Does this  means Maturity should not be correlated to ones Age, i.e its not directly proportional. But then why often we do assume the opposite.. Why do we expect that person elder to you will be more mature….Why do we get surprised when expected maturity is not shown by someone higher in age count  for a circumstance and rather is perfectly showcased by someone way too younger.

This is completely subjective note and i may be wrong in assuming it to be generalized. Very often we do face situations where ones maturity plays a key role in handling it. And out of respect we expect the person with higher age count to react with maturity and feels disappointed if opposite happens..

According to me, one of the primary input for maturity are the learnings from experiences and age provides this primary input.How we react/use this primary input will mold ones maturity level and hence defines our persona. Benchmarking is tough in this case. The best judge for my maturity will be a person with whom i interact (which will be big array of different kinds of people: family, friends, relatives, colleagues, strangers, public, etc). The only way i can measure it is by taking a step back and think how am i gonna respond to a situation and in what manner. This instinct, as mentioned above, will be driven by my maturity and based on that i will react..

Possessing this very same maturity may make you realize to forgive the immaturity shown by person with higher age count and to just move on.. You cant control the actions of others but what we can control is how we gonna respond to their actions by our maturity…and thats what makes the whole difference !!!

What an entertaining match it was…Phew…simply outstanding and mind-blowing, hard to put it in words..(atleast for not-so-regular-cricket-fan-like-me)

Even though it was Sachin who was playin there, we all can personally feel his excitement and mental pressure watchin him on screen..May be thats the bonding or Magic what this guy has on the huge crowd of this country…Believe me , majority of us took time from work to watch it on-live  in office cafeteria, to cheer up in unison for this guy, to make his last few scores, to mark this feat of “200″.

Its commendable to reach at the top but it really needs potential and nerve to be consistent at the top through out.. According to me, in my memory from  living history, i can think of only 2 people as role model for it and they are none other than “Feddie aka Roger Federer” and “Master Blaster aka Sachin Tendulkar”… The 2 greats souls who i admire alot for their excellence, determination,discipline, solidarity,down-to-earth persona, emotions, fair sense-of-humor,simplicity and for being a good human Legend for millions of people in this world..

Sachin, Hats-Off-Dude…a standing ovation to you whole heartedly….It was simply your day and you gave one hell of a good entertainment to the country..History will speak for itself always for the registration of your  this feat today…

Master Blaster

Way to go Mate to lift the world cup for India,before you decide to bid adieu to Cricket…

Wondering how did this all happen..well, here is the story…(with ofcourse its permission )

It all started in the month of Feb 2009, when i was in real search for someone special..You know how it is when you are at the age of 25 and wanna move forward to have someone with you techinically …anyway, back to the point..yeah .. so i was in this search and i happen to meet Delliya*, who was smart, classy, good looking and was matching all my economical requirements.. days spent smooth with Delliya..and i was like quite happy to go ahead with D..

But alas,in a weeks time, i was introduced by my friend to Sonyia**..and boss.. ‘S’ was more impressive, good, sleek,intelligent, charming and..errr…..hot (pardon my language ),,,the one who can turn any head upon it…I spent some time or rather days with Sonyia making excuses from Delliya (for which D was not happy)..and my mind kinda got inclined to Sonyia..as after all it was the best in MS° clan..So, i broke up with Delliya and planned to finalize with Sonyia for new bonding.. Even though this was all happening, there was something really missing in it..something which people call True Love.. Anyway, i thought may be Sonyia is what is destined for me and i may find True Love in it as the day pass..

The date was scheduled and i was making preperation for our grand bonding.. Please note when all this was happening, i was in London and all the above incidents happened during my stay there.

For the preperation of the grand occasion, I was carrying out this shopping when all of a sudden one day i met Macy***..and i was like completely taken aback…It was the most beautiful,size-zero, fair, above par from anyone from its breed, definitely one of its kind, and certainly from Uptown..It was having a special glow which was catching eyes of all..Must say, I fell in Love with M and i felt for the first time the so called concept “Love at first sight” …

With some help of my friends, i managed to get some time to talk(as M’s family stays in coveted place in Regent Street)…Oh man…a real damsel, i must say…. kind in talking to me..for knowing abot me and in providing all the answers i was putting in front ..flaunts too in potraying skills which it well deserves in doing so..

Thats it.. i decided that Macy would be my love and i would be very happy to have my companionship with Macy…So with lovely break-up note to Sonyia(which was tough), i finally (and this time it was really final) i booked the date for March 1st week for my bonding with Macy…It was pretty expensive for the arrangements.. but hey every good thing does costs…Oh man,the wait was real tough and i was getting very restless.

And on March 10 2009, Macy was with me…at its best dress..wrapped up beautifully… Oh my god.. what a happiness.. i felt like most luckiest person in the world…

That was the whole narration of my love story ..abot me and my lovely love at first sight  ”***Apple Macbook Pro” aka Macy aka M

i still remember the day when it smiled at me asking my name at the time i was booting it for the first time…

i can write an essay on M’s features in comparison to its other competitors Delliya (or D read as *DELL Inspiron/Studio), Sonyia (or S nicked for **Sony Vaio) both loaded  with °MS-MicroSoft vista, but i wont as i dont have to…

Smiling Macy

Ofcourse i took permission from Macy in publishing this love story to the world…Macy was pretty excited about this idea…infact it helped me in putting this blog right using its spell checks,zoom and self alignment features (to name a few from its immense list of other kool features)

Oh i love u Macy,,, i really love you a lot.. (no doubt i dont have a real human GF )[Amended after i got engaged to real sweet gal on 3rd Feb 2010 ]

P.S. Pardon me if the expectation set by the title was misleading for the time spent by the reader..Infact , it was quite intentional he he he

Marine Drive

After around 2 years, i finally managed to make a visit to one of the most famous spots in Mumbai.. the Marine Drive…3 km long natural bay stretch in South Mumbai connecting Nariman Point and Malabar hill..also known as Queen’s Necklace for its splendid apperance of street lights resembling a string of pearls at night..

There has been always something special about this place..especially for me..for instance,,, sitting there for a couple of hours with family or with friends..seeing lots of people around who have come to enjoy the sight….listening to soothing tidal conversation…feeling the negative energies absorbed by massive salinity of sea…touch of humid breeze…watching the livelinesss of Mumbai city…witnessing different human emotions involved…and finally seeing the sun setting down marking the end of another big day…a splendid experience worth the time spent at this beautiful spot.

Being at this place after around 2 years , was indeed a great feeling for me..kinda of watching a retro flashback movie ..where everything from past linked to this place was coming up in-sequence in-mind..I can feel the breeze talking to me…can listen to sound of waves hitting the walls making a music of its own..My camera was doing its job for capturing the best part of this place.. its sunset, its long necklace stretch, the gathered people and of course its wealthy neighbourhood…The setting sun,as always, was the major attraction…and clean winner for best pic.. (put on this blog’s header theme)

Setting sun

Well, may be it is indeed true, that some places really gets attached to ones life..May be Mumbai and its famous Marine Drive is one of its kind for me….

Seems like long list of dilemma….THE very reasons.. which were sort of making me reluctant in getting into this blog habit..

So what made me to plunge …Tough to point out in specific..But i know the reason(atleast i think so)..and its….hmmm…well…its an urge, an urge to do something different,which was wandering in my mind, from past few days…something which is out-of-the-normal-routine-stuffs-i-do-on-a-day-to-day-basis….a feeling like “Its time” to make some changes….and i think To-Blog is good to start with (from the long list of to-do’s)….to share my thoughts,my experience and my views.. (now please dont ask the differences of each of these terms )  

With that spirit..am waiting for the time for its folds to open for me to write upon….or rather To-Blog(fingers crossed )
