For some reason, once I stopped having English as a subject with exams and assignments in school, Only then I had and have this unbridled desire of reading more and more of good poetry and literature. It keeps me at peace with myself, for some reason, yet to find myself.
My passion still remains and I think there is more time before I start searching for the remains...
Something good that I have read lately,
"You Remain"
As a perfume doth remain
In the folds where it hath lain,
So the thought of you, remaining
Deeply folded in my brain,
Will not leave me; all things leave me;
You remain.
Other thoughts may come and go
Other moments I may know,
That shall waft me, in their going
As a breath blown to and fro;
Fragrant memories, fragrant memories
Come and Go.
Only thoughts of you remain
In my heart where they have lain-
Perfumed thoughts of you, remaining
A hid sweetness, in my brain.
Others leave me; all things leave me;
You remain.
By the British poet, Arthur Symons (1865-1945)

Forrest Gump...My turn to say "It's awesome!!!"
Forrest Gump! The number of times I have watched it, zillion. It's like one of those movies that I start uttering the dialogue while watching the movie. I think that it shows a Man's honesty, devotion masqueraded in stupidity. The shade of comedy eludes the message. But I am nerdy enough to get it:)
My favourites -->
Forrest Gump: Yes. Well, I-I don't know. Sometimes it would stop raining long enough for the stars to come out... and then it was nice. It was like just before the sun goes to bed down on the bayou. There was always a million sparkles on the water... like that mountain lake. It was so clear, Jenny, it looked like there were two skies one on top of the other. And then in the desert, when the sun comes up, I couldn't tell where heaven stopped and the earth began. It's so beautiful.
Jenny Curran: I wish I could've been there with you.
Forrest Gump: You were.
############################################################
Forrest: Jenny, I don't know if Momma was right or if, if it's Lieutenant Dan. I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze, but I, I think maybe it's both. Maybe both is happening at the same time. I miss you, Jenny. If there's anything you need, I won't be far away.

Jerry Seinfeld....What men want???!!!
One of THE funniest material of Jerry Seinfeld...HATS OFF to him....:)
Courtesy of Jerry Seinfeld......
I swear: I have absolutely no idea what women are thinking. I don't get it, okay? I--I--I admit! I--I'm not getting the signals. I am not getting it.
Women, they're so subtle. They're little--everything they do is sssubtle! [announcing] Men are not subtle! [regular voice] We are obvious. Women know what men want. Men know what men want. What do we want? We want Women. That's it!
It's the only thing we know for sure! It really is! We want women. How do we get them? [deep voice] "Oh, we don't know about that, we don't know."
The next step after that, we have no idea. This is why you see men honking car horns, yelling from construction sites--these are the best ideas we've had so far!
The Car Horn Honk. Is that the beauty? Have you seen men doing this?
What is this? The man is in the car. The woman, walks by the front of the car. He honks the--[makes long car horn noises]. This man: is out of ideas. How does this--[makes horn noise a few times, then shrugs]--"I don't think she likes me."
The amazing thing is that we still get women, don't we? Men--I mean, men are with women. You see men with women.
"How are men getting women," many people wonder.
Let me tell you a little bit about our organization:
Wherever women are--we have a man working on the situation right now. Now, he may not be our best maaan.. Okay? We have a lot of areas to cover, but someone from our staff is on the scene.
That's why I think men get frustrated when we see women reading articles, like, "Where to Meet Men."! We're here--we are everywhere! We're honkin' our horns to serve you better.

I wish....
Today morning, I was watching the CNN news room. I heard the same old news, a person of one sect killed by a gang of another sect. Once a great telugu poet quoted "Ye Desa Charitha Chusina Emunnadhi Garva Karanam, Sarva Manava Janatha Para Peedana Parayanam" (There is nothing to be proud of in any country/kingdom's history, Human Civilization has only been a scripture filled with harassing their fellow men.)
But this very day, I saw a man in the gym with an iron rod struck to his right leg and the right hand paralyzed. He neither could walk nor could stand but was trying to work out with a heart than the muscle. Once a wise man said, "Human Spirit can overrun any obstacle!" Yes, it is.
I would only wish that this spirit helps us to realize to strive for something better, BEFORE the stupidity of our self-destructive plague forces us to search for it in the lost world. I wish.....

Hot water Philosophy:)
Today, I wasn’t getting like hot-hot water in the shower and I suddenly realized how much I take so many small things that are not so small for granted. It's not just having a concern for someone/something inside, there is nothing wrong in putting them in words once in a while; to make them realize that you are still there. We have to emphasize that these not so small things are not disguised by the unreliable day-dreams.
Anyways, thats my 2 cents out of hot-water philosophy!:)

Is this True?
Stan: “Why would God let Kenny die, Chef? Why? Kenny’s my friend. Why can’t God take someone else’s friend?”
Chef: “Stan, sometimes God takes those closest to us, because it makes him feel better about himself. He is a very vengeful God, Stan. He’s all pissed off about something we did thousands of years ago. He just can’t get over it, so he doesn’t care who he takes. Children, puppies, it don’t matter to him, so long as it makes us sad. Do you understand?”
Stan: “But then, why does God give us anything to start with?”
Chef: “Well, look at it this way: if you want to make a baby cry, first you give it a lollipop. Then you take it away. If you never give it a lollipop to begin with, then you would have nothin’ to cry about. That’s like God, who gives us life and love and help just so that he can tear it all away and make us cry, so he can drink the sweet milk of our tears. You see, it’s our tears, Stan, that give God his great power.”
Stan: “I think I understand.”

Admit it.....
Is it so hard to admit, all you need is --
A shoulder to support,
A hand to hold,
A lap to lay,
All this only for some company...
Ask anyone who has no one...Tell me if they disagree!
Never miss out on people who make you feel better, laugh, share the sorrow...parents, friends, relatives, colleagues, authors....doesn't matter!
This might make you realize what you really need....
