...but am just thoughtfull, how many back home would feel the same..maybe this is what the irony of being a Bong today is.. Na chahile jare paoa jae Tyagile ashe haate..ami diboshe she dhon haraechi Ami peyechi adharo raate.. Could Tagore fathom this??...Anyways, take care guys n lets pray that we all can reflect in time... P.S.Like they say you should come onsite once to understand the values offshore..I say the same,but only the synopsis is different.

Basic Instinct ..3

I dunno...maybe it's really crap that am writing..or is it just for the sake for writing something new?? Or do I write to solve the defects..again that stupid feel good factor playing...huh!!! More life..more tears...more love...that's all one requires to say that it's going fine... I don't understand..if the prime idea in life has become so concentric to serve ourselves only..how would you be able to breathe after a few years?? I mean, are we all going straight?? If not converging, let's not be just the opposite and lose the compass!! I know that am not so matured to understand how to talk to people, to UNDERSTAND what people's TALK means... I don't understand that being a human is so inhuman at several points...Why we like sad songs? why is love at tears even when it's going strong? why u cry when u r happy?? Why, do we commit the same mistake of working for the wrong people just for money?? Why we have started to believe that money is the sole backbo

Kar Salaam....

Then there was life in a Metro...and to be precise, everything was available...and you know how confused one gets if so much is there in front of you and you "think" you don't have time... There is love, success, duty; ego n class to maintain; fun,money n love to make; luxury to do,friends n family to have,dreams to achieve and all in just a lifetime. Yeah, and it's not a morning walk..it is a race. And the moments just fly by.... Hats off to Anurag Basu to make it so well crafted and capture it all.So be it chauvanism, coupling of buffoonism and intelligence, coupling of sacrifice and self-indulgence,loneliness in a crowd , unpredictibilty, happy-go-lucky creatures, losers, achievers, finders(!!....hope u guys can map it all) ,this big a combo can only be possble in a Metro... And the songs...Band Metro is awesome, they just made the perfect framework...maybe the songs put one after the another could say it all... "kyun zindagi se ho shikava gila yeh hasti hai r

Impulsive...N that's it...

Is it the thought that matters??? Well, this one came as a result of seeing some old snaps.Of Vietnam war, a few coups, Iraq war, Somalia n the very first instances of racism.I really dont understand , that why do we at all react to these if its just going to be for the time being..."Oh! how come 'People' are so fiendish??how do they do this to a fellow human"?? Hello!!! why are u bothered...r u going to make any difference? R u going to burn urself protesting against government laws, deaths caused by war n corruption?...r u?Or else ,r u even going to do as simple a thing as donating money for a noble cause...hey why/how come I'll do that...there's corruption in between..the money will never reach the targeted so called poor fortuned!!... One of the snaps shows a missionary holding the hand of a "going to die Somalian kid"...It felt like God is holding ET's hand!!! Others were of Refugees being killed in War, mother pleading to stone-faced soldi

One world...self-centered...must be!!!

How does it feel to cry...extremely satisfying:-) How does it feel to laugh...blissfull . We all learn in life to be giving, not to be "selfish",to be happy in others happiness n be with the one in despair...this is so very true that doing all these we satisfy ourselves,our conscience,our ego,our hearts are fulfilled...maybe the other's too..but at the end of the episode "I" am the one feeling good:))))....N on "first" thoughts, that is why I did all those!! Sometimes I feel so confused of life...So many people...so many lives...some happy...many others sad..just cause their lives are relatively not better off than the others.We talk of rat race???...Now?? well our entire foundation of living was based on that...we had to struggle for existing...now we struggle for being rich..or in other words, we call it being happy...Yes it is!!! Let's not play with words..let's not play with each other...I might sound ultra-sarcastic...sorry for that...it p
