My world My life

What to do when all you need is an escape from the world? I mean the "world" and not just the people around you or the workplace! While seated in the room, with a french window spanning over the beautiful view of CST, in the dim light of those yellow fairy lights, with Coke studio playing in the background, eating french fries and drinking Coke, i still wonder what could be a better hideout? Somehow i was successful in minimizing the human interactions to phone (family calls, you know), and a couple of interactions with the food delivery guy, wondering was it enough? With an overexciting year coming to end, a year filled with all sorts of possible social events, and outings, am, still looking for that one weekend where I could be with only myself! Last week, around Christmas, met a friend, who suggested to take a week off, while i was cribbing about "I need a shut down". For a moment, i thought she just spoke my mind, when she explained, a week off from everyon...

It seems like ages that I wrote something, except for business emails or official documents. Ahh, was it really the busyness or was I trying to escape from writing something, since now a lot of people have access to this place? As usual, I don't have an answer to these questions. It's that time of year, for which I used to wish that the calendar skips a couple of days, alas that doesn't happen. I always wondered why am I the way I am. When people count days to their birthday, I just wish the calendar to skip this one day, or just want the day to pass by as normal as it can. And in order to avoid anything and everything, had started taking trips around my birthday. And as always, have so many sweet people and friends around me, who want to make it a special for me. People whom it's difficult to say no to, not because they are like that, but, yeah the yes will bring that smile on their faces.  I could never figure out the reason behind these things. Or is that thi...

On a summer afternoon, I was deep asleep and suddenly my phone rang. I received the call, but couldn't hear a single word. For a few seconds, I thought it was a dream. Later on, realized it was a real call. Called back only to hear that chirpy voice, that makes everything straight in my life! (okay before you start wondering whose voice is this, it was my Angel!). So it was a call from my Angel. It was one of those days when we had a meaningful conversation. A day, when we had our normal chat, as deep as our relationship. I love speaking with her, as every time we talk, it strikes a chord with my heart, and triggers some thinking. I don't know how, but she knows how to touch that thought which I have been keeping aside from acknowledging (and I do not tell her this during the discussion). She gets to know this either by a text or an email or a post here. Old habits seldom die! Surprisingly, she always knows what's bothering me, and what's in my heart, despite not...

Wow! Completed 2 years in this city of dreams. Looking back, i realize that these 720 days went by in a blink. Well, it's time to run. Hopefully will be back soon! Cheers Khushi

Whenever i look back on life, on the last 15 years, I realize, there has been a roller coaster ride for a personality of someone like me, and of course for people around me. That's confusing, right? okay.. here we go. The changes have been like .. Introvert >> Unapologetically Social >> Extrovert >> Introvert >> Closed person >> Self obsessed >> Limited interactions >> Asocial! Phew, scary it is! What i mean is, i was an Introvert as a kid, who over the night transformed into an Unapologetically social being, an extrovert, and then over a time to an Introvert and a Closed person (shutting everyone off from the life) to a "self-obsessed" one to someone with very "limited interactions" to a completely Insane Asocial human being. Someone who has literally started deriving pleasure in declining every invite! Recently, a couple of friends (who have no interaction with each other) asked me a common question "Wh...

Writing has always been something to me like the meditation is for a lot of people today. It always gave me that space, which I had longed for. A place to share a piece of my inner self without any interruption or being judged. The very thought of penning down something here, makes me feel alive again. Alas, how could i stay away from it for so long? Still, I did! Maybe I was just scared of writing down something, which should have never been written! Or maybe I was trying to escape myself! Either way, not something to be bragged of! Here i am! Finally back! Feels like coming back to home, after a long journey. And the way you feel after getting back to home, tired of roaming around, looking for that solace, I am feeling right now. After moving to this city of dreams, i can say even I have started chasing the dreams! Just that my dreams are a little different than normal people. Generally, people dream of a big car, big home, amazing career or a world trip! And me, ...

My dear, I know that I have been ignoring you for past few months. I know you have been one of the best things, that happened to me in life, and still have always given a very low priority in life. You have always been there, a vent to my feelings, an ear to all my thoughts, some said some unsaid; have seen different aspects of life with my words, and been through all the ups and downs of life with me. You know all my wishes, all the wishlists, feelings, choices, and the bad patches of life, and accepted without any prejudice. You came to my life, this very day, around 11 years back, 5th November, 2006. During these 11 years, i have been visiting you, sometimes more than once a day, sometimes, once a few months. One thing which was consistant, was your presence. I knew, you are always there, how much irregular i may be in visiting you, but you will always be there, waiting for me with your arms open, and all ears to my thoughts. All said, and now a simple wish! Happy birthd...
