Marriages....

Two of my cousins are getting married in the month of December.Pretty Cool huh,just days apart,two marriages in the family.Well,one of my cousins came to my home and was asking,when I was gonna get married?Did I have a Girl friend? and stuff like that.

That got me thinkin,as to why the heck do we get married?cos we fall in love?That would be a really lousy reason to lose one's bachelorhood!!We do know opposites attract,but that would be the same,until they have strength,after that the relationship shatters to a staggering stop.We need to be compatible mentally.cos once all the young blood runs out,we need to find something to talk about.Surely it ain't gonna be about cars and bikes.

Some common ground needs to be found.But still we find a lot of marriages heading down the road to divorce!! Why is it?Is it that,they are drained out of their young blood,or it is a marriage made in a fast food stand.People seem to misunderstand the concept of marriage,It is a agreement,which states,"blah blah blah....in time of need and sickness & blah blah blah".

The last line seems to be punch line,that gets deceived everytime a divorce is authorized.

China!!

I have been reading a lot about China,nowadays.The huge blow to its export in toys,due to lead found in the paint used on toys,and the collapse of some of the bridges,killing a lot of the people.

Adding more to that news,is the recent high power curtail on what the media can report!Check out the BBC article on this http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6992946.stm .It is pretty astounding that all major media players came up with the same headlines,accurate upto the location of the images.

Man oh Man,if this ain't dictatorship,I du not understand what is?Freedom of speech is our right,and it does not matter,on which soil we are born.We take it for granted,but some pay a very high price ,even their life for that right!!

Even the internet,where homeless roam free,are being targetted.They have the firewalls set,up in such a way that any one accessing any of the sites,that offend the chinese party or the government,or even the previous horrific,brutal history,they are blocked.

History is supposed to teach us,as how to live our future.We are not supposed to shy away from our past!! That only leads us,to our denial.

Have to go to Work.C u guys later.

My fnd & Life!!

I would just say,"If only I had thought about this previously!!It would have saved a lot of time for me....".Why does this have to happen to me?These are like some of the questions that I ask myself.

One of my friends has fallen in love...I mean literally head over heels in love with a girl.Pretty cool huh....For me it is really interesting,b cos now I get to monitor his moves and irritate him furthermore,that he has changed after getting a girl friend.

But still he does not seem reponsible??? Any ideas,I always assumed that once you have an obligation,automatically,you would get the responsibility also.But in this case am I Wrong?

I think it would become pretty clear,when he decides to break this to his parents,and I have decided,not to be in the near vicinity for about three months!!

I have to save my hide here!! No offence dude,if you are reading this...

off with my rambling...have to go to sleep.

Indian Independence 60 years and moving on......

It has been 60 years,since we had received Independence.What has changed since then? Have the population become tech savy?The majority speak for the country and they are still using Kerosene lamps.Are they reaping the benefits of OutSourcing.The new found gold is not reaching the common masses.

We as the computer engineers are exacerbating the situation with inflation.What the heck are we doing?We are increasing the cost of vegetables,house rent and so on ...the list goes on,bcos we are not bothered about the money,since we get a hike every year,else we would just jump companies.have you ever thought about the Bus drivers,or the people who clean the streets.Their monthly salary is equivalent to or lesser than our one day's B'day treat!!!"ONE DAY"

My Shoe costs more than their monthy family expenditure.

It really brings tears down my eyes to watch people on the street begging.I am talking about the real helpless and needy people.India is shining ,yeah but for them it seems like the heat is being concentrated by a magnifying glass to burn their life out of their bodies,"ANT BULLY".

I am not calling for a revolution here,or I am not asking for you to stop spending.It is our brow's sweat and we have to right to spend it the way we like.All I am asking is,just to think twice before throwing out the money.If all of us start to think before spending,the prices would automatically come down... It may take time,but it is something we could be part of.It does not take a mighty person to do this,all you need to have is a heart.

Closing my eyes does help me to forget all the torture temporarily,but that does not change the facts.What are you going to do to save India from its self made tragic lifestyle?
